Feng Tianyi wasn't sure if he heard his brother-in-law correctly, while Tang Moyu stared at her twin brother in confusion. Neither of them could understand what Zhang Jiren meant, and why he was telling them this. However, from the way Zhang Jiren sounded, it was obvious that this wasn't also easy for him to say. 

"I don't understand…" It was Tang Moyu who voiced their puzzlement. 

Zhang Jiren understood that it wouldn't be easy for them to understand what he was saying, given that he and Tang Moyu didn't know Feng Tianyi back then. 

"It's just what I said. The person, who was responsible for the car accident Feng Tianyi got involved in seven years ago, is none other than me," he repeated. 

Feng Tianyi finally had a gist of what his brother-in-law was talking about, and why Zhang Jiren was acting like this at the moment. For Zhang Jiren to come here under such circ.u.mstances, it was either something came up or he needed to tell Tang Moyu something important that couldn't wait any longer. 

"Why don't you tell us what happened from the start, so Moyu and I can understand you better," he suggested, before placing a hand on top of his wife's. 

Tang Moyu glanced at him and he gave her an assuring look. At times like this, she knew that she could rely on him—  but what about her twin brother? Since their father's death, Zhang Jiren didn't have anyone to rely on. 

Zhang Jiren's hand tightened on the tea cup in his hand. Ah, he really messed up this time, and no matter how much he apologized for it, what happened in the past could never be changed. 

"It started when I came back here after my long stay in Beijing. I was supposed to be back a year earlier, but Zhang Xianzhe asked me to clean up the mess his son left in Beijing. The moment I came back here, I realized I came back too late." He paused and glanced at his twin sister's impassive face. 

"I heard that my sister was humiliated by Feng Tianhua and has been forsaken by the Tang family to save themselves." He shut his eyes and the grip on his cup tightened. He really hated what Feng Tianhua did to his sister, and wanted to teach him a lesson so badly for bullying Tang Moyu. 

"I wanted to beat him into a pulp— teach him a lesson he would never forget after what he'd done to my sister." Just the mere thought of what Tang Moyu suffered because of Feng Tianhua was enough to make his blood boil with anger. 

No matter how many years had passed, he still couldn't forgive what Feng Tianhua did to her. There were several occasions when he had met the man while attending business conferences, but Zhang Jiren would always steer clear, not wanting to be in the same place as Feng Tianhua. 

Now that the world knew what kind of cheap woman he married, did Feng Tianhua finally realize how he wronged Tang Moyu? Did he regret choosing Xing Yiyue over the empress? 

The answers to these questions, Zhang Jiren didn't care to hear at all, because in his eyes, Feng Tianhua would never be worthy to become his brother-in-law.

"That bastard. Who did he think he was for treating Tang Moyu that way?" This time the anger and hatred on his eyes were seen by the couple in front of him. His anger was so strong; it surprised Tang Moyu to see him like this. 

"Did he really think he's worthy of my sister's hand? After all the things she had done to help him manage Feng Conglomerate, who gave him the right to kick Tang Moyu to the curb once he deemed her worthless?"

Her sister's pitiful state as she left the Tang Estate after being denied by her own family was the last time he'd seen Tang Moyu before she left the country with Li Meili. 

"I hate him. I really despise that man down to the core, but I hate myself even more for being a useless brother." The thoughts he kept on his own, Zhang Jiren finally let it show. 

"If only I came back a little earlier, she wouldn't have to suffer like that. Dad and I should have taken her back…" His voice trailed off, his gaze meeting Feng Tianyi. "I wanted to teach your little brother a lesson but I didn't know I made a crucial mistake," he confessed to his brother-in-law. 

Zhang Jiren didn't need to say more as Feng Tianyi and Tang Moyu understood what he was implying. To think that he was able to scheme like this against Feng Tianhua only for Feng Tianyi to suffer in the end, they were both lost for words. 

"I understand if you will hate me because of this." Zhang Jiren was really ashamed of what he'd done. "None of these would have happened if it weren't for what I've done in the past." 

How could he stay still and pretend that he was innocent when lives had been lost because of what he'd done? While it's true that he hated Feng Tianhua, he'd never expected that there would be collateral damages from his scheme. 

Zhang Jiren was aware of what could happen after his confession. Tang Moyu would hate him— blame him for hurting her husband and for losing Tang Beixuan in the revenge that should have been aimed at him instead. 

Once Li Meili found out the truth, he also knew the possibility that she might come to hate him too. He wouldn't be surprised if she demanded for them to divorce even before the two years of their contractual marriage was up. It would break his heart to let her go but he would respect her decision. 

"Dad warned me not to act recklessly. I really should have listened to him and reined in my anger. I shouldn't have let my anger cloud my mind." He admitted that he was truly the wrong one here. 

"I came here to clear things up and for Feng Tianyi not to blame himself for what happened. It was never his fault. The blame is on me."
