Dapeng looked at Dream with his scrunch-faced grin, which didn't seem feigned at all, but Dream, being extremely cautious in everything she did, never easily trusted anyone.
"Dream, may I ask you a question?"
"Of course."
"I heard from my sister that Tong is your father? Are you sure…"
Before Dapeng could finish, Dream interjected, "I am sure, and I hate Tong as much as you do."
Since the moment Dream was born, she was immediately thrown to Tong by her mother, her biological father.
At that time, Tong had completely fallen into disrepute and had even reached the point where he had to sell his properties to make ends meet.
His wife and children, fearing being implicated, took all the money and left.
How could Tong, in those circumstances, care for a newborn baby? Without hesitation, he abandoned her at the entrance of the imperial palace.
Had the Great Emperor not found her, Dream likely would not have lived to see today, having possibly frozen to death as an infant.
