Douluo Continent,
Heaven Dou Empire,
Purple Leaf Village.
(General POV)
This particular village is known for its purple flora. Grass, Tree leaves and flowers all were purple in colour. It sits on the edge of the Purple Leaf Forest, neighbouring the Nuoding City.
In the middle of the village, a small house can be found surrounded by purple trees.
This is the Village Head's House. His name is Ye Zhen. He lives with his wife Xia Dong-mei.
He has lived in this village ever since he could remember and has been the Head for the last 40 years.
One Night, as the elderly couple were getting ready for bed, there was a knock on the door.
Confused, as it was nearly midnight, he cautiously approached the door and called out, "Who is it?".
A voice he instantly recognised replied, "It's me father, Ye Meilian. I'm home!".
He was overjoyed and rushed to open the door while yelling to his wife, "Come quickly, it's MeiMei!". There he saw his daughter with a tired smile on her face. It had been years since they had seen her and it looked like she had been through hard times as the radiant smile she always had was nowhere to be seen.
"I missed you father!", cried Ye Meilian and hugged him.
"MeiMei! What happened?!" he exclaimed.
"Are you alright?".
"MeiMei is here?! Quickly let me look at her! Why haven't you brought her inside yet?", a voice called from behind him.
He stepped aside and ushered his daughter inside. After he closed the door, he turned to find the mother-daughter pair crying in each others arms.
They settled down after a while and she told them what happened. It seems she had intimate relations with a man and she found out she was pregnant. She informed the man in hopes he would take responsibility and provide for her and their child as she was and always had been Physically weak due to an unknown illness.
To her shock and disappointment, he wanted nothing to do with her and 'her child' as he called it. He simply gave her some money in a spatial ring and made her vow not to inform anyone about the child's origin as he feared what his clan would do if they found he had an illegitimate child.
Little did she know that he wanted another and didn't want to be associated with her, lest she ruin his chance.
The elderly couple were angry and sad that all this had happened with their daughter. But they were more worried when she said she wanted to have the baby. They all knew she would likely not survive long after the childbirth due to her illness.
But Ye Meilian did not budge. She would have her child even if she would only be able to hold her/him for a few moments.
She made them promise to take care of her child after she passed. They vowed to do their best to raise their grandchild.
