Wu Jinshu said, "What I mean is, since Yanyun will have to know about this sooner or later, we might as well tell her now. Isn’t there a saying, ’A swift knife cuts through the mess’? If Yanyun really chooses the Ni Family and doesn’t want us anymore, we can’t stop her, after all, blood is thicker than water..."
No matter what choice Wu Yanyun made, Wu Jinshu would respect it.
But out of selfishness, Wu Jinshu still hoped that Wu Yanyun wouldn’t abandon them...
"Okay," Yan Erju nodded and with a sigh said, "I’ll go call Xiaoyun."
Wu Yanyun now lived in a room by herself. When Yan Erju went to see her, she was revising her schoolwork.
Her grades were good, but not top-notch. With Ni Yang as a shining example before her, she wanted to make a push as well, to bring honor to her parents.
"Xiaoyun, are you studying?" Yan Erju gently pushed the door open.
"Mhm." Wu Yanyun nodded. "Mom, is there something you needed from me?"
Yan Erju smiled and said, "Xiaoyun, come with Mom for a moment, your dad and I have something to tell you."
"Okay." Wu Yanyun put down her pen and followed Yan Erju to the master bedroom.
"Yanyun is here, have a seat." Wu Jinshu patted the sofa.
Sensing something off about her parents’ expressions, Wu Yanyun asked, "Mom, Dad, what is it you want to talk to me about? You seem so serious?"
Wu Jinshu swallowed, carefully choosing his words in his mind, "It’s not such a big deal, it’s just... Yanyun, your mom and I want to talk to you about your origins. I think you should know that you are not our biological child..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yanyun’s eyes instantly reddened, "Mom, Dad, do you not want me anymore?"
Ever since she knew about her origins, Wu Yanyun’s mind had become sensitive; she feared that one day her parents might suddenly not want her.
Hearing this, her heart leaped to her throat.
"No, not at all!" Wu Jinshu quickly shook his head to deny it. "Silly child, what are you talking about? Why would your mom and dad not want you! Your parents just want to talk to you about this matter."
Yan Erju added, "Xiaoyun! You were raised by me, from diapers to potty training, how could I ever not want you? Don’t worry, you will always be your father and mother’s daughter."
Wu Yanyun wiped her tears, "Then, why are you bringing up this issue all of a sudden?"
Something felt off about it all.
Yan Erju sighed and continued, "Xiaoyun, your biological mother had no choice but to abandon you, and I hope you won’t hold it against them."
Wu Yanyun blinked, then said, "Have they come looking?"
Yan Erju nodded.
Learning that her blood relatives had found her, Wu Yanyun couldn’t describe what she was feeling; her mind went blank.
They didn’t want her, did they? So why were they looking for her now?
What kind of desperation had led them to give up their own flesh and blood!
"Mom, you and Dad just ignore them!"
Wu Jinshu continued, "Yanyun, aren’t you even a little bit curious who they are?"
"I’m not curious!" Besides, there wasn’t anything to be curious about.
Yan Erju said, "Xiaoyun, your biological mother really had her desperate reasons, and I hope you can forgive them..."
Wu Yanyun stayed silent.
Yan Erju continued, "Xiaoyun, actually, Yangyang is your sister, and Yangyang’s mom is your biological mother..."
At these words, Wu Yanyun felt as if something in her mind exploded with a ’bang’!
She never dreamed that Ni Cuihua was her birth mother! That Ni Yang was her biological sister!
She remembered the first time she saw Ni Yang.
That day, Ni Yang wore a beautiful and tidy cheongsam, like a young miss from a wealthy family stepping out of a novel, observably untouchable.
At the time, she wondered how there could be someone so beautiful in the world?
Not only was she beautiful, but she also had such good fortune.
Wu Jinshu sighed, "Yanyun, your mom isn’t lying to you. Yangyang really is your sister, and Yangyang’s mom is indeed your birth mother. Yanyun, our family’s situation isn’t as good as theirs. If you want to go to the Ni Family, your mom and I won’t stop you. After all, it wasn’t Yangyang’s mom’s intention to lose you..." freēwēbnovel.com
