839: Chapter 0839: When Did I Get Another Sister?
i Hanqing stared blankly at Jian Yunong, filled with confusion in her heart.
Why did Jian Yunong suddenly ask her that question?
What did she an?
Ye Xunhuan, on the other hand, looked thoughtful as he watched Jian Yunong; was she intending to have a showdown with i Hanqing?
Although Ye Xunhuan couldn’t quite grasp Jian Yunong’s intentions, he didn’t speak up either, instead, he picked up the wine glass beside him and gently sipped the red wine within!
i Hanqing’s silence undoubtedly caused Jian Yunong’s heart to jump to her throat, and at the sa mont, every nerve in her body tensed up completely.
At this mont, Jian Yunong felt her heart race uncontrollably.
After a long mont, i Hanqing looked at Jian Yunong and slowly said, “What difference does it make if they are found or not?
“All these years without them, I’ve lived well and had a spectacular life!” i Hanqing said softly!
i Hanqing’s response was extrely vague and, in a strict sense, she hadn’t really answered Jian Yunong’s question!
Jian Yunong felt an unprecedented bitterness inside upon hearing i Hanqing’s extrely vague words and didn’t know how to respond for a while.
“Why would Miss Jian suddenly ask that?”
“It’s nothing!” Jian Yunong shook her head: “Just asked casually, in the past I often encountered children who would ask why their parents abandoned them…”
“I used to ask as a child, but as I grew up, I ca to terms with it,” i Hanqing said indifferently: “It’s better to let it go!”
“Since I’ve been abandoned anyway, thinking about it too much is useless.
It’s better to live well and carve out a life of my own!” i Hanqing said softly, “And if I am successful and et them one day, I might even be able to slap them hard on their faces!”
“Let them regret it!”
As soon as i Hanqing finished speaking, Jian Yunong’s delicate body involuntarily shuddered.
Is she talking about herself?
But thinking about it, it’s right; I abandoned her for more than twenty years, didn’t provide her even a bite to eat or a sip to drink, how could she possibly acknowledge as her mother now?
Besides, she has now risen from hardships, beca a high-earner, and even Ye Xunhuan’s woman, truly a golden phoenix!
i Hanqing caught the subtle changes on Jian Yunong’s face and curiously asked, “Miss Jian, what’s wrong?”
“No…
it’s nothing!” Jian Yunong hurriedly lifted her wine glass and took a sip, using it to mask the panic inside her heart!
After drinking a sip of wine and calming herself, Jian Yunong looked at i Hanqing and said, “Not all parents want to abandon their children, maybe they had their hardships!”
“Perhaps!” i Hanqing whispered!
Knowing that letting Jian Yunong speak further might allow i Hanqing, with her cleverness, to see sothing, Ye Xunhuan didn’t wait for Jian Yunong to talk and said, “Miss Jian, it’s getting late, shall we head back?”
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Jian Yunong knew what he ant; he was afraid she might say too much.
After looking at i Hanqing, Jian Yunong nodded: “Okay, let’s go then!”
Then, Ye Xunhuan took i Hanqing and left the restaurant, while Jian Yunong stayed behind, sitting there in a daze, letting tears slide down her cheeks.
For more than twenty years, she finally had a al with her daughter today, which greatly satisfied her heart, but at the sa ti, her heart ached trendously upon recalling i Hanqing’s words earlier!
After Ye Xunhuan drove away from the Shangri-La Hotel with i Hanqing, he couldn’t help but ask Ye Xunhuan, “Xunhuan, what made you think of bringing along to have dinner with Jian Yunong?”
“I have nothing to say to her myself.
I thought of bringing Ruoxi, but she definitely wouldn’t co, so I dragged you along.
After all, it’s soone else treating us to a big al, and it’s better to enjoy it together than alone!” Ye Xunhuan said nonchalantly.
i Hanqing chuckled lightly: “You really know how to count your pennies!”
“Of course, if I don’t watch the expenses, what if we have children soday?
We’d end up starving!”
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan ntion children, a sudden joy sprung in i Hanqing’s heart, but his face also turned an attractive shade of red!
“Who…
who is going to have children with you?”
“Don’t you want to have children with ?” Ye Xunhuan glanced at i Hanqing and said, “In that case, I’ll look for other won to see who is willing…”
“You…”
“Alright, I’m just teasing you!” Ye Xunhuan said to i Hanqing with a smile: “This Jian Yunong is actually not bad.
You should interact with her in the future.
These are valuable connections; you might find them useful soday!”
i Hanqing nodded, “I know, but I feel like the way she looks at is sohow…”
“What?
How?”
“I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it just feels off!” i Hanqing spoke with seriousness on his face: “It’s very complicated—guilt, bitterness, pain, pity, all sorts of expressions seem to be there!”
Ye Xunhuan gave a bitter smile!
How could she not?
She is your biological mother, after all.
She abandoned you for over twenty years, owing you for those years.
If she could be utterly calm, that would be strange!
“Maybe it’s because you grew up in an orphanage!” Ye Xunhuan made up another lie to i Hanqing: “Didn’t you hear what she just said?
She’s always been keen on charity!”
Although Ye Xunhuan’s explanation made sense, i Hanqing didn’t completely believe it and still felt sothing was off.
But exactly what was off, i Hanqing couldn’t quite say!
Right now, Jian Yunong still doesn’t know that i Hanqing has started to suspect her.
In the restaurant, Jian Yunong’s cheeks were already dampened by tears, her face filled with anguish.
Her daughter hates her, which was clear from that slap alone.
Taking a deep breath, Jian Yunong took out her phone and dialed the number of Su Bingzhi who was far away in Suzhou Hangzhou!
The call was connected instantly!
“Bingzhi, I had dinner with our daughter today…”
Just as Jian Yunong finished speaking, a sowhat naïve voice reached her ears: “Mom, when did I get another sister?”
Upon hearing this, Jian Yunong was slightly startled: “Ming Xuan, why is it you, where is your dad?”
“He’s drunk!” Su Mingxuan said flatly: “Mom, why haven’t I ever heard you ntion that I have a sister?”
“Where is my sister?
Why haven’t I ever t her?” Su Mingxuan asked curiously: “Tell quickly?”
