Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

They were such good parents; how could they not be her biological parents?

How could she bear to disappoint them?

No matter who her biological parents were, she would not acknowledge them because they did not raise and dote on her.

After chatting with Jiang Yao for a while, Jiang Yao’s parents finally calmed down. Jiang Yao was stronger and much more sensible than they had imagined.

“You didn’t have time to eat when you came back, did you? I will cook something for you now!” Mrs. Jiang slapped her thigh and remembered that the family had not had time to eat dinner because of the people they found outside. Then, she called Mr. Jiang to help her cook in the kitchen.

Lu Xingzhi saw that Jiang Jie had something to say to Jiang Yao, so he waited in the courtyard. Before Jiang Jie said anything, he reached out and patted Jiang Yao’s head. It was the same as when she was a child; nothing had changed.

“You’ll always be my precious little sister.” That was the first thing Jiang Jie said. “I remembered when Mom and Dad brought you home. You were so small, and I’ve loved you since the moment I saw you. Look at you all grown up and sensible now.”

Jiang Jie’s words shook Jiang Yao’s calm mood. “Eldest Brother, I’ll always be the Yaoyao who refused to grow up. When Second Brother bullies me, you’ll still have to help me beat him up like before.”

“Okay.” Jiang Jie smiled. That was good; the family was still the same. Nothing had changed. Their family would always stay together and would not change because of some outsiders.

After eating, Jiang Jie rushed back to the town dormitory. After all, Wang Xian was still in town. He was afraid that the problems at home would disturb Wang Xian, so he did not bring her back.

Maybe he and his wife could bring the first joy to the family.

Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi stayed in the Jiang family’s house for the night, in Jiang Yao’s room before her wedding. The small room was still spotless, as if it was waiting for the return of its master at any time.

Life in the countryside was to sleep and wake up early. Jiang Yao’s parents went back to their room to rest at around ten at night. After Lu Xingzhi took a shower, he returned to the room and saw Jiang Yao in a daze with his phone.

“What’s wrong?” Lu Xingzhi walked toward her.

“The police station called and said that Mrs. Sun and Old Madam Lin insisted that I was their child. They said that they weren’t liars and that my parents had admitted that they picked me up years ago. Old Madam Lin had left me that year. Mrs. Sun took out a photo of her when she was young. The police station said that I was completely different from her when she was young, so they wanted me to go to the police station tomorrow to discuss how to resolve this matter.”

“What did you say?” Lu Xingzhi asked.

“I told them that Mrs. Sun’s daughter, Sun Xiaoshan, was by her side, right? Why are they looking for me?” Jiang Yao spread out her hands. “That’s the truth. Even the paternity test was fake. That Mrs. Sun is definitely not my biological mother. Then, it should be just as you guessed. Madam Cheng is the real Xie Qiuran.”

Sun Xiaoshan was a little older than Jiang Yao, so Mrs. Sun could not clearly explain Sun Xiaoshan’s identity. She could not prove that she was Jiang Yao’s biological mother.

“If I tell Mrs. Sun that my teacher can’t cure congenital heart disease, do you think she will still cling to me?” Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows and snorted. “No wonder I did not like Mrs. Sun from the first time I saw her. She was born with a bad character, so I was ruthless toward her.. Even though Sun Xiaoshan might be my cousin, I still don’t like her.”
