CHAPTER 271 - REUNION WITH CHILD
"Big sister is teaching you how to live your life." Pseudo Xu Shubei smiled slightly, the sharp light in her eyes vanishing once again.
I don't know if her sudden words were a test or if she sensed something.
I smiled and pretended that I didn't understand. I stuck out my tongue and said, "I understand."
Her eyes roamed over my body again, and she suddenly reached for my chest.
Startled, I quickly took two steps back.
"This doesn't look like a girl's X …" She mumbled to herself as her eyes suddenly became sharp, "Ta Zishu, who are you?"
I don't know what a girl's X is, because there is no reference.
Maybe it's because I had two children before, but even though I've recovered a lot from the effects of internal and external drugs, X is really soft.
I hadn't expected her to do this to me, so I wasn't on my guard at all.
She was obviously already suspicious, and constantly confirming her suspicions.
"Sister, I'm Ta Zishu, what's wrong with you? "You don't believe me?" I kept feeling wronged and pretended to be as innocent as I could be.
But I know that this is not a long-term solution, Tai Ziqian and I do not have much time left.
"Really?" She raised her gaze, then smiled. She placed her hand on my face and smiled as she said, "It's not that I don't trust you, but I'm afraid that you'll be used and purposely get close to me."
"Big sister, I grew up in the United States. I grew up with only my father and family, and only now do I recognize you and my brother. I know my identity will embarrass you, but I really meant no harm. Don't misunderstand me, or I'll be upset. " I lowered my head, feeling wronged.
"Alright, quickly get dressed. Everyone is still waiting outside." Pseudo Xu Shubei said half-heartedly.
I quickly put on my clothes and went out with her.
When he opened the door, Tai Ziqian, Sheng Yun and Ling Yue were all standing outside. The three of them had different expressions on their faces as the two of us walked out.
"Did you really come back this time?" Tai Ziqian asked with a smile, "Don't fool us anymore."
"Why are you so afraid of us fooling you, is it because you have a guilty conscience?" Pseudo Xu Shubei asked with a smile.
"What am I feeling guilty about, Shubei? You said that," Tai Ziqian said with a gentle smile, then pinched Pseudo Xu Shubei's face. "Shubei, your face is a little stiff. Did you give me a beauty needle?"
Pseudo Xu Shubei's expression changed slightly. "You're already old. If you want to be as beautiful as a flower, of course you have to do some beauty work from time to time."
Then she glanced at me and said, "It's not like my sister. Her skin is so smooth, like an egg that has been peeled off. Ziqian, has little sister been in a relationship for so many years? "
"Of course, the United States is a free society." Tai Ziqian did not fall for her trap and said with a smile.
Sheng Yun's gaze had been fixed on me the entire time. Ling Yue was also staring at me with interest. The two of them didn't say anything and just observed me quietly.
This feeling of having each of one's own ulterior motives was truly torturous.
Pseudo Xu Shubei said, "Oh... "No wonder."
I vaguely knew what she was implying, and my face immediately turned slightly red.
Pseudo Xu Shubei suddenly held Sheng Yun's hand in front of everyone and even kissed Sheng Yun on the cheek.
This action made me inexplicably angry, but I could only remain calm.
"What's wrong?" Sheng Yun was surprised by her sudden gesture of goodwill, then asked gently.
"Hubby, it's getting late. We should go home. Shall we have some wine tonight? " Pseudo Xu Shubei wrapped her arms around his neck and said with a smile, "It has been a long long time since we have seen each other."
In that instant, my mood dropped to the bottom.
I watched the scene with a burning anger; but what I feared more was that when they came home, they would actually live in a world of two.
"Alright, I also happen to want to talk to you." Sheng Yun said in a gentle voice. He then looked up at me meaningfully and said, "Zishu, you should go home early to sleep as well. I'll be home with the kids in a few days. If you have time, come over. "
"Cousin, I …" I almost blurted out, but Tai Ziqian put his hand on my shoulder, and seeing that I couldn't control myself, he pinched my back.
My words were forcefully swallowed back down.
Pseudo Xu Shubei kissed Sheng Yun on the cheek again. I was furious, but there was nothing I could do.
"Sister, Ziqian, Ling Yue, we'll be leaving first. We'll have a good romance tonight." Pseudo Xu Shubei said frivolously, and then she took Sheng Yun's hand and left.
My face was flushed, my heart was racing, and I was very excited.
Ling Yue looked at me and said with a smile that was not a smile, "Zishu looks very excited, could it be that she is jealous? Or are you envious of her? "
"Stop joking with my little sister, she will find her lover in the future." Tai Ziqian said while defending me.
"You can consider me, I'm also single," he reached out and touched my face, "Tsk tsk, I really like this face. Why don't we try dating? "
"You're not my dish." I frowned and shook my head.
However, Ling Yue couldn't stop laughing. He said, "Ziqian, don't say, your little sister's character looks soft, but in reality, she is still very fierce. She is quite similar to Shubei."
"Women are cute only because they have their own personality, don't they? It's getting late, so I'll take my sister home first. We'll meet again another day. " Tai Ziqian said.
I wasn't in the mood to continue fighting with Ling Yue, but Ling Yue stopped us and said: "Don't be in such a hurry, it's still early. It's not even 10 AM yet. Why don't I take you guys to a bar? "
"Brother, I'm a bit tired, I want to go home." I frowned and said to Tai Ziqian.
"Don't, go ahead. When you hear the explosive music next time, you'll wake up immediately. "Let's go to ON bar. Rou is waiting for us." Ling Yue said to Tai Ziqian.
"Ling Yue, we are really tired. Can we do it another day?" Tai Ziqian repeatedly refused.
"I've already reserved a seat, and have already arranged the wine. Didn't I say that I would welcome all of you today? If you don't go, wouldn't you be giving me face?" Ling Yue said to Tai Ziqian, and then said, "You brat, it's rare for you to return home, and we had a good chat before, not giving you any face, can you still be considered friends? After your father left home to cultivate, I would visit him once a month. It was also your father who guided me today. He is an old man with good words, I hear them and remember them in my heart. Let's go, let's go, we are all young people, why are we sleeping so early! "
I suddenly remembered that when I was in the temple, there was a young man who visited Uncle Tett every month. Every time that day, Uncle Te made me hide in my room and not come out. Once, I was curious about who it was and peeked around the door. At that time, that person's back was indeed very similar to Ling Yue.
It seemed that although he didn't look like a good person, he at least knew how to be grateful.
No matter what Tai Ziqian and I said, Ling Yue insisted on dragging us to ON bar, we had no choice but to bite the bullet and accompany him.
When we arrived at the ON bar, a charming woman in a shoulder-length dress came out to greet us.
Tai Ziqian whispered in my ear, "Little Shu, this is that Rou."
Rou … I understood instantly.
Tai Ziqian told me before that there were many conflicts between me and this woman. We understood from the very beginning that as long as we return to the Hangcheng, we would definitely be drawn into the whirlpools of my past.
Rou naturally saw me for the first time. She was surprised at first, then her face immediately filled with smiles. She came over and took my hand and said, "Aiya, this is Zishu, isn't it? He heard Ling Y
ue talk about it yesterday and said it was very similar to Shubei. I really didn't expect it to be so similar. "
I smiled but said nothing.
"Zishu doesn't talk much. She's very shy." Tai Ziqian added.
I don't have a good impression of this woman by instinct. Even if I had to deal with her, it would just be barely.
I wasn't used to the music in the bar, so I didn't like staying here. After I insisted on leaving, Tai Ziqian got up and said goodbye before leaving with me.
Once in the car, I said, "I don't like her. She makes me uncomfortable."
"I know, that's why I brought you away earlier." Tai Ziqian said.
"Brother, we have to speed up. She was already beginning to suspect us. Today, in the dressing room, she attacked me again. They will not believe in my identity. " "No," I said.
"What did she do to you?" Tai Ziqian asked me in surprise.
I blushed and said, "That's not convenient to say, bro. She's already suspected me anyway."
Tai Ziqian immediately understood and became a bit embarrassed.
When we got home, we quickly sorted through the information we had gathered and quickly sorted out all the clues.
I said, "Brother, should we tell Xia Yiwa the truth first? After all, she was once my best friend. I believe that she wouldn't betray me. She will definitely help us once she knows the truth. "
"No, it's not urgent. Or wait until this weekend, when you see the kids. After not seeing those two little fellows for so long, I'm also very worried. I watched Zaizai grow up. " Tai Ziqian said.
"Bro, do you think they will do anything to me?" I asked.
"Not at the moment, but it's my fault. I was too careless at night and acted too obviously." But at that time, why didn't you remind me that you guys had switched places? " Tai Ziqian said.
"I reminded you at the time. I did a few small things, but you didn't notice. I can't directly say so. " "No," I said.
"No matter what happens in the future, we have to keep breathing air into each other. We can't let this happen again, do you understand?" Tai Ziqian said.
"Yeah, I know." I nodded.
A few days later, on the weekend morning, after receiving our invitation, Sheng Yun specially drove the two children to where Tai Ziqian and I lived.
The moment the car door opened, my heartbeat quickened. After tossing and turning all night, I finally saw my son and daughter …
CHAPTER 272 - BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER
The three of them wore the same color clothing. Sheng Yun wore a light blue t-shirt with black pants, Zaizai wore a light blue shirt with black shorts, and Qian Jin wore a light blue round-collared shirt with a black pleated skirt.
Zaizai jumped out of the car with the gold in his hands. At first glance, the three of them looked like they were reproducing.
For some reason, my eyes became moist.
Zaizai ran in happily. When he saw me, he was stunned. After a few seconds, he shouted, "Mom!" and jumped into my arms!
I was caught off guard, I did not expect the child to see me such a reaction!
In the end, their hearts were linked! He threw himself into my arms, hugged my thighs, and said, "Mama!"
I looked at Sheng Yun in astonishment, Sheng Yun also looked at me in surprise. The gold coins in his arms struggled to come down, waving their small hands, imitating Zaizai saying "Mommy, Mommy …"
"The child has recognized the wrong person." Tai Ziqian smiled as he tried to smooth things over. He picked up Zaizai from the ground and pinched his nose, "Little scoundrel, do you still remember me?"
Zaizai looked blankly at Tai Ziqian, and then his eyes still looked at me, that expression was really pitiful.
"Darling, this is Auntie Shu. She's not your mother. Didn't your mother say goodbye to you this morning?" Sheng Yun coaxed.
I looked at my children, and though I had no memory of them, I knew they were my children.
Their skin was so white, their hands and feet were like lotus roots, and they both had big round eyes, and they both looked at me with great reluctance.
The feeling it gave me was that of a mother and her son's bloodline.
I took Zaizai from Tai Ziqian and he put his arms around my neck and kissed me on the cheek.
The child was innocent. He said to me, "Mom, I miss you so much."
I sat down with him on a stone bench in the yard.
Sheng Yun looked at me in shock. He put the gold on the ground and I put Zaizai down.
When the girl was ready to walk, she staggered toward me with an innocent look on her face.
She slowly walked to my side and pointed at me with her little finger. She turned her head and stared at Sheng Yun. "Mommy, Mommy …"
"Little Shu, it looks like you're really too similar to Shubei. The two children have gotten the wrong person." Tai Ziqian said with a smile.
I couldn't laugh at all. My mood was complicated. I grabbed a handful of candy from the stone table and passed it to Zaizai while smiling at him.
"Zaizai, Qian Jin, come here and let my aunt hug you." I told them, trying to control my emotions.
Sheng Yun came over and sat beside me. He smiled and said, "Let me hug one. You are so skinny. How can you hug two?"
"It's fine, I can carry it." I laughed too.
We looked at each other at the same time. His eyes were so unfathomable that I felt my heart palpitate.
Is there a love that is deeply rooted in your subconscious mind even if you lose all your memories?
Is there a man who, even if you forget everything about him, will once again go all out and fall in love with him?
We both looked at each other.
Zaizai was a ghost. He sat on Sheng Yun's leg and hugged Sheng Yun's neck as he said, "Mom and dad are in love again. Mom and dad finally stopped quarreling …"
The child was one of my parents' windows.
He must have seen countless scenes of Sheng Yun and Pseudo Xu Shubei quarrelling in my absence. It must have been a long time since he felt the warmth of his mother's love. But I still have to hide. I can't do anything.
"Zaizai, I'm not your mom, but you can call me aunt. I'll love you and my sister like mom, okay?" I said to him.
The girl was in my arms, her little hands clutching at my clothes, and she was holding on to me so hard that her mouth was slobbering on my clothes.
Seeing that, Sheng Yun embarrassedly said: "Qian Jin, come here and let daddy hug you. My aunt is too thin to carry you. "
Qian Jin shook her head as she tried even harder to pull herself into my embrace.
"These two children are destined to be with you. They haven't kissed their mother like this in a long time." Sheng Yun said.
"I got auntie to prepare the dishes. We'll have lunch here at noon." Seeing this, Tai Ziqian said lightly.
"Thank you, Ziqian." Sheng Yun said.
From then on, the money kept on hanging on my body, refusing to come down no matter what.
Zaizai desperately showed off in front of me, running back and forth playing ball for me to see, then reciting Tang Shi in front of me, hoping that I would praise him. After a while, he obediently snuggled up to me and helped me feed and change my diaper.
My heart ached unspeakably as I watched the two children so sensible and dependent on me. This feeling of not being able to recognize him was simply too excruciating.
"Little Shu, you've had children before?" Sheng Yun, who was watching from the side, suddenly asked me.
My heart thumped. I raised my head and asked him with a smile, "Cousin, why did you suddenly ask me this?"
"You're very skilled at changing to wet or not." Sheng Yun said.
Ah … Is that so?! I was surprised. I had never been in contact with these, but how could I have known them so easily?
I quickly said, "I used to volunteer at the orphanage when I was in the United States. That's why I'm very familiar with it."
"I see." He slightly restrained his expression, and then said,
"The children are very close to you, for some reason. "You also give me a very familiar feeling. I don't know if you are really too similar to your sister, but sometimes your little actions are just the same …"
"Is that so? I don't know? Then will Cousin recognize us wrong? " I asked, smiling.
After Qian Jin drank her milk, she fell asleep in my embrace. Sheng Yun let the nanny who came with him carry her away and then took Zaizai to play.
The two of us were the only ones left in the huge courtyard. Such an atmosphere gave him an inexplicable sense of awkwardness.
I didn't even know where I was looking. I saw a swing under the grape arbor not far away, so I went over and sat on it.
Sheng Yun also came over and gave me a light push. He murmured, "Shubei, it's been a long time since we've been together like this …"
"Cousin, did you recognize the wrong person again?" I asked, startled.
He came back to his senses and said, "I'm sorry, Little Shu. I always thought of you as Shubei."
"Cousin, can't you mend the relationship between you and elder sister? "You're not going to hand over the power of the company to her, are you?" I couldn't help but ask.
"It's very difficult. She has completely changed." Sheng Yun smiled bitterly and then said, "As for the company... It belongs to Golden Age; no one can take it away, and she is no exception. "
I said, "Perhaps after a while, when she realizes that she was wrong, she will change her mind and treat you and the two children well."
"Don't talk about her, okay?" Sheng Yun lightly pushed me from behind, then said, "Let's talk about you. "Little Shu, all these years in the United States, you must be very lonely, right?"
"Yes, it's very lonely. Every day, other than studying, it's also studying." "No," I said.
"It was the same when I was young. Only by laying a good foundation when he was young could he have a good future. Little Shu, don't move for now. A bug fell on your hair … " Sheng Yun suddenly said.
Buggy! I panicked and almost fell off the swing.
"Don't be nervous, I'll help you get it over with!" Sheng Yun pressed me against my shoulder to keep my balance, then reached out to remove the bugs on my head and nervously asked, "Are you alright? The bugs didn't bite you, right? "
