Chapter 265: 127 can be killed_2
Han Suwen watched the scene, her eyes welling up.
Ming Jing glanced at her, softly murmuring, “Be good.”
Ming One shrank back a little, murmuring, “Okay.”
When Sister is like this, it’s the scariest. Not just for us and the third and fourth sisters, even the most spirited eldest sister has to yield to her.
Ming Ti and Ming Chen came running out, cheerfully greeting Ming Jing,
“Sister.”
Ming Jing nodded, “Go in.”
At this point, Madam Zhou noticed a middle-aged woman trailing gingerly behind her. Miss was compassionate, always fond of helping the homeless. Madam Zhou felt the woman looked familiar, but couldn’t place her. She asked, “Miss, who is…?”
“You’ll know in a while,” said Ming Jing, nonchalantly.
Ming Chen and Ming Ti looked at the woman curiously. She followed Ming Jing gingerly into the living room, looking greedily at the luxurious mansion of the Zhus.
Upon seeing Ming Jing, Zhu Xiangxiang unconsciously clenched her white dress, her eyes downturned unnaturally.
Suddenly, a woman charged at her, her eyes red with excitement, “My daughter, mom has finally found you… ‘
The woman held Zhu Xiangxiang tightly. Stunned by this sudden turn of events, Zhu Xiangxiang was frozen in place.
Madam Zhou, Han Suwen, Ming Ti, and Ming Chen were all shocked by the scene.
Only the innocent Ming One blinked, puzzled.
Expressionless, Ming Jing ascended the staircase unnoticed by anyone.
Zhu Xiangxiang let out a scream, pushing the woman away roughly. ” Who are you? Why are you causing a ruckus in my house? Your daughter? I’ll call the police if you keep doing this.”
The woman stumbled backward from the shove. Thanks to Madam Zhou’s help did she maintain her footing. The woman wailed, “Daughter, you know how hard I’ve been looking for you all these years. How can you not recognize your own mom after finally finding you?”
Recalling what the private investigator had told her a few days ago, Zhu Xiangxiang examined the woman in front of her with a terrible suspicion growing within her.
In her early forties, slightly overweight, coarse skin, sunken eyes, weary gaze. She must have been rather attractive, but years of life have seemingly worn her down, making her look utterly ordinary. Wearing a cheap floral dress, as one might buy from a clearance sale for thirty yuan, she looked somewhat ill-fitted in it, making her stomach fat wobble.
Zhu Xiangxiang shook her head violently. No, she could not accept that this was the image of her biological mother. Too frightening!
It’s all false, all of it.
Struck by a sudden realisation, Madam Zhou asked, “Aren’t you the woman I bumped into at the hospital? You looked suspicious then, I thought you were a thief. What are you doing at the Zhus’?”
The woman clung tightly to Madam Zhou’s hand, “Sister, she’s my biological daughter whom I’ve been looking for sixteen years. I never thought she’d been in Jiangzhou all while. God has pity on me and let me find my own daughter.”
Madam Zhou frowned deeper, looked at Zhu Xiangxiang and then at the woman. There was indeed some resemblance.
Zhu Xiangxiang was a switched baby and after her real identity got exposed, Lin Qing, unwilling to let go of the relationship he had for sixteen years, did
not try to find Zhu Xiangxiang’s biological parents. But now unexpectedly, they seem to have found her on their own.
Madam Zhou asked, “How did you come back home with Miss?”
“I found this place but couldn’t get in. I was arguing with the security when the kind-hearted Miss passed by. After enquiring about my situation, she let me in. I never imagined that she was the Miss of the Zhus. Such a coincidence!”
“No, how did you find the Zhus’?” Madam Zhou still felt the need to probe, they couldn’t simply let the woman claim kinship rashly.
What’s more, Zhu Xiangxiang wasn’t given much importance in the Zhus. If this woman was indeed her biological mother, living with her would likely be better than being neglected in the Zhus’ house – although materially poorer, it would have been Zhu Xiangxiang’s fate. Now, everything just seems to be getting back on track.
The woman glanced at Zhu Xiangxiang, who avoided her gaze instinctively. She wiped away her tears and said, “Sixteen years ago, being unmarried and pregnant, I secretly gave birth to my child in a hospital, afraid to tell my family. But eventually, my mother found out. She told me the child had birth defects and didn’t survive. It wasn’t until three months ago when she fell seriously ill that I learned the truth. She concealed the truth from me and secretly gave the baby away fearing it would ruin my life. I found out through several inquiries back home that my mother had sent the child to the Jiyue Abbey at Baitou Mountain. When I found the temple, it was deserted. It took a lot of asking around the town at the foot of the mountain to learn that my child had been mistakenly adopted by the Zhus. Thinking that she would be living a life of luxury in the Zhus’ household instead of experiencing hardships with me, I decided to let it be. But then I saw her at the hospital, she looked exactly like I did when I was young. It was fine until I saw her. After that, I just couldn’t
hold back..”
