Lu Yuan is quite impressive. He has a wide network in the business world and quickly found someone who understood the situation of Xue Qiang and Chen Zhiwei. Xue Qiang and Chen Zhiwei are college alumni. They studied abroad together and started a business together. Originally, they planned to live as a DINK couple. However, Xue Qiang secretly raised me and had a child with me. When Chen Zhiwei discovered this, he wanted to divorce Xue Qiang. But several sisters from the Xue family disagreed. They said they would wait until the child was born to conduct a paternity test. Just then, Xue Qiang suddenly collapsed from a heart attack. The sisters from the Xue family took the baby away, leaving us mother and daughter out in the cold.
After hearing Lu Yuan's account, I felt a wave of emotion. Lu Yuan sighed, "Xue Qiang's condition may not be optimistic."
"How so?" Jin Yun asked him, "Is he going to die?"
Lu Yuan paused, hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Pretty much, he might not have much time left."
I remained silent. I thought that if Xue Qiang died, it would be better. If he died, there would be no need for a paternity test. But if Xue Qiang died, the baby would become an orphan. The baby is so small and would have no father. How would he live in the future? I pressed my lips together and lowered my gaze.
Jin Yun asked me, "What about Yunhui? How is she?"
I came back to my senses and replied, "She cries all day, hardly eats anything, and her mental state is very poor."
Jin Yun sighed, "It's no wonder; who wouldn't feel terrible in such a situation?"
I couldn't help but criticize, "She's too helpless; she relies entirely on Xue Qiang. Once Xue Qiang falls down, she completely collapses, just crying all day and doing nothing."
"Don't say that," Lu Yuan defended me, "after all, she's still just a child."
"She's not a child," I replied flatly. "She's just used to being taken care of and used to not taking on any responsibilities."
"Jiang Yuan, it seems like you have a bias against her," Lu Yuan pointed out sharply.
I paused and said nothing.
Jin Yun and Lu Yuan exchanged a glance but didn't speak again.
After finishing the meal, Lu Yuan accompanied me to Runhe.
Chu Yunhui was still crying.
I walked over, sat down beside her, and said softly, "Have you cried enough?"
Chu Yunhui paused and looked up at me.
Her eyes were completely swollen from crying.
She looked at me, helplessness in her eyes: "Jiang Yuan, what should I do?"
"Don't you still have your mother?"
"But I..."
"Do you want to see the baby?"
She pressed her lips together, lowered her head, and tears fell again.
"I do."
"Then pull yourself together." I looked at her, "You need to be strong to see the baby."
She glanced at me again, then lowered her head and started crying once more.
I was at a loss for words.
I really didn't know what else she could do besides cry.
I stood up, wanting to leave.
But just as I reached the door, she suddenly spoke up: "What about Wang Ming?"
I paused and turned to look at her.
She looked up at me through tear-filled eyes: "What about Wang Ming? Is he also in Beicheng?"
"Yes."
She lowered her gaze, tears falling: "I can't look for him; I can't approach him like this."
She started crying again.
I sighed helplessly: "Just take care of yourself."
"Jiang Yuan!" She suddenly stood up and grabbed my arm, "Can you help me with my makeup? I'm going to see Wang Ming tomorrow."
I glanced at her and replied: "Jin Yun said she would help you with that tomorrow."
"Thank you," she said softly.
I shook my head and turned to leave.
Lu Yuan's apartment is in the city center, with a spacious balcony that overlooks the beautiful scenery of Haicheng. The three of us are sitting there drinking.
Jin Yun sighed, "That Chu Yunhui is really pitiful, so young and facing such things."
Lu Yuan took a sip of his drink and replied casually, "But her sister is quite impressive."
Jin Yun paused and glanced at me. I took a sip of my drink and remained silent.
Jin Yun asked again, "What about her mother?"
"Her mother..." Lu Yuan hesitated before saying, "It seems she got back together with her father."
"Ah?" Jin Yun looked stunned. "Then what about Chu Yunhui?"
Lu Yuan shrugged, "I don't know."
Jin Yun asked again, "Is her father good to her?"
Lu Yuan paused and looked at me. I maintained a blank expression and continued drinking.
Lu Yuan cleared his throat and said, "It's okay, but sometimes he hits her."
"He hits her?" Jin Yun's voice rose. "Why?"
Lu Yuan paused before answering, "Her dad gets drunk and hits her."
"What about her mother? Doesn't she care?"
Lu Yuan glanced at me and said, "She doesn't care."
Jin Yun found it hard to believe. "How can that be? She must have had a terrible childhood!"
Lu Yuan remained silent.
Jin Yun turned to me again, "Jiang Yuan, do you know Mr. Feng...?"
I paused and shook my head. "I don't know him."
"Then how could he help you?"
"He wasn't helping me," I replied calmly. "He was helping Chu Yunhui."
Jin Yun paused again and asked, "So what about you and Mr. Feng now...?"
"I have nothing to do with him."
Jin Yun frowned slightly. "But it seems like Mr. Feng is special to you."
"Really?" I smiled lightly. "In what way is it special?"
"I can't quite put it into words," Jin Yun thought for a moment. "It just feels... different from how he treats others."
I laughed, "What's different?"
"Well..." Jin Yun tilted her head and thought for a moment, "He is very cold to others, but he's gentle and considerate only towards you."
"He's also considerate towards you."
"That's not the same," Jin Yun immediately retorted, "He's nice to me because of Mr. Ye."
I paused and looked at her, "How do you know that?"
Jin Yun cleared her throat lightly, leaned closer to my ear, and lowered her voice, "I heard that Mr. Feng has a white moonlight."
I froze, and the image of the photo I saw in Feng Hongyang's study flashed in my mind.
Is that photo of Feng Hongyang's white moonlight?
What was her name again?
Oh right, You Xinyi.
I took a sip of my drink and remained silent.
Jin Yun asked me, "You didn't know about this?"
I came back to my senses and shook my head, "No."
"That makes sense," Jin Yun nodded, "You were in Beicheng before, so it's normal not to know."
I lowered my head and said nothing.
Jin Yun sighed, "I wonder when Mr. Feng will be able to move on."
I took a sip of my drink and still didn't say anything.
Suddenly, Jin Yun realized something.
She looked at me with shock in her eyes.
I raised my head and met her gaze.
She stared at me blankly, disbelief written all over her face.
I remained silent.
She slowly squinted her eyes, "Jiang Yuan, you..."
She looked at me for a while before suddenly shaking her head again, "No way, how could that be?"
I put down my glass and said, "I'll be right back; I need to go to the restroom."
