Can’t Take My Eyes Off You Chapter 1309

Chapter 1309: No More Next Time

“Didn’t you say that the child was buried alive? How did she suddenly—” Master Cheng snapped back to his senses after a long while. He paused and suddenly said, “So, I have a daughter too?”
At that point, Master Cheng’s face inexplicably widened, and the smile on his lips became wider. “Daughter… not bad, not bad.”
Then he raised his hand to touch his young son, who was still in a daze. “You have a sister! It’s that liar just now. I mean, the beautiful sister who looks very much like you.”
“It’s Auntie,” Xiao Nian retorted. “She’s already married, so it’s Auntie!”
Cheng Jinyan nearly facepalmed at the side. He did not know who had told his younger brother that she had to call a woman Auntie if she was married. Furthermore, that kid had memorized it and made it a rule.
“It’s not Auntie, it’s Sister. Regardless of whether she’s married or not, she’s still your sister. She’s different from others,” Master Cheng explained. “She’s also your mother’s child, so she’s your biological sister.”
“Brother said that I slept in my mother’s stomach for nine months before I woke up. Does that mean that she also slept in my mother’s stomach for nine months?” The child looked pleasantly surprised. “An elder sister like Brother?”
“Yes.” Cheng Jinyan patted his brother’s head. “Yes, an older sister like me, a family member. So, next time, don’t be rude to her when you see her.”
Cheng Jinnian immediately nodded, but then he looked up at Cheng Jinyan. “Brother, is there a next time?”
Cheng Jinnian’s words made the expressions of the people around them tighten.
Yes, would they get a next time?
Madam Cheng smiled bitterly, afraid that there was no future.
“I bullied her in the past, and just now, I called her a liar. When she left, she was crying. She must be angry. She definitely won’t come.” Cheng Jinnian pouted and muttered, “Can I exchange my brother for my sister?”
Cheng Jinyan was dumbfounded.
He was still a child. No matter how precocious he was, he still did not understand the ways of the world.
He thought that when his sister left, she was crying because she was angry at him for scolding her, so he thought it was useless to say sorry.
“The last time Young Madam Lu came to see Mother, she didn’t know her identity then. How did she suddenly recognize Mother this time?” Cheng Jinyan thought for a moment and then asked, “Mother, do you need me to go and check?”
“It’s good to go and check. Send someone to protect her. Don’t let anyone bully her.” Madam Cheng nodded. After the pleasant surprise, she snapped back to her senses. She also had some doubts about it.
How did Jiang Yao suddenly know that they were mother and daughter? Did someone tell Jiang Yao? Who could have told her? For what?
Cheng Jinyan said, “I’ll send someone to check. I’ll return home after your surgery. As for sending someone, I think there’s no need for that. She has two bodyguards by her side who won’t leave her side. I’ve checked. They’re mercenaries and were arranged by Young Master Lu. If we send someone else to follow her, she might find out about it.”
Madam Cheng thought about her illness and looked at the three people beside her. She smiled. “Don’t worry too much about me. Life and death are fated. God has been gracious with me already. If I can’t get through this, then I’ll leave. Don’t be too sad—”
Madam Cheng wanted to say more, but she gave up when she saw the expressions on her family’s faces. She had said too much; she was afraid that it would be her last words. When that time came, she would be even more worried.
