Chapter 396: Everyone In the Family Is Waiting For You
Listening to Yue Chuang’s words, Su Yan narrowed her eyes. She quickly recalled everything from her childhood. It wasn’t until today that she finally understood why her grandmother, Liu Yuhuan, and uncle Yang Deyi’s family would treat her like that. She also finally understood why every time her mother returned to her parents’house, Liu Yuhuan would force her to give money to her uncle to spend. It was laughable that she had always thought that Liu Yuhuan was old-fashioned and valued sons over daughters. Now that she had finally figured it out. Her mother wasn’t born by Liu Yuhuan at all, much less her own grandmother.
“Ever since I could remember, the Yue family has been looking for my aunt, but there has been no news of her. Later, when I grew up, I also started looking for my aunt. Fortunately, I went to Mr. Xia’s birthday banquet as promised. Fortunately, you look so much like my aunt, and I could even see my grandmother’s appearance when she was young from you, so I began to send people to investigate you. My aunt’s birth name was Yue Longyue, also known as Yue’er. Later, she was adopted by Liu Yuhuan and was named Yang Yue. The Yue family named my aunt Yue because they hoped that the whole family would treat her like the moon.” Yue Chuang took a sip of tea. In the surface, he was expressionless, but deep inside, he was ecstatic. The long-cherished wish of the Yue family had finally been fulfilled.
Seeing that Su Yan was looking at him without saying a word, Yue Chuang continued, “Back then, my aunt was abducted from Xiang City. After a few exchanges, she was sold to Liu Yuhuan’s family. The reason she bought my aunt was because Liu Yuhuan and her husband had found a fortune teller, who told them to adopt a child who was destined to have a younger brother so their family can give birth to a boy. Later on, Liu Yuhuan gave birth to your uncle, Yang Deyi, as she wished. Following the birth of Yang Deyi, your mother became less and less popular in the Yang family. Being scolded and beaten was a common occurrence. It was only after she had grown up and gotten to know your father that she was able to break away from Liu Yuhuan’s grasp and torture.”
Yue Chuang stopped at this point because Su Yan already knew everything that happened after that, including that she was abandoned by Liu Yuhuan in the orphanage, that she was going to sell her to a rich businessman couple, that her mother had cut off all ties with Liu Yuhuan’s family, and so on. One scene after another replayed in her mind.
Just like Yue Chuang, Su Yan looked relaxed on the surface, but she was also flustered. Yue Chuang had given her too much information, and even she would find it difficult to process.!!
Seeing that the food was served, Su Yan took a deep breath and said, “Let’s eat first.”
However, Yue Chuang didn’t move his chopsticks and said, “After learning that you are my aunt’s biological daughter, my grandfather, your grandfather, really wants to meet you.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows. “Meet me?”
Yue Chuang nodded, but his expression was a little gloomy as he said, “Your grandmother, my grandmother, had throat cancer a few years ago. Now, she has been staying in the intensive care unit. She wants to see my aunt again before she dies. With her current condition, she probably won’t be able to last for more than a few days. So, we also want to help her fulfill this wish before she dies.”
Su Yan understood that the Yue family wanted her to meet her grandmother. After all, she looked like her mother. Therefore, only Su Yan could fulfill her grandmother’s wish.
Yue Chuang said, “Su Yan, I hope that you can agree to go back with me. Everyone in the family is waiting for you. They also want to see you very much.”
Looking at Yue Chuang’s slightly red eyes and hearing the words “everyone in the family is waiting for you”, Su Yan’s heart fluttered with rare emotion. Suddenly, her nose felt sour.
Su Yan put down her chopsticks, looked at Yue Chuang and said, “I agree to go back with you.”
What did he mean by family? What did he mean by relatives? Everyone in the family was waiting for her, instead of the family asking her to go back. The same meaning gave Su Yan a completely different feeling. There was a kind of warmth and a kind of coldness. When she thought of this, Su Yan’s eyes turned red. She had thought that she had no family in this world. She didn’t expect her mother to be a member of the Yue family, and she was also a member of the Yue family. This feeling of suddenly finding her roots made her tears flow uncontrollably.
Ever since the divorce, she had drifted around like a fallen leaf. Although she lived a rich life and had no worries about food and clothing, she had always been lonely because she was alone and couldn’t feel the existence of a family. Four years ago, she thought that Wei Zhou would give her a family, but Wei Zhou only gave her a failed marriage.
Yue Chuang’s words of “everyone in the family is waiting for you” had completely pried open Su Yan’s heart. Yue Chuang was telling her that she had a home, that she had roots, and that she wasn’t an orphan who was wandering around.
