“I am not sure. My parents said that Yaoyao was left in the mountains. She would have died if they did not find her that day.” Jiang Jie shook his head. “Some people are bad parents. They wanted their children to die in the mountains. If they had wanted them to live, they would have left them by the roadside so that some kind-hearted soul could take care of the child. They would not have abandoned them in the mountains where no one would find them.”
Lu Xingzhi did not say anything else. He felt terrible for his wife after he heard Jiang Jie’s words.
Whether it was the Sun family or Madam Cheng, there had to be a reason why they looked so similar.
Jiang Jie stood there and watched as Lu Xingzhi walked away. He stood in the distance for a while, in the cold wind. Then he sighed helplessly. He felt sad for his sister because he knew her biological parents had abandoned her in the mountains. That was why he had always taken care of her when she was a child.
Jiang Jie could not comprehend why someone would abandon his sister and even wished for her death in the mountains.
“Eldest Brother…”
Jiang Jie was ready to return when Jiang Lei appeared out of nowhere and said, “I heard what you said to Lu Xingzhi. Did Mom and Dad really adopt Yaoyao?”
Jiang Jie’s eyebrows twitched when he saw Jiang Lei emerge out of nowhere. “Pretend you heard nothing; don’t let Yaoyao know about this. She is smarter than you, and if she finds out, then Mom, Dad, and even Lun Xhingzhi will punish you.”
Jiang Lei nodded. “Fine, I won’t say anything.” Then, he asked again, “What about me? Did Mom and Dad get me from the mountains too?”
Jiang Jie’s head hurt. “Yes, from the mountains.” Jiang Jie turned around and went upstairs after that.
Jiang Lei stood there as he touched his face and muttered in his heart. That sounded impossible; he looked too much like his brother.
Jiang Yao was bored at home and took a nap. Huang Cheng had called her as she was ready to fold the paper cranes. Cheng Jinyan was the one who begged Huang Cheng to apologize on his behalf.
It was not only because Cheng Jinyan kidnapped her. He had planned to burn the manor that his father had built for his mother, the same one given to Jiang Yao. She would inherit the land from him.
“Jinyan said that every blade of grass and tree in the mansion contained his father’s love for his mother. He had consented to give you the manor because he had kidnapped you and felt terrible about it. Perhaps it was also due to Old Master Liang’s comments. Jinyan wanted to raze the manor. You have already issued a death warrant for Madam Cheng. Master Cheng and his son are out of luck.”
Huang Cheng explained seriously. “Madam Cheng is a wonderful woman, even though she is not Jinyan’s biological mother. Madam Cheng, by the way, has a striking resemblance to you.”
“Very well.”
Jiang Yao did not care. She had no reason to keep the manor anyway.
“Jinyan’s mother was shot a few months ago when she tried to save him. Master Cheng met Madam Cheng in prison.
They were incarcerated together for five years. Later, Master Cheng arranged for Madam Cheng to get out early. She traveled overseas to find Jinyan after she escaped. Then she cared for him as if she were his mother. She ignored Master Cheng’s advice to look for her own future. While she waited for Master Cheng to get out of prison, she raised Jinyan. She had to wait seven years for Master Cheng to get out. Madam Cheng is not Jinyan’s real mother, but he treasured her the most.”
