Chapter 85

"Why hasn't she ever told her family? Do we need to check it ourselves on the official website?" Hearing that Xu Jingyu only found information about Song Yizhu on the official website, Song Huaipei's blame became even deeper.

Neither Song Yunxi nor Xu Jingyu responded, and the atmosphere in the car suddenly became quiet. However, Song Huaipei did not care too much. She was more concerned about the situation of Song Yizhu and the other person.

"Xixi, do you have her contact information?" After thinking about it, she still couldn't help but want to find out what happened between them. If Song Yizhu was unwilling to tell her, then she would find someone else to ask.

"I didn't. What does mother want to do?" Song Yunxi lied with her eyes open without any fear. She couldn't give any information about this.

Not to mention what her mother would tell others, she would have a hard time explaining this to her sister. Her relationship with her sister had just improved a little, and she was hoping Xu Zhiyan could talk to her more and bring the two of them closer.

"You just walked out with her, and now you tell me that you don't have her contact. Do you think I believe it? I just want to ask how they got together, and when they will have a baby." Song Huaipei glanced at her. This child kept the incident with her sister a secret. If you didn't know, you would think she was raised by Song Yizhu. It was such a waste of her doting on her.

"Really? Mother never asked about my sister's affairs before, why does she care about her so much now?" Song Yunxi didn't believe what she said. It sounded so reasonable, it would be strange for her to believe it.

"Song Yunxi..." Song Huaipei's voice became noticeably serious. Even if there were some issues between her and her eldest daughter, it was not a reason for her youngest daughter to question her, so her mood was not very good.

"Mom, save me." Song Yunxi quickly moved closer to her mother, even burying her head in her arms, obviously refusing to communicate with Song Huaipei.

"Song Huaipei, don't treat my daughter like that with the way you act in the company." Xu Jingyu glanced at her, her voice full of accusation.

"Wife, I was just a little serious, and I just wanted to ask about their relationship. It's not a big deal. Can I eat her?" Song Huaipei's momentum weakened, but he still wanted to refute.

Song Yizhu is her daughter after all. No matter how long they have been together, she should have the right to know about Song Yizhu's situation.

"She didn't say anything, it just means the two of them are not ready. No matter how much you ask, it's useless. Contacting them now would be disturbing, don't you understand?" Although Xu Jingyu was also very curious about their affairs, she didn't want to disturb them. What qualifications did her parents have to interfere in Song Yizhu's affairs now because they had never cared for her since she was a child?

Now she just wants her daughter to be happy and not work so hard. If possible, it would be good for her to spend more time with her.

"I understand." Song Huaipei nodded and withdrew her gaze from the two of them. There was no expression on her face, and it was unclear whether she really knew.

"Did you notice the person on the other side when you got out of the car to pick me up just now?" Sitting in the car, Xu Zhiyan no longer held her hand, but played with her hand.

Her palms were warm and covered with a layer of calluses, not thickly. This was probably because she had been handling military documents for the past two years, which had reduced her time for missions and training, and the calluses had become thinner.

"My mother and the others? I saw them." Song Yizhu knew who she was asking about and answered very straightforwardly.

"I thought you didn't see it. They should have noticed you too." If nothing unexpected happened, their relationship should have been known to the two mothers.

"I don't know, it's not important." Song Yizhu shook her head. They were not as important as Xu Zhiyan in front of her, so she didn't bother to care about them.

Xu Zhiyan looked at her. She could tell from the few words that Song Yizhu and Song Yunxi said that Song Yizhu's relationship with her two mothers was not good, but she really didn't know to what extent.

"What's wrong? Are you curious about them?" The stroking movement of his hand paused, making Song Yizhu a little confused.

"A little bit," Xu Zhiyan paused, pressing his thumb against her palm, which was softer than the rest. "But I'm not too curious. I'm more curious about you, your childhood."

"Then you probably won't be able to ask anything from them. I haven't been with them since they were born. My presence back then wasn't very good for either of them. I grew up in an orphanage until I was five, and I guess no one remembers me from that time."

"How did you know? Did they tell you?" Xu Zhiyan was somewhat relieved that she didn't recognize anyone at that time, otherwise she would have been so sad after leaving her two blood relatives at such a young age.

"No, the orphanage made a special growth record for me, but later gave it to the person who raised me. However, it was burned as her belongings, so no one remembers it." Song Yizhu shook her head. She had never asked them about these things, and they didn't know much.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Xu Zhiyan squeezed his fingers into the gaps between her fingers and intertwined theirs. The warmth of their intertwined fingers made her feel calm.

She was afraid to mention her sad things, so she tried to avoid asking about her relationship with her two mothers. Unexpectedly, she still asked about the sad things. Although Song Yizhu did not show it, she was still keenly aware of her emotional changes.

"It's okay. That happened a long time ago. I still miss her a little bit now." Song Yizhu held her hand back, with some nostalgia in his voice.

"Then we can go see her when we have time?"

"You can't see it. She disappeared into the interstellar space long ago." Song Yizhu shook her head. What else was worth seeing in the cemetery except a tombstone with her name engraved on it? There wasn't even a photo of her.

Xu Zhiyan fell silent. All she felt now was regret. She shouldn't have mentioned her family at all, let alone asked about her childhood.

"Don't blame yourself. It's not something that can't be mentioned. And the fact that I can tell you proves that I have let it go. It's okay." Song Yizhu tilted her head to look at her with her expression as usual. She admired that sister from the bottom of her heart, but now things have changed and she can't hold on to the past.

Xu Zhiyan met her gaze, but couldn't stop feeling heartbroken.

They say the death of a loved one is a lifelong pain. How did she get through those days when she couldn't let go? She didn't have a deep relationship with her family, so it was difficult for her to vent.

"Buy some wine tonight and let's drink."

"Can you drink?" Song Yizhu understood what she meant, but did not refuse. After all, tomorrow was the weekend.

"Yes." Xu Zhiyan nodded honestly. No matter whether she could drink or not, she knew how to drink now.

Song Yizhu looked at her doubtfully, but finally agreed.
