(A slightly silly and lighthearted ghost style, we just want to have a sweet romance)
Why do retired people still have to do missions? Why are there mountain and sea monsters and ghosts in a ...
"Actually, before you were born, Mom had another child. Ah, Xiaoyue, don't doubt it, it was also your dad's. Your dad and I broke up for a while because of a fight. That's when I found out I was pregnant, and I didn't abort the child..."
“We were all angry at the time, and your father didn’t know I was pregnant. I kept it a secret from my family, only telling my best friend, and secretly gave birth to him in the hospital. It was a boy.”
Wu Yue paused for a moment, then readily asked, "Where is my brother now?"
"On the day he was born, my child was stolen. No, I don't know if he was stolen or not. He just suddenly disappeared in the nursery... We searched everywhere but couldn't find him." Speaking of that day, Mother Wu was still shaken, her eyes reddening, her voice slightly choked, muffled, and filled with sorrow.
"So all these years your father and I have been abroad to find him, and we have never given up."
Although Mother Witch's explanation was rather simple, Wu Yue understood it.
This older brother was born in a hospital abroad.
"After much inquiry and investigation, we finally found a child in China whose situation matches your brother's. We contacted the middleman and wanted to meet the child, but he refused to see us."
Is my older brother throwing a tantrum because he thinks Mom deliberately abandoned him?
Or perhaps that guy doesn't care about not having family.
Wu Yue picked up a Wanglaoji herbal tea and quickly took a sip: "Mom, tell me his contact information, I'll go find him."
My mother is so heartbroken, I have to beat that person up and bring them over to see her.
[The Witch God's idea is too dangerous; I feel sorry for the brother who is about to appear.]
[My dear daughter, can't you be a little more self-aware as a girl?!]
[Little Yueyue likes to talk big, but she's actually a total coward, so please don't mind her haha]
The witch doctor said, "Xiaoyue, you don't need to worry about this. We've already had a middleman persuade him, and the child has finally agreed to meet with us. We've arranged for Thursday evening."
Thursday? The night after tomorrow?
"Mom and Dad, are you sure he's my brother?"
“We’ve done a paternity test,” Father Wu explained. “The other party did a very good job of keeping it a secret. Although we both had a paternity test, neither of us revealed our identities. You know I’m very rich, so it would be terrible if someone who’s after our money impersonated me. So we just said we’re an ordinary family… a family of three.”
[As expected, they've been through the wringer in society; they're experienced.]
[I am Qin Shi Huang! Send me money!]
[Hey there, it's me, Fusu, sending money!]
[Hahahaha, I'm Nezha, send me money!]
Looking at her father, who was talking nonsense with a straight face, Wu Yue couldn't help but laugh. This father was kind of cute.
"Dad, I think you did the right thing."
The girl nodded in agreement, her eyes slightly curved, her smile sweet and innocent. She looked like a well-behaved child, naive yet kind.
Mother Wu let out a long sigh, "I really hope that child can recognize us, so that our family can be reunited. Your father and I won't need to travel abroad every day, and we can live in the country permanently."
As she spoke, Wu's mother looked at Wu Yue with a hint of apology and guilt: "Baby, your father and I didn't mean to hide your brother's situation. We've been searching for him for so many years and we're almost at our breaking point. We didn't want to pass on our emotions to you. We just wanted you to study hard and grow up carefree. Baby, we're sorry."
