Chapter 145 That's Jiang Lu's Third Uncle

Fu Xijing: "Maybe she doesn't think so."

Song Lansheng: "She has always been more sensible than other children. I brought her to North City alone, and the neighbors gossiped about her behind her back, but she never said anything to me. In fact, I knew everything."

"I didn't provide her with a good growing environment, and she suffered a lot of grievances at school when she was young."

Over the years, the mother and daughter have tacitly agreed not to mention this matter, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Fu Xijing listened to Song Lansheng's words in silence, then asked naturally, "Her father...?"

Song Lansheng shook his head. "I haven't seen him in decades."

Fu Xijing: "Have you ever thought about looking for him?"

"I came to North City just to find him." Song Lansheng's voice was weak. "After so many years, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's not easy."

Fu Xijing: "Do you remember his name?"

Song Lansheng nodded, but did not say the name.

Fu Xijing speculated that Jiang Jiang did not use his original name when he was dating Song Lansheng.

Otherwise, Song Lansheng would not have had no doubts after hearing Jiang Yuxu's surname.

Jiang Jiang had a special identity, so it was normal for him to use a code name when he was outside. I think he was called away before he had time to reveal his identity to Song Lansheng.

And never came back.

It's really fate.

Fu Xijing was silent for a while. "You haven't remarried yet. Besides being worried that Song Yi will be wronged, you also want to wait for him, right?"

Song Lansheng didn't answer, but raised his hand to wipe away his tears.

This action makes the answer very clear.

Fu Xijing tentatively asked the core question again: "If you meet again, will you forgive him?"

Song Lansheng sniffed. "He and I are both in the past. I just hope he can take better care of Xiaoyi in the future. I'm not in good health, and I don't have the ability to protect her."

At this point, Song Lansheng's voice couldn't help but choke up. "If her father was here, Xu Shengwen's family wouldn't have dared to bully her like that. From childhood to adulthood, because I was incompetent, she has suffered so much injustice."

Fu Xijing's lips were pressed into a line, his brows were unconsciously furrowed, and his expression was solemn.

"Let me help you find it." Fu Xijing said to Song Lansheng solemnly, "Tell me what information you know, and I'll have someone check it out."

Song Lansheng was stunned and looked at Fu Xijing intently, not saying anything for a long time.

Although Fu Xijing was very kind to her, Song Lansheng knew very well that he was just being polite and their relationship was far from that level.

She didn't expect Fu Xijing to offer to help him find someone.

"No need, Yuxu is helping to find it." Song Lansheng rejected Fu Xijing's suggestion, "Thank you."

Fu Xijing asked, "Is there any news from him?"

Song Lansheng shook his head.

Fu Xijing: "Yes, it takes too much energy to find a needle in a haystack."

Song Lansheng sighed again, "Yes, after a while, Yuxu's family will also have opinions."

This is also what she has been worried about recently.

Jiang Yuxu is a very good person, and Song Yi also said that the Jiang family doesn't mind her background, but there is still a gap between them, and no one can tell for sure after a long time.

She had suffered a loss at the hands of Xu Shengwen before, and Song Lansheng didn't want her to suffer that kind of injustice again.

Talking about this topic, Song Lansheng remembered that Fu Xijing and Jiang Yuxu's families were very familiar with each other, so he asked a few more questions: "Xijing, do the elders of the Jiang family really not mind Xiaoyi's background? They..."

"Yes, they treat Teacher Song very well." Fu Xijing took over Song Lansheng's words and said with a smile, "I was quite surprised by this as well."

"I originally thought they would mind to some extent, but the Jiang family treats Teacher Song as if she were their own child. My mother even said that Teacher Song and the Jiang family have a special bond." Fu Xijing hinted at this.

If Song Lansheng was sharp enough, he would definitely find doubts in his words.

——Jiang Yuxu and Jiang Jiang look about 50% similar, and anyone who has seen them as uncle and nephew cannot deny this.

Fu Xijing felt that Song Lansheng should have seen it too, but he didn't doubt it too much because the surnames didn't match.

After all, North City is so big, and she has been here for decades without finding anyone. She would not think that she would encounter such a big coincidence.

But reality is often so bloody.

Fu Xijing thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I heard a friend say the other day that Teacher Song and Lawyer Jiang look like a couple."

Hearing these three words, Song Lansheng's breath paused.

Jiang Yuxu's face flashed through her mind, and suddenly overlapped with the already blurred face in her memory.

Song Lansheng's right eyelid twitched, his heart rate gradually increased, and his ominous premonition became more and more intense.

I haven't seen that person for almost thirty years, and there are no images or photos left. It is really difficult to describe his appearance based on memory alone.

When they met, they were only in their early twenties, both full of vigor and vitality. Now, as time goes by, their appearance must have changed as well.

When Song Lansheng met Jiang Yuxu for the first time, he did feel vaguely familiar with his face.

But she quickly dismissed the idea.

Jiang Yuxu is a gentle and refined man, and his temperament is completely different from that person. Maybe it’s just that the position of their eyebrows and eyes happens to be somewhat similar.

Song Lansheng didn't think Jiang Yuxu and Song Yi were alike.

After Fu Xijing said this, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Song Lansheng's breathing became increasingly unstable. She raised her head and looked at Fu Xijing. "Xijing, do you have any photos of Yuxu's parents?"

As soon as Song Lansheng asked this, Fu Xijing guessed the reason.

"Yes, I'll look for it." Fu Xijing took out his mobile phone and searched through it, and found the group photo taken on Zheng Liling's birthday from her circle of friends.

Fu Xijing looked at Jiang Jiang, who was sitting in a wheelchair in the lower left corner. His eyes flickered slightly, and then he handed the phone to Song Lansheng.

Fu Xijing pointed at Jiang Zheng and Qiao Wan beside him, "These two are Jiang Lu's parents."

After Fu Xijing's reminder, Song Lansheng set his eyes on the center of the photo. After seeing Jiang Zheng's face, Song Lansheng zoomed in and observed it for a long time.

Jiang Zheng and Jiang Yuxu have three-quarters similar facial features, but their overall temperament is almost 80% to 90% similar.

Polite and distant, relatively gentle, without any sharp edges.

There is still a big difference between him and that person——

Song Lansheng scaled the photo back to its original size and was about to return the phone to Fu Xijing when his eyes suddenly caught sight of the lower left corner.

Her fingers trembled, her mind went blank, her eyes fixed on the man, her lips and nostrils trembling.

"What's wrong with you?" Fu Xijing asked immediately.

"This..." Song Lansheng didn't know how much effort he had put in before he raised his hand and pointed at the man. His voice was hoarse, "Who is he?"

Song Lansheng's reaction said it all.

She recognized Jiang Jiang.

Fu Xijing introduced her: "That's Jiang Lu's third uncle."

He observed Song Lansheng's expression, met her gaze, and asked tentatively, "Have you seen him?"
