When Ye Qing asked her, Huang Fei shook her head: "No, although I knew long ago that I was not the biological daughter of the Huang family, I didn't know who my biological mother was. I only realized something from my parents' attitude. It wasn't until Yang Xiujuan came to ask me for money that I found out who my biological mother was. I didn't know that Aunt Zhang went to work at your house later. I found out from Yang Xiujuan."
Ye Qing scoffed and looked at Aunt Zhang: "Did you hear that? Now you're trying to show your maternal love? Don't you think it's a bit too late?"
"Ye Qing..." Aunt Zhang called out hesitantly, then looked at Huang Fei after seeing Ye Qing's indifferent expression: "Back then..."
Huang Fei glanced at Zhang Sao and said in a very calm tone, "What you did back then is your business. Although I just told Ye Qing that I hoped she could put herself in your shoes, it was really just because I didn't want her to waste food. I really didn't mean to ask her to acknowledge you, because I didn't even have that intention, so why should I ask others to?"
The reason why Aunt Zhang rushed in to speak up for Huang Fei was because she had been listening quietly outside for a long time and felt that Huang Fei's words seemed to be speaking up for her.
However, Huang Fei's words plunged her into despair. Aunt Zhang seemed unable to accept it: "Feifei, you..."
Huang Fei glanced at Zhang Sao, who was clearly very hurt, and said, "If there is anything that can help me let go of my past, it is my feelings."
Upon hearing Huang Fei's words, Aunt Zhang took two steps back in disbelief.
To be honest, not only did Aunt Zhang find it hard to believe, but Ye Qing, Xi Quan, and Xu Xiaoyue also found it hard to believe after hearing Huang Fei's words. After all, although Huang Fei's words did not explicitly mean to speak up for Aunt Zhang, it didn't seem like he was blaming her.
Her attitude towards Aunt Zhang now is clearly somewhat different from before.
After her initial surprise, Ye Qing sneered, "Huang Fei, you don't need to do this. I did speak up for you just now, but only because I dislike Aunt Zhang even more. You don't need to say this just to get my help."
"Can I talk to you alone?" Huang Fei asked after staring at Ye Qing for a while.
Ye Qing glanced at Huang Fei, not really wanting to say anything to him, but Xi Quan spoke up: "Let's go out first, you two can talk first."
Hearing Xi Quan's words, Ye Qing gave him a very dissatisfied look.
Xi Quan walked to Ye Qing's side, kissed her forehead, and whispered gently in her ear, "We always have to face this, so let's just make it clear at once. I'm sure you don't want to have to face these annoying things again and again, right?"
Although Ye Qing still looked at Xi Quan with dissatisfaction, the resentment in her eyes was not as obvious as before.
Xi Quan kissed Ye Qing on the forehead again and said, "I'll be right outside. Just call me if you need anything."
After he finished speaking, Xi Quan went out first, and Xu Xiaoyue followed him out.
Although Aunt Zhang wanted to have a good talk with Ye Qing and Huang Fei, she left after looking back several times under their indifferent gazes.
Only Ye Qing and Huang Fei remained in the ward. The silence was almost unsettling. Finally, Ye Qing spoke first: "Just say what you have to say."
"I know you have misunderstood me, and I don't want to explain anything. After all, just as you guessed, I revealed my background so that I could be with the man I love openly in the future, and I never deny that!"
Besides that, I really have no other thoughts. When I said I called the police and Yang Xiujuan was arrested, it was for your own good. That's truly what I meant. In my opinion, since she extorted money and you have the funds, she'd find you sooner or later. But from what you just said, I can tell you probably have some connection with Yang Xiujuan. I apologize for my presumptuousness earlier.”
Huang Fei spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, nor did he conceal his purpose.
Ye Qing felt that perhaps she had really misunderstood Huang Fei; maybe that was just her personality.
"You still don't believe me?" Huang Fei asked, frowning.
"No." Ye Qing shook her head. She didn't disbelieve Huang Fei, but she wouldn't completely change her opinion of her just because Huang Fei said that. Ye Qing was still a little resistant and didn't really want to admit that Huang Fei was her sister.
It wasn't because her sister was Huang Fei, but also because Ye Qing didn't want to acknowledge anyone.
Although they already knew about their background and other details, they could still deceive themselves and act as if nothing had happened when they didn't know the truth or who their parents were.
But now that I finally know who my sister is and who my biological mother is, I have to face it.
Ye Qing also gets tired. She wonders why she always has to face such endless desolation and misery.
"I can roughly understand your thoughts. Actually, I don't want to know who my biological mother is either, so I won't have to face my background. Because putting aside my romantic issues, my adoptive parents have been very good to me. But if I knew my background and who my biological mother is, even if I don't acknowledge her, I would still have to face some things, such as our relationship."
We used to be able to handle things professionally, but now it's awkward. I've even thought that maybe we should stop contacting each other altogether. But I've liked that person for ten years, and the facts that have stood between us all these years... you can't understand unless you've experienced it. So now I finally see a glimmer of hope, and I'll hold on to it with all my might.
Even if you think acknowledging or denying our relationship won't affect my feelings, I want to hold on because it implicitly proves that I and the person I love are actually very far apart. We have each other's families; we are just lovers, not family.
Although it was said in a very veiled way, Ye Qing roughly understood what Huang Fei meant.
He must really like that person, so Huang Fei is now going to great lengths to prove that they actually have no relationship whatsoever.
After understanding all this, Ye Qing was no longer so averse to facing Huang Fei.
Seeing that Ye Qing's emotions were not as resistant as before, Huang Fei said, "Really, don't punish yourself for other people's mistakes, because it's really not worth it. Although it seems that I am doing better than you, you are happier than me in terms of relationships, so you may not be able to understand my thoughts. But I still want to say, hold on to what belongs to you. Right now, the most important thing for you is your child. Don't let your child suffer any more accidents because of punishing others."
At this moment, Ye Qing felt a warm feeling in her heart.
Xi Quan had said similar things before, but Ye Qing didn't really listen. Now, however, Ye Qing listened, as this seemed to be the first time she had truly received genuine care from a family member.
