Chapter 127 Jiang Weilong appears!
Lu Yuanzhou was so shocked that he was speechless. After a long silence, he stammered, "Mengxue, you...you said you are not your parents' biological child?"
He thought again about her parents' behavior just now, and felt that their attitude towards Su Mengxue was indeed different from that of other parents.
Su Mengxue didn't want to explain too much to him, and it was not easy to explain too much. After all, if she hadn't traveled through time, she wouldn't know this secret.
After thinking for a while, she said, "Lu Yuanzhou, the reason I told you so much is because I don't want you to be exploited by them because of me. In a word, just don't give them money."
Lu Yuanzhou nodded and began to feel sorry for Su Mengxue. Looking at their posture just now, he could imagine how Su Mengxue had survived all these years.
He replied with a distressed look on his face: "Mengxue, those years you spent in the countryside must have been very difficult, right?"
When Su Mengxue heard him say this, she suddenly didn't know how to respond. After all, it was not her who had gone through these difficulties, but the original owner. She could only choose to remain silent.
Lu Yuanzhou thought she just didn't want to talk about it. He looked at her gently, tears in his eyes as he said, "Mengxue, there will never be a day like that again. Believe me."
He said this not only to Su Mengxue, but also to himself. He secretly swore in his heart that he would never let Su Mengxue suffer any grievances again.
Su Mengxue certainly knew that such days would never come again, and she also understood what Lu Yuanzhou meant, but it is better to rely on oneself than on others, so she only wanted to rely on herself in the future.
Lu Yuanzhou considered it for a moment and asked cautiously, "Mengxue, do you know where your biological parents are?"
Su Mengxue shook her head: "I don't know."
"Have you ever thought about finding your biological parents?"
Su Mengxue was stunned. She was not the original owner, so she had never thought about this problem before. Now that Lu Yuanzhou brought it up, she realized this problem.
She remembered that the book said that the original owner was bought back. As for whether her biological parents appeared in the later plot, she had no idea as she had only read half of the book.
However, she guessed that the original owner was most likely abandoned. After all, in this era of favoring boys over girls, she was a daughter, and was bought by the couple with money. No one had ever come to look for her in all the years she had been in the Su family.
She replied calmly, "No."
Seeing her indifferent attitude, Lu Yuanzhou guessed what she was thinking.
What he wanted to say was stuck in his throat, but he was afraid that Su Mengxue had misunderstood her biological parents. Wouldn't that mean there would be two less people who loved her in the world?
He considered it for a moment, then spoke: "Mengxue, what if you were also abducted like Jiang Shiyi? Or did they have their own reasons?"
Su Mengxue was stunned again when she thought about how the Jiang family had tried their best to find Jiang Shiyi over the years.
Seeing that Su Mengxue didn't reject what he said, he continued, "Maybe they're also looking for you like crazy right now. Don't you want to know the truth? I'm afraid that if this is true, you'll lose two people who truly love you. Or maybe even more, and there will be more people like the Jiang family in this world who are filled with regret and sadness."
He added, "If you were really abandoned by them, from now on, you won't have to think about it anymore, and you won't have anything to regret."
Su Mengxue thought of the poor original owner. Since she occupied her body, she felt that it was her responsibility to help the original owner find out the truth about her life experience.
But she was completely bewildered. Trying to find these two people she had never met was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Her eyes darkened. The only clues she could find were Su Daqiang and Wu Xianghong.
She quickly made up her mind and temporarily gave up the idea of looking for Gu Yunting. She decided to find the original owner's biological parents before joining the army and ask them to help her find out the truth.
Otherwise, if she joined the army, she would be gone for several years. If the original owner's adoptive parents were really looking for her, they would probably suffer for several more years. Although she missed Gu Yunting very much, she knew what was more important. Fortunately, they still had plenty of time in the future.
She spoke to Lu Yuanzhou absentmindedly for a few words and then let him go back.
The next day at noon, Su Mengxue sat with the two of them again at the Guomao Hotel. She asked directly, "Who are my biological parents, and where are they?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap. Su Daqiang and Wu Xianghong looked at each other, so shocked that they were speechless.
In the end, it was Wu Xianghong who reacted first. She said coldly, "You silly girl, what do you mean by that? We are your biological parents, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Su Mengxue expected that they wouldn't tell the truth, so she asked in a deep voice, "Since I'm asking this, it means I know about this. Do you still want to continue lying to me? Child trafficking is punishable by law. Didn't you say you wanted me to report you to the police station?"
Su Daqiang stood up from his chair, raised his finger and pointed at her, angrily scolding: "Silly girl, they sold you back then, and we paid for it. What right do you have to call the police?"
Su Mengxue looked at him coldly and whispered, "So, you admit that I'm not your biological child, but that you bought me?"
"This, this..." Su Daqiang had already said it, and there was no point in saying anything else. He lowered his head and glanced at Wu Xianghong beside him, not daring to breathe.
Wu Xianghong glared at him fiercely, then turned to Su Mengxue and said, "You were abandoned by your family back then. Your father and I took you in out of pity. We gave them some money to prevent them from harassing you again. We were clearly doing a good deed, so how did this become a crime? Besides, we raised you out of kindness, but now you want to sue us. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Su Mengxue was too lazy to watch their acting anymore and said solemnly, "Alright, stop acting here. As long as you tell me where they are, I won't go to the police station to report the case. Otherwise, I will definitely not let you off easily. You can do whatever you want."
Wu Xianghong blurted out, "If you want to report it, go ahead. It's up to you. We don't know anything anyway. You're trying to convict us with nothing to prove. Who are you trying to fool? Do you think we were brought up in fear?"
She said this to Su Mengxue, and also wanted to test her to see if she had any evidence.
She had been wondering how this damned girl knew about this. The sister-in-law who had facilitated this whole thing was long dead, so who could possibly have told her about it? Actually, what she had just said was the truth. They were only dealing with the middleman, and they didn't know where he was from or what his background was. This was the rule of the underworld, and it was also to avoid any future entanglements.
Su Mengxue saw that her attitude was very tough. She had no evidence, so it was difficult for her to report the case.
Just as she was thinking about how to continue asking questions, she heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Su Mengxue, I've already asked for leave from the tailor shop for you. Come with me back to the Jiang family to see Nian Nian."
