Chapter 137: Su Mengxue meets the Lu couple!
In a blink of an eye, it was time for the Lu family banquet. Su Mengxue asked for leave from the master early, and in the afternoon, Jiang Weilong arrived as scheduled.
After she got in the car, she couldn't wait to ask, "Jiang Weilong, have you asked for Gu Yunting's address on the island?"
A hint of darkness first flashed across Jiang Weilong's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He replied calmly, "It's almost here." Then he handed her the note in his pocket.
Su Mengxue excitedly reached out to take the note, and after reading the address, a smile immediately broke out on her face.
Jiang Weilong saw Su Mengxue's emotions, but he was not too angry this time. The address was wrong anyway, and no matter how many letters Su Mengxue wrote, Gu Yunting would not receive them.
His eyes darkened and he said, "Please keep this note. If you lose it, I won't help you get it back."
Su Mengxue smiled at Jiang Weilong and said sincerely, "Thank you, Jiang Weilong, you reminded me. In order to prevent the note from being lost, I will remember the address in my head."
After saying that, she stared at the note intently, began to read it silently, and then memorized it.
Seeing her serious look, Jiang Weilong said nothing, turned around and started the car with a cold face.
After they arrived at the Lu family's old house, Jiang Weilong forcefully pulled Su Mengxue's hand.
"Jiang Weilong, what are you doing?" Su Mengxue said as she struggled to get rid of Jiang Weilong's hand, but he held it even tighter.
Jiang Weilong looked at her and said calmly, "Su Mengxue, there are too many people here. I'm holding your hand because I'm afraid we'll get separated. Don't think too much."
After he finished speaking, he did not allow Su Mengxue to refute. He took her hand and walked through the bustling crowd towards Lu Zhihe and Zhou Huizhen who were surrounded by people.
"Uncle Lu, Aunt Zhou, long time no see. Are you both doing well?" Jiang Weilong said, then pointed to Su Mengxue behind him and introduced them, "Mengxue, this is Uncle Lu and Aunt Zhou."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Mengxue calmly broke free from Jiang Weilong's hand. She looked up at the well-dressed Lu couple in front of her.
The man stood tall and straight, wearing a Mao suit without a single wrinkle, a watch on his wrist, and his hair was combed meticulously, but it was completely white. His every move was full of rigor and composure.
Looking at the woman again, she was wearing a Dacron dress and her hair was tied into a bun, revealing her smooth forehead. Her face looked a little haggard, and there were many fine lines at the corners of her eyes. It was obvious that she had not taken care of her skin. She did not have too many decorations on her body, just a pair of pearl earrings on her ears.
Although the other people in the circle she and Su Mengxue had come into contact with were much more plain, she exuded an unconcealable gentle temperament, and it was obvious that she was well educated. Not only that, she also felt a low aura from the woman, and she guessed it was because of the lost child.
She was about to respond when she was suddenly stunned. A thick purple light suddenly appeared on both of them. The purple was so dazzling that she couldn't help but squint her eyes.
When their eyes met, she felt that the two of them seemed familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before. However, she quickly dismissed this idea. She was not from this era, so how could she have seen them before?
Seeing that she was silent, Jiang Weilong whispered, "Mengxue, what are you doing? Call for help."
Su Mengxue finally came to her senses. She pulled her lips together and revealed a polite smile. She said respectfully, "Uncle Lu, Aunt Zhou, hello. My name is Su Mengxue."
Zhou Huizhen, who was just greeting everyone, was instantly distracted when she saw the girl named Su Mengxue suddenly appear in front of her. Her mind went blank, and after a brief daze, her eyes stared at Su Mengxue's face intently.
Then her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably. She wanted to say something but her throat seemed to be blocked and she couldn't make a sound.
Then she unconsciously moved closer to Su Mengxue, and when she got in front of her, her eyes instantly became wet.
After a long silence, she covered her chest with her hands and timidly asked, "Child, who are you? Where do you live? How old are you? Who else is in your family?"
After she said this, she stared at Su Mengxue's face and cried.
Not only Su Mengxue noticed something strange about Zhou Huizhen, but Lu Zhi, Jiang Weilong and everyone present who were standing beside her also noticed her changes.
When Su Mengxue heard her ask this, she probably guessed that Zhou Huizhen thought of her long-lost daughter after seeing her. When she saw Zhou Huizhen crying, she suddenly felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart.
She pursed her lips, looked at Zhou Huizhen, and said unnaturally, "Aunt Zhou, my name is Su Mengxue. I'm from the countryside. I'm 22 years old. I have parents and two brothers at home."
Zhou Huizhen's eyes darkened for a moment after hearing this, but she still pressed on, "Are you your parents' biological daughter?"
After she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong. After thinking about it again and again, she quickly added: "I want to ask if your parents are good to you? Have you ever doubted your own life experience?"
Su Mengxue didn't know how to answer her in front of everyone.
Seeing Su Mengxue remained silent, Zhou Huizhen eagerly explained, "You just said you have two brothers. Could it be that your parents adopted you because they didn't have a daughter? I know this is our first meeting, and it's very rude of me to say this, but I...actually...actually, I just want to say that my daughter was lost when she was very young. You look a lot like me when I was young, and you're the same age as my daughter. So...is it possible that you are my daughter?"
Zhou Huizhen was already in tears when she finished speaking. She wiped her tears with her hands, suppressed her emotions, and said with tears in her eyes: "Look at your eyes and mouth, they look exactly like me when I was young. I'm not lying to you, you really look like me when I was young, exactly the same..."
She looked around and kept repeating this sentence to everyone, hoping that they and Su Mengxue would believe what she said.
Su Mengxue stood there in a daze. She looked at Zhou Huizhen and gradually realized that not only did the original owner look very similar to Zhou Huizhen, but she also looked very similar to Zhou Huizhen.
She was a little confused for a moment, and increasingly suspected that there had been some kind of connection between her and the original owner, which was why her soul was transported to the original owner's body?
Everyone had long known about Zhou Huizhen and Lu Zhi's lost child, and they had also heard that Zhou Huizhen would randomly identify girls of the same age as their child, so they did not pay too much attention to Su Mengxue.
Instead, he looked at Zhou Huizhen with a gloomy expression, feeling both sympathy and helplessness towards her.
Seeing that no one believed her, Zhou Huizhen was about to continue explaining when she suddenly thought of something. She grabbed Su Mengxue's hand and asked with longing eyes, "Child, my daughter has a birthmark on her lower back. Do you have a birthmark on your lower back?"
