"Little, little one." Qin Yumei looked at Su Xiaoxiao through teary eyes, her hands trembling slightly. She wanted to reach out and hug her, but she didn't dare.
She had always known that the girl in front of her was a very opinionated and principled child.
She also felt guilty for losing her child back then, and she had an unshirkable responsibility for it, so she forced Gu Tingjiang to find the child at all costs.
When she is with Su Xiaoxiao, she experiences a variety of complex emotions, including fear, trepidation, and anxiety, which leaves her at a loss.
Su Xiao remained seated, smiling at Qin Yumei, "If this report is true, and you agree with it, then I am indeed your daughter."
"It's true, it must be true." Qin Yumei nodded excitedly, her hand tightly gripping Gu Tingjiang's clothes beside her.
Gu Tingjiang noticed Qin Yumei's emotional fluctuations, covered her hand with his large hand to give her strength, and said to Su Xiao, "Of course it's true. Medical care is advanced abroad, so it can't be wrong."
Su Xiao nodded, looked at the two people opposite her, and said seriously, "Alright, since you have acknowledged it, you must have found out everything about my background. As the one who is recognizing my family, I also want to ask what exactly happened back then?"
Yes, I want to find out what happened back then and give the original owner an explanation.
Recognizing relatives doesn't mean that just by calling someone "Mom" and "Dad," everyone can be on good terms with each other.
Once you accept it, it becomes a responsibility, and you have to bear it regardless of whether it's good or bad.
This is also why, after arriving in Kyoto and learning that the original owner of this body was likely a child of the Gu or Qin family, she did not take the initiative to acknowledge her and insisted on obtaining evidence.
She was long past the age of needing love and didn't crave the attention of her family.
Sometimes, love can become a burden.
Although Su Xiao overheard some of Qin Huifang's conversation while treating her, the information was incomplete. As a victim of the incident, the original owner of this body had the right to know the truth, and she also needed to refer to this information to decide how to proceed in the future.
Su Xiao's question caused the atmosphere in the room to freeze for a moment.
"Ahem, we really need to make things clear." Old Master Gu stood up and said to Gu Yi, "It's too stuffy in the room, let's go out for some fresh air."
"Okay, okay, brother, I'll help you." Gu Yi understood immediately and stepped forward, and the two of them left the house.
Su Xiao watched and smiled the whole time.
With only the three of them left in the room, Qin Yumei nudged Gu Tingjiang, "You speak."
Gu Tingjiang's eyes flickered slightly, and he stammered, "I, I'll talk..."
His uneasy demeanor was a far cry from the dignified bearing he usually exuded when in a high position.
"Well, that's a long story," Gu Tingjiang said, clearing his throat.
Su Xiao glanced at her watch. "I have an hour left, so please keep it brief."
Gu Tingjiang looked embarrassed and began to tell their story.
"Back then, when your mother returned from studying abroad, the Qin family hosted a birthday party for her, which was actually also a matchmaking event. I was fortunate enough to receive an invitation and attend."
Little Xiao, you have no idea how many men's eyes were drawn when your mother slowly descended the spiral staircase.
Your mother is like a red plum blossom standing proudly in the snow, pure and gentle, and like an elf who has wandered into the mortal world, beautiful and moving..."
As Gu Tingjiang said this, he looked at Qin Yumei with deep affection.
Qin Yumei felt no gratitude, only a surge of anger on her forehead. She shoved his shameless face away, shouting, "Speak properly!"
Gu Tingjiang coughed awkwardly, then stubbornly added a concluding sentence, "...it suddenly barged into my heart."
