Meng Fuyan raised an eyebrow. "Do I need to explain again?"
Gu Tingzhi was shocked, "Tonight? At home? Your mother is still here, we..."
"Just be discreet. You can come quietly without Mom knowing. I missed you!"
Sometimes, she really knows how to coax men. Regardless of the reason, Gu Tingzhi's heart melts when he hears her, and he can't wait to take her right now.
"I can do it now."
Meng Fuyan glared at him when she saw his dark circles under his eyes, and said, "Go to sleep!"
After days of travel, Gu Tingzhi was exhausted and fell asleep quickly.
Meng Fuyan came downstairs after he fell asleep, and Meng Suqin sat in a daze on the backyard corridor.
"Mom, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing Meng Fuyan come downstairs, Meng Suqin smiled and asked, "Is Tingzhi asleep?"
"Yeah, I'm exhausted from all that running around, I just collapsed and fell asleep."
Seeing that she seemed a little absent-minded, Meng Fuyan went over to comfort her, "Mom, don't think too much. Anyway, you're not fully recovered yet, and you need to recuperate for a while longer. We'll go back with you when you're fully recovered. We have to go back to see Yunji and have our family reunite."
Meng Suqin smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'm just feeling a bit sentimental. Of course, it's a good thing to be able to go back. That's where the Meng family is. As long as I can go back, Mom will naturally still prefer home."
The Meng family's roots are in China, where she grew up. Her daughter could study abroad, but she doesn't need to; she still wants to go home.
Even if she wasn't with Lu Guozhong, she still wanted to go back.
The past is just a past that can never be returned to.
Meng Fuyan sat down next to her and said, "That's good. Everything is fine at home now. You can stay in Kyoto if you want after you go back. If you want to go back to Changning City, you can take Yunji back with you. I've cleaned the house very well. By the way, Uncle Lu and Aunt Qin are having a fight, and Uncle Lu is staying at our house!"
Meng Suqin was taken aback. "Your Uncle Lu is living in our house? Are he and your Aunt Qin getting a divorce?"
Otherwise, why would the couple be separated?
Meng Fuyan shook her head. "Probably not. After all, there are three children. Uncle Lu would never be willing to part with the three older brothers of the Lu family. Even for the sake of his son, he wouldn't easily get a divorce."
"The reason I moved away was because Aunt Qin disappointed her too much. Aunt Qin had always targeted me and Yunji because we looked like Uncle Lu. She always thought that Yunji and I were Uncle Lu's illegitimate children and hated us. Later, after I dealt with the Wu family and the Zhang family, when I was still a sent-down youth, I went home for the New Year. In order to humiliate me, she went to my house to arrange a marriage for me, to marry me off to her playboy brother."
Meng Suqin's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief. "What? There's such a thing? She... she doesn't want to make things right?"
Meng Fuyan shrugged. "Who knows? Uncle Lu had already refused before, and even had a fight with her, but she still went to my house and confronted me face to face, completely abandoning all pretense of civility. In the end, I retaliated against the Qin family. Uncle Qin was locked up in jail. My two older brothers met and discussed breaking up and rebuilding the Qin family. If we don't suppress them, they'll cause big trouble sooner or later. They're too arrogant!"
Meng Suqin was both angry and speechless. She knew Qin Qiongying somewhat, but she had never realized she was so foolish! Was she trying to ruin the whole family by causing this kind of trouble?
No wonder the two sons tore down the Qin family's house.
Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "These are not big matters. Just know about them. I will tell you everything that has happened in the family over the past few years. Now I want to tell you something else. Mom, I haven't told Tingzhi about my relationship with Yunji's biological father. There's no need to explain anything for now, and there may not be a need in the future. Even if you are with Dad, there's really no need for us to go to the Lu family."
Meng Suqin was stunned. "What do you mean? You don't want to acknowledge your father?"
Meng Fuyan shook her head. "No, I just feel it's unnecessary. I'm a daughter of the Meng family, so I'll just take the surname Meng. As for Yun Ji, we can ask him after we get back to China before making a decision."
“Although that woman is an enemy agent, no matter what, Yunji and I have dishonorable identities. Outsiders might use that to attack you and Dad, so why bother explaining anything? After you marry him, we can still call him Dad. We know that ourselves. There’s no need to explain to everyone that we are both Lu family’s biological children. If someone guesses it in the future, so be it. We’ll just keep it to ourselves.”
Meng Suqin frowned. "Your father is not young anymore, and he doesn't have any other children besides the two of you. I doubt he will agree."
"So what? Do you really want to turn us into illegitimate children?"
Meng Suqin panicked, "Yanyan, that's not what Mom meant. I... I was wrong back then..."
“You’re not bad, and I don’t blame you for anything. There’s nothing wrong with the choice you made back then. It’s just that I’m all grown up now, and I don’t need the identity of being a daughter of the Lu family to give me any advantage. Our Meng family doesn’t have an heir. So what if I’m surnamed Meng? I grew up in the Meng family, so I’m a child of the Meng family. I have no interest in going to the Lu family.”
"But Mom, don't misunderstand. I don't hate Dad. I just don't want to leave any evidence against him, and there's no need for that."
She didn't care whether she went back to the Lu family or not; it was fine as long as she had the surname Meng now, and she was used to it.
Meng Suqin sighed, "But the Gu family isn't exactly a good family either. If you marry Tingzhi, the Lu family's daughter will have an even greater advantage."
