Does Chapter 58 look familiar?
Frustrated, Huo Zhenhua growled irritably, "Shut up!"
Wang Qinglin touched his nose dejectedly and got up to leave.
Before leaving, he added, "Stubborn to the end, still saying he doesn't like her. Ha! Serves him right!"
Meanwhile, after composing herself, Su Meng went to Xie Mian's room.
The old man happened to be here.
After greeting everyone with a smile, Su Meng solemnly said, "Grandma, Uncle, I am Su Meng, the daughter of Su Mianzhi from the Su family of Shanghai, and the granddaughter of Grandpa Su Zhensheng."
The moment she saw the old man, she knew he was the wife he had talked about until his death.
But the old man showed no reaction at all when he heard the names of Su Zhensheng and Su Mianzhi from the Su family in Shanghai.
A strange and bewildered look in someone's eyes doesn't lie.
She couldn't help but doubt her own judgment.
Xie Mian stared in astonishment at the little girl whose expression kept changing, feeling a pang of pity. "Xiao Meng, what do you want to say?"
Su Meng simply took out a family photo and a stack of well-preserved photos and handed them over, "Grandma, Uncle, this is the family photo."
Also, these are photos that Grandpa treasured.
She pursed her lips, clasped her hands together in front of her, and nervously twisted her fingers.
Meeting the old man's probing gaze, he grinned foolishly.
Xie Mian took in everything, a pang of sadness rising in his heart. Looking at the family photo, his mind was in turmoil: "So, you mean we're family?"
Su Meng's eyes lit up, and she nodded her head rapidly. The uneasy smile on her face suddenly blossomed like spring flowers.
"Uncle, you can see it too, can't you? Look right in the middle, that's Grandpa. You look a lot like Grandpa."
She excitedly pointed at the people in the family photo, her gaze shifting back and forth between the photo and Xie Mian.
Xie Mian held up the family photo and looked at it again and again. How come he didn't notice that he looked a lot like that person?
But he couldn't bear to hurt the little girl.
People come excitedly to claim kinship, so he accepts it.
He originally felt that he was destined to be with Su Meng and wanted to take this poor little girl home.
This child clearly needs love!
Some of her actions are similar to Xiao Qi's; she doesn't easily accept people getting close or intimate, nor does she easily open her heart to them.
Despite her harmonious and pleasant interactions with Wu Yanru and Cheng Wangshu, Xie Mian could immediately see the wariness and indifference in her smiling eyes.
Just like Xiaoqi, it will curl up in its own turtle shell.
Holding the family photo, he said cheerfully, "I don't even need to look to know we're a family. Don't forget, Xiaoqi has always been very attached to you, her older sister."
Su Meng thought that Xie Mian had acknowledged that they were long-lost relatives, and happily rubbed her hands together as she moved over in small steps, "Uncle, I knew you were the most perceptive."
Did you recognize me from the very beginning, which is why you kept following me on the train?
When you saw that enemy agent rushing over, you pulled me away without thinking.
You are protecting me.
Hehe! We're blood relatives, so of course we can sense each other.
At this moment, Su Meng completely forgot.
She had no feelings for Xie Mian, and not only reported him as an accomplice of enemy agents, but also killed him, knocked him unconscious, and sent him to the armed forces department.
Xie Mian naturally wouldn't bring up such unromantic topics, and he went along with her words, saying, "Yes! We must have been family in our past lives."
Otherwise, there's no way to explain why he would disobey orders and couldn't bring himself to kill her.
Upon hearing his words, Su Meng's high spirits were immediately dampened by a bucket of cold water.
She looked at Xie Mian in disbelief, tears instantly welling up in her eyes. She sighed helplessly, "Uncle, are you kidding me?"
After saying that, she took out another yellowed book from her pocket.
The characters on the pages are in traditional Chinese characters, and the running script inside is written in brush calligraphy, with each sentence written from top to bottom and from right to left.
"This is our Su family genealogy, which records the family rules, family precepts, and bloodline inheritance."
Uncle, take a look at this bloodline inheritance first.
This is the most crucial sentence regarding the bloodline inheritance of the Su family's direct line. Does it sound familiar?
She believed that the birthmarks on Xie Mian and Xiao Qi's shoulder blades were consistent with the bloodline of the Su family.
This is definitely not a coincidence!
Unless, of course, they are members of the Su family.
Xie Mian's pupils contracted sharply, his hand gripping the book trembled, and his expression was serious yet incredulous.
He looked at the old woman sitting to the side, carefully examining the photograph as if admiring a masterpiece, and whispered, "Mother?"
The old man seemed not to hear, his face calm, but he lingered on each photograph for longer and longer.
The photograph held between her fingers trembled, like a leaf blown by a gentle breeze.
The veins on the back of her hand, like earthworms, stretched over the bone and disappeared under the skin.
"Mother?" Xie Mian called out again.
The old man's hearing has always been very good, but he suffers from severe rheumatism, which causes him unbearable pain and makes it difficult for him to move around when the weather changes.
Therefore, he tries to bring Xiao Qi along when he goes on missions.
The elderly man asked his neighbors to help take care of him.
Xie Mian called out twice, but the old man didn't respond.
She was immersed in her own world.
Those photos unlocked the door to her long-sealed memories.
She picked up the photo of a man and a woman holding a little boy, sitting under a flower wall, smiling brightly and happily, and looked at it again and again.
The next second, a beam of light suddenly shone from her cloudy eyes, and large tears, like pearls, welled up.
Her fingers trembled as she slowly touched the man and the child in the photo.
A few breaths later, she let out a sob.
The sobbing sound was like grievances and longing bursting forth from the depths of the heart, sorrowful and lingering, bitter and painful.
Su Meng's heart clenched suddenly, a wave of sourness and bitterness surged up, and tears involuntarily streamed down her face.
She looked at Xie Mian in a panic, "Uncle..."
At this point, Xie Mian understood everything.
He closed his eyes tightly to control his emotions.
When he opened his eyes again, his face was calm, but the hand gripping his trouser leg showed a hard, bulging mound on his arm, the muscles taut and taut.
"It's alright! Let your grandma have some peace and quiet."
As far back as he can remember, there has never been a male head of the household.
He was always called a bastard by others, and was the target of the village children's beatings and scoldings.
At that time, he longed for his father and hoped that someone could help them.
But over the years, no one has shown up.
He grew from an ignorant wild child and a burden to a fisherman and a soldier.
His mother, whose hair had turned from black to white, also fell ill.
As he grew up, he never asked who his father was or why he didn't want him.
But now, he no longer needs his father, yet he has received news of him.
But we are now worlds apart, never to meet again.
Fate is cruel!
At this moment, he also understood why Su Meng's attitude towards him changed so suddenly, and he also understood how good Su Meng was to Xiao Qi.
That's never a girl's innate maternal instinct, but rather natural kinship.
"Xiaomeng, is there really no news of your father?" So, Su Mianzhi is his older brother.
Su Meng wiped away her tears, "I guess so! Once Ah Da is feeling better, we'll go find my dad together."
“Ah Da? Why don’t you go look for it now? I’ll go with you.”
The Su family was betrayed by villains, leaving her all alone. Xie Mian didn't want her to face danger alone.
After saying that, she forced herself to get out of bed, anxious to go and bring back her father, her own brother.
Su Meng quickly stopped him, "Uncle, let me go see Commander Tang first before you leave."
Now that we're on the island, let's meet Commander Tang.
"Commander Tang?" Xie Mian's heart skipped a beat.
So, Su Meng couldn't escape being interrogated after all. But the miniature camera really only passed through her hands once. What did she do wrong?
"Go and invite Commander Huo in. I have something to say."
Su Meng was puzzled and looked at the old woman with concern. Seeing that she was still engrossed in looking at the photos, she exchanged a glance with Xie Mian and asked, "Shout now?"
