Wu Wei cried in Director Wang's arms for a while before she composed herself, sat up, wiped the tears from her face with a silk handkerchief, and apologized, "I'm sorry, Aunt Wang, I cried and soaked your clothes..."
"It's nothing, I'm just glad you're alright!"
Can you tell me that this matter wasn't covered up by Fu Qingyao and Tian Juan?
How could it be exposed at this time?
What was the Wu family's reaction? Director Wang's curiosity was piqued; there must be more to the story, otherwise it wouldn't make sense!
After all, Zheng Daotong had already sacrificed himself, and Fu Qingyao was critically ill.
These secrets could have been kept hidden, which would have been good for everyone, but it would have been unfair to Zheng Ya.
But concealing the truth is the best solution.
Otherwise, how could the Wu family bear this situation?
Even if Zheng Ya knew who her birth mother was, the hurt might be even greater.
He had just recognized his birth mother, and now she was leaving him?
How could Zheng Ya bear to part with such a life-or-death separation and family ties?
Wu Wei said with a wry smile, "It's all because of that bad guy."
It was Zheng Ya who deserved the credit.
Yesterday, Zheng Ya killed more than three enemy agents who had ambushed him. I suggested that the old director report this to our security unit so that we could turn the tables and lure the enemy agents into an ambush, wiping them out in one fell swoop.
The former director thought the plan was feasible, so he called the classified unit to notify them.
The unit's security department and leadership discussed and decided to give it a try.
Then he deliberately revealed the news of transferring secrets and asked my adoptive mother, Fu Qingyao, to take the secrets back to Beijing.
The foster mother had always wanted to avenge Zheng Daotong. Her hair turned white overnight, which was true. The fact that she was seriously injured and beaten to death was an act by the foster mother to deceive the enemy agents.
Even I, the adopted daughter, was deceived by my adoptive mother.
So, the foster mother returned to Beijing with fake secrets, but as expected, she was intercepted by enemy agents who wanted to steal the secrets. As a result, most of them were killed by our security personnel who had set up an ambush, and a few were captured alive.
Just as everyone returned to the classified unit to interrogate the enemy agents, the enemy leadership, that is, the bad guy, announced all the secrets to the public. It was a revenge attack, seemingly a desperate attempt to steal secrets, and they didn't want anyone to have an easy time.
This despicable and shameless person is named Tao Sheng. His father's surname is Tao, and their surname is Sheng, so they combined their surnames into one name.
He was often ridiculed in the army, and people called him a deserter.
Tao Sheng was indeed cowardly and afraid of death. Every time he encountered an attack by the Japanese, he would hide in the trench, behind big trees and rocks, and fire into the air, just to survive and escape any chance to face the enemy.
But this guy was quick-witted and rose to become a cultural instructor by flattering others. He didn't have to go to the battlefield; he specialized in teaching cultural knowledge to the military and local armed forces.
I don't know how he became an enemy agent.
I always felt that my adoptive mother, Fu Qingyao, knew Tao Sheng's identity, but she didn't have the evidence to arrest him, so she pretended to be sick to trick him into getting caught.
Unexpectedly, Tao Sheng remained as cowardly as ever, choosing to hide on the periphery and wait for news of the successful interception of classified information. As a result, the mission failed, which may have provoked Tao Sheng, leading him to reveal the secrets of my and Zheng Ya's backgrounds.
Alas, the Wu family chose to remain silent on this matter.
He was probably seriously injured, wasn't he?
In the end, it was all for naught!
"I think Fu Qingyao is great. Pretending to be sick to lull the enemy into a false sense of security is one aspect. She probably guessed that all the cases were related to Tao Sheng and was afraid that Tao Sheng would deal with her son Zheng Ya. So she used the news of being seriously ill and dying to gain Tao Sheng's sympathy and spared no effort to protect Zheng Ya's safety."
It was also a scheme to lure Tao Sheng into the trap, expose his weaknesses, and then arrest him—a multi-pronged approach.
"To be honest, Fu Qingyao is the most remarkable woman I've ever met. She carried everything on her shoulders, something I couldn't do, I really couldn't do!" Director Wang didn't deny his own weakness; compared to Fu Qingyao's forbearance and sacrifice, he couldn't even begin to compare.
Wu Wei was greatly affected by this incident. It seems that she has grown up all of a sudden and figured out the childishness of her previous incomprehension and persistent pursuits, her rebellion against her adoptive mother, and how she ended up like this.
She was treated as her own daughter by her adoptive mother, who taught her for more than ten years without ever giving up on guiding and mentoring her!
Compared to her biological mother, Tian Juan, she might only catch a glimpse of her daughter from afar occasionally, but she never had a chance to be alone with her or have a heart-to-heart talk with her!
There's no harm in comparison!
Although Wu Wei knew that her birth mother was a workaholic who worked in a classified unit and had very little free time, Wu Wei had also seen her adoptive mother and birth mother get together. Why didn't she chat with her daughter for a bit?
The adoptive mother, Fu Qingyao, was generous and tolerant, and it was impossible for her to stop the conversation between the mother and daughter.
In fact, Tian Juan never spoke to her daughter even once.
I'll just take a look at it at most!
Not knowing who her birth mother was, only knowing that her mother was Fu Qingyao, Wu Wei's life was just like that, following her feelings!
Now that she knows who her biological mother is, Wu Wei simply cannot understand what kind of mentality a biological mother has towards her daughter.
Are they cold-blooded and heartless?
This left Wu Wei completely at a loss as to how to face her adoptive mother, Fu Qingyao; she was too ashamed to show her face!
His adoptive mother, Fu Qingyao, treated him like her own daughter, while his birth mother was indifferent and ignored him. How could he bear this?
As Wu Wei pondered, she murmured to herself, "How did I end up with such a cold-blooded birth mother?"
It's bad enough that they're cold and heartless towards me, their daughter.
Why doesn't she treat Zheng Ya better and let him enjoy a mother's love? It would make me, as Fu Qingyao's adopted daughter, feel better!
Why is this happening?
"Hey, girl, don't be so hard on yourself!"
In life, you should always think positively; only then can you live a good life.
Perhaps your birth mother, Tian Juan, was determined to keep the secret and didn't want the Wu family to know about these things and cause a huge mess. She also felt guilty for not giving Zheng Ya maternal love. Seeing your daughter enjoying the maternal love of your adoptive mother, Fu Qingyao, your birth mother couldn't bear to deprive your adoptive mother of her affection for you!
As a mother myself, I understand mothers' feelings best. There is no mother in the world who doesn't love her child.
If I were Tian Juan, I would be engaged in confidential work for the country, with no time or mood to be a mother, and I would neglect Zheng Ya and his son Zheng Daotong. How could I possibly steal the affection that Fu Qingyao has cultivated for you, my daughter?
As a mother, she is a failure! Director Wang was also filled with emotion, and more or less understood Tian Juan's helplessness and powerlessness.
Frankly speaking, in families where parents and children live together, how many parents and children can truly maintain a good relationship with each other?
Maybe a 99% failure rate?
Honestly, Director Wang is also a failed mother. Because of her work in the neighborhood, she always clashes with her children and has difficulty communicating with them. What can she do?
If it were someone like Tian Juan with a job, they would have even less time and energy to cultivate family and kinship relationships!
A mother can only bury her inner turmoil deep in her heart, with no one to understand and nowhere to confide in!
Perhaps countless midnight dreams are spent filled with guilt!
