When Li Zhenzhen returned home from the incubation room, Chen Jiaojiao had been sitting in the living room waiting all afternoon, with a meal already prepared on the table.
Li Zhenzhen was a little surprised to see that she didn't have to cook, but she didn't show it. She just washed her hands and came to the dining table.
The mother and daughter ate dinner quietly. Li Zhenzhen could tell that Chen Jiaojiao was distracted the whole time, but yesterday's events still disappointed and angered her, so even though she could tell that Chen Jiaojiao had something on her mind, Li Zhenzhen didn't bother to ask.
She recently started helping out in Mo Bao'er's nursery. Because she is diligent and knows her place, she gets along well with Mo Bao'er. Li Zhenzhen is very satisfied with everything, except for her daughter who is always confused.
Jiaojiao used to be a very smart and obedient child, but ever since that incident, she has become more and more extreme and impulsive, even more reckless than during her rebellious phase, which is really baffling.
Chen Jiaojiao had been holding back for a long time. She had been thinking about it all afternoon, but she still didn't know what to do.
To be honest, her father and aunt have always loved her very much, but when she saw their names appear in the aid information from another district, the staff asked her what was wrong. She was afraid that they would affect her current life, so she immediately denied it.
She later secretly went to the work area to take a look, where two elderly people with gray hair were sitting together, sorting the recycled metal parts.
Wearing a hat and mask, Chen Jiaojiao peeked outside. If the two people's facial features hadn't changed much, she would have found it hard to believe that they were her once glamorous and wealthy father and aunt.
The first thing she wanted to ask her mother when she got home was what to do. She also felt sorry for her father and aunt, but the Mo family had already stopped pursuing her mistakes. Would they be willing to support two more idle people?
Besides, they're both so old. If they really lived together, she would inevitably have to take care of them, and Chen Jiaojiao didn't want to live that kind of life.
But Li Zhenzhen didn't come back, so Chen Jiaojiao spent the whole afternoon at home lost in thought and struggle. When her mother came home in the evening, she found herself unable to speak.
Although she and Li Zhenzhen are mother and daughter, she has never really been sure about how her mother acts.
For example, she thought she looked down on Gao Ren, but she still slept with him. She thought she had accepted her fate and decided to follow Gao Ren to make a name for herself, but Gao Ren died at her hands.
Chen Jiaojiao felt that her mother had always distrusted her and kept everything from her. This distrust made Chen Jiaojiao feel that she could be abandoned by Li Zhenzhen at any time.
But she also knew very well that her mother was really smart and could always find the most advantageous path for herself.
Li Zhenzhen came out of the kitchen, and Chen Jiaojiao blocked her way: "I met two people in another district today, they are our relatives."
Chen Jiaojiao did not directly reveal the identities of these two relatives because she wanted to see Li Zhenzhen's reaction first.
Li Zhenzhen frowned, her mood clearly affected. In this kind of living environment, relatives without power or influence are just a burden, so she naturally wouldn't feel comfortable hearing such news.
"What relatives? Did you speak to them? If they are sensible relatives, it's fine if you want to help them," Li Zhenzhen said calmly.
After leaving home due to an unmarried pregnancy, she severed ties with her family. Therefore, the only relatives Chen Jiaojiao knew were from the Chen family. Li Zhenzhen had no intention of associating with those people. As for Jiaojiao's personality, she was not that kind and selfless.
Chen Jiaojiao could tell that Li Zhenzhen was unwilling. If it were just an ordinary relative, Chen Jiaojiao would have kept quiet about it, but her biological father was involved.
Moreover, she went to another district today to look at the information registration form. If their relationship is exposed in the future, there will definitely be bad gossip about her. She thought about it repeatedly all afternoon before she was sure that Li Jia did it on purpose.
If she doesn't find a way to smooth things over, Li Jia will definitely find an opportunity to expose this relationship. What an annoying person!
“Those two people are different!” Chen Jiaojiao took a deep breath before continuing, “Those are my father and my aunt.”
Li Zhenzhen was taken aback: "What? Are you sure?"
Chen Jiaojiao was absolutely certain: "It's them. I saw their names and I saw them in person. They've aged a lot."
Li Zhenzhen walked slowly to the living room with a thoughtful expression. After sitting down on the sofa, she asked, "When did you find them? How did you find them? What did you say to them?"
Chen Jiaojiao sat down next to her, her face equally furrowed, and replied, "I only found out this afternoon. They were sorting through the trash outside. I just stood outside and looked at them without talking to them or recognizing them. They probably don't know we're here yet."
Li Zhenzhen's mind was also a bit confused. If it were only Chen Niansheng, the situation would be a little better, but it wasn't really that good either. She didn't want another incompetent man to appear by her side at all.
But what's worse is that Chen Ziyue is also with Chen Niansheng. This woman is even more troublesome. Her life has turned out this way entirely because of her.
Thinking of all this, Li Zhenzhen couldn't help but snap irritably, "What are you doing running off to other districts? Did you go to see that Fu Hao again? Have you lost your mind? Aren't you satisfied with your life?"
Hearing this barrage of questions, Chen Jiaojiao was also furious. She retorted loudly, "I didn't! It was all Li Jia's fault!"
Hearing this, Li Zhenzhen felt utterly exhausted. If she could, she would really like to throw this idiot away. Confused, she asked, "What does this have to do with Li Jia? Did you have another conflict with him?"
