After getting off the car, Yi Wei dragged his suitcase and stood outside the gate of a villa surrounded by lush greenery and a quiet environment. This was where he had lived for ten years and had the memories of his happiest time.
Yi Wei walked to the side, opened the wooden box covering the screen on the wall, pressed his finger on the screen, and the iron door opened automatically.
Yi Wei walked in dragging his suitcase. A middle-aged woman walked out of the house quickly. After seeing Yi Wei, she quickened her pace and trotted towards him.
"Ivy!" Anna shouted happily as she looked at Yi Wei.
"Anna." Yi Wei was also a little excited and hugged Anna tightly who came to greet him.
Anna was the one who had taken care of him and accompanied him since he came to this family. Yi Wei missed Anna very much in the past few years, but after leaving this family, because his so-called biological parents did not want him to come back, in order to consider their feelings, he really never came back. Yi Wei felt very guilty and felt like crying while hugging Anna.
Anna asked the maid who followed behind her to take Yi Wei's suitcase away, then took Yi Wei's hand and walked quickly into the house: "Hurry, follow me."
Yi Wei was a little confused and didn't know what made her so anxious.
After entering the hall, Yi Wei saw a person sitting in a wheelchair with his back to him. He was stunned with surprise.
"Madam..." Anna called out.
The wheelchair slowly turned around. Sitting in the wheelchair was a woman who was a bit old but still very beautiful. She stared at Yi Wei for a while and then called out, "Yvi?"
"..." Yi Wei opened his mouth and shouted with some difficulty: "Mom, do you still remember me?"
"How could I not remember you?" Michelle stretched out her hand to Yi Wei and said with a smile, "Come here."
Yi Wei walked to Michelle's side. Michelle took Yi Wei's hand and asked him to sit on the sofa next to them.
Mi Xue carefully observed Yi Wei's expression for a while, raised her hand to touch his face and asked: "Are they nice to you?"
"..." After being silent for a while, Yi Wei smiled and nodded.
"Why did you lie to me?" Michelle looked into Yi Wei's eyes and said, "If they were good to you, why would there be such traces of sadness in your eyes? They hurt you, didn't they?"
Yi Wei immediately lowered his eyes. He forgot for a moment that his adoptive mother was a very good psychology expert. She was so good that she could almost see through other people's hearts at a glance.
"They... weren't mean to me." Yi Wei knew that the sadness his adoptive mother saw in his eyes was mostly left over from his previous life.
Mi Xue looked at Yi Wei's face and thought for a while before saying, "But they treated the other child better. In order not to wrong him, they wronged you, and they wronged you all the time. After they got used to it, they wronged you more and more, right?"
Michelle had seen so many cases in the past that she didn't need to analyze them in depth or continue to observe them. Just a little thought would tell her what Yi Wei's situation was like in the Yi family.
Yi Wei knew that even if he lied, he couldn't fool his adoptive mother, so he just remained silent.
"I'm sorry." Mi Xue apologized to Yi Wei and said guiltily: "I thought they were your biological parents and they came to you specifically to take you back home, so they would naturally treat you well, so I agreed to let them take you away. If I had known it would be like this..."
Yi Wei shook his head and said, "This... is all fate's arrangement."
"Cry if you want to, and vent all the grievances in your heart. You are home now, and you don't have to endure it anymore." Mi Xue looked at Yi Wei and said.
Yi Wei rested his head on his adoptive mother's knees, tears streaming down his face.
Michelle stroked Yi Wei's hair and just stayed with him quietly.
Anna, who was standing by, couldn't help but shed tears as she watched Yi Wei crying.
When Yi Wei came to this family when he was four years old, Anna was responsible for taking care of him because his adoptive parents were very busy. Yi Wei could only see his adoptive parents a few times in a year, but every time he met them, he was very happy because he knew that his adoptive parents were great people and he admired them very much in his heart.
Michelle and her husband had agreed before they got married that they did not plan to have children. Yi Xuan's biological mother was a good friend of Michelle. Knowing that she had a terminal illness, she repeatedly asked Michelle to adopt Yi Wei before she died. Michelle initially refused her long-time friend and promised to find a suitable family to raise Yi Wei, but she was not at ease with any other family and kept begging Michelle. Michelle agreed to adopt Yi Wei because of their many years of friendship. Only then did Yi Xuan's biological mother pass away peacefully.
Although Michelle and her husband are very busy, they still attach great importance to Yi Wei's upbringing. Even though they have not taken care of Yi Wei personally, they have never let Yi Wei lack companionship. In addition to the gentle Anna who always accompanies him and takes care of him, there are five tutors who are responsible for providing him with life guidance, academic guidance and artistic guidance.
Before returning to China, Yi Wei had many friends here. They studied together, played together, did volunteer work together, went on study tours together, and took turns hosting parties at each other's homes. Because of his adoptive parents' reputation and fame, the parents of those friends were also very considerate and polite to him.
Studying, playing, and exercising, Yi Wei lives a very fulfilling life every day here, so before returning to the Yi family, although he was not particularly lively, he had a very cheerful personality. After returning to the Yi family, Yi Wei's personality slowly changed.
Because of an accident, his adoptive father died and his adoptive mother became disabled in both legs. His adoptive mother was overwhelmed by the loss of her beloved and was ready to follow her lover, but failed.
Michelle couldn't bear such a blow. She became mentally ill because of the excessive pain. She locked herself in the room and refused to see anyone except Anna.
When Yi Hong and Zhao Zhen came and wanted to take Yi Wei back home, Michelle's mental state was normal only for a short period of time. Anna told her about the situation. She felt that the child was taken away by mistake rather than abandoned. They took great pains to find this place and wanted to take Yi Wei back home. As Yi Wei's biological parents, they would naturally treat him well. Given her current situation, no one knew what else she would do, which might cause psychological trauma to Yi Wei and be detrimental to Yi Wei's growth, so he agreed to let them take Yi Wei back.
Other psychologists and psychological experts were unable to treat Michelle because she was too powerful and could immediately see through all the psychologists' intentions and then resist. Over the years, she relied on herself to slowly get over the pain. The process was painful and difficult, but she finally got over it.
Yi Wei really wanted to come back and take a look, but it just so happened that Mi Xue was the daughter of the Mi family, and the Yi family and the Mi family had been at odds with each other for many years. Yi Hong and Zhao Zhen didn't want Yi Wei to have any contact with anyone from the Mi family.
"Mom, can I stay here for a few days?" Yi Wei asked Michelle.
"You can stay as long as you want. Anna will be happy if you can stay longer." Michelle turned to look at Anna and said, "Right, Anna?"
Anna nodded vigorously.
Yi Wei lowered his head, he felt very guilty. Biological parents have the natural responsibility to raise their children, and his adoptive parents raised him without giving birth to him, their kindness was even greater, but he was unable to repay even a little bit in his previous life. In this life, revenge must be taken and kindness must be repaid.
Mina knew that Yi Wei must be tired after such a long flight, so she asked him to go back to his room and take a nap.
After Yi Wei went upstairs, he was originally going to go into the bedroom, but after pausing for a moment, he turned around and went to the piano room and the painting studio.
There are three very large rooms on this floor, namely the piano room, the painting studio, and the collection room. These three rooms are connected and separated by brown glass sliding doors.
Yi Wei entered the piano room, where there were three pianos of different sizes, three violins and two cellos. He pushed open the glass door and walked into the studio, which was filled with paintings he had drawn himself.
Yi Wei seemed to see his younger self practicing piano and painting here.
After standing there and reminiscing for a while, Yi Wei pushed open another glass door and walked into his collection room, which contained paintings he had bought from galleries and various antiques purchased from auction houses.
He was full of gratitude towards his adoptive parents, and never felt sad or complained about the fact that he seldom saw them. After all, they had never left him alone, nor had he lacked attention and care. They also provided him with a life that most people in this world would never be able to enjoy in their entire lives. If he still complained because his adoptive parents had no time to care about him and accompany him, then he would be too ungrateful and even he would despise himself.
When he was young, Anna once told him that when people feel resentful, painful emotions will follow, and when people feel grateful, a sense of happiness will follow. He always kept this sentence in mind. In the early days after returning to the Yi family, even though he felt wronged again and again because of being treated differently, he kept reminding himself with this sentence and tried very hard to integrate into their group.
But he was only a teenager after all. The unfair treatment he received from his biological parents so many times was too destructive. His heart collapsed while trying to resist the destructive force, and the wounds made his heart begin to twist.
He had never thought of asking his biological parents to treat him better than Yi Xuan. All he wanted was to treat him fairly, but they didn't even do this most basic thing.
"Anna knows you well enough to know that you will definitely come here first."
Yi Wei turned around and said with a smile: "I can't sleep. These are the memories of my happiest time. I can't wait to take a look."
Michelle moved her wheelchair and stopped beside Yi Wei. She looked at the paintings on the wall and said, "These paintings are worth a lot of money now. You have a very good eye. I was looking through the valuation album some time ago. I picked a few of these paintings at random and they are worth more than this house."
"There was a period of time when my friends and I really enjoyed visiting various galleries. We even agreed to compare in the future to see whose paintings appreciated the most in value." Yi Wei couldn't help but smile when he thought of that time in the past.
"It seems like you definitely won. Every painting here is listed in the valuation album, including the ones in the hall, living room and corridor." Michelle turned to look at Yi Wei and said, "Do you want to take all these paintings back? You bought all of them."
Yi Wei shook his head and said, "Although I bought them, it was you and father's money that I spent. It's only right that they be kept here. If I take them back, my happiest memories will be incomplete."
"Okay, then stay here. I've already made a will. This house and everything in it are left to you." Michelle said, "This is also where your father and I had our sweetest and most wonderful times. You can take care of it for us in the future."
Yi Wei was stunned for a moment, then said: "That must be a long, long time in the future."
Michelle smiled, took Yi Wei's hand and said, "Let's go. Anna is in the kitchen making your favorite seafood soup. She hasn't cooked in a long time. Now that you're back, she can't wait to show off her cooking skills."
……………………………………
After living there for two or three days, Yi Wei didn't want to leave because he felt spiritually healed here. His adoptive mother is indeed one of the world's top psychologists and psychotherapists. After every conversation and chat with her, Yi Wei always has a feeling that life is actually very beautiful.
Yi Wei thought that maybe he could stay here until the baby was born. Of course, it is better for the children to stay here than to go back and face all the troubles.
Thinking of this, Yi Wei dialed Gu Yueshan's number.
"What's up?"
Gu Yueshan's low voice came from the other end of the phone, and Yi Wei then remembered that it was the middle of the night on his end, but the call was already connected, and he couldn't just say nothing.
"Director Gu, I'm sorry, I forgot about the time difference and disturbed your rest." Yi Wei explained briefly, and then continued: "Actually, it's not a matter of urgency, it's just... I want to stay here to study and not return to China for the time being."
"You don't have to make a decision now. There's still a lot of time left in the summer vacation. You should think it over carefully. If you still decide you want to stay before the end of the summer vacation, I'll have someone help you arrange your study abroad."
"Okay, thank you, Director Gu." Yi Wei took a deep breath and said, "Also, I... I might..."
"What is possible?" Gu Yueshan asked.
"Nothing... nothing. I'll call you when I've considered studying abroad." Yi Wei quickly hung up the phone and let out a long sigh. He suddenly felt that he didn't have the courage to tell Gu Yueshan that she was pregnant.
However, he would never hide the fact of his pregnancy. If he gave birth to the child secretly without telling Gu Yueshan, what if one day in the future the existence of the child was known by Gu Yueshan and the Gu family, and Gu Yueshan was already married by then? Then, it would be a great shock and hurt for both the child and Gu Yueshan's legal partner.
He absolutely could not let this child be born out of wedlock. Since he wanted this child, he had to ensure that the child was born legally. Making a deal with Gu Yueshan was already a mistake. He couldn't let the child be born out of wedlock just because he wanted the child. That would be too selfish. Having a child out of wedlock is just a nicer way of saying it. To put it bluntly, it is an illegitimate child. If a child comes into this world with such an identity, the child may hate him to death in the future.
He must help the child get the legal protection and support that he deserves. If he can't even do these, then he would rather not have the child.
Yi Wei put her hand on her belly, thinking that she should go to the hospital for a check-up in a few days. After getting the results, she would have a good talk with Gu Yueshan.
So a few days later, Yi Wei took a car to the hospital by himself. After the examination and getting the results, he took a car home by himself. Because he wanted to take a walk, he got off the car some distance away from home, and then slowly walked towards home.
He had already confirmed that he was pregnant in this life, but he needed to think carefully about how to tell Gu Yueshan. In his previous life, after Gu Yueshan knew that he was pregnant, the two got married quickly, but this time, he wanted to persuade him not to make it public for the time being, and agreed to let him stay here to give birth to the child.
Yi Weiyi was walking slowly while thinking about how to tell Gu Yue about this matter. Suddenly, a black car stopped beside him. Several strong men got out of the car and dragged him into the car with force.
"What are you going to do?!" Yi Wei was frightened, and then struggled hard and shouted loudly: "Let go, let me go!"
