Wan Guifen opened the door and saw Zhao Fenglin and his family of three. Although they had not seen each other for four years, she felt that time had not left any traces on Zhou Mengyu's face. She was very fond of the woman in front of her. She was still graceful and elegant, and Zhao Fenglin became more imposing in her eyes.
The two sides greeted each other politely and sat down in the small hall. Xianrou spoke first:
"Mom and Dad, I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have concealed the existence of your child. When I found out that I was pregnant and couldn't get rid of the child, I even thought about finding Yang Ziyi and dying together, but I couldn't bear to leave you, my newly recognized parents.
That’s why I gave birth to the child without telling you. Because of your support, I was able to take care of the child while also focusing on my studies. After I got my diploma, I knew I couldn’t hide the child anymore, so I brought Tuanbao back. Things have to be resolved.”
Xianrou finished speaking, but no one responded. The atmosphere was a little awkward. Wan's mother was very anxious and kept winking at Lianyi, but Lianyi was playing with her nails without making any sound.
Zhou Mengyu looked at Xianrou with complicated eyes, then looked at the sleeping child. She knew that Xianrou was worried, but she didn't expect that she would hide it to this extent. When her husband told her the day before, she was still a little bit unbelievable. After all, she watched the child take the aphrodisiac.
Zhao Fenglin had known for a long time that Xianrou was pregnant and had a child, so he was not surprised. However, he did not accept her explanation. He looked at Lianyi who was playing with her nails, and did not say anything.
Wu Yong's eyelids twitched. He always felt that the three members of the Zhao family were too silent this time. He cleared his throat and prepared to break the silence, but before he opened his mouth, there was another knock on the door.
This time it was Lianyi who opened the door, and following her in was Wu Junyi. This surprised the Wu couple and Xianrou, because at this time, Wu Junyi should be in class.
"I was the one who notified my younger brother to come here. After all, this is a big deal. He is a member of the family and an uncle. He has the right to know."
Ripple said lightly.
When Wu Junyi was called, he didn't know why. After seeing the child, he understood everything. He sat on the square stool against the wall, ready to serve as a background board.
"Now that everyone is here, let's solve the problem."
Lian Yi said calmly.
For some reason, Xianrou felt guilty and uncomfortable for a moment when she looked into her eyes. When she wanted to say something, she saw the other party take out a small tape recorder from the large canvas bag he was carrying, and then pressed the play button in the puzzled eyes of everyone.
"My child, I endured being separated from you for seventeen years and raised someone else's child, all for you. Seeing you now, I don't regret my decision! You have to behave well in front of your adoptive parents. Lianyi was not raised by them, so she doesn't have a deep relationship with them."
The voice coming from inside was Wan Guifen's, and frankly it was her words about exchanging children.
The faces of the Wu family members changed, especially Wan Guifen, whose face turned pale, followed by Xianrou. The secret that the mother and daughter had been hiding was known by the Zhao family the moment they spoke out, and they still thought they had concealed it well.
The most surprised person was Wu Junyi. After spending a long time figuring out that his own elder sister and sister Lianyi were switched by his mother, his eyes widened and he figured out the key point in an instant.
Wu Yong pointed at Wan Guifen with a trembling finger, the muscles on his face trembling, and said hatefully:
"Are you crazy?"
Wan Guifen’s face was pale, she bit her lips tightly and said nothing.
Xianrou said with a look of horror:
"Mom and Dad, please listen to my explanation."
"Don't rush to explain. It won't be too late to explain after you have listened to all the recordings."
Lianyi's voice was faint, even with a hint of coldness.
Xianrou seemed to realize something, and her beautiful eyes turned to look at Zhao Fenglin and Zhou Mengyu. Both of them shook their heads helplessly and didn't want to say anything more.
"I accepted her favor and helped interrupt Miss Wei and Young Master Yang's affair, but later on, I don't know why, Yang Ziyi came out less than five minutes after he went in. I followed Miss Zhao's instructions and sent him to her resting room."
"Don't let go!"
Xianrou felt that the last piece of her fig leaf had been torn off, and she rushed to the tape recorder on the table, but Lianyi had already taken it away and put it back into the canvas bag.
"Xianrou, how do you think the Yang family and the Wei family could not find out about this? It's just that father took control of this person first and cleaned up the mess for you, otherwise Madam Yang would tear you apart!
Fortunately, you are not stupid. You knew that Madam Yang didn't like you, so you decisively chose to go abroad. The way out you left for yourself was this child, Tuanbao! Am I right?"
"Since you all knew, why didn't you tell me?"
Xianrou's eyes were a little red as she looked at the three people opposite her, especially Zhou Mengyu, who had specially accompanied her abroad.
"Are you saying that you already knew that you and I were swapped, and that it was your biological mother who did it, or that something happened to you and that you were forced by Yang Ziyi, and that half of it was directed and acted out by you?
Your child is three years old now. Your parents have given you so much time and opportunities. Have you ever thought about confessing to them?"
Lianyi asked very directly, and she was just short of slapping the words "You are so shameless" in her face.
"Since you knew that our replacement was artificial, have you never thought about telling your parents? Even though it's not your fault, don't you even have the courage to tell them?
Even if your parents knew about it, for your sake and mine, they wouldn't even dare to confront you. They would continue to support you, provide you with the best of everything, and let you continue to regard yourself as Miss Zhao.
When you were plotting against Yang Ziyi, your father was quietly helping you deal with the aftermath! Your father already knew that you gave birth to a child in France, and he didn't ask any more questions unless you said anything!
Why do you think that you can give birth in the best private hospital with the money you paid? Can your child obtain citizenship so smoothly? Can you find a Chinese nanny just by chance? Can you drop out of school just like that? Is the school owned by your family? Didn’t your dad donate 10,000 Chinese books?
Now you are back with your child, and you continue to take advantage of my parents, trying to take all the benefits! Why do you do that? Please have some shame!"
After Lianyi finished speaking, Wu Yong and Wan Guifen both blushed. They really didn't know that the suffering their daughter had endured was caused by herself.
Wu Junyi felt ashamed and sad, even a little angry at his mother's greed and selfishness. Now that things had gotten to this point, he would never be able to hold his head up in front of Sister Lianyi again.
Xianrou was just crying silently now. All her thoughts were exposed nakedly in front of her dearest person, making her feel ashamed.
But she also hated Lianyi for causing all this. If looks could kill, Lianyi would have died a thousand times already.
"Don't stare at me! And don't even think about tripping me up. If you make me unhappy, I will give the recording to the Yang family and make all your plans go awry!"
There was indifference in Lianyi's eyes.
The knock on the door sounded again.
