Qi Yasheng was stunned when she saw the banner.
The first line of large characters on the banner read: "Memorial Service for Comrade Qiao Tianyue!"
The second line of smaller characters reads: "The virtuous granddaughter of the Qi family has tragically died young. Heaven and earth endure forever, yet her beauty has shattered and her fragrance has vanished! Fortune and misfortune are ever-changing, and now we are forever separated by heaven and earth!"
Qi Yasheng found the few words, written in a very formal style, quite displeasing, especially the emphasis on "Qi family."
Qi Zhao immediately rushed over and stopped the students: "What are you doing?!"
Qi Yasheng sneered, "Qi Zhao, it's time to wake up from your pipe dream! Look at this!"
As he spoke, he tossed a brown paper document bag into Qi Zhao's arms.
Qi Zhao opened the file bag with great confusion and took out several English documents.
Upon seeing the English text, Qi Zhao immediately turned his back to prevent others from seeing it.
Qi Zhao himself was influenced by his family from a young age, so he was naturally able to understand English.
He read on, line by line, feeling as if he had been struck by lightning: "How could this be? No... this is impossible!"
He looked up and gazed at Xia Tianxiu's portrait.
That was a photo taken when Xia Tianxiu had just arrived in Beijing, and Qi Zhao took her there.
In the photo, Summer Xiu smiles sweetly, looking completely harmless.
However, if Xia Tianxiu is not the real granddaughter of the Qi family, then this is a premeditated fraud!
Qi Zhao felt that his entire worldview had been turned upside down.
Seeing the curious people gathering around in twos and threes, Qi Zhao hurriedly stuffed the two certificates of authenticity back into the file bag and handed them back to Qi Yasheng.
Finally, ignoring the astonished looks of the crowd, he staggered and, leaning against the wall, walked straight out of the memorial service hall.
The people downstairs looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What's going on?"
"Wasn't it him who organized the memorial service?"
"We didn't want to come to such an unlucky event; we only came because of him. How come he left?"
Who knows?
"I feel like I'm possessed!"
"Sigh, what's really going on with the Qi family?"
"It's hard to say, I dare not say, I cannot say!"
...
"Ahem!" Qi Yasheng coughed twice, and only then did the group of people remember that there was still a living member of the Qi family standing in front of them!
So everyone left awkwardly, leaving Qi Yasheng alone in the entire memorial hall.
He walked up to Xia Tianxiu's portrait, looked her over, and then turned the portrait upside down on the table: "They say the dead are the greatest, but that doesn't apply to me. What do you call this? I guess it's karma."
After saying that, Qi Yasheng walked out.
That evening, Qi Zhao found Qi Yasheng's dormitory at the research institute: "Cousin... that Zhang Ruyi... no, that... my real niece, where is she now?"
Qi Yasheng said coldly, "Now you're thinking about her?"
Qi Zhao looked somewhat dazed: "I think... this might be fate's arrangement. They say good things come to those who wait... maybe..."
Shut your mouth!
Qi Zhao, have some shame!
Because of you, the real Yue'er has never spent a single day with her parents!
She didn't live with her mother or maternal grandfather in the Qi family's old house for even a single day!
Their identity has never been truly restored!
It's all because of your obstruction!
You really are her nemesis—you caused her to be stolen by the nanny when she was a child, and now you've caused her to never have a single warm moment before her parents died!
Qi Zhao, if I were you, I would never want to appear in front of her again.
Qi Yasheng shouted angrily.
Qi Zhao's face flushed red one moment and turned pale the next.
"Qi Yasheng, this is the difference in how we think about problems."
Yue'er is still very young, I have plenty of time to make it up to her!
I made a mistake, but I'm willing to correct it!
I'm willing to change it right away!
Now you're blocking me from telling me where she is. Are you the nemesis, or am I?
You should know that although my second grandfather is gone, my grandfather is still here!
Everything our family can give Yue'er, absolutely everything...
These were all things that could change her destiny.
Qi Zhao's words made sense, and Qi Yasheng fell into deep thought.
Actually, this report was sent to Beijing the day before yesterday.
The night before last, Qi Yasheng and Su Ruyi went to Qiao Tianyue's dormitory.
Today, Qiao Tianyue is a proud worker.
She cut her hair short and looked very dashing. It is said that she has won the title of model worker in the factory for two consecutive months.
They are self-reliant and receive a monthly salary; they have access to a canteen for meals and dormitories for accommodation.
Qiao Tianyue has completely woken up from that illusion of being the eldest daughter of the Qi family in Beijing.
She is now at peace.
After seeing the two reports and hearing Qi Yasheng translate them sentence by sentence and explain in detail the advanced technology of the United States, her expression remained unchanged:
"Uncle, thank you for doing all this for me."
I just regret that my mother didn't have a funeral.
And I spent too much time with her... and it was too short, just one night.
However, the bond between parents and relatives can be deep or shallow, and this is also predetermined by fate.
Actually, from the first moment I saw my mother, I knew we were mother and daughter connected by blood.
The other girl must be an imposter.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yasheng lowered her head in shame, not daring to look Qiao Tianyue in the eye.
Qiao Tianyue, however, turned her gaze to Su Ruyi:
"Dr. Su, I've never been able to properly thank you, and I feel really bad about it."
Because my identity has always been very...sensitive.
I'd like to visit in person to express my gratitude, but I'm afraid you might think... I have ulterior motives.
Dr. Su, I learned how to knit sweaters from my colleagues these past few months. I've knitted you a sweater, a pair of wool pants, and two scarves.
"Wait a moment, I'll get it for you."
As she spoke, she squatted down and pulled out a suitcase from under the bed.
Qi Yasheng saw at a glance that the suitcase was the one she had bought for her, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Qiao Tianyue took out a bunch of things from the suitcase, all of which were already packed.
She struggled to lift one of the large bundles and handed it to Su Ruyi:
"Dr. Su, you must accept this!"
I know it's not worth much money, but it's a token of my appreciation!
Thank you for taking me in when I was most confused and helpless!
Thank you for protecting me when bad guys came to my door!
Thank you for believing in me when everyone else was skeptical!
Upon hearing these words, Qi Yasheng wished she could disappear into the ground.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Tianyue stood up again and handed him a small bundle:
"Uncle, now I can finally call you that legitimately! I'm so happy! Uncle!"
