If Zhou Sui had heard these words in her past life, she would not only have been moved to tears, but she would have also held Cheng Yue's hand and become her sister.
But now, it sounds like bullshit to her.
"Since you've been in the Cheng family for so many years, you might as well stay there."
“I am living a good life now, and I have a loving family. I don’t want to go back to the Cheng family.”
"Please go back and tell Mr. and Mrs. Cheng that they don't need to come looking for me. Just pretend that the child who was lost back then can never be found again."
Zhou Sui is very satisfied with her current life, and she will not dwell on or get stuck in the past.
Neither side disturbed the other, and both remained peaceful.
"Huh?" Cheng Yue looked disappointed and confused. "But you are their biological daughter."
"Hmph." Zhou Sui snorted coldly, "So what? If they really put the two of us together, do you think they would choose you or me?"
She is indeed their biological daughter, but the Cheng family raised Cheng Yue for eighteen years, and their affection for her had long surpassed that of blood ties.
Cheng Yue bit her lower lip and remained silent; she clearly knew the answer.
After getting off the bus, Zhou Sui didn't even look at Cheng Yue. She believed that she had already made things clear and that she would not threaten Cheng Yue's position as the Cheng family's young lady, so Cheng Yue should be at ease.
She found a place where she could make a phone call and called home, telling a lie that she was stuck in traffic and that's why she arrived in town so late.
After ending the call and paying, Zhou Sui turned to walk towards the university town. She hadn't been to the store for two days and wanted to check on how things were going.
But when she turned around, Cheng Yue was standing a few steps away, waiting. When she turned around, Cheng Yue came over and asked, "Sister, have you finished your call?"
Zhou Sui glanced at her indifferently, "You've already said what you wanted to say, why are you still following along?"
Cheng Yue was really following Zhou Sui because the Cheng family's current residence was in the opposite direction from the university town, and it was already getting late; if Cheng Yue didn't go back soon, it would get dark.
If it were anywhere else, Zhou Sui wouldn't care; you could follow if you wanted. But now Zhou Sui was going back to the shop, and she didn't want Cheng Yue to find out.
“Follow your sister.” Cheng Yue looked around like a curious child, occasionally exclaiming, “Wow, there really are such tall buildings.”
"Wow, this bus is bigger than my car! How many people can it hold?" She was referring to the bus.
"Huh? What is that person eating?"
Zhou Sui, who was waiting at the traffic light, glanced at the child in front of her. The child was holding a string of candied hawthorns, and the sugar stains from the candied hawthorns were stuck to his face, making the area around his mouth look red.
Just as Zhou Sui was about to look away, she noticed Cheng Yue walking towards the child, her eyes fixed on him.
A candied hawthorn in my hand?
A rather unrealistic thought flashed through Zhou Sui's mind: Could it be that Cheng Yue was craving candied hawthorns?
The thought flashed through Zhou Sui's mind, but she quickly dismissed it. How could that be? The Cheng family was well-off; they could get anything from abroad if Cheng Yue wanted to eat it.
The green light at the zebra crossing turned on, and Zhou Sui lifted her leg and walked forward with the flow of people. Now Cheng Yue didn't have to follow her anymore.
"Wah wah wah".
"Waaaaah."
She had only taken a few steps when she heard crying behind her.
Looking back, Zhou Sui almost died on the spot.
"I'm sorry, this money is for the kids to buy something to eat."
"Little one, don't cry."
Zhou Sui forced a stiff smile and said to the mother and child in front of her, "It's not like we don't have money. Can't you buy it yourself? You're such a grown-up, and you're still fighting with a child. Aren't you ashamed?"
Zhou Sui didn't know whether Cheng Yue was shameful or not, but she was definitely quite shameful.
She turned around and saw Cheng Yue holding a half-eaten candied hawthorn in her hand. The child was crying loudly because the candied hawthorn had been taken away.
Cheng Yue burst into tears because she couldn't see her sister when she turned around. She also had sharp eyes, and the moment Zhou Sui turned around, she ran over and called out, "Sister, boohoo."
Then someone said, "Hey, someone snatched the child's candied hawthorn and ran away."
Passersby turned their attention to Zhou Sui and Cheng Yue beside her.
Just then, the child's mother came out, coaxing her child while scolding, "Are you a reincarnated starving ghost? You even steal things from a child."
Zhou Sui was truly embarrassed; she felt she had never been so ashamed before.
Because of Cheng Yue's heart-wrenching cry of "Sister!", people thought the two of them had fought over the candied hawthorn.
That's why Zhou Sui apologized just now.
If you ask her why she paid that money, it's because Cheng Yue didn't have a single penny!
When asked why she apologized, Cheng Yue looked panicked, was crying so hard she was hiccuping, and couldn't even speak properly!
Zhou Sui said they weren't sisters, but people said she shouldn't try to distance herself after doing something wrong; the more she explained, the worse it got!
She just wanted to get it over with and leave; it was so damn embarrassing!
Zhou Sui's face was as cold as frost. Cheng Yue knew she had done something wrong and looked at her timidly. Just as she was about to speak, Zhou Sui walked right past her.
"Sister." Cheng Yue followed without hesitation, tears still clinging to her eyelashes, looking pitiful.
"I didn't mean to steal it, I, hiccup, I just wanted to smell it, hiccup."
"Then I hiccuped, I couldn't see my sister, and I panicked, hiccup." When she saw Zhou Sui again, she rushed over without thinking, completely forgetting that she was still holding the candied hawthorn in her hand.
Zhou Sui was so angry she laughed. She was now absolutely certain that Cheng Yue had lost her mind.
Because Zhou Sui walked very fast, Cheng Yue had to chase after her and explain, which caused her to hiccup incessantly.
