Chapter 97: Inexplicable Trust
After dinner, Jiang Yuxu sent Song Yi back home.
When Song Yi entered the house, Song Lansheng had already finished dinner.
Song Lansheng: "Did your boyfriend send you back?"
Song Yi nodded, changed his shoes, and sat on the sofa with Song Lansheng.
Song Lansheng: "You two have been eating out together a lot lately, and you seem to be getting along pretty well. Why don't you invite him to your house for dinner sometime?"
Although Song Yi is almost thirty years old, it is difficult for a mother to be completely indifferent when her daughter is in love.
What's more, Song Yi had suffered a loss at the hands of Xu Shengwen before.
Song Yi: "Well, I'll ask him when he's available."
She could fully understand Song Lansheng's concerns.
After a brief chat about this topic, Song Yi took the initiative to talk to Song Lansheng about the necklace: "Mom, the necklace should be lost."
"It's okay, it's nothing serious." Song Lansheng waved his hand and smiled.
It had been over a week since she and Song Yi had mentioned the necklace, and there had been no news during this period. Song Lansheng had an idea in her mind, "It's not necessary to look for it."
"Mom, actually you have always wanted to find him, right?" Song Yi stared into Song Lansheng's eyes and said this slowly.
Although her voice was slow and gentle, her eyes were sharp, as if she knew everything.
Song Yi almost never showed this side of him in front of Song Lansheng.
When Song Lansheng saw Song Yi's expression, he was stunned for a moment, and a face suddenly flashed through his mind.
It turns out...Song Yi also has the shadow of that person.
Blood and genes don't lie.
Even though they had never met, she still had characteristics of that man.
Over the years, Song Lansheng has been telling himself not to think about that person anymore.
She was so busy with the trivialities of life that she rarely had any free time to think about it.
She was even glad that Song Yi didn't look like that person, so it wouldn't trigger certain memories of her.
This was the first time that the mother and daughter had discussed the matter of that man openly.
Song Lansheng was silent for a long time, sighed lightly, and finally chose to confess to Song Yi.
She whispered, "He's from North City."
Song Yi pursed his lips and said, "You brought me to Beicheng... to find him."
She had guessed this before, and now it has been confirmed by Song Lansheng himself.
"But he hasn't been found." Song Lansheng shook his head. "It's been 25 years, and no one knows where he is now."
"If you want to see him, I'll come find him." Song Yi remembered the question Jiang Yuxu asked her, "Mom, do you hate him?"
When Song Lansheng heard this question, he lowered his head and remained silent for a while. Finally, he pulled the corner of his mouth with difficulty, "He may have let me down, but the road ahead is my own choice. I can't blame him for everything I've been through."
During the long wait, she did feel hatred and felt hopeless.
The most devastating thing was when she gave birth alone in the hospital and the few months after giving birth.
That was when she hated him the most, and all the suffering was blamed on him.
After that period of time, she calmed down.
Since you have brought a child into this world, you should give her the healthiest family love and not let her become an emotional trash can.
Song Lansheng actually figured it out when he was interacting with the young Song Yi.
When she talked about that person now, although her emotions still fluctuated, she no longer felt as resentful as she did back then.
"He should have his own family now." Song Lansheng smiled. "I hope he's doing well."
They truly loved each other back then. There was no third party involved at that time. Everything was innocent, and she had never thought of using Song Yi to ask him for anything.
However, the last time Song Yi broke up with Xu Shengwen and was bullied by his parents, she realized something deeply.
Song Yi still needs a father figure.
He doesn't need to spend money or even work hard. Just by showing up, he can help her avoid a lot of grievances.
Therefore, Song Lansheng decided to look for him.
Song Yi also understood Song Lansheng's attitude from her words. After roughly understanding her, she nodded and said, "Then I'll try to find him."
Seeing Song Lansheng's puzzled expression, Song Yi followed behind to explain: "It's my... boyfriend. He said he could help find it."
Although she has been acting for a while, Song Yi still feels a little stuck when it comes to calling Jiang Yuxu her boyfriend.
Fortunately, Song Lansheng didn't notice.
Song Lansheng was vaguely worried: "What did he say after he found out about this?"
Song Yi: "When we first met, I talked to him about it, and his family also knew about my situation."
She explained to Song Lansheng earnestly, "He doesn't mind this, and his family doesn't look down on me because of it."
Although it was just an act, Song Yi had a really good impression of the Jiang family.
She had never come into contact with a family with such a background before, and she always heard Xu Shengwen and his parents look down on her as a "bastard". As time went by, she subconsciously felt that she was inferior and that the whole world would look down on her because she had no father by her side.
But the reality is not so.
Neither Ji Qingyuan, Jiang Zheng, nor other elders of the Jiang family disliked her for this.
When they heard her say this, their first reaction was: From now on we are your family.
Song Yi felt very moved every time he thought of this incident.
The atmosphere in the Jiang family is very good, but unfortunately she and Jiang Yuxu are just acting and it is impossible for them to really become members of the Jiang family.
However, Jiang Yuxu has several younger sisters, and they should be living happily.
When Song Lansheng heard Song Yi mention Jiang Yuxu's family, his right eyelid twitched twice.
She took a breath and asked tentatively, "What's his family background like?"
Song Yi had always spoken directly to Song Lansheng about Jiang Yuxu's family background, but she knew she couldn't keep it a secret for long.
After some consideration, Song Yi told the truth.
When Song Lansheng heard Song Yi talk about the Jiang family's prominent background, he first breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned.
I was relieved because this background didn't match the person back then, and the same last name was probably just a coincidence;
The frown was because... the Jiang family's background was not compatible with Song Yi's.
Song Lansheng was not being self-deprecating and looking down on Song Yi, but she had always believed in marrying someone of equal social status.
The main reason is that I am afraid that Song Yi will be wronged in the future.
"Mom, don't worry, I understand everything." Song Yi said, "It's just a relationship now. With the lessons learned from the past, I will be cautious."
Song Lansheng nodded. "It's good that you understand. Mom is worried that you'll be wronged."
…
After Song Yi finished chatting with Song Lansheng, they went back to their rooms to rest.
After taking a shower, Song Yi lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling and let out a long sigh.
Although the necklace was not recovered, with Jiang Yuxu's help, the matter was temporarily settled.
Song Yi found it a little unbelievable. She seemed to have an inexplicable trust in Jiang Yuxu.
For example, when he said he would help her find someone, she had a hunch that he would be able to find it.
They had only known each other for a short time, and she was not the type to open her heart to others easily, so why did she have such trust in Jiang Yuxu?
