Chapter 102 "Is it him?"
At this time, Jin Ye was looking at Professor Gu with a pure and innocent look, just out of curiosity.
Before Professor Gu could answer, he suddenly heard Zhang Zhilin shout, "Mr. Zhou is here."
Jin Ye was startled and turned around to face Zhou Siwei, "What are you doing——"
She wanted to ask how Zhou Siwei knew Professor Gu.
However, her eyes were attracted by the man behind him.
The man was wearing a grey gown and a wide-brimmed black hat. The moment he took off the hat, Jin Ye was shocked.
Even more exaggerated than hers was Xu Xiaoyun’s reaction. She let out an “ah” and the dumpling skin in her hand fell to the ground.
"It's you!" Jin Ye took a while to find his own voice.
"Is it him?"
On the other side, Wei Liangchen in the car was still in shock and looked at Qi Yuan, "Are you sure?"
Qi Yuan said, "That's right. Jin Ye's fake mother went to Jinling to look for her cousin. When she couldn't find him, she hooked up with a land sweeper and lived in his house, making it very difficult for our people to find him."
"What's even more shocking is that the fake mother was actually just a maid bought by Xu Xiaoyun. She married Xu Xiaoyun's brother, and Jin Ye was kept under their name, thinking that they could conceal Jin Ye's background."
Wei Liangchen's eyes were gloomy and veins on his hands were bulging.
Qi Yuan looked at him and smiled meaningfully, as if he was afraid that the world would not be in chaos. "Oh, this is going to be a good show..."
A quarter of an hour later.
Professor Gu's residence.
Jin Ye still couldn't believe what he saw and heard.
At this moment, the three of them were sitting opposite each other, the tea in front of them still steaming, that heat seemed to get into her heart, making her feel a little suffocated.
She looked at Chief Ling standing opposite her, her heart beating fast, "You said you are my biological father?"
The sound I make is so dreamy and empty.
Suddenly, she remembered something. No wonder Ling Xuewei said that.
If you look closely, they do look a bit similar.
"Xiao Jin, it's Auntie...it's Mommy's fault. She shouldn't have kept it a secret from you." Xu Xiaoyun was already sobbing.
Xu Xiaoyun is indeed her biological mother.
"It's none of your business. It's all my fault." Ling Jianru, the head of the Ling clan, looked at Jin Ye with a guilty look in his eyes. "I failed to fulfill my responsibilities as a husband and a father."
"Husband?" Jin Ye suddenly smiled, "Your wife is obviously Mrs. Ling."
Ling Jianru sighed, "I met Xiaoyun first, when she was only sixteen years old, but later... I broke up with her due to family pressure."
Jin Ye felt as if there was thunder and lightning rolling in the sky, adding to the huge amount of melodrama.
It was so wet that she got goosebumps all over her body.
"But Ling Xuewei is three years older than me. You already have a wife and children, so why did you mess with my aunt?" The word "mother" was so awkward that she couldn't say it. "Why?"
Ling Jianru felt even more guilty, "After I married Zhang, I first had Xuewei, and then I went to work at Jinling University. When I saw your aunt again, I couldn't help but fall in love with her."
"I can't help myself."
"Xiao Jin..." Xu Xiaoyun was ashamed, "It was mom who seduced him, don't blame him. I didn't tell him that I was pregnant."
Ling Jianru said: "You don't have to cover up for me. I am the one who is sorry for you. After I learned from Professor Gu that you had a child, I went to look for you, but you were gone."
Jin Ye asked: "Then shouldn't you continue to look for her? Why did you erase all traces of her?"
Xu Xiaoyun shook her head: "I left Jinling because someone wanted to kill me. Fortunately, I escaped. He did this for my safety."
"Really? Who wanted to kill you?" Jin Ye asked, "You were shot later. Was it also sent by that person?"
"I'm also investigating this, but I don't have any evidence yet." Ling Jianru's eyes were a little complicated. "On the day Xiaoyun was assassinated, I wanted to see her."
Jin Ye was shocked again, "What did you see my aunt do?"
"I want to confirm whether you are my daughter."
"It took you so many years to confirm it?"
Xu Xiaoyun helped him explain: "I refused to admit it. When your father found me, I lied to him and said that I didn't give birth to you. In fact, you have been raised by my second brother, your second uncle. When I gave birth to you, your second uncle was afraid that I would be criticized for having a child before marriage. It happened that the maid I bought liked your second uncle, so they got married and others thought you were their child."
So that's how it is.
Jin Ye looked at Chief Ling with a cold gaze, "So, you were afraid that her affair with you and your illegitimate daughter would be exposed and affect your career, so you killed her. You also wanted to kill me."
Xu Xiaoyun was shocked: "No, Xiaojin, it's not him."
Ling Jianru was also shocked. "Why do you think so? I am just waiting to be reunited with you one day. How could I want to kill you?"
Jin Ye sneered, "Reunion? Twenty years ago, you were reluctant to give up your career and family and abandon your aunt. Now you are probably even more reluctant."
She really had no good feelings towards this father who suddenly appeared.
Because he started out messy but ended up giving up, and also because he is the father of Ling Xuewei and Ling Shaomin.
She and Ling Shaomin were only a few months apart in age, so it was obvious that while he was getting along with Xu Xiaoyun, he was also being intimate with his wife.
Moreover, over the years, Ling Shaomin and Ling Xuewei were raised in his hands like princesses, but she was called a burden by them.
Ling Jianru said in a sad tone, "I will let you recognize your ancestors and return to your family. You are not an illegitimate daughter."
Yes, in this era, men can still take concubines, Jin Ye said:
"Thank you, I don't need it."
Ling Jianru was shocked again.
He didn't expect the girl to be so stubborn and put up a wall in front of him.
Xu Xiaoyun hadn't expected that, because Xiaojin had always been very well-behaved and sensible, she thought that the father and daughter would cry and recognize each other, "Xiaojin, this is actually good for you."
"Okay?" Jin Ye asked, "Will you continue to pretend to have amnesia, cut off your relationship with the governor, and become his concubine? Then we can live together in the Ling family?"
It is simply the most embarrassing thing in the world.
The Ling family and the Wei family are still friends. Isn't it shameful for General Ling and Governor Wei?
Xu Xiaoyun's face turned pale. "I'm old now. I'm lucky to be alive. I don't want to follow anyone. I'm alone. I just want you—"
"I'm sorry, I won't recognize him. I'm alone too." Jin Ye stood up and said, "Bye."
"Jin Ye." Ling Jinru called her, "You and Wei Liangchen, what are you going to do?"
Jin Ye sneered, "Why? You want to persuade me to leave him and give way to Ling Xuewei? After all, she is your legitimate daughter and will be more helpful to your career. You want me to marry Zhou Siwei, is this your intention?"
Ling Jianru was surprised and said, "You misunderstood. I didn't think so."
He looked very serious and honest, "After I found out that you are my child, I have been planning how to take you and Xiaoyun out of the Wei family, but I didn't find the opportunity. Later, I met Xiao Zhou, he is a good young man, so I asked him to help me."
He omitted all the processes in between, but anyone could tell that it took a lot of effort.
He added: "When I planned to transfer you and your aunt to Hong Kong Island, I didn't know about your relationship with Wei Liangchen. I only found out when Wei Liangchen came to claim the bride.
I had planned to let your aunt receive treatment in Hong Kong Island, but she woke up and I received a call from Si Wei, saying that the governor was going to send you to North City. I was happy but also worried. I was happy that I could see you often, but I was worried that the governor would not release Xiaoyun. Who knew that Wei Liangchen would come to snatch the bride.
When the Zhi army attacked the city, the government was in chaos. I wanted to attend your wedding, but I couldn't come. Of course, I didn't want to confront General Wei under such circumstances. "
Jin Ye thought about it and realized that the governor and his wife had only recently found out about her and Wei Liangchen's affair, so it was reasonable that he didn't know about it.
Her tone softened a little, "What if I were to marry Wei Liangchen?"
"Then I'll let Xuewei withdraw."
"You are willing, is your wife willing?"
