Her life safety is more important than anything else, and no one dares to take it lightly.
Stepping into the Wan family, Zhong Yuxiu was influenced by the original owner and felt as if she was in another world; long-missed buildings, long-missed houses, long-missed smell of green grass.
The Wan family used to be wealthy, so the construction of their house naturally met the standards of wealth of that era. Many years passed, and the house was affected by turbulent times. After Wan Xuetang returned, he restored it.
Wan Yuning led the people through the main hall and all the way to the outside of Wan Xuetang's house. Wan Yuning stopped and turned to look at the people behind him.
"Yuxiu, when you see your father later, have a good talk with him, okay?"
"I know what to do." His tone was as cold as ever.
Wan Yuning nodded slightly, knocked on the door, and without waiting for the person inside to respond, he pushed the door open and walked in, "Dad, I'm back."
"I'm back." An old and weak voice came. Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help but think of the high-spirited Wan Xuetang in the original owner's memory, and stopped outside the door.
Wan Yuning was not angry, and even wanted to cry. He silently swallowed the sob in his throat and pretended to be calm. He turned his head to look at Zhong Yuxiu, and seeing that she did not enter the room, he looked at her with pleading eyes.
"Look who I brought you."
Her memories were interrupted, and Zhong Yuxiu stepped into the house and walked into the inner room with Wan Yuning; the house where Wan Xuetang lived was composed of three large rooms, with a reception room outside and a bedroom on the inner left side. Opposite the living room, there was a place for making tea and playing chess, and even a lot of bookshelves.
"You...Yuxiu."
Wan Xuetang was excited and tried to sit up from the bed. Wan Yuning hurried over to help him lean back on the bunk bed, propping up his lower back with a pillow to make him more comfortable. "Dad, don't be excited. Yuxiu is here to see you. Go talk to her. I'll go to the kitchen and make you something to eat. Please enjoy some food later."
"Go away." Wan Xuetang waved his hands repeatedly, his eyes never leaving Zhong Yuxiu's face.
Wan Yuning smiled bitterly, covered him with a quilt, turned to look at Zhong Yuxiu, silently begging her to speak more gently and not be too irritating.
Zhong Yuxiu nodded slightly. She was not as direct with patients as she was with healthy people. She was not an ungrateful person. Sometimes she spoke bluntly just because she was too lazy to deal with it.
Wan Yuning felt a little relieved and said to Gu Lingguo beside her, "Comrade, please come with me and let my father talk to Yuxiu."
Gu Lingguo looked at Zhong Yuxiu and asked for her opinion; after Zhong Yuxiu nodded, he followed Wan Yuning out of the house.
The door was closed, and only the former father and daughter were left in the room.
Wan Xuetang raised his weak hand and pointed to the stool beside the bed. That was where Wan Yuning sat when he took care of Wan Xuetang in the past.
"Yuxiu, sit down. Don't stand when you get home."
Zhong Yuxiu walked forward and sat down, her eyes so calm that it made people feel chilled, "Why are you so ill?" Wan Xuetang suffered a lot when she went to the countryside, but her body was not as worn out as her teacher. As a result, her teacher is now getting healthier, but Wan Xuetang is plagued by illness.
Wan Xuetang chuckled and shook his head slowly. "Birth, aging, sickness, and death are just the laws of the world. But the more I get sick, the more I want to see you. Maybe this is the last time we see each other. I'm sorry, Yuxiu, for disturbing you."
Once upon a time, the original owner and Wan Xuetang had a strong father-daughter relationship, but today, Zhong Yuxiu has replaced the original owner and sits in front of him; the father and daughter no longer have the same friendship as before, as the original owner is dead, and Zhong Yuxiu did not inherit the original owner's feelings.
Maybe she could empathize with him sometimes, but that was just empathy and it couldn't affect her mind.
"Why are you saying all this?" Zhong Yuxiu said indifferently, "After all, you were father and daughter. You once truly loved Wan Yuxiu. Although it ended in tragedy, you once had a bond stronger than blood."
She always used other people's tone to say that Wan Xuetang was not a fool. He did not see the timid, sensible and lovely daughter he had been in Zhong Yuxiu.
Furthermore, she had never admitted that she was Wan Yuxiu; Wan Xuetang hadn't been in the past few years, and this person was no longer the daughter he once was. Years later, the woman sitting in front of him really didn't look like his former daughter anymore.
Wan Xuetang blamed himself and felt guilty. His words were like a deep sigh. "I know you are not my daughter. I am afraid my Yuxiu is no longer with us. But I am still very happy to see you."
The daughter is gone, but there is someone better than her who lives her life for her.
"You guessed it a long time ago, right?" Zhong Yuxiu asked in a flat tone.
Wan Xuetang nodded with difficulty, his eyes reddening. "Thank you for coming to see me. Yuxiu was a timid, cheerful, sensible, and lovely girl. It's impossible for her to be so strong and capable. Back then, Yuxiu was good at science, but not good enough to make a significant contribution to the country. The more brilliant your achievements become, the more I confirm my suspicions."
It turned out that it was her achievements that made Wan Jiawan Xuetang face the reality.
"Will you not be angry when you see me? I'm not your daughter." She wasn't afraid of Wan Xuetang telling others. What would happen if he told others? Who would believe him? The higher-ups wouldn't let him talk nonsense.
Confident, she is fearless.
"You must be angry. You don't know how my daughter died?" At this point, Wan Xuetang just hoped that his daughter was not possessed by some strange creature.
Zhong Yuxiu had no intention of hiding anything, so she said, "She had a high fever, and she had no money for treatment. She was so disheartened that she couldn't make it through two days and passed away. When I arrived, she had already been dead for a few breaths."
No money for treatment, no money for treatment!
These four words pierced Wan Xuetang's heart to pieces. Why did he have no money for treatment? It was because of what his own daughter had said to them. They believed it and blamed Yuxiu for allowing his own daughter to abuse her. He, Wan Yutong and Wan Yuning were all the murderers who killed Yuxiu.
Wan Xuetang burst into tears and cried uncontrollably; for the sake of his own heartless daughter, he killed the daughter he had raised since childhood.
Wan Xuetang cried for a long time, but Zhong Yuxiu did not try to persuade him. In this world, Wan Xuetang was the one who had the right to know the cause of the original owner's death; after all, they had truly loved the original owner, and it was truly their fault that the original owner was killed.
Gu Lingguo, who was guarding outside the door, only heard Wan Xuetang's crying. He knew that Zhong Yuxiu was fine, so he didn't move.
The crying gradually subsided, and Wan Xuetang wiped away a tear, as if relieved and relieved, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"It's not something to laugh at. One wrong step led to all of them. In fact, Wan Yuxiu had some resentment towards you before she died, but she didn't hate you. However, all of this is in the past. You shouldn't dwell on the past and let yourself get seriously ill." She had no intention of pursuing the grudges against the Wan family, and the original owner had no intention of pursuing them either. She had been back in the city for so long, and because of her status and position, she was well protected and had never had a head-on confrontation with Wan Yutong.
The battle with the reborn girl that he had envisioned did not exist; Wan Yutong was defeated before he even got in front of her.
Rebirth is not a panacea, at least your IQ won’t get better after rebirth.
"Just consider it as atonement. I am the one who let Yuxiu down." Wan Xuetang felt guilty towards his adopted daughter.
