Chapter 744: Chapter 744: A Motherly Presence
Last ti at the Wong Family’s, Gao Wenlan proposed adopting Tang Li as her daughter, thinking that it would end there, but unexpectedly, Gao Wenlan brought up the matter again.
This ti, Mr. and Mrs. Gao had made up their mind.
“Tonight, letting you visit the Wong Family is also to discuss the exact timing.”
Gao Wenlan went on: “Old Wang is right, even if you don’t have a good relationship with your father, we shouldn’t neglect the formalities; after all, you are his child, so a visit is indispensable.”
After Gao Wenlan finished speaking, Tang Li finally spoke: “You might not know who my father is.”
“If you knew my background, you wouldn’t think this way.”
“Isn’t your father Councilman Lai Wenyan?”
Tang Li: “…”
It was deep into the night, and there were few pedestrians at the subway station exit.
Gao Wenlan glanced at Tang Li’s assistant, then continued, “Old Wang and I have roughly understood your family situation, and we have considered all the issues you’re worried about. We want to adopt you as our daughter, not your identity or background. To Professor Wong and , a person’s true nature is most important.”
Tang Li did not imdiately agree.
Yu Sui, having listened, glanced at Tang Li and then said to Gao Wenlan, “That Professor Xu Yuan, Tang Li actually really wants to be your daughter.”
“…” Tang Li turned her head to look at her.
Yu Sui’s expression was calm as she continued: “She often discusses you with us in the dormitory, saying that Professor Xu Yuan, who could write such a brilliant novel as ‘Original Sin’, must be a knowledgeable and intellectual woman.”
“After Tang Li got the role of Ying Xuaner in the drama adaptation, she studied the novel daily. You praised her on Twitter as the most suitable Ying Xuaner, she was insomniac for a night. Tang Li also said that you are the ‘Lagerlof’ in her heart.”
Lagerlof, the first female recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature.
Gao Wenlan was truly stunned.
She never expected the young girl to admire her so much.
Song Jingtian looked up and said to Gao Wenlan, “Tang Li also frequently ntions you in front of ; my ears are almost growing calluses.”
Tang Li cast a glance at the little guy.
Song Jingtian, not looking at her, pursed his lips and puffed out his belly.
Seeing Gao Wenlan’s misunderstanding, Tang Li had to explain, “Don’t listen to their nonsense—”
“I understand,” Gao Wenlan interrupted.
While speaking, she glanced at Tang Li from the corner of her eye, realizing the young girl was rather shy.
Thinking this, she grasped Tang Li’s right hand: “Professor Wong and I aren’t being impulsive. Since you’re not against it, let’s settle on this. When we get back ho, I’ll call Old Wang to ask when it’s suitable to visit the Lai Family.”
Tang Li thought, you probably don’t understand anything.
Just been sweet-talked for a while.
However, there are so words, Tang Li ultimately didn’t voice.
She could feel that Gao Wenlan genuinely wanted to adopt her as a foster daughter.
Otherwise, Gao Wenlan wouldn’t have tracked down the filming location of the crew, co to visit her late at night, and even brought her a late-night snack.
Gao Wenlan did this hoping she could get along well with other mbers of the crew.
Tang Li was not ungrateful.
Since her rebirth, she had only felt a mother’s warmth from Xiao Minglan, but now, Gao Wenlan was doing similar things.
Even though Gao Wenlan had never raised any children, Tang Li couldn’t ignore her genuine affection.
So, she did not withdraw her hand.
For a mont, Tang Li indeed saw Gao Wenlan as a motherly figure.
