"I’ll tell you anyway, but that thing is probably not with her anymore." Jiang Xue interjected. Previously, Old Sir Jiang brought Cheng Li back, knowing she wasn’t a Jiang Family child, that bracelet was surely confiscated.
So, if Lu Jintian wants to retrieve the bracelet, he still has to make a trip to the Jiang Family.
"In that case, forget it." Lu Shijin wasn’t insistent on getting the bracelet; he actually wanted to et the person who took the item and abandoned him.
Back then, if his adoptive father hadn’t received the letter and rushed over, he might’ve already been dead. As his adoptive father said, he was terribly ill at the ti. The doctor said that if they had been any later, even if he survived, he would likely have beco a fool.
Lu Jintian said everything he knew, then looked at Jiang Xue, indicating it was her turn to speak. Just as Jiang Xue was about to speak, Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang began to recount how they found Jiang Xue.
After hearing it, Lu Jintian stood up and bowed gratefully to the elderly couple. If it weren’t for them, Jiang Xue might not have survived.
Back then, the rural conditions were poor, and families had many children. If she hadn’t encountered them, Jiang Xue might have ended up in an orphanage, or starved or froze to death on the street.
"Child, why so polite? Even though we raised Xue’er, she brought us much happiness."
"Uncle, Aunt, no matter what, I must thank you. Without you, Xue’er couldn’t have been so happy."
Jiang Xue responded from the side, saying, "That’s right, they are the best parents in the world. I owe everything today to what they’ve given."
"Mom, Dad, thank you!"
"Xue’er, you are our daughter, it was our duty."
"Exactly."
Just then, Niu ca over and said, "Madam, lunch is ready."
"Alright, let’s eat first, we’ll talk more after the al." Jiang Xue said to everyone.
After the al, Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang noticed Jiang Xue and Lu Jintian had more to discuss, and voluntarily took Little Reunion to play. Shangguan Wenbin wisely returned upstairs.
Soon, only the siblings were left in the living room. Lu Jintian looked at Jiang Xue and said, "Xue’er, please tell everything you know."
"Brother, I actually don’t know much. At the end of last year, Old Sir Jiang and Old Madam Jiang ca to my house and said I was their granddaughter. Later, my husband specifically helped investigate my parents’ cause of death and found it had a huge connection to the Jiang Family."
"Are you sure?" Lu Jintian, though he already knew, still found it hard to accept hearing it directly. He actually held great hope for the Jiang Family. After all, they were his relatives and he wanted to et them.
Moreover, with his parents gone, he also wanted to fulfill filial duties on their behalf. But unexpectedly, the truth was so cruel, his parents’ deaths were actually connected to the Jiang Family.
"Of course!" Jiang Xue noticed Lu Jintian was deeply troubled, just like she was back then.
"Don’t be sad, without them, you still have ." Jiang Xue reached out, patting Lu Jintian’s shoulder, then said, "The investigation materials are with my husband. If you want it, I’ll call him to see if he can give you a copy."
"Alright, thank you." Lu Jintian accepted readily; Jiang Xue only gave a rough overview, and he wanted to know all the details.
"You’re welco. But it might take so ti; my husband has been hard to reach lately."
"No problem, no rush. But I’d like to go et Old Sir Jiang first. What do you think?"
