Fang Pingying looked at Zeng Yueji’s extrely nervous expression and suddenly had so clarity in her heart.
At the sa ti, she suddenly rembered the Aunt Li from Zeng Yueji’s shop who had co last ti. She had felt her eyes looked familiar and now suddenly recalled that Aunt Li’s eyes bore so resemblance to her own.
Adding on the words said by Aunt Zeng last ti and the questions Aunt Zeng specifically ca to ask her today, she seed to guess about seventy to eighty percent of it.
Therefore, when she responded to Aunt Zeng’s question, Fang Pingying was sowhat flustered, incredulous, and mixed with a trace of resentnt.
But because it was Zeng Yueji, she still controlled her emotions, just looking at her and shaking her head indifferently, indicating she had no interest in knowing who her biological parents were, "I don’t know, my current parents picked up from outside, and I never asked about my biological parents."
Zeng Yueji seed to see her mood, stretched out her hand to gently hold hers, sighed, and then asked, "Do you hate your biological parents?"
Fang Pingying scoffed, "I don’t even recognize them. How could there be any hate? I have never thought about looking for them."
Zeng Yueji looked at her, and after a long ti, tentatively said, "Perhaps they had compelling reasons?"
Fang Pingying didn’t pick up the conversation, just looked at Zeng Yueji for a while, and then directly asked the question in her heart, "Auntie, if I’m not guessing wrong, the Aunt Li who ca to the shop with you last ti has so connection to my background, right?"
"This..." Zeng Yueji was sowhat embarrassed, didn’t respond, and her eyes dodged off to the side as if to evade the question.
Seeing her expression, Fang Pingying was pretty much certain, and she was sure that Aunt Li had also co last ti but didn’t have the courage to et her.
She smiled faintly, "Regardless of the relationship, please convey to her that I am doing well now, I’m married, have my own family, and my business is not bad either. I have never thought my life would change because of them."
"Pingying, frankly speaking, if there is no mistake, you are likely the daughter of the Aunt Li who went to your shop with last ti." Seeing that Fang Pingying had guessed it, Zeng Yueji no longer hid the truth and intended to explain after providing clarity, "The reason for abandoning you was indeed because we had no other choice, you..."
Fang Pingying felt that even if there was an explanation, it shouldn’t be Aunt Zeng to give it. She interrupted Zeng Yueji’s words, "Auntie, let it be. Regardless of whether it was forced or not, I’m grown up now, and it doesn’t matter whether I have biological parents or not. Over these years, the Fang Family’s parents have raised . I’ve long thought of them as my real parents, let’s leave it at that."
"Pingying, actually..."
Zeng Yueji still wanted to say sothing, but Fang Pingying no longer wanted to hear it. She stopped Zeng Yueji from continuing, "Auntie, please go inside and sit in the shop for a while. Wait until Uncle Zeng and Zhiyong finish talking, then leave together. Take so pastries back for Yaoyao to eat."
Seeing Fang Pingying’s intentions, Zeng Yueji couldn’t say more and sighed before shaking her head, "No, I’ll just stand here and wait for your Uncle Zeng. You go ahead and be busy."
"Mhm." Fang Pingying replied and then turned around and went back inside the shop.
In fact, although Fang Pingying had said so much to Zeng Yueji just now, she still sowhat couldn’t believe what they had said up to this mont; it felt like a dream.
Although she had known since childhood that she was picked up by the Fang Family and raised, regardless of whether the Fang family treated her well or not, she never considered looking for her biological parents.
She didn’t know if it was because she had accepted this reality, or because she felt that finding soone in the vast sea of people was too difficult, or perhaps more so because she felt hatred in her heart for being abandoned by her biological parents, feeling that since they didn’t want her initially, there was no need for her to cling to them and search for them.
Even in her previous life, until the day Fang Pingying died, there was no ntion of her biological parents coming to find her, so in this life, she never thought about it.
Now, suddenly soone claims to be looking for her to acknowledge her, and she doesn’t know what to feel.
After entering the shop, she just stood there in a daze at the cash register, and even when Uncle Zeng ca to greet her as he was leaving, it took her a long ti to respond.
Luo Zhiyong noticed sothing was off with her, so after sending Uncle Zeng off, he asked Luo Honglan and Yu’er to tidy up the shop, and took Fang Pingying to the back of the shop.
He made her sit on Luo Honglan’s bed, and Luo Zhiyong asked her, "What did Aunt Zeng tell you just now, why did you suddenly look pale?"
Fang Pingying turned her dazed gaze towards Luo Zhiyong, but it was obvious she hadn’t heard what Luo Zhiyong had said.
Seeing her like this, Luo Zhiyong got anxious, sat down beside her, took her into his arms, and gently cooed a few words.
Fang Pingying leaned into Luo Zhiyong’s embrace, slling the familiar scent on his body, and felt sowhat at ease.
After calming down for a bit, she sat up in his arms and said to Luo Zhiyong in a tone even she found unbelievable, "I might have found my biological parents?"
"Biological parents?" Luo Zhiyong was also startled. After calming down for a mont, he imdiately thought of Zeng Yueji who had been talking to Fang Pingying, "Is it related to Aunt Zeng? Is that what she was talking to you about?"
Fang Pingying nodded, "Yeah, not long ago, soon after I opened the shop, Aunt Zeng brought soone with the last na Li to my shop. She said that person might be my biological mother?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiyong’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "You’ve t her before?"
Fang Pingying shook her head as she looked at him, "No, the previous ti when the person surnad Li ca with her, she was always wearing a face mask, and besides, Fang Xiu was here at that ti. They thought Fang Xiu was my biological sister and may have thought they got the wrong person, so they never ntioned it again. I never thought about it in that way at all."
"How did they suddenly know?"
Fang Pingying thought for a mont and rembered ntioning to juzi in the past that she had been picked up by the Fang Family, then replied, "I guess it was when I talked to juzi about my family issues, and juzi must have told her mother."
Luo Zhiyong guessed it was a possibility too and nodded.
A mont later, seeing that Fang Pingying seed to have cald down, Luo Zhiyong softly asked, "If Aunt Zeng’s friend really is your biological mother, what do you plan to do?"
In fact, Fang Pingying herself was also a little confused, as this was no small matter.
Though she said with certainty in front of Zeng Yueji, no one isn’t curious about their own origins.
In front of Luo Zhiyong, Fang Pingying didn’t hide her feelings and looked at him uncertainly, "If it’s true, what do you think I should do?"
Luo Zhiyong thought for a mont, then said to her, "It depends on what you feel in your heart. If you want to acknowledge them, I support you. If not, then let’s pretend nothing happened. Our life is quite good as it is now. In a little while, once the child is born, our family of three will live comfortably just like now."
He paused, then looked at her, gently stroking her hair, his eyes filled with doting love, "As long as you feel at peace with yourself, that is what matters." (To be continued.
