After Yao Xiner was settled, Ou Qingheng also went to the study to talk to James about the hospital. An An went to take a nap. Only two women, Yao Ting and Yao Yiyi, were left in the hall.
Yao Ting picked up a piece of apple and ate it slowly, and said casually: "Yao Xiner's behavior is rude, and her appearance is also very non-mainstream. She talks very well to everyone. It sounds warm at best, but it sounds like she has no personality at worst. You have the same eyesight, do you really plan to stay with such a young girl? I'm really afraid that she will get you into trouble."
Yao Yiyi also picked up a piece of apple and ate it, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"Xin'er people are actually not bad. They are much more enthusiastic than the Yao family in my impression, but their temperament is a bit out of line. She didn't say it. I really didn't expect that she had been a female soldier. Her current job is still training. A professional bodyguard, I feel that a career like coaching is not for a girl like her. She really exceeded my expectations."
Yao Yiyi didn't know what she thought of, but she actually chuckled.
Yao Ting rolled her eyes at her and said: "My dear, I'm telling you something serious, how can you still laugh? She has a job, hands and feet, and she won't starve to death. It's kind of you to arrange a place for her." I've done my duty and cut off all contact with her, otherwise I have a hunch that her temperament will cause you trouble one day."
Yao Yiyi smiled, turned to look at Yao Ting seriously, and said: "Tingting, I know you care about me, but I am no longer the young girl who was suppressed everywhere. I have been blind for two years. What do I know? What matters most to me is that if she really threatens me, I will keep my distance from her, but now she doesn’t, right? This is the request my dad made to me after so many years. As a daughter, I No matter what, I shouldn't reject him. If I ignore Xin'er, what will he think?"
Yao Ting moved her lips, her eyes flashed with anger, but she didn't get angry at Yao Yiyi.
After a few minutes, Yao Ting threw the toothpick in her hand on the table, swore in a low voice, and said angrily: "Yiyi, sometimes I really don't know what you think, they never do. I don’t think of you as my daughter, so why do you still have hope for them despite their cold affection?”
Yao Yiyi sighed and said quietly: "Tingting, I know what you mean, but maybe it's because I haven't had it since I was a child, so it has become an obsession. If possible, I would like to ask them, I If it was really not their biological daughter, why did they insist on adopting me back then? After all, I am not the only daughter in my family, right?"
Yao Ting looked at her deeply.
She understands Yao Yiyi's experience, but she just doesn't understand her mental journey very well. She is just an extremely indifferent family member. It's okay to reject such family members. But even though Yao Yiyi is over thirty, she still has a trace of affection towards her extremely cold relatives. Si thought about it.
She still couldn't understand what such a family relationship was for. It was like ribs, tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.
"My dear, you are already so old and have your own husband and son. Does it make sense to dwell on the past?" Yao Ting asked back.
Yao Yiyi was stunned for a moment, but her expression soon returned to normal.
"Tingting, I am not obsessed with the past. I just want to ask them if I have a chance. This question has been pressing in my heart for more than 20 years. Ever since I was sensible, I have faced the invisible family. The cold violence, they said they are my relatives, but there is no such thing as you and me. I just want to ask, if I am not their biological child, why do they still raise me? Since they raised me, why are they not willing to give me charity? Give me a little bit of patience? Or is my existence just because they were entrusted by the Huang family?" A trace of hatred finally flashed in Yao Yiyi's eyes, and he roared in a very suppressed voice.
Seeing Yao Yiyi obviously losing control, Yao Ting was really shocked. She grabbed Yao Yiyi's hand and asked hurriedly: "My dear, calm down, you have grown up, and there are people around you who love you." Your husband, your obedient son, and even your friends who will never leave you, no one from the Yao family can hurt you anymore."
Yao Yiyi looked at Yao Ting with a pair of dull eyes. Slowly, she came back to her senses.
She reluctantly smiled at Yao Ting and said, "Tingting, I'm sorry, I lost control." After saying that, she curled up her hair as if nothing had happened, as if the loss of control just now was not her fault at all.
Yao Ting sighed and said: "My dear, if you really mind, you won't feel comfortable if this matter has been pressing in your heart. Find a time to go back to Yao's house and ask directly, otherwise it will inevitably happen over time. Become your inner demon.”
Yao Yiyi smiled indifferently.
"Tingting, I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Okay, you can come in with me and take a nap with An An. It's Saturday now. I will take Xiner to go shopping tomorrow. I will go to work on Monday. Well, An An will also be sent to Ou's house to cultivate a relationship with my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I believe everything will develop in a good direction." Yao Yiyi stood up from the sofa and said nonchalantly.
Yao Ting looked at Yao Yiyi. She understood Yao Yiyi. The more Yao Yiyi pretended to be nonchalant, the more trouble she felt in her heart.
"My dear, you are really not cute at all. You obviously care so much in your heart, but you insist on pretending that you don't care about anything. If I didn't know you very well, I'm afraid you would have deceived me. Yao Ting also stood up from the sofa, shrugged, and said: "If you don't want to talk more about the Yao family, I won't force you. Go in and take a nap. I am free and easy for this day, and I will have to start tomorrow." I have been busy revising the manuscript, and the film and television adaptation of the novel is already preparing to start shooting. I am the original author of the novel, and also the film and television screenwriter of this novel. This is my first film and television adaptation as a screenwriter, so I want to replenish my energy." That's what Yao Ting said, but Yao Ting already had a measure.
The two of them went into the bedroom, one on the left and the other on the right, lying next to An An, and soon fell asleep.
After a midday nap, Yao Ting felt very energetic. She kissed An An on the little cheek, and An An kissed her twice in return. Yao Ting said: "My dear, let's go." Then she said to An An: " My precious godson, your godmother will be busy with work these days, and her schedule will be a bit reversed day and night. If your call to your godmother doesn’t work, don’t take it to mean that your godmother doesn’t like you. Wait until your godmother is busy during this period. Your mother and you will take you to the amusement park."
An An nodded obediently and said in a sweet voice: "Godmother, please call daddy, not a bad guy."
Yao Ting glanced at Ou Qingheng who was standing not far away with a smirk, nodded and said: "Okay, no big bad guy. Anyway, you are with the big bad guy every day, and sometimes you get tired of it."
An An nodded very proudly.
Yao Yiyi looked at the interaction between the two of them and was very dumbfounded.
After Yao Ting left, she took the elevator downstairs and got into her car. She dialed the number from Yao Yiyi. After the call was connected, she said straight to the point: "Uncle Yao? I'm Yao. Ting, my neighbor’s daughter used to live across from your house. You have met mine. I have something to tell you. I wonder if you are free now?”
There was silence for a moment, and then a low and hoarse voice came: "You ask, I'm listening."
"Uncle Yao, you have been indifferent to Yiyi all these years, as if this daughter never existed. Do you really dislike her so much? But if you don't like her, why do you even know her phone number that she has changed for two years? , even after so many years, you suddenly called her and asked her to take care of your brother's daughter? What is your purpose in doing this? "
After a pause, Yao Ting's voice turned cold: "Uncle, Yiyi has suffered as much as you think over the years. If you still think of her as your daughter, don't hurt her."
There was another long silence. Just when Yao Ting thought that Yao's father would not answer, he spoke: "I didn't want to hurt her, but I was favored by others and promised not to be too good to Yiyi in my life, so let Yiyi takes care of Xin'er just because she wants to know through Xin'er whether she is doing well these years."
Yao Ting was so excited that her hand holding the phone trembled: "Uncle, since you still care about Yiyi, why can't you give her a little tenderness in front of her? Isn't the indifference of the past thirty years not enough? ?"
There was silence for a moment, and he simply hung up the phone.
Looking at the blacked-out mobile phone screen, Yao Ting swallowed back the words she was about to blurt out, and her eyes became very deep. From what Yao's father just said, it can be heard that Yao Yiyi may not really be his biological daughter. It is also possible that he had to adopt Yao Yiyi because he was favored by someone, and the person who gave the child to him prevented him from being too kind to the child.
But who is so cruel as to give away a child of several years old to someone else and prevent that family from being so kind to the child
Yao Ting's mind was in knots. She thought that Yao Yiyi's true life experience might be much more complicated than she imagined.
In her mind, she couldn't help but think of the horror and hatred that flashed in Father Huang's eyes when he saw Yao Yiyi. Could it be that he designed to give the child to the Yao family? But assuming Yao Yiyi is really his daughter, why would he do this again? Who would be so cruel as to not even want their own children
Yao Ting slowly drove the car and called Li Haoran, asking him to help thoroughly investigate the disappearance of the daughter of the Huang family in Shanghai.
Li Haoran didn't ask much about the reason and promised that he would help her find out.
"Haoran, thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, come over to my place tonight."
"good."
Yao Ting was also happy. They had already had sex, and any more coyness would seem pretentious.
The two of them chatted with each other for a while, and Li Haoran said: "Tingting, although you and Yiyi are good friends, I think it's better for you to have less involvement in her family background. If she really needs your help, , she will tell you that you are busy now, and I am afraid that you will end up saying something bad."
Yao Ting was silent for a moment and said: "I know, I will save myself like this."
"As long as you know, come over tonight and we'll have dinner together."
"good."
