Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 64: Each with Their Own Plans

    

re, especially the food. You wouldn't want to know what it is.""Yes!"Fu Tianxing immediately replied.Then, open the backpack and distribute food to everyone."Master Wu, how are the classmates who came...Wu Junyi couldn't sit still any longer. He rolled his eyes directly, got up, and said:

"Dad, Mom, sis, you guys chat first. I still have to write my test papers, so I won't keep you company."

"You, child!"

Wan Guifen's displeased frown, but Wu Junyi simply ignored it and walked away.

Zhao Xianrou's eyes flashed, and she looked expectantly at Wu Junyi's closed room door, then asked in a low voice:

"Does my brother not like me"

"Of course not, you are his older sister. He's just not familiar with you. You guys will get along after spending some time together."

Wan Gui-fen smiled and said.

I haven't given the gift to my brother yet.

Ci er said, and then took the gift box, taking out each present one by one, and then somewhat shyly said:

"Father and Mother, I don't know what you like, so I chose gifts according to my own intentions. I hope you like them."

He said, giving Mr. Wu a bottle of high-end liquor. He gave Wan Guifen a pearl necklace, the kind that looked very expensive at first glance, and to Wu Junyi he gave a high-end Parker pen.

Wang Guifen looked at the gift in her hand, her eyes couldn't hide her joy. This pearl necklace and silk scarf weren't in the same league; her heart tipped further towards her biological daughter.

"You, child, how could you be so extravagant."

Although Wu Yong was happy, he still said to Xianrou not to spend money recklessly.

These gifts were bought with my lucky money and the money I earned as a translator during summer vacation.

Xiān róu smiled softly and explained.

Wan Guifen lovingly touched the smooth, round white pearl in her hand. She couldn't bear to put it on.

"Mother, let me help you put it on."

Saying so, she walked over gently and placed the pearl necklace around Wan Guifen's neck.

“So beautiful, it makes Mother look younger.”

insincere praise still made Wan Guifen's eyes crinkle with a smile.

"It warms our hearts to see you grow so well. Although this mistake separated us for seventeen years, I can't deny that it shaped you into the person you are today."

"I understand that in your eyes, Mr. Zhao and his wife are your parents. On this point, we don't force you. For your future development, we won't ask you to return to our side."

Wan Guifen's voice trembled as she spoke, her eyes welling up with tears. After all, this was her child, born after ten months of carrying him in her womb.

A hint of disdain flashed in Zhao Xianrou's eyes, and she said lightly:

"Father, mother, in this matter, I am also a victim. On the surface, it might seem like I benefited and have a comfortable life. But in that circle, I also have to strive hard to keep up or I will be left behind. And I've learned a lot too."

Once the ripples return to the Zhao family, I will be an outsider who has taken another's nest, and will also become a laughingstock in the circle. Besides, I already have a fiancee, who is the child of an official. A marriage between our families would be a powerful alliance. Because of the identity swap between me and Lian'er, all of this might just become a bubble.

The more Zhao Xiaorou spoke, the lower her voice became, filled with a multitude of grievances.

"Child, you don't have to worry about these things. You just need to hold onto what belongs to you firmly. I'll take care of Ripples' side of things. After all, she's our child, and she still listens to us."

Wan Guifen saw that her daughter was wronged, and immediately walked over, holding the other's hand, and softly soothed her.

Wu Yong frowned but didn't say anything.

What was originally Wu Lianyi's room now had a small crack open, and the conversation from the living room came into Wu Junyi's ears word for word. His expression, like Wu Yong's, was one of confusion, but his eyes held more bewilderment.

When the ripples returned to Wu's family, both sides politely bid farewell again. Zhao Xianrou still followed Zhou Mengyu and promised that she would stay until the start of school before leaving. During this time, she would try her best to spend time with Wu's family.

"Mom and Dad, how did you get along with Xianrou today"

Wu Lianyi nibbled on the apple brought by the Zhao family, and naturally asked.

"She's a good child, but she's a little distant from us."

Wan Guifen sighed.

"It's quite normal, I feel a little awkward when facing them too. It feels like I lack manners if I don't behave properly."

When she heard this, Wan Guifen's eyes lit up, and she smiled and said:

"Ripple, you don't have to pressure yourself either. Just be yourself, you are good, no different from Lin Rou."

In your eyes, you naturally think I'm the best.

Wu Lianyi also laughed and said.

"By the way, my parents rented a place near the school for me. I'll be living there from Monday to Friday and come back on the weekends to see you all."

"Where did you rent How much is the rent"

Wan Gui Fen immediately asked.

"The postal district, on the third floor, was still under construction. They said Junyi is a big kid now, so it's not convenient this way. I left, at least Junyi has his own room."

Wu Lianyi said nonchalantly.

Wu Yong and Wan Guifen looked at each other, feeling that the Zhao family was being too fussy. However, they knew that apartment complex; it housed retired military personnel, the location was good, close to the school, and the rent would definitely not be cheap.

"If you live there alone, how can we rest assured"

Wan Guifen immediately rebuked him, then continued:

"I'll still go with you!"

"Mom, come stay with me. What about Dad and Junyi Besides, Zhao my father said he'll arrange a live-in nanny from Shanghai to take care of me, handle all three meals and my needs. You don't have to worry."

That one sentence completely shut down Wan Guifen's thoughts.

"Sister, come over and explain this problem to me."

Wu Junyi timely called away Lianyi, and Wu Yong also gestured to Wan Guifen. The two entered their bedroom and closed the door.

"Guifen, I just wanted to talk to you. What did you mean saying those things to Xianrou Are you suggesting that we raise two daughters for the Zhao family Then what am I, Wu Yong, supposed to be"

Wu Yong was a little displeased. This involved his face as a man. Before he didn't know his daughter had been switched, he still raised her. Even more so now.

Wàn Guìfēn glared at him before speaking.

"How much is your face worth You need to consider the reality. Lianri and Junyi are facing the middle school entrance exam and the college entrance exam, respectively. Where will the money for their university expenses come from after they get into university With just me and you working at the factory earning a pittance, could we possibly afford two college students"

Ripples is the daughter of the Zhao family, and she will definitely not go to a bad university in the future. Finer has been attending aristocratic schools since she was young, with tuition fees reaching one hundred thousand yuan per year. There are also cultivated interests and hobbies, such as an ancient qin that costs tens of thousands of yuan, and teaching fees are still charged by the hour.p in!"The fat man immediately pulled open the car door and motioned for Ripples to get in before he got in himself. Once inside, he immediately instructed the driver to start the car while explaining...
