Chapter 309: We Are Sorry To Yuan Yuan
Shen Airu hesitated for a moment before dialing Meng Zhiwei’s phone.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed…”
Shen Airu made two more calls, both of which indicated they could not be connected.
She frowned tightly, then clicked open Wei Fangfei’s Moments.
Shen Airu thought for a moment, then opened Wei Fangfei’s chat window and edited a message before sending it.
【 Fangfei, did you meet with Weiwei tonight? 】
As soon as Wei Fangfei got into the car, she saw Shen Airu’s message and pressed the voice message button, saying, “Sister-in-law, yes, but Weiwei didn’t feel well later, so she went back early.”
After listening to the voice message, Shen Airu sent another message: 【 The other girl, your friend, was she brought by Weiwei? 】
Wei Fangfei froze when she saw the message.
Why did Shen Airu think Yuan Yuan was brought by Weiwei?
Wei Fangfei pressed the voice message button: “Sister-in-law, what’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Shen Airu thought about it and did not conceal anything, directly explaining the situation.
She also replied with a voice message this time: “Fangfei, didn’t Weiwei tell you? The girl in the photo is Jiang Yuan, and she is actually my biological daughter.”
After hearing this, Wei Fangfei was stunned for a long time.
What was Shen Airu saying?
Wei Fangfei doubted her ears and played it again.
She hadn’t misheard; Shen Airu said Jiang Yuan was her biological daughter.
Jiang Yuan… was actually the Meng family’s biological daughter who had been lost?
But why didn’t Weiwei say anything tonight and pretended not to know Jiang Yuan?
Wei Fangfei frowned tightly, her mind full of confusion.
Didn’t Weiwei know Jiang Yuan?
Recalling Meng Zhiwei’s unusual behavior tonight, Wei Fangfei dismissed this guess.
It was impossible that she didn’t know Jiang Yuan.
Wei Fangfei suddenly felt that things were going terribly wrong.
When she went to the restroom, Meng Zhiwei could have told her the truth, but she didn’t.
Wei Fangfei then remembered Meng Zhiwei complaining to her once about her biological niece being a girl of low character and vain.
Jiang Yuan? Low character? Vain?
That’s ridiculous.
Jiang Yuan is a good girl who treats money like dirt.
Probably because Wei Fangfei didn’t reply for a long time, Shen Airu sent another message: “Fangfei, why did you all meet tonight?”
Wei Fangfei replied truthfully: “Sister-in-law, Yuan Yuan is a specially appointed animal consultant at the zoo. I arranged tonight’s meeting. Yuan Yuan was not brought by Weiwei.”
Shen Airu was surprised for a long time after hearing this.
A specially appointed animal consultant at the zoo?
She seemed very capable.
It seemed the information they had investigated before was indeed untrustworthy. It had even said that Jiang Yuan was an uneducated person who only wanted to extort money from the second generation rich.
Wei Fangfei sent another text message: 【 Sister-in-law, may I ask why, knowing that Yuan Yuan is your biological daughter, you haven’t acknowledged her? 】
This question made Shen Airu feel deeply ashamed.
Why…
Because they had believed what was written in the information and had a bad impression of Jiang Yuan from the beginning. In addition, they had to consider Meng Yunlan’s feelings, so they kept postponing it.
Moreover, they had spoken to the Jiang family about this matter, but the Jiang family’s reaction was indifferent, and they hadn’t contacted them…
It wasn’t until last time when she and Meng Zhengliang personally visited, wanting to meet Jiang Yuan and ask her thoughts, that they were pranked by that vicious neighbor, who made them think Jiang Yuan had an accident.
It was from that moment that Shen Airu realized how important her biological daughter was to her.
However, due to her initial hesitation, she felt guilty. She had wanted to contact Jiang Yuan during this period but felt too ashamed.
Shen Airu sighed and directly initiated a voice call, telling Wei Fangfei all these thoughts.
After listening to her, Wei Fangfei found it absurd.
“No… Sister-in-law, when you get to know someone, shouldn’t you feel it yourself? Investigating that information only shows that you investigated; it doesn’t mean that’s who Yuan Yuan is.”
“And even going back ten thousand steps, she is your biological daughter. Even if she were extremely incorrigible, you brought her into this world, the child you carried for ten months. Can’t you spend some time with her yourself and feel out her character?”
“I know I was wrong.” Shen Airu’s eyes turned red, and she choked out, “Fangfei, you’re right to scold me.”
Wei Fangfei: “…When did I scold you?”
Shen Airu was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said, “You’re right, I was confused.”
“Sigh.” Wei Fangfei was filled with pity for Jiang Yuan at this moment. “Yuan Yuan is so pitiful to be misunderstood by you all like this for no reason. Let me tell you, she is a very, very good girl.”
Although she hadn’t spent much time with Jiang Yuan, she could feel Jiang Yuan’s goodness.
“I know we were wrong. We are sorry to Yuan Yuan.” Shen Airu’s heart was filled with guilt and pain.
“You guys…” Wei Fangfei paused slightly, but couldn’t help but say, “You usually seem quite smart, why are you so confused about this matter?”
Last time, when Meng Zhiwei complained to her about her biological niece, she had told her that maybe there was a misunderstanding, and they would know after bringing her back and getting along for a while.
She didn’t expect them to discard her just because the investigation said she wasn’t a good girl?
Unbelievable.
Perhaps because she had had a bit too much to drink, Wei Fangfei grew angrier the more she thought about it. “You are truly a bizarre family.”
Shen Airu was so scolded that she didn’t dare to refute and even agreed, “Yes, you’re right, we really have brain problems.”
“Speaking of which, if you look down on her, perhaps she looks down on you too.” Wei Fangfei snorted lightly. “Her family’s financial situation is not bad now.”
Shen Airu was stunned for a moment. If Wei Fangfei said her family’s financial situation wasn’t bad, what kind of family would that be?
But as far as she knew, the Jiang family’s economy wasn’t very good.
“Is Yuan Yuan’s current family well-off?” Shen Airu asked.
Wei Fangfei: “Very much so.”
Shen Airu fell silent.
What was going on now…
“Sister-in-law, you all think about it yourselves. I’m hanging up.” Wei Fangfei ended the voice call.
Shen Airu looked at her phone, completely lost in thought.
Meng Zhiwei turned off her phone as soon as she got home and turned it on again the next morning.
She saw the Moments post Wei Fangfei had sent last night, and Meng Yunlan had liked it.
Meng Zhiwei’s expression changed slightly. She clicked on her contacts and indeed saw the three missed calls from Shen Airu last night.
She tightened her grip on her phone, her expression solemn.
Meng Zhiwei turned her head to look at the photo frame on the bedside table. In the photo, she was affectionately linking arms with a woman, their two young faces radiating bright smiles.
She retracted her gaze and dialed Meng Yunlan’s number.
“Auntie,” Meng Yunlan’s voice was muffled.
Meng Zhiwei said softly, “Lanlan.”
There was silence on the other end of the line. Meng Yunlan on the other side held her phone, her gaze resentful.
Meng Zhiwei’s tone became a little more coaxing: “Can we meet up, Auntie?”
