Chapter 83: Searching Together
"What is the relationship between Yuan Qiuxia and you?"
Xia Xiaoxiao was caught off guard and went straight in, which made Zhuo Jiali's heart jump a few times, it seems that the pendants of her and Xia Xiaoxiao are indeed the same piece, and what is the intricate relationship?
So far, Zhuo Jiali doesn't want to sell anything, she just wants to know the truth as soon as possible.
"She's my mom. ”
The pen that Xia Xiaoxiao was holding in his hand fell on the table all of a sudden, but it didn't drown the "rumble" sound in the ears of the two of them.
After a long time, Xia Xiaoxiao took out a box from the drawer, slowly opened it and handed it to Zhuo Jiali, which seemed to be the key thing in this special topic - a purple crystal heart-shaped pendant.
What has only existed in photos for so many years suddenly appeared in front of the eyes of the real world, and Zhuo Jiali has always wondered if she is dreaming. What made her feel like she was in a dream was Xia Xiaoxiao's low answer.
"She is also my biological mother. ”
Zhuo Jiali raised her head violently like an electric shock, staring at Xia Xiaoxiao's eyes, as if she wanted to look into her heart, to see if she was coaxing herself or just telling a joke.
But it didn't.
Everything is so real that there is no room for questioning.
Zhuo Jiali and Xia Xiaoxiao, two people who should not be able to beat each other, are actually half-sisters.
It seemed like a century had passed for another century, and Zhuo Jiali asked softly what she originally wanted to ask Zhuo Laosan just now.
"Where is she now?"
Xia Xiaoxiao shook his head, and his helpless look made Zhuo Jiali's heart cold.
"I also only found out about Mommy's existence before she died, before I went to Canada to look for her, but I didn't find her, I don't know where she moved to, and my dad has not heard from her since he was imprisoned. ”
Zhuo Jiali took out the pendant from the box and looked carefully at the items that belonged to her mother, the letters "QX" on the back of the pendant stinging her eyes. She finally looked away from the pendant and looked at Xia Xiaoxiao, her sister.
Since she was a child, she was the only one in the family, and she didn't have any brothers and sisters to play with, Zhuo Jiali has always felt very lonely, and she has no one to talk to. Now, God suddenly jokingly sent her such a big sister, and she didn't know how to express her messy mood for a while.
Xia Xiaoxiao is the same, although she enjoys Xia Yuheng and Cai Kaiqi's doting on her, but after all, they are adults, and the age difference between them and herself is not ordinarily big, and she really wants to play like friends, and she didn't find a few real playmates in her childhood.
And in her life without her father and mommy, she suddenly has a sister with the same ingredients in her blood, and she doesn't know whether she is happy or worried.
Coupled with the special connection of Cen Bowen before, the past between Zhuo Jiali and Xia Xiaoxiao is filled with only discordant tones. But now that I think back on all kinds of series, maybe the lives of the two of them have already been mysteriously fitted together, and one day they will go to the same place and go to each other.
No one can guess God's will, but it is there to go the way it should be.
Zhuo Jiali's eyes were mixed with complex emotions, and she didn't know where to find an outlet for catharsis. It's just that I finally found some things that I had to do, and besides, I had a partner to do it together.
"Shall we go to Canada together?"
The two sisters wanted to go together, and in the face of Zhuo Jiali's expectant eyes, Xia Xiaoxiao nodded firmly.
The addition of Zhuo Jiali makes this foreign search for relatives no longer a rash act.
Before leaving, Shang Qingyuan had arrived in Canada ahead of schedule according to Zhuo Jiali's instructions, and contacted the local consulate, entry and exit, private detective agencies and other agencies. After a round of careful investigation, Yuan Qiuxia's new address was in Zhuo Jiali's hands within a few days.
Based on the unbelievable relationship between Zhuo Jiali and Xia Xiaoxiao, Zhuo Jiali did not tell Shang Qingyuan why she was looking for this person, let alone told him that she was going abroad with Xia Xiaoxiao.
After Yuan Qiuxia's whereabouts were found, Shang Qingyuan returned to Zhenzhong to help deal with daily matters, and Zhuo Jiali and Xia Xiaoxiao booked the same flight and went straight to their destinations.
Yuan Qiuxia was worried all day long after learning the news of his arrest from Xia Yuheng's assistant, for fear that the investigation of Xia Yuheng would trace him to him, and at that time he was empty of people and money.
So she sold the seaside mansion as quickly as possible, and she moved to a remote village in Canada to buy a small house.
These days, Yuan Qiuxia only chooses one day a week to go to different supermarkets in the city to buy food and daily necessities. On this day, she had just driven back to the garage, but she saw two young women of considerable stature standing in front of the house looking around, and she couldn't help but panic, could it be that what she was worried about had happened? But looking at the appearance of those two women, they really didn't look like policemen.
Yuan Qiuxia suspiciously paced to the bottom of the steps at the door.
"Hey, who are you looking for?"
Zhuo Jiali and Xia Xiaoxiao turned their heads in the direction of the sound together, and both of them stared at the woman in front of them without blinking their eyes.
Although Yuan Qiuxia has never returned to China, she has seen Xia Xiaoxiao's photos from Xia Yuheng in the past, and when she saw it at this time, she was also stunned with wide eyes.
The mother and daughter were at the door, and they didn't move for a long time.
In the middle of the night, Yuan Qiuxia let out a long sigh, walked up the steps to bypass the two of them, opened the door with the key, and then turned back to them and said, "Come in." ”
Xia Xiaoxiao also read from Yuan Qiuxia's eyes that she had recognized herself, so she pulled Zhuo Jiali into the house after her.
Yuan Qiuxia's house is small, not the same as her original seaside villa, but it is more than enough as a residence that she only wants to use for solitary hiding.
There was only a two-person sofa in the middle of the living room, and Yuan Qiuxia moved a chair from elsewhere and sat in front of them. Seeing that the empty coffee table forgot to pour tea, Yuan Qiuxia wanted to get up and get a bottle of water for them, but Xia Xiaoxiao called out to her.
"No, let's just talk. ”
Yuan Qiuxia was not reluctant, and sat down silently again. Zhuo Jiali also smelled that Yuan Qiuxia knew Xia Xiaoxiao, but she obviously had no feelings for herself, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.
"Who is this?"
Yuan Qiuxia asked Zhuo Jiali about Xia Xiaoxiao, and Zhuo Jiali didn't know the bottom of her heart, so she grabbed the lines.
"I'm from the sky...... Friend, come with her. ”
"Oh. ”
Yuan Qiuxia responded casually, and her eyes focused on Xia Xiaoxiao again.
"How did you find me?"
"You're planning to never recognize me?"
Xia Xiaoxiao's emotions that had been stored for a long time were a little irrepressible when she finally met her biological mother, and her voice was full of excitement and trembling.
"Nope. It's just that I can't, and I, too, don't deserve it. ”
Yuan Qiuxia's pale face, as if she was being judged, was full of self-denial and reproach between the words.
"Why did you leave me alone to join the country?"
"I can't help it!"
Yuan Qiuxia's tone changed, and she was anxious to defend herself.
"Back then, your good mother threatened your father, there was only one choice between me and her, and I was also a person who was left behind, who can I ask for what belongs to me!"
"Then why did you get involved between them in the first place?!"
Xia Xiaoxiao chased after him, Yuan Qiuxia was poked in the soft underbelly, and the whole person instantly deflated and remained silent.
"Also, you haven't thought about coming back to see me for so long? The only thing you did after my dad's accident was to evaporate from the world! Do you know how helpless I was during that time? You didn't even think about coming back to me to give me a trace of pity and support?!"
Xia Xiaoxiao vented all the tangled pain in her heart like a cannonball, and these were Yuan Qiuxia's selfish plans for herself, and in front of her daughter, who had not seen her for many years, her personality was shattered.
"I," Yuan Qiuxia finally squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, "there is nothing I can do." ”
"Can't do anything?"
Zhuo Jiali, who had been patient for a long time, stood up excitedly.
"What about me? You ruthlessly threw away one of your own biological children one after another, and lived happily on your own, won't your conscience hurt!"
Yuan Qiuxia felt like she had been hit on the door of the head by a heavy object, buzzing, and the pain was inexplicable. She stared at Zhuo Jiali's face with horror on her face, the eyes of this woman she met for the first time were indeed a little familiar, like-
I fascinated the eyes of thousands of men.
Don't?!
"Yes. ”
Zhuo Jiali said lightly the answer to Yuan Qiuxia's inner question.
"I'm your daughter who didn't care before she was a year old, Zhuo Jiali. ”
