Chapter Twenty-Three: Her Background Revealed!
However, at that time, he was still a child.
remembers the only time Song Lingrui rebelled against him when he was a child, he was locked in the study without eating or drinking all day, and his wife Xu Yashi also quarreled with him because of this. However, in Song Yanyi's eyes, this is fate. In his childhood, how could he not have been educated by his father's extremely high requirements? This is the life of the Song family, and it is the life of the heir of the family.
Song Yanyi stopped outside the study for a long time, and when he saw that Song Lingrui's voice was no longer heard in the room, he shook his head helplessly and left quietly.
Xu Yashi has always told him that only by believing in his son can he become a good father. So, how can you believe in Song Lingrui? What makes a good father? But he never knew about it......
In the room, Song Lingrui covered his face and sighed, the computer was full of information about the fire in the Xia family's mansion eighteen years ago, according to the information and his mother's testimony, the fire almost burned down the Xia family, but the safe, which was hidden deepest, was taken back to the Song family by Mrs. Song for safekeeping.
Mrs. Xia and Xia Yu and his wife were all buried in the fire, and Xia Yu's wife Liu Qing still had multiple knife wounds on her body, and Xia Yu had a knife wound on her wrist.
This mysterious accidental fire is known as the "Xia Family Villa Fire Case".
Xia Yu, chairman of Xia's enterprise, and his wife died of fatal injuries caused by the blade, the old lady Xia died of suffocation, and the whereabouts of Xia Yuanye and Xia Qingming, the heirs of Xia's enterprise, are unknown, and their lives and deaths are uncertain.
The remaining assets of Xia's enterprises are temporarily managed by its partner Song's enterprises, and they have also developed steadily in recent years.
This is the fire data from 18 years ago.
But...... Except for the valuable ruby bracelet, there is no evidence that can prove that Lin Jiayi is Xia Qingming!
"If, you really are...... Between us, it will be much smoother than it is now......"
The next morning, when the sunlight entered the study through the window, Song Lingrui had already woken up. Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he glanced at the blanket he was wearing and smiled helplessly. Presumably, my mother came in last night and covered herself, right?
After washing, Song Lingrui came to the dining room, the servants had neatly placed breakfast on the table, and her mother Xu Yashi sat at the table, looking at the pile of materials in her hand, while enjoying a hot breakfast.
"Mom."
"Ling Rui, it's just in time, you have breakfast first, and then go out with me later."
"Where?"
Before he could finish asking, Xu Yashi glanced at her son lightly, and couldn't help reproaching: "I'll talk about it later, you eat first, time waits for no one!" β
Yesterday, after Song Lingrui learned that the current owner of the bracelet was Lin Jiayi, Xu Yashi immediately sent someone to retrieve the information of Lin Jiayi and her parents, from which another secret was dug out by her.
Lin Jiayi is 26 years old this year, his father Lin Sheng is 42 years old, and his mother Su Wanru is 41 years old.
Lin Sheng and his wife are not the biological parents of this brother and sister at all! In other words, Lin Jiayi and Lin Shengyu are likely to be Xia Qingming and Xia Yuanye, who had no news back then.
In the speeding car, Xu Yashi sat in the co-pilot, glanced at the road in front of her with cold eyes, and glanced sideways at Song Lingrui, who was driving: "Where is Lin Jiayi's home, you should know, right?" β
"Why did you suddenly go to Jiayi's house? What's the matter with her? β
"I'm not looking for her." Xu Yashi clasped her hands on her chest and ordered in an unquestioning tone, "Her parents, they are the ones I want to see." Just send me there. β
However, the sports car slowly stopped on the side of the road. "Jiayi lives with her brother and sister, and her parents are not here, where are you going to find them?"
"Then you just call and ask! Do everything you can to find out where her parents are! β
Faced with his mother's request, Song Lingrui refused or not, hesitated for a while, and had to slowly take out the phone and dial Lin Shengyu.
"Dut...... "After ...... connected, Lin Shengyu's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Song Lingrui, is there anything to find me?"
"Shengyu, where do your parents live now? My mother she ......"
Lin Shengyu listened to Song Lingrui's slightly nervous tone, and couldn't help but guess that it was Song Lingrui's mother who knew about the relationship between him and Lin Jiayi, so she wanted to come over to meet Lin Jiayi's parents, maybe, this is the time for the relationship between the two to heat up! "My parents live with us now, No. 401, but now they are the only ones at home, Jiayi and Linlin go to school, and I am in the office."
"Or, I'll give them a call?"
Song Lingrui was just about to answer, when he saw Xu Yashi keep signaling to him: "No need, let's go directly." β
The phone then hangs up.
Song Lingrui's heart felt inexplicably uneasy, his mother suddenly wanted to find Lin Jiayi's parents, what the purpose was, he didn't know, but, seeing his mother so serious, it was obviously an extremely important matter.
has been on the battlefield for a long time, and her mother Xu Yashi has been in the two major fields of business and medicine over the years, and there are very few people who can make this battle-hardened strong woman show such an alert look.
A few minutes later, standing under Lin Jiayi's apartment building, Xu Yashi slowly took off the sunglasses on her face and looked at the apartment.
That's what it is...... Where does Miss Xia live now? It's a little small......
Song Lingrui followed closely behind his mother, waiting in front of the slowly descending elevator door.
After a while, I will meet Lin Jiayi's parents......
Although this is not strictly a meeting with his parents, he still feels the feeling of thumping from the fiery heart in his left chest.
The elevator doors finally opened.
Song Lingrui took this heavy step, his face sank, and cold sweat continued to break out in his palms. On the side, her mother Xu Yashi's expression was particularly natural, and even a little incredibly calm......
"Tuk Tuk!"
Lin Sheng and his wife were watching TV in the living room, and a sudden knock on the door couldn't help but startle them. Shengyu? Or Jiayi? Or is it someone else?
Su Wanru walked quickly to open the door, and was greeted by a beautiful woman with a noble temperament, and in an instant, Su Wanru's hand stopped in mid-air.
"Wanru, who?"
However, the moment Su Wanru saw Xu Yashi, the whole person seemed to be frozen in place. Immediately, Lin Sheng slowly walked to the door, and when he saw this scene, he also showed a look of extreme surprise.
Xu Yashi nodded slightly at them, and the gentle smile on her face showed the elegant temperament of the chairman's wife: "Lawyer Lin, Mrs. Lin, don't come harmed." β
Mrs. Xu...... You're ......"
On the side, Song Lingrui couldn't help but widen his eyes as he listened to the greetings between the two elders.
How so? Mother and Lin Jiayi's parents have known each other for a long time?!
"We're here today for this ......"
The couple stared at Lin Jiayi's ruby bracelet that was slowly taken out of Xu Yashi's bag, and the smile on their faces suddenly disappeared. "What I want to ask the two of you is, Lin Jiayi's life experience, who are her biological parents?"
Su Wanru grabbed the corner of Lin Sheng's clothes tightly and looked at her husband with worried eyes. Lin Jiayi's life experience, they have hidden it for so many years, in the end, are they still pulled out by such a bracelet?
However, Lin Sheng was unusually calm at the moment, brushed the folds on his clothes, and said with a smile: "As you expected, Jiayi is indeed not the biological daughter of me and Wanru, but we don't know who her parents are, this child is an abandoned son adopted by us in our hometown in the early years." β
Abandoned son? Scold......
"What about her brother Lin Shengyu?"
"The same is true." Lin Sheng paused and added, "Jiayi was injured in the head when she was brought back, and her childhood memories have long been lost, and for her parents, she only identified me and Wanru. β
Hearing this, the original confidence on Xu Yashi's face slowly faded a little, and she clenched the bracelet tightly in her hand, and the rose petals pierced her palms. "So, can you explain where this bracelet came from?"
"How do we know that the child has been wearing it since he came back from adoption?" Faced with this situation, Lin Sheng thought of a way to deal with it many years ago. Pretend to be confused! As long as she can do her best not to let Lin Jiayi know her life experience, she will not be allowed to take the initiative to explore the more painful memories.
At this time, Xu Yashi put away the bracelet and said slowly: "In this case, this bracelet is ironclad evidence to prove Lin Jiayi's life experience." She turned around and pointed at Song Lingrui, "Lin Jiayi, no, Miss Xia Qingming is the fiancΓ©e of our family Ling Rui, and we are here today to take her away." β
"No way!" Su Wanru, who had endured it for a long time, suddenly spoke up at this time, "Jiayi is our daughter, you can't take her away!" There should be such a bracelet with the same style, right? Can you determine Jiayi's identity based on this?! β
However, how did Su Wanru know that Lin Jiayi's bracelet is unique in the world......
"Akoya pearl embellishment, roses carefully carved with pigeon's blood rubies, Ms. Su, do you think there will be another such treasure?" Xu Yashi's questioning inadvertently stabbed the heaviest corner of Su Wanru's heart.
Unable to refute! Su Wanru's rhetorical question ended in failure, in fact, as a mother, she knows better than anyone how happy she is that her daughter can be happy, although Lin Jiayi is not her biological daughter, but she has always regarded her and Lin Shengyu as her own over the years.
is reluctant to let Xu Yashi take Lin Jiayi away, because the child's experience of two amnesia has made her brain unable to withstand more stimulation, in order to ensure Lin Jiayi's safety, she can only take her away from everyone and everything related to that year, and even the home where she has lived for eight years......
Secondly, it is also the most remembered by Su Wanru and Lin Sheng, what Lin Jiayi's mother once said to them.
"Sometimes, I wish that Ming'er was not born in the Xia family, she can choose her own life, choose the person she loves and marriage, instead of being used as a tool for family marriage......"
This is what Liu Qing said to Su Wanru in person back then.
Although the Song family and the Xia family made a marriage contract for Xia Qingming and Song Lingrui, they were only seven or eight years old at the time, how could they understand the love and love of adults?
A marriage without love, no matter how rich your life is, you will not be happy.
Liu Qing used his own personal experience to interpret the deep meaning of this sentence.
Back then, Old Man Xia also promoted her and Xia Yu together in the same way, and in the end, Xia Yu was unrequited in love with Liu Qing, tied her with money and status, and bound her with her children, so that she was forced to become a tool for the marriage of two wealthy families, a tool to please men, and a tool for inheritance......
In contrast, Su Wanru and Lin Sheng have gone through seventeen years of marriage hand in hand, although they are not as rich as the Xia family and the Song family, but they can be regarded as a well-off family in the real sense.
Paper can't contain the fire, in the face of the current situation, Lin Jiayi's life experience is obviously impossible to hide, and the Song family is very likely to find ways to take her away, so as to forcibly open her painful memories of the past......
For a while, the three of them were silent at the same time, Xu Yashi seemed to be thinking about something, and after a moment of silence, she said slowly: "Let's get here here today, we will find out Lin Jiayi's life experience slowly, please forgive me for any interruptions." β
Hearing this, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.
Could it be that it was really just hidden?
However, things are not as good as they thought.
In the elevator, Song Lingrui endured for a long time, and slowly raised his godless ink eyes: "Mom, you actually already know that Jiayi is Xia Qingming, right?" Then why didn't you ask them to take Jiayi away? β
Who knows, Xu Yashi turned her head gloomily: "Huh? Stinky boy, what's the urgency for you? The daughter-in-law is yours and can't run! Besides, who kept shouting before that he wouldn't marry Xia Qingming if he died?! β
