Chapter 40: Wu Yifan

When he was six years old, his biological mother died, and Wu Yifan grew up in the United States with his father Wu Zhiguo. In 2001, Wu Zhiguo got along with a pianist, and he had a stepmother, Su Man. He was only 13 years old at the time, and he didn't know that this woman had been married once, and she had abandoned her husband and daughter in China.

It wasn't until two years ago that 25-year-old Wu Yifan came to Binhai for business, and one night he heard me singing at a Soho bar and became interested in me. That night he secretly praised me, but I was very arrogant and turned him away. He had no choice but to ask Brother Chao about my situation.

I wanted to chase me, but after learning that I was Mi Zhencai's daughter, he hesitated. It was only because this name was very familiar that after returning to the United States in a hurry and asking my father, I learned that my mother was Su Man, and he was my brother who was not related by blood.

"My parents, Mi Zhencai and Su Man, were college classmates. Back then, his father abandoned his first love for the future, and Su Man would marry Mi Zhencai. Wu Yifan sighed, "That's the way it is, there is always too much helplessness in life!" ”

"Then we are really not related by blood?" I opened my eyes wide and asked, "Your father, is he a foreigner?" ”

This question may seem silly, but it is not, because ......

Wu Yifan's appearance is similar to mine: the bridge of the nose is high, the eyes are large and deep, and he looks a little like a mixed race.

Because of the rumors that Su Man ran away with the "foreigner's husband", and my appearance is very different from Mi Zhencai, he has not been very kind to see me over the years.

So I had doubts before, could it be that I am the illegitimate daughter of Su Man and foreign foreigners?

For this reason, I once asked Mi Zhencai straight to the point, but he said no? also scolded me for not being filial, and even my father dared to question it......

Now that Wu Yifan said this, I am even more suspicious: Could it be that his father is a foreigner? Me and he are half-siblings?

Faced with this question, Wu Yifan stared at me for a long time, and finally lowered his eyes and shook his head lightly, and said heavily:

"My parents are both Chinese, and my father is Han; My mother is Uyghur, and her name is Ayiguli. ”

When he said the last sentence, his brows were furrowed, his face was very solemn, and his voice was a little choked.

It dawned on me that the mixed-race characteristics of his appearance were inherited from his Uyghur mother's genes.

But how to explain Misa's physical characteristics? Mi Zhencai and Su Man are both out-and-out Han people, and they do not have a high nose bridge and deep eyes.

To tell the truth, in addition to her delicate white skin and bewitching figure, I inherited the genes of Su Man, a Shanghai woman, and my other appearance characteristics are not very similar to her.

I know that it is very unkind to question my life experience for no reason, but Su Man's attitude of ignoring me since I was a child has to make me suspect that I picked it up.

Wu Yifan, who was hanging his eyes on the other side, continued to confide:

"I have been in the United States for the first few years, and my father took me back to Xinjiang four years ago to recover my mother's property. To tell you the truth, my grandfather's family is the richest man in the frontier, and my mother is the only daughter in the family. So ......"

He wanted to speak and stopped, his brows furrowed very tightly, as if he was struggling with something that was difficult to say?

I "understand in seconds"!

He wants to say that he is an invisible rich man, and this villa is a small case for him, and he wants to persuade me not to have too much psychological burden.

"Then why did you come to Marina again?" I asked at his fingertips, my mind not on the villa at all.

Wu Yifan breathed a sigh of relief, lit a cigarette, and joked again:

"Because of you!"

I was confused, pouted and muttered, "I...... I'm not your own sister. ”

"So I can still chase you, can I?"

"Don't, stop kidding!" My face was flushed, and my head was almost buried in my chest.

"Don't tease you, look at the scared you? Anyway, the relationship between the two of us is now clear, how to develop in the future, you look at it! He took a cigarette in his mouth and continued to laugh and tease me.

My mind was still in turmoil, and the natural familiarity he gave me made me feel like I was related to him. But he repeatedly joked that he was going to chase me, and he had no human form, which made me have to believe that the truth was what he said......

He was born to Wu Zhiguo and Ayiguli;

And I am indeed the flesh and blood of Su Man and Mi Zhencai;

Picking up the glass of water and taking a big sip to calm down, I straightened out my thoughts and asked bluntly:

"Covering me behind your back, it shouldn't be out of love between men and women, right?"

"......" He was silent, and his eyes were complicated, and I couldn't read them.

So my thinking had to think about it, and I asked sadly:

"Is it because I'm Su Man's daughter? Because she forsaken me and owed me? ”

In fact, I had already guessed that the house was Su Man's compensation for me, and tears welled up in my eyes.

Wu Yifan handed me a tissue, sighed and said heavily:

"Su Man has always loved my father, and I can't control the affairs of adults. But if you think others owe you, then it's all on my head! ”

It seems that I guessed correctly, he is good to me, all because of Su Man!

But Su Man abandoned me not because of him, this grievance can't be counted on his head Wu Yifan.

"No, you don't owe me!" I sighed and retracted my tears, and said sincerely, "On the contrary, I owe you." ”

"......" Wu Yifan didn't answer, and his red eyes were a little moist.

"Actually, you don't need to support me, let alone give me such a large fortune." I gradually calmed myself down, but the choking in my throat was still exposed.

Wu Yifan sighed and stared at me distressedly, "I can't talk about supporting you, everything is your own labor income." In the past two years in Soho, you have calculated every account with Han Chao very clearly, right? ”

I nodded, and it was exactly what he said. Except for accidentally breaking Han Chao's antique bowl, I calculated every other account very clearly with the boss, and I never took advantage of it, nor did I let myself suffer.

"So, you're not a girl who owes favors easily, especially from strangers. And I'm not here for you! I love the city by the sea, good for settling in. ”

Wu Yifan tried his best to liven up the atmosphere of the conversation, and wanted to drive away too many heavy things.

I understand his good intentions, but he doesn't know that I am a free and easy person.

After telling the "truth", I can understand why Su Man doesn't like me and keeps calling me a hillbilly. Because the person she loves is not Mi Zhencai at all, but Wu Yifan's father.

So at this moment, I have no hatred for Su Man.

"No matter what, Wu Yifan, thank you!"

"Family, no thanks!" He gazed at me affectionately, with the same sincerity.

So, I wiped away my tears and smiled at him and raised my glass.

He tacitly agreed, and with a gentle clinking of glasses, I gained a new friend, an unrelated "brother".

"As you said just now, I don't want to owe favors. So you still have to take back the house, I can't ask for it. "Eventually, I returned the transfer agreement to him.

"You deserve it!" He pushed it to me again, "And the person who bought this house for you is actually ...... Mom! ”

He said the last two words very heavily, but his voice was very soft, as if he was suppressing some kind of grief?

And, he said "Mom"!

Didn't say "your mother" or "my mother".

It's a pity that I didn't hear his secret, because I had a preconceived conjecture, I thought he was talking about Su Man, so I defended with a little indignation:

"Hmph, how can she have so much money as a piano player? Aren't they all your Wu family? ”

"Whoever it is, let it be...... Just take it as your mother's compensation for you, don't ...... Stop hating. Wu Yifan said, obviously choked, and lowered his head and didn't dare to face me.

"Compensation? Oh, can family affection be compensated with material? I smiled wryly and blurted out.

But after thinking about it, he didn't have any hatred for his biological mother Su Man at this time, so there was no point in continuing this topic with him.

The affairs of the previous generation should not involve our generation, the most important thing is not to let Wu Yifan feel that he owes me, and he can't let him do anything for me anymore. Otherwise, Mi Sa will not live a solid life!

So he added:

"Actually, you think too much, I don't hate my mother, and I won't blame her. Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness, and no matter what, she has been with me for nine years, and that is enough. ”

As soon as the words fell, Wu Yifan suddenly raised his head and stared at me, with a look of surprise.

I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, still with my eyes down, and continued:

"People live to be at ease, chic and relaxed. Instead of thinking about a person's badness, it is better to think more about her good. And Su Man is not a bad mother, except for the fact that she likes to call me a hillbilly, she is not bad. ”

I said, hurting to myself......

Only I know: Strictly speaking, Su Man is an incompetent mother.

Since I was a child, Su Man has never participated in a parent-teacher meeting or parent-child activity. She didn't even recognize the previous homeroom teachers when I was studying, let alone help me with my homework.

She was very cold to me and Mi Zhencai, and for nine years her world was a concert except for the piano, as if her husband and daughter did not exist......

If Su Man has only educated me, it is music!

She found out that I was born with a good voice, and when she was happy, she would teach me to play the piano and practice my voice. But as soon as I made her unhappy a little, she started taunting again, and then let me stay and cool off.

"Sasa, you're such a good girl!" He stared at me and exclaimed.

The affectionate eyes made me a little embarrassed, so I smiled and quipped:

"That's right, I'm a good girl! Therefore thou shalt fulfill me, and take back the house. Otherwise, I won't be able to live steadily, understand? ”

He was silent for a moment, not insisting.

After that, we had lunch together, and it was very warm to talk and laugh.

Wu Yifan told me a lot of interesting stories about his youth, once upon a time in the United States, he lived in a slum with his father, although his life was hard, but he was very happy, because the relationship between father and son was very good.

I was a little puzzled when I heard it, wasn't his grandfather's family the richest man in the frontier? How do you still live in a slum in the United States?

"Mom eloped overseas with Dad!" Wu Yifan explained, "In the early years, my grandfather had a deep misunderstanding of my father, and it was not until I became an adult that they let go of their grievances and transferred all the family business that my mother should inherit to my name. ”

It seems that it is another bloody family ethics drama, the love of life and death!

I didn't ask any more, I just guessed that his father must be a charismatic man, who could make the richest daughter in the frontier elope, and let Su Man, who had the title of "Goddess School Flower" when he was young, love him for so many years.

ignored that there was a fatal loophole in Wu Yifan's words......
