Chapter 1249: The grudge in Lin Yi’s heart
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“She never left me?”
Shen Shuyi nodded. “You were born soon after the two of them left Yanjing. However, in that chaotic era, your father didn’t have the ability to protect you. Your mother was no different. After careful consideration, she sent you to the orphanage.”
Lin Yi didn’t say anything and listened quietly.
“But your father didn’t let anyone down. In just two or three years, he established himself outside and his life stabilized. However, the place they were staying couldn’t offer you a good education, so he didn’t take you in.”
“1 don’t think she ever came to the orphanage to look for me.”
“She had long thought about this, but she didn’t dare to.” Shen Shuyi sighed and said.
“After sending you away, the next time she saw you was three years later. At that time, you could already run around the orphanage and called that woman called Wang Cuiping ‘Mom’ and that man called Zhao Quanfu ‘Dad’. From then on, she knew that she no longer had the right to be your mother.
“But blood is still thicker than water. Ultimately, she could never bear to part with you.”
“So for the first 20 years, she spent most of her time in Yangcheng. When she had nothing to do, she would check in on you. When she was bored, she would visit your father and accompany him. After you went to university, you left for Zhonghai. You can say that throughout all these years, you have never left her sight. She saw and remembered everything you liked, your habits, and everything else, so she knows you well.”
Lin Yi smiled bitterly, feeling a little upset.
“Seriously, was it that difficult for her to meet me? I’m not an unreasonable person. I can understand.”
“But you’re you and she’s her. You think differently.”
Shen Shuyi smiled and said,
“If it were me, 1 would definitely go to the orphanage to look for you again. 1 wouldn’t have overthought it, but she couldn’t do it. She’s the gentlest person I’ve ever met. She gave everything she had to you, her son. Wherever you went, she would follow. Even though she’s your biological mother, she doesn’t dare to hope that you will recognize her.”
“But the heavens were still kind to her. Such an amazing coincidence occurred. Otherwise, you might not have ever met.”
“So we let nature take its course.” Lin Yi took a deep breath. “It all worked out in the end.”
“Indeed, the older generation said that one’s fate is predestined. Since it’s already arranged, we have to learn to accept both good and bad.” Shen Shuyi looked at Lin Yi.
“Even though she didn’t nurture you, I still feel that she’s a great mother.”
“I understand.”
Shen Shuyi smiled knowingly. “Since you can understand these principles, I won’t say any more. Life has to go on. The person who started it has to be the one to undo it. I’ve been handling the two of you for so long. It’s time for me to retire now that I’ve succeeded.”
“Thank you, Aunt Shen.”
“Silly boy,” Shen Shuyi said with a smile, but she knew that Lin Yi still held a grudge in his heart.
It was not because of Qin Yingyue, but because of his father whom he had never met before.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have avoided mentioning him throughout this conversation.
Ring ring ring!
At this moment, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a call from Jiang Qing.
“Brother Lin, the trial has already begun. Where are you?”
“I’m sending someone to the airport. 1 just finished work and I’m rushing back now.”
“Come over quickly. The people who came this time are quite good. Come over quickly and see if there’s anyone suitable to join your team.”
“Let Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che choose first. We’re all on the same side. There’s no need for any special treatment.”
“In any case, you should get involved in this too. Boss Liu is still waiting for you.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll come over now.”
With that, Lin Yi hung up and walked to the parking lot with Shen Shuyi.
“Did the Central Guards Brigade call you?”
Lin Yi nodded. “Today is the first day of the trial. They want me to go over and take a look.”
“Then you don’t have to send me off. Hurry up and go do your work.”
“It’s fine. Let me take you to the office.”
Shen Shuyi didn’t stand on ceremony with Lin Yi anymore and prepared to get into the car and leave.
However, at this moment, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan stopped in front of them.
Lin Yi glanced at the car. He knew it was Qin Yanling’s.
The two of them stood rooted to the ground without moving. They knew that the Qin family had arrived.
The car door opened. Other than Qin Yanfu and Qin Yanling, there was also a man in the middle who got out of the car.
The middle-aged man was dressed very formally. He was wearing a blue suit, white shirt, and black leather shoes. He looked like he was attending an important event.
Shen Shuyi’s gaze fell on him and she recognized who he was.
The eldest son of the second generation of the Qin family, Qin Yinglong!
He was also Lin Yi’s biological uncle!
However, they still had no clue about the relationship between Lin Yi and Qin Yingyue.
Because of what happened last night, the Qin family guessed that Qin Yingyue might try to leave Yanjing quickly, so they rushed over.
Instead, they only found Shen Shuyi and Lin Yi here.
They guessed that they might be too late.
“Has Qin Yingyue left?” Qin Yinglong asked.
“She’s already gone.”
“Shen Shuyi, what do you mean by this? You know what happened between her and us. There’s no need for the Liang family to intervene. You’re going too far!” “Brother Qin, don’t insult me. We’ve been friends for so many years. Am 1 not allowed to welcome her to Yanjing?”
“Of course it’s not too much, but why did you stop them?!”
“I’m not the one who stopped them. It was Lin Yi. Besides, I’m a woman. 1 don’t have the ability to stop them.”
Qin Yinglong’s gaze landed on Lin Yi.
“You’ve gone against our Qin family time and time again. Do you think we can’t do anything to you because you have Elder Lu’s protection?!”
“I don’t know why you’re looking for her, but i hope to stop this here. It won’t do you any good,” Lin Yi said in a low voice.
Qin Yinglong raised his eyebrows. There was anger written on his face.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you interfere in our Qin family’s matters?”
“If your Qin family is really all that, why do you tip-toe around Aunt Shen and myself? Why don’t you just attack us? When I show you that your skills are inferior to ours, you point at us and spout nonsense. What’s the point of all that?”
The corners of Lin Yi’s mouth curled up into a teasing smile.
“It’s quite embarrassing for the fallen officials and the last emperor to continue in this way forever.”
Lin Yi pointed at Qin Yanling and Qin Yanfu. “Train them more when you have the time. No matter what, you have to rely on your strength to back up your words. There’s no point in just talking big..”
