Chapter 869 - My Daughter @Ling Sheng (2/2)

Grandma Lin took a closer look and shook her head. However, she still held her hand affectionately. “You should be Sheng Sheng’s mother-in-law. You’re really young and pretty. One look and I can tell that you’re a gentle and kind child. Our Sheng Sheng is a bitter child, but she’s sensible and obedient. You have to treat her well.”

Nangong Lengyu smiled and explained, “Auntie, I’m not her mother-in-law. I’m her mother, her biological mother.”

Grandma Lin gave her a shocked look. “You’re Sheng Sheng’s mother? Didn’t Sheng Sheng go to find her father?”

They all knew that Sheng Sheng was not Shuyuan’s biological daughter but had been adopted by her. When Shuyuan’s daughter was two years old, she had gotten into an accident with her man and passed away. Later, she had said that she had gone to seek refuge with her uncle. She had only left for half a year when she had returned with a child. That was Sheng Sheng.

However, not many people in town knew that Shuyuan was not Sheng Sheng’s biological mother. They all said that she had gone crazy after her daughter had died. She went out and done something unclean. She had gotten pregnant with a man and brought a girl back. Everyone thought she was her biological daughter.

That child Shuyuan had a good temper and was unwilling to get angry with others. She had never explained before and had treated Sheng Sheng as her biological daughter.

The woman in front of her was Sheng Sheng’s biological mother? She was very pretty and looked kind too. She should not have abandoned her biological daughter. She did not look like a heartless person.

She should not gossip about other people’s family matters. As long as she treated Sheng Sheng well, it would be the same regardless of whether she was her biological mother or foster mother.

“Yes, I found him.” Ling Sheng looked at the old man and smiled. “Grandma, I’ve found my parents. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely live well in the future.”

Grandma Lin felt a little emotional. Her eyes reddened as she held her hand and nodded repeatedly. “Okay, good. Sheng Sheng, it’s good that you’re fine. Your mother’s spirit in heaven should be at ease too.”

Ling Sheng said, “Grandma, they’re calling for you.”

Grandma Lin pulled on her hand, reluctant to leave. “Sheng Sheng, your family doesn’t have to cook tonight. Come to my house to eat. Grandma’s house is holding a banquet. Just treat it as a gathering.”

Ling Sheng definitely had to go. Grandma Lin still remembered it now, but she might not remember it at night again. She was like the grandma next door and the grandma in the Maldives. “Okay, Grandma. We’ll definitely go over tonight.”

When the people on the other side saw Ling Sheng and the others, the middle-aged man even smiled and nodded at Ling Sheng. He shouted, “Sheng Sheng, we’re going home. Come to Uncle’s house to eat tonight. Your family can come along.”

However, who was the man beside Sheng Sheng? Had she not seen him before? Was he her new boyfriend?

Ling Sheng nodded and thanked him with a smile. Actually, the hearts of the people in this small town were very pure. If they treated you well, they treated you well. If they looked down on you, they looked down on you. There was no hiding it.

On the other hand, the number of people who liked their family and treated them well could be counted on one hand. Grandma Lin’s whole family was quite nice. They did not look down on them just because her foster mother was a widow raising a daughter who had gotten pregnant before marriage. Instead, they often helped them. They were very kind.

Jun Shiyan had made a trip outside with Xiaoqi and had seen many people along the way. When they saw Xiaoqi, few people did not point at him. Their gazes were strange, and there were even half-grown children who stopped him and called him a wild child.

He could imagine what kind of treatment the mother and son received and how much disdain they would receive when they lived there.

However, he also saw that there were still people who treated them well. At least in this world, not everyone was completely indifferent or showed abnormal discrimination. There were still good people.

He was very grateful that when they were in trouble, someone would lend them a helping hand and pull them up.

The family walked toward the tombstone. Ling Sheng’s phone rang. It was Shi Lingyu. Her roar nearly deafened her. “Okay, Ling Sheng. If you don’t explain yourself clearly today, I won’t let you off. Huo Ci is your father! What’s going on?”

“Speak nicely. Who did you hear that from?” Ling Sheng was dumbfounded. What did she mean by Huo Ci was her father? How did she know? Who had leaked the secret? Could Fifth Uncle have told Sister Su Yi? And then Sister Su Yi told her?

Shi Lingyu vented her anger. How fantastic! Huo Ci was her father. Her Old Huo was Sheng Sheng’s father. Her Old Huo had a daughter and even a grandson!

As Little Cis, they had been worrying about him every day, urging him to get married. Why the h*ll did they urge him? He had silently given them such a big “surprise”! Countless sisters had already fainted from crying!

Not even in her dreams had Ling Sheng expected that on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, before the vacation had come to an end… After the scandal about #Ling Sheng and Huo Ci’s secret marriage and child# on New Year’s Eve, which was less than a week ago, she would reach the top of the hottest headlines.

The moment she saw Weibo, Ling Sheng felt that the world had gone crazy. Had her father gone crazy? Or had she gone crazy?

Huo Ci: Let me introduce you officially. My daughter @Ling Sheng.
