Chapter 91 - Begged On The Streets (2/2)
”Later, Jian Yu found an orphanage which could be our shelter,” Yu Mei said, recalling what she was told by her brother.
Mia nodded, ”He did find such a place. But those people told him that one of you could be adopted anytime and he did not like that. He wandered on the streets aimlessly while carrying you with him. Nobody paid attention to you both since you looked like beggars until he bumped into Shi Luo's mother who offered him some money,” The young girl looked at the woman sitting in front of her, as she replayed the memories from years ago in her mind, ''Han Jian Yu rejected it. He made a….”
”What?” Yu Mei frowned when Mia stopped talking, ”He made what?”
”Whatever that was which you made with Old Man Xiang. Put conditions and then…”
”You mean deal?”
Mia nodded, ”He made a deal with her and asked her to give you both shelter. In return, he will pay her back with a lot more than she gave which he did years later. But Shi Luo's mother was not a greedy person, she never took advantage of him neither did she take you in because of your brother's enticing offer.”
”And how'd you know that?”
”I had read her mind at that time. She is a soft-hearted woman and was sympathetic to you both. After taking you in, she loved you both like her own kids.”
Yu Mei remained silent. Of course, she knew all this but she was never informed about the details.
In fact, she also knew that Jian Yu lost his memories of the past but he had a jade bracelet with him which had 'Han' imprinted on it hence their names Han Jian Yu and Han Mei like he named her.
”Amidst all this, when and how did I contract you? I was just a baby at that time.”
”It was when you were still in Han Family,” Mia answered, a solemn expression appearing on her cute little face.
Yu Mei glanced at her with a raised eyebrow, ”You know about them? Tell me more.”
”No.”
”Why?”
A smile appeared on Mia's face, a typical vixen smile that can charm people of any age, ”Because you are impulsive. You will be inviting your own death if I give you the accounts of their heinous deeds. Wait for the right time.”
”But…”
”If you have nothing else, you can leave.”
This fox was only gentle and obedient when she was hungry. She was back to being a tyrant now.
”Hey, this is my room,” She sighed, ''Zixuan is inviting me to visit his mom. Can you revert back to a fox so that I can take you with me?”
”I've lost control over my powers for being contracted with a weak human for decades. For the time being, I will stay with like this. You can go. I'll be cultivating here.”
Yu Mei blankly glanced at the little girl. Weak human? Why is everyone trying to trample over her female ego lately?
