Chapter 764: Chapter 768: I’m Going to Explode
Ye Xingbei was still full of doubts: “How does that explain why Fang Siqi and Mi Junyuan would send Mi Junyuan’s son to the Fang Family? Is Fang Lutong an idiot? Has he ever wondered why someone would give away their perfectly healthy child to him? Because he is the child’s father, that’s why Mi Sheng and Mi Junyuan would have delivered the child to him, right?”
Gu Junzhu slightly raised a corner of her lips: “It should be that Senior Master Fang thought of a way to deceive Fang Lutong. For instance, saying that the Mi Family does not acknowledge a child born out of wedlock and asked Senior Master Fang to take care of Ah Yao temporarily. When Fang Siqi has a firm footing in the Mi Family, she could then take back Ah Yao. After all, Fang Siqi is Fang Haichuan’s adopted daughter. It’s reasonable and justified to leave her illegitimate child with her adoptive family temporarily.”
Gu Junzhu rubbed her temples, “I said before, it’s too easy for parents to deceive their own children. In the mind of a child, they believe their parents would never harm them. They trust whatever their parents tell them unconditionally. With Fang Haichuan’s craftiness and viciousness, tricking his own son is as simple as eating radishes and vegetables.”
“I think Fang Haichuan must have tricked Fang Lutong using some other method, right?” Ye Xingbei pondered: “Your previous conjecture does not stand up to scrutiny. If, as you said, Fang Siqi and Mi Junyuan simply left the child with the Fang Family for the time being, then why has this temporary fostering lasted so many years? Ah Yao suffered so many hardships in the Fang Family, but we never saw Fang Siqi and Mi Junyuan take the child back. Even if Fang Lutong is foolish, he does have a brain, doesn’t he? Doesn’t he find it strange?”
Junzhu chuckled, tapping a few times on her phone and pulling up another piece of information: “Look at this, very few people know that the Fang family pulled this stunt.”
Ye Xingbei read it carefully, “This says… the first child the Fang Family adopted died and they were very sad, so they decided to adopt another?”
Ye Xingbei looked at Gu Junzhu in confusion, “What does this mean?”
“It means that the Fang Family told Mi Junyuan that the son he had left with them had died. They were filled with grief, so they adopted another child as an emotional support,” Gu Junzhu laughed, “This is also the real reason why Ah Yao’s age in the household register is one year less than his actual age. Fang Lutong did everything he could to keep Ah Yao.”
Ye Xingbei had a sudden realization: “Fang Lutong used this trick, thinking that he had deceived Mi Junyuan. He thought Mi Junyuan really believed his son had died, so he wouldn’t come to reclaim his son. But in fact, Ah Yao is his son, and Mi Junyuan never intended to come find Ah Yao?”
Gu Junzhu nodded, “Yes, that’s my conjecture. But as I said before, I still need evidence.”
Ye Xingbei wiped his forehead, blushing with embarrassment: “What a mess this is! Both Fang Haichuan and Fang Lutong are mad, taking such a roundabout way. What is this all for?”
Gu Junzhu curved the corners of her lips: “Reality is like that, to cover up one lie, you need to tell a hundred more lies. One lie after another, and you might get caught someday.”
Ye Xingbei suddenly laid back on his pillow, staring straight at the ceiling and waving his hand: “I can’t handle it, I can’t handle it. It’s too much information, I’m going to explode. My mind is a mess.”
