Chapter 3
As soon as she heard what her husband said, Qiao Yuechu realized that she had lost her composure.
She had behaved so unsightly in front of her long-lost daughter!
“Weiwei, listen to mommy. Mommy is normally more elegant than this. I do not usually act like what you just saw!”
“…”
Chi Wei hummed softly, but she did not express her thoughts.
Chi Yun, who was trying to remain calm and dignified, decided to change the topic.
He may not have cried and hugged his daughter as his wife did, but in reality, the excitement in his heart was no less than hers.
Chi Yun had a neat and tidy appearance since he had taken good care of himself. Even though he was in his forties, he still emitted a noble and stylish aura. He also had a bright smile.
“Weiwei, we thought about you every day throughout these years.”
“Fortunately, the heavens blessed us and we finally found you. Now, come home with us, okay? We promise that we will give you everything that money can buy and you’ll lead the best life ever…”
Chi Wei lifted her eyelids but still did not display much of a reaction.
Money? She was not too concerned about that.
However, when her gaze met Qiao Yuechu’s pleading eyes, Chi Wei slowly nodded her head.
…
Chi Wei was not interested in anything other than scientific research and food, so she did not own too many belongings.
After briefly packing up, Chi Wei bid farewell to the elderlies in the village. Then, she sat in her parents’ car.
Worried that Chi Wei might not be used to being alone, Qiao Yuechu sat next to her at the back of the car and explained everything about the Chi family to her in detail.
The Chi family lived in Rongcheng, which was very far away from the small village they were currently in.
Although Rongcheng was not comparable to the city’s capital, it was still considered one of the most prosperous areas. The Chi family was among the top two wealthiest families in Rongcheng.
Their family members consisted of an elderly lady, a well-behaved little cousin sister, and Chi Wei’s three brothers. Although, they barely ever returned home so it was as if they did not even exist.
After driving for a few hours, the car finally stopped in front of a luxurious European-style villa.
The sky was almost completely dark. Under the hazy night sky, the view of the small garden outside the villa was simply dazzling.
Meanwhile, inside the villa, it was brightly lit.
Qiao Yuechu got out of the car and saw her daughter looking around the place. She was about to shed tears again.
Her daughter, who had always lived in the countryside, must have never seen such a magnificent residence.
However, Qiao Yuechu quickly composed herself and held her daughter’s hand in a comforting manner.
“Grandma heard that you were coming back today, so she insisted on waiting for you at home. She looks rather fierce but don’t be afraid when you see her…”
Before Qiao Yuechu could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by someone with a sarcastic voice.
“You guys still know how to come back?”
“You’re just picking up a wild child from the countryside. Why did it take so long? Wanwan had been talking about wanting to have dinner with everyone when you guys were not around. She had waited all this while! In two days, Wanwan still had to participate in a competition. Do you know how much of her precious time that you had wasted?!”
Then, the door of the villa opened.
With just a glance, one could see an angry old lady sitting in the middle of the living room.
She had white hair and sharp eyes. Upon first impression, it seemed that she would be very difficult to get along with.
