“Seven years ago, if I’m not mistaken. It was the same time when Ye Bowen was involved in a motor vehicle accident which left him disabled in both legs. She might never be allowed into Ye Residence if not for this reason…” Qin Yutong naturally went ahead to learn more about the Ye family since discovering the marriage between Chu Wuyou and Ye Lanchen.
Qin Yutong paused in her speech abruptly as she suddenly understood the hidden meaning behind Chu Wuyou’s words.
Unquestionably, the Ye family would not leave their flesh and blood stranded outside their inner circle but the same might not happen to the woman they did not approve of.
Even if she was the mother of the child.
The mother of that child might never be allowed into the Ye family if not because of the accident from seven years ago that left Ye Bowen crippled.
“Wuyou, maybe you’re thinking too much into this? It’s different in your case because you both are already married and you’re his legal wife.” It was evident that Qin Yutong acknowledged her friend’s concern but in her opinion, those two matters could not be mentioned in the same breath.
“What can one certificate guarantee?” Chu Wuyou shook her head slightly from side to side. In fact, the marriage certificate did not hold much significance. Besides, both Chu Wuyou and Ye Lanchen signed a prenuptial agreement; their marriage was but a hoax.
“You probably don’t know about this, but that boy had never met his birth mother in the first thirteen years of life, not until when she was accepted to the family seven years ago.” Chu Wuyou narrowed her cold gaze at the thought of that. It was exactly this that struck a chill into her heart.
The Ye family tore the mother and child apart forcefully for thirteen years to ensure they did not see each other during that time. The Ye family must be really cruel and heartless to be able to do so!!
“No way. Are they stony-hearted?” Qin Yutong could not resist suppressing a large gasp when she heard of the unbelievable news.
“A rich and affluent family only values their own interests. Love is a rare thing.” Chu Wuyou laughed coldly internally. Talks about money hurt people’s feelings but it was the other way round for people with abundant wealth.
Of course, she knew without a doubt that her grandpa truly loved her. She did not deny completely that affluent people cared about this little thing called sentiment but it was definitely uncommon.
Both of these women grasped hold of the same fact at that moment.
If Ye Lanchen was truly that man from five years ago, there was no doubt the Ye family would bring those two darlings into their home the minute they learned about the truth.
However, they might not welcome Chu Wuyou with the same enthusiasm. If the Ye family refused to accept her then she might not be able to see her darlings again for the rest of her life.
Chu Wuyou could not allow that to happen, neither would Qin Yutong.
There was no chance Qin Yutong could not bring herself to persuade Chu Wuyou to gamble with the two darlings.
“What’s your plan?” Qin Yutong enquired after a moment of silence. The hint of excitement from earlier had completely disappeared.
“I need an affirmative answer for one thing.” Chu Wuyou’s voice was laced with seriousness as well as determination. Her main priority right now was to guarantee Ye Lanchen was the man from five years ago.
After ending the call with Qin Yutong, Chu Wuyou made another phone call after moments of consideration. “Senior, I need a favor from you.”
“Go on.” The husky voice that came from the other end of the phone was always soothing to the ears.
“I need you to find out the identity of Zhimo’s birth father.” Chu Wuyou heaved a heavy sigh and finally expressed her decision.
She could not afford to make any excuse to neglect the matters involving her two darlings.
“Are you sure about this?” The man said after a long silence.
