When Li Fang heard this, her eyes widened in disbelief. She looked and spoke weakly. She cried even more brazenly.
“We’ve been looking for the child for so many years because we don’t want Su Wan to be outside. We’re afraid that she’ll be harmed outside and we’ll have to look for her even if we have to go bankrupt. Do you know that although Su Li and I aren’t as rich as your Jing Family, we’re still a well-off family? We don’t have to worry about our livelihood. What can’t we buy? Do you think we’re snatching the child from you?”
Li Fang was crying so hard that it made one’s heart ache.
Su Wan’s heart tightened when she saw this. She actually empathized with Li Fang. She could understand their fatigue, helplessness, and impatience, but she really had no feelings for her biological parents.
Qin Lan knew that her words were a little harsh, but there was a reason for it. She nodded when she heard this and said thoughtfully, “You know that Su Wan has a good relationship with our Jing Family. We naturally don’t want Su Wan to leave with you two, even if you are Su Wan’s biological parents.”
As Qin Lan spoke, she said apologetically, “Although my words are a little harsh, I’m telling the truth, right? The child is already old. Even if she goes back with you, she won’t be able to live as well as she did in the Jing Family. You’ve been looking for Su Wan for so many years. Whether it’s true or not, we sincerely admire you, so we’ll give you a considerable sum of money. It’s enough for you to live the rest of your lives.”
“How’s that?”
As soon as Qin Lan finished speaking, Li Fang and Su Li fell silent. The expressions on their faces were not good.
No one wanted to be spoken about in that way.
And it was such a situation, even if Qin Lan was right.
When the child was young, they could still nurture their relationship. Now that Su Wan was so old, a relationship nurtured now will definitely not be as deep as one cultivated since young.
Besides, they couldn’t bring Su Wan anything but endless trouble.
This was the Jing Family’s intention. They gave them face, which was enough money and they didn’t let the reporters come.
Li Fang looked at Su Wan with a burning gaze, her eyes filled with sorrow. She asked patiently, “Su Wan, is this your idea? Do you think your father and I will become your burden? No, we don’t need your money or too much of your energy. We just need…”
Before she could finish speaking, Su Wan interrupted her and said even more embarrassedly, “Thank you for being willing to look for me. You’ve only given up on me in the legal sense after receiving the money, but I’ll still visit you often. We can slowly get along and get familiar with each other, okay?”
After all, they were her biological parents and she had been looking for them for so many years. It would be a lie to say that Su Wan’s heart was not moved at all. She still cared about them.
But these words still hurt Li Fang’s heart. She said with a trembling voice, “But child, we want you to be our family. Although it’s more than ten years late, there are so many years in a lifetime, feelings can still be nurtured, right?”
Su Li chimed in, “That’s right, child. We’re your parents. Your mother carried you for ten months before giving birth to you. How can you deny us just like that? We want to make it up to you too.”
With that, Su Li looked at the Jing Family and looked embarrassed. “Although you’re living well now and the family who adopted you treats you so well, you’re making us sad if you do this. You can’t even acknowledge your own daughter…”
Jing Chen frowned slightly. This was troublesome.
Su Wan understood this too. She lowered her head and was silent for a while before she suddenly said, “If we can really get along well, it’s not impossible for me to address you guys…”
Although she agreed, Su Wan still felt a little awkward.
She did not know how to face this unfamiliar and familiar parent.
However, her parents’ reaction still touched Su Wan.
