Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Li Dai Tao Jiang Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Li Dai Tao Jiang Meng Wanhua had given it serious thought.
In this situation, not only was she extremely disappointed in Lin Fangwei’s character, even if Lin Fangwei were kind and lovely, she wouldn’t want to hurt Meng Chuyue again.
She had specifically brought Meng Jingfen to Hai City this time, intentionally having her call herself “Mom,” hoping to execute a “substitution scheme.”
Of course, she hadn’t intended to harm Meng Jingfen.
Meng Jingfen’s blood type was A, Lin Fangwei’s was O.
There was no need to match, a simple blood test would make Lin Youdong and Zhao Sulan give up the idea and forgive them.
And since the Lin family was so wealthy, as long as they were willing to pay, finding a suitable kidney source wouldn’t be difficult.
Meng Wanhua looked at the kind and innocent Meng Chuyue and thought to herself, “I have already been very selfish.”
Revealing the secret of the children’s origins now, a wonderful girl like Meng Chuyue could definitely receive Han Zheng’s utmost affection.
But then Lin Youdong and Zhao Sulan wouldn’t wholeheartedly treat her Fangwei’s illness…
Her continuing to conceal the truth was already harming Meng Chuyue, and she couldn’t possibly let her a kidney to Lin Fangwei—though Meng Chuyue and Lin Fangwei weren’t blood relatives, their blood types matched, making the success of a matching very likely.
She looked at Meng Chuyue’s gentle smile, “I’m fine now, Chuyue.
You should hurry over to Aunt Qin’s place to work.
I have Jingfen here with me.
Besides, your grandmother and others will be here soon.
Avoiding them could lessen a lot of trouble.”
Meng Chuyue shook her head with a smile, “As long as mom doesn’t force me to marry, grandma can’t do much to me.
Mom, if I hadn’t seen you faint with my own eyes, I would have listened to you, but how can I leave you heartlessly now, seeing you ?
I’ve already decided, I’ll at least stay at home and look after you for ten days before going to work.
During these ten days, I’ll make delicious meals for you every day.”
She had no arguments to counteract what she said, what should she do?
She thought for a moment, “Is your workplace far from our home?”
“Not far, just over one stop.”
Meng Wanhua was quite surprised, “… really that close?”
“Yes, Aunt Qin’s family owns many shops.
Knowing we live here, she specifically chose this fruit shop for me, um, and even said she wants me to be the manager.”
Being a manager was good, as a manager would be busy.
With less time at home, she wouldn’t have to worry about Chuyue encountering Lin Youdong and Zhao Sulan.
She asked, “What time do you start work, and what time do you finish?
Do you have a break at noon?”
Isn’t my own shop under my own control?
However, she knew Meng Wanhua wanted her not to appear in Phoenix District during the day, so she replied, “I start work at six in the morning, there’s no break at noon, and I finish at eight in the evening.”
“Okay, then from now on you’ll stay at home, and at night you can make me some extra delicious food.”
Meng Chuyue’s cooking was exceptionally tasty.
Meng Wanhua’s appetite hadn’t been great to begin with, and knowing she was sick, it had gotten even worse.
However, whenever Meng Chuyue cooked, she could eat a lot, and every time she did, her stomach felt fine and her spirits were good.
Her collapse today was because she had been overly worried these past few days: Lin Fangwei’s illness had truly terrified her.
“Okay, I’ll make soup for you every evening.
We have a refrigerator at home, so we can store some for you to have the next morning and at noon.”
“Okay, but you should still avoid this afternoon.
Let me discuss things with your grandma.”
“… Does Jingfen know about my illness?”
“She probably doesn’t know.”
“… Your grandma and the others don’t know either, please keep it a secret from them for now, otherwise it won’t be easy for us to have peace.”
Her maternal family would surely rush to calculate her assets; such cases were not rare.
And that time she had gone to see Lin Fangwei, she was actually carrying a mother’s bias for her biological daughter.
She wanted to leave the house and noodle shop to Meng Chuyue, and quietly give Lin Fangwei over a hundred thousand in cash and some jewelry.
But Lin Fangwei had chilled her heart, and now she didn’t want to give her anything.
