Chapter 135: Yu Wan’s Background
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Could Yu Wan be Yu Hong’s illegitimate child?
When she sensed Yu Lang and Yu Heng’s suspicions, Yu Yao felt that it was incomparably ridiculous. She looked at her two brothers in disbelief, then at Yu Hong. She saw that their expressions were much calmer than hers, as if they were discussing someone else’s private matters.
This made Yu Yao gradually lose confidence. She looked at Yu Hong with hesitation. “Dad, don’t tell me you…”
Yu Hong shook his head at Yu Yao and said, “Yaoyao, don’t think too much. Yu Wan is indeed not my biological daughter. I have never betrayed your mother.”
Yu Yao looked at Yu Lang and Yu Heng blankly. “Eldest Brother, Second Brother, why would you suspect the real relationship between Dad and Yu Wan?”
Yu Hong looked at his two sons, and his gaze turned deep. He said authoritatively, “This is also what I want to know. I feel that I have never done anything to let down my family. Why have I left such a bad impression on you?”
Yu Lang wasn’t intimidated by Yu Hong’s imposing manner. He looked a little apologetic, but he remained calm. “Dad, we don’t want to suspect you. We just want to make sure.”
Yu Hong frowned slightly. “What’s going on? Explain to me.”
Yu Lang took out a document and handed it to Yu Hong. “I’ve been investigating Yu Wan ever since a long time ago. I discovered that her true identity might not be that of an orphan who had been abandoned by her parents…”
In the book that she had read in her previous life, there was no detailed description of Yu Wan’s life before she was adopted by the Yu family. It only said that she had been taken away from an orphanage by Yu Hong. Hence, for the first time, Yu Yao knew that Yu Wan’s identity was not as simple as described in the book.
Yu Hong only read the first page before he frowned tightly. “The teacher who lives in the orphanage is her biological mother?”
Yu Yao was at a loss, so Yu Lang handed her another document. She looked through it carefully and realized why Yu Hong was so shocked.
On the surface, Yu Wan had been abandoned by her parents in the orphanage. After she was adopted by the orphanage, half a year later, the orphanage recruited a teacher who was very good at taking care of children. That teacher was Yu Wan’s biological mother…
Yu Hong’s expression turned colder and colder. “Back then, after Yaoyao went missing, your mother fired the nanny at home. After that, I went to the orphanage and wanted to adopt a child. I realized that the nanny had actually become a teacher at the orphanage. After asking around, I found out that when she was working at our house, her in-laws favored boys over girls and strangled her daughter to death. After that, she simply stayed in the orphanage and said that she wanted to take good care of these parentless children to gain good karma for her daughter who died early…”
“Her daughter isn’t dead. She even found a way to send her to our house.” Yu Heng revealed a mocking smile. After being glared at by his father, he suppressed his mockery. “Dad, you’ve always been smart. You didn’t expect to be deceived by a middle-aged woman who isn’t cultured, did you?”
Yu Yao couldn’t help but sigh. It turned out that Yu Wan’s style of not walking the right path was inherited from her parents’ bloodline.
However, she still had questions. “Even if we find Yu Wan’s biological mother, we can’t say that she’s Dad’s illegitimate daughter. Dad wouldn’t cheat on Mom with a nanny, right?”
Yu Lang explained, “After that nanny sent Yu Wan to the Yu family, she resigned and returned to the countryside. She must be worried that her relationship with Yu Wan would be exposed. However, after she returned to the countryside, she was no longer as cautious. When Yu Wan became a little older, she started to secretly transfer money to her. Hence, she would tell everyone that Yu Wan was the biological daughter of her and Dad.”
A layer of ice instantly covered Yu Hong’s face. Yu Yao originally wanted to laugh, but when she saw Yu Hong’s expression, she forcefully suppressed her laughter.
She looked at Yu Hong sympathetically and said, “Dad, you’re too unlucky to have been splashed with such a big basin of dirty water.”
