Chapter 604: Just Pretend There Is No Sister
When Su Mang came down, she saw her adoptive parents hunched over, looking listless.
She quickly shifted her gaze and placed the items on the coffee table with the maid. "Are these the ones? We've got them all."
After asking, he turned around, as if he had just realized something, and asked Su's mother in surprise: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
"No... I haven't slept well these past few days due to all the traveling. I've been staying up late, and my eyes are sore..."
Su Mang sat down, hugged her arms affectionately, and put her face on her shoulder and said coquettishly: "Then you should go to bed early tonight and sleep with me."
Gina, who was standing opposite, felt sad when she saw her daughter and someone else showing such affection as a mother and daughter. She looked a little envious and hurt.
Lin Yaozong glanced at him, the corners of his mouth raised, and wrinkles formed at the corners of his eyes. "I'm afraid that won't work. Your adoptive parents are busy, so they have to go back today. It won't be too late to come over and have fun with you next time."
"What's the rush? Are they leaving right after they arrived?" Su Mang asked in surprise.
Lin Yaozong paused and said, "Regarding the dissolution of your adoption relationship, some procedures must be handled locally."
Su Mang looked deeply shocked when she heard this, and stared blankly at Su Youmin and his wife with wide eyes.
The couple had a lot of grievances. They were clearly forced to make a choice, and they were extremely sad and reluctant in their hearts, but they had to push their daughter away.
"Tiantian, listen to mom..." As soon as Su's mother opened her mouth, tears began to fall, gathering on her knees and turning into a shadow the size of a coin.
Lin Yaozong pulled his wife to her feet, and Hena and Old Malin followed suit. The four of them quietly left the area, leaving room for the three to talk.
On both sides of the villa, the hearts of two families were in torment.
Even though she was dozens of meters away, Gina could still hear the crying of Su's mother.
She clutched her clothes in frustration. The more sadly Su's mother cried, the more scared she became.
"What if Su Mang doesn't want to? She's already so old, she must have a deep bond with them. What if she doesn't want to live with us?"
Lin Yaozong held her hand and said, "It's useless if Su Mang doesn't want to. As long as those two are willing to let go, it'll be fine."
Half an hour passed, and just when Gina was waiting anxiously, the housekeeper came over to report that it was almost done.
The four of them moved over.
Seeing that her daughter's eyes were red but she didn't say anything, Gina breathed a sigh of relief, and then she felt a little guilty.
She enthusiastically introduced the gifts piled up on the table: "These are all prepared for you. I don't know what you like-"
"This is a gauze silk scarf, a Patrimoni ladies' watch, and a coat... This is for Mr. Su, and a box of Montecristo cigars. I wonder if you're comfortable with them..."
Gina introduced them attentively, but Su Youmin and his wife looked uninterested the whole time, and their forced responses looked more like wry smiles.
I don’t know how I managed to get through the tasteless lunch, or how I walked out of the luxurious “temple”.
When the couple reacted, they were already standing inside the interstellar spaceship station again.
Next to them were still the two large suitcase bags, which had never been opened since they were packed. They lay there, as if mocking the two people's "unnecessary effort".
The driver took down the last two suitcases, which contained gifts from the Marin family, and then ordered the car's smart assistant: "Turn on automatic driving and go home."
"you……?"
"I'll take you two back and handle some formalities on behalf of the young lady."
After three days and two nights of travel, the two returned by the same route. The driver temporarily settled in the city, waiting for Su Youmin and his wife to meet him at the office tomorrow with the materials.
Su Guangliang was very surprised to see them when he returned home after dinner.
"Mom? Didn't you go to see my sister? Why are you back so soon?"
"How is my sister? Say something." Seeing his parents' hesitant expressions, he was suddenly stunned.
"My sister wouldn't..."
"Silly boy! What are you talking about! Your sister is alive and well. She is fine now. She can run and jump. She is very healthy." Mother Su patted her son on the back.
Su Guangliang breathed a sigh of relief: "You scared me. Why did you react like that? I thought my sister was gone."
After saying this, he noticed two brand new large suitcases in the living room and asked curiously, "Whose are these? What's in them?"
"I don't know, open it and take a look." Su's mother said tiredly.
Su Guangliang thought that these were local specialties and souvenirs that his parents had bought during their trip to the Capital Star, so he opened it excitedly.
It was packed so full that even the simple packaging looked expensive. There were a few logos that even he could recognize.
"Dad, Mom, have you guys made a fortune...? This brand of bag seems super expensive!"
Su Guangliang sighed repeatedly, and then saw an envelope fall out of the box. He exclaimed, opened the envelope, took out the contents, looked at them for a few seconds, and then reached out to his parents blankly.
"Dad, Mom, here's a bank card with the password written on it..."
The couple was stunned for a moment, then quickly took it and looked at it carefully together.
There was nothing special about the bank card. It was from one of the five major banks in the empire, and the six-digit password was written in black pen on the white paper cover.
The two looked at each other and knew what was going on.
Su Youmin asked his son for the envelope and put the card back in his pocket: "We can't take it. We have to return it to the owner."
"Let me ask if I put it in the wrong place." Su's mother was looking through the contact list of Xingxun.
The younger son was confused.
"Mom and Dad, what are you talking about? Who are you giving it back to? Didn't you buy these things?"
"Why are you acting so weird after you came back? What happened?" Su Guangliang asked with a frown.
The two of them were silent for a while, then pulled their son to sit down. After a long sigh, they said, "Liangliang, listen to what Mom has to say..."
Five minutes later, Su Guangliang looked deeply shocked and sat on the ground muttering, "Why is this happening..."
Su's mother suppressed her grief, sternly pressed his shoulders and warned, "Your sister has her good life to live. If she misses us, she will come back to visit us. But you can't take the initiative to look for your sister. Do you understand?"
"why?"
"You're stupid! Your sister's biological parents are so rich, what will others think if we take the initiative to stick to them?"
"What if my sister doesn't come back?" Su Guangliang asked blankly.
The couple was silent for a long time. After a while, Su Youmin said quietly, "If you don't come back, just pretend you don't have this sister."
"..."
"Also, don't tell outsiders so much. If someone asks, just say your sister is busy with schoolwork. After a few years, just say she joined the army. If they ask anything else, just say you don't know."
