377 Picked Up
Seeing this, Wen Le slapped the Taoist priest’s head and warned him fiercely, “Shut up, or I’ll send you down first!”
The Taoist priest knew that Wen Le would not dare to kill him, but he really dared to hit him. Wen Le had been to the tomb all year round, so his physical strength was not ordinary. This slap had directly stunned him. The Taoist priest did not dare to continue speaking, and he only stared at Xiao Feng as a warning.
Wen Le saw that the Taoist still dared to threaten people and gave him another slap. This time, the Taoist saw stars in front of his eyes. He quickly lowered his head and didn’t dare to do anything.
“Continue, he’s been beaten silly by me,” Wen Le consoled Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng, “…”
It seemed that the most important thing now was to keep his life. Why did he feel that these customers in front of him were more like criminals than him?
“Boss learned from the Taoist that there is a way to suck other people’s luck to change one’s own luck. Because business is not good, Boss forced us to do this kind of thing. I don’t know who to choose, but I can’t not choose, because if I don’t choose, I’ll be beaten.”
Xiao Feng lifted his shirt and wanted to show Su Meng his injuries.
In the end, when he picked it up, there was a patch of blue and purple on it. This was a result of Wei Ting’s beating. It looked ghastly, and the old injury could not be seen at all.
When Xiao Feng saw this, he silently put the clothes down.
Su Meng, “…”
Why did she feel that Xiao Feng was a little pitiful now? ‘No, I can’t have sympathy for people who hurt people.’ Su Meng took a deep breath and continued listening to Xiao Feng.
“Boss wanted all of us to follow the Taoist priest’s method to absorb other people’s luck. I didn’t know who to look for, so in the end, I could only choose my sister. She’s not my biological sister anyway, and there’s no relationship between us.”
Everyone present, including the old lady, was shocked by his words.
Was Xiao Yu not the old lady’s biological daughter? Why would that old lady treat her like this, even more nervously than Xiao Feng?
“She’s not your biological sister?” Su Meng was surprised as well. Although she could read the child’s fortune, she could not tell if the child was her biological child with her eyes. The old lady’s attitude toward Xiao Yu did not seem like they were not blood-related at all.
Seeing that everyone was so surprised, Xiao Feng laughed at himself.
“Xiao Feng, you… So you already know?” the old lady asked Xiao Feng with a trembling voice.
Xiao Feng nodded, “Of course, I’ve known since I was a child. There was a time when you and my dad quarreled about my sister’s future. I heard everything.”
When the old lady heard this, she fell silent.
Su Meng guessed what had happened and roughly understood what had happened.
“Because your mother loves Xiao Yu more than you, you hate her and set your eyes on her?” she asked for Xiao Feng.
When she thought of the old lady’s golden life providence, she suddenly understood the reason.
She turned to the old lady and asked, “Grandma, so you’re saying that Xiao Yu was adopted by you, and you even ignored your own son in order to raise her, right?”
The old lady nodded and sighed without saying anything.
Su Meng continued to ask, “I’ve observed your fate. You’ve been living a carefree life and you’re even showing signs of becoming rich. You’re completely capable of raising both children at the same time, but why did you ignore one of them?”
Many adoptive parents loved their adopted children more than their own. Su Meng knew that she had no right to judge how others treated their children. But she was just curious, because it was indeed easy for a child to have psychological problems due to parents’ favoritism.
“Ai, what a sin.” The old lady sighed. “Before I gave birth to Xiao Feng, I didn’t show any signs of pregnancy. The old man really wanted a child. Later, he saw that I was worried and didn’t have the heart to tell me. He just often looked at other people’s children in a daze.”
“I know he’s afraid I’ll overthink it. Although he didn’t say it, I can tell. We tried everything we could, but it didn’t work. So, the old man and I thought that it wouldn’t be bad to live a carefree life with just the two of us. So, we stopped insisting on having children and started traveling with just the two of us.”
“On our trip, we picked up a baby. She looked like he was only two or three months old. For some reason, her parents abandoned her.”
“It was because we wanted a child at that time, but we couldn’t give birth to one, so we decided to adopt this child. It was only after she was adopted that she found out why the child had been abandoned. It was because she was seriously ill. Fortunately, the old man and I were not short of money, so we spent a lot of money to cure the child.”
