Chapter 79: Mistakenly Held Rich Heiress 078 (2)
An Toutou had already taken the passenger seat and, upon hearing Pei Xu, she looked in the direction of his gaze and immediately saw Ye Shaohua.
In fact, An Toutou had already seen Ye Shaohua at the previous competition and naturally recognized her.
“She’s from Third Middle School, so what?” An Toutou was somewhat on guard inside, but she still spoke in a mild manner. When she mentioned “Third Middle School,” her tone was very faint.
Third Middle is the most awkward school in the area. Families with even a slight bit of assets would not send their children to this school.
The academically strong would stay at First Middle School, while those who were a bit weaker would go straight to Noble School. Both types of schools boasted the best teaching staff in Imperial City.
Third Middle was mostly populated by children of migrant workers and the salaried class, and their grades were not particularly impressive. Students like Xu Chenghao with good grades were anomalies.
“Don’t you think she looks a lot like Aunt and Uncle?” Hearing that she was from Third Middle, Pei Xu withdrew his gaze but still made a mention.
The An Family had been wealthy for several generations, so it seemed unlikely for there to be a relative at Third Middle.
When An Toutou heard this, she laughed, “There are many people in the world who look alike.”
Neither of them paid much attention to this episode.
Meanwhile, Ye Shaohua had also returned home. They lived in an old community. Ye Guoliang was an associate doctor, and Lin Meizhi was a nurse. The couple had saved some money over the past twenty years, but it was still hard to afford a house in that area.
This old house was purchased years ago, and they definitely could not afford it now if they were to buy.
A murder had occurred downstairs before, which also drove down the property prices significantly in the area. Ye Guoliang was planning to move, but it was difficult to sell the house. There were not many people willing to buy second-hand homes these days, and the only option was to rent it out.
This, however, meant they didn’t have much liquidity on hand.
When Ye Shaohua arrived home, both her parents were there.
“Back?” Ye Guoliang glanced at Ye Shaohua and asked simply. He didn’t ask where she had been or why she had returned so late.
Ye Shaohua, thinking of the original person’s tendency to be reticent, didn’t say a word and went straight to her room.
This was the original Shaohua’s normal interaction with her parents.
Ye Shaohua even doubted whether they knew that her college entrance examination results were about to be released.
After Ye Shaohua closed her door, Lin Meizhi finally spoke, “How’s the search for the hospital records going?”
“Can’t find them,” Ye Guoqing sighed, “we don’t know where our biological daughter is or what she’s been through all these years.”
“If she’s not our own, she’s not our own,” Lin Meizhi said, looking at Ye Shaohua’s tightly shut door, “No matter how much you raise them, they never become familiar.” ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
When Lin Meizhi gave birth to Ye Shaohua, it was during her career peak, yet she was held back by Ye Shaohua. But Ye Guoliang couldn’t afford to be delayed; he was still busy at the hospital every day.
Lin Meizhi was left to care for Ye Shaohua by herself, and the elder family members only visited for a few days before returning to the countryside.
Therefore, Lin Meizhi felt nothing but resentment towards Shaohua’s birth. Both parents being medical staff at the hospital often had to work overtime, barely finding time for Ye Shaohua, which led to a very detached relationship.
Shaohua was sent to childcare by the age of three, and she had spoken more to her grandmother in B City than to her own parents.
When Ye Shaohua grew a little older, her kindergarten teachers mentioned that she seemed somewhat autistic. The couple regretted not spending enough time with their child as she grew up and began to accompany her more, which made Shaohua noticeably more cheerful for a time.
However, it wasn’t long before the couple discovered that she had a hereditary heart disease.
There was no history of such an illness in either the Ye or Lin families for several generations. Both parents, being in the medical field, could intuit a lot from this. Ye Guoqing and Lin Meizhi immediately performed a paternity test and found out that Shaohua was indeed not their biological child.
With the one-child policy in place by then, it was impossible for them to have another child.
