I listened to my sister's words today.
Chapter 42 The Mysterious Couple
Yun Yiruo also listened to Jiang Ling and picked out two cakes that looked colorful, exquisite and delicious.
She took a small bite and the sweet taste instantly made her smile with satisfaction. Then she took two more crispy cookies and sat on a small chair nearby, slowly enjoying this little moment of happiness.
Just as she was immersed in the delicious food, a kind aunt came over and asked gently, "Little friend, what are you eating?
Yun Yiruo raised her head and blinked her eyes as she replied, "Biscuits, do you want some?"
As she spoke, she handed a biscuit in her hand to her aunt, and the action seemed simple and natural.
After taking the biscuits, the auntie smiled and asked, "Little boy, what's your name?
"Yun Yiruo said seriously: "Auntie, my name is Yun Yiruo, what's yours?" She sat on the chair, shaking her little feet, looking extremely innocent.
Hearing this name, Luo Yuxi felt dazed and her heart was shocked.
Isn't this the name of her own child? She felt a little familiar with it, maybe it was just a coincidence.
So, she smiled and responded: "My name is Luo Yuxi, Yun Yiruo is such a nice name!"
"Yeah, thank you Aunt Luo!" Yun Yiru nodded happily, but her eyes involuntarily glanced at the serious-looking uncle beside her, and then she selectively ignored him. The uncle stood there in a daze, pouting helplessly.
"Auntie, this cake is for you."
At this moment, Luo Yuxi and her husband who were present witnessed an incredible scene: Yun Yiruo was wearing an exquisite and unique bracelet that exuded an ancient atmosphere on her delicate little wrist. It was a treasure passed down from generation to generation in the Yun family!
Luo Yuxi took the cake with trembling hands, her voice choked with sobs, "Thank... Thank you."
Yun Yiruo looked at the strange couple in confusion, especially the serious uncle next to them. She thought to herself: Are they going to do something to me?
"Calm down," the husband whispered soothingly, pulling his wife into a hug. "Nothing's confirmed yet." He then squatted down and gently asked Yun Yiru, "Little boy, my name is Yun Lingxuan. You can call me Uncle Yun. Can I ask about your parents?"
"Uh...Oh, sure! Hello, Uncle Yun!" Yun Yiruo replied in a childish, clear voice, "I don't have any parents. I grew up in an orphanage."
"So how old are you this year?" he continued to ask, hoping to know more about the little girl.
"I just turned 19, what's wrong?" Yun Yiruo answered seriously. At this time, the couple could not help but be shocked.
After hearing this age, Luo Yuxi's eyes instantly turned red. She was filled with a strong sense of unease and confirmation - this was her long-lost child! However, when she saw the disgusted expression on Yun Yiru's face, she couldn't help but grab her husband's hand and forcefully signaled him not to ask any more questions.
"Little boy, there are so many delicious foods, why do you only eat so little? Auntie will get you some more, okay?" Luo Yuxi said with concern, hoping to let this lovely child enjoy more food.
"No, thank you, Aunt Yun." Yun Yiruo shook her head. "My sister doesn't let me eat too much."
"Sister? Do you have a sister?" Luo Yuxi was surprised by this information and tried again to dig out more stories behind the child.
"Yes, he came in with me." Yun Yiruo nodded confidently, seemingly without any scruples, but this made the adults around her even more nervous.
"Are you talking about President Jiang?" Luo Yuxi and her husband looked at each other. They never expected that they would mention that dreaded figure - Jiang Ling!
"Yes, if I eat too much, my sister will beat me, and it will hurt." Yun Yiruo said, rubbing her head unconsciously. Her innocent and pitiful little expression made everyone feel distressed.
Seeing this scene, Luo Yuxi's heart was suddenly broken. Although she knew that Jiang Ling was a tough guy in the industry, she didn't expect that he would impose such strict and cruel discipline on such a lovely child.
She began to worry, if this continued, would Jiang Ling's tough measures really hurt innocent children?
At the same time, Yun Lingxuan, who was standing nearby and equally heartbroken, gently stroked Yun Yiru's little head. He hoped to give the child a little warmth and a sense of security, to let her know that she was not alone.
However, at this moment, one of their bodyguards hurried forward:
"Hello, both of you. Please stay away from my lady." The bodyguard's words exuded a sense of majesty, making the atmosphere on the scene suddenly tense.
Luo Yuxi was about to open her mouth to explain something, but her husband stopped her in time. He knew that the current situation was complicated and it was not appropriate to intensify the conflict, so he squatted down and waved goodbye to the little girl again: "Little friend, see you again someday."
"Yeah, goodbye! Uncle Yun, Aunt Luo!" Yun Yiruo waved at them, with a childish and sincere smile on her little face, which made people unable to help but be moved.
At this time, Jiang Ling had just finished her work and walked over leisurely. From a distance, she saw the two men actually touching her little one.
Jiang Ling felt unhappy. She had learned about the background of the Yun family and admired their rapid rise in a short period of time.
She noticed that one of the two men kept his eyes on the jade bracelet on the little guy's wrist.
Jiang Ling could almost guess it, although the matter had not been confirmed yet. After all, it was his little thing's business, so he looked straight at the head of the Yun family - Yun Lingxuan.
"Boss Yun," Jiang Ling teased, "Why? Are you interested in the jade bracelet on my little one's hand?"
As she spoke, she deliberately rubbed Yun Yiruo's pink little face hard, as if she was declaring her sovereignty and showing her firm stance.
At this moment, Luo Yuxi couldn't help feeling unhappy when she heard the name "my little thing", but she knew that the current occasion was not suitable for expressing her emotions too directly.
So, she tilted her head slightly, trying to calm her anger while maintaining her elegance.
Facing Jiang Ling's provocation, Yun Lingxuan showed no weakness: "Boss Jiang, you're joking. I just felt that this jade bracelet was somewhat familiar, so I chatted with the kid for a few words."
However, Jiang Ling did not intend to show him any mercy, but fought back without hesitation: "Hey, want to chat for a few minutes? People who don't know you would think you are a human trafficker!" Her words were like a sharp blade, which instantly pierced the awkward atmosphere in the air.
Then, she gently lifted the little guy's wrist, removed the jade bracelet that shimmered with a warm luster, and tossed it toward Yun Lingxuan. "If you like it, take a good look at it," she said coldly. "After the auction, go to Room 1."
When she turned around, she took the little guy's hand and walked towards the private room.
