Black Lotus is reborn, from campus to rich family

On the way back, Yu Xiao sat in the passenger seat, and the woman pulled Yu Suiwan to sit in the back seat.

The woman held Yu Suiwan's hand all the way and kept chattering: "Your mother's surname is Chen, and your father's surname is Zhong. Because you were born at night, we named you Zhong Wan. If you are not used to calling me mom, you can call me Aunt Chen..."

Yu Xiao looked at them through the rearview mirror. Although Yu Suiwan didn't say anything along the way, he didn't let go of her hand.

He let the rough hands hold him, his eyes, which had just been washed with water, sparkling and exceptionally bright, looking at the woman quietly.

Yu Xiao frowned and felt an inexplicable irritation rising in his heart as he looked at them.

The car stopped some distance from the city.

Yu Xiao got out of the car and looked at the pitch-black residential buildings around him, feeling even more irritated.

This place seems like a small town near Yan City, very remote, with street lights flickering and only the chirping of insects and frogs.

Yu Suiwan got off the car and the woman took her all the way to the farmhouse at the end of the road.

The yard looks particularly shabby and the house is a bit old, but you can still see traces of life.

Yu Suiwan looked around and found that the environment here was obviously very different from where he had lived before.

She turned to look at the woman beside her. The woman patted her hands gently and said with a smile, "We're home. Come in."

The yard was filled with all kinds of debris and looked a bit messy.

She stepped carefully over some things and came to the door of the house.

The woman pushed open the door and a stale smell hit her face.

Yu Suiwan stepped into the house and looked around. He found that the furnishings in the house were simple and plain, and looked like they were newly decorated.

The woman invited Yu Suiwan to sit down. "I knew you were coming, so I bought you some new sheets. And your brother, I didn't expect him to come, so I'll go clean up a room for him."

Yu Xiao stood at the door of the room, the stale smell hitting him. He had a blank expression on his face: "No need, I'll live here, I can just sleep on the floor."

The woman was a little dazed. She looked at Yu Suiwan, then at Yu Xiao behind her.

The boy was tall and stern, standing behind her like a tall hill, completely covering her shadow.

"Well, after all, you are not siblings, it's not good."

Yu Xiao's voice was cold: "It's hard to say whether you are mother and daughter now. What qualifications do you have to question us, who have lived together as siblings for more than ten years?"

Yu Suiwan tugged at her sleeve and said to the woman with a smile, "Aunt Chen, don't mind. My brother is worried about me too. I'll go with you to get a few more quilts to spread on the floor."

The woman shrank back, but said nothing, then turned around and went out to get a blanket.

Yu Suiwan shook Yu Xiao's sleeve: "Brother, calm down first."

Yu Xiao sat on the bed, the moonlight spilled down, blending with the dim incandescent lights in the room. There was a faint musty smell around him. Everything that happened today seemed absurd and outrageous.

He pinched his brows, took out his cell phone to send a message to his partner, only to find that the signal here was very poor.

Yu Xiao's brows became even more severe and he put his phone aside.

Yu Suiwan came over with a basin of water: "Brother, wash your hands first. We'll make do for the night."

Yu Xiao took the basin from her hand: "Is there no hot water here?"

Yu Suiwan was a little embarrassed: "There is cold water outside, and the hot water needs to be boiled. I don't know how to boil water on the stove."

Yu Xiao knew her habits and placed the basin on the wooden table: "Wash your face first, I'll go boil some water for you."

He turned and walked towards the kitchen. Yu Suiwan followed him guiltily, watching Yu Xiao holding the firewood in his hand, thinking for a few seconds, and then starting to light the fire.

It was very humid at the beginning, and the fire started and went out over and over again. Yu Xiao patiently went to find dry grass to start the fire.

After a lot of effort, the flames finally started to grow, lighting up the room.

The firelight diluted the coldness on Yu Xiao's face and made him look a little brighter.

Yu Suiwan sat next to him and said in a low voice, "Brother, I'm sorry."

Yu Xiao sat upright by the stove. Even a rough job like making fire looked like a noble young man in his hands.

He turned his head and saw Yu Suiwan sitting on a small stool. He was very small, with a gray and black streak on his face. It looked like he had tried to make a fire.

His hands were dirty, and he resisted the urge to touch her furry head.

"There's nothing to apologize for, Xiaowan. Brother will always be with you."

"Xiao Wan, don't think too much. Some things are destined. Since you are my sister now, no matter which family you choose, the relationship between us for more than ten years will not change. You will always be my only sister."

Yu Xiao silently added firewood to the stove. The flames licked the bottom of the pot, and the water in the pot began to make a "gurgling" sound.

His voice was particularly warm in the silent night, and Yu Suiwan nodded with a sob.

"Brother, she is really pitiful. Her husband passed away and now she is all alone. I don't know what to do."

Yu Xiao stared at the rolling water with a cold look in his eyes.

Since her family dislikes girls, how could they not force her to give birth to more boys?

Pitiful?

Only a kind-hearted person like Wanwan would feel pity for her. In his eyes, this kind of woman is like rat shit falling into the soup, disgusting.

Selfish and greedy.

Even have ulterior motives.

Yu Xiao poured water into the bucket and added cold water: "Go get your pajamas and come take a shower. I'll help you watch outside."

Yu Suiwan nodded and ran back to her room to get her clothes.

Yu Xiao sat in the yard. It was dark all around and the lights in the woman's room were off.

"Brother." Yu Suiwan's voice came from the kitchen.

Yu Xiao stood up: "What's wrong?"

The voice in the room breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother, it's good that you are here. Talk to me. I'm scared."

Yu Xiao sat back and chatted with her casually.

The night in the countryside was exceptionally quiet. He sat in the yard, reviewing everything that had happened today, and always felt a sense of inexplicable weirdness.

He would try to minimize their contact, regardless of whether she was Xiaowan's mother or not.

It’s just Xiaowan, he sighed.

Xiao Wan had finally found his mother. Although she seemed a little reserved and taciturn today, he knew that she was still very happy.

He had taken good care of his sister for more than ten years, and since she went to Beijing, she had never suffered any hardship.

But today I was dragged back by my family for unknown reasons.

This woman pulled her daughter back without asking any questions or worrying about whether her daughter could adapt to the unfamiliar environment.

What exactly is her purpose?

The door creaked open, and Yu Suiwan came out with a blushing face: "Brother, I left a bucket of water for you, go wash first."

Yu Xiao nodded: "Go to the room first."

Yu Suiwan sat on the stool he had just sat on: "I'll wait for you here, brother."

"It's cold outside, go put on some clothes."

Yu Xiao knew that she was afraid, and felt even more distressed. Suddenly, he felt a little relieved that the woman had sent her away, otherwise...

If Wanwan had lived in such a place since childhood, he couldn't imagine how heartbroken he would be.

After taking a shower, the two returned to the house.

Yu Suiwan got into bed and Yu Xiao slept on the floor.

The moon was shining brightly, and the person on the bed was tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.

"Brother." Yu Suiwan called him cautiously.

Yu Xiao lay flat on his back: "What's wrong?"

Yu Suiwan lay on the bed, looking at the moon in the sky, and curled the corners of his lips: "I'm so happy."

Yu Xiao opened his eyes. From his perspective, he couldn't see anything, but from her tone, he could feel the excitement in her words.

"I think I have a mother."

Yu Xiao didn't say anything, just listened to her mumbling to herself.

Yu Suiwan stared out the window as he spoke.

The dark shadow was vague and trembling slightly.

She whispered, "Good night, brother."
