Chapter 37 Encountering Liu Lanfei
Gu Yan still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by her grandma.
“Yan, I know that you are worried about me. But I’m afraid of nothing as I’m so old. Recently, I thought a lot in the hospital and dreamed of your grandpa. I haven’t dreamed of him for so many years. I am quite happy to see him.”
Gu Yan had never seen her grandma smiling so gently.
“Grandpa?” She hadn’t seen her grandpa.
“Yeah, you have never seen your grandpa. He passed away before you were born and didn’t even see your father getting married.” This was the biggest regret.
“Grandma, why was I taken to Wen’s family then?” Gu Yan asked suddenly. She was wondering about this.
“I took you for fortunetelling when you were born. The fortune teller said that you were a person who would bring luck and fortune to your husband and children, and you would be never worried about making a living in the future. Yunfeng’s grandpa was also from our village. He saw you were cute and could bring good luck, so he wanted to take you to Wen’s family. He assured me that he wouldn’t let you be wronged and would treat you as his own granddaughter. Life was tough in our family at that time, so I thought it was better to let him take you away and give you a better life than let you stay at home and become an ordinary rural girl. He really kept his promise. You have married Yunfeng and became the young mistress of Wen’s family. Grandma doesn’t need to worry about you and can be with your grandpa at ease. You can go through the discharge formalities recently. I want to go back to the countryside and I have been content with the extra years I lived.”
“Grandma, don’t say that. I am sad to hear that. You are my only family.” Gu Yan didn’t like her grandma to say that.
“Did you quarrel with Yunfeng?” Grandma mentioned Wen Yunfeng suddenly.
“Grandma, why do you think so?” Gu Yan still tried to cover the reality, and at least it was not very suitable to talk about it now.
There was no affection between her and Wen Yunfeng. Wen Yunfeng was very filial to her grandma before because he loved Gu Yan. But after all that happened, he gradually forgot Gu Yan’s existence. How could he care about her grandma?
“I haven’t seen Yunfeng these days. I think there must be something wrong between you and him. I can also see that you are very unhappy recently.” Grandma stared at Gu Yan suddenly. Although she was old, she could still feel that there was something wrong between them.
“Grandma, I will tell you after you recover. Is that okay?” Gu Yan felt that her grandma had already noticed it, but it was really not suitable to talk about these things at the moment.
“You…” Grandma still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Gu Yan.
“Grandma, there is no hot water in the thermos. I will get some.” Gu Yan took the thermos and went out.
Seeing that Gu Yan slipped away like escaping, Grandma felt worried and realized that something serious might happen between Gu Yan and Wen Yunfeng.
When coming back with the thermos full of hot water, Gu Yan encountered Liu Lanfei.
Liu Lanfei’s face was pale and she was thinner than she was seen last time. And there was a duffel bag in her hand.
“Was she sick? Wasn’t she pregnant?” Gu Yan thought.
Gu Yan had many questions but she pretended not to see Liu Lanfei and wanted to walk past her directly.
She never expected that Liu Lanfei stopped her.
“Cousin.”
Gu Yan stopped and turned around, but she said nothing.
“Cousin, why are you eager to go while seeing me.” Liu Lanfei smiled weakly and pretended that nothing happened between them. Gu Yan wondered if Liu Lanfei knew that she seemed really shameless at the moment.
“Why did you come here?” Gu Yan asked finally.
“I have something to do here.” Who would come to the hospital idly?
“Well.” Gu Yan didn’t want to know what Liu Lanfei was doing in the hospital. She hadn’t treated Liu Lanfei as her sister since Liu Lanfei hooked up with Wen Yunfeng.
“You have divorced brother Yunfeng, aren’t you?” Liu Lanfei suddenly asked.
“It’s none of your business. Even if I divorce him, you will never be his wife.” Wen Yunfeng couldn’t tolerate that Liu Lanfei deceived him with the baby of others. Moreover, he just regarded Liu Lanfei as one of his mistresses.
“Oh, I am not interested in Wen Yunfeng now. And I have aborted his baby.” Since the child couldn’t help her marry into a wealthy family, why did she keep it?
“Are you sure that it is his child?” Didn’t Wen Yunfeng speak out the truth last time?
“No matter whose child it is, I have already aborted it.” Liu Lanfei thought, “It didn’t matter whose child it was. As the child had no value, it shouldn’t be kept.”
“You aborted the child? Why? You can find the child’s biological father?” Gu Yan didn’t think that Liu Lanfei should abort the child. It was her child. How could she be so heartless?
“Do you still want to ask the reason? I thought I could force him to divorce you using this child. I didn’t expect him to be so heartless.” Wen Yunfeng changed his attitude immediately after knowing that it was not his baby. Liu Lanfei thought she would be abandoned mercilessly even if she was not pregnant.
“Now that it’s not his child, he won’t swallow his furious in silence. You really underestimate him. He can be so cruel to me, not to mention you. Unfortunately, you don’t know what kind of man he is.” Liu Lanfei only knew that Wen Yunfeng was rich, but she didn’t know his ruthlessness. Gu Yan’s situation was caused by him.
Suddenly, Liu Lanfei looked at Gu Yan strangely and her eyes were filled with unidentified sadness.
“It was me who told others that you were a surrogate mother.” Liu Lanfei mentioned that as if nothing had happened.
“I knew.” Gu Yan had known it early. She didn’t expect that Liu Lanfei should admit. But why did she mention it suddenly?
“Have you already known that?” Liu Lanfei was a little surprised. How did Gu Yan know? Why did she still be kind to her and helped her find jobs since she knew that?
“I was just thinking that you were my younger sister. You were so young that you told others unconsciously, so I never blamed you.” At that time, Liu Lanfei was a simple girl and maybe she did it unintentionally.
“I did that deliberately.” Liu Lanfei said. She was deliberate because she wanted to make use of it to destroy Gu Yan’s rich life. She didn’t expect that it was successful. She was very happy and even began to seduce Wen Yunfeng to replace Gu Yan.
“I know it now.” Ever since she saw that Liu Lanfei seduced Wen Yunfeng, she thought of it. But she didn’t expect that Liu Lanfei would be so selfish.
“Do you know that I am jealous of you?” Liu Lanfei suddenly showed a resentful look. She was really jealous of Gu Yan. Even if they were born to the same mother, she had nothing but Gu Yan could easily get what she wanted. Liu Lanfei thought it was not fair.
