TGLC Chapter 1.3

A Child Of An Unknown Man? (3)

Advertisement

A figure suddenly ran out from the upstairs hallway. She was wearing a snow-white wedding dress. Her skin was as white as ice, her shoulders were slender, and her waist was slim. She looked a bit like Xie Qingyu.

Is this her aunt?

Just as Zhuzhu was thinking, she was picked up by her mother.

The little girl hugged her mother’s neck with her little hands and opened her big eyes wide, looking curiously at the person who was said to be her aunt.

She is the bride today, and she looks incredibly beautiful.

Zhuzhu opened her eyes wide and whispered to her mother: “Mom, is this my aunt? She is so pretty!”

Xie Qingyu smiled, patted her daughter’s head, and went upstairs, saying, “Zhuzhu, be good. Don’t talk nonsense later.”

Zhuzhu blinked her beautiful eyes with a confused expression.

Why did Mom say she talked nonsense?

Zhuzhu was a little unhappy and pouted, saying, “Zhuzhu is not the type to talk nonsense.”

“Mom wronged Zhuzhu.”

Xie Qingyu saw her daughter’s adorable, angry expression and kissed her fair forehead.

She smiled and said, “Good girl.”

Zhuzhu snorted softly in a proud manner.

When they went upstairs, Xie Huiyin had already been taken back by the bridesmaid to put on makeup.

After being away for a few years, Xie Qingyu was still as familiar with this house as before, and the main layout had not changed much, so she walked into Xie Huiyin’s room with familiarity.

Her sister was putting on her makeup.

There were a bunch of makeup artists and bridesmaids surrounding her.

Xie Qingyu’s mother was also inside.

Seeing her return, she smiled a bit nervously: “Qingqing is back.”

Because today was her sister’s wedding day, her mother had dressed with exceptional elegance. She wore a crimson cheongsam embroidered with magpies, and a gleaming and pure gold headdress. She still looked very charming.

It had been so long since she’d seen her mother, and the previous unpleasantness seemed to have temporarily vanished.

Xie Qingyu smiled and called out, “Mom.”

Then she said to Zhuzhu, “Zhuzhu, call grandma.”

Zhuzhu smiled with her eyes curved and a sweet smile: “Grandma.”

Lu Jing, seeing Zhuzhu, who bore a passing resemblance to Xie Qingyu, asked with some surprise, “This child…”

Xie Qingyu repeated her earlier remarks.

Hearing this, Xie Huiyin turned her back to her and said, “Sister… So you just gave birth to a child for a man of unknown origin?”

“You might as well have given Duan Zihui a child. Look, now all the money’s gone to that Gu girl.”

Xie Qingyu suddenly felt a little regretful about coming back.

If it weren’t for her mother’s pleading, she absolutely wouldn’t have wanted to come back. After all, she and Xie Huiyin had been incompatible since childhood, and now she was starting to annoy her the moment she arrived.

Xie Qingyu said with a forced smile, “If you’re jealous, you can marry him.”

Seeing that the two sisters were about to start a fight again, Lu Qing immediately said, “Okay, Yinyin, shut up. Let the makeup artist put on your makeup. Xu Yang will be here soon.”

Xie Huiyin was a little dissatisfied, but before her sister returned, her mother had warned her not to speak carelessly. So, after forcing herself to hold back, Xie Huiyin fell silent, waiting for her makeup to be done with a frustrated look on her face.

The staff members nearby glanced at each other, a flicker of confusion in their eyes.

However, they all knew better than to get involved. After all, they had been working for many years and had seen all kinds of weddings, some even ending in inconclusive marriages. Besides, this seemed to be just a minor disagreement between sisters.

Zhuzhu, who was standing next to them, listened to the conversation between her mother and the others, looked at each other’s expressions, and probably understood one thing.

The relationship between her mother and her aunt wasn’t good.

Zhuzhu, who was protecting her mother, suddenly disliked her aunt.
