The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Jiang Zhan's room is in the corner of the top floor. It is the same suite. Outside is a small study room. In addition to a retro bookshelf, there is a long table in the study room.

On the small shelf on the table are various natural pigments in transparent bottles, some of which still look like the original minerals.

Jiang Xuxu didn't know much about pigments, and at a glance he could only recognize the common ones like cinnabar, coral, and lapis lazuli.

The sun shines brightly outside the window, and the sun shines on half of the house.

It was half because his curtains were half-covered.

He painted while standing on the dividing line between light and shadow.

The painting is in the light and he is in the shadow.

This is what Jiang Xuxu saw when he entered the door.

Perhaps Atractylodes atractylodes had relieved his physical pain and made him interested. Now he stared at the canvas with a heavy gaze, but his hand movements were somewhat casual, and he sketched out a few small fishes in a few strokes.

Jiang Xuxu stood aside and waited for a while. Seeing that he was still drawing the fish slowly and had no intention of stopping, he asked him directly,

"Who made your substitute boy for you?"

Jiang Zhan's pen tip for drawing fish only paused for a moment, then changed his pen to add color to his small fish, as if he had heard nothing just now.

Jiang Xuxu then continued,

"I know you didn't tell the truth just now. You don't want to talk about it in front of your family, so I came to ask you alone."

Mainly because the second uncle is so annoying.

If she had just asked the question in front of the family, I am afraid that before she asked carefully, the person would suddenly interrupt to educate her son, which would be of no use at all and would delay things.

Jiang Xuxu thought that if he asked alone, he should be able to reveal something.

But Jiang Zhan only glanced sideways at her, finally put down his little fish, walked to the side and started playing with his paint.

At this time, the advantages of being a mute are revealed.

When he doesn't want to talk, he can just stay silent.

Jiang Xuxu didn't know why, but she could see that the other person's eyes looked at her without any malice, and there was no directness or impatience like Jiang Han and Jiang Cheng had at first.

After thinking about it, Jiang Xuxu simply poked him with words.

"No matter who made the stand-in for you, it is obviously irresponsible for the other party to let you use the stand-in to block the evil. If you come into contact with the other party in the future, you'd better be more careful."

Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Xuxu said these words, Jiang Zhan finally stopped all the movements in his hands, turned around, his expression became slightly gloomy, and he gestured towards her very quickly with his hands.

Jiang Xuxu looked at him confidently, "I can't understand sign language. Just type it."

Jiang Zhan glanced at her, but still picked up the phone, tapped it, and then stared at Jiang Xuxu closely.

[She is not irresponsible. 】

You can't say that about her.

"who is she?"

Jiang Xuxu succeeded in getting him to speak, so naturally he would not give up questioning.

Jiang Zhan looked at her and typed.

【You really want to know? 】

Just as Jiang Xuxu was about to open his mouth, he saw that his next sentence had already been typed.

【I will not tell you. 】

Jiang Xuxu:...

Is this cousin being naughty with her?

But looking at the expressionless look on his face, it really doesn't look like him.

Jiang Xuxu wanted to ask more questions, but he put down his phone and said nothing.

If you say you won’t tell, you won’t tell.

Jiang Xuxu couldn't do anything to him for a while.

If it were Jiang Han and the others, she would still be able to use some "means".

But for Jiang Zhan, she didn't think that was the case.

If you don't say it, don't say it.

Jiang Xuxu turned around and was about to leave, but when she reached the door, she suddenly heard mechanical electronic sounds coming from behind her.

[Do you know why my parents divorced? 】

Jiang Xuxu thought he was simply curious and wanted to know the reason. She knew the reason, but she was not sure whether to tell him or not.

After all, the inside story is quite disturbing.

Before Jiang Xuxu hesitated to give the result, Jiang Zhan heard another voice.

【I know why. 】

Jiang Xuxu was startled and looked into Jiang Zhan's slightly gloomy eyes. With just one glance, she knew that he really knew the inside story.

But, who told him?

She thought it couldn't be a family member.

Apart from a few parties involved, only Mr. Jiang knew the inside story. Even Mrs. Jiang didn't tell the matter, and Jiang Han and the others were even less aware of it.

Who said that?

It can't be the second uncle himself?

"How did you know?" Jiang Xuxu asked him.

Jiang Zhan smiled.

There was some sarcasm in that smile.

He did not type, but raised his hand, raised two fingers, and pointed them at his eyes.

Jiang Xuxu was startled.

She didn't understand sign language, but she could understand the gesture.

He... saw it with his own eyes.

Jiang Xuxu felt a little ridiculous.

Apart from last time in Bei City, could it be that Yao Lin had done something outrageous?

But if she had done it, how could no one in the Jiang family notice? ?

Suddenly, she remembered what she had heard about Jiang Zhan before.

He and Yao Lin, his biological mother, had not been close since childhood.

Mrs. Jiang asked him to come back before but he refused. After Yao Lin went abroad, he came back on his own initiative.

"When did you know?"

Jiang Zhan seemed to find her calm look a bit boring. He lowered his head and typed quickly.

[Probably, four years old. 】

Even though Jiang Xuxu acted calmly, she couldn't help but secretly take a breath.

Four years old?

But thinking about it again, boys are precocious. Although they are in poor health, they are smarter than ordinary people. Even if Yao Lin did something and he noticed it, it seems to be justified.

However, Jiang Xuxu felt a little disgusted.

It's not that Jiang Zhan is disgusting, but Yao Lin is disgusting.

What did she do to make her four-year-old son aware of her dirty thoughts?

In fact, Jiang Xuxu overestimated.

Yao Lin didn't dare to make any bold move, let alone in front of her own son.

It's just that Jiang Zhan accidentally saw it at that time.

Jiang Zhan was four years old that year, while his younger brother Jiang Han was one year old and had just learned to speak.

Yao Lin took a family photo and pointed at Jiang Yucheng's photo, teasing him to call him "Dad."

She felt that Jiang Han was still young and no one would care even if he called the wrong person.

But it can satisfy her little wish.

Jiang Zhan vaguely understood it at that time.

Although he was being taken care of by his eldest aunt at that time, he was not completely devoid of feelings for his biological mother, Yao Lin.

But after that incident, his feelings for his biological mother completely cooled down.

And as he got older, he became more and more disgusted with his mother's thoughts.

That's his uncle.

He is also the husband of his aunt who has been taking care of him.

So how could he come back to see her off.

Although he was young at the time, he already understood shame.

He even didn't know how to face his eldest aunt.

But before he could figure out how to face it, his eldest aunt had already disappeared.

Because the eldest aunt's daughter was stolen, the eldest aunt did not know how to catch the gang, but accidentally fell into the sea and disappeared.

The rescue team only recovered a small amount of human tissue belonging to the eldest aunt.

They all said she was dead.

Jiang Zhan felt that the whole world was darkened at that time.

Compared with the blow that his biological mother brought to him, his aunt's departure was even more difficult for him to accept.

So when Jiang Xuxu said that the man was irresponsible, he refuted it.

She is not irresponsible.

She just didn't come back.
