Dressed as the protagonist's young and beautiful stepmother

According to the address given by Xue Boshen, Jiang Shiying successfully arrived at his destination, but he had to swipe his face or card at the entrance of the community to enter.

"Xiao Yu, wait a minute, Uncle will call your Uncle Qi and ask him to pick us up."

"Uh-huh."

When Jiang Shiying dialed, Qi Ming's call from Xue Boshen was quickly connected.

"Hi, I'm Jiang Shiying."

"I'm at the gate of the community, can I trouble you to come down and pick it up?"

"Really? Yes, yes."

"Excuse me, thank you."

"Well, see you later."

Jiang Shiying saw that the other person hung up the phone, put the phone back on, and waited for the woman Qi Ming was talking about on the phone.

He pulled Xue Wenyu to stand in the corner, and seeing the child's obviously nervous face, he squatted down and squeezed his little face to comfort him: "Xiao Yu, don't be nervous, haven't you already been looking forward to a summer vacation? Come on, take a deep breath .”

Xue Wenyu pursed his lips, with a thin layer of sweat on his palms, and took a deep breath listening to his words.

Suddenly, a shadow covered his face, Jiang Shiying looked up subconsciously, and saw a big blonde beauty standing in front of them.

Thinking of Qi Ming's description, Jiang Shiying knew that this should be the person who came to pick them up.

He hurriedly stood up and said, "Hi, hello, is this Miss Lana? I'm Jiang Shiying."

The beauty nodded, speaking fluent Mandarin, "It's me, you are Mingming's friend?"

Jiang Shiying nodded.

After confirming his identity, the icy-faced beauty immediately showed a bright smile.

Suddenly, he pinched his face very quickly, then squatted down, pinched Xue Wenyu's small face, "Wow, you are so beautiful, the shape of your lips and nose are very similar, are you father and son?"

Jiang Shiying was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and explained, "No."

The woman stood up, took out an access card from her pocket, walked over to the security guard and said, "They are my friends, they are guests at my house."

"Okay, okay." The security guard replied immediately.

Then she turned her head and said to the two: "Let's go, you two beauties."

Jiang Shiying immediately pulled Xue Wenyu to follow. The community they were in was located in the suburbs. Although it was a bit far from the city center, the scenery was beautiful and clean enough.

"I heard from Ming Ming that Edward made a friend, but I didn't expect it to be your child. He is indeed very discerning."

Jiang Shiying smiled, and said, "It turns out that the kid's name is Edward, and the mixed race is also very good-looking. It's Wen Yu's first time making friends."

At this time, he finally started to look at the woman in front of him.

She has dazzling golden curly hair, beautiful blue pupils, deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, and a few freckles on her face, but it doesn't spoil her beauty at all, on the contrary, she has a little more personality.

Her face was not big, but her facial features had a kind of sharp beauty. She looked heroic, and her height was about the same as his. She was thin but not weak. Moreover, seeing her walking posture, Jiang Shiying also had affirmation of her profession in her heart.

"Miss Lana, you look like a professional model."

The woman had already noticed his scrutiny, and smiled when she heard the words, "Jiang, can I call you that?"

"OK."

"Jiang, you have really good eyesight. You actually guessed my occupation in such a short time. However, I have quit the circle, and now I am just an ordinary English teacher."

Hearing this, Jiang Shiying was a little surprised.

He used to have friends who were in the modeling circle, although he knew how much sweat and effort they had put in for this profession, and even for this profession, they would never marry for life.

At this time, he saw the freedom and ease that ordinary people did not have in this woman.

"You look surprised," Lana said, glancing at him.

Jiang Shiying nodded, "Yes."

"Haha, your expression just now is exactly the same as that group of friends' expressions when I announced my retirement."

Just like that, the two chatted and quickly entered the elevator.

Sensing the tense hand, Jiang Shiying rubbed the child's head and comforted him silently.

When the door opened, Xue Wenyu shrank behind Jiang Shiying as if retreating, tilting his head and looking at the door.

Edward stood at the door, his eyes lit up, and he shouted inside: "Father, my beautiful brother is here."

Soon, a man also came over, with a pink apron with lace around his waist.

"Mr. Qi, excuse me."

"Don't bother me, come in and sit down."

"Dear Lana, I've made your favorite little cake and it'll be ready soon."

Jiang Shiying looked at the family of three in a harmonious atmosphere and sat down on the sofa. Xue Wenyu was still a little cautious, only to see Edward holding a rose made of paper and handing it to him.

"I folded this specially for you, please accept it."

"Mom said that friends should exchange names with each other. My Chinese name is Qi Siyuan. You can also call me Edward. What's your name?"

Xue Wenyu took the flowers, looked at him, and said, "Xue, Xue Wenyu."

"Then I will call you Little Feather, your name is very cute, let's go, I will show you my small amusement park"

Jiang Shiying listened, pursed his lips and smiled, and felt funny seeing Xue Wenyu being dragged away, and he was relieved. It seems that the two little guys will get along well.

"They're cute, aren't they?"

The rich aroma spread into the tip of his nose, a plate of baked golden cakes was placed on the table, and the woman sat down opposite him.

Jiang Shiying replied, "It's really cute."

Lana smiled slightly, "Try this little cake, it tastes very good."

"Thank you Miss Lana."

Lana rested her chin and stared at his face, and said, "You look young, but you don't have the same temperament, you will be... much calmer."

Jiang Shiying smiled, picked up a small cake bluntly, and took a bite, "Really? It's really delicious, and it tastes very fragrant."

As soon as I looked up, I saw the woman was still staring at this place, and suddenly remembered what Mr. Qi said in the art museum back then.

This lady, seems to be a...face control?

But who is Jiang Shiying?Just show her so generously.

After about 2 minutes, the woman sat up straight, "You are very suitable to be an entertainer. Ming Ming shyly hid behind his friend when I stared at him for half a minute."

Hearing her intimate nickname, Jiang Shiying felt a little envious, when would he and Xue Boshen call each other's names like this.

deeply?Shadow?

Thinking of this, he burst out laughing.

"Your titles are very interesting. I just substituted my husband and I. It's a bit funny."

Lana also covered her mouth and smiled, and poured him a glass of water.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, people here like to say thank you."

Jiang Shiying was silent and didn't answer.

The two chatted for a while, Qi Ming took off the apron on his waist, and said, "Dinner is ready."

Then I heard laughter from the room, and then Edward ran out with Xue Wenyu and came to the dining table.

"Father, what delicious food did you cook today?"

Qi Ming poked him on the head and said, "Come in and help Dad serve the food."

"Yes, father."

"Little Feather, sit down first, Uncle Beauty, Mommy is coming over for dinner."

Listening to his lively voice, Jiang Shiying praised her decision in her heart. If he hadn't taken Xue Wenyu to the art museum, she wouldn't have known this playmate.

Moreover, at present, it seems that the personalities of the two complement each other very well.

"Let's go, eat first."

The two children sat together, Qi Ming and Lana sat facing each other, and Jiang Shiying sat opposite the two children.

Jiang Shiying was surprised when he saw the table full of delicious food. He didn't expect Qi Ming to have such a skill.

"Father, Mommy, Uncle Beauty, Little Feather, start!"

Jiang Shiying looked at this different sense of ritual and smiled slightly, feeling that the atmosphere here is really good.

After eating and staying for a while, Jiang Shiying suddenly received a message from Jiang Dong on his phone.

Jiang Shiying looked at the news on the phone, frowned, pursed her lips, and said apologetically to the couple: "I'm sorry, I have something to do in the studio, and I need to go to deal with it now, thank you for your hospitality."

"That's a pity."

Jiang Shiying looked at Xue Wenyu who was solving the Rubik's Cube not far away, and said, "Xiao Yu, we should go."

Xue Wenyu stopped what he was doing, stood up and walked to him, the excitement in his eyes hadn't faded away.

Edward followed behind him, full of reluctance, looked up at Jiang Shiying, and said, "Uncle Beauty, can Little Feather stay here and play with me?"

Jiang Shiying looked down at Xue Wenyu and said, "Wen Yu, what do you think?"

Xue Wenyu hesitated, looked at Edward, then at Jiang Shiying.

Lana said: "Edward has just returned to China, and he doesn't have any friends, why not leave Little Feather and let the two children be companions."

Jiang Shiying hesitated for a moment, thinking of Xue Boshen, who was busy with work recently, and the things he had to deal with, he also preferred Xue Wenyu to stay here.

He squatted down, let go of his hand, rubbed Xue Wenyu's head and said, "Xiaoyu, why don't you stay at Uncle Qi's house and play with Edward for a few more days, then your father and I will come pick you up again."

Xue Wenyu only hesitated for a second or two, then nodded seriously.

"Then I'll wait for uncle and dad to pick me up."

Edward hugged Xue Wenyu and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Uncle Beauty, I will definitely take good care of Xiaoyu, don't worry."

Jiang Shiying stood up and said to the two with a smile.

"Xiaoyu will trouble you to take care of it. Brother Xue and I will visit again when the time comes."

"You're welcome, next time you must bring Xue Boshen with you."

Jiang Shiying didn't say much, went out and entered the elevator.

The closed elevator door seemed to be a signal, and Jiang Shiying's face immediately turned flat. He took out his phone to unlock the screen, and looked at the message sent by Jiang Dong.

Assistant Jiang: Boss, two elderly people came to the company, saying they are your biological parents, and you need to go back to the company to deal with them now.

Jiang Shiying frowned at this short passage. In the original book, Jiang Shiying was an orphan from beginning to end, and there was no drama about his biological parents looking for him.

Now he suddenly appeared, and he found his location accurately, no matter how you think about it, it's not right.

Jiang Shiying took a taxi, came to the door of the company, and immediately called Jiang Dong.

"Hello? I'm downstairs in the studio."

"Those two old people, you arrange them in the rest room first, and I'll be right there."

"Well, that's it, hang up."

When Jiang Shiying came to the studio, the boredom in his heart became heavier and heavier. It was a kind of boredom when things were out of track.

His pace became slower and slower, and he walked abruptly for two to three minutes in just a few steps.

Outside the door of the lounge, through the window, he saw two old men sitting inside, and Jiang Dong was sitting beside them talking.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Shiying from the corner of his eye.

After more than ten seconds, he came out of the rest room and came to Jiang Shiying's side.

"Boss, here we come."

"Ah."

Jiang Dong looked at his plain expression and said, "Would you like to go in and see him?"

Jiang Shiying's hesitation flickered, "Everyone is here, it's okay to go in and meet."

The two entered the rest room, and the eyes of the two old men were on Jiang Shiying for a moment. Jiang Tong smiled and introduced: "This is our Mr. Jiang. You talk first. I have something to do. Go out first."

He closed the door wisely.

Jiang Shiying walked to the opposite side of the two elderly people and sat down. He looked at the two of them with his eyes and felt a sudden pain in his heart. He didn't know what to say.

He really couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere, so he spoke first.

"You two old men, I have heard from Mr. Jiang about your ... matter. May I ask, how did you find me?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, the woman immediately burst into tears, "Like, so similar, you must be our child."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and tugged on her wife's sleeve, saying, "You should have something to say."

"Ah, yes, you must be our child." He echoed, his tone affirmative.

Jiang Shiying concealed the doubts in his heart.

"I'm indeed an orphan, but I never knew who my parents were? Can you tell me who told you I'm here?"

He asked for the second time, staring straight at them, suppressing his heartache.

Looking at the dodge and hesitation in the eyes of the two elders, Jiang Shiying's suspicion grew heavier in his heart.

Also, when he saw the two old people just now, he felt uncontrollable in his body. Just like that nightmare, Jiang Shiying bit his tongue, and the pain made this feeling fade away a lot.

Finally, the woman explained: "That's right, I saw it on the Internet, and the villagers told us that you look very similar to our daughter, and our family lost a boy doll before, who was about the same age as you."

Jiang Shiying pondered for a while, "So, you don't have conclusive evidence?"

Hearing this, the old woman became anxious.Immediately opened the old-fashioned black leather bag he was carrying, took out a photo from it, walked up to Jiang Shiying, and showed it to him.

"Look, this is my daughter. Look at the two of you, don't you look alike? She is your sister."

Jiang Shiying didn't care at first, but when his eyes came into contact with the photo, his pupils shrank.

The two middle-aged people sitting in the photo look much younger, but they are indeed these two old people.

And the girl behind them had two braids, put her hands on his chair, and smiled beautifully.

Curved willow-leaf eyebrows, beautiful almond eyes, a straight nose, the same pouty lips, and an oval face.

Looking at it alone, it doesn't look very similar to Jiang Shiying, but when they are put together, they are eighty percent alike.

Jiang Shiying took the photo and smiled at the woman, "There are many people who look like them in the world. If possible, let's do a paternity test, and the truth will be revealed by then."

Hear him.The woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"That's ok, kid... you can see when you do it."

Seeing that she could even agree to the paternity test, Jiang Shiying felt a little uncertain, looked down at the girl in the photo, and said, "I'll arrange a place for you to live in first, and I'll let you know when the time comes, what about you? Now go and have a good rest."

Then, he took out his mobile phone and sent Jiang Dong a message.

After a while, Jiang Dong put on a professional smile and welcomed the two elderly people out.

Jiang Shiying sat back, picked up the photo and looked at it again and again. The more he looked, the deeper his frown became.

Finally, he called Xue Boshen.

"Hello? Brother Xue."

There was a background sound of discussion on the phone, and then he heard Xue Boshen say something, and then there was the sound of the door opening, and the phone fell silent.

"Shiying, you were in a meeting just now, what's the matter?"

Jiang Shiying pinched the photo, looked at the girl on it, and said: "Just now. A couple of elderly people came to the studio and said they were my biological parents. I asked Jiang to take them to settle down."

paused.Jiang Shiying said again: "They showed me the photo of their daughter, I saw it, she looks very similar to me..."

The man listened to his words and leaned his back on the corridor outside.

"Shiying, if you want to ask anything, just ask."

Jiang Shiying blinked his sour eyes after staring for too long, "Brother Xue, are they my biological parents?"

"Yes."

Hearing his affirmative answer, Jiang Shiying knew that most of the guesses in his heart might have come true, and that the question he had been ignoring since then was finally going to be revealed.

About the girl in the photo...

"I found that not only is that girl very similar to me, but she and Xiao Yu are also very similar, Brother Xue."

The breathing in the phone lightened for a moment, and then there was a sigh.

"Shiying, I'm here to find you."

"No, Brother Xue, can you let me stay by myself?"

He replied in a slightly begging voice, one was on the 17th floor and the other was on the 6th floor. He chose to use his mobile phone to say this, and he was already deliberately avoiding it.

"Brother Xue, is she the one who gave birth to Xiaoyu?"

There was a long silence on the other side, "Yes."

Jiang Shiying blinked.

Looking at the girl in the photo, I felt complicated, and it turned out to be really, really.

"So this is ah."

"Brother Xue, then I'm fine, hang up first."

This time, he hung up the phone without waiting for the person on the other side to respond, and curled up on the sofa with his head buried in his knees.

He put the wrinkled photo on the table like that.

At this moment, he only felt a mess in his head.

Ideal told him that he was not the original owner, and he didn't have to pay attention to those antecedents.

But in his mind, he couldn't help but think about those corners and corners, and couldn't help guessing.

In the final analysis, he still cared. He cared that even though Xue Boshen liked him, when he looked at him, he would think of that girl. Even though he didn't like her, let alone love her.

"It's so messy, why is this..."

Then, he thought, the facts he now understands can better explain why Xue Boshen chose the original owner and took such a big deal.

"So it's all because of her."

Jiang Shiying let himself go, a feeling of powerlessness suddenly appeared in his body, his hands slipped and fell on the sofa, and he sat in this position for an indeterminately long time.

Only then did he raise his head, stretched his limbs, and found that his hands and feet were extremely numb, numb, and cold.

Taking a deep breath, he sat up from the sofa, picked up his phone and checked, there was no call, no news.

Suddenly, Jiang Shiying felt uncomfortable, tears fell uncontrollably on his thighs, and he fainted a lot.

"Xue Boshen, you bastard! Why didn't you tell me in advance, if you did, I wouldn't be thinking wildly now, and I wouldn't be so uncomfortable!"

He said resignedly.

While talking, she wiped her tears, and sobbed softly on the back of the sofa.

It's the first time he likes someone, but the original reason may be something like a substitute, he really can't accept it.

Moreover, the way he smiled was really similar to him. The original owner didn't smile, but he was smiling.

Jiang Shiying thought desperately.

After crying enough, he went to the bathroom and washed his face, sobering up.

Then enter the elevator and go up to the 17th floor.

When he came to the office, he knocked on the door.

Looking at Xue Boshen who looked up, Xue Boshen hurriedly stood up and came to him in three steps at a time, "Shiying."

The first thing I noticed was his red and swollen eyes. The moisture inside hadn't completely dissipated yet, and he felt a pain in his heart when he saw it. He touched the end of his eyes with his fingers and pressed the small mole.

"Why, are you still crying?"

Jiang Shiying looked at him and said aggrievedly, "It's not all your fault."

Xue Bo pursed his lips deeply, moved his fingers to the back of his head, and easily pressed him into his arms.

"Don't cry, I feel bad."

Jiang Shiying hugged him and said, "Stop crying, brother Xue will hurt me even more."

"In the beginning, I chose you because of her, because of guilt, and because of atonement."

Jiang Shiying listened quietly.

"They are not a good pair of parents. Your biological father is good at wine, and your biological mother is good at wine. They 'sold' her because they owed usury, and the person who bought her was my mother, and my mother It is for me, and I have an inescapable responsibility."

"I met her twice. The first time was brought by her mother, and the second time she came by herself. She came to beg me. She has a young and lost brother. She hopes that I can find him and take care of him. he."

"The thing is too long ago. It took me six years to find it. Unfortunately, she can no longer see it. And you were not kidnapped, and it was just a premeditated transaction."

Jiang Shiying listened to the cause and effect, and it was obviously someone else's story, but a sense of sadness rose in his heart, and then began to dissipate slowly.

"It turned out to be like this. Fortunately, I was not deceived by them, otherwise I might have to be sold again."

He raised his head from Xue Boshen's embrace and looked at him, "Then do you have anything to hide from me?"

Seeing that he was silent, Jiang Shiying snorted coldly, stood on tiptoe, and took a hard bite on his lip, tasting the fishy sweetness before letting go.

"punish!"?
