Tan Ming saw her parents’ serious expressions and was stunned for a moment. She followed them in, but Jiang Huai was very calm. As long as his sister was around, his parents would lower their voices even if they were angry.
With his hands in his pockets, Jiang Huai was the last to enter.
“Close the door.” Jiang Hai reminded.
Although Jiang Huai was puzzled, he still obediently closed the door. “What’s the matter? Why are you so mysterious?”
The four of them sat on the guest sofa in the study. Tan Ming and Jiang Huai flipped through the report under their parents’ instructions.
Jiang Huai felt that this outcome was simply satisfying. “F*ck! Si Cheng is seriously the biggest cheater now. The heavens really have eyes. He deserves it! He even forced An’an to get a divorce and abortion for such a mistress. Scumbag!”
After Tan Ming finished reading it, she frowned slightly. “Tan Si’s behavior doesn’t seem to reflect this. She’s very sure that she gave birth to Si Cheng’s child. Moreover, even if they’d already been married, the Si family would definitely do a paternity test. This can’t be hidden at all. Dad, is this report correct?”
Jiang Hai nodded. “Your brother has confirmed it again and again.”
Seeing this, Li Mei hurriedly asked, “An’an, if the Si family comes looking for you again and hopes that you’ll return to the Si family, what will you think?”
Tan Ming was still thinking about the paternity test when she was interrupted by Li Mei’s words. She replied without hesitation, “I definitely won’t go back. This period of separation has only strengthened my previous opinion. As I said before, there’s a problem with my marriage with Si Cheng. This problem is mostly because we’re not compatible at all. Even without Tan Si, we’d have gotten a divorce because of someone else or something.”
Li Mei patted Tan Ming’s head in relief. “That’s right. Just keep this in mind. As soon as someone comes to persuade you to return to the Si family, recite this sentence silently. Don’t give in just because you’re soft-hearted.”
The couple thought that they would have to do some thinking for their daughter, but they didn’t expect them to be thinking it through completely.
However, Tan Ming still thought about the paternity test afterward. After all, the two of them had grown up together. Tan Ming had some understanding of Tan Si. Tan Si would do brainless things when she was impulsive. However, the child involved whether she could marry into the Si family. Such a critical matter was very easy to verify. It was impossible to fake it. Therefore, there must have been a problem at some point.
The birthday banquet arrived very soon. Jiang Hai sent a car to pick Tan Ming up.
Yaoxian Residence
Tan Rou had booked a banquet venue in a club in the suburbs. The environment was quiet and elegant.
Tan Ming found the venue according to the address and happened to bump into Tan Rou, who was about to pick her up.
Tan Ming ran over happily. “Aunt! Happy birthday to you today!”
Tan Rou also jogged forward to hug Tan Ming. She couldn’t suppress the joy in her eyes. “Thank you! I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to find the place and wanted to pick you up.”
The two of them separated and looked at each other carefully. Ever since Tan Rou went overseas, they had not seen each other for 10 years. Tan Ming looked at the beautiful woman in front of her in a black dress. The elegant and generous aunt in her childhood memories who always had starry eyes had returned.
Tan Ming knew that her aunt was doing well overseas. Now, it seemed that she was doing better than she had imagined. She was completely relieved.
Tan Rou stroked Tan Ming’s hair and said in relief, “You’re as tall as me. The more you grow, the prettier you become. I almost didn’t recognize you just now.”
Tan Ming lowered her head in embarrassment. “I can’t compare to Auntie. Auntie is even more beautiful than before.”
Tan Rou was not very old. She was only 33 years old. She and her ex-husband were university classmates. They got married as soon as they graduated. She thought that it was a love that everyone envied from school to marriage. However, Tan Rou insisted on marrying despite her parents’ objections. In the end, she was cheated on and abandoned. That was why she could not let go of the depression in her heart for a long time and suffered.
Tan Rou held Tan Ming’s hand and entered the banquet. She smiled and said, “I’m old. 1 can’t compare to young ladies like you, with faces full of collagen. I didn’t invite lots of people today. There were only about ten to twenty people. They were all close relatives and friends.”
Tan Ming originally wanted to talk to Tan Rou more, so she came over much earlier. She followed Tan Rou into the venue and asked with concern, “Aunt, how have you been in the past few years? When you first went overseas, we kept in touch more. Later on, in order to find inspiration, you often went to places where 1 couldn’t contact you. We only contacted each other during major holidays.”
“Every time I ask you, you say yes, yes, yes. I don’t know if you’re really doing
well or just saying it to comfort me..”
