Chapter 499 She's not our daughter
Family... Do I still have family?
Sun Aidi pursed her lips and shook her head blankly. "No."

Seeing this, Chen Meizhen asked in confusion, "Girl, what do you mean? If you don't call soon, your family will start to worry."

Sun Aidi's eyes welled with tears as she choked out, "I have no family."

"What?" Chen Meizhen looked at her in surprise. "How come you don't have any family?"

She quickly realized what was going on, "Honey, did you have a fight with your family?"

Sun Aidi turned her back to her, her shoulders trembling uncontrollably, and a suppressed sob escaped her throat.

Chen Meizhen was at a loss, unsure how to comfort her.

She sighed softly and left the room, leaving Sun Aidi with her own space.

Uncle Yong, who had been sleeping on the sofa in the living room, quickly sat up when he saw her come out and asked, "Meizhen, why did you come out? Is something wrong with your daughter?"

"It's nothing." Chen Meizhen sat down on another small sofa and remained quiet for a while before speaking, "She's not our Chuchu."

"How could she not be?" Uncle Yong exclaimed excitedly. "She is Chu Chu, she is our daughter!"

Chen Meizhen opened her mouth, but in the end, all that was left was a helpless sigh.

“She’s not Chuchu, I know.” She picked up the kettle and poured water into a glass, her tone bitter. “But Ayong doesn’t believe it. He thinks that girl is our Chuchu. I just can’t reason with him.”

Chen Meizhen placed the glass in front of them and said calmly, "You should have heard about A-Yong's situation. Everyone in the neighborhood knows about it."

Sometimes when Uncle Yong gets crazy, he sees everyone as his daughter.

Some young girls felt sorry for him and were willing to cooperate with him and coax him a few times.

Some young girls, unaware of the situation, get quite frightened and choose to call the police.

Over the years, the police have been coming to Uncle Yong's door constantly, and Chen Meizhen has long been used to it.

“Ah Yong’s condition has improved recently, and he’s stopped calling little girls on the street ‘daughter’.” Chen Meizhen’s voice was full of helplessness. “I was quite happy, but I didn’t expect him to take her home this time.”

Jiang Yuan frowned slightly and asked, "Didn't you take Uncle Yong to see a doctor?"

“I’ve seen it,” Chen Meizhen said. “Medication can only relieve the symptoms; it can’t cure the disease at all.”

Jiang Yuan felt deep sympathy for Uncle Yong's plight.

In a daze, she couldn't help but think of Xiao Xu, who had a similar experience.

But now was not the time to dwell on these things. She composed herself and asked, "How is the girl in that room?"

Speaking of this, Chen Meizhen frowned again, "That girl's condition is not good. She has been lying in bed, not eating or drinking, and has never even gotten out of bed. Whenever I asked for her family's contact information, she would just keep crying, so I didn't dare to ask anymore."

“She’s the person we’re looking for,” Jiang Yuan said softly. “I want to go in and see her.”

Chen Meizhen nodded, "Then go ahead, but I don't know if she's awake."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan carried Tuan Tuan Duck to the door and knocked gently. "Aidi, I've brought Tuan Tuan Duck to find you."

Sun Aidi lay on the bed, staring blankly at the slightly yellowed wall.

She knew there were people talking in the living room, but she didn't hear a word they were saying until a clear and gentle voice called out two familiar names.

Jiang Yuan pushed open the slightly ajar door and went inside.

Upon smelling the familiar scent and seeing the familiar figure, Tuan Tuan Duck excitedly exclaimed, "Quack quack quack! Woof woof woof, Little Flute, I've finally found you!"

Tuan Tuan Duck?
Sun Aidi slowly turned around, her gaze falling on that familiar, snow-white figure, and her eyes suddenly reddened.

She struggled to sit up, propping herself up on the edge of the bed, and choked out, "Tuan Tuan Ya, what are you doing here?"

Tuan Tuan duck fluttered around in Jiang Yuan's arms, "Quack~ Sister, the duck wants to hug Xiao Di!"

Jiang Yuan handed the Tuan Tuan Duck to Sun Aidi. Sun Aidi hugged the Tuan Tuan Duck and silently shed tears, "Tuan Tuan Duck."

Tuan Tuan Duck: "Quack!" The duck is here!
Sun Aidi pressed her cheek against its snow-white feathers and gently rubbed against them, a warm feeling welling up from the depths of her heart, a feeling of being moved by something lost and then found again.

Looking at this heartwarming scene of love and affection, Jiang Yuan pursed her lips slightly and said, "Aidi, Tuantuan Duck is very worried about you."

Sun Aidi looked up at Jiang Yuan, her eyelashes glistening with tears, her red eyes filled with confusion. "Sister, how do you know me?"

Jiang Yuan took out her ID from her pocket. "I'm good at communicating with animals. Tuan Tuan Duck has already told me about your situation."

"Sister...can you understand what Tuan Tuan Duck is saying?" Sun Aidi asked cautiously.

"Mm." Jiang Yuan nodded and reached out to rub her head. "You've had a hard time these past few days, Ai Di."

Sun Aidi stared at her blankly, her nose slightly sore, and her eyes growing hotter and hotter.

She pressed her lips tightly together, refusing to let the sob escape, her throat bobbing as she murmured, her voice nasal: "Sister..."

Jiang Yuan leaned down and hugged her, whispering gently in her ear, "Don't do anything foolish again. Live well and be good to yourself, okay?"

Sun Aidi didn't know how to answer.

She didn't know how to treat herself better.

She wasn't sure if she could survive.

It's so hard, really so hard.

"Are you hungry?" Jiang Yuan asked her.

Sun Aidi wanted to say she wasn't hungry, but her stomach started rumbling at that moment.

Her cheeks flushed red, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Jiang Yuan: "Would you like to eat a little?"

Tuan Tuan Duck: "Quack! Little Flute, have some!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Tuan Tuan Duck also wants you to have some."

Sun Aidi looked at Tuan Tuan Duck and nodded to her: "Okay."

Seeing that Sun Aidi was finally willing to come out of the room, Chen Meizhen breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Uncle Yong happily said while holding the spatula, "Daughter, you're up? Sit down for a moment, the zucchini stir-fried with pork will be ready soon, your favorite zucchini stir-fried with pork!"

Sun Aidi sat awkwardly on the sofa, glanced at Director Liu, and felt that he looked somewhat familiar.

Uncle Yong returned to the gas stove, only to slap his forehead in frustration, "My daughter still likes to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes, I forgot to buy tomatoes and eggs!"

He rushed out, taking off his apron as he said, "Meizhen, I need to go downstairs to buy tomatoes to make scrambled eggs."

Chen Meizhen stood up and stopped him, feeling both helpless and heartbroken. "Ayong, wake up! She's not Chuchu, she's not our daughter."

"You're talking nonsense!" Uncle Yong suddenly turned fierce. "She is Chuchu, our daughter! I've found our daughter!"

Chen Meizhen's eyes reddened with anger, and she choked out, "Chu Chu has a mole on her left eyebrow, but she doesn't. She's not Chu Chu!"

Uncle Yong's expression froze, and he slowly turned his head to look at Sun Aidi.

She has no moles on her eyebrows.

"Why isn't there a mole?" Uncle Yong murmured. "Where's the mole? How did it disappear?"
