Chapter 679 One cannot speak casually

Zhou Shuyu stopped in front of the two of them, leaned down and smiled, "Zhanzhan, Xiaoguang, you've grown taller in just over half a month!"

Zhanzhan's eyes lit up. "Really?"

Xiaoguang excitedly raised his hand and touched his head, "I've grown taller!"

“Really.” Zhou Shuyu reached out and gently pinched Xiaoguang’s cheek. “Xiaoguang has not only grown taller, but he’s also gained weight.”

"That's great!" Xiaoguang exclaimed excitedly. "I've grown taller and stronger! I'll be a grown-up soon!"

Zhou Shuyu's smile deepened. "I bought you some delicious food. Shall we go in and eat?"

"Okay!" they agreed in unison.

Upon entering the living room, Jiang Yuan was already tidying up and waiting.

"Aunt Rui," Zhou Shuyu said with a smile, "are you knitting a sweater?"

"Shuyu's here. This is for Blueberry and the others." Deng Rui saw her put several bags on the table and take out some delicate pastries from them. "Shuyu, it's enough that you're here. You don't need to buy things every time."

"I bought these on the way." Zhou Shuyu took out the pastries. "Zhanzhan, Xiaoguang, try them. This is a new flavor."

Zhanzhan said obediently, "Thank you, Sister Shuyu. Let's go wash our hands first, and then call my sister and Sister Xiaocao to come down and eat together."

Xiaoguang nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Zhou Shuyu smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Okay, go quickly."

Jiang Yuan stood up and said, "Shuyu, let's go."

"I'll say hello to Xiaocao and Momo when they come down."

"it is good."

The riverside café was filled with a rich and mellow aroma. In the innermost booth, a woman wearing a light pink sweater tilted her head and quietly watched the scenery on the river.

There was also a cat carrier placed inside the seat.

As Jiang Yuan followed Zhou Shuyu closer, she suddenly felt that the woman looked somewhat familiar.

"Mingfei," Zhou Shuyu called softly.

Jiang Yuan paused abruptly, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Mingfei? Song Mingfei?

Upon hearing this, Song Mingfei turned around, stood up, and smiled: "Shuyu, Teacher Jiang, you've arrived."

She walked up to Jiang Yuan and extended her hand. "Hello, Teacher Jiang, I'm Song Mingfei. I'm so sorry to have troubled you to come all this way."

"No trouble at all." Jiang Yuan took her hand and smiled slightly. "It's nice to meet you. Just call me Jiang Yuan."

"Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony," Song Mingfei said with a smile. "Call me Mingfei."

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, Mingfei."

"Sit down and let's talk," Song Mingfei said, gesturing for the two to sit down.

“Okay.” Jiang Yuan nodded and sat down at the same time as Zhou Shuyu.

Song Mingfei raised her hand and called over a waiter to order coffee for the two of them.

She said softly, "I just got back to China these past two days, but I used to watch your live streams all the time while I was abroad, and I was always completely engrossed in them."

Jiang Yuan raised her eyebrows slightly: "The netizens' stories are quite interesting."

"Indeed, life is just like a play," Song Mingfei remarked.

Zhou Shuyu smiled and said, "Art comes from life."

After chatting for a while, the waiter brought over two cups of coffee.

Jiang Yuan took a couple of bites and then got down to business: "Mingfei, you told Shuyu you wanted to ask me for help with something. What is it?"

Song Mingfei's expression turned serious. "Recently, Mommy has often hidden in her room and cried by herself. I asked her what happened, but she wouldn't say. I'm very worried about her."

After saying that, she turned her head to look at the flight case next to her.

“Kitty is my mommy and my pet,” Song Mingfei explained. “I wanted to ask Jiang Yuan to ask Kitty if she knows why Mommy is always crying secretly.” Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan’s slender eyebrows furrowed slightly. “That’s a matter of your mother’s privacy. Are you sure you want to ask?”

“I didn’t want to know about my mother’s private affairs in this way, but…” Song Mingfei frowned, a hint of pain appearing on her face, “I’m really worried about my mother. I’m afraid she might do something drastic. One time I came home from get off work and found her cutting her wrists at home…”

If she had arrived home any later, she might not have survived.

This trip back to China was also in the hope that my mother could find a sense of belonging and security in her hometown.

"Is it that serious?" Zhou Shuyu frowned with concern. "Does your aunt have depression?"

“No.” Song Mingfei shook her head, her brows furrowed with worry. “I took her for a checkup, and she doesn’t have depression, which is why I’m even more worried. I’m afraid she might have something more serious…”

Jiang Yuan pursed her lips, a thought flashing through her mind.

Given Liu Wenying's situation, it's highly likely that she knew about that matter.

"Jiang Yuan, please," Song Mingfei pleaded, explaining, "I really didn't mean to pry into Mommy's privacy. I just want to know what I should do as her daughter."

Jiang Yuan sighed deeply without showing any emotion, "Alright, I'll give it a try."

"Thank you," Song Mingfei said gratefully. "Thank you, Jiang Yuan."

She took the calico Devon cat out of its carrier, stroked its head, and coaxed, "Kitty, this is Sister Yuan Yuan. Would you like to chat with her?"

"Meow? Sister Yuan Yuan?" Kitty stared at Jiang Yuan with her round cat eyes, "Meow recognizes you! You're the amazing person who can talk to animals!"

“Kitty, do you know me?” A smile appeared in Jiang Yuan’s eyes.

"Meow! I know you, Feifei often looks at you."

"I see." Jiang Yuan nodded. "Can I hug you?"

"Meow! Of course!" Kitty nodded her little head.

Seeing this, Song Mingfei took the initiative to hand Kitty to Jiang Yuan.

"Kitty is so good." Jiang Yuan stroked its fur and asked with a smile, "Kitty, do you play with Feifei more or with Feifei's mom more?"

"Meow! With Mommy!" Kitty replied. "Meow! Mommy's free, but Fifi's not!"

"Does Feifei have to go to work?"

"Meow! Yes!"

"I see." Jiang Yuan nodded, then asked, "Has Fei Fei's mother been in a bad mood lately, often hiding away and crying?"

Kitty nodded her little head: "Meow. Yes, Mommy is sad."

"Do you know why Mom is sad?"

"Meow meow meow!! Mimi isn't sure, but when Mimi hears her mother crying, she always says... My daughter is missing, why is God so cruel!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan's eyes suddenly darkened.

Sure enough.

Liu Wenying already knows the truth.

How did she know?

Si Heng said he would wait until Liu Wenying and Song Mingfei returned to China before telling them about it.

Song Mingfei looked at her worriedly, "Jiang Yuan, did Kitty say anything?"

Jiang Yuan pursed her lips, suddenly unsure how to tell her.

She is also confused right now, but she knows she can't just open her mouth.

The fact that Song Mingfei is not Liu Wenying's biological daughter should not be told to her by her in this way.

Jiang Yuan lowered her eyes, her lips moved slightly, and her tone was more apologetic, "Mingfei, I'm sorry, I can't help with this."

Upon hearing this, Song Mingfei's eyes darkened, and an undisguised disappointment appeared on her face.
