Chapter 691 has already confessed to Mingfei.

The deer chasing its dreams nodded: "The murderer has been caught. I heard that he had a fight with his family and deliberately came out to take revenge on society. How despicable!"

“Arguing with family members and then hurting others, that’s too twisted a mind,” Jiang Yuan said, frowning.

The deer chasing its dreams curled its lip: "People like that might as well just die."

It may sound harsh, but that's the truth.

After the video call ended, Lu, who was chasing his dreams, transferred 288 yuan to Jiang Yuan directly via private message.

Dream Chaser Deer: [Teacher Jiang, this is a small red envelope to thank you for your help. /heart]

Jiang Yuan returned the money: 【Lulu, I appreciate the sentiment, but keep the red envelope to buy Wangcai something delicious.】

She put down her phone just as there was a knock on the study door from the outside.

Jiang Yuan went over to open the door and saw Zhan Zhan standing at the door with his little head tilted up.

"Auntie!"

She smiled and asked, "Zhanzhan, what's wrong?"

The little one replied, "Auntie, Sister Xu is here, downstairs."

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile, took Zhanzhan's little hand, and said, "Let's go downstairs together."

In the living room on the first floor, Xiao Xu sat on the sofa with various desserts and snacks laid out in front of her.

Deng Rui looked at her with a loving smile: "Xiao Xu, come visit us often when you have time. It's so nice to have a lively time together."

"Okay," Xiao Xu nodded in agreement. "I'll come often when I have time."

"But you're not allowed to bring anything next time you come, so as not to waste your money," Deng Rui said reproachfully. "Here, try the egg tarts and cookies I baked myself."

Jiang Yuan walked over and said with a smile, "My mom has recently taken a liking to baking. She's been enthusiastically baking egg tarts and cookies every day."

"That's great, I'll have something to do every day." Xiao Xu picked up a bear-shaped biscuit, took a bite, and gave a thumbs up. "It smells so good, Aunt Rui, you're amazing."

Deng Rui had been receiving compliments a lot lately, but she still didn't get tired of them. She felt sweet inside, but on the surface she remained modest and said, "It's alright. It's not that I'm amazing, it's just that these things aren't difficult to do."

Xiao Xu said earnestly, "For someone like me who can't even wrap dumplings properly, it's really difficult."

"Xiao Xu, you don't know how to make dumplings?" Deng Rui asked in surprise.

Xiao Xu nodded, somewhat embarrassed: "Yes, I don't know how to make dumplings."

Deng Rui slapped her thigh and said directly, "Then let's make dumplings tonight. I promise I can teach Xiao Xu how to make dumplings."

"Great!" Xiao Xu's eyes lit up suddenly. "That's wonderful!"

The whole family got together to make dumplings in the evening.

Xiao Xu noticed that Zhan Zhan and Mo Mo's dumplings looked better than hers.

She made up her mind to learn how to make dumplings.

Deng Rui patiently taught her step by step, and Xiao Xu gradually learned to make beautiful dumplings.

After dinner, Jiang Yuan took Xiao Xu for a walk in the villa area.

It was quiet all around. Xiao Xu looked up at the moon, which was half-hidden by dark clouds, pursed her lips, and said softly, "Yuan Yuan, the atmosphere in your home is so nice."

"Come visit often when you have time." After saying that, Jiang Yuan suddenly remembered what Wisdom Tree had posted today and quickly took out her phone.

There was still no reply from the other party.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Jiang Yuan's eyes.

Just then, the phone screen flickered slightly, and Deng Rui's call came in.

Jiang Yuan paused for two seconds before answering the phone, "Mom, what's wrong?" Deng Rui's anxious voice came through the receiver, "Yuan Yuan, Liu Wenying called me and said that she just confessed to Mingfei, but she couldn't accept it and ran away. Now she doesn't know where she is."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan gently comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, I'll call and ask Shuyu."

"Okay, you can ask first." Deng Rui's voice trembled slightly with tears. "Remember to tell Mom if you hear anything."

"I know." Jiang Yuan hung up the phone and immediately dialed Zhou Shuyu's number.

The phone rang for a while, and then Zhou Shuyu's gentle voice came through, "Yuanyuan, have you eaten?"

Judging from her tone, Song Mingfei probably didn't contact her.

Jiang Yuan's voice became more serious, "Shuyu, I've already eaten. I just heard from my mom that Aunt Wenyin has already confessed to Mingfei."

"Mingfei already knows the truth?" Zhou Shuyu asked in surprise. "Is Mingfei alright?"

"I don't know yet." Jiang Yuan frowned slightly. "Aunt Wenyin called my mom and said that Fei ran away. I don't know if she will contact you later."

“Okay, I understand,” Zhou Shuyu said calmly. “I’ll wait and see. If she hasn’t contacted me in half an hour, I’ll call her myself.”

“Okay, we’ll keep in touch.” Jiang Yuan hung up the phone and met Xiao Xu’s concerned gaze.

Xiao Xu asked, "Yuan Yuan, what happened?"

“My mother’s biological daughter, Song Mingfei, has returned to China,” Jiang Yuan said briefly. “Just now, her mother, Liu Wenying, told her the truth.”

Xiao Xu's eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly realized what was going on. "So Shuyu is a mutual friend of yours and Mingfei's?"

“Yes.” Jiang Yuan said, then dialed Deng Rui’s number again, “Mom, Mingfei hasn’t contacted Shuyu. I’ll let you know if I have any news later.”

After she hung up the phone, Xiao Xu said, "Yuan Yuan, let's go back and check on Aunt Rui first."

"Alright." Jiang Yuan nodded, and the two turned and walked back.

The night was deep, and the wind whistled through the leaves.

Wearing slippers, Song Mingfei ran out of the villa area while crying.

She wished it were all a dream...

The slippers were difficult to run in, and Song Mingfei tripped over them.

She fell to the ground, her delicate palms scraped raw by the rough asphalt, and fine blood seeped out.

But she seemed oblivious to the pain, supporting herself on the ground as she got up and continued running forward.

The sound of the wind faded away, leaving behind only a sorrowful conversation echoing in her ears.

"Feifei, there's something Mommy has been wanting to tell you for the past few days, but I just haven't known how to bring it up."

"Mommy, what's wrong? We're family, you can speak your mind."

"Feifei, you must remember that no matter what happens, I will always be your mommy, and my love for you will never change."

"Mommy, why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

“Feifei, actually, we are not related by blood. When you were born…”

"No blood relation? Mommy, what does that mean? I don't understand."

Liu Wenying stroked her daughter's long hair affectionately and explained gently, "Feifei, although we are not biological mother and daughter, I know that our relationship will not be affected by this, so... I think you have the right to know the truth."

Song Mingfei was stunned for a long time before she managed to force a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Mommy, you're kidding me, right? How could we not be biological mother and daughter?"

"Feifei, Mommy never expected this to happen." Liu Wenying's eyes were full of regret, and she choked up as she said, "Fate just loves to play tricks on people like this."

Song Mingfei was already in tears.

She didn't know how to face it and ran out of the villa in a breakdown.
