Exposed

When Yu Hai saw the sweat on Yu Yan’s head, she hurriedly said to his wife, “The sun is high here, so let’s not talk in the courtyard anymore. Let’s help our daughter into the room first.”

After Yu Yan brought her adoptive parents to the dormitory, the two of them were relieved to see Yu Yan’s dormitory environment. They took out the nutritional supplements, dried m“eat, and various sweets, biscuits, and pastries they had brought. There were a total of three luggages, and the things they brought for Yu Yan accounted for two.

Li Xin asked Yu Hai to buy a chicken from the villagers and planned to make soup for Yu Yan to nourish herself. She took the laundry that Yu Yan had saved up for two to three days to wash, while Yu Yan lay in bed and ate snacks.

After Li Xin hung up the clothes, she hurriedly returned to the room and tidied up the things she had brought.

She suddenly realized that there was a wooden box in the wardrobe, so she took it out curiously. This frightened Yu Yan so much that she jumped up and took a few steps forward to snatch it.

Li Xin was stunned for a moment when she saw Yu Yan’s actions. Only then did Yu Yan realize how abrupt her actions were. The letters between Yu Yan and Duan Mei were inside. Yu Yan was worried that she would lose tem, so she specifically bought a wooden box and placed them inside, so she could read them from time to time.

Yu Yan was very angry that Li Xin had touched the box, but when she saw Li Xin’s expression, her anger was immediately extinguished. She only lowered her head and muttered, “Mom, this is my privacy.”

Li Xin also knew that her daughter needed her private space after she grew up, so she didn’t think too much about it. Although she was a little disappointed that her daughter was starting to keep secrets from her, she still smiled and said, “Alright, I won’t look.”

However, Li Xin suddenly realized that Yu Yan’s face was no longer as pale as before. It was very healthy and rosy. She didn’t look like she had just recovered from a serious illness at all, so she said in confusion, “Why is your complexion so much better after lying down?”

When Yu Yan heard this, she felt a little flustered, but then she thought of an excuse. “The weather is too hot. Perhaps that’s why my face is flushed. My chest still feels a little stuffy.”

Li Xin looked at Yu Yan suspiciously, but didn’t say anything else about it. “Lie down first. I’ll go to the kitchen to boil the chicken.”

As Yu Yan looked at her adoptive mother’s departing figure, she rolled her eyes and let out a sigh of relief. She was almost scared to death just now.

The person in charge of cooking today was Shu Ya. When she saw a middle-aged couple in the kitchen, she asked curiously, “Hello, who are you guys?”

Li Xin smiled and replied, “Hello, young lady. We’re Yu Yan’s parents. We came to the village to see her.”

When Shu Ya heard this, her eyes widened. She immediately thought of how Yu Yan had just reunited with her biological mother in this kitchen not long ago.

However, Shu Ya quickly hid her surprised expression. She smiled as she said calmly, “You guys are so good to Yu Yan. You guys even took leave to come over.”

When Li Xin saw Shu Ya’s surprised expression, she felt a little baffled. However, because they were not familiar with each other, it wasn’t appropriate to ask directly. She continued, “Isn’t Yu Yan sick? Her father and I were really worried, so we came over to take a look.”

When Shu Ya heard this, she didn’t think much of it. She comforted them with a smile, “Don’t worry too much. Although Yu Yan’s fever was a little high last time, fortunately, she was treated in time, so she was fine after two to three days. She even went to the county for a day on her day off last week.”

Shu Ya had good intentions and wanted to comfort them, but she didn’t expect to accidentally expose Yu Yan’s lie.

After Li Xin thought of the contents of the letter and Yu Yan’s appearance when they met just now, she was furious and didn’t even remember to put down the big spoon as she turned around and strode upstairs.

“Li Xin, don’t be so anxious. You’ll scare the child!” Yu Hai, who was washing vegetables at the side, couldn’t care less about the task at hand. After he wiped the water off his hand, he hurriedly followed.

Li Xin had always had a sharp tongue, but she was a softie at heart. However, when she put on a straight face, even if Yu Yan admitted her mistake on the spot, she wouldn’t feel repentant.

Yu Hai knew this mother and daughter’s tempers very well. He was afraid that their already tense relationship would become even worse.

Li Xin was an impatient person. As soon as she entered the dormitory, she questioned Yu Yan impatiently, “Yu Yan, you’ve learned to lie now!”

Yu Yan was rejoicing over avoiding a calamity and was thinking of making up an excuse to make her adoptive parents leave tomorrow. There were many people in the dormitory building, so she was also worried that someone would let it slip, but she never expected to be exposed so quickly.

When Yu Yan saw Li Xin’s expression, her mind went blank. She couldn’t think of any excuse.
