Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 462 - 443: A Sense of Deja Vu
Lin Banxia never expected Lin Shiyi to be so bold, to actually show up at the pear garden’s entrance and steal something from her.
What she stole was the keepsake her mother had given her—the pocket watch.
What does she want with that pocket watch? Could it be that she knows something?
A sudden wave of unease surged in her heart.
But right now, she didn’t have the time to question Lin Shiyi’s motives.
Lowering her head to look at the test result in her hand, Lin Banxia’s heart calmed slightly.
Lin Shiyi taking the pocket watch had already left Lin Banxia with a bad feeling, so she had to rush to her mother’s company to see her quickly.
She didn’t want to let things drag on anymore. Now that she already knew about her mother, she had no reason to hold back.
She arrived at the building’s entrance.
Lin Banxia’s feelings were a mix of excitement, agitation, and deep complexity.
"Lin Banxia, what are you doing here?" Just as she was preparing to head to the front desk, a startled voice rang out.
Lin Banxia turned around to see Mu Jiyang hurriedly entering with two other people trailing behind him.
"I’m here to see Mr. Cheng. Can you take me up to her? Please, I have something very important to tell her." Seeing her brother, Lin Banxia’s face lit up with joy as she pleaded.
Mu Jiyang stared at her blankly, confused. "Why are you looking for my mom? What’s so important?"
"Yes, very important." Gazing at her brother’s face, Lin Banxia’s eyes began to well up with tears.
Mu Jiyang furrowed his brow and warned her, "You better really have something important. If not, I’ll throw you down from up there myself."
Because of her connection to Chu Tingting, his romantic rival, he still viewed her with suspicion.
"You wouldn’t throw me." Lin Banxia broke into a cheerful smile, her joy evident.
Mu Jiyang gave her a contemptuous look and said coldly, "Follow me, then."
Lin Banxia glanced at him gratefully and hurriedly followed after him.
In the elevator, Mu Jiyang still scrutinized her with several cautious glances.
Lin Banxia paid no mind to his guarded stare.
Her heart was surging like tidal waves—excited, nervous, and joyful all at once.
The elevator arrived at the floor, and Lin Banxia’s steps trembled slightly.
Mu Jiyang noticed her nervousness and couldn’t help but ask, "What are you really here for?"
At that moment, Lin Banxia found herself standing at the door to the CEO’s office. She turned back and gave Mu Jiyang a sweet smile. "I’m here to find my biological mother."
Mu Jiyang was instantly stunned by her words.
Soon after, Lin Banxia raised her hand to knock on the door.
Mu Jiyang immediately grabbed her wrist. "You... Are you the sister we lost over twenty years ago?"
Lin Banxia’s eyes stung as she softly uttered, "Big Brother!"
"Come on in with me!" Mu Jiyang peered at her closely for a moment, then suddenly realized her eyes were exactly like their mother’s youthful ones, bright and glimmering.
Holding onto her wrist, Lin Banxia hurriedly pushed open the door. At the desk, Cheng Roning, wearing glasses, looked up at the two intruders with astonishment.
For the first time, Lin Banxia stared at her mother at such close proximity. Cheng Roning, upon seeing her, also slowly reached up to take off her glasses.
Ji Muyang was already exclaiming in delight, "Mom, my sister’s come to see you!"
Cheng Roning’s heart gave a fierce jolt, her eyes filled with both joy and tears.
Lin Banxia looked at her mother, and her eyes instantly became watery as well.
"You... You’re my daughter? Have we met before?" Cheng Roning gazed at Lin Banxia, feeling that she looked immensely familiar.
Lin Banxia nodded, tears streaming down. "Yes, we’ve met! A few months ago!"
