Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 909: With You Always (54)
Yu Wen continued to augment what he was saying, "I heard that after you woke up, he wanted to come to you immediately, but I stopped him. I thought you would still refuse to see us as before. We didn’t expect you to come together this time, and we’re all very happy." In truth, Yu Wen wasn’t all that happy. Although she and Gu Lili were biological mother and daughter, the feeling was quite distant, as she had not raised or taken care of her. Therefore, there wasn’t much familial affection in her heart, but she still had to say these words.
Gu Lili originally wanted to tell them that the reason she came was entirely because it was hard to refuse with staff present at the time, but she suddenly thought of her father, Jun Pingsheng, who had passed away in the Heavenly World.
At this moment, she felt increasingly sorrowful, as neither the parents in the Heavenly World nor the ones in the Human World had any deep bond with her.
Ironically, her father in the Heavenly World was much better than her mother, while in the Human World, the father’s remorse seemed far more genuine than the mother’s, appearing not to be mere pretense.
Some people do wrong things and don’t feel they’ve done any wrong.
Some people do wrong things, know they’ve done wrong, and in fact, it’s better than the first type. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Indeed, I’m not interested in revealing who my biological parents are, as it holds no significance for me." She gazed at the couple, "It’s better to keep it buried in each other’s hearts forever, never allowing this matter to be exposed to the light; it’s better for everyone."
Yu Wen hurried to say, "That’s also good."
Yin Qi glanced at her and then said to Gu Lili, "The choice is in your hands. You have the autonomy to reveal this connection whenever you wish. If your master were still alive, I would really want to kneel before her and thank her for raising you and educating you so well. She is truly remarkable."
"I also think she’s remarkable. Women with the dignity of my master are rare. Although I never went to school for a single day, all the knowledge others learned at school I learned under her teachings. What my master gave me wasn’t material wealth but the treasures of independent personality and spiritual wealth. In my eyes, she is my biological mother, and no one can replace her. They say the grace of upbringing outweighs the grace of birth, and it’s true. If you don’t want a child, don’t give birth. In the animal world, when a young monkey dies, the mother monkey clings to it and doesn’t let go. The familial bond among animals is so strong, yet as higher animals, humans are sometimes not even as good as monkeys, which is also sad. It’s late now, and we should head back."
"Let me see you off," Yin Qi had just said when Gu Lili politely declined, "You are the President; it wouldn’t be appropriate for you to see us off. Please, stay here."
Watching them leave arm in arm, Yu Wen said, "She can afford not to acknowledge us now because of a man like Long Yubei by her side and her own career. If she were destitute, could she still say such confident words?"
"Others might not say such things if they were poor, but I don’t think she would. Her master was a person of great dignity, and Lili was influenced by her since childhood. How could she abandon her inner principles for fame and fortune? She has been that kind of person from the beginning to the end."
"While watching the live broadcast, my heart almost jumped out of my chest, for fear that she would reveal the truth directly to the public." Remembering this, Yu Wen still felt lingering fear.
"Dad, Mom," said Yin Chengyi, crossing the threshold with her brother. "Why did you invite those two over for dinner at our house?"
Yu Wen replied, "Naturally, we have our reasons."
