The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite-Chapter 335 - 222

“Please be aware.”
When Shen Jingxiu spoke these words, his tone could only be described as cold and unfeeling.
But Xu Jie didn’t seem to mind this at all, nor did it appear to provoke any strong objection from him.
He simply nodded, “Understood, I understand everything you’ve said.”
After choking back tears for a moment, Xu Jie looked in Wenyan’s direction.
“Wenyan, may I have a few words with you?”
“Of course. What do you want to talk about?” Wenyan turned around, looking directly at Xu Jie.
Wenyan stared at the half of the face that was visible, showing only the eyes and forehead, and couldn’t associate it with the handsome and youthful face in the photograph, which bore such a striking resemblance to her own.
Xu Jie seemed to read the meaning in Wenyan’s gaze, so he put his hat back on and sighed.
“I’ve already changed beyond recognition, haven’t looked in a mirror for decades, I’ve forgotten what I used to look like. But don’t worry, I won’t frighten you. If you’re scared, I won’t let you see.”
“What I want to say is, no matter what the results of the hair test are, you are always an independent individual, and I respect any decisions you make. I won’t interfere with your life, please be assured of that.”
“It seems that your two brothers have taken very good care of you, and I’m glad, thank you!! I’m really very grateful!”
Having said this, Xu Jie deeply bowed to Shen Jingxiu and Shen Jingchuan.
Shen Jingchuan and Shen Jingxiu exchanged glances and immediately helped Xu Jie to his feet.
“Don’t be like this! We and Wenyan are a family; it’s only right for us to care for and look after each other, no need for thanks.”
“Great kindness is beyond words of thanks, but I have no better way to repay you. Your politeness shows that you are both good and kind-hearted people. I would indeed like to personally thank your parents for taking in Wenyan. But perhaps I have no place to do so, and maybe they have no need to know about my existence. In any case, I respect any decision Wenyan makes.”
The meaning of Xu Jie was clear.
That is, even if the paternity test proved that he was Wenyan’s biological father, Wenyan could choose not to acknowledge him, and he would not object.
Shen Jingchuan was uncertain how Wenyan felt about this, but he thought it was quite good.
After all, so many years had passed; there was really no need for recognition.
If it weren’t for Wen Chengcai causing such a scene, maybe Wenyan would never have thought about looking for her father in her lifetime.
Shen Jingchuan felt that this outcome was quite satisfying.
He always spoke his mind, “Uncle Xu, it’s best that you can think like this. If there’s any other difficulty in your life, just let us know, and I and my brother will make sure to fulfill your needs.”
“Thank you.” Xu Jie shook his head, “I don’t have any difficulty in my life. I was injured at work, so my medical fees are all covered by the government and my employer. Even though I’ve left my original unit, I still receive a monthly stipend. Living here is my personal choice.”
“I have a house in my hometown, and I could perfectly live a life of comfort if I wanted to. It’s just that I have a fondness for this place, and memories, so I chose to stay. I don’t need any subsidies from you. I just hope that my appearance doesn’t bring any negative impact on Wenyan’s life and career.”
“However, I do have two requests.”
Xu Jie looked at Wenyan again.
Wenyan’s heart was in turmoil, a tangled mess; she had no idea how to handle this relationship.

She could only respond passively.
“What requests? Please go ahead.”
“May I add your contact information? I won’t contact you randomly.”
“Sure.” Wenyan suddenly remembered the previous time at the police station, “Last time I wanted to save your number, and you were reluctant. What’s your phone number? I’ll call you.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Wenyan took out her phone, Xu Jie immediately recited his phone number.
After exchanging mobile numbers, Xu Jie started to choke up again as he spoke.
“Could you tell me where your mother’s grave is? I would like to visit her.”
“That… To be honest, that question stumps me. I don’t know. After I went to my new home, I never went to look. My memories before going to the orphanage are very vague. But I can look into it, and I’ll let you know once I find out; I have your contact now, after all.”
“Okay, good.”
“Well, then, I’ll return this pocket watch to you for now.” Wenyan held out her hand and passed the pocket watch back to Xu Jie.
