Chapter 1238: Chapter 1257: The Phone Call

After the phone connected, it was Zhang Fengmei who answered. Excited to hear Nan Fei’s voice, she incessantly asked if she was eating well, sleeping well, if she had lost weight, how she was getting along with her classmates. Winter had arrived, and the weather was cold, so she needed to wear more clothes.

Don’t forget to wear your cotton-padded jacket and trousers.

After talking for quite some time, she handed the phone over to Jiang Yang, going on and on with various instructions and worries.

The siblings listened with joy, not finding Zhang Fengmei’s words bothersome no matter how much she said. Once she was almost done talking, Zhang Fengmei finally asked, "Where’s Zhuanzhuan? Let Zhuanzhuan take the phone."

The atmosphere of the call immediately went from warm to the bottom of an icy valley.

Jiang Yang stiffened his little face, turned, and walked away, indicating his refusal with his decisive actions.

Nan Fei hesitated, unsure what to say at the moment.

"What’s the matter? Did something happen to Zhuanzhuan?" As soon as she heard it, Zhang Fengmei felt something was off, "Or did you two have a fight?"

"Uh..." Nan Fei hesitated for a moment, uncertain whether her parents could accept Zhuanzhuan’s changes, and carefully said, "We had a fight, so she hasn’t come back to stay these past few days, probably staying at the school dormitory!"

"Why would you suddenly start fighting out of nowhere?" Zhang Fengmei was worried and advised, "Nan Fei, you’re the older sister, give Zhuanzhuan some leeway, she’s two years younger than you! If she’s being unreasonable, don’t stoop to her level."

Nan Fei took a deep breath and swallowed the bitterness in her heart, "Mom, I know. Rest assured, my temper is much better now, I wouldn’t quarrel with someone so easily!"

"I’m very aware of that, Nan Fei. Your temper has indeed improved a lot," breathed Zhang Fengmei with relief. "You are real sisters, there’s no hatred that lasts overnight; if you argue today, it should be over by tomorrow."

"Mom, are Zhuanzhuan and I really sisters?" Nan Fei’s heart was filled with bitterness, and she blurted out impulsively.

Zhang Fengmei was taken aback and said irritably, "Of course you’re real sisters, what are you thinking? How could you have such thoughts?"

Nan Fei hadn’t intended to speak, but now that she had, she wanted to get to the bottom of it. If she didn’t, she feared she might suffocate from the pressure. If Zhuanzhuan was truly her sister, why would she hate her so much? Why would she hate her family so much?

"Don’t let your imagination run wild; Zhuanzhuan is definitely your real sister, and you both are my biological children."

"What about Jiang Yang?" Nan Fei had already learned the truth from Bei Jiang.

To be honest, she still couldn’t accept that her own little brother had suddenly become someone else’s child. Their family was just an ordinary rural household; her parents were farmers with little education and no strong family background.

The plot twists of novels and TV dramas had never even crossed her mind in her dreams.

But who would have thought, overnight, there had been earth-shattering changes. Her brother... her brother who had suffered so much injustice in her past life, drowned in a river at a young age by someone’s hand, turned out to be Minister Wei’s youngest son?

This was... this was unbelievable.

Even if she didn’t want to believe it, she was clear that Bei Jiang wouldn’t lie to her.

"This, this...this..." Zhang Fengmei suddenly stuttered and couldn’t speak for a long time, finally asking softly, "Is Jiang Yang with you?"

"No, he didn’t want to hear about Zhuanzhuan, so he left."

"That’s good," Zhang Fengmei sighed with relief and said, "It’s true that Jiang Yang isn’t your biological brother, but Zhuanzhuan definitely is your real sister. Don’t let your thoughts wander, stop thinking of all these groundless ideas."
