Chapter 199: 077: Terrible Power, Confess Identity_8

Upon hearing those words, Mother Zhao fell silent instantly, her mouth only curling slightly, "You just can’t see eye to eye with me!"

Cui Nong couldn’t be bothered to argue with her mother, and continued by pulling out a thousand yuan and stuffing it into her hand, "My eldest sister loves fish, so buy a grouper tonight and make it for her, and don’t forget Xiao Wu’s favorite cold tripe salad! Your cooking is delicious, let them taste it tonight."

Although Mother Zhao had been a bit angry, she couldn’t help but smile at the last sentence, proudly responding, "My cooking is famous for being delicious in the village!"

Since her daughter had said so, she would reluctantly show off her cooking skills.

After lunch, Mother Zhao took her basket and went to the market to buy groceries.

In order to buy cheaper vegetables, Mother Zhao traveled far, taking a two-hour bus ride, to finally reach the East City Market.

The prices at East City Market were nearly half cheaper than those in the city proper, and Mother Zhao bought a lot of vegetables. Just as she was about to leave the market, her gaze was suddenly drawn to a missing child notice on the wall.

Missing girl Tang Qiushui, with a black and white photo on the left side.

Since Mother Zhao couldn’t read, she didn’t know that it was a missing child notice; she just felt the little girl in the photo looked familiar.

"Why do I feel like I’ve seen this little girl somewhere before?" Mother Zhao scratched her head.

This feeling was strange, as she felt an intense familiarity, yet she couldn’t recall where she’d seen her.

A few minutes later, Mother Zhao turned and left.

Even after getting on the bus, Mother Zhao couldn’t remember who the little girl resembled.

That evening.

Mother Zhao prepared a table full of sumptuous dishes.

After dinner.

Cui Nong fetched a delicate cake from the kitchen refrigerator.

Lin Wu, not knowing where she had gotten it from, walked up to Lin Guixiang with a bunch of carnations, "Mom, happy birthday."

Birthday?

Lin Guixiang was initially startled, and then remembered that today was indeed her own birthday, taking the flowers with both hands.

"Happy birthday, big sister."

"Happy birthday, big auntie!" Lin Guodong, holding a birthday cap, walked over and looked up at Lin Guixiang, "Big auntie, lower your head, I’ll put the birthday hat on you."

Lin Guixiang bent down.

Lin Guodong went on tiptoe to place the birthday hat on her, then began singing the birthday song.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

Standing there, Lin Guixiang was illuminated by the candlelight, which brightened both her face and her heart.

Cui Nong said with a smile, "Big sister, make a wish quickly."

Lin Guixiang clasped her hands together and began to wish.

She hoped her daughter would get into a good university, have a future as bright as brocade, meet someone who knew warmth and care, and not follow in her footsteps.

After making her wish, Lin Guixiang blew out the candles.

Watching his eldest sister blow out the candles, Lin Bingqiang tugged on Cui Nong’s sleeve and whispered, "What about the second sister? Didn’t you tell her that today is the eldest sister’s birthday?"

Cui Nong replied, "I did, but she’s really busy today, working overtime at the supermarket."

Hearing this, Lin Bingqiang frowned slightly.

Money is never-ending.

Yet, Lin Guimei didn’t even show up for Lin Guixiang’s birthday.

It seemed that his second sister had really changed.

After the cake was eaten, Lin Bingqiang asked his mother-in-law to take Lin Guodong downstairs to play.

Watching Mother Zhao leave with his son, Lin Bingqiang then turned to Lin Guixiang, carefully choosing his words before speaking, "Big sister, Xiao Wu, I have something to tell you."

Upon hearing this Lin Guixiang immediately put down her glass, "Qiangzi, are you facing some difficulty?"

Lin Guixiang had sensed that her brother had been acting strangely recently.

She thought perhaps she had been overthinking.

"It’s not that I’m facing difficulty," Lin Bingqiang continued, "it’s about you."

Lin Guixiang was puzzled.

About her?

What could it be?

Why did her brother look so troubled?

Lin Bingqiang took a deep breath, looking at Lin Guixiang, "Big sister, before I talk about this, I want you to know, no matter what happens in the future, you will always be my sister Lin Bingqiang, my sister by blood, and we will always be one family!"

Hearing this, Cui Nong became even more nervous, her hands gripping Lin Bingqiang’s, "Qiangzi, tell your big sister the truth, what happened!?"

Even Lin Wu was puzzled, wondering what could make Lin Bingqiang speak such words.

For a moment, Lin Bingqiang was at a loss for words.

It seemed that no matter how he said it, it wouldn’t be right.

After a long hesitation, Lin Bingqiang finally said, "Big sister, I only found out about this a few days ago. You, you were actually adopted by our parents..."
