Chapter 153 - 153 150 Cant Avoid it Anymore (Part 2)
Chapter 153: Chapter 150: Can’t Avoid it Anymore (Part 2) Chapter 153: Chapter 150: Can’t Avoid it Anymore (Part 2) Mu Chenyan had started preparing for dinner at two in the afternoon, but she was not the main cook; she had called the helper from the villa over.
There was no helping it, if she truly did the cooking, she could only guarantee it would be cooked through.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t practiced seriously, but cooking… really was too difficult, she couldn’t learn it!
The three Brother Yu Hengs probably inherited this trait from her, every one of them, kitchen killers.
“Madam, is there too much meat prepared? There are only a few vegetarian dishes, won’t it be too greasy?”
Mu Chenyan glanced at the spread on the counter—ribs, chicken wings, steaks, large shrimps, scallops…, and the pigeon soup simmering in the clay pot. Jiajia loved meat and disliked vegetables when he was little, so when she got nervous, she bought all meat.
She wouldn’t have noticed if the helper hadn’t mentioned it.
“I bought vegetables.”
At that moment, Yu Heng walked in with a bag, handed it to the auntie, and said, “Bought it from the supermarket downstairs, just stir-fry them as you see fit.”
After the mother and son left the kitchen, Mu Chenyan started worrying about the name change again.
Yu Zexiao was still haggling with Tan Min over the divorce proceedings, but since there was a paternity test involved, his victory was a sure thing; however, how could he be satisfied with just winning?
Tan Min had spent quite a bit of money enjoying life with him over the years, but it was impossible to believe that she hadn’t saved some for herself.
Yu Zexiao intended to pry out whatever she had stashed away in secret and kick her out empty-handed.
So up to now, they still hadn’t gotten their divorce certificate, which made Mu Chenyan very impatient.
She was waiting for the two of them to cleanly split so she could proceed with the Yu Family’s asset distribution, and then, she needed to divorce Yu Zekun as well.
She really didn’t want to spend another day on the same household registration book with him.
“You should press your second uncle about it, it’s about time. Once Jiajia arrives, I need to discuss the name change with her, and the household registration…”
She knew that college students had their residency registered at their universities when they enrolled, but her original residency was still in Jianglin Village, Jianghai Town, Yunzhou; just thinking about being tied to that couple in this respect made her extremely uncomfortable.
It would have been one thing if they had been kind to Jiajia over the years, but the reality was the opposite, which gnawed at her with fury!
So this had to be done as soon as possible. Then, she could move Jiajia’s residency to hers, legitimize the asset distribution, and also conveniently transfer all her own assets under her name.
The mother and son were discussing this when they heard a knock on the front door.
“Jiajia arrived? Yu Ci really always forgets her keys…”
Mu Chenyan, flustered and exasperated, rushed to open the door, only to see a face she did not want to see.
“What are you doing here? Is there something you need?”
She withdrew her smile in a second, blocking the entrance and said impatiently to Yu Zekun, “Whatever it is, say it here, and leave quickly after you’re done. We’re all busy tonight, quite busy.”
Yu Zekun was taken aback, “You…” How could she be so extremely unreasonable? Not even letting him in the door!
Yu Heng was helpless inside the house; just his luck that his dad had come over.
Checking the time, Yu Ci should be back with Jiajia by now.
It seemed unavoidable to confront the situation today.
Indeed, before Mu Chenyan could rush Yu Zekun out, Yu Ci arrived with Song Jiawen, and Yu Feng, who had just gotten off work and happened to bump into them downstairs, the three of them came out of the elevator together.
Yu Zekun turned his head and immediately saw the girl standing between his two sons.
Jet-black eyes, delicate brows and eyes, snow-white skin…
Jiajia!
Even though he wasn’t a qualified father, she was still his child after all. Song Jiawen resembled him quite a bit, and he recognized her almost instinctively.
“Xiaosi…”
Yu Zekun stepped forward two steps in surprise, only to see Yu Ci step sideways to block in front of Song Jiawen, keeping a stern face and not speaking, but firmly preventing any closeness.
“Yu Ci, what are you doing?”
Yu Zekun glared at him angrily, “Move aside, I want to talk to Xiaosi.”
“Talk? Didn’t you use to love talking to Yu Xin the most? Since you’ve already forgotten Xiaosi, there’s no need to now put on a show of father-daughter affection. It’s quite fake.”
Standing behind Yu Ci, Song Jiawen’s expression also cooled upon hearing his words.
“You… didn’t I not know before, if I had known…”
“There are no ifs in this world. If there were, I would also like to ask you, if it wasn’t for you insisting on bringing Yu Xin home to raise her, could Xiaosi possibly have been abandoned afterward? Could our grandmother have died because of this?”
Song Jiawen suddenly looked up; it was the first time she had heard that her grandmother’s death was related to her being abandoned!
Yu Feng watched from the side, capturing Song Jiawen’s expression in full view.
He put his arm around her shoulder, leading her past Yu Zekun. Song Jiawen kept her head half-lowered, without glancing his way at all.
Mu Chenyan watched the three siblings enter before loudly slamming the door shut.
The food in the kitchen was almost ready, with a pleasant aroma drifting out, making the entire house feel warm and lived-in.
…..
In the repair shop, the second brother was busy at work. Seeing Jiang Yan return alone, he even asked, “Where’s Jiajia?”
“She had something to do.”
Except for him, no one else currently knew about Song Jiawen’s background. It wasn’t a deliberate concealment; he simply didn’t know how to explain it.
After all, it was too convoluted.
The second brother assumed Song Jiawen had an appointment with classmates and didn’t think much of it.
He pointed out the computers he couldn’t fix to Jiang Yan and took out a small notebook with records for him to see.
“We’ve received quite a few obsolete ones these past few days. Can you see if they’re good for assembly? Today a freshman came over wanting to buy a second-hand one; I’ll sell it once you’ve put it together.”
The second brother had nothing else on his mind but collecting and selling computers. Luckily, there weren’t any other shops like theirs near the university, so business went rather smoothly.
“Oh, by the way, brother, there were a few calls today requesting on-site repairs, all from dormitory addresses at your school. You see… if you’re shy about it, I’ll go.”
Jiang Yan, busy with his hands, chuckled, “What’s there to be shy about? You underestimate your brother, huh? Give me the addresses; I’ll check each one out when I go back tonight.”
“All right, good!”
While they were absorbed in their work, a rather well-dressed, slightly overweight middle-aged woman stood at the entrance holding a bag of fruit and asked with a smile, “Hello, who is Little Baldy here?”
The second brother turned his head without any expression; today he was wearing a hat that covered the uneven black hair just starting to grow on his head.
Even so, she was still calling him Little Baldy?
He didn’t really want to deal with this woman.
Jiang Yan glanced at him and stood up with a smile, asking, “Auntie, may I help you with something?”
The woman looked at Jiang Yan’s thick black hair, then at the hat on the second brother’s head, and laughed, “So you don’t like being called Little Baldy, eh? It’s understandable, it’s not a nice nickname, I apologize. My father, who is Mr. Cheng in apartment 102 of building 16 behind us, he said you fixed his radio. But I heard from Brother Liu that it was Little Bald… that you took the radio to a radio repair shop and found someone specifically to fix it, right?”
Jiang Yan was unaware of this matter and turned to look at the second brother.
“Going to the trouble of fixing a radio and not even charging for it can’t be allowed. How much did it all cost? I have to pay.”
