Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Chapter 53 - Meeting Ding Qiuyue (1)

The woman’s name is Ding Qiuyue. She married the second son from the Lang’s right after graduating college and had Lang Jinzhi.

Zhong Yuhuan had slowly found out about her aunt from her grandpa Ding.

Sitting in a private room of an elegant but small restaurant, they had just finished placing their order.

After the servers had left, Ding Qiuyue begin, “I heard dad said that you adopted two children from the social services for your mother.”

Zhong Yuhuan nodded, “Mm.”

“Were they registered after the Ding’s or the Zhong’s? Did Zhong Chi agree with that?”

“Under the Ding’s, but externally, they’re considered as part of the Zhong’s,” replied Zhong Yuhuan.

“Did your mother really leave such a will? To have you adopt two boys from the social agency for her?”

“Yes,” replied Zhong Yuhuan. Then, after a slight pause, she couldn’t help but say, “If you have something you want to say, why don’t you just tell me?”

“You have adopted two children who are not related to you…. Have you thought about the future?” Ding Qiuyue paused, cleaned her hands on a handkerchief and continued, “Your grandfather had his will done a few years back and his inheritance is to go to your mother and I, proportionally. Now that you have placed the two children under the Ding’s, then they’ll be considered heirs of your mother. Meaning, they will also receive part of the inheritance.”

That had confirmed what Zhong Yuhuan had in mind.

Yup!

She was here to talk about money.

Ding Qiuyue was worried that the two additional kids would be entitled to a part of the Ding’s money.

Zhong Yuhuan understood what she wanted to say, but she still put on a baffled look and asked, “And what is the problem with that?”

Ding Qiuyue was stunned for a little before she continued, “Handing out our money like this to someone unrelated, do you think that’s worth it?”

“Aunty, I don’t have a mother anymore. My dad has a new family and grandpa is not getting any younger. I don’t have any family to rely on anymore. They will become my family and be by my side in the future, of course it’s worth it.”

Ding Qiuyue almost found that funny. She said in a low voice, “Yuhuan, you’ve grown up in money so you don’t understand its importance. You will regret it in the future. What about your cousin and I? Aren’t we your family?”

“Both you and cousin are very busy people.”

“You can call us. If your cousin and I are busy, we will send our assistants to help you out.”

“But that’s not the same. They will be by my side all the time; when I am sad or unhappy, or when I need someone to share my joyful moments, they will be there… or do you think I can count on your assistants for those as well?” Zhong Yuhuan pursed her lips. If the woman in front of her wasn’t Ding Ruxue’s sister, she would have put it in a very different way.

Ding Qiuyue’s face turned cold, she said, “Okay, if that’s how you feel, I wouldn’t say anything else. But when you regret about this in the future, don’t say I didn't warn you.”

Zhong Yuhuan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, when I dreamed about my mom next time, I will let her know that aunty has been very nice to me.”

Ding Qiuyue froze a little on the spot.

Just then, the servers knocked on the door and came in with their dishes.

Zhong Yuhuan didn’t feel like eating anymore. She stood up and said, “Aunty, I don’t feel very well. I will excuse myself.”

“Don’t you want to eat first?”

“No, it’s alright,” said Zhong Yuhuan as she placed her hand over her stomach and walked out quickly. She did not even turn around to look at Ding Qiuyue again.

As soon as she walked outside of the restaurant, she texted Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan.

“Are you in class?”

She sent the message to the both of them.

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan were already in class. It was their English tutoring class today. When their phone beeped, they reached out to their phones almost at the same time.

They had very few contacts in their phones, just Zhong Yuhuan and a few classmates.

In order to prevent missing anything from Zhong Yuhuan, they have custom ringers for her and their phones were never set to silent mode. They just lowered the volume to almost only audible to them.
