Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Tan Ming took the money and went to look for her aunt. She successfully convinced her aunt to go overseas. After all, in terms of psychological treatment, overseas facilities had more medical experience.
When the two of them separated, they were in tears. When Tan Ming was about to drown, her aunt became the light that saved and raised her for many years.
As for her aunt, back then, when she was seriously ill and abandoned by her family and lover, only her eldest niece, who was not even related to her by blood, did not give up. She obtained the money and insisted that she go overseas for treatment. At that moment, Tan Ming had also become the light of salvation for her.
However, Tan Ming did not want to go into detail about these things. After all, it was all in the past. If she said it now, it would serve no use other than make her parents sad.
Tan Ming avoided the main point and continued, “After that, I lived with my aunt. Those were the happiest years I’ve lived in the Tan family. However, during my third year of junior high school, her health wasn’t good. Later, she went overseas to treat her illness. Thinking about it, we haven’t seen each other for many years. We only kept in touch through our phones and social media.”
After listening to Tan Ming’s story, Li Mei and Jiang Hai were very grateful to this aunt they had never met before. “If it weren’t for the fact that we can’t expose your identity now, your father and I would have thanked her in person no matter what! If she hadn’t protected you back then, I don’t know what that vicious little b*tch Tan Si would have done to you!”
Tan Ming also hoped that the two people who loved her would meet soon. She felt that her aunt and mother’s personalities were very compatible as friends. “Mom, don’t worry. There will be a chance to get to know each other.”
When the Jiang couple found out about Tan Ming’s motive for going to Xiyun, they had an idea and decided to leave a good impression. Although they couldn’t meet for the time being, it didn’t stop them from expressing their feelings first.
Jiang Hai said excitedly to Tan Ming, “Daddy and Mommy will go with you!”
Tan Ming didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Dad, Mom, I’ll only be there for two days. You don’t have to worry about my safety.”
Jiang Hai waved his hands repeatedly. “That’s not the problem. You still don’t know, right? Our Jiang family’s hometown is in Xiyun. Our family has mines and forests in Xiyun and Myanmar. Because they produce jewelry, jade, and precious wood, they arc famous all over the world. Your grandfather has long invested in many industries there.”
Tan Ming was still shocked by the fact that Xiyun was actually her hometown. She was completely shocked by the investment scope mentioned by Jiang Hai. Now, she could even say that her family had a mine.
Li Mei stood up happily and said, “It’s all our family’s things, and it’s your aunt’s professional hobby. Then we have to express our gratitude and pick some good things. It just so happens that we can bring you to pay respects to our ancestors. When they find out in the netherworld that you’ve been found, they’ll definitely be happy for us!”
Jiang Hai was also excited when he talked about going back to his hometown to pay his respects. “Yes, yes, yes! It’s not easy for us to go back. Let’s stay for another two days. I’ll get someone to fly that helicopter here immediately. Our helicopter is very comfortable!”
Tan Ming may have never been on one before, but had heard enough about them. How could this helicopter be comfortable? She had seen people who had sat on it say online that it was especially loud!
Tan Ming was worried that the two babies would not be able to adapt to the sound. However, her parents had such good intentions, so she could not reject them. She planned to wait and see when the time came. If they could not stop crying, she would cover their ears with earmuffs.
It could only be said that poverty limited her imagination. Everything that Tan Ming was worried about disappeared after seeing the helicopter.
The next morning, the entire family began to pack their things.
Li Mei entered Tan Ming’s room and saw her picking out clothes. “An’an, there are a lot of your clothes at home. You don’t have to take so many. The main thing is to prepare Jiang Yi and Jiang Yu’s clothes. Children like to use what they’re used to. They’re not used to changing into new ones.”
Tan Ming asked in confusion, “My clothes?”
Li Mei looked at Tan Ming, but her thoughts drifted elsewhere. “After you get lost, your father and I would still prepare clothes, shoes, and hats for you every year. Every season, we would refresh your closet.”
Tan Ming looked a little moved. She pulled Li Mei’s hand and Li Mei came back to her senses.
The atmosphere was a little melancholic because of the memories. Tan Ming pretended to be relaxed and pouted as she said in frustration, “Then wouldn’t I have so many clothes that I can’t wear them all! After I went to university, my height and figure haven’t changed. I’ve been able to wear all the same clothes for the past seven years. You still keep buying clothes for me. Oh my god, if I count it, I think I’ll have to wear three sets a day for several years before I can finish wearing them..”
