Chapter 7

Every time she went to the capital, it was for Su Sui. Every time, she came full of expectations and returned home full of disappointment. She saw Su Sui living better and better, but she also experienced the estrangement between her and Su Sui.

Unexpectedly, in this life, she would settle down in the capital as the adopted daughter of the old couple. Not long after the three got off the plane, Grandpa Ling received a call. As soon as he answered the call, his brows frowned after hearing a few sentences.

When he hung up, Grandma Zhang asked worriedly, “What happened?”

Grandpa Ling looked at Su Meng, “The person who called me is the person in charge of the disaster area. Your sister refused to be adopted by the couple and no other suitable adoptive family showed up. She said she wanted to come to you. But I told the person in charge that we had arrived in Beijing.”

Su Meng was a little surprised. She didn’t expect Su Sui to be so assertive at the age of thirteen. But she actually didn’t know her sister very well. She was three years older than Su Sui, so she always treated her like a child. But in fact, Su Sui was much smarter than her. With her current knowledge, by looking back at the previous matters related to Su Sui, she could say that Su Sui was actually quite scheming.

Grandma Zhang asked worriedly, “Then what about your sister?”

Su Meng bit her lower lip, “My sister is really cute. I think someone will be willing to adopt her. Let her wait patiently.”

Grandma Zhang nodded, “Okay, let’s wait.” She turned to comfort Su Meng and said, “After you settle down here, you can visit your sister during vacation.”

Su Meng smiled, lowered her eyes, and said, “Okay.” As soon as they left the airport, there was already a special car waiting for them at the gate. The driver helped them move their luggage to the trunk. The driver was very close to the old couple Ling. While driving, he chatted with the two who were seated at the back, “Master, is this your adopted child?”

Lao Ling sighed, “Yes, this child lost her parents and relatives at a young age.”

The driver asked, “Have all the relevant procedures been completed?”

“It’s done.”

The driver smiled, showing his white teeth, “That’s good. You old couple will have someone to accompany you.”

Grandma Zhang looked lost, “Speaking of which, Ah Yu hasn’t been home for almost a year.”

Grandpa Ling also missed his son in his heart. He spoke for his son, “Isn’t it because my son is nervous about his studies and has no time to return to China? When he graduates from university, he will be back to China and serve the motherland.”

Grandma Zhang said with emotion, “It will take many years for my son to graduate.”

The driver hurriedly assured them, “The time will pass fast.”

Grandma Zhang also smiled, “It will. But when Ah Yu returns to China, the old man and I will be really old.” Su Meng listened quietly to the conversation.

Ling Yucheng was the old son of the old couple. When they gave birth to Ling Yucheng, they were over 40. So when the old couple retired, their son was studying abroad. And as far as Su Meng knew, Ling Yucheng would study abroad until he graduated with a master’s degree before returning to China.

If she remembered correctly, Ling Yucheng should be in high school and it would take three or four years before he returns to China. Grandma Zhang couldn’t stop talking when she thought of her precious son, “When I go home, I will make a video call to Ah Yu and tell him that the old man and I have adopted a well-behaved girl.”
