“I saw how pitiful you looked and handed you a bag of apples that I had just purchased. Then, you secretly trailed behind me and followed me for a long time. I couldn’t bear to send you away, so I brought you home with me. Let me see, how tall were you back then?” Shu Man’s mother gestured and estimated her adopted daughter’s height when they had first met.

Shu Man’s eyes widened as she looked at her mother in shock and disbelief. None of this seemed familiar to her at all and she had always thought that she had been legally adopted by her father and mother.

It turned out that she had been a child who had been picked up from the rubbish dump.

Shu Man’s mother wiped the tears from her eyes as these memories were enough to make her terribly upset.

She continued, “Due to my physical condition, I wasn’t able to have children so after discussions with your father, we decided you raise you as our daughter. I didn’t know how old you were and when I asked you. You claimed that you were six. I didn’t think that you looked like a six-year-old girl but I thought you were shorter than average due to poor nutrition, so I pulled some strings and got my connections to create some identification doc.u.ments for yourself. Thus, your year of birth is registered as 1995 on your identification papers and we made up your month of birth.”

Shu Man felt as though she was going to go crazy. She suddenly rose to her feet and looked at her mother in shock and surprise.

She couldn’t believe that her date of birth was not her actual date of birth. Where exactly had she come from?

“So, Man Man…” her mother said earnestly as she held her daughter’s hand, “I feel that you might be the younger sister Mrs. Ye is referring to.”

Shu Man frowned and the more she heard about this from her mother, the more absurd the situation seemed.

“But… mum…” she paused for a moment before she said, “I don’t have any evidence that I might be He Yiyi. My date of birth doesn’t match He Yiyi’s and I don’t have the jade pendant either so even if I truly am He Yiyi, no one would believe me since there’s no evidence. They might even think that I’m just a golddigger and send me away.”

Shu Man didn’t think that she was He Yiyi and she didn’t want to be Mrs. Ye’s younger sister either.

Many years had pa.s.sed and she wasn’t even sure why her biological parents had abandoned her but since she had been abandoned, the fact that they didn’t spend any effort searching for her showed that they didn’t love her that much.

She might have been sold or abandoned because she was a second child and a daughter born during the one-child policy. Her parents might have gotten rid of her because she wasn’t born a boy.

Shu Man was not interested in acknowledging her biological relatives at that thought.

She had seen such incidents being reported in the news and there were reports of how there were couples in the villages who wanted a son but had two daughters, so they either abandoned, sold, or gave their daughter away, then posted notices and sob stories in the newspapers many years later. They would even go on television and claim that they were too poor to raise their daughter or gave lame excuses for abandoning their child, so she was not interested in acknowledging parents who were like that.

The same applied to her sister. Even if Mrs. Ye was truly her biological sister, she didn’t want to acknowledge her either.

She did not lead a luxurious lifestyle but she could earn enough to take care of the basic needs of both her mother and herself and her mother’s pension was also sufficient, so they could lead an ordinary life.

She wasn’t interested in a life of riches either.

She only wanted her mother to get better so that she could live a long life. She had already lost her biological mother and didn’t want to lose her mother either.

“Man Man, are you really not going to go?” Shu Man’s mother held her daughter’s hand tightly. She couldn’t bear to part with her daughter and looked helplessly at her daughter. After all, she didn’t have much longer to live.

Shu Man said stubbornly, “No!’
