Su Yunjin took out a folder from the suitcase and handed it to Xiao Yunyun.
Xiao Yunyun hesitated and did not dare to take it.
Su Yunjin had already shown her the adoption document, and her intuition told her that she wouldn't want to know the contents of this document.
"Let's take a look." Su Yunjin said, "You should have known this a long time ago."
Xiao Yunyun opened the folder with trembling hands. Inside was an old newspaper from more than 20 years ago.
The newspaper reported that the day before the newspaper was released, a major car accident occurred in downtown Sydney. A Chinese couple died on the spot in the car accident. Only the baby girl AA, whom the couple fought to the death to protect, survived.
This car accident involved two other private cars, one of which was owned by Xiao Guoshan.
At that time, Xiao Guoshan was in a hurry and drove close to the speed limit. The driver of another private car was a novice. In order to avoid Xiao Guoshan, the driver panicked and knocked over the Chinese couple's car.
That Chinese couple are Xiao Yunyun's biological parents.
Xiao Yunyun's life was bought with the lives of her biological parents.
Her body carries the weight of three lives.
However, if Xiao Guoshan hadn't driven too fast, her parents would not have died in a car accident...
Su Yunjin slowly knelt down in front of Xiao Yunyun and said: "Your father is responsible for this car accident, so we have never dared to tell you the truth.
"Yunyun, your father has been very afraid for so many years. He is afraid that you will not forgive him after knowing the truth. He is even more afraid that you will apply to the court to terminate the adoption relationship. Your father really loves you and has always regarded you as his biological daughter.
Treat, he is afraid of losing you."
Xiao Yunyun looked at the photos from the scene of the car accident and could not imagine that she, who was less than two years old at the time, was protected by her parents in the deformed car.
What were her biological parents thinking at the moment the car accident happened?
Will they struggle to survive, and will they worry about her future life?
Xiao Yunyun lowered her head, tears kept falling on the folder, and the old newspaper was soon wet with tears.
"Yunyun, I'm sorry." Su Yunjin looked at Xiao Yunyun and said something that was not reported in the newspaper, "After the car accident, your father felt very guilty, but the police could not contact your other family members, so he had to take care of the funeral of your biological parents.
.Afterwards, he inquired for a long time and learned that you have no relatives alive anymore - although this is strange, we really can't find your grandfather or grandmother, and you have become an orphan."
"..."
Xiao Yunyun shed more tears, but she kept restraining herself from crying.
Su Yunjin continued: "According to the law, you should be sent to a welfare institution. But your father felt that the welfare institution was not good for your growth. Later, he persuaded the judge through a lawyer and obtained your custody. Your father once told me
I said that I will tell you the truth when you graduate from college. Even if you are unwilling to forgive him, you will be able to live independently."
Xiao Yunyun finally couldn't help it, turned her head and buried it on Shen Yuechuan, crying loudly.
If she could do it all over again, she believed that Xiao Guoshan would not let another car accident happen.
However, how can we overturn the tragedy that happened more than 20 years ago?
Shen Yuechuan held Xiao Yunyun's head with both hands and let Xiao Yunyun lean on him.
Even if he was usually eloquent, he couldn't say a word to comfort Xiao Yunyun at this time.
When a habit that is taken for granted turns into just an illusion, the impact on people is immeasurable.
At this time, what Xiao Yunyun needs more may not be his comfort, but his companionship.
Su Jian'an came over and touched Xiao Yunyun's head: "Yunyun, let your aunt finish her words first."
Xiao Yunyun finally raised her head from Shen Yuechuan's arms and looked at Su Yunjin with tearful eyes: "Why is dad willing to be a couple in name only with you?"
"Because the person your father loves is not me." Su Yunjin said, "He was just like me. He lost his lover when he was very young. He didn't know how to live, but he didn't want his family to worry, so he found me. Asked me if I would like to cooperate with him."
At the beginning, Su Yunjin lost Jiang Ye and had to abandon Shen Yuechuan. If she had not promised Jiang Ye that she would live well, she might have sought death long ago.
Xiao Guoshan appeared during her most difficult time. They were in the same situation and even felt the same sadness.
The difference is that Xiao Guoshan has a successful career and has long been regarded as a young talent in the eyes of others. The old mother at home is afraid that he will not be able to think about it, so she threatens him with her life to get married again, trying to rekindle his hope in life.
But Xiao Guoshan could no longer fall in love with anyone. He chose to pay the reward and find a nominal wife. Not only could he reassure his mother, but he would also not have to bear the guilt of betraying his lover.
Through Qin Lin, Xiao Guoshan found Su Yunjin, and they quickly obtained a marriage certificate and became a couple in name.
After all, Su Yunjin graduated from business school. After getting over the grief of Jiang Ye's death, she and Xiao Guoshan expanded their territory together and became the company's chief financial officer. They received a generous annual salary and dividends, but they could never get them back. spouse.
Later, a car accident happened and Xiao Guoshan adopted Xiao Yunyun.
In Xiao Yunyun's eyes, they are a happy family of three.
In fact, only Xiao Guoshan and Su Yunjin knew that their family was full of unknown secrets.
Xiao Yunyun had been concealed for so many years, and the veil of the truth was finally lifted at this time, and she still saw the scars behind the perfection.
Everything she was familiar with, including her parents who had always loved her, were overturned and fissured at this time, and could never return to their original appearance.
Why does fate play tricks on her like this?
"Yunyun, your father will come over as soon as he has taken care of the affairs in Australia." Su Yunjin said, "He wants to apologize to you in person."
Apologize?
For the first time, Xiao Yunyun felt that these two words were like creatures from an alien planet, strange and far away. She subconsciously grabbed Shen Yuechuan's hand.
Shen Yuechuan knew Xiao Yunyun too well. He quietly wrapped her hand in his palm and said to the others in the room: "I'll take her out for a while."
Although the garden in late autumn is inevitably chilly, the green grass is covered with warm autumn sunshine, and the seasonal flowers are in full bloom, making every corner beautiful.
Shen Yuechuan let go of Xiao Yunyun's hand, walked around to her and squatted down: "Are you feeling better?"
Xiao Yunyun raised her head that was buried low, her almond-shaped eyes were as red as a rabbit, and she gasped slightly from time to time, like an extremely sad baby, looking extremely pitiful.
Shen Yuechuan gently hugged Xiao Yunyun, protected her head in his arms, and said, "I know how you feel now. We can go back first. You don't need to force yourself to accept this immediately."
Xiao Yunyun shook her head and cried out without warning: "My dad..."
Shen Yuechuan didn't know which father she was talking about, so he could only keep stroking her back and coaxing her with gentle words.
After crying enough, Xiao Yunyun finally said intermittently: "Dad is not sorry for me, he just accidentally did something wrong..."
Shen Yuechuan finally realized that Xiao Yunyun was talking about Xiao Guoshan.
Shen Yuechuan said softly, "Yeah", wiped Xiao Yunyun's tears, and guided her to say, "Why do you say that?"
"Growing up, my father has always been very kind to me. He has never scolded me. As long as it is what I want, he can buy it for me the next day without asking anything. Because of him, I have always been very happy when I was a child. However, for so many years, he has always felt that he was sorry for me and was afraid that I would not forgive him..."
Only then did Shen Yuechuan realize that Xiao Yunyun was indeed crying because she was sad, but what saddest her most was not her life experience.
But Xiao Guoshan, who had been dependent on her for so many years and had loved her since childhood, had been living with guilt. She could not imagine the mental pressure on Xiao Guoshan.
No matter what happened, she always hoped that Xiao Guoshan could be happy.
Shen Yuechuan stroked Xiao Yunyun's head: "Don't you blame your father?"
Xiao Yunyun shook her head and said: "Although dad is responsible, he probably doesn't want the car accident to happen.
"After the car accident, he considered that the orphanage was not good for my growth, and even planned to tell me the truth after I graduated. This shows that he never thought about escaping responsibility for the car accident.
"He has been kinder to me than anyone else over the years. I cannot deny everything he has done for me in the past twenty years just because of his mistakes more than twenty years ago."
Strictly speaking, Xiao Yunyun has not officially graduated yet and has not experienced the world at all.
But in the face of such a big change, she quickly and calmly considered the causes and consequences and made a decision.
Shen Yuechuan suddenly felt that in addition to his love for this little girl, he also had a little more appreciation.
Shen Yuechuan finally confirmed: "Have you considered it?"
Xiao Yunyun nodded: "Push me in, don't let my cousin and mother worry."
Everyone was waiting for Xiao Yunyun in the living room, and they were a little surprised to see her come back so soon.
Su Jianan walked over and found that Xiao Yunyun had stopped crying, her expression had calmed down, and there was even a smile in the corners of her beautiful eyes.
She breathed a sigh of relief and straightened Xiao Yunyun's somewhat messy long hair: "Is everything okay?"
Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and said, "Well, it's okay." Then, she called Su Yunjin, "Mom."
Su Yunjin nodded, but did not dare to say anything. She just looked at Xiao Yunyun and motioned for her to continue.
"I want to call dad."
Xiao Yunyun's voice was calm and certain.
Su Yunjin was stunned for a moment and asked uncertainly: "Yunyun, what do you want to tell your father?"
Xiao Yunyun stretched out her hand for Su Yunjin's mobile phone and said with a smile: "Don't you know what I said?"
Su Yunjin hesitated for a moment, then handed the phone to Xiao Yunyun.
The call was quickly connected, and Xiao Yunyun called out briskly: "Dad!"
"Hey, Yunyun." Xiao Guoshan's voice was trembling, "Dad heard it."
Listening to Xiao Guoshan's voice, Xiao Yunyun seemed to feel the guilt and caution he had spent over the past twenty years. Her nose became sore and she could no longer hide her cry: "Dad, I know everything."
