Because Ye Cheng was there, she couldn't talk about those upsetting things with Jiang Yan much. Later, Jiang Yan suggested they go out for a meal; she had gotten paid and wanted to treat. Ye Wan asked Sister Zhang to look after Ye Cheng and went out with Jiang Yan herself.
In the malatang shop near the community entrance, the two girls ordered their malatang and talked as they ate. Ye Wan then recounted all the grievances between her and the Gu family over the years.
Jiang Yan listened, dumbfounded, barely able to believe that Ye Wan's mother could do such a shameless thing. No, that woman didn't deserve to be called a mother, and she wasn't Ye Wan's biological mother!
"So that's how it is. No wonder you lived such a hard life before. That woman was too good at ripping people off, wasn't she? She screwed you over for so many years and completely ruined your life!" Jiang Yan said, clenching her fists in anger.
She felt Ye Wan was truly unlucky, targeted by that wicked woman from birth. After swapping the children, she still didn't treat her well. Later, she did something so morally bankrupt, then abandoned little Ye Wan to face the storm alone.
Ye Wan's upbringing was already difficult, and then she was left with a sick child to raise. Now that her younger brother's illness was finally cured, this woman had the nerve to come out and say she wanted to take the child away.
Jiang Yan was so shocked she didn't know how to curse. She felt that all the insulting words in the world weren't enough to describe that woman!
"But now that it's all clear, you're not that woman's biological daughter. Why does Gu Yunting's mother still have such strong animosity towards you?" Jiang Yan asked, confused. Shouldn't Gu夫人's hatred shift to that woman's biological daughter once Ye Wan's identity was exposed?
Ye Wan shook her head. "I don't know why either. She had severe depression when she jumped off the building. I'm afraid she hasn't recovered over the years. I think she might have mental health issues."
"It's possible. How can someone be like that? You might pity her, but her own daughter was clearly killed by her! It has nothing to do with you!" Jiang Yan said indignantly.
Ye Wan also found Gu夫人's hatred towards her difficult to understand, especially since she still hated Ye Wan even after learning that Lin Feiwei was her enemy's daughter. Not only that, but she also wanted Lin Feiwei to be her daughter-in-law.
Ye Wan had considered it, but she couldn't figure it out. It was too unbelievable. The only reason she could find was that Gu夫人 was mentally unstable.
That was why she feared that woman even more.
Jiang Yan's phone rang. She glanced at it and hung up immediately.
"Who was it?" Ye Wan asked curiously.
"I don't know. A strange number. It's probably not important." Jiang Yan's eyes darkened. She knew it was Chu Yu calling. Ever since they broke up, Chu Yu had been calling and texting her. She had blocked all his contact information, and then he started calling from unknown numbers.
He'd call once, she'd block the number. Now she didn't even answer unknown numbers.
Whether it was Chu Yu or not didn't matter anymore. What mattered was that they had broken up, and if they were over, they should be completely cut off.
After the two finished their malatang, Jiang Yan insisted on paying. After leaving the shop, Ye Wan took a taxi back to the Gu residence, while Jiang Yan walked home.
On the way, she received a call from her lawyer. Jiang Yan answered immediately. "Hello, Lawyer Yang."
"Really? I can really see my dad? Okay, okay, I understand. I'll be there on time tomorrow!"
