Just moments ago, the person who had been by her side was now unresponsive.
Chi Zaozao couldn’t help but be startled and quickly picked up her phone to call Wei Zi Yue.
But Wei Zi Yue’s line was busy.
Chi Zaozao furrowed her brows in concern.
What could be going on?
Before long, her door was knocked on.
Chi Zaozao hurried over, looked through the peephole, and saw Wei Zi Yue.
“Wei Zi Yue, where did you go just now? I called you, why didn’t you answer?” asked Chi Zaozao while glaring at him.
Wei Zi Yue had a weary expression. “I’m sorry, Zaozao. I had something urgent to attend to.”
Seeing his tired expression, Chi Zaozao immediately softened her expression and asked, “What happened? Is there something I can help with?”
Wei Zi Yue shook his head. “Thank you, but I can handle it on my own.”
“Alright, but if you ever need help, don’t hesitate to ask me,” Chi Zaozao said.
Wei Zi Yue couldn’t help but feel touched. “I will.”
Then he said to Chi Zaozao, “By the way, there’s something I need to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“The woman in the news you just saw, Luo Wanwan… she’s actually my mother,” Wei Zi Yue said, taking a deep breath.
Chi Zaozao was completely stunned by this revelation.
“What are you saying? Luo Wanwan is your mother? So, does that mean you and Lin Yi Chen are half-siblings?” Chi Zaozao’s head was spinning with confusion.
This was all too much to process.
Wei Zi Yue nodded with a wry smile. “It’s true, I just found out by myself. I’ve already called Lin Yi Chen, but he refuses to acknowledge our mother.”
Hearing this, Chi Zaozao shook her head. “Of course, you wouldn’t understand what Lin Yi Chen went through in the Lin family in the past. Lin Haowei had another illegitimate child, and he treated that child very well, while Lin Yi Chen was treated like an abandoned child. He suffered so much abuse because of his birth mother. How could he easily forgive her?”
Wei Zi Yue fell silent.
He had hoped to somehow reconcile their relationship.
But Chi Zaozao saw through his intentions instantly.
She immediately said, “You’re not thinking of trying to mediate between them, are you? I advise you not to. Lin Yi Chen will never agree to it.”
Chi Zaozao had some insight into Lin Yi Chen’s character, thanks to her connection with Wan Yu.
Lin Yi Chen was as cold-hearted as they come, especially considering that he had been abandoned by Luo Wanwan. It would be impossible for him to forgive her.
“I understand. My mother… probably doesn’t want to know about him either,” said Wei Zi Yue with feeling disappointed.
He had never imagined that his nearly perfect mother had once abandoned a child.
“In that case, why not keep it from your mother? And even if she finds out, what can she do? Will she regret and acknowledge Lin Yi Chen?” Chi Zaozao shook her head.
Judging from the news online, if she were in Luo Wanwan’s shoes, she would regret giving birth to someone like Lin Haowei’s child.
So, not only did she not love Lin Yi Chen, but she probably despised him and wished she had never given birth to him.
