Chapter 166
"Dad, Mom, little brother, I'm really so happy!" Ye Jinmeng exclaimed, her voice shaking with emotion.
Hearing their daughter call out to them, Song Jiaxi and Xiao Yongze were overwhelmed with excitement.
They had waited nineteen years to hear their daughter call them Mom and Dad, and now they finally had.
Xu Wanwan was also on the verge of tears, genuinely happy for Mengmeng, hoping that Mengmeng wouldn't be tormented by those knots in her heart anymore.
Although Mengmeng seemed to only know about eating and drinking every day, like a clueless little piglet, she was actually very sensitive.
Almost every night, she could hear Mengmeng talking in her sleep.
She seemed to be blaming herself in her dreams, constantly saying sorry.
From protecting her and taking a knife for her in Ye Jinmeng's past life, to feeling guilty for her birth circumstances afterward.
Especially since she was just a soul from another world, the most innocent one, yet kindly shouldering all responsibilities.
Now there was a good outcome, surely she would go back to being that carefree and adorable little one, right?
Ye Junli and Gu Qi were also quietly wiping their tears, watching the family reunion.
Xu Wanwan shared a glance with her parents, then threw herself into their arms, feeling the warmth of her family.
Ye Jinchen wanted to join in the hug, but he was afraid of feeling awkward.
Ye Jinchen: I should be under the sofa, not in the sofa...
Finally, everyone's emotions calmed down. Ye Junli, seeing Xiao Yongze still tightly holding Mengmeng's hand, said somewhat jealously to Ye Jinmeng:
"Sweetie, you have new parents now, but you can't forget your old parents..."
Ye Jinmeng, who had been crying for a long time, still had red eyes, but she instantly burst into laughter at her father's words.
"Dad, Mom, I won't forget you. As long as you're willing, I'm still your daughter. This way, I have two sets of parents to love me."
"Moreover, I also have brothers and sisters, and a little brother. My life is just too perfect!"
Then she took a look at both pairs of parents and negotiated: "How about one of you try harder and give me a little sister?"
Ye Jinmeng's playful words lightened the atmosphere in the living room. Song Jiaxi couldn't help but pinch Ye Jinmeng's little face, "You little rascal, how can you be so cute!"
Ye Jinmeng stuck out her tongue playfully, then her eyes lit up as she asked: "By the way, Dad, Mom, and parents, who was born first between Wanwan and me? Which of us is the older sister and which is the younger sister?"
Ye Jinchen, who had been silent all this while, spoke first, "You don't have to be conflicted, you're the younger sister! You were born nearly an hour later than Wanwan. I was only six at the time, but I remember it very clearly."
Gu Qi nodded, "Right, for mutual encouragement, we stayed in the same ward. After I gave birth, I returned to the ward, and an hour later, Xi Xi was brought back."
Ye Jinmeng pouted, she thought she might have a chance to turn the tables and be the elder sister, but now it was confirmed that she was indeed the younger one.
Xu Wanwan laughed, "What's up, Mengmeng, do you want to be an elder sister? Alas, I'm afraid it's not possible in this lifetime."
Xiao Yuanning playfully clung to Ye Jinmeng's arm, "Sister, sister, I'm enough as your brother, if you like, I'll always call you sister."
Ye Jinmeng laughed out loud, patting his head affectionately, "Good boy~"
Xiao Yuanning obediently leaned in, allowing his sister to ruffle his hair.
Watching the interaction between the siblings, everyone felt comforted and began discussing the details of the recognition banquet.
"Why don't we two families hold a recognition banquet together?" suggested Ye Junli.
"That works, and it can also serve as a belated birthday party for the two kids." Xiao Yongze agreed.
"Good, let's pick a date, and make sure it's grand!"
Song Jiaxi didn't get involved in these matters, she just held her daughter's hand, looking at her with a face full of maternal love.
"Mengmeng, tomorrow is Saturday, do you have any plans? Would you like to go out and play with Mom?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Jinmeng's face fell, "Mom, I have to take make-up exams at school tomorrow and the day after..."
"I was in a car accident before and didn't take the final exam. The make-up exam was supposed to be last Saturday, but then it was postponed to this Saturday."
Song Jiaxi had heard from Gu Qi about Mengmeng's situation before, the continuous injuries and incidents over the past few months have been breaking her heart.
She touched Ye Jinmeng's head, "Good girl, then focus on your exam tomorrow. Mom will cook delicious food for you every day. When we have time later, Mom and Dad will take you out to have fun."
Ye Jinmeng obediently nodded, "Okay."
"Would you like to go home with Mom and Dad tonight? Mom wants to sleep with you."
Ye Jinmeng glanced at Gu Qi, and seeing her encouraging nod, she agreed.
Asking Gu Qi's opinion was not because she was closer to Gu Qi, but out of respect, indicating that she wouldn't neglect the feelings of the foster parents who had raised and pampered her for nineteen years just because she now had her biological parents.
Both her biological parents and her foster parents were her benefactors, even though she was a soul from another world. But now that she was alive through Ye Jinmeng's body, she became Ye Jinmeng, and she was the one to receive and repay these kindnesses.
She would show the same respect and love to both sets of parents.
After having dinner at the Ye's, Ye Jinmeng left with the Xiao family.
Watching the departing car, Gu Qi couldn't help but sigh, "So many things have happened recently, it really feels like a dream, I feel like this world is so fantastical."
"Indeed, it's quite fantastical." Ye Jinchen agreed.
Wasn't it? He had witnessed things like time travel and rebirth, how could it not be fantastical...
Ye Junli glanced at him, "The world is fantastical, isn't it? I see you're almost recovered, you can go back to work at the company from next Monday. Then you won't find it fantastical anymore."
After saying that, he walked into the house with his wife, "Wife, let's not hang out with the single dog. I've retired now, I have more time to spend with you."
Xu Wanwan gave Ye Jinchen a glance, stifling her laughter, and hurried back to her room, leaving Ye Jinchen alone, disheveled by the wind.
Ye Jinchen stood with his hands on his hips, his tongue pressing against his back teeth, "Heh, who have I offended now?"
At the mansion villa.
"Baby, these are the clothes your mom prepared for you. Let me know if you like them."
Ye Jinmeng looked at the spacious walk-in closet in front of her, her mouth wide open in awe. It was filled with the latest fashion clothes, shoes, and handbags, plus a whole wall of cosmetics and skincare products.
No wonder her mother told her not to pack anything when she was leaving the Ye's house. She had already prepared everything for her.
"Mom, when did you prepare all of this?"
Song Jiaxi smiled, "I started preparing these the day after we did the parent-child identification. I don't know if you will like them. I chose them based on your usual style. The skincare and cosmetics were all bought after consulting Xiaoqi."
"I love them, I really do. Thank you, mom!" Ye Jinmeng, moved, hugged her mother. She didn't expect her mother to have prepared everything for her even before the identification results were out, which genuinely moved her.
"Mom, weren't you afraid that I might not be your daughter?"
Song Jiaxi patted her back, "No, I wasn’t scared. Perhaps this is the power of blood relations. I was certain that you were my daughter."
