The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

Chapter 544: Yiyi Is Tang Tang

The middle-aged woman dug out several yellowed photographs from her pocket and handed them to He Xiyan as she said apologetically, “Mrs. Ye, does the girl in the photograph resemble your sister?”

He Xiyan frowned in confusion. She was so hopeful that she eagerly reached for the photographs. When she examined those photographs, she saw that they were taken at least twenty years ago and the photographs were of a young couple carrying a small girl. She couldn’t tear her gaze from the girl in the photograph, the girl who looked so much like her younger sister.

Ye Hao stared at the photograph and picked up a photograph of He Yiyi for comparison.

They looked at each other with similar expressions of confusion and their eyes suddenly widened. It wasn’t that obvious before they compared the photograph with the photograph of He Yiyi they had but the moment they put the photographs together, they realized that the two-year-old girl in the photograph was almost certainly He Yiyi. The only difference was that the girl looked a little older in the other photograph but otherwise, they looked exactly the same.

He Xiyan looked at the middle-aged couple who seemed to be in their fifties and her eyes were full of complex emotions. She was both excited and elated and even a little touched.

“Where’s Yiyi?” she asked as she took the middle-aged woman’s hands in hers and asked excitedly, “What is she? Did you take her in?” She had already risen to her feet and she was so elated that the corners of her lips had curled upward in happiness.

The middle-aged woman sighed in resignation and her eyes were teary as she shook her head. “We don’t know where she is right now either.”

Then, the middle-aged woman dabbed at her eyes and looked very upset.

Her husband who stood beside her also looked very sorrowful.

Ye Hao frowned as he looked at the couple. Then, he pulled the middle-aged woman over and asked grimly, “What’s going on? Didn’t you adopt the child in the photograph?”

Ye Hao assumed that the girl was no longer around when he clocked the sorrowful expressions on the couples’ faces.

The middle-aged man started to speak. He held his wife’s hand tightly and said sadly, “We spent 20,000 dollars buying the girl in the photograph in 1998. The child was not even two years old then and we named her Tang Tang. We were very happy to have Tang Tang with us but when Tang Tang was two and half years old, my wife suddenly fell pregnant with twins, even though she couldn’t fall pregnant before. We weren’t that financially well-off and after our twin girls were born, we didn’t have the energy nor financial resources to raise Tang Tang, so we sent her to an orphanage.”

The middle-aged couple was a little upset when they told their story. One of their daughters didn’t live past three years old and the other twin was now an adult but she was always hanging around bad company and hardly ever went home.

They felt that if Tang Tang was still with them, she might have grown up to be a well-behaved child.

He Xiyan slumped dejectedly against the chair as though all her energy had been sucked from her. She was extremely upset and disappointed.

She had thought that her sister would have been taken in by people who loved her but her younger sister had ended up being sent to the orphanage.

Ye Hao looked at the middle-aged man calmly and asked, “After you sent her to the orphanage? When was the last time you saw her? Moreover, you should have raised her until she was three years old, so do you have her photographs when she was three?”
