The Martial Doctor

Chapter 542 - 453: Luu Wan’s Test (Part 2)

"Mrs Luu, what do you want to say?" Sun Youwei slightly furrowed her brows and looked at Luu Wan with some confusion, unsure why she said this.

"Lady, let me get straight to the point, do you still remember your mother?"

"Mother?"

Sun Youwei muttered to herself. The term "mother" hadn’t appeared in her mind for a long time. From the time she had memories, she had never seen what her mother looked like.

Of course, she knew that everyone had a mother, she didn’t just pop out from a crack in a stone. Her father rarely mentioned her mother, but she still knew some things, like her mother’s name, birthday, and so on.

But these topics were taboo while her father was alive, forbidden to be discussed at home.

From what she remembered, after giving birth to her, her mother abandoned her father, breaking his heart, which led to the events that followed.

Then, she encountered Dongguo Sun, and only then did she learn some inside details. However, whether this was true or not still needed verification.

But she had already let it go; her father was dead, her mother didn’t want her either, so why bother entangled in this? Isn’t it better to just live her own life?

Now, there was someone mentioning her mother again, and this took her by complete surprise, especially someone as unrelated as Luu Wan.

"Mrs Luu, who exactly are you?" Sun Youwei asked in a questioning tone. Although she came from a small place, she had experienced many things over the past year and broadened her horizons, understanding many principles.

"Is your mother named Hua Qingye? Your mother and I come from the same place." Luu Wan took a deep breath and said.

"What? You and my mother come from the same place?" Sun Youwei heard this and was taken aback.

"Yes, your mother and I are both disciples of the Wenda Sect. Your mother was even the chief disciple of Merak Peak in the Wenda Sect, the senior sister of Merak Peak, and I belonged to Jade Balance Peak, but I was friends with your mother. She was older than me, so I called her senior sister." Luu Wan explained, "My real name is Situ Wan, known in the martial world as the Red Rose."

"Sorry, I’m not familiar with the people and affairs of the martial world. Miss Situ, why are you telling me all this?" Sun Youwei warily asked.

"Youwei?"

"Please call me Lady..."

"Lady, what I want to tell you is that your mother is still alive and she has been missing you very much, but she can’t meet with you."

Sun Youwei’s heart skipped a beat. Hearing the news that her mother was still alive was like a sudden punch to her heart, a quite intense shock.

She had already tried hard to forget this woman who abandoned her husband and daughter. Yet, upon hearing news of her, she couldn’t help but feel excited — indeed, this must be the feeling of blood being thicker than water.

"Since she’s already abandoned my father and me, what’s the point of bringing this up again?" Sun Youwei tried to suppress her emotions, taking a deep breath as she spoke.

"Lady, your mother didn’t want to abandon you and your father. She had no other option. When her master found out that she had eloped with your father, he ordered her to give the child to your father and sever the relationship. Your mother refused and was locked up by her master’s master. Your mother couldn’t see your father. Your father should have told you what happened next, right?"

Sun Youwei lightly shook her head, "My father didn’t say anything. He seldom mentioned my mother. Since childhood, I was a child without a mother, so I didn’t know any of these things you mentioned."

"Ah?" This outcome was beyond Situ Wan’s expectations.

However, it was understandable that someone like Sun Simiao, a non-vocal man, had been abandoned by his wife and closed off his heart, not wanting to tell his daughter such things to prevent planting seeds of hatred towards her mother in her heart.

"Lady, your mother has been deep in cultivation all these years. Her master’s condition was that she would regain her freedom if she advanced to Tianyuan. By then, you and your mother could meet..."

"It’s been twenty years, and I don’t even know what she looks like. What does it matter whether we meet or not?" Sun Youwei replied.

"Your mother didn’t want to leave you behind. She wished to be with you and your father, raising you and watching you get married."

"So aside from giving birth to me and giving me life, what else?"

"Youwei, she is your mother; she gave birth to you and raised you?"

Sun Youwei thought for a moment and said, "She did give birth to me, but she didn’t raise me. Okay, I probably drank her milk when I was in swaddling clothes, so I can’t say she didn’t raise me. You came to find me, and used a false identity to stay with us for more than a year; why reveal your identity now and tell me all this?"

"Youwei, your mother had no choice. If she hadn’t been locked up by her master, how could she be unwilling to raise you?"

"So, I also don’t blame her. So many years have passed, I consider her already gone. If she doesn’t disturb me, I won’t look for her. Isn’t everyone living peacefully a good thing?"

Situ Wan was stunned. She had envisioned several scenarios in her mind of how Sun Youwei would react upon hearing about her mother, but never had she imagined one like this, so calm.

"Youwei, please believe me, everything I said is true, with no intention of deceiving you..."

"Alright, Mrs Luu, no, I should call you Miss Situ. Since you’ve been hiding your identity, there’s no need for you to stay any longer. Tomorrow, pack up your things. I’ll have someone settle your wages, and we’ll part ways amicably." Sun Youwei unfeelingly issued an order to leave.

She wasn’t foolish. No matter how well this woman spoke or how reasonable her reasons were, since she had hidden her identity in the Lin Family, it was natural not to tolerate her staying any longer.

"Okay, can Lady allow me two days to hand over the work at Huaye Tower before I leave?"

"Alright." Sun Youwei agreed. Situ Wan, as the head chef of Huaye Tower, had her skills and abilities. Her leaving would likely affect Huaye Tower’s kitchen work, but if she remained, who knew what might happen next?

Since she hid her identity to come to the Lin Family and only now exposed her identity, surely she had an ulterior motive.

Otherwise, why didn’t she directly reveal her identity upon arrival? Why wait until now to make it public?

Although she wasn’t inclined to judge others with the greatest malignity, the world wasn’t simple; human nature is complex, and so is the world.

Moreover, despite her outward calmness, her mind was quite troubled.

...

Early in the morning, Lin Miao extricated himself from a pair of jade arms; Si Miaoxue was the typical clumsy player. If he hadn’t deliberately restrained himself,

she might not even be able to get out of bed today.

However, being able to satisfy one’s woman is undoubtedly the greatest achievement for a man spiritually.

He got up and washed.

Yue Mei’Er quietly slipped into Si Miaoxue’s room, approaching the bed, and pinching the corner of the quilt, gently lifted it. Seeing the undulating peaks inside, she clicked her tongue and said, "Sister Miaoxue, our lord is really relentless. Just look at what he’s turned you into."

"If you’re jealous, try it yourself next time," Si Miaoxue said, pulling the quilt to wrap her shapely body. Turning over, her cheeks flushed slightly. Last night, she indeed overindulged, wanting more, but in the end, she suffered the most.

They say the soil never wears out, only the ox does.

Yet, this old ox wasn’t exhausted, but the field couldn’t take it anymore.

No wonder Yue Mei’Er wanted to win over Ji Fei’Er. She hoped that, at crucial moments, there would be someone to share the burden. It seemed she also needed to find a good sister to share with; Baili Yuyao would be a good choice.

"Sister Miaoxue, if you’re unable to handle it next time, shall I join in?" Yue Mei’Er leaned down, whispered into Si Miaoxue’s ear, and breathed softly, "We are good sisters after all."

"You little hedonist." Si Miaoxue playfully cursed. Yue Mei’Er was getting more and more shameless, chasing after such things?

"Sister Miaoxue, don’t blame me. Last night, I was in the next room, and believe me, you were louder than Mei’Er..."

"Say that again, and I’ll tear your mouth!" Si Miaoxue leaped up as if someone had stepped on her tail.

"Mei’Er, stop disturbing Miaoxue’s rest and come accompany me for breakfast.

"Coming, my lord." Yue Mei’Er dodged Si Miaoxue’s incoming pink fists and cheerfully ran out with a smile.

"Mei’Er, we need to expedite the production of colorless flat glass. Once the glassware market saturates, we need a new profit growth point. If we can use colorless flat glass to replace window paper or curtains, there won’t be a need to light up indoors during the day, and it can also retain heat. Surely, the wealthy will want it."
