Chapter 289: Birth Mother Comes to the Door

At 7 a. m. in Room 4, Lin Feng got up to find Wu Qian had already prepared breakfast.

Jiang Xiaofei was sleeping soundly.

Seeing Wu Qian looking a bit tired, Lin Feng said with concern, "Why get up so early? You should sleep a little longer."

While saying that, Lin Feng actually felt smug inside.

He thought of Niu He Tian's theory.

To him, that was unscientific.

Wu Qian said, "Many of the breakfasts outside are unhealthy."

For example, youtiao should be fried in fresh oil, but outside they reuse oil that's already turned black.

Also, soy milk is basically made from soy powder, much of it sold loose—who knows what's been added.

Since your parents want to hold a grandchild, this time don't take the medicine.

Lin Feng said lightly.

Wu Qian let out an "uh".

Guo Yanru's case was special; she originally had some health issues.

So she had never been able to get pregnant.

As for other women, Lin Feng didn't need to guess what was going on……the house always kept cold medicine on hand.

Wu Qian's parents were in poor health.

Having a child, when finances allow, also requires considering the parents' feelings.

"Don't burden yourself psychologically; our Lin Family isn't the kind of wealthy clan you imagine. And don't watch too many of those TV dramas."

Only a small fraction of true wealthy families fight over inheritance; the rest have everything arranged clearly by those who manage the household.

Besides that, I won't touch the money you have in the bank; even if things go badly, our son or daughter would still have a net worth of a hundred million US dollars……

Saying this, Lin Feng felt he was still somewhat guilty of writing a bad check.

He then added, "After the child is born, open an account for him/her and transfer this sum into that account."

Before the child comes of age, withdraw the interest each year; once grown, the money can be freely withdrawn. What do you think?

Wu Qian stared, then quickly waved her hands, saying, "I'm not, not……"

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

She wasn't happy; she was worried.

It wasn't for Lin Feng's money that she liked him; she liked Lin Feng himself.

Her liking could be described as crazy and humble.

"I know what you mean."

Lin Feng reached out and pinched Wu Qian's cheek, smiling, "Feelings are feelings, but arrangements that need to be made must be made."

"Mm!"

Wu Qian nodded.

After breakfast, Lin Feng was about to leave, letting Wu Qian catch up on sleep, when the phone rang in the room.

Someone called Jiang Xiaofei's mobile phone.

"Hey~"

Jiang Xiaofei, still dazed, didn't check the number and just picked up.

"Are you Jiang Xiaofei?"

A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone.

"Yes, who are you?"

Jiang Xiaofei heard the middle-aged woman speaking in their hometown dialect, so she replied in the same dialect.

"Child, I'm your birth mother!"

The middle-aged woman on the phone burst into tears upon hearing that.

Jiang Xiaofei, upon hearing that, quickly hung up.

She then hurriedly got up, put on her robe, and ran to the living room.

"Xiao Fei, breakfast is ready."

Wu Qian looked at Jiang Xiaofei and called out.

Jiang Xiaofei raised her phone and said, "Just now someone called, saying they were my birth mother."

"Oh?"

Wu Qian furrowed her brows.

"Honey, what should we do?"

Jiang Xiaofei then asked Lin Feng.

Lin Feng sat down on the sofa, saying, "First eat breakfast, then see if the phone will ring again later."

"Oh!"

Jiang Xiaofei nodded.

Breakfast was youtiao and soy milk.

She nibbled on the youtiao while keeping her eyes on the phone.

Yesterday Lin Feng had also asked her about her birth parents.

I never expected that today someone would call, claiming to be her birth mother.

Over and over they said they had abandoned her and would not look for her.

But if her birth parents proactively come to the door……what should we do?

Jiang Xiaofei's current mix of resentment and anticipation, sadness and nervousness, is normal.

If she really acted cold, Lin Feng would distance himself from her.

At the same moment.

A somewhat outstanding middle-aged woman and a two-year-old-looking 'country girl' are standing at the entrance of Galaxy Community.

They know which building, which floor, and which room number Jiang Xiaofei lives in, but the security won't let them in.

Just as the phone connected, after saying only a sentence, Jiang Xiaofei hung up.

She hung up the phone, what do we do?

The middle-aged woman asks the two-year-old 'country girl'.

The 'country girl' is not unsophisticated; rather, she looks quite stylish.

She wears a waist-cinched thin cotton jacket with a red base embroidered with peony patterns.

Anyone who knows quality can tell at a glance that this flowered cotton jacket is hand-sewn, and the flowers are embroidered by herself.

Calling it a work of art is not an exaggeration.

She wears black tight pants and a pair of high heels.

Her hair is tied into two braids, exposing her forehead, and both hands are still in her pockets, somewhat ruining her stylish image.

She has a nice face, a good figure with a slim waist and long legs; the only flaw is her skin isn't very fair.

The 'country girl' walks up to the guard and says, 'Big brother guard, please help us notify the residents upstairs!'

The guard points at the access control display and says, 'Press it yourselves! Which building, which unit, plus the door number; the intercom inside will ring, and the people inside will also see you...'

The 'country girl' steps forward and presses 31203.

The access control panel rings with a ding-ding-dong sound.

But after a minute, there was no response.

She pressed it again.

The result was still the same.

The guard says, 'Don't press anymore, there's no one inside.'

'Sis, you should just call her niece!'

The 'country girl' turns around and says to the middle-aged woman.

'But she won't answer!'

The middle-aged woman says with a dim expression.

The 'country girl' says: 'Just tell her that Lao Hei, whom she abandoned, is already dead; ask her if she acknowledges you as her birth mother. No matter what, after meeting face to face, if she doesn't acknowledge us, we'll turn back.'

The middle-aged woman nods, then picks up the old phone and a slip of paper with a phone number, and presses the keys.

This phone number is still the one she bought for 200 yuan from Jiang Xiaofei's foster mother, Bao Huifang.

The phone connects again.

Jiang Xiaofei immediately picks up the phone, 'Hello~'

'Child, I really am your mother...'

Before she finishes speaking, the 'country girl' snatches the phone and says: 'Xiaofei, I am your aunt, your birth mother's sister; I now want to meet you—do you agree?'

After the 'country girl' finishes speaking, Jiang Xiaofei asks: 'Where are you?'

The 'country girl' says: 'Right outside the entrance of the community where you live; we can't get in, we tried to video call your unit, but no one answered.'

Jiang Xiaofei says: 'I'm not at home; wait a moment, I'll be right back.'

After hanging up, Jiang Xiaofei looks at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng lightly says: 'Handle it as you see fit; this is your family matter.'

Lin Feng said indifferently: "You handle it yourself! This is your family matter."
