He's My Fiancée ! : I Went Back To The Past and You !

Chapter 321: Small House-I

Xiao Yun took a hard time hearing her words. The sky was clear outside but by the time they had spoken about Andy and Mrs. Hernely, light rain filled the sky to turn the windows behind them show a grayish shadow.

"She didn't disappear?" because that was what Xiao Yun heard from Wang Li Lei and she doubted Wang Li Lei would give false information unless the information he received was wrong in the first place.

"How could anyone believe that?" asked Mrs. Sophia cynically, "This wasn't the first time she disappeared, she had done it since her teenage years. Her marriage with my brother in law, Ru Ming was marriage with patches. They often fight which lead them to moving houses often and once he died, I don't see why she doesn't think the baby was a burden for her."

This made Xiao Yun to draw her brows, "Why do you think so, aunty?" she could see the deep hatred from Mrs. Sophia, looking at her she had a little glare which wasn't aimed to Xiao Yun but the sister she remembered well.

"This could be count as nothing compared to her previous deeds to my family. That woman had lost her marbles since she was adopted." Xiao Yun didn't comment, she had no words to say to hear the woman continues,

"My sister, Henerly was a beautiful girl. My parents found her after she had been thrown by her abusive father from house. But even when I knew she wasn't my blood related sister, I love her no less than how I would ever love my sister. It was not soon after adoption that I realizes the way she spoke was different, her eyes often looked emotionless, and there was time I could feel chill with the way she looked at my father and mother. At first I thought it was perhaps just something that I find odd and not think too much but I could never shake the sight of her expression that day. Until that happen," Mrs. Sophia trailed, her expression as she speak looks distance as she pulled her deepest memories.

Mrs. Sophia held boiling anger as she voiced out her pain, "She pushed my father off the stairs and claimed that she wasn't the one who had pushed him. But that day I see it, I saw that from the other end of the stairs, that she was there looking down at my father's body with a disgusting expression." she whispered, her voice quivered along the air and regardless she wasn't looking at Xiao Yun, she could feel as if Mrs. Sophia was growling to her.

"What did the police say?" asked Xiao Yun to hear Wang Li Lei speaking,

"They must have placed it under self defense or accidents."

"That's right," Mrs. Sophia replied her face twist into a mocking smile. "They couldn't believe that such a small girl would be able to push down a man who was doubled her appearance and believed that my father tripped because he was drunk. My mother couldn't cope with the loss of my father but she couldn't bear to let Hernely go as she had thought of her as her own daughter. When she was nineteen she disappeared from the house and I never met her again until she disappeared to leave her only son. I only knew about her son when I received a letter from her."

"But that doesn't explain why you adopted Andy under a different name," Wang Li Lei said bluntly.

"I had my own son, he was still but a baby but he died in labour. While Andy, no Adam he was a child without a parent so I took him in under the pretense of my own son." Whispered Mrs. Sophia her eyes held both guilt but also condemn.

Now that Xiao Yun thought, perhaps when Mrs. Sophia had praised Andy, there was the bitterness she had uttered because of how Andy resemble his mother. Xiao Yun didn't know what to say. She was lost and now she was even more lost. Mrs. Hernely from the way Mrs. Sophia had said seemed to be a very evil person with a heart of stone.

"I think I need a rest," said Mrs. Sophia. "Can you please leave the house, Xiao Yun?"

Wang Li Lei didn't say anything and stood up for Xiao Yun to follow his suit. But before she leaves the house, Xiao Yun steeled her nerves to try and ask without being intrusive. "Aunty, I'm sorry but I still have one least question."

Mrs. Sophia turned her green eyes which had the same color as Andy and weakly spoke, "Go on,"

"Do you love Andy?" was what Xiao Yun questioned. Her eyes looked at Mrs. Sophia who stared back at her with a sad smile.

She leaned back to her chair, her face was looking at her but somewhere her gaze was looking at something that seemed to be very far.

"Of course, if I don't love him who else would?"

Once they exited the house, Xiao Yun wasn't in the mood to do anything. Her head was filled with the face of Mrs. Sophia who smiled sadly as she had spoken about Andy. She couldn't put her finger into it but she felt something was amiss from Mrs. Sophia.

As they were about to leave the house just then Mr. Cheng, Mrs. Sophia's husband entered the house to meet both Xiao Yun and Wang Li Lei exiting the house.

"Xiao Yun, Li Lei." greeted the elder man, smiling at the two.

"Mr. Cheng." greeted Wang Li Lei politely, his hand which was still holding Xiao Yun's hand stayed in the middle between them.

"Uncle." called Xiao Yun, pulling her smile despite the feeling that she wasn't able to smile.

Finding the gloomy look on Xiao Yun's face, Mr. Cheng spoke, "I forgot to congratulate you two for your engagement. Congratulations."

"Thank you uncle," replied Xiao Yun.

"Speaking of that, What did you came for today?"

"We came to talk with Mrs. Sophia." replied Wang Li Lei briefly and saw Mr. Cheng nodding. Then he added, "We came to talk about Andy and Adam."

A surprise flashed over to Mr. Cheng's face. He seemed to also know something by his expression. Taking a few steps toward the couple, Mr. Cheng patted Xiao Yun's shoulder like what she remembered when she was small.
