Chapter 207 – Prioritising Males Over Females (重男轻女)
No matter what, Jing Yun Zhao could not act as if she didn’t see them since they were already here. Plus, she herself would like to know about her origins.
The next morning, Jing Tie Jun and w.a.n.g Xin Fang were already waiting outside their apartment district. They were still wearing the clothes they wore yesterday while Jing Yun Zhao was clean and tidy from top to bottom and even the quality of her clothes weren’t half bad, which formed a sharp contrast.
“Girl, are your adoptive parents not coming?” w.a.n.g Xin Fang asked.
Hua Ning County was a small county and did not have the biotechnology to conduct a paternity test, therefore, they had to make a trip to Ning City.
School would start in a few days so going to Ning City to do the paternity test now wouldn’t be an issue. The only problem was that it would take up to half a month for the results to come out.
“I broke off all contact with my adoptive parents. I’m all by myself now,” Jing Yun Zhao said.
Her features were delicate and her aura was beautiful yet aloof. When she spoke, she even carried a hint of majesty, and this caused the couple to be stunned, but very quickly, w.a.n.g Xin Fang recovered and asked.
”A- Are you sure this is okay? After all, they’ve raised you until now, and if you broke off all relations with your adoptive parents just because you found your real parents, what would people say behind your back?”
“It’s not because of you guys that I broke relations with my adoptive parents. Furthermore, we’re not even sure if we are biologically related, so you need not concern yourself with this matter, thank you.” Jing Yun Zhao’s voice was powerful and resonating, polite yet distant.
Not to mention whether or not they currently knew if they were related, even if they were, it was impossible for them to suddenly become intimate without some time.
On top of that, she couldn’t help but feel suspicious when she thought about what Bai Yu An told her this morning.
This husband-wife duo said that the elders in the Jing Family prioritised males over females, but the truth was that w.a.n.g Xin Fang’s grandmother had already pa.s.sed away 15 years ago
This meant that, even if she was really thrown away by that grandmother, this couple still somehow give birth to one after another. They had three kids, two daughters one of 14 years of age and the other of 12 years, and their youngest child, a 10 y/o boy. They gave birth to one child every two years, only stopping when they finally had a boy. No matter how it was looked at, it didn’t seem like it was under the pressure of their elders.
Jing Yun Zhao’s att.i.tude towards them caused the couple’s expression to slightly stiffen.
“Forget it, forget it. This child wasn’t raised by our side, so of course, our way of thinking and hers would be different; it’s only normal. Let’s just go to the city first!” Jing Tie Jun said while sighing faintly.
Both of them looked distressed as if they were suffering under endless guilt.
Jing Yun Zhao was also not bothered and followed the couple onto the bus heading towards Ning City.
On the bus, Jing Yun Zhao’s exquisite appearance attracted a second look from the surrounding people. Seeing them stare at her, w.a.n.g Xin Fang who was sitting beside Jing Yun Zhao forced a happy smile on her face saying, ”This is my eldest daughter…”
Originally, the people only threw Jing Yun Zhao a few more glances, but after hearing w.a.n.g Xin Fang’s extra sentence, the whole bus burst into noisy discussion.
“Elder Sister, you really know how to raise a daughter. With her looks, this girl can easily become a celebrity….” an aunty sitting beside them exclaimed.
Jing Yun Zhao frowned slightly while sitting on the window seat, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
The s.p.a.ce in the bus was small and cramped, which easily caused people to feel frustrated and claustrophobic. In addition, she never liked being pointed and talked about by other people. Even if they had good intentions, it made her feel like she was an animal in a zoo exhibition, making her feel even more uncomfortable.
“This girl was always good looking since she was young, but sister, you didn’t know that my daughter has been lost for all these years, and I only just found her yesterday. It’s been too long, and my daughter was still young back then, so she couldn’t recognize me. That’s why we’re going to Ning City now to do a paternity test because she couldn’t recognize me after all these years!” w.a.n.g Xin Fang said, not caring whether the other party wanted to listen or not.
