After the mother was reborn, she was deeply involved in the battle for favor between her sons

"I forgot. The file bag is not on the desk. I put it in the bookcase."

A deep voice brought Ji Yu and Qiao Piaoxuan back to their senses.

Ji Tingyang walked in and took out a file bag from the bookcase on the wall.

Ji Yuqiao came back to his senses and hurriedly called Ji Tingyang, "Brother, who is the person in this photo?"

Ji Tingyang was stunned when he saw the photo in her hand. "...It's our family portrait."

"Is the woman in the photo our mother? She looks like Lin Xu. And this man, and Xie..."

"Who does he look like?" Ji Tingyang's face suddenly turned cold. "That man doesn't look like our father."

Before Ji Yuqiao could finish the words in her throat, she was frightened by Ji Tingyang and swallowed them back into her stomach.

"If you are nearsighted, go get glasses and stop talking nonsense." Ji Tingyang left the study with a sour face.

Ji Yuqiao patted his trembling heart.

Why is big brother getting angry for no reason?

They are obviously very similar.

It would be better for him to get a pair of glasses himself.

Ji Yuqiao looked at the photo for a long time before putting it back into the drawer.

When she returned to the living room, she was still thinking about the photo.

Seeing the housekeeper beside him, Ji Yuqiao's heart moved, and then asked: "Uncle housekeeper, do you know when Lin Xu came to our house?"

The butler thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be half a year ago..."

"How did she get here?" Ji Yuqiao asked.

"Hiss, I'm not sure either. It seems to have appeared suddenly."

"Have you ever seen her child?"

"Children? Does Miss Lin have any children? I haven't heard her mention them."

"Oh, so that's the case... maybe I remembered it wrong..." Ji Yuqiao laughed dryly.

Ji Zeqiu and Lin Xu walked around outside for a long time, and only came back after dark, carrying large and small bags.

Ji Tingyang hurried over and took the things from Lin Xu's hand, "Why did you buy so many things?"

"I saw a lot of new styles of clothes in the store, and I bought them all for you," said Lin Xu.

Ji Tingyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took out a shirt from the bag with a hint of joy on his face, "Is this for me?"

Ji Zeqiu snatched the shirt back and said, "You bought this for me!"

Ji Tingyang looked at the dozen bags on the ground, as if thinking about which one was his.

Ji Zeqiu took out a small box from a bag and said, "Don't look at it. Only this cufflink is yours. The others are all bought for me."

He glanced at Ji Tingyang with a hint of pride in his eyes.

It's like saying, my mother bought so many things for me, but this is the only one she gave you.

It turns out that I am my mother's favorite person.

The veins on Ji Tingyang's forehead bulged and his face looked extremely ugly.

Lin Xu glared at Ji Zeqiu, and quickly picked up a few bags and handed them to Ji Tingyang, "Don't listen to your brother's nonsense, these are all yours. Some are from Lan Yue, and I bought the same amount for everyone."

Ji Tingyang's expression improved a little, but his face still looked a little aggrieved.

Lin Xu patted his head soothingly.

Now it was Ji Tingyang's turn to secretly cast a provocative look at Ji Zeqiu.

Ji Zeqiu gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.

If it were in the past, Ji Yuqiao would definitely be gloating over the other person's misfortune.

But now she was a little confused.

Why do the eldest brother and the second brother like Lin Xu so much?

It’s not that she hasn’t met other relatives in the family, but her eldest and second brothers have always disliked those relatives and never allowed her to have too much contact with them.

But why do I like Lin Xu who just appeared not long ago?

Perhaps because she paid attention to this matter, she noticed many things that she had not noticed before.

For example, Lin Xu never mentioned her children.

But from what she said before, I can feel that she obviously loves her children, but I have never seen her call her children.

For example, the eldest brother and the second brother are always very dependent on Lin Xu.

When the eldest brother is in a bad mood, he always likes to lean on Lin Xu's shoulder.

The second brother obviously hated vegetables. No matter how she and the eldest brother persuaded him, he refused to eat them. But as soon as Lin Xu gave him a look, he ate them obediently.

With too many things on her mind, Ji Yuqiao tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

At this time.

A hand reached out and held her in his arms, gently stroking her back.

"Can't sleep?" Lin Xu's voice was soft and delicate, slowly blowing across her anxious chest like a breeze.

Ji Yuqiao's mood gradually calmed down, "Yeah."

"Shall I tell you a bedtime story?"

"I'm so old now..." Ji Yuqiao muttered, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his dark face.

“No matter how old you are, you can listen to stories,” said Lin Xu.

"Then tell me." Ji Yuqiao's tone was a little awkward.

"Once upon a time there was a mother lion and her little lion. The mother led the little lion up a steep hill..."

The sound of forest catkins is gentle, like a trickle of water in the mountains, clear and melodious.

Ji Yuqiao closed her eyes, and her mood gradually calmed down. Her head, which had originally been sleepless, became dizzy unconsciously.

In a daze, she seemed to feel a warm kiss on her cheek.

The voice beside my ear was gentle yet with a hint of sad regret, "Come to think of it, it seems like I never had the chance to coax you to sleep before..."

"But fortunately, there is still a chance now. Our family will be together forever in the future."

Ji Yuqiao's heartstrings were slightly touched.

That night, she had a dream.

She dreamed that her parents were not dead and the whole family was happily having a picnic in the suburbs.

Her mother walked towards her with a sandwich. She looked up and saw Lin Xu's smiling face.

The scene changed and returned to the day when he met Lin Xu in the villa.

The eldest and second brothers both said that Lin Xu was their mother...

-

Ji Zeqiu stayed at home for a week. After dinner that day, he went back to his room to pack the clothes he would bring to the crew.

Ji Yuqiao knocked on Ji Zeqiu's door.

He packed his luggage very skillfully. When he saw her come in, he didn't even raise his head. "No pocket money?"

Ji Yuqiao's mouth twitched, as if she came to him only to ask for money, "No, it's something else..."

"Do you have anything else to say?" Ji Zeqiu looked at her with some curiosity.

Ji Yuqiao rolled her eyes and decided not to argue with him.

The words she wanted to say had been brewing in her mind for a long time. She unconsciously tugged at the corners of her clothes with both hands, her eyebrows were almost twisted together, and her eyes revealed a hint of entanglement and hesitation.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Ji Zeqiu stopped what he was doing and looked at her.

Just when Ji Zeqiu was getting impatient, she spoke out her thoughts.

"Is Lin Xu really our mother?"
