Xia Dongxue was indeed willing to listen. She choked back her sobs and said, "I’m sorry, Mom really can’t control herself."
Yunyi naturally understood. "It’s a good thing we’ve found each other. We should be happy."
Xia Dongxue agreed, "You’re right, we should be happy."
But as she spoke, the tears began to fall again.
Luckily, with Ye Wenhao, Yunyi’s second brother, cracking jokes on the side, Xia Dongxue finally managed to stop crying.
Only then did Ye Bingyu formally make the introductions. "Yunyi, I am Ye Bingyu, your biological father, and this is your mother, Xia Dongxue."
Pointing to the person next to him, he continued, "This is your eldest brother, Ye Wenhui, and this is..."
Before he could finish, Ye Wenhao interjected, "I’m your second brother, Ye Wenhao!"
Ye Bingyu then pointed towards Shi Jingfang and said, "This is your second aunt, Shi Jingfang."
Shi Jingfang looked at Yunyi, her face full of guilt. "I never expected we’d have this kind of connection. We met a few times but always seemed to miss a proper introduction due to unfortunate circumstances. If even one of those encounters had been less hurried, maybe we could have found you sooner."
Yunyi comforted her by patting her hand. "Perhaps, in the grand scheme of things, it’s all fate. There’s no need for self-reproach. In this vast sea of people, it’s already wonderful that we could reunite."
Xia Dongxue, also concerned that her sister-in-law might continue to blame herself, added, "Jingfang, Yunyi is right. It’s all the work of fate. If it hadn’t been for you, we might not have found out at all. From now on, let’s treat her well and make up for everything she lacked before, twice over."
