"Dad can eat anything, you can choose what you like." Zhang Bin glanced at Zhang Xiaoxi's seemingly invisible belly, with a bit of shame on his face, "Your pregnant dad never bought you anything, so I choose today." If you like to eat, I will make it up to you as a father!"

Zhang Xiaoxi smiled, "Dad, don't I know you? You hand in your salary every month, and you only leave three to five hundred living expenses for yourself. You don't have the money to buy things for me. You don't have to blame yourself." , I know all about it."

Cao Meilan was ruthless to her, and even more ruthless to her husband. Before marriage, Zhang Bin had no hobbies, the only thing he liked was smoking, which was a very cheap one.

But in order to save money, Cao Meilan forced Zhang Bin to quit this only little hobby.

Zhang Xiaoxi picked out some of Zhang Bin's favorite dishes, and placed an order for a few dishes he liked.

While waiting for the food to be served, Zhang Bin asked about Zhang Xiaoxi's recent situation, but he didn't dare to ask further. In his impression, Zhang Xiaoxi still loved Gao Ming very much, so the divorce must be a very painful memory for his daughter. Zhang Xiaoxi recalled again.

The dishes were served quickly one after another. Zhang Xiaoxi didn't order too much, six dishes, one soup, and one main course. But when the dishes came, Zhang Bin didn't say anything, but his expression was obviously distressed.

I almost didn't write the word "waste" on my face.

Zhang Xiaoxi looked funny, shook his head and said, "Dad, you can eat at ease. It won't cost much, and I'll treat you."

His thoughts were punctured, and Zhang Bin showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, but he immediately said: "I, I don't feel sad, Xiaoxi, you can eat it if you like it! Besides, it's Daddy's invitation, don't argue with me!"

Zhang Xiaoxi smiled and said yes, but Zhang Bin didn't know that she paid on the phone after ordering.

The two sat opposite each other, chatting while eating, and they were all commonplace, but Zhang Xiaoxi knew that Zhang Bin didn't come to him to talk about these things.

She stuffed a piece of stewed beef into her mouth, not intending to make any detours, and said directly: "Dad, what do you want to say when you come to me? If you want to persuade me to reconcile with Cao Meilan, don't say it. I will never talk about it again in this life." Call her mom."

Zhang Bin's face suddenly turned ugly, because part of the reason he went to Zhang Xiaoxi was to reconcile his daughter and wife.

But Zhang Xiaoxi is too smart, he can see his thoughts at a glance, he remembers that his daughter in memory is not so keen.

Zhang Bin coughed twice, "How... how come, of course I didn't come to persuade you."

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued: "Actually, there is something I don't know whether I should say..."

Cao Meilan didn't let him talk about it, but Zhang Bin felt that Zhang Xiaoxi should know about it.

Zhang Xiaoxi heard that the meaning of his words was not right, put down the chopsticks, and said solemnly: "Dad, tell me what's the matter."

She had a bad feeling about it.

Zhang Bin was silent for a long time, as if he had been deliberating in his heart, and finally opened his mouth.

"Xiaoxi, I still don't want you to sue your mother, because...you are not our own."

Not... biological?

When Zhang Xiaoxi heard these words, his heart felt like a thunderbolt, why did such a bloody drama happen to her.

But she has no other emotions other than shock. After all, she is not the original owner, and even if she has memories, she can't empathize with her.

Seeing Zhang Xiaoxi's stunned expression, and the guilt in his heart reaching its peak, Zhang Bin hurriedly made amends, "Xiaoxi, listen to Dad, things are not what you think."

"At that time, your mother and I had been married for three years and had no children. We went to the hospital and found nothing. We wanted to adopt a child, and we found you in the snow not long after."

"At that time, you didn't even have a letter on your body, you only had a piece of jade around your neck. We couldn't help you find your biological parents and sent them to the police station. I guess you were about to enter an orphanage. Your mother and I agreed that you were As a gift from heaven, I adopted you."

"Unexpectedly, in the second year after adopting you, my mother became pregnant with Xiaofeng. Since then, her attitude towards you has changed."

Zhang Bin rubbed his hands, and thought over and over again: "It doesn't matter if you are biased, or if you have any good things, it doesn't matter if you cling to your brother, but your mother never said that she would abandon you, so..."

Before he could say the next thing, Zhang Xiaoxi had already guessed, "So can you please don't tell Cao Meilan, the 130 million will be the cost of supporting me for so many years, is that so?"

Zhang Bin's face suddenly became ugly, and he lowered his head subconsciously, "Xiaoxi, that's not what Dad meant..."

It would be a lie to say that he was not sad, after all, for the original owner, Zhang Xiaoxi really regarded him as a relative, but unexpectedly, he also stood by Cao Meilan's side.

Even if she is a prodigal bitch.

Zhang Xiaoxi sighed deeply, "Okay, I won't sue Cao Meilan, but please tell her that from now on I have nothing to do with the Zhang family, you are no longer my parents, Zhang Xiaofeng is not my younger brother, don't do it in the future Don't cause any trouble for me as a relative!"

Zhang Bin only felt that his face was hot, red up to the base of his neck, his voice was choked and difficult, "Xiaoxi, I know you have suffered a lot at home for so many years, I have wronged you."

Looking at Zhang Bin's tense and nervous face, Zhang Xiaoxi suddenly felt relieved, and the problem that he had thought about for a long time suddenly became clear.

Why she and Cao Meilan have no resemblance at all, and why Cao Meilan is so biased, everything has been answered.

Because she is not biological.

Zhang Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone softened a lot, "Is that jade pendant gone?"

Zhang Bin shook his head slowly, smiling unnaturally, "It's my father's incompetence. Your mother sold the jade pendant for 5 yuan when the family couldn't open the pot that year, leaving only a photo."

As he spoke, Zhang Bin took out a crumpled photo from his pocket, and Zhang Xiaoxi took it.

In the photo, a piece of suet jade with a warm texture is quietly lying on the rough palm, and a vivid phoenix pattern is engraved on the white and moist jade plate. Even the blurred pixels can hardly conceal its crystal clear, warm and elegant.

Suet jade made of this material sells for 5 yuan, Cao Meilan is definitely at a loss.

Zhang Xiaoxi put away the photos carefully, and then asked the two where they found them. Although it has been more than 20 years, it doesn't mean much, but it's better to know than not to know.

"Xiaoxi..." Zhang Bin pursed his lips, and said cautiously: "Dad told you this for no other purpose, I just don't want you to sue your mother to the court, even though she never thought about it in so many years. For the sake of abandoning you, but we are still a family, okay?"

Zhang Xiaoxi looked at each other with a serious tone: "Dad, I am not an ungrateful person. You have raised me for so many years, and I know how to be grateful, so I call you Dad, but Cao Meilan is not my mother, and it is impossible for me to become a family with her." .”

Zhang Xiaoxi pursed his lips and smiled, and poured Zhang Bin a glass of juice, "No matter what, you are still my father, but Cao Meilan and Zhang Xiaofeng, I have nothing to do with them, and I don't have to pay back the 130 million, but you help me Let me convey that Cao Meilan will bring her ID card and household registration book to the notary office next Monday, and I will prepare other materials."
