Chapter 331 - 332 Did Not Answer Her Call
Lou Xi hung up the phone with Qin Moxi and stayed in the stairwell for a long time, thinking before deciding to return to the ward.
She understood the importance of the situation; the person she’ll spend the rest of her life with is Qin Mobai, not Lou Jian Country. So if anything changes in the Capital, Lou Xi will definitely go there immediately instead of staying here.
Regarding Lou Jian Country, Lou Xi felt she had already done her best.
If it were someone with a more intense personality, they might have stopped caring about them as soon as they knew they accepted Qin Mobai’s check, let alone now standing by the sickbed trying to fulfill their filial duties.
Just as she was about to push the door open, Lou Xi heard something being said inside the ward but paid no attention to it.
"Dad, why did mom take the money? Is it really like she said, that sister is your child with another woman, and she’s been raising someone else’s child all these years? So did she take the money out of anger?" Lou Nan asked Lou Jian Country.
"Why do you think like your mother?" Lou Jian Country was annoyed. "I told you Lou Xi isn’t my biological daughter, and she isn’t! When she was seven, I managed to get a bit of news about her biological parents through some connections and sent her to Hai City, but then..."
"Dad, what do sister’s biological parents do? Are they particularly poor, which is why they didn’t want her?" Lou Nan probably felt superior only because Lou Xi’s background was even sadder than now.
If she were the little princess of some family, Lou Nan would be unhappy. Why is Lou Xi the little princess and not her?
"Why are you asking so much? What’s it got to do with you?" Lou Jian Country was angry.
"Can’t I just ask?"
Hearing the conversation between Lou Jian Country and Lou Nan, Lou Xi quietly closed the door.
In her memory, there seemed to be no recollection of going to Hai City or of Lou Jian Country finding her biological parents.
Previously, she told Qin Mobai that she didn’t want to find her biological parents because she didn’t want to meet a pair of parents who initially wanted to abandon her. If they weren’t prepared to be parents, they shouldn’t have had a child.
Having a child only to abandon her is simply worse than a beast.
If what Lou Jian Country said now is true, then when she was seven, he took her to Hai City to find her biological parents.
There were two possibilities back then: one, they found the biological parents, but they didn’t want her and forcibly gave her to Lou Jian Country.
Two, they went to Hai City but couldn’t find her biological parents, so Lou Jian Country had to bring Lou Xi back.
But regardless of the possibility, Lou Xi could confirm one thing: from childhood, she was unwelcome in the Lou Family or her biological parents’ home.
Although she always told Qin Mobai she didn’t mind these things, not minding doesn’t mean she wouldn’t be sad.
Who wouldn’t feel heartbroken being abandoned repeatedly?
Thinking of this, Lou Xi took out her phone, desperately wanting to hear Qin Mobai’s voice. It seemed only Qin Mobai’s voice could heal her.
While calling Qin Mobai, she thought she should go to the Capital tomorrow. She had no reason to stay here; after all, all they wanted was money.
But, why wasn’t Qin Mobai answering the phone?
The first time she called, Qin Mobai’s phone was ringing, but no one answered.
Could it be that he’s busy?
But no matter how busy Qin Mobai was in the past, he would always answer her calls.
Is he dealing with some particularly tricky situation now, and hence has no time to answer her call?
