Chapter 45: Chance Encounter with Uncle
Wang Yunmei didn’t expect to meet the person in front of her at such a place. She was stunned for a moment before hurriedly greeting, “Brother.”
This person was none other than Wang Yunmei’s elder brother, Wang Yunzhong.
Wang Yunmei was the second child of the Wang family. She had an elder brother, Wang Yunzhong, a younger brother, Wang Yunfa, and a younger sister, Wang Yunzhi.
Although a few of them lived in Baiyun City now, they did not grow up in Baiyun City. The Wang family was from a small mountain village under Baiyun City. The village had a severe concept of favoring males over females. Therefore, since they were young, the elder and younger brothers were their parents’ treasures. This was especially so for the eldest son, Wang Yunzhong. From a young age, everything good in the family was his. Their family conditions were not good and they could only provide for one person to study. That person could only be the elder brother.
Later, Wang Yunzhong got into a university. In that era where university students were scarce, a university student from the village was a huge matter. The elders of the Wang family doted on their eldest son even more. Later, to accompany their son who was studying at a university in Baiyun City, the family moved from the village to the city.
A few years later, the elders of the Wang family bought two houses in Baiyun City by selling vegetables. However, Wang Yunmei and Wang Yunzhi knew that one of the two houses belonged to their elder brother, and the other belonged to their third brother. It had nothing to do with them, the two daughters.
It was also because of his parents’ favoritism that the elder brother, Wang Yunzhong, felt that he was better than his siblings since he was young. After he entered university, he looked down on others. Especially after knowing that his second sister was an escort in the club, he simply cut off all contact with her and never went to visit during the new year.
Wang Yunzhong was also slightly surprised by this chance encounter. He immediately swept his gaze across the imposing lobby of the sales office and then at Wang Yunmei. He felt that Wang Yunmei shouldn’t appear in such a place as he might not even be able to afford a house in such a high-class district.
Frowning, Wang Yunzhong asked coldly, “What are you doing here?”
Wang Yunmei wasn’t close to her elder brother, to begin with. In addition, Wang Yunzhong was a bit overbearing, so Wang Yunmei couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty. “I brought my children out to walk around.”
At the mention of children, Wang Yunzhong turned his gaze to Jian Yu and Jian Ai.
The two of them naturally recognized Wang Yunzhong, so they could only open their mouths and call out, “Uncle.”
Wang Yunzhong nodded expressionlessly. If he treated his biological sister like this, then it was even more impossible for him to show any enthusiasm towards them.
“Yunzhong, who are they?!” At this moment, the woman who had been holding Wang Yunzhong’s arm spoke.
The woman was dressed fashionably and looked to be in her twenties, but Jian Ai knew that her uncle had been married for more than ten years. Her male cousin was a year older than her and there was also a thirteen-year-old female cousin.
It was obvious that this woman was not her aunt but her uncle’s lover.
Facing his sister, nephew, and niece, Wang Yunzhong did not avoid the question at all. He gently patted the woman’s hand and said in a light tone, “My sister, nephew, and niece.”
“Ah! Then what should I call them?” The woman’s tone sounded surprised, but she was smiling. It was as if she was feeling smug because Wang Yunzhong didn’t avoid her.
Wang Yunmei felt a little embarrassed. Based on her relationship with her brother, she couldn’t say some things. Jian Yu and Jian Ai didn’t want to get involved in their uncle’s business either, so they didn’t say anything.
Wang Yunzhong naturally didn’t have anything to say to them. He immediately pretended to look at his watch and said, “I still have something on, so I’ll take my leave.”
After saying this, without waiting for Wang Yunmei to nod, Wang Yunzhong turned around and left with the young woman.
