Chapter 342: Chapter 343: Is Mrs. Nangong a Stepmother?

Just as I was about to roll out of bed, my phone began to ring.

It was Qiangwei calling.

“Hello?”

“Yishan, are you filming today?”

“No, I’m off! I was planning to come see you!”

Hearing this, Gu Qiangwei, who was driving, paused before speaking, “Don’t come to me, I’ve already left the house. I’m on my way to see you, and I’ve brought Mengqi with me.”

“Ah, Mengqi!?”

Gu Qiangwei laughed, “Yes, haven’t you always wanted to meet it?”

“Exactly, have you already set off?”

“Yeah, I’ll be in the downtown area soon. Where are you right now?” She was unsure of Huo Yishan’s current location as she sometimes stayed at her private villa and sometimes at home.

“I’m at home! I’ll be right—” Huo Yishan thought about meeting her immediately, but then it occurred to her that despite knowing Qiangwei for so long, she had never taken her to her home.

“Hmm?” As the voice on the phone hesitated, Gu Qiangwei uttered an inquiring sound.

“Qiangwei, why don’t you bring Mengqi to my place? I’ll send you the address in a bit!”

Gu Qiangwei was well aware of Huo Yishan’s prominent family background and wondered if her family would disapprove of her visit.

“Is that okay?”

“Of course, it’s okay! Before, I was worried about you ‘playing dead,’ so it wasn’t convenient to let too many people know about your existence. That’s why I didn’t dare to bring you home. But now it’s different; of course, you can come to my house. My mom is very hospitable!”

“Alright, then send me the address.”

Although they had met online, their relationship had grown stronger after meeting in person. It was only natural for Gu Qiangwei to visit Yishan’s family, so she didn’t hesitate.

After hanging up, Huo Yishan got out of bed excitedly. Just then, the door was pushed open, and a head peeked in.

“Shanshan, you haven’t gotten up yet?”

“What is it?”

Looking at her daughter, Shu Yulan raised her eyebrows with a smile, “Mom’s going to have tea with Mrs. Nangong. Isn’t it a bit rude to not get up by now?”

Upon hearing this, Huo Yishan frowned, “Mrs. Nangong?”

“Yes!” Shu Yulan nodded, the smile at the corner of her mouth blooming like her namesake, a dazzling and dignified magnolia flower.

But Huo Yishan looked at her mother with suspicion, “The one you’re talking about, it’s not Nangong Feifei’s mother, is it?”

In Jingcheng, the only compound surname family she knew of was Nangong He’s family.

Seeing her daughter’s surprised face, Shu Yulan hesitated, “Hmm… It’s Nangong Feifei’s mother indeed, but not her birth mother!”

Now it was Huo Yishan’s turn to be stunned.

Not her birth mother?

“Could it be that Nangong Feifei has two mothers?”

Shu Yulan pressed her lips together, then stepped in and approached her daughter’s bed, “Nangong Feifei’s mother passed away a long time ago.”

“So Mrs. Nangong is her stepmother?”

Shu Yulan frowned again, “Sort of, but not really.”

Huo Yishan’s eyes narrowed in suspicion as she glanced at her mother, “Mom, what do you mean by ‘sort of but not really’?”

Shu Yulan looked at her daughter, “It means Mrs. Nangong is actually the legitimate wife, while Nangong Feifei’s mother, in her pursuit of becoming Mrs. Nangong, resorted to certain measures. As a result, she got pregnant and then you have Nangong Feifei!”

“So, Nangong Feifei is an illegitimate daughter?” Huo Yishan was surprised and furrowed her brows; this was news to her!

Shu Yulan pursed her lips, “Theoretically, that’s the case, but since she was recognized by the Nangong Family from a young age and brought into the fold, she doesn’t really count as illegitimate, I guess. Anyway, she’s the jewel of the Nangong Family, and all of Jingcheng knows it.”
