I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 149 Come with me, I'll take you abroad.

"Uh?"

Yin Mengran paused for a moment, blinked, and looked completely bewildered.

Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi both looked at Yin Mengran at the same time; neither of them recognized the woman in front of them.

Yin Mengran quickly recalled everyone she knew, but she just couldn't remember who the woman in front of her was...

"Uh... I'm Yin Mengran, but who are you?"

Yin Mengran asked cautiously,

The woman in front of him was clearly taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly and murmured:

“That’s true. You were very young when I left, so it’s normal that you don’t remember.”

"Ok??"

The woman's words left the three people in front of her in disbelief and utter astonishment.

The implication is... that they've known Yin Mengran for a very, very long time?

Yin Mengran looked completely incredulous, her face blank, speechless, standing there quietly...

The woman then continued speaking:

“My name is Song Wan, and I am your mother’s younger sister, which means I am your aunt.”

"Auntie?!"

Upon hearing this, the three men's eyes widened instantly, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

Especially for Yin Mengran, when she heard the name Song Wan, a vague memory seemed to flash through her mind for a moment.

When she said she was her aunt, for a moment, she seemed to remember someone like that when she was little, but the figure was so blurry that she couldn't see it clearly.

After Song Wan finished speaking with a smile, the smile slowly disappeared, and in an instant, her face was filled with sorrow.

“I only learned about my sister’s situation two weeks ago... After that, I immediately rushed back from abroad... I asked around for many days before I finally found out where you were studying.”

Song Wan spoke words of deep sorrow, her fair face etched with furrowed brows, as if shrouded in dark clouds.

Zhou Heng was startled and turned to look at Yin Mengran. Sure enough, he saw that Yin Mengran's expression had also become serious, and she was pursing her lips.

Zhou Heng was extremely averse to anyone, including himself, mentioning Yin Mengran's family in front of her.

But now, a woman claiming to be Yin Mengran's aunt has appeared before him, leaving him somewhat bewildered and unsure of what to do...

"You...are you really my aunt?"

After a long silence, Yin Mengran finally spoke slowly, asking softly,

In fact, after Song Wan said those words, she was already able to confirm her identity, but she still couldn't quite believe it.

After all, ever since her misfortune, all her relatives had distanced themselves from her, and no one was willing to care for her.

Song Wan was the first relative she had seen in the past two months.

Song Wan let out a breath, her eyes revealing heartache for Yin Mengran. She didn't find Yin Mengran's wary questioning excessive at all; she only felt sorry for her...

Orphaned and without anyone to care for her, this little girl bore it all alone. It's unimaginable how much suffering she endured, yet she's still able to attend school normally...

"I'm so sorry, Auntie was late, you had to suffer..."

Song Wan said softly, opened her arms, took a step forward, and tried to embrace Yin Mengran.

She had thought that after she said those words, Yin Mengran would be unable to hold back her grievances and would burst into tears.

But as she finished speaking and took a step forward, Yin Mengran couldn't help but take a half-step back, shifting slightly behind Zhou Heng...

Zhou Heng also subconsciously stepped in front of Yin Mengran, a completely unconscious action.

At this moment, Song Wan turned her attention to Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi.

She looked up and met the gaze of the tall Zhou Heng; both of their eyes held a hint of confusion...

"Uh..."

Zhou Heng awkwardly turned his head away, avoiding looking at Song Wan.

After all, they were Yin Mengran's family, and this was the first time she had met them; it was understandable that she was nervous...

His current actions were like trying to isolate Song Wan from Yin Mengran, making him even more embarrassed...

"Oh...you...you must be Xiao Ran's classmates? Thank you for your help to Xiao Ran. I need to talk to her alone now."

Song Wan pointed to Yin Mengran behind Zhou Heng and said politely to Zhou Heng,

Zhou Heng had no reason to block Yin Mengran's aunt, so he slowly moved aside.

Yin Mengran still seemed a little timid. Even though she was certain that the person in front of her was her aunt, she wasn't sure if her aunt meant her any harm.

After all, she had already seen many malicious relatives.

Some even believe they have inherited a considerable fortune and want to seize it all...

"It's okay, we're here. Don't go too far."

Zhou Heng whispered something to Yin Mengran.

These words gave Yin Mengran a lot of courage. With Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi by her side, she figured there wouldn't be any danger.

So Yin Mengran nodded, slowly walked forward, and came to Song Wan's side.

They went to a place not far away together.

As Song Wan walked, she glanced back and saw that Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi were still staring intently at them.

Song Wan chuckled and said, "Your classmates are really good to you. I'll treat them to a meal another day to repay them for their help."

Yin Mengran didn't respond. She knew that Song Wan had no idea how much these two had helped her. Could a meal possibly repay such a life-saving debt?

The two didn't go far, standing where Zhou Heng and the others could see them.

Song Wan gently took Yin Mengran's hand and slowly spoke:

"You've worked so hard, you've endured so much... I know you don't know me at all, because I was very young when I left, and now you've grown up so much and become so beautiful, I almost didn't recognize you."

"I...I'm actually okay, because he's here..."

Yin Mengran responded softly, her eyes involuntarily glancing at Zhou Heng not far away.

"he?"

Song Wan frowned slightly, but did not pursue the matter further.

Because that wasn't her goal.

After pausing for a few seconds, she continued:

"Tomorrow or the day after, take me to my sister's grave, to see her. It's such a pity I didn't get to see her one last time..."

Yin Mengran nodded and said:

"Tomorrow is fine, but the day after tomorrow is not so good... I have to go to school the day after tomorrow."

After Yin Mengran finished speaking, Song Wan shook her head and sighed:

"You don't need to continue studying here. I'll process your withdrawal procedures later..."

"Huh? Wh...what?"

"After we visit my sister, you'll come with me, and I'll take you abroad."
