Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife

Chapter 788 - 789: The Continuation of Tang Wu’s Life

A long-lost daughter?

Shi Mei couldn’t believe it and stuttered, "Dongfang... the elder, isn’t he Xuanya’s grandfather?"

Dongfang Xuyan was Dongfang Kuo’s only granddaughter, and she was a year or two older than Shi Mei.

Is this age difference for real?

There was no hint of embarrassment on Dongfang Kuo’s face; on the contrary, he seemed quite proud, "Yes, but I am indeed your biological father. Here is our DNA test report. I didn’t want to disturb you these past days because I was afraid of a mistake, but now I know, I didn’t get it wrong. You are my daughter with Zhu Ya!"

With that, Dongfang Kuo approached excitedly, "You look so much like your mother!"

Shi Xuebai and Wang Quanxia’s faces showed obvious joy as they said, "When my brother and his wife brought her back home, they went through a great deal of effort. To protect her, the couple even risked their lives, and later we were the ones who painstakingly raised her!"

Wang Quanxia burst into tears as she spoke, "These years have been so hard. Indeed, if she isn’t your own, she’s not your own, one slight mishap and she turns against you. Had it not been for Mr. Dongfang’s visit, we might not have seen her ever again in our lives!"

Shi Xuebai also started to cry uncontrollably following Wang Quanxia’s lead, "For so many years, my wife and I have given our all. If we had something to eat, she surely had something to eat. As she grew up, she felt she wasn’t getting enough and started to accuse us everywhere of abusing her, our conscience is clear to heaven and earth!"

The couple wept together, but upon seeing this, Shi Mei let out a cold laugh, "I didn’t even know you were so good to me."

"That’s enough," someone from the crowd shouted.

"Who doesn’t know about the unscrupulous things you two have done!"

"Save it, how disgraceful you are in front of everyone here!"

"Nobody wants to expose your shabby affairs, have some shame!"

...

Their mocking words left the couple with embarrassingly colorful expressions.

Dongfang Kuo, not wanting this couple to ruin the atmosphere of recognizing his daughter, quickly had people drag them away.

But Shi Mei’s previously good mood had already been spoiled, and seeing Dongfang Kuo’s demeanor, she didn’t show much kindness, "I’m sorry, sir, but I don’t know you. I am a classmate of Xuanya’s, and if you are here to congratulate me as Xuanya’s grandfather, then I gladly accept. But if it’s in another capacity, forcing me to do something else, I must decline."

Shi Mei spoke heavily, and Dongfang Kuo, who had never experienced such a moment, could not bear to respond harshly upon looking at Shi Mei’s face, which bore a 70% resemblance to his lover’s. He had no choice but to step back and accommodate Shi Mei’s arrangements.

The ceremony of acknowledging their kinship was very grand, and in the presence of many witnesses, it was finally announced that Shi Mei now bore the Tang surname.

There happened to be a granddaughter in the Tang Family named Tang Wu, and after Shi Mei changed her name, she became Tang Mei, their names forming a poetic pair like "charming and alluring."

The next day, Shi Mei moved into the Tang Family home.

Jian Yun and Granny Tang arranged for her the room that once belonged to Tang Wu. For years, they had kept this room spotlessly clean, hoping that one day Tang Wu would return and call them "mother" and "grandmother" once again.

Now, even though the person living there was not Tang Wu, to them, she was no different than a continuation of Tang Wu’s life.
