Chapter 978: 236: The Influence of the Top National Scholar!

With Wu Yanyun’s words, Ni Cuihua felt somewhat better.

No matter what, Wu Yanyun was still willing to forgive her.

At noon, Wu Jinshu returned.

Because he had just come back from the construction site, he was covered in dust, so Wu Yanyun quickly stood up to take the tools from Wu Jinshu’s hands, “Dad, you’re back. Go take a shower, and we can start eating soon.”

“Alright,” Wu Jinshu greeted Shangguan Dehui, Ni Cuihua, and the others, then went to the bathroom to shower.

Watching the sensible Wu Yanyun, Ni Cuihua’s eyes reddened slightly. Fearing that others would notice, she hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her eyes.

She wondered, if those three children hadn’t been abandoned back then, what would the result be now…

Soon after, Wu Jinshu finished his shower, and the food was laid out on the table.

Ni Yang had taught Yan Erju quite a few cooking tips that day.

Yan Erju greatly benefited and said with a smile, “Yangyang, you’re amazing. I’ve been cooking for most of my life and never knew that adding a bit of salt to the oil when frying fish would prevent it from sticking to the pan.”

There were also tips like adding a few drops of cooking oil when boiling rice to make it whiter, fluffier, and sweeter…

Ni Yang said, “I heard it from the chefs at the restaurant; they have rich life experiences, I wouldn’t know these things.”

In fact, these were all experiences Ni Yang had accumulated in her past life, but now, after all, she was just a teenage girl, whose life experience couldn’t possibly be so rich.

Since the Wu Family had many children, Ni Yang had brought a two-tiered big cake that day.

Ni Yang was a person who could create a pleasant atmosphere. She led everyone in singing the birthday song, “Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you…”

The children’s voices were especially sweet and lovely.

Yan Erju, wearing a birthday hat, stood in front of the birthday cake with a face full of happiness.

It all felt like a dream to her.

“Before blowing out the candles, Godmother, make a wish first,” Ni Yang continued.

Yan Erju said with a smile, “Then I wish that next year Xiaoyun can get into a good university just like Yangyang, and that our whole family stays safe and healthy.”

Ni Yang smiled slightly, “Godmother, you have to make a wish in your heart, saying it out loud won’t work.”

Yan Erju immediately put her hands together, “Right, right, I’ll make it in my heart then.”

This was Yan Erju’s first birthday of this kind, and it was also her first time eating a birthday cake, and likewise, it was the first time for Wu Jinshu and the children to have birthday cake.

The cream’s sweetness, the cake’s softness, and the fruit’s fresh aroma made the cake simply delicious!

On the way back from the Wu Family, Ni Cuihua said, “Dehui, the more I look at Yanyun, the more she reminds me of Erniu. Do you think she looks like me?”

Shangguan Dehui nodded, “I think so too; the child has been well-raised by the Wu Family, she’s very sensible.”

This was also the most comforting thing for Ni Cuihua.

As she spoke, Ni Cuihua turned towards Ni Yang, “Yangyang, when can we expect the results from that paternity test you mentioned last time?”

Ni Yang, one hand on the steering wheel, the other brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear, replied, “It should take about a month or so. Mom, don’t worry; once the results are out, the Hospital will notify us.”

Ni Cuihua nodded and continued, “Yangyang, if Yanyun really is your second sister, do you think she will forgive me?”

Ni Yang thought for a moment, “That’s hard to say…” Although she had already prepared Wu Yanyun earlier, but after all, the person who was abandoned was her; sometimes, a bystander’s perspective and an experiencer’s feelings are completely different.

Ni Cuihua sighed, “I wronged those three children…”

Shangguan Dehui put an arm around Ni Cuihua’s shoulder, “Daya, it’s not your fault.”

…

It was soon time for the new school term, and Ni Yang had previously promised Han Xiaoyu to treat her to a meal.

Ni Yang cycled to the Han Family to find Han Xiaoyu.

When she arrived, Han Xiaoyu wasn’t at home, but Han’s mother, seeing Ni Yang, was especially enthusiastic, “Yangyang, you’re here to see Xiaoyu, aren’t you? Come in and sit down. Xiaoyu isn’t home right now, I’ll go call her for you.”

Although Han’s mother had only met Ni Yang once, she had seen her again on television.

Ni Yang was the national top science scorer!

Thinking that her daughter was classmates with the top science scorer made Han’s mother feel honored!

And Han’s mother was very grateful to Ni Yang.

Without Ni Yang’s tutoring, Han Xiaoyu wouldn’t have been able to get into a first-tier university.
