Jiang Yanting had never heard her talk about her mother before, "Your mother..."
"She was just a foolish woman!" Shen Zhixian bitterly smiled, her eyes reddening and a mist forming over them as she looked at the person before her.
"And the relatives who adopted you, were they good to you?"
Under normal circumstances, Shen Zhixian would never bring up such matters.
Perhaps it was the stimuli of today's events and the alcohol that made her speak out, "They call themselves relatives, but they were never close. Their family was already struggling, and the only reason they were willing to take me in was to get their hands on the small inheritance my mother left me after she died."
"Didn't they contact you afterward?"
Jiang Yanting put down his chopsticks and stared intently at her. If they were after money, knowing she had been acknowledged by the Xie Family, how could they not have contacted her?
