Everyone nodded.

“If that’s the case, you should go home and visit our parents more often, Yun Nan. They miss you,” Yun Liu said softly.

Yun Nan was picking up some veggies with her chopsticks when she heard this and paused for a moment. The green veggies slipped off and happened to fall onto Shi Nian’s plate.

Yun Nan was about to apologize when Shi Nian picked up the veggies and ate them, saying, “I know, I know. I should eat more veggies. Don’t worry, honey.

I’m very obedient. See, I ate my veggies.”

Shi Xiu covered her eyes and complained, “Stop spoiling him like this, will you,

Yun Nan? We’re here to eat food, not watch you two’s public display of affection.”

Everyone laughed, and Yun Liu’s words were ignored. Yun Nan didn’t even bother looking at her.

Yun Liu gripped her chopsticks so tightly her knuckles turned white. She sighed heavily, quieting the crowd’s laughter, and stated, “You guys might laugh at this, but I’ll share it anyway. My parents are Yun Nan’s biological parents, but she never set foot in the kitchen since she returned to our family. I never thought I’d be so lucky to be able to eat Yun Nan’s food when even my parents had never had her cooking. We didn’t even know she could cook.

*Sigh* You treat others better than your own family, Yun Nan. What would Mom and Dad think?

Yun Nan didn’t even have to imagine the deluge of nasty comments the netizens must be scolding her with on the live broadcast bullet screen. ‘She sure does love using smear tactics,’ Yun Nan thought.

She glanced at Yun Liu and detachedly replied, “Don’t you remember, Yun Liu? The Yun family kicked me out of the house and disowned me. I’m no longer a member of your family. ”

Yun Liu frantically put down her chopsticks. “What do you mean, Yun Liu? I Imow you have conflicts with Yun Zhang; I admit that Yun Zhang and Mother are slightly partial towards me, but they never said anything about kicking you out! They missed you so much when you went missing for so many years… You—you can’t accuse them like this!”

Yun Liu looked pitiful as tears welled up in her eyes and threatened to fall. Mai Fen frowned; she only just realized that despite this girl’s poor acting performance in movies, Yun Liu was a master actress in real life.

Before Yun Nan could speak, Mai Fen cut in and said, “Yun Nan, I’m very curious about you and your past. Shi Xiu told us a little about it, but you know how flighty she is. She only gave us bits and pieces here and there; it was confusing, and we never got the whole story, so why don’t you tell us? I hope you don’t mind us eating while we listen to your story.”

Yun Liu froze. Yun Nan nodded gratefully at Mai Fen. “My past isn’t all that interesting; it’s just a normal story. But if you guys are willing to listen, I’ll tell you.”

Yan Tang agreed and joked, “I want to clean my ears before listening to your story, but your food is so delicious I couldn’t bear to leave. I’m afraid that if I leave, Xiao Zhao and Le Chao will eat everything!”

Everyone chuckled, and tensions eased. Shi Nian handed Yun Nan a drink to help moisten her throat. Yun Nan smiled as she accepted it and took a sip.

Yan Tang covered her eyes and mock-grumbled, “Like Shi Xiu said, enough with the PDAs already!”

Shi Xiu covered her mouth and laughed. Yun Nan felt a little embarrassed; she quickly changed the topic and began to tell her story. “When I was four years old, my whole family went to an ancient town for a vacation, and then I got separated from my parents. I met my adoptive parents, and they took me everywhere to look for my family. I was very young back then and couldn’t express myself clearly, but even so, my adoptive parents took me all over town —and even the areas around the town—to help me search for my parents, but to no avail.”

“They called the police and returned to where they found me. They waited there for half a month, but there was still no news, so they decided to stay in that ancient town and opened a small restaurant in the area where they found me.

They made a living there while waiting for my parents to come looking for me.

Thus, I grew up in that small town, in that small restaurant.”

“My dad was a skilled cook, so our restaurant had good business. That area was a tourist attraction, so our customers were mostly tourists. Later, due to external reasons, fewer tourists came to visit, and the restaurant’s business suffered. However, my parents still made enough to support our family. They were very optimistic people, so we lived quite happily despite the town’s gradual decline.”

“The people in that small town were simple and kind. Even though they knew about my background—knew that I was adopted—no one used it to discriminate against me or bully me. I was a happy child, so I wasn’t all that keen on finding my biological parents. My mom would often lecture me for my unfilial attitude and say how sad my biological parents must be, having lost

me..”
