Chapter Twenty-Six Eternal Brothers

  I stared at Xie Yi's mother, who had been staring at me with a complex look in her eyes. I even suspected that she might have taken a liking to me, but thinking about it being Xie Yi's mother, what if the generations got mixed up?

  Although I was daydreaming, I still forced myself to say "Auntie" with a swollen mouth, shouting awkwardly at Xie Yi's mother: "Auntie."

  As soon as I shouted, Xie Yi's mother came to her senses and immediately supported me, anxiously saying: "Quickly go in, I have already called a doctor to wait."

  I nodded and followed him in. I knew it was already past 7 pm, and most doctors would have gone home for the day. It's likely that Mrs. Xie had helped arrange this. All my procedures were taken care of by Mrs. Xie, including some medical examination equipment and even the cost of taking pictures, which didn't require me to pay a single penny. This really made me grateful to Xie Yi and his mother, I never thought they would be able to help me so much.

  At this time, I was already lying in the ward. After examination, although my bones were not broken, but my internal injuries were very serious. There was bleeding in many places, and on top of that, the skin on my head was split open by Cai Chen's kick. At this moment, almost every part of my body was damaged.

  Xiao Xi was still by my side at this time, I tightly held Xiao Xi's small hand and continued to happily look at her. I found that even if I was hurt, as long as Xiao Xi was by my side, I would be very happy. Xie Yi and Yang Li naturally wouldn't come to be a third wheel, so they walked out, I looked at them standing outside the door seemingly chatting with Xie Yi's mom about something.

  I didn't pay much attention and continued to follow Xiao Xi's lead. Suddenly, Xie Yi's mother walked in, full of concern, asking me how I was feeling now. At the same time, she called Xiao Xi out for a moment, and Xiao Xi naturally didn't say anything and left.

  I'm much better now, and with Xiaoxi by my side, I feel happy. I expressed my gratitude to Xie Yu's mother, saying that meeting them was a blessing for me. Xie Yu's mother smiled slightly and gently patted my head, and at that moment, I felt the warmth of having a mother by my side, it was so intimate.

  At this time, she asked me to stretch out my right arm for her to see. Although I was a bit puzzled, I naturally wouldn't refuse. When I rolled up my sleeve and exposed that slightly thin arm, Mrs. Xie Yi suddenly changed her expression, and her body also trembled slightly. She gently placed her hand on my tattoo, looking very carefully.

  "Xiaomu, from now on call me Auntie Xie, got it?" Xiaoyu's mom said to me.

  I nodded immediately, but I was extremely suspicious in my heart. Before that, I had seen the tattoos on both of their arms with Xie Yi, and they were really identical. Even if they were from the same person, they wouldn't be so similar. Adding to what Auntie Xie felt when she touched me before, I really suspected whether she was my real mother or not.

  I'm now very confused in my mind. What makes me puzzled is that I've never seen my mom since I was a kid, not even a photo of her. I asked my dad, but he's never told me anything about it. Now there's someone with the same birthmark as me, and he only has one mom, Xie Yi, whose father is also unknown. I can't help but suspect that our two families are related or maybe we're even from the same family. Especially after Aunt Xie saw my tattoo, she became more concerned about me, this concern is absolutely not like how you would look at someone else's child, it's more like looking at your own child.

  "I finally couldn't help but ask: 'Auntie Xie, am I related to you? Are Yitian and I biological brothers?'"

  When I asked this, Aunt Xie paused for a moment. However, I found that Aunt Xie's eyes seemed very complicated. If all of these were fake, then her eyes told me there must be some connection; if it was true, but I still haven't felt it.

  I'm a bit stunned, especially when I think that this woman might be my own mother, my heart starts racing. I've always blamed my mom for abandoning me. If this Aunt Xie is indeed my mom, how am I supposed to face her?

  "Xie Aunt didn't say a word, but I couldn't help blurting out the grievances in my heart. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I ended up saying to Xie Aunt: 'I've never seen my mom since I was little, and I don't even know what she looks like. She abandoned my dad and me. I've always been living with my dad, but he would often leave home and only come back after a long time. I feel like I'm an unwanted child who no one cares about. All I want to know is what happened to my family. Xie Aunt, you must know something, right? You must have some connection to my family. Are you... are you my real mom?'"

  My tears began to flow slowly, but I had been suppressing myself from thinking about these things all along. But today, seeing Auntie Xie and Xie Yi, I suddenly felt the injustice in my heart.

  Auntie Xie tilted her head and then handed me a few paper towels. Then she actually asked me, "What's your dad's name?"

  I was shattered by Aunt Xie's words, all my guesses were broken. Could it be that Aunt Xie is not really my mother? Otherwise, why wouldn't she know who my father is? But if so, how can the tattoos of Xie Yi and me be explained, and how can Aunt Xie be so good to me be explained?

  "My dad's name is Luo Yan." I said with tears in my eyes.

  Auntie Xie was only slightly surprised, then nodded. She said she wasn't my biological mother and that she only had one child, Xie Yi. Then she told me not to blame my mother, saying that my mother must have been in a lot of trouble. And asked me to treat her as my mother from now on.

  I looked at Aunt Xie's eyes, and it didn't seem like she was pretending. Aunt Xie really wasn't my biological mother, otherwise she wouldn't talk like that. But how to explain all this? I said Aunt Xie must have known my dad and mom, I asked her what had happened to my family, why it had become like this.

  Auntie Xie didn't deny knowing about our family's situation, but instead told me not to think too much and that everything would become clear later on. Besides, she wasn't very clear about these things either.

  I can sense that Auntie Xie doesn't know much either, otherwise she wouldn't even know what my dad's name is. At this time, Auntie Xie called out to Xie Yi and he followed her in, only Yang Li and Xiao Xi were left standing outside.

  Xie Aunt held my hand with one hand and Xie Yi's hand with the other. Then she put our hands together, and very seriously told us: "Xiao Mu, Xiao Yi, remember, you must not become enemies, you must unite. You are a pair of good brothers, forever good brothers."
