Chapter 414 Chinese Sister
Seeing Zheng Yueqiang alive, Song Tingnan felt particularly bored.
There was only a thin old man leaning against the hospital bed, his eyes somewhat vacant. He was nowhere near as imposing and shrewd as others had described, but he did resemble his elder brother somewhat.
Song Tingnan thought, it seems that the claim that he was recuperating here was really true. He probably couldn't even withstand a punch, and he would faint if someone said a word to him.
“Father!” Suzuki Kan called out softly.
Zheng Yueqiang slowly turned his head to look at Song Tingnan. The face was so familiar. "You are..."
"Father, she comes from your motherland, she is Chinese!"
"My surname is Song, and my mother is Song Xiuying." Song Tingnan didn't want to get entangled any longer; she wanted to finish this quickly.
"You... your age, you're not Zhibei, you're her later child, do you have your mother's surname? Did she remarry?" Zheng Yueqiang sat up straight, his eyes becoming sharp.
Song Tingnan said coldly, "No one is waiting for you here!"
"What's going on? Father, who is she?" Suzuki Han was confused. This was her father's daughter in China, but her age didn't match up. Her father hadn't left all these years.
"Heh, second young master of the Suzuki family, would you like to hear a story? I wonder if you can accept that your happiness was stolen." Song Tingnan ignored Zheng Yueqiang's ugly expression and told him about Song Xiuying's family.
“You said my brother Yuejin… he’s blind in one eye, and then he married…”
"Shocking, isn't it? Yes, my biological father is Zheng Yuejin, your younger brother."
Do you know what your family has to do when you go off to pursue your ideal future, never to return, with your fate uncertain?
While you're enjoying wealth and luxury abroad, are we struggling to make ends meet? I really don't understand, since you've climbed so high, is it so difficult to send a message home? Are you afraid they'll ruin your plans? Doesn't your conscience bother you?
Your younger brother went blind in one eye so that the children could have some nutrition. He worked during the day and fished at the dam at night, and then he was swept away by the flood and drowned.
Your mother, unable to bear losing two sons in succession, also passed away.
Can you imagine the scene: two coffins were parked in the house, a woman with four children, being watched by villagers with ulterior motives?
"Don't say anymore, child, it's all my fault." Zheng Yueqiang was in tears. He had thought that life in China was not easy, but he had never imagined that it would be so difficult for them, and that his younger brother would leave so early.
Before he could say anything more, the hospital room door was pushed open. "What crime? You just married me. Who are you? My husband's illegitimate daughter coming to collect a debt?"
A stylishly dressed Japanese woman rushed in and stood in front of Zheng Yueqiang's bed, speaking Chinese, though not very fluently.
Suzuki Han quickly stepped between the two women, "Miss Song... this is my mother, Suzuki Nishi. She meant no harm, she was just... just worried that my father would be hurt."
He stammered as he explained. He was usually eloquent in business, but he was somewhat intimidated by Song Tingnan's cold gaze, since the Suzuki family was in the wrong in this matter.
"Ha!" Song Tingnan sneered.
“Mother, please don’t misunderstand. This is Miss Song from China. She just arrived and only wants to ask Father about some things. Actually, she is also our sister.” Suzuki Han tried to persuade both sides.
“I’m not your sister anymore. I have two older brothers. I don’t need any Japanese brothers.”
Suzuki Han shamelessly said, "Ahem...ahem, a cousin is also a sister, it's good to have an extra brother just in case!"
“Son, don’t be so shameless. They don’t care. Our Suzuki family doesn’t stoop to that level, rushing around to claim a sister. You already have a sister, don’t you?” Suzuki Nishi scolded her son with a stern face.
Suzuki Han rolled his eyes. That brat Suzuki Kaori only calls him "brother" when she wants money. Otherwise, she's as arrogant as a fool. This younger sister in front of him is much more pleasing to the eye.
He silently moved closer to Song Tingnan, expressing his opinion through his actions.
"My name is Song Tingnan. Strictly speaking, my father and mother have no relation to General Zheng."
I went there today simply to protest. Why should someone I have no connection with affect my background check?
"What do you mean? How could I affect your political review? What are you doing now?" Zheng Yueqiang was shocked because he had dragged his family down, and now it was affecting the future of the next generation.
Political vetting? He knew the domestic system well. This kid was destined for a government job and had a bright future, but he was held back because of him. No wonder he was so angry.
“He’s just an attendant from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs! General Zheng holds a high position and wields great power; investigate him yourself.” Song Tingnan said and left.
