Chronicle of the 70s

Sha Xinyu looked at Li Jianqing who was smiling very amiably. When Li Xianglu came in with a tea tray, she saw everyone sitting around Li Jianqing, so she put the tea on the machine next to them and sat down.

Sha Xinyu said with a smile, "So you are real siblings; you don’t look alike at all."

Li Xianglu frowned slightly, and Iro, who was beside her, tugged at her mother, knowing that she would say it anyway.

Li Jianqing, however, spoke up: "My sister was adopted by Grandpa Li of our clan when she was fourteen. Blood-wise, we are indeed real siblings, but my sister really doesn’t resemble anyone in our family."

Seeing how forthright the boy was, with no intention to conceal anything, Sha Xinyu began to like his honesty. However, no matter how much she liked him, she couldn’t let the two of them develop a relationship further; that would lead to suffering later on!

So she smiled and said, "Jianqing, you saved my Iro and our family is very grateful. Iro’s father would like to acknowledge you as our godson. In the future, we can also help you with your career, giving you a bit less trouble than others. This way, Iro will become your sister, just like Xiao Xiang!"

Iro widened her eyes on the side and said, "Mom, when was this decided? I had no idea."

Sha Xinyu touched her daughter’s shoulder and said with a smile, "Your father and I discussed this. You are our treasure; we are willing to do anything for you."

Li Xianglu’s brows furrowed. What does Ai Luo’s mother mean? Could it be that there’s really something between Er Ge and Iro?

But Li Jianqing smiled and said indifferently, "Auntie, I rescued Iro willingly, without any ulterior motives. Even if you don’t acknowledge me as your godson, I would still treat her like a real sister."
