Chapter 7 - Who Is the Father

Su Jinyi stared at her Mother He's tombstone in a daze, while Nanny Wang beside her called out to her a few times before she came back to her senses.

"The madame is a very gentle and kind woman, sigh …"

In these few days of interaction, Su Jinyi knew that Nanny Wang was not a person who liked to sigh, but today, she heard two of Nanny Wang's sighs in a row.

"Did He Ruiting come back to see the old lady often?"

"Teacher usually comes back to see the madame on her birthday. This is the first time you've come back." Nanny Wang glanced at Su Jinyi and added in a light voice, "This is also the first time that mister has brought people back together with you."

The meaning of Nanny Wang's words was that during this honeymoon, He Ruiting had specially brought her to see his mother.

Although He Ruiting had told her that he would take her to see someone on the first day he came to New Zealand, she still felt that it was better if he didn't. Su Jinyi had guessed who that person was, and had also thought that she would bring her to see his family. However, she never expected that she would bring her to her mother's tomb.

"Has your husband been living alone ever since the madame passed away?" As he was speaking, Su Jinyi thought about what happened to her in the Su Family after her mother passed away.

"Sigh …" Nanny Wang let out another heavy sigh.

He Ruiting did not have any family members, but all of the He family's servants and nannies cared more about this mister than any other master or servant.

After a moment of silence, the Nanny Wang opened his mouth and said, "After the madame left, mister went to Europe to study. At that time, he was only ten years old and was still a child. "

"What about his father?" Su Jinyi asked this question very carefully, even though she had already guessed in her heart that He Ruiting's father would treat him the same way Su Yuancheng treated her.

"I don't know, I've never seen that person either."

Nanny Wang's answer was outside of Su Jinyi's expectations.

Even the people around He Ruiting didn't know who his father was?

"He must be very sad."

Su Jinyi, who had been staring at the tombstone the entire time, did not notice that Nanny Wang, who was standing beside her, had a gratified smile on his face.

Back then, Nanny Wang accompanied Mother He to emigrate to New Zealand. After Mother He passed away, she did not return home, but stayed at the He family's villa in New Zealand. Every week, she would come to the cemetery to sweep the old lady's grave. Therefore, she didn't take care of He Ruiting for long. Even so, He Ruiting who had been silent since childhood had always been a concern to her.

Now that He Ruiting was married, he had someone by his side that could take care of him. After so many years of worrying, Nanny Wang's eyes were finally filled with tears.

"Nanny Wang, what's wrong? Is it because I'm feeling unwell? " Su Jinyi's gaze left her mother's tombstone and came across Nanny Wang's slightly reddened eyes. She immediately asked with concern.

"Thank you Madam for your concern. I'm fine, but I'm just very happy. Madame, you are as kind and gentle as the madame. " Nanny Wang quickly raised her hand to stop her tears, revealing a kind smile.

It had been so many years, but this was the first time Su Jinyi heard someone saying that she was gentle and kind. Ever since she was five, when her mother passed away, Wu Wanxin brought Su Jingran to the Su Family and took away everything that originally belonged to her. She secretly swore that she would take back everything that she had lost one by one. She had never thought of being a gentle and kind person.

"Madam, we've been out for a long time. Let's go back."

Su Jinyi nodded, without objecting, she followed the Nanny Wang in the direction of the villa.

"I know that you must be very curious about what happened to me in the past, but after all, I haven't been taking care of you for long. After you leave, I can only see you every year at the old lady's time."

Su Jinyi nodded and said softly, "I understand."

"But even if I hadn't seen him sad, anyone can imagine how hard it would be to bear the pain of losing your only loved one."

Normally, Nanny Wang was not a talkative person. Today, after arriving at Mother He's tomb, she started to talk a lot more. She could tell from every word that she was pampering and doting towards He Ruiting.

Nanny Wang was not He Ruiting's relative, but his concern for him was no less than anyone else's. And Nanny Lin, Uncle Xu, they were taking care of him like the elders in the family.

"I'll stay with him." Su Jinyi himself didn't know whether these words were said to comfort the Nanny Wang, or to empathize with He Ruiting who had a similar experience with him, or maybe her feelings toward him had a little changed.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, I lost my composure." The Nanny Wang certainly wouldn't doubt Su Jinyi's feelings towards her, but she couldn't help but feel pain in her heart whenever she thought about how a ten-year-old child would be left alone ten thousand kilometers away from home.

After returning to her room, Su Jinyi curled up on the large and soft little sheepskin sofa, thinking back to what Nanny Wang had said on the way there, He Ruiting's face also surfaced in her mind.

That day, He Ruiting had left in a hurry and only told her to obediently stay here. He did not say when he would return, or when she could return. For the next few days, there was no news of him.

Su Jinyi suddenly wanted to call He Ruiting. She wanted to hear his voice.

When she found He Ruiting's phone number in his contact list, she did not dial the number for a long time.

He Ruiting did indeed display a very close relationship with her, and could even be said to be pampering her. But to Su Jinyi, this sort of intimate action seemed to be done intentionally.

She hesitated for a long time while holding the phone, but finally gave up.

Since He Ruiting left in a hurry and there was no news even after he returned, then it must be because he encountered an extremely troublesome matter. He must be too busy, so he did not have time to contact her.

Moreover, this marriage between her and He Ruiting was originally with the nature of a trade. As long as he could fulfill his promise, what else was there to think so much about?

After fighting back for a while, Su Jinyi decided to throw her phone to the side, shake her head, and drive He Ruiting's face out of her mind.

"Madam, sir has just called and wants you to go back. The butler has booked your flight for this afternoon. The driver will take you to the airport after lunch. "

Nanny Wang's voice interrupted Su Jinyi's thoughts.

"Okay, thank you Nanny Wang."

Su Jinyi looked at the phone that she threw to the side, and an indescribable feeling arose in her heart.

He Ruiting might still have some true love for her.

After hearing the news that he was going back in the afternoon, Su Jinyi's mood became much better, and all her previous uneasiness and worry were tossed to the side.

After lunch, Su Jinyi took advantage of the time when Nanny Wang was packing her luggage to make herself more exquisite makeup in the bathroom.
