Yu Fang didn’t know how to rebut her son’s words, but her intention to bring back all three children hadn’t wavered.
She tried once more to convince her youngest son, "Xu Fan, but we’re their closest blood relatives, aren’t we? Your brother would surely want them to know their roots."
Xu Fan shook his head coldly, his expression unreadable. "The children’s adoptive father is just as much their blood relative as we are. You think he, as their adoptive father, their actual uncle, is going to forgive the way my eldest brother treated their mother back then? Mom, if you don’t want the children to hate you, I suggest you leave their family’s life undisturbed."
Yu Fang didn’t expect her son to be so firm on the matter.
Xu Fan had predicted that she would find out about the three children’s situation eventually, but he didn’t think it would happen so quickly. Still, his decision was unwavering. The children would fare far better with the Su family than they ever would with the Xu family.
As for the inheritance left behind by his late brother, Xu Fan planned to transfer it into the children’s names once he had the paperwork in order. It was the least he could do to repay them for what his brother had left them.
With that, Xu Fan turned and left the room.
In the corner, Xu Sheng, who had been lurking there, was still frozen in shock. He had merely wanted to ask about his mother’s situation at Guangcheng Prison, but what he overheard was nothing short of earth-shattering.
Su Bing and his siblings were the biological children of his late uncle. That meant they were his cousins.
For the first time, Xu Sheng felt his thoughts jumbled in confusion. He didn’t sleep well that night, and the next morning, he went to school in a daze.
He was so out of sorts that the teacher had to call his name three times before he responded. Even when the teacher asked him to come up with a solution to a problem, Xu Sheng’s mind was completely absent, and he miscalculated the answer in a way that was entirely out of character for him.
His classmates, noticing his odd behavior, gave him curious glances.
Su Bing was especially aware of the change. Xu Sheng had always been a diligent student, so it was strange to see him make such a careless mistake. If it wasn’t a slip in his academic abilities, then something must have been weighing heavily on his mind. But Su Bing wasn’t the type to pry into other people’s business.
