Chapter 221 221. Adoptive Parents
Chen Yan arrived at the door of the registration office early in the morning. She was waiting for Zhang Hongzhi with a stern expression.
She originally thought that given Zhang Hongzhi's personality, he would delay arriving until the last minute, but unexpectedly he arrived at the door of the registration office ten minutes early.
When the two met, they looked at each other coldly and didn't speak.
This scene might attract attention in other places, but this is a divorce site, full of couples who can't stand each other.
They must all dislike each other, otherwise they wouldn't be thinking about divorce, so in comparison, Zhang Hongzhi and Chen Yan's appearance is not that strange.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the door opened. Zhang Hongzhi and Chen Yan hurried in, got their tickets and lined up. When it was their turn, the staff asked a series of questions. When they were asked whether they confirmed the divorce, both parties agreed to the divorce very decisively.
The staff member seemed to want to persuade them, but seeing that Zhang Hongzhi's face darkened and he was about to get angry, they didn't dare to say anything and quickly helped the two to complete the divorce procedures.
After getting the divorce certificate, Zhang Hongzhi quickly got up and left, looking as if he had something urgent to do. Because he got up so quickly, the stool even made a loud noise by rubbing against the ground.
The staff was shocked, but Chen Yan still looked indifferent.
She put away the divorce certificate, got up and left. She calculated how long the remaining money in her card would last, and thought about where to find a job.
Although she still has 5,000 yuan in her bank card, City A is a high-consumption city and she has no place to live now.
Not only do I have to pay the rent, I also have to consider food and clothing, and five thousand yuan is simply not enough.
She must find a job as soon as possible, otherwise she will definitely end up sleeping on the streets...
Because Chen Yan was thinking about something, she didn't notice at all that since she turned around and left, someone's eyes had been fixed on her face.
Just as she was about to step out of the gate, a female voice suddenly called out from behind her.
"and many more!"
Chen Yan stopped inexplicably and looked back subconsciously, only to see a young woman dressed fashionably jogging towards her.
"W-what's your name?"
If it was in the past, Chen Yan would definitely ignore this kind of inexplicable chat, but at this moment, she suddenly thought of what Jin Jiu said to her yesterday -
'If you want to find your family, then on the day of your divorce, if someone stops you and wants to talk to you, remember to stop, this is your only chance.'
Could it be... that the girl in front of her is her family?
Looking at the beautiful girls who were dressed very luxuriously, Chen Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
How could such a person be related to her?
Although she thought so, she still answered the other party's question subconsciously.
"I'm Chen Yan, what can I do for you?"
"Chen Yan..." The beautiful woman murmured to herself, as if thinking about something.
While she was thinking, another woman who was also dressed very beautifully walked towards her.
"Linlin, what's wrong with you? Did you meet someone you know? Why are you so flustered?"
Although the woman who was speaking was in her thirties, she looked about the same age as the girl in her twenties named Linlin because she took good care of herself.
While asking Shen Yuanlin questions, the other party couldn't help but cast his eyes on Chen Yan. When he saw Chen Yan's dry and yellow hair, haggard face, and long-sleeved clothes that were about to fade after washing, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of contempt in his eyes, and even very obvious disgust.
Shen Yuanlin did not answer the woman's question. The woman seemed a little dissatisfied, but when she saw a gentle and elegant man walking in from the door, her attention was instantly diverted.
Chen Yan discovered that after this man came, the woman followed the man to get the ticket. It seemed that the girl in front of her was not the one who wanted a divorce. She should have come with the woman just now, and the one who really wanted a divorce was also the woman just now.
After the woman left, Shen Yuanlin breathed a sigh of relief. She raised her head and looked at Chen Yan seriously for several times, then said nervously, "Can you come with me for a while? I have something to talk to you about. Our current position is a bit unfavorable."
Just now, Shen Yuanlin called Chen Yan at the door, which means that they are now blocking the door, which is indeed not good.
Chen Yan nodded, then followed Shen Yuanlin outside.
"Well, I want to ask you a few questions. These questions may be a bit presumptuous, but they are really important to me. I hope you can answer them. Thank you very much!" Shen Yuanlin is obviously a girl with good family education.
Although she also said that she might ask some very presumptuous questions later, her attitude now was really good. Not only was her wording very polite, but she even bowed to Chen Yan to express her gratitude.
It is no exaggeration to say that Shen Yuanlin's action directly scared Chen Yan.
"If you have any questions, just ask. If I can answer them, I will answer them." If I can't answer them, I naturally won't answer them.
Although she had a good impression of the girl in front of her, and because of Jinjiu's words, she suspected that she was related to her family, but this did not mean that Chen Yan would answer any questions without reservation.
Shen Yuanlin smiled, which made her already delicate and lovely appearance even more vivid.
"How old are you this year?"
Chen Yan pursed her lips and said, "Thirty-seven."
He’s only thirty-seven!
Shen Yuanlin was very shocked.
Because Chen Yan at this time looked like a person in her forties or fifties, mainly because she had suffered too much torture, and her health was not good, her skin was not good, and her dress was very simple and ordinary, so her age was forcibly added a dozen years.
But... at this age...
"Where is your hometown?"
"I'm sorry, I can't remember."
"Ah?" Shen Yuanlin was a little stunned.
"I was adopted by my adoptive parents, and they moved once when I was very young, so I can't remember it."
"Adoptive parents?" Shen Yuanlin's heart skipped a beat. She had originally just wanted to ask this very friendly-looking woman in front of her with a subtle attitude, but the result of the question surprised her.
"Well, is there any problem?" Chen Yan looked at Shen Yuanlin with complicated eyes.
At this point, she was almost certain that the Shen Yuanlin in front of her should be her family member.
Because normal people would not ask about other people's family affairs casually, let alone ask special questions such as age and address.
It seems that he wants to find out about her background and test whether he has any connection with her.
