Wu Mei saw that Chu Ning was listening and wiped her tears. "Actually, I made an agreement with her to keep this a secret, to not tell a third party about it. However, President Chu sponsored Wu Yi. It's a kindness to our family. It's best if we can help you."
Following Wu Mei's narration, Chu Ning finally understood what had happened.
It turned out that Wu Mei's original name was Xing Lin. She had had a good relationship with her sister, Xing Fei, since they were young. Later on, they even went to university together. Xing Fei married a government official, while Xing Lin married a soldier.
The two of them became pregnant one after the other. When Xing Lin went to visit her husband when she was three months pregnant, Xing Fei was worried. She felt that she should be safe as she was five months pregnant, so she went with Xing Lin.
