The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 563 - 0: Confirming Identity
Chapter 563: Chapter 0563: Confirming Identity
At Wang Xiaoya’s home, Yang Cuihua had tied a rope around the tree in front of the door, insisting on hanging herself.
Her wailing and frenetic actions had drawn all the nearby neighbors, who gathered around in a crowd.
After Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya arrived, a neighbor auntie quickly called out, "Little Ya, hurry and persuade your mom! She’s an adult, how can she still not calm down!"
Wang Xiaoya’s head was barraged with shocks, and if it weren’t for Long Fei being there with her, she would have fainted.
She called out anxiously to Yang Cuihua, "Mom, please come down first, let’s talk things out!"
Yang Cuihua shouted at the top of her lungs, "Don’t bother with me, just let me die! Your dad has gambled away all the money, we can’t live like this anymore!"
Wang Xiaoya persuaded, "He hasn’t lost everything, Long Fei just won all the money back."
"Won it?"
Yang Cuihua looked at Long Fei in disbelief.
Long Fei nodded to confirm.
Yang Cuihua let out a cry of joy, just about to pull her head out from the noose.
But in her excitement, the stool under her feet clattered to the ground, and she ended up hanging from the tree.
"Mom!"
Wang Xiaoya was almost scared out of her wits and rushed over to lift her up.
Long Fei extended a hand, and the rope broke.
Yang Cuihua fell down, taking Wang Xiaoya with her and they both landed on the ground.
She rolled on the ground, gasping for air and crying out in shock, "Am I dead, am I going to die?"
Wang Xiaoya shook her head, nearly scared to death herself.
The neighbors were also startled; they thought Yang Cuihua was a goner just a moment ago, never expecting the rope to be so unreliable.
Shortly after, Wang Youde squeezed in from behind, sneaking into the house like a mouse.
Angered, Yang Cuihua roared, "You wretch, you still have the face to come back!"
She picked up a stool from the ground and charged at Wang Youde, throwing it at him.
Wang Youde, scared stiff, quickly ran into the house, yelling, "The kids are right here, can’t you stop hitting me!"
Just before, in front of outsiders, he had been carrying on with airs, but now at home, he was as cowered as a grandson.
Long Fei and the neighbors were amused by his ludicrous behavior.
Wang Xiaoya gave Long Fei a look, signaling him to quickly go break up the fight.
In the courtyard, when the four of them sat down quietly, more than ten minutes had passed.
Wang Youde’s face was covered in bruises, and he didn’t even dare to breathe too hard, let alone say a word.
Looking at Wang Xiaoya, Yang Cuihua spoke up directly, "Little Ya, I just heard your dad saying that you guys won over thirty thousand from Cao Gang and the others? Put all that money in my card, from now on your dad can’t be in charge of the money anymore."
Long Fei took out a cigarette and took a drag, guessing what Yang Cuihua was going to say, unsurprised.
Wang Xiaoya glanced at him, worried that he might disapprove, and stared at Yang Cuihua, saying, "Mom, I can’t give you guys this money."
"Why not?"
Yang Cuihua jumped up anxiously.
Wang Xiaoya explained, "You’ve caused so much trouble in the village, and there must be quite a few people after you. If I give you the money, it would only bring disaster upon you."
Yang Cuihua slapped her thigh and shouted, "Little Ya, did I spoil you for nothing when you were young? What do you mean by attracting disaster? Is there any disaster greater than poverty?"
"Exactly!"
Wang Youde even added from behind.
Wang Xiaoya consoled, "Mom, don’t be anxious! I won’t give you this money, but I will buy you an apartment in the city. In the future, it can be used when Shengli gets married, and you can also stay there whenever you want."
"Buy an apartment?"
Yang Cuihua frowned at the news, sat down, cleared her throat twice, crossed her arms, and said, "That’s more like it."
Wang Youde coughed twice, clearly dissatisfied with the situation.
He was feeling itchy now, having the money in hand he was still eager to gamble a bit more!
But now that the money was in Long Fei’s hands, it wasn’t his place to say much.
Wang Xiaoya said, "Well, that’s settled, then. Let’s not talk about money for now. There’s something I need to confirm with you, and I hope you won’t keep it from me anymore."
"What is it?"
Yang Cuihua and Wang Youde exchanged glances, both looking a bit guilty as they spoke.
Wang Xiaoya asked, "Dad, Mom, what is the truth about my origins? Who is my mother? How did you find me in the beginning?"
Wang Youde hung his head in silence.
Yang Cuihua exclaimed, "You child, is it because we asked you for money that you don’t even want to acknowledge your parents anymore? You are our daughter, what other origins could you have?"
Wang Xiaoya didn’t say much, just handed the envelope to Yang Cuihua.
Yang Cuihua and Wang Youde’s eyes bulged as they looked at it, trembling as they said, "We can’t read, what is this?"
Wang Xiaoya said, "Mom, don’t worry. I just want to know about my own origins. I’m not saying I don’t recognize you. You’re still my parents, and I will never forget that no matter what."
Yang Cuihua rubbed her head and it took a while before she finally spoke up, "Alright then, since you already know, we won’t hide it from you anymore. You are indeed not our biological daughter."
Wang Xiaoya had been prepared, but hearing those words with her own ears still sent a shock through her body and her eyes immediately reddened.
Yang Cuihua pushed Wang Youde, telling him to go get something from under the chest in the house.
She told Wang Xiaoya, "Twenty years ago, on that night, I don’t know what happened, but the thunder was fierce, and lightning was striking fiercely!
At that time, we had just been married for a short while. Late at night, we heard a child’s cries outside our door, which scared us half to death.
Your dad had no choice but to go take a look. To his surprise, there was a woman lying outside with an infant in her arms.
The woman was wearing a beautiful white dress and looked just like a fairy."
She was wounded all over, and her blood had stained her clothes red. Your dad quickly brought her inside and I heated some water to clean her wounds.
Just like that, she stayed at our place for three days. Then she left without a word, leaving behind a hairpin and some jewelry.
I kept the hairpin for you, while your dad pawned the other items! We intended to tell you about these things when you were getting married, so it would be easier for you to accept."
Wang Youde came out of the house carrying a box.
He handed the box to Wang Xiaoya, who opened it.
Inside was a swaddling cloth embroidered with the pattern of a dragon and phoenix, as well as a gold phoenix head hairpin made of yellow metal.
These items were probably left by Wang Xiaoya’s mother intentionally for Wang Youde and his wife to use.
The important items, she kept in the Storage Ring.
Wang Youde and his wife had enough conscience to leave Wang Xiaoya one piece of jewelry—the phoenix head hairpin.
Wang Xiaoya cried woefully, clutching the swaddling cloth, unable to calm down for a long time.
Long Fei stroked her head, comforting her.
Yang Cuihua sighed, unsure how to console her daughter.
Wang Youde showed some responsibility as he said to Wang Xiaoya, "Little Ya, even though we are not your biological parents, we raised you from a young age. In our eyes, you are our daughter, and this will always be your home."
Yang Cuihua said, "Yes, your dad is right. Kin or not, you were raised by us, so you are our own daughter."
Wang Xiaoya choked up, nodding her head, and then went to hug Yang Cuihua tightly in her arms.
Having lived so long, suddenly facing a change in identity, no one would find it easy to accept.
Long Fei, however, was curious about something Yang Cuihua mentioned just now, about that stormy night twenty years ago.
He asked curiously, "Auntie, do you remember the exact day when Little Ya came to your house?"
Yang Cuihua touched her teardrops and said, "I remember, of course, I remember. It was the day of the Winter Solstice, your dad and I had just managed to have a meal of dumplings."
Twenty years ago, the day of the Winter Solstice?
Long Fei was surprised and clicked his tongue. That day was, in fact, his birthday!
