Chapter 1069: Who’s Your Daughter?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

If they had known Qiao Xi’s ident.i.ty earlier, why would they spend so much effort to look for Fang s.h.i.+yun? Qiao Xi’s ident.i.ty was much higher than Fang s.h.i.+yun’s. Her ident.i.ty was the best connection.

At the thought of this, Xia Yunlou could not help but be excited. She then realized that she had lost such an outstanding daughter who could bring her glory. She suddenly regretted it.

However, from the first time she saw Qiao Xi, the two of them were like enemies. Qiao Xi only had her adoptive mother in her heart and was utterly unwilling to listen to her, her biological mother. Xia Yunlou was very clearly aware in her heart that no matter how formidable Qiao Xi was now, it had nothing to do with her because Qiao Xi would utterly not bring any benefits to the Xia family or her.

Xia Yunlou suppressed her anger and tried her best to make her tone gentle. “Xi Xi, since you’re Mr. Fang’s senior, why didn’t you tell us earlier? Did you deliberately make Mengyan look bad? I know there are some conflicts between the two of you, but you’re cousins, after all. How could you ruin Mengyan’s future? Quickly tell Mr. Fang that all of this is a joke between you and the Xia family. Let him—”

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Fang s.h.i.+yun. He glared at her and pointed at Xia Yunlou as he berated, “I heard that you’re Senior’s biological mother, but the moment Senior appeared, you started accusing her indiscriminately. Xia Mengyan said that Senior cheated and you believed her!”

Hearing Fang s.h.i.+yun’s reprimand, Xia Yunlou’s face was ashen. She had never been reprimanded in public before. Moreover, this person was a young man. Her face was filled with shame. Earlier, she had felt slightly guilty toward Qiao Xi for a moment, but now, she was completely occupied by anger.

Xia Yunlou straightened her neck and said, “It’s all because Xi Xi deliberately hid it. If it weren’t for her…”

“Who said that my senior was hiding it?” Fang s.h.i.+yun did not give her a chance to explain herself and shouted, “My senior has never deliberately hidden anything. She does know calligraphy. The compet.i.tion in Li City University was also broadcasted live online. After that, the university clarified this matter. It’s obvious that as her mother, you never paid attention to her and even blamed her!

“Xia Mengyan is just your niece, and her father is only your half-sibling. You’re doing your best for this niece, but you’re so mean to your daughter! You’ve been separated from my senior for 20 years. You should be doing your best to make up for her lack of maternal love all these years, but what have you been doing? How do you treat her? You actually have the cheek to criticize her now?”

Xia Yunlou lowered her head and bit her lip. The intense anger and humiliation made her entire body tremble. Was Qiao Xi just going to watch her be reprimanded by an outsider?

Seeing that Qiao Xi was silent, Xia Yunlou gritted her teeth and said, “I watched Mengyan grow up since she was young. What’s strange about me treating her well? I originally wanted to treat Xi Xi well too! But after she came back, she went against me and even did something wrong. My impression of her is naturally bad, so the first thing I think of when something bad happens is her. She could have explained it clearly! I didn’t want to wrong her either!”

“What did she do wrong?” Fang s.h.i.+yun asked coldly. “She’s your daughter. Even if she did something wrong, you should patiently guide her to correct herself and not just criticize her. Moreover, my senior isn’t wrong. It’s all your fault! I really don’t understand who’s your daughter, Xia Mengyan or my senior!”

Cold sweat broke out on Xia Yunlou’s forehead. Xia Ji’s expression suddenly changed.

Qiao Xi raised her eyes slightly, her gaze wandering between Xia Ji and Xia Cheng as she sized them up.

After a long silence, Qiao Xi suddenly sneered. Her sudden laugh caused the nerves of everyone in the Xia family to tense up again. They raised their eyes in succession and glared fiercely at Qiao Xi.

Xia Yunlou was at a loss. Then, as if to prove something, she deliberately raised her voice. “Xi Xi is my daughter! I’m biased toward Mengyan because she grew up by my side. I treat her as my biological daughter, but Xi Xi has only just reunited with me. I don’t know her well enough, so…”

Fang s.h.i.+yun interrupted coldly, “Senior, Madam Xia said that she’s your biological mother! Do you acknowledge her?”

Qiao Xi imperceptibly withdrew her sizing gaze, then chuckled. “I’m very sorry, but Madam Xia Yunqiu is my mother.”

Fang s.h.i.+yun turned to look at the pale Xia Yunlou and said with a hint of disdain, “Madam Xia, did you hear that? My senior’s mother is called Xia Yunqiu. Don’t use this t.i.tle to show off in the future because you’re not worthy!”
