Under everyone’s gaze, Ling Xiao narrated the events from that time with a complicated face.

“Eighteen years ago, I was pregnant with Xinxin. At the same time, Little Juan was also pregnant.”

She was very conflicted as she talked about it.

“However, no one knew who the father of her baby was. I didn’t have a good relationship with her, so she couldn’t have told me. What I did know was that she found a married man, and she has always wanted to compete with me.”

Ling Xiao’s heart was heavy talking about these family scandals.

Ling Juan was two years younger than Ling Xiao, and the two sisters were not on good terms because of their different birth mothers.

Ling Xiao had a gentle nature and did not like to fight, but Ling Juan always liked to compete with her.

Of course, in the end, Ling Juan usually lost.

“I learned afterwards that the father of her child is you, big brother.”

Ling Xiao’s finger pointed toward Qi Zhiqiang.

Qi Zhiqiang was startled, and then the memories in his mind were turned over.

“Right! I remember now! She is called Juanjuan!”

Everyone couldn’t help but suddenly realize that it was really Ling Juan!

“We gave birth together in the same hospital, but after giving birth, she disappeared with the baby in her arms.”

Ling Xiao was in a bit of a low mood when she talked about what happened back then.

“Did Little Juan come to you?”

The old man looked to Qi Zhiqiang.

“No…”

“Really no?” The patriarch narrowed his eyes. “Tell me the truth right now!”

“Um… actually yes!” Qi Zhiqiang swallowed and stammered, but finally gritted his teeth and admitted, “She did tell me about it, but I thought she was lying at the time! So I said that it couldn’t be my child and told her to take the child and get the hell out of here.”

The crowd’s faces darkened.

No wonder Ling Juan left.

Anyone with a little self-respect would have left.

However, why did Ling Juan’s child end up in some other place?

“You bastard!”

The old man wanted to beat this bastard to death.

He had been screwing around when he was young, and he screwed up big time!

“I- I didn’t know she was really pregnant! She didn’t tell me these things afterwards! She didn’t bring the baby to me either, so how was I supposed to know?!” Qi Zhiqiang defended himself.

If he knew Ling Juan had really given birth to a child, how could he not admit it?

This child was so excellent and outstanding, so it was like winning the lottery too!

With such an offspring, he could also become the head of the family.

Thinking about this, Qi Zhiqiang also felt a bit self-pity.

It was a pity that he didn’t know that before!

Looking at Qi Zhiqiang’s reaction, Xia Xibei’s expression did not change.

Liu Yiqin looked at the people around her with a bewildered and helpless face.

She had thought before that relationships in the Qiao family were messy, but she didn’t expect that they were just child’s play!

The drama in the Qiao family was nothing compared to a big family like the Qi family!

Thinking of this, she looked at Xia Xibei with pity.

She didn’t know how much hardship this kid had gone through.

Xia Xibei, however, was not impressed by their reaction.

“If it is as you say, why did I become a child of the Xia family?”

Her attitude was calm, as if she was not the main character, but a bystander.

To her, whoever her parents were didn’t matter. After all, she had lived without them for many years and was past the age of needing parents.

Moreover, learning about her parents did not move her either.

Chang Qianzi was alright, but both Ling Juan and Qi Zhiqiang made her physically uncomfortable.

“That’s not surprising,” Ling Xiao shook her head. “You said your father is Xia Jun, right?”

“Right.”

“Xia Jun is a distant relative of ours.”
