Chapter 594: Chapter 592 Arriving at Ning Family 4_1

"But Patriarch Ning, it seems like your daughter never wore any of these clothes!" Xia Ningxing couldn’t help blurting out.

Logically, these were other people’s private affairs, and she shouldn’t have interjected, but somehow her mouth had acted beyond her control, instinctively asking the question.

After she asked, Xia Ningxing felt somewhat annoyed, thinking perhaps she’d been too inquisitive.

Mrs. Xia Ning, however, showed no displeasure. After lowering her eyelashes, she let out a sigh, her voice carrying a world-weariness as she said, "She is not in this world anymore."

Dead?

Xia Ningxing’s mind didn’t wander elsewhere; she simply assumed it meant passing away.

She couldn’t help but be stunned, clearly not expecting such an outcome, then hurriedly voiced her apologies, "I am truly sorry, Patriarch Ning. I didn’t know that your beloved daughter had already... I am really sorry."

Talking about someone else’s heartbreaking matter, Xia Ningxing was extremely embarrassed at this moment.

If anyone dared to bring up her own sad affairs, she would definitely beat them senseless.

"It’s alright, many years have passed," Mrs. Xia Ning said, shaking her head and smiling at her as if it no longer mattered.

After all, her daughter had come back.

Then Mrs. Xia Ning asked, "Have you picked out the clothes?"

"I have; I’ll wear this one." Xia Ningxing pulled out a simple designed dress.

"It should suit you very well, go try it on," Mrs. Xia Ning said with a gentle smile.

Xia Ningxing couldn’t tell if it was her imagination, but she always felt that Mrs. Xia Ning looked at her as if seeing someone else.

Could it be that she saw her own daughter in her?

If that were the case, then it made sense why she was so protective of her.

She really did benefit from the light of someone else’s daughter.

Xia Ningxing’s thoughts were racing.

After she changed clothes, Mrs. Xia Ning looked her over and her smile deepened, immediately saying, "You look beautiful!"

The simple white long dress, with its perfect cut, showcased Xia Ningxing’s figure exquisitely, her shoulder-length hair cascading down like a waterfall, soft and silky.

Even without makeup, her strikingly beautiful face was unforgettable.

While saying this, Mrs. Xia Ning couldn’t resist lifting her hand to stroke Xia Ningxing’s hair, her expression extremely tender, as if she were caressing her own daughter.

In fact, there were two reasons she thought Xia Ningxing was her daughter.

First, a long time ago, she had a dream in which it was revealed that her daughter from a different space-time would return.

The reason she believed in the prophecy of the dream was that some of the Ning Family women with direct descendant bloodline possessed this special ability.

So she had been waiting for her daughter’s return all along.

She had assumed that her daughter would come back in body, which was why she had been secretly searching, but recent dreams reminded her that her daughter had returned by soul transmigration.

That is to say, her spirit would be reborn in another person’s body.

Finding her daughter now became as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

But the women of the Ning Family had another characteristic – exceptional talent in medicine!

Especially children born from a pure Ning Family bloodline like hers!

The fact that Xia Ningxing had been able to develop a medicine to combat the S virus in such a short time spoke volumes about her talent.

Moreover, she had someone investigate Xia Ningxing and found out that her temperament changed dramatically at the age of eight, so it was very likely that she had been body snatched by her daughter.

Therefore, after weighing all the evidence, she suspected Xia Ningxing’s identity.

Mrs. Xia Ning looked at the girl before her, organizing her thoughts before finally unable to hold back, she said, "Miss Xia, do you believe that there are other parallel worlds besides this one?"

She probed carefully.

Xia Ningxing had not expected her to ask such a question and a wary look flashed in her eyes, but it was fleeting, vanishing quickly, and soon she showed a hint of confusion, "Parallel worlds? Have you taken a liking to sci-fi novels lately?"

"No," Mrs. Xia Ning shook her head, her gaze still fixed firmly on Xia Ningxing.

Xia Ningxing countered, "Then do you believe that parallel worlds exist in reality?"

"Yes," Mrs. Xia Ning nodded affirmatively.

A sudden "thud" echoed in Xia Ningxing’s heart.

Could it be...

Could it be that she had also traveled through time?

And her handwriting was exactly the same as her biological mother’s in the real world.

Especially since she so confidently believed in the concept of parallel worlds, so...

"Chen Jiaqing?" A strange name was tentatively uttered by Xia Ningxing.

After saying it, her gaze locked tightly on Mrs. Xia Ning, as if afraid to miss any slight reaction.

Her heart was pounding like a frantic drum.

Because "Chen Jiaqing" was the name of her mother in modern times.

It was information she had taken many years to uncover.

Regrettably, she had searched through throngs of people and had found no one who fit the bill, instead encountering a bunch of impostors, one after another.

Hearing these three syllables, Mrs. Xia Ning’s pupils dilated instantly: "How do you know this name?"

After all, Chen Jiaqing was a name she had once used in another world!

Her gaze on Xia Ningxing went from shock to joy and excitement. She trembled as she threw herself at her, "Daughter! You’re my daughter, aren’t you?"

Mrs. Xia Ning held her in her arms, tears streaming down her face, her entire body shaking with emotion.

Her guess was correct!

She was indeed her daughter!

"You’re back! You’ve finally come back! Child, Mom has missed you so much, I’m so sorry, I..." Mrs. Xia Ning sobbed incoherently, tears falling unceasingly like a broken dam.

Xia Ningxing had not expected that her casual probe would actually lead her to her modern-day mother.

Suddenly, tears fell uncontrollably from her own eyes as well.

Drip-drop, drip-drop.

Tear after tear fell onto her shoulder.

If she belonged to this space-time, but had given birth to her in another, could her abandonment be due to some unspeakable secret?

Could it be?

"Can you tell me why, when you returned here yourself, you didn’t bring me back from that space-time as well? Did you abandon me on purpose?" Xia Ningxing asked with a choked voice, gripping her fingers tightly, her eyes misty with heavy fog.

This question had troubled her for a long time and needed to be addressed.

"I didn’t abandon you on purpose!" Mrs. Xia Ning, afraid she might be misunderstood, immediately shook her head to explain, gripping her hand tightly, repeating the words over and over, "I didn’t abandon you, I didn’t, I really didn’t!"

"You are the child of the man I loved the most, and the person closest to me in this world, how could I possibly abandon you, how could I..."

Towards the end, Mrs. Xia Ning’s voice was choked with sobs, her throat hoarse from crying.

"Don’t cry anymore, I believe you, I believe!" Seeing her reaction, Xia Ningxing knew she hadn’t lied, so she quickly patted her back to comfort her.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xia Ning’s excitement finally began to subside.
