Chapter 295: 238 ancient women in the painting!

"What, what?" Xia Yourong could hardly believe what she had heard, staring in despair, her speech stumbling a bit, "My biological father... just a butler???"

Xia Yuzheng spoke very calmly, "I knew you would react this way, but what I want to say is, your birth father was a much better person than your birth mother..."

Back then, Xu Qing came to the Xia Family under the pretense of visiting relatives and had dinner, and she deliberately persuaded Xu He to drink a lot in the evening.

Xu He himself didn’t have much tolerance for alcohol and soon became very drunk.

Xu Qing thought her chance had arrived, but unexpectedly, Xia Yuzheng was especially sympathetic towards his wife and immediately accompanied her back to their room to rest.

As for how later Xu Qing pretended to be drunk and stayed at the Xia Family, and how she mistakenly entered Uncle Huang’s room by a twist of fate, only the person involved would know.

It’s probably not much different from those "melodramatic" plots in novels.

After that night, Xu Qing had not contacted Xu He or any of the Xia Family members. She didn’t realize she had entered the wrong room. After discovering she was pregnant, she hid away, planning to act first and explain later.

Until mid-pregnancy, when the Xia Family butler came to find her, she then learned that her child was not Xia Yuzheng’s.

She collapsed like a madwoman, screaming and demanding to know who else was aware of this situation.

Uncle Huang, seeing her heavily pregnant, was also very shocked. He said that the lady and the master of the house had already known, but he hadn’t told anyone else.

Xu Qing couldn’t stand the sight of him anymore and drove him out directly.

"If you don’t want me to call the police, get out immediately! If you dare show up in front of my eyes again, or let anyone else know about this, I’ll end it all!"

Knowing his lowly status, Uncle Huang had no choice but to agree.

At that time, Xu Qing’s belly was indeed quite large, and abortion was not really a good option.

But given her crazy temperament, knowing that she was actually carrying a butler’s child, she would have aborted it no matter what.

However, she didn’t go through with it later.

It seemed that she had some compelling reason to give birth to this child.

And was... exceptionally determined...

Back then, the Xia Family didn’t pay much attention to such things, because not long after, Xu He also got pregnant, and Xia Yuzheng was wholly devoted to his wife, along with their three young sons, all excited for the new life that was about to arrive.

Feeling guilty towards his masters, Uncle Huang worked especially hard, taking care of every little detail during the lady’s pregnancy.

Later, when the lady was about to give birth, the whole family awaited eagerly, and the precious pearl, white and round like jade, was finally born.

The halls of the Xia Family rang with laughter and joy.

More than three years passed in the blink of an eye.

Knowing how much the lady wanted a daughter, Uncle Huang was particularly fond of the young miss, taking even greater care of her than the three young masters.

Every day, he proudly strolled around the villa’s garden with her, walking and enjoying himself immensely.

Life was comfortable and leisurely until one day when Xia Ye was three years old, the Xia Family car drove haphazardly into the villa courtyard, Xu He got out in a panic, her eyes full of turmoil and helplessness, and she asked the servants as she ran inside, "Has Little Tiangao come home yet?"

The servants shook their heads, and then, Uncle Huang received a phone call from the master of the house.

It was then that Uncle Huang learned that the beloved young miss, adored by everyone, had disappeared!

The young masters were also brought back by the nannies, and the Xia Family was in complete chaos.

The scene that had been so warm during the day, making every family in Capital City envious, was suddenly shrouded in a heavy gloom overnight.

Uncle Huang saw with his own eyes how the lady and the master, overnight, aged as if by ten years.

The police investigated vigorously, but they couldn’t find any substantial clues.

As time passed day by day, hope grew dimmer.

Laughter was no longer heard in the Xia Family.

Latterly, Qiao Yufen came to the Xia Family with Xia Yourong, demanding that Xia Yuzheng must adopt her.

Xu He asked the reason, and Qiao Yufen said she felt a connection with her and then hinted overtly and covertly at Xia Yuzheng, saying this was Xu Qing’s child, thinking her son would understand her implication.

On the other side, Xu Qing also reached out to Xu He, saying she was about to leave the country, had a good suitor, but that person would never accept her having a child. If Xu He couldn’t help her raise the child, she would have to send the child to an orphanage.

Looking at the then very young Xiaorong, Xu He felt pity, and combined with Qiao Yufen’s firm attitude, she finally agreed.

Uncle Huang didn’t show himself that day, hiding at the doorway, secretly watching the little girl.

As he watched, he smiled.
