Chapter 1710: The Son is a Foundling VI
Xiao Ya trembled and lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Tang Yin’s eyes.
“Forget it. Beastman or not, I’m still better than the snow wolf.” Tang Yin sighed but slowly began to accept her real identity. “By the way, did you already know I was your daughter?”
Xiao Ya pursed her lips and remained silent.
The spirit beast was familiar with her child’s scent.
From the first moment she saw Tang Yin, she knew this girl was her daughter.
However, she did not tell her daughter because she had no confidence and… She was afraid that her daughter would hate her.
“Since you already knew it long ago, why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Tang Yin exhaled. “My mother was clearly by my side and has saved my life, yet, I didn’t know anything about it. Do you know what it feels like?”
Xiao Ya raised her eyes and looked at Tang Yin in panic.
“Forget it…” Tang Yin sighed. “I would have found out sooner or later, anyway. It’s not that hard to accept. I just don’t want to be a slave to someone else…”
Xiao Ya’s heart tightened. She reached out and grabbed Tang Yin’s arm.
No. She would never let anyone take Tang Yin away. She would do everything, to the point of risking her own life, to protect her daughter!
“But…” Tang Yin tilted her head. “You mustn’t let anyone know that I’m a beastman, especially that woman who’s clinging onto Xiao Qing. What if… She laughs at me when she finds out that I’m not human?”
Xiao Ya opened her mouth and lowered her head in guilt.
It was her fault. She was the one who had harmed Yin’er…
“Don’t be like this.” Tang Yin looked at Xiao Ya’s sad face. “I’m not saying that being a beastman is not good. I just feel that… Xiao Qing doesn’t seem to like spirit beasts. She never allows the snow wolf to hug her, but Qing Ling, Luo Li, and those girls from Iron-Blooded Gate can hug her…”
Tang Yin pouted. “Xiao Qing wouldn’t let me get close to her back then. What if she doesn’t like me now?”
Xiao Ya looked at Tang Yin blankly.
Whether it was the Ninth Emperor in her previous life or the current Feng Ruqing…
Both were very fond of spirit beasts.
Why did Xiao Yin feel this way?

General Manor.
In the east wing of the backyard, Feng Ruqing held her chin and smiled brightly as she watched Ah Hua and other beasts busily cleaning the yard for her.
“The more you look at this kind of creature, the more you like it. They are not only strong but also can be a good worker,” Feng Ruqing said smilingly. “Nan Xian, do you think Ah Hua looks as cute as a dog when it’s working?”
‘Well, the more I look at it, the more I’ll like it…’
“If Qing’er said it’s a dog, and then it is indeed a dog.” Nan Xian smiled gently. “You should go rest first. I still have a few things to settle.”
Feng Ruqing frowned. “Is it about the woman who was with Feng Lianqing that day? Have you located her?”
“Qing’er, you don’t need to worry about these things. I’ll settle everything for you.” Nan Xian smiled. “You just need to rest at home at ease.”
“Alright, you can go but always be safe.”
Feng Ruqing frowned lightly.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be safe… You just stay at home and wait for me…”
He was never afraid of anything in this world before he met Feng Ruqing.
