No matter how the final results turned out to be, they would have to verify it for themselves.
Time and time again, these changes and insider information had worn them out.
However, now there was one more problem.
“If I’m not mom’s daughter, then… Where did her daughter go?”
Xia Xibei turned solemn at the mention of the matter.
“Umm…”
Qiao Yanjue was kind of helpless too.
She was right! Where was Chang Qianzi’s own daughter then?
That was a big question.
Chang Qianzi had been very good to Xia Xibei. She cared about her and took care of her, trying hard to make up for the mistakes she had made.
However, it turned out that Xia Xibei wasn’t even her daughter.
If Chang Qianzi knew that Xia Xibei wasn’t her daughter, imagine how upset she would be!
“She wouldn’t be with Ling Juan, would she?” Qiao Yanjue said.
“I don’t think so.” Xia Xibei thought about it and shook her head with a resolute look in her eyes, “Although I don’t know Ling Juan, someone like her wouldn’t have been so kind as to raise a child that wasn’t her own.”
Having said that, Xia Xibei got even more concerned.
Where did the child go, then?
“We have to find out,” she said in a solemn manner.
Qiao Yanjue nodded.
In the present situation, they couldn’t tell Chang Qianzi about it directly.
Although Chang Qianzi was sad before, she had found her “real” daughter. That was how she recovered from the sadness in just a few days’ time.
However, if Xia Xibei told her forthrightly that she wasn’t her real daughter, and no one even knew if her daughter was dead or alive…
Chang Qianzi would have a massive meltdown, wouldn’t she?
Therefore, in order to preserve Chang Qianzi’s sanity, they should keep it a secret until they found her daughter.
“How should we find out though?” Xia Xibei was somewhat at a loss.
“Let’s start from eighteen years ago.”
Qiao Yanjue stroked her head and soothed her gently, “You don’t have to think about it too much. Let’s take our time, we’ll find her in the end.”
“Okay,” Xia Xibei leaned into his arms and sighed.
“I’ll have someone look into it.”
“Alright, I’ll get someone from my side to find out too.”
The two of them quickly made a decision.
“Get some rest for now, you must be exhausted today,” Qiao Yanjue said as he caressed Xia Xibei’s face, his heart aching for her.
She was usually full of energy, but she was visibly weary today.
“Mmm,” Xia Xibei nodded.
In fact, she felt more mentally exhausted than physically tired.
Just after waking up the next morning, Pan Yan called.
“There’s an interview at 11 o’clock at the TV station in the capital, you’re expected to be there.”
“It’s in the capital?”
“Yes, they contacted me out of the blue, and you happened to be around, so I accepted the invitation,” Pan Yan yawned. “Just take care of it, it should be fine.”
“Alright.”
Xia Xibei got up, washed, then tidied herself up before going downstairs.
Everyone was waiting already.
Seeing her come down, Wan Yunfei and the others wanted to make a couple of mocking remarks, but Liu Yiqin stopped them.
“Come over here, Bei. Time for breakfast.”
“Sure,” Xia Xibei flashed her a bright smile.
Liu Yiqin’s heart ached even more for her.
This young lady must not have slept well last night!
Indeed, who could have stayed indifferent after things like that happened?
The old man looked at his wife, and then at Xia Xibei. He wanted to say something, but kept his mouth shut in the end.
Everyone finished their breakfast in silence. Before leaving, Xia Xibei gave the pill to the old man.
He beamed like a beacon.
After that, Qiao Yanjue sent Xia Xibei to the venue of the interview.
Xia Xibei ran into Zhuang Xiao’ai there, whom she had met previously.
