Chapter 21: Is it okay to turn your in-laws into godparents?

“I always felt that the three of them were too harmonious as a blended family, and the things that happened when I went missing and my mother disappeared and died were too strange, so I have always wanted to investigate this matter.”

"But more than ten years have passed since this happened. I am alone and powerless, and it is very difficult to investigate. I have no clue whatsoever."

“The main thing is that I’m afraid this matter is directly related to Xia Jianyong. If I investigate rashly, it will alert Xia Jianyong, and I’m afraid he’ll find out before I even understand the situation.” Xia Yuhuan said, her brows furrowed and her face full of worry.

"Since you said you're willing to help as long as it's not illegal or against the law, I'd like to shamelessly ask you to help me investigate this matter."

"Of course, if Dad thinks this is just my subjective speculation, too much nonsense, or that too much time has passed and it's difficult to investigate, and you're unwilling to help, that's fine too, I can accept it." Xia Yuhuan appeared quite composed.

She was telling the truth, but it was also a test.

He was testing whether Chi Shaokang was willing to help.

Upon hearing this, Chi Shaokang spoke with a serious expression: "Xiao Huan, I will never go back on my word. Don't worry, leave this matter to me, and I will definitely help you investigate it thoroughly."

"However, as you know, this is indeed a long time, and my investigation will also take time, so I cannot guarantee you the timeframe. But I promise that I will definitely find out the truth for you."

Xia Yuhuan was overjoyed upon hearing this: "I don't have any requirements regarding the time. As long as you can help me investigate this matter thoroughly and prevent me from living in a daze, I will be satisfied."

“Okay, then write down the name of the police station where your grandfather left his address information. If there are any other clues, write them down for me as well,” Chi Shaokang said immediately.

Xia Yuhuan agreed and then wrote down the address and handed it to Chi Shaokang. At the same time, she also wrote down the name of the police officer who received her grandfather back then.

"Dad, then I'll leave this to you," Xia Yuhuan said.

"I will let you know as soon as there is any progress."

"If possible, I hope this matter can be kept from disturbing my grandfather as much as possible, because I don't want him to worry about me."

"Don't worry, I know."

Zhang Xianya couldn't help but hug Xia Yuhuan.

"Xiao Huan, from now on we are your biological parents. If you need anything, just tell us. Don't be shy, okay?"

Zhang Xianya felt heartbroken when she thought that Xia Yuhuan might have been deliberately abandoned by her biological father, and that her biological mother's death might also have been caused by her biological father.

If their associations and speculations are true, then Xia Yuhuan is truly pitiful.

Although the father and daughter don't seem to get along right now, it's one thing to be at odds, but it's quite another to become mortal enemies.

No one can calmly accept the fact that their biological father killed their biological mother.

At this moment, Zhang Xianya even hoped that everything was not true, but that they were just overthinking it.

Otherwise, how will Xia Yuhuan face her biological father then?

"Okay, I understand, thank you, Mom," Xia Yuhuan smiled at her and said.

Xia Yuhuan felt no qualms about outsourcing the investigation into her disappearance and the death of her biological mother.

She herself didn't have the power to investigate the matter, so she could only rely on external forces.

Making use of all available resources is also a form of personal ability.

Moreover, Chi Shaokang hoped that she would cure Chi Yanzhou, and he helped her investigate the truth of the matter. In return, she helped him cure his son, which was itself a kind of exchange.

That evening, Xia Yuhuan gave Chi Yanzhou a massage and recounted the events of the day in a long, drawn-out manner.

"Although your father pinned his hopes of curing you on me, I am still very grateful to him for agreeing to help me investigate the truth without hesitation."

"And I could feel that he genuinely cared about me and wanted to help me. Your dad is really a very good person."

Xia Yuhuan sighed as she spoke, "Speaking of which, I really envy you. You have such wonderful parents who love you. Unlike me, my biological father didn't love me, but my biological mother loved me very much. However, I may have been killed because of that love."

"If this were really the case, I wouldn't know how to face my deceased biological mother."

The man lying on the bed did not move, letting Xia Yuhuan toss and turn.

Xia Yuhuan talked to herself for a while, then sighed, "Originally, marrying you was just a temporary measure. I was thinking that after I cured you, I would divorce you, set you free, and we would each live our own lives."

"After all, you've never even met me, and now you have me as your wife. It's really unfair to you."

"But I never expected that things would get so complicated. I've even fallen for your parents. What if I can't bear to leave them if I divorce you?"

Xia Yuhuan said, sounding a bit of a headache.

"I wonder if I can divorce you one day and then immediately acknowledge your parents as my godparents? Do you think they would be willing?"

"In the time before you wake up, I will try my best to be good to them and make them like me too. Maybe then they will be willing to have another daughter like me?"

"Hmm, this has potential, I need to work hard."

After giving Chi Yanzhou a massage, Xia Yuhuan mumbled something and then lay down to sleep.

Little did she know, the man lying motionless beside her was having a jumble of thoughts running through his mind.

At the onset of his injury, Chi Yanzhou was completely unconscious and fell into a coma.

But recently, he has discovered that his consciousness is occasionally awakened. If someone is speaking or doing something next to him at this time, he can hear and feel it.

He simply couldn't speak or move, and no one knew that he was fully conscious.

Sometimes, when he hears his parents talking beside him with great worry, he longs to tell them that he is conscious and that there is still hope for him.

Unfortunately, he was diagnosed as being in a vegetative state, rendering any treatment meaningless.

Although his parents did not give up on him and regularly had doctors come to check his vital signs, without further treatment, he could not wake up.

When he was conscious, he tried hard to control his body, but it was no use.

He couldn't even move a finger.

Just when he thought he would never have a chance to wake up in his lifetime, Xia Yuhuan's sudden appearance gave him hope in his despair.

Chi Yanzhou knew that she had come to his side as a substitute bride to bring him good luck.

He was naturally unhappy about such a feudal thing happening, but he was unconscious and unable to resist. He was even more greedy for the hope that her appearance brought him. He clearly remembered the excitement and joy he felt when he first heard her say that she could cure him.

Chi Yanzhou had already made up his mind that if he were to wake up one day, he would treat Xia Yuhuan well, live a good life with her, and spend his whole life repaying her for saving his life.

But he didn't expect that before he even woke up, he would hear his newlywed wife say that she would divorce him once he recovered.

She even liked his parents, her in-laws, more than her new husband.

Although he was lying there unconscious and unable to develop feelings for her, being abandoned seemed like a natural thing.

But this fact still dealt a heavy blow to Chi Yanzhou.

He had just married his new wife and hadn't even had a chance to get to know her yet, and she was already planning to abandon him?

She had even planned to turn him from her husband into her ex-husband, then into her brother, and continue to be a family with him.

Although they are all family, Chi Yanzhou still finds it unacceptable!

If he were to wake up, he would definitely not let her act so recklessly!

How could you turn him from your husband into just a brother without even trying? Is he really that bad and unattractive?
