Chapter 226 What exactly is the father's predicament?
Unfortunately, Feng Yun still shook her head.
They even resorted to clichés like, "Children shouldn't ask too many questions about adult matters."
Summer, a twenty-year-old child, can only stop for now.
If her mother didn't want to talk about it, then she would find a way to investigate herself.
With so many people in the Feng family, especially with Old Madam Feng still alive, she didn't believe she couldn't get the answer out of her.
So that afternoon, during afternoon tea, Xia Yue handed the white wolf over to Qin Yeting and went to see the old lady alone.
The old lady has just been discharged from the hospital and has not yet fully recovered.
But because her youngest daughter, Feng Yun, recently returned, the old lady was very happy and seemed much more energetic than before.
"Grandma, I'm here to give you acupuncture." Xia Yue smiled sweetly, a cheerful smile that made Old Madam Feng involuntarily happy to see her.
"You silly girl, you finally have time to come and see this old woman." There was a hint of complaint in Madam Feng's voice.
"I'm too busy, there's nothing I can do, but I'll come to see you whenever I have time," Xia Yue said coquettishly in a low voice.
Of course, Madam Feng wouldn't blame Xia Yue; she was just joking around and teasing her granddaughter.
"How is your mother's health? Is she able to get out of bed now?" Old Madam Feng asked.
Xia Yue took out the gold needles and, while preparing for acupuncture, replied, "I can't get out of bed yet, but I'll be fine after resting for a while, so you don't need to worry."
"Children are all debts, how can I not worry about them? What's more, that child is being watched by the royal family, I can't rest easy for a moment." Old Madam Feng sighed again.
Xia Yue heard her grandmother mention "that child," and then she remembered that her mother had also called her "child" earlier. It seemed that in her parents' eyes...
No matter how old your children are or whether they are married, they are still your children.
They need love and care.
However, Xia Yue felt that she was already capable of standing on her own and could protect others instead of being protected.
"Grandma, don't worry, I'll take good care of Mommy!" Xia Yue replied loudly.
Upon hearing this, Madam Feng's expression became even more complicated. "Girl, it's clearly our responsibility to protect you, but instead you're the one taking care of us more. You've really worked hard."
"This is all I should do, it's nothing hard or not," Xia Yue replied with a smile, then suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Grandma, do you know anything about my dad?"
"What is it?" Old Madam Feng immediately became alert.
Xia Yue didn't waste any words and went straight to the point, "Why is he staying at the black market exchange using Dak's identity? Why doesn't he reunite with his mother? Is it because the Feng family doesn't like him?"
Madam Feng sensed a hint of resentment in Xia Yue's words.
However, this matter is a long story and cannot be explained in just a few words.
It's even less convenient for Xia Yue to know.
Madam Feng could only vaguely say, "Everyone has their own unavoidable difficulties."
"Then what exactly is my father's predicament?" Xia Yue stopped beating around the bush and asked directly.
Madam Feng could only shake her head.
Xia Yue guessed again, "Is it because of Emperor Anmu? No, Dad and Mom were separated for more than ten years, and Anmu was just a little kid back then."
"Girl, stop guessing. Just let it be. Living a good life with that Qin boy is better than anything else," Old Madam Feng interrupted Xia Yue.
Seeing this, Xia Yue knew that she wouldn't be able to get any information from Old Madam Feng.
There was no other way but for her to give up for the time being.
But it's only temporary.
After giving Madam Feng acupuncture last night, Xia Yue left and went to find Qin Yeting.
She guessed that Qin Yeting had a wide network of connections and information, so he could definitely help her find out.
However, before she could find Qin Yeting, Xia Yue's phone rang again.
Upon checking the number, I saw it was a call from Shen Xiangxiang.
Xia Yue has been too busy lately and hasn't had time to communicate with her friends.
The last time I contacted Shen Xiangxiang was when I taught her how to cook.
She quickly answered the phone, but before she could speak, she heard an urgent voice on the other end.
"Yueyue, something terrible has happened! The white smoke has been detected!"
"What? Who found out?" Xia Yue immediately became alert.
Shen Xiangxiang said, "It's Bai Muyang. He wants to acquire the Shen family's branch here. My brother disagrees. That bastard came to cause trouble today and brought a bunch of people to forcibly break in."
Bai Yan and her mother were hiding in the bedroom when he discovered them and forcibly took them away just now.
Xia Yue frowned after hearing this.
She promised to give Bai Yan her freedom, and Qin Yeting has almost finished making preparations. He plans to send Bai Yan away in the next couple of days.
I never expected this kind of mess to happen again.
Being discovered by Bai Muyang means that Mo Xiao will definitely find out!
I heard that Mo Xiao killed Bai Mudan, and Bai Muyang has been holding a grudge ever since. He will definitely take the opportunity to retaliate.
Xia Yue became increasingly anxious, so she called Qin Yeting again, asking him for help to go to the Bai family to rescue the people.
"Don't worry, I'll think of a way to save them first!"
"No, I can't calm down. Besides Bai Yan, my brother was also taken away by Bai Muyang."
That bastard said he wouldn't release my brother until he signed the papers, and he even threatened to cripple him.
The Bai family wields too much power here. They're resorting to any means necessary, and my brother and I are no match for them.
Shen Xiangxiang's voice grew increasingly sorrowful.
Xia Yue continued to persuade her, "Don't worry, I'm thinking of a way. Where are you? Come find me first."
Xia Yue heard a lot of noise coming from Shen Xiangxiang's side.
“I…I’m still following Bai Muyang. He captured my brother, and I’m worried about him,” Shen Xiangxiang replied firmly.
Hearing this, Xia Yue became even more worried.
