Chapter 141 The Foster Parents I've Been Searching For Are Actually Them
Si He's feet felt like they were weighed down by a thousand pounds of lead.
Snap—
Tears fell as years of grievances overwhelmed her, and her psychological defenses crumbled.
"Father...Mother?" Si He asked, her voice trembling.
It was them!!!
It was them?!
These words were spoken.
Countless people were stunned and turned to look at her.
The emperor stood up abruptly, his face filled with shock and disbelief.
Xia Jingheng's pupils contracted slightly, his expression was complex, and his breathing was uneven.
Qingbao's big eyes were filled with numbness and confusion, followed by a flash of heartache.
It really was these two...
How could this be...?
How could that be?
Were the two most important people in her mother's life, the ones who loved her the most, actually the masterminds who controlled her entire life?
Qingbao's eyes were slightly red, and she even stopped breathing.
The Si family members stared in astonishment.
Madam Si's expression remained unchanged, as if she already knew something.
The scene was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Si He stood opposite them, looking at them with red eyes.
Zhu Yi felt a little uncomfortable in his chest. He beckoned, "He'er, come here."
step……
Two steps...
Si He stopped in her tracks, staring at them intently, feeling somewhat unsteady on her feet.
"Why..." she choked out.
The father in front of her was very young, and looked about the same age as her.
He was so young that Si He barely recognized him...
She couldn't accept that her parents, whom she had searched for for so many years, were actually the masterminds who had controlled her for her entire life.
"You're being disobedient." Zhu Yi frowned, quite displeased.
Si He broke down calmly, "I'm asking you, why is that!"
Tears fell, and her screams sounded so humble and weak in the eyes of the immortals.
The two people before him showed no trace of kindness on their faces.
Xuan Yue spoke softly, "We're doing this for your own good. Do you really want to end up like Xia Jingheng?"
"You know perfectly well that I've been looking for you for four years!!!" Si He looked at Xuan Yue, the silk ribbon covering her eyes fluttering, but it shattered her heart into pieces.
My mother's eyesight has always been poor; she thought it was from staying up late doing embroidery...
Her father had a small scar on the bridge of his nose, which she assumed was from an accident while chopping wood or farming to support the family...
She thought they were all doing it for her...
"But for the past four years, you've been watching me... watching me search for you in vain for so many years, watching me suffer the coercion of the Su family for news of you... watching me worry about you at night, wondering if you're doing well..."
"But what about you? You've been watching me the whole time..."
Si He took a step back instead, feeling as if a piece of her heart had been ripped out, leaving her feeling empty.
She was filled with her parents' love during her childhood, and she thought herself happy and fulfilled...
In the end, it was all a lie!
That's so fake!
Even her being found by the Si family, taken back, and married into the Su family was all pre-arranged!
Hahaha.
It's all fake.
Zhu Yi said calmly, "You are just a mortal, you shouldn't be asking so many questions."
“We have our own considerations. We’ve raised you for so many years, you should repay us,” Xuan Yue said.
The two only changed their expressions slightly, but still maintained the composure of immortals.
The devastated Sihe stood before them, like a clown, an ant, nothing at all!
Zhu Yi sighed, "I know you want to be with your parents. If you remarry Su Xiao, I will bring you both to the Immortal Realm to cultivate immortality with us and live a long and prosperous life. What do you say?"
Sihe's love for her adoptive parents ultimately became Zhuyi's bargaining chip in negotiations with her.
This offer is too tempting.
Su Xiao's eyes lit up.
Even the Si family members were itching to make a move.
"What are you standing there for? Say yes!" Madam Si couldn't help but speak up.
What an honor it would be if one's own daughter could be guided by an immortal to become an immortal!
Even the emperor had to be wary of them.
The temptation of losing ten years of his lifespan was immense for Si Shilang.
"Sihe, quickly agree to your adoptive father's request. They entrusted you with their orphanage before they left, asking us to bring you back to the Si family to enjoy a comfortable life. There's no doubt that they love you; you must understand their good intentions..."
now.
Madam Si and Vice Minister Si stood behind Zhu Yixuan and Yue.
The four men stood facing her.
Si He's eyes gradually went numb. Her biological parents, her adoptive parents, and who else? Who else among her relatives wanted to abandon her and harm her?
The feeling of being completely alone behind her made her feel suffocated and uncomfortable.
At this moment.
A wisp of black energy supported her shoulder.
Si He turned her head with red eyes and met a cute but serious, yet heartbroken, round face.
“Qingbao…”
She stood up straight.
—She also has a daughter!
"Mother, don't give in!" Qingbao's sweet voice cleared her mind considerably.
Xuan Yue's voice was soft, "You wretched child, if it weren't for you, how could your mother have become like this... Si He, do you really consider her your daughter? A mortal with such abilities, don't you suspect that something has taken over your daughter's body?"
Si He's eyes were defiant. "She is my daughter! My Qingbao, she will always be my daughter!"
But parents might not be so...
Thinking about this, she still felt a pang of pain in her heart.
She loved Qingbao as her parents loved her, but in the end, it was all a lie.
But she won't be like them!
Her love for Qingbao will always be real!
She knew at a glance whether Qingbao was her daughter or not!
Her tone was firm, resolute, certain, and unconditionally trusting of Qingbao.
Qingbao raised her little face with a hint of pride and walked confidently to her mother.
He raised his judge's pen, "Now, your opponent is me! If you don't explain everything clearly today, no one will leave!!!"
As they were talking.
The sky was shrouded in black fog, and all the people on the ground suddenly disappeared.
The emperor's guards, ministers, executioners, and soldiers instantly turned into black mist and disappeared.
Zhu Yi understood immediately, "An illusion?"
It was definitely a setup!
"Heh—" Qingbao sneered, soaring into the air, with countless black wisps swirling, howling, and churning behind her.
The vermilion dot on the judge's pen, as if dipped in blood, trembled with rage!
soon.
A transparent dome enveloped them all, leaving them no way to escape.
Si Ye was so frightened that he hid behind Old Madam Si.
"No, Qingbao, can you please let us out? This has nothing to do with us!"
Death is acceptable, but a painful death is not!
Madam Si covered his mouth, "Don't make a sound, or they'll notice us..."
In this situation, the Si family is the weakest existence.
As long as you survive, you can still keep your life.
Xuan Yue sighed softly, the corners of her mouth curving into a mocking smile at Qing Bao's overestimation of her abilities:
"You're just a judge who's been put on top; you don't even have godhood. Where do you get the confidence to think you can trap us?"
With that, she used her hands to cast a spell, fiercely breaking through the barrier.
Bang--
