When Huo Tingxiao returned home at noon, Lin Qing had already visited the Huo family.
Huo Tingxiao glanced at the valuable gifts placed in the living room and frowned slightly.
It seems he cares about his younger sister quite a bit, coming so quickly.
"Tingxiao, you're back. Come on, sit down and chat with the guests. I'll go see how Aunt Wang is preparing lunch."
When Huo's mother saw Huo Tingxiao return, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Huo didn't go to work today, and Lin Qing has already come to visit for a while.
Upon seeing Lin Qing, Huo's mother was surprised, as he looked remarkably like Yueyue.
Lin Qing came to see Xingyue, wanting her to take a look at his sister's legs.
"Hello, Lin Qing, I apologize for disturbing you."
A tall man strode into the room, his face resolute and handsome, exuding an outstanding and remarkable aura.
Standing in a crowd, one would be an eye-catching presence.
Lin Qing stood up.
His gaze fell subtly on his legs, and a hint of joy flickered in his sharp, deep eyes.
Lin Qing was no ordinary person either. He naturally had his own connections in the capital and quickly found out about the Huo family.
The younger sister was making a huge fuss at the hotel, wanting someone to take a look at her legs as soon as possible.
Lin Qing appeased the man, and the next day he brought gifts to visit the Huo family.
Lin Qing didn't bring Lin Jiaojiao, worried that she might not be able to control her temper and ruin the first impression.
"I wonder what brings Mr. Lin here?"
Huo Tingxiao pretended not to know the purpose of his visit. He took off his coat and hung it in the entryway, then changed his shoes and entered the living room.
Looking at the man standing in the living room, Huo Tingxiao's deep eyes furrowed slightly; he did indeed look somewhat like him.
Their facial features are at least 50% similar.
But the eyebrows and eyes were about 80% similar.
The little peach blossom spirit had gentle eyes, but the eyes opposite her revealed a sharp edge.
The man opposite me had deep-set, sharp features, wore a gray overcoat and black casual pants, and had glasses perched on his nose. He exuded a serious and meticulous air.
He looks like someone who does academic research.
"I heard that Mr. Huo had a leg problem before, but your wife cured it. My younger sister has a leg ailment and I would like to ask your wife to take a look. Would it be possible for me to meet your wife?"
The two exchanged a glance, both knowing the other wasn't the type to engage in endless small talk, so Lin Qing didn't beat around the bush any further.
“My wife is not home right now. You can tell me about your sister’s leg condition, and I can pass it on to her when she gets back.”
Huo Tingxiao said calmly.
Upon hearing that Wen Xingyue was not there and could not be found, a look of disappointment flashed across Lin Qing's eyes.
"My younger sister has had a leg ailment since birth and has never been able to stand up. Doctors say it's congenital. Over the years, our family has taken her to many hospitals and clinics, but none of them have been able to cure her. Some time ago, we learned by chance that your wife had cured Mr. Huo's leg, so we brought my younger sister here for treatment."
Lin Qing sighed.
"Congenital? Do your father and mother have leg problems?" Huo Tingxiao nodded.
He had a congenital leg ailment... If he remembered correctly, he had heard Wen Rushang say that Wen Lingyue's adoptive parents had leg problems.
My suspicions were half confirmed.
"No, my parents' legs are normal, but I don't know why my little sister was born with a leg problem."
Lin Qing shook his head.
“My wife has told me that congenital diseases are very likely inherited from parents, but I just heard Mr. Lin say that your parents don’t have any problems… I will tell my wife about the problem you mentioned when she gets back.”
Huo Tingxiao frowned, seemingly a little confused.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Huo. This is the phone number of our hotel. If your wife agrees, I will bring my younger sister along."
Lin Qing frowned. He had been taking his younger sister to seek medical treatment all these years, so he naturally knew about it.
Some doctors even hinted to them that the little girl might not be their biological child, because everyone else in their family was fine except for the little girl, who was born with a problem with her legs.
However, their younger sister has been with them since birth. How could she not be their biological daughter?
He recalled the pair of eyes he had briefly seen yesterday—charming and beautiful peach blossom eyes, glistening with moisture, looking utterly pitiful.
Those eyes were almost identical to her mother's.
Thinking of those eyes, an indescribable feeling welled up inside me... making me want to get closer to her.
He returned to the hotel yesterday and waited all day but didn't receive a call from the girl.
I went to the Chinese Academy of Traditional Medicine today, hoping to see if I could run into her again.
Lin Qing didn't know why he wanted to find her, but he subconsciously wanted to see her again.
There's a feeling that if he misses out, he'll regret it immensely.
He already asked someone to help him inquire about the girl yesterday, and he probably has some news now.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Huo. I won't bother you any longer."
Lin Qing said this as he prepared to leave.
"Um."
...
Huo Tingxiao watched Lin Qing leave.
"Tingxiao, I feel like this person and Yue look somewhat alike. Do you think they might be related?"
Huo's mother came out and chatted with Huo Tingxiao while watching the departing people.
"Mom, you found out too?"
Huo Tingxiao turned to look at her.
The two do look alike.
Outsiders would naturally assume the two are related.
"I'm not blind," Huo's mother rolled her eyes at him, "Their eyes look like they were made from the same mold."
"But I heard that he has a younger sister, and he came here specifically to seek medical treatment for her. I chatted with him briefly, and wouldn't you know it, his sister was born on the same day as Xingyue."
Before Huo Tingxiao could speak, his mother continued talking to him.
Before Huo Tingxiao returned, his mother had chatted with him for quite a while.
Lin Qing is also a good young man. He is successful in his career at a young age and comes from a good family.
Born on the same day?
Huo Tingxiao hadn't asked about this, but when he heard his mother say it, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
They matched up again.
"Yes, they were born on the same day. And isn't that a coincidence? I even found out where his mother gave birth. Can you guess?"
The more Huo's mother inquired, the more coincidental it seemed.
When Huo's mother saw Lin Qing today, she thought he looked like Wen Xingyue, so she asked him a few more questions.
"S City People's Hospital." Huo Tingxiao didn't answer, but Huo's mother couldn't resist sharing, saying, "She was born in the same hospital as my mother-in-law."
"Tingxiao, do you think it's possible that Yueyue and her family were switched at birth?"
Mrs. Huo became more and more agitated as she spoke.
Twenty years ago, medical conditions were not very good, and it was not impossible for hospital staff to make mistakes due to negligence.
After all, Wen Lingyue made a mistake, so it's normal for several children to make the same mistake together.
They had thought about helping Xingyue find her parents before, but they had no clues and didn't know where to start. Now that Lin Qing has appeared and has so many matching characteristics, maybe they will find Xingyue's family by accident?
"They'll know when they see it."
Huo Tingxiao wasn't as agitated as his mother.
There are too many coincidences.
Maybe it really is.
"Well, we'll know when we meet. If it really is a mistake, Yueyue will have found her biological family."
