Chapter 218 Returning the Ashes



The long-buried past has been revealed.

The three of them wept uncontrollably.

They never imagined that Xiao Qi would die so tragically.

Zhou Meng slammed his fist on the table: "Who, who broke Qi Qi's back with a stick? I'll get my revenge!"

That bastard is so vicious.

They could even lay a hand on a girl who couldn't even kill a chicken.

"His name is Ding Xiaotong."

Ding Xiaotong.

The three, with tears in their eyes, shook their heads, indicating that they had never heard of such a person.

Xu Manzhi said, "His official identity is just a lowly clerk running errands for Deng Hui and others, but he also has a hidden identity with immense power, managing a large number of undercover agents..."

It concerns certain policies, so she couldn't say for sure.

But everyone present understood.

In recent years, there have been quite a few scoundrels who acted like bullies, relying on their master's power and influence.

But after some investigation, nothing could be hidden.

"Zhou Meng, this is what Qi Qi asked me to give you." Xu Manzhi took out a badge from her pocket, which had a shiny red star on it.

Upon seeing the badge, Zhou Meng's eyes lit up, his knees buckled, and he knelt on the ground, screaming hoarsely at Ye Ting and Liu Zhaodi, "Dad, Mom—"

"No, get up quickly." Ye Ting and Liu Zhaodi rushed to help him up.

Zhou Meng cried so hard his heart was breaking.

Back then, when he proposed to Qiqi, she took out a red star badge and smiled, saying, "When I had someone deliver this badge to you, it meant the time was right. You are now a member of the Ye family, and you can never go back on your word."

He had been waiting.

Even after an unexpected wedding, and Yan Lin taking "Ye Qiqi" away, they still didn't see this shining red star.

I thought I would never see him again in this lifetime.

It turns out that Xiaoqi had already given away the Red Star five years ago.

He cried uncontrollably.

Upon hearing this story, Ye Ting and Liu Zhaodi were filled with mixed emotions.

He couldn't accept Zhou Meng's identity.

"Mom and Dad, Mengzi, don't worry. Once we catch the mysterious spy, I can return to my original identity..." Xu Manzhi said.

During her narration, she naturally did not reveal the secret of her space, only mentioning that the group of people had run away and the matter of taking the face-changing pill.

Not many people know about this right now.

Ling Junye witnessed it firsthand.

After his incurable disease was cured, he had unwavering faith in Xu Manzhi's extraordinary abilities and medicine, and was not surprised by anything that happened.

At the same time, he also understood a principle.

Possessing a treasure is a crime.

His sister-in-law is too capable; exposing her to the public would only harm her. Therefore, he will not only not reveal the truth to outsiders, but will also do everything in his power to cover it up.

As for the Five Treasures...

Xu Manzhi wasn't in a hurry.

They were clueless. Even if they wanted to get their faces back, they couldn't change them all at once. They would gradually change them little by little through makeup and spending time together, like a frog being slowly boiled in water, until they would naturally no longer attract attention.

"This person is extremely vicious. He must be brought to justice, otherwise we will be letting Xiao Qi down." Ye Ting clenched his fist.

He was mentally prepared.

Hearing about her daughter's tragic experience, it would be a lie to say she wasn't hurt. But when she thought about how Xiaoqi died a heroic and worthy death, she couldn't help but feel proud of her.

No wonder he's a descendant of the Ye family.

Decisive and bold.

He gently patted Zhou Meng's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Child, from the first time Qi Qi called the Ye family and said that she had chosen you, we accepted you. From now on, you are our Ye family's son-in-law."

Xiaoqi's husband.

Zhou Meng nodded solemnly.

He hung the badge on his chest, a tear slid down, flowing from the badge and soaking his shirt. When he looked up again, his gaze fell on Xu Manzhi.

“Sister, since Xiaoqi calls you sister, you are our sister. From today onwards, as long as you need my help, even if it means risking my life, I will capture this villain to avenge Xiaoqi’s blood feud.”

Zhou Meng transformed his grief and indignation into hatred.

His Xiaoqi is a kind, courageous, and resolute girl.

Xiao Qi was willing to stay in Haicheng for a year, which shows that she must really like Xu Manzhi. Since he and she are of one mind, he naturally has no intention of moving.

There's also Wu Bao, who has already recognized him as his godfather.

He wants to protect Xiaoqi and the others.

“My little Qi…” Liu Zhaodi leaned limply against the table. “Mom finally knows where you are. From now on, we will take good care of Zhizhi.”

She never gave up.

But when she heard the ending with her own ears, her heart was torn apart, and her last shred of hope vanished completely.

"Mom and Dad—"

At this moment, Yan Lin entered the room carrying an urn containing ashes.

"Seven Seven—"

The three people present burst into tears again.

Their children and loved ones had always been protected by someone.

Zhou Meng staggered forward and took the urn from Yan Lin's hands: "Qiqi, my little Qi..."

The tears have all dried up.

My heart is parched.

He couldn't even cry.

Before, Yan Lin snatched Qi Qi from him; now, he is taking his beloved wife from Yan Lin's hands.

It seemed as if it were ordained by fate.

At this moment, the final link in the baton exchange was completed.

That day, the Ye family was filled with endless grief, their hearts broken.

Late into the night, Ye Ting suddenly said solemnly, "Don't announce this for now. We'll announce it after we catch the scoundrel."

Once you startle the snake, it will slip away as easily as a snake and become difficult to catch.

"good."

Everyone present agreed.

Xu Manzhi and Yan Lin returned to Lin Garden with Wu Bao.

Upon returning, Yan Zhouzhen and Wang Cuier were seen in the courtyard.

They were unaware that the "Ye Qiqi" in front of them was their daughter-in-law Xu Manzhi, but Wang Cuier couldn't help but beam with joy upon seeing Wu Bao.

She smiled and said, "These five children are all extraordinary. I feel a surge of joy just looking at them. Although they are of different sizes and do not all look exactly alike, their eyes are especially like Manzhi's..."

"Cough cough—"

Yan Zhouzhen coughed and reminded her not to mention the past in front of her new daughter-in-law, lest it cause a fight between the couple.

Wang Cuier understood immediately.

She hastily shut her mouth and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, I understand."

The two decided to stay in Haicheng and help them take care of their child.

"This is not good."

"sure."

Yan Lin looked at his wife with a look of disapproval.

However, it was Xu Manzhi.

She chuckled and said, "Hiring a nanny certainly reduces a lot of conflicts, but no one can love a child as much as their own grandparents. I think it's pretty good."

Yan Lin felt a little resentful.

Doesn't he know how well his own parents take care of their child?

If they can abandon their own son in a remote mountain village, how can they possibly raise a child from a generation apart?

Although he was extremely dissatisfied, his wife readily agreed.

What could he say?

However, in the days that followed, when he saw his parents spoiling their child, even carrying him on their backs when going out, he couldn't help but frown.

Isn't this going too far?

How can you spoil a child like that...
