"So, their family's imprisonment was partly orchestrated by you, Dad?"
Snap!
Xu Tianqin had no time to dodge and was hit squarely on the forehead by the cigarette box that Old Master Xu had casually picked up.
"Who do you take me for? If they didn't commit crimes, what else could I do?"
In summary, if they themselves don't commit crimes, then no one else can do whatever they want.
The Xu family has a very upright family tradition.
They wouldn't resort to underhanded methods to retaliate.
However, this result was far too frustrating for Gao Dan.
The person is already in prison; you can't just barge in and kill them, can you?
Gao Dan clenched his fists tighter and tighter, his eyes blazing with fury.
At this moment, Old Master Xu spoke up again:
"That girl couldn't stand how much we doted on Nannan. Despite her young age, she's incredibly malicious. She even teamed up with some thugs to try and bully our Nannan."
Nannan was clever and escaped on her own, but she was still young, and it was dark in the mountains where she was completely unfamiliar with the area. On her way out, she accidentally fell off a cliff and into the sea.
Thankfully, I'm alright. Although I was injured and lost my memory, I survived!
What could be more fortunate than being alive?
Therefore, over the years, Mr. Xu has become somewhat more at ease.
My adopted daughter was lost, but ended up in the Gu family and was taken such good care of by the Gu family elders. I have to thank the Gu family from the bottom of my heart for that.
Although what happened later was too sudden and too unsatisfactory!
But it's impossible to erase the Gu family's life-saving grace.
If it weren't for this, even if the Gu family had sent someone, they wouldn't have been able to take away their young grandson.
Unfortunately, those who value family were still wrong!
The child had no intention of going back. Not long after, they ran away from home and disappeared without a trace. They've been gone for over twenty years! (From Wuyou Novel Network)
How many twenty-odd years does one have in a lifetime?
"Xiao Dan, that's all for your mother's story. Is there anything else you want to know?"
Upon hearing Old Master Xu's question, Gao Dan's eyebrows twitched, and his fist loosened slightly.
"Grandpa, you said my mother isn't from the Qian family, so do you know whose family she actually is?"
The problem has returned to square one, and Old Master Xu snorted a few times:
"Anyway, they're not from the Qian family, but they do have some connection to them!"
Um?
At that moment, Old Man Xu, who had been eavesdropping, also looked over.
"Dad, what does that mean?" he asked.
The old man sighed again:
"Your grandmother and I investigated for many years, and finally, our hard work paid off and we found out. But it would have been better if we hadn't investigated at all!"
So, what exactly happened?
Grandpa Xu fell into deep thought, his old face furrowing deeply.
"Your mother was the daughter of a servant in the Qian family. She lived in the Qian family since she was a child and was the page of Miss Qian."
Miss Qian's page?
Isn't she just a maid?
But whether she was a maid or not is no longer important, she's been gone for so many years, hasn't she?
Sure enough, it seems that only Old Master Xu knows about his adopted daughter!
The study was always quiet, except for the occasional sound of Old Master Xu's voice:
"That Miss Qian is quite nice. She has always been very good to your mother and has never treated her like a maid or servant."
But that's why your mother was on that cruise ship in the first place!
