Chapter 324 They Seem to Be Cousins
It was a big thing that Ouyang Feng fainted. So Ouyang Mingyu and Feng Manni put everything aside and rushed to the hospital. Fortunately, Ouyang Feng was always strong, so he became better after an infusion.
Ouyang Feng was sleeping in the ward next to Xia Xiaoluo’s, while Ouyang Mingyu and Feng Manni questioned Ouyang Ziqian and Xia Xiaoluo what happened to make Ouyang Feng faint like this.
Ouyang Ziqian told his parents everything before Ouyang Feng fainted, and then he added, “Father, did grandpa have a daughter? And then she disappeared suddenly?”
Ouyang Mingyu fell into deep thought. He did have a sister who was lost when they were young. His father spent a lot of energy searching for her, but finally he just found a rotten girl’s corpse. His mother couldn’t accept the fact and she died within a few months. His father dared not to mention it for many years. Ouyang Ziqian didn’t even know that he actually had an aunt.
Feng Manni knew a little, but she didn’t know the details. Because the Feng family and the Ouyang family were old family friends, so when the Ouyang family lost their daughter, the Feng family also helped a lot. And Feng Manni had played with Ouyang Mingfei when they were young. It was just because too many years passed and she had forgotten about it, and she thought that it was unnecessary to mention it.
After thinking for a while, Ouyang Mingyu asked Xiao Lan. “Tell me something about Xiaoluo’s mother! The more details, the better!”
Xiao Lan told them the things from she met Xiaoluo’s mother in the orphanage when she was a child, and the things that Xiaoluo’s mother married Xia Youfeng and had dystocia when she gave birth to Xiaoluo. She told them all.
“What’s her name at the orphanage?” Ouyang Mingyu asked.
“Lin Fei!” Xiao Lan said.
“Lin Fei, Mingfei. Lin Fei, Mingfei…” Ouyang Mingyu muttered.
Xia Xiaoluo was frightened by the unexpected scene. She stared at Ouyang Mingyu all the time, and she didn’t know what to say. But she felt that her mother seemed to have something to do with the Ouyang family.
Ouyang Mingyu knew clearly that they all called his sister ‘Mingfei’. When his sister was lost, she was more than three years old, so she should be able to remember something. He was afraid that when she was a child, she could not speak clearly. When she was in the orphanage, she didn’t say her name ‘Mingfei’ clearly, so she became ‘Lin Fei’ as Xiao Lan said.
Ouyang Mingyu understood why he felt a kind of familiarity after seeing Xia Xiaoluo suddenly, because Xiaoluo looked like her mother, and her mother was his own sister. And this inherited look was like his mother, who was called Meimei by Ouyang Feng.
Ouyang Mingyu’s eyes became bright, looking at Xia Xiaoluo, and then he took her hands.
“Uncle, you…” Xia Xiaoluo was a little scared.
“Xiaoluo, I may not be your uncle (father’s brother). Maybe one day you can call me uncle (mother’s brother). However, I need to investigate it. If you are really my sister’s child, I will treat you as my princess!” Ouyang Mingyu said.
Feng Manni had already guessed something from these things, but Ouyang Ziqian opened his mouth due to surprise. He couldn’t believe this fact. He fell deeply in love with a girl for the first time, but this girl may be his cousin. It was so outrageous. It was just the plot in novels and TV plays! He didn’t want to believe it and he couldn’t accept it.
At this time, the nurse came and said that Ouyang Feng woke up.
A group of people was standing beside Ouyang Feng’s bed. Of course, Xia Xiaoluo was also among them. Ouyang Feng pointed at Xia Xiaoluo directly. Xia Xiaoluo went to him and took his hands. “Grandpa Ouyang, are you feeling better now?”
“Xiaoluo, let’s do a DNA test, OK?” Ouyang Feng was full of expectation, waiting for Xia Xiaoluo’s reply.
Feng Manni rolled her eyes. She didn’t think that Xia Xiaoluo had the noble blood of the Ouyang family. Moreover, she didn’t want Xia Xiaoluo to be the child of the Ouyang family who was living outside. Otherwise, there would be a person to compete with her son for the property later. The inheritance right must be her son’s, but she didn’t want anyone to compete with her son for the manor, villa, luxurious cars and money.
“Xiaoluo, promise your grandpa!” What Ouyang Mingyu said made everyone stunned at present again.
“Mingyu! You know…” Ouyang Feng was a little excited, because Ouyang Mingyu guessed what he was thinking about.
“Father, I will arrange a DNA test as soon as possible. If Xiaoluo is really my sister’s daughter, then as her uncle, I must take good care of her and try my best to make up for her.” Ouyang Feng was very satisfied with Ouyang Mingyu’s words.
“OK, hurry up!” After Ouyang Feng finished, he took Xia Xiaoluo’s hands. He was reluctant to let Xia Xiaoluo go for even a moment. After so many years, he thought that his daughter was dead, but it was possible to have such a beautiful granddaughter now. His mood was very complicated, which made his heart be unable to bear it.
Xia Xiaoluo was still confused. Was her mother the lost daughter of the Ouyang family? How was this possible? Was she the child of the Ouyang family?
Ouyang Mingyu went to arrange for the DNA test, and Feng Manni followed him hurriedly.
“Why are you here? Take care of father!” Ouyang Mingyu said.
“Darling, it’s not good!” Feng Manni said anxiously, she pulled Ouyang Mingyu’s sleeve.
“What’s wrong? If Xiaoluo was my sister’s child, it’s an incredibly good thing!” Ouyang Mingyu was also very excited.
“No, think about it. Now only Ziqian in the Ouyang family is eligible for the inheritance, and he must inherit the property of the family in the future. Now Xia Xiaoluo comes, it is still not a problem. But she just gave birth to a son, and she hadn’t named him yet! If Xia Xiaoluo is really Mingfei’s child, that baby is the great-grandson of our father. The baby has no father, so our father must let the baby’s family name be Ouyang, which will be a great threat to Ziqian. Do you understand?” Feng Manni said.
“You think too much!” Ouyang Mingyu looked at Feng Manni scornfully. “Ziqian has the ability to create his own future. If Xiaoluo is indeed my niece, that baby must be entitled to the property of the Ouyang family. Moreover, I will try my best to make up for Xiaoluo and give the baby the best education.”
“Darling, how can you…” Feng Manni was speechless. But Ouyang Mingyu always had his own opinions. Now she had no way to persuade Ouyang Mingyu, so she had to find a way to deal with it on her own.
“Besides, I warn you! If it is proved that Xia Xiaoluo is my niece, you will be her aunt. You must be kind to her, and should take good care of her and her baby. You are responsible for it!” After Ouyang Mingyu finished, he strode away.
Ouyang Mingyu brought the medical staff to collect the blood samples quickly. Although Xia Xiaoluo always felt that it was not reliable, she agreed to draw blood.
“OK, Xiaoluo, we will know the results in 48 hours. However, my intuition is very accurate. You are most probably my niece.” Ouyang Mingyu said to Xia Xiaoluo. In fact, the doctor said that as well, but Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t understand English, so he had to translate it for Xia Xiaoluo.
At this time, Ouyang Feng seemed to feel better than just now. He asked Ouyang Mingyu to help him to sit on the bed. He said to Xia Xiaoluo, “Xiaoluo! I knew the things about your mother just now. Now tell grandpa something about your life in your childhood.”
Although the test report hasn’t come out yet, Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Mingyu said that they were Xia Xiaoluo’s grandpa and uncle, which made Xia Xiaoluo very nervous. Meanwhile, Ouyang Ziqian was very depressed.
He went to the balcony alone. Looking at the distance quietly, he was about to collapse.
Ouyang Ziqian was very confused. On one hand, he hoped that Xiaoluo was his cousin, so his grandpa and father would be very happy. On the other hand, he didn’t want Xiaoluo to be his cousin, because he loved her.
Xia Xiaoluo told them many things when she was a child. Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Mingyu were so angry that they wanted to kill someone.
“Why do you have such an unreliable father? He is worse than dogs and pigs.”
“And your stepmother and stepsister, they’re all bastards.”
“The most abominable thing was that my sister died after childbirth, Xia Youfeng remarried, and the stepchild was even elder than Xiaoluo. My sister is so poor. This account must be settled!”
“We will make Xia Youfeng suffer the same misery like Xiaoluo and Mingfei. Although I am old, I am still strong enough and I have the ability!”
……
……
Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Mingyu kept denouncing Xia Youfeng and the Xia family. Xia Xiaoluo swallowed saliva at this time. Fortunately, she didn’t say anything about Ling Tianyi. Otherwise, the baby’s father would be in trouble. Even if Ling Tianyi made many mistakes, she still loved him. Even if they wouldn’t meet each other for the whole life, she still hoped that he could live a happy life.
“By the way, Xiaoluo, where is my great-grandson’s real father? Why did he leave you alone?” Ouyang Feng asked Xia Xiaoluo a question, making her embarrassed.
“Well, I… I…” Xia Xiaoluo faltered, not knowing how to answer this question.
“Grandpa, don’t ask Xiaoluo anymore. She doesn’t want to tell us now. Let’s not embarrass her, OK?” Ouyang Ziqian came from the balcony and helped Xia Xiaoluo.
“Yes, that DNA report hasn’t come out yet. Maybe it’s all a misunderstanding!” Xia Xiaoluo smiled bitterly.
“Regardless of whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, even if the DNA tests prove that we have nothing to do with each other, you are destined to be the members of the Ouyang family due to your appearance. We will be in charge of this. I will never let that Xia Youfeng go!” Ouyang Feng gnashed his teeth.
“He, after all, he is my own father.” Xia Xiaoluo said sadly.
Xia Xiaoluo felt lucky that she only said that Xia Youfeng didn’t care about her. If Sir Ouyang knew that Xia Jingru pushed her into the well, and Xia Youfeng still delayed the time to save her on purpose, which almost killed her. She was afraid that Sir Ouyang would go to kill Xia Youfeng and the Xia family now.
“Grandpa, father, let’s respect Xiaoluo’s decision on these things! Don’t embarrass her. She’s miserable enough.” Ouyang Ziqian continued to help Xia Xiaoluo, and Xia Xiaoluo was very grateful to him.
Xia Xiaoluo knew Ouyang Ziqian’s feelings to her. He proposed to her so sincerely, but now they seemed to be cousins.
“Thank you, Senior Ouyang!” Xia Xiaoluo didn’t know how to face Ouyang Ziqian, but her heart was full of gratitude.
