"I don't know what you're talking about?" Yang Pojun replied calmly to Guo Xuehua's question.
Guo Xuehua seemed to be even more convinced of her guess. She said, "That day at the orphanage, when I met Yang Cheng for the first time, I felt that he looked very similar to that young man. It was as if he was an old friend of mine, but I couldn't remember who he was, so I didn't think too much about it. Today, when I went to beg him to save Lie 'er, I also felt a strange feeling when I saw him … I don't understand why, even though I don't know him, I feel that we have an inexplicable fate … "
Guo Xuehua smiled sadly and said, "Only a muddle-headed mother like me can't even feel it when I'm facing my own child. When I saw you just now, it suddenly occurred to me that Yang Cheng looks very similar to you when you were young. Although your looks are different, the contours are almost the same. Your eyes, your nose bridge, they are almost exactly the same … "
"Xuehua, you're thinking too much. It's just a coincidence," Yang Pojun said with a complicated look in his eyes.
Guo Xuehua sneered, "Coincidence? Yes, it's a coincidence. His surname is Yang, and he looks very similar to you. When I first saw him, I didn't know him at all, but I felt that he looked very familiar … Oh yes, when Aunt saw him just now, she actually spoke to him as if he was her relative. What a coincidence, Aunt actually knows this young man. Also, when I begged him to treat Lie 'er, when I knelt down to beg him, he told me not to kneel down to him anymore … "
"What!!??" Yang Pojun's eyes widened. "You said that you knelt down to him?! How could you kneel down to your own son!!?? "
When Yang Pojun finished his sentence in rage, he suddenly realized that this was a trap set up by Guo Xuehua!
As expected, Guo Xuehua's eyes revealed a wisp of wild joy. Her chest rose and fell as if she had obtained a new life. Her body trembled as she looked at Yang Pojun with tearful eyes.
"You … you finally admitted it … Yang Cheng … Yang Cheng … that child, really is my son … really is …"
The corners of Yang Pojun's eyes twitched violently. With a gloomy expression, he said, "So what? He appeared at the wrong time."
Unexpectedly, Guo Xuehua didn't listen to what he said after that. She only heard that the answer was yes. Guo Xuehua was already immersed in ecstasy and couldn't extricate herself!
Her tears gushed out like a spring. Her son, who she had been missing for more than 20 years, was actually alive and well in this world. Guo Xuehua felt that all the haze in her heart had been blown away by a gentle breeze.
"My … my son, I knew … I would definitely find him …"
Guo Xuehua wiped her tears and walked towards the door with a gratified smile.
"Where are you going?!" Yang Pojun suddenly moved in front of Guo Xuehua, blocking Guo Xuehua from leaving the door.
Guo Xuehua said anxiously, "Of course I'm going to find Yang Cheng! I'm going to tell him that mom has been looking for him for more than 20 years. I'm going to tell him immediately! "
"Do you think that he doesn't know that you are his mother?" Yang Pojun asked.
Guo Xuehua was stunned. She thought about how Yang Cheng had asked her not to kneel down to him. Didn't he know her identity?
"He knows that you are his mother and I am his father, but that kid treats us like strangers. Do you think that he will be nice to you if you go to him?" Yang Pojun asked again.
Guo Xuehua clutched her chest and felt a sharp pain in her heart. But then, she bit her lips and took a deep breath. She said, "We have left him alone for more than 20 years. Of course he will hate us and refuse to acknowledge us. But this is not the same as me acknowledging him. I will let him know that my love for him has never lessened. I will use the rest of my life to make it up to him. So, whether he is willing to acknowledge me or not, I will go see him and tell him the truth. "
Yang Pojun said angrily, "Ignorant! Do you know what the consequences of doing this will be?! If outsiders know that our Yang Family has a son out of nowhere, how will they look at us?! What happened in the past will be dug up. Not only me, but you, and even father! Our whole family! We will be humiliated! Do you know that?! "
"But aren't we the ones who caused this?! Are you going to ignore your own children and pretend that they don't exist just because of your pride?! "Guo Xuehua screamed.
Yang Pojun said proudly, "I am doing this for the Yang Family. For the glory of our family, sacrificing a kid who has been missing for more than 20 years is nothing!"
Guo Xuehua was so angry that she laughed. She looked at her husband who was like a stranger to her. "Yang Pojun … How did you become like this? You weren't like this before … You told me that you would definitely bring the child home from the orphanage with me … The child was gone, and you were crying in the room … Didn't you say that you would find the child with me? Why … Why is it that the current you only thinks of doing these ridiculous things for the sake of your own position and your own power? Is it because in your eyes, the glory of the family is giving up your own children? Is it to make your wife look down on you?! "
"Slap!!!"
Yang Pojun couldn't take it anymore and slapped Guo Xuehua's right cheek!
Guo Xuehua was an ordinary woman. After being slapped by a military expert like Yang Pojun, her body flew to the side. Her right cheek swelled up, and she fell to the ground. Her eyes were red from crying, and they were filled with shock and confusion. She was stunned!
Yang Pojun looked at his wife's stunned and disbelieving expression. His heart ached, and he regretted it. He quickly went forward to help Guo Xuehua up.
"Xuehua … I … I didn't do it on purpose …"
"Don't worry about me!!"
Guo Xuehua pushed away Yang Pojun's hand and staggered to stand up. She touched her swollen cheeks and smiled, "Yang Pojun … I've been married to you for almost twenty-five years … Ever since I met you, no matter what I did or said, you've never scolded me … You've never scolded me … You've never scolded me …
Today, you actually hit me to stop me from seeing my son that I've been separated from for more than 20 years? "
Yang Pojun closed his eyes, and calmed his emotions. He said solemnly, "Xuehua, it's my fault for hitting you. But you have to know that if you acknowledge him, I will lose the election next year! Then, no one from the Yang Family will be able to enter the core of the country for the next 10 years. Do you know what this means to the Yang Family? Do you know how many people who rely on the Yang Family will lose their support? Do you know how many people will be affected?
"Do you think I don't know? With father-in-law's face, so what if you can't become the vice-chairman of the military commission? His students are everywhere in the central government … Without you, the Yang Family will at most stagnate, and will no longer be the top family. So what? " Guo Xuehua laughed coldly. "You're just unwilling, aren't you? Unwilling to give up the power in your hands, unwilling to give up all these years of operation, unable to put down your old face …"
"You!! … "
Yang Pojun, whose face was red and white, waved his hand. He wanted to hit her again, but when he saw Guo Xuehua looking at him with a smile, he couldn't bring himself to hit her.
With a cold snort, Yang Pojun turned around and opened the door.
Outside the door, Guo Xuehua's guards, Little Wen and Little Li, were already waiting. They could vaguely hear the adults arguing in the room, and they were frightened.
"Chief!"
When the two saw Yang Pojun, they immediately greeted him respectfully.
Yang Pojun said to the two girls. "Bring Madam back to the courtyard. From today onwards, without my permission, Madam is not allowed to contact the outside world, and is not allowed to leave the courtyard. If there is anyone who wants to see Madam, report to me. Without my permission, no one is allowed to see her!"
"Yang Pojun! You can't do this!! I want to see Yang Cheng!! " When Guo Xuehua heard that Yang Pojun wanted to imprison her and prevent her from seeing Yang Cheng, she immediately shouted anxiously.
Little Wen and Little Li looked at each other awkwardly, and nodded. "Yes."
Although they were Guo Xuehua's personal guards, they were also Yang Pojun's female soldiers. As soldiers, they had to obey.
Yang Pojun turned around and looked at his wife, who was filled with resentment and unwillingness. He hesitated for a while, and wanted to say something, but in the end, he just turned around indifferently and strode away.
"Madam, come back with us!" Little Wen said to Guo Xuehua sorrowfully. Although they didn't know why the Chief wanted to treat Madam like this, they felt that no matter how pitiful Madam was, they had to follow the Chief's wishes to control her.
However, Guo Xuehua didn't seem to hear them at all. Her legs went soft, and she sat on the ground with lifeless eyes. She muttered something, but no one could hear it clearly.
