"Mu Yiqing is now the mayor of Fan City. He's already married and has children," Shen Tingxi said.
"Mayor … Mayor?" Old Zhao's face paled. He didn't expect that fair and clean young man to be such a high-ranking official. However, after a few seconds, Old Zhao sneered and said in a mocking tone, "Such an irresponsible man can actually become a mayor. How can the people under him live a good life?"
The woman sat back down on the chair. Mu Yiqing was such a high-ranking official. How could she seek justice for her daughter?
Shen Tingxi said, "He met Ning Ning in Fan City now. He should know that Ning Ning is his daughter. Not only did he give Ning Ning two hundred thousand, he also bought her a house worth more than two million. These were all secretly bought by Mu Yiqing. Ning Ning didn't know at all. She didn't even know that Mu Yiqing might be her biological father. She only treated him as an elder from the same hometown."
"Bah!" Old Zhao spat, his face full of anger. "Who cares about his stinky money? If it weren't for him, would my daughter have been laughed at and given birth before marriage? In order not to implicate us, Ping 'er left with Ning Ning, who was only ten years old. If it weren't for him, their family wouldn't have been separated. My daughter wouldn't have died so young. All of this was caused by him. I want to kill him. He can forget about getting close to Ning Ning. "
The woman nodded and cried at the side. She kept saying that her daughter had a hard life and that she had met a bad man.
Shen Tingxi's heart was still quite comforted. At least, the two elders were not the kind of people who were blinded by money. They were sincere to Zhao Xiangping and Mu Ningjing. In today's society, there were too many people who valued money and ignored feelings. Although they were not rich, they still maintained a kind and sincere heart.
"Although Mu Yiqing is very likely to be Ning Ning's biological father, this is still a big matter. We can't be careless. Think about it. Is there any way to contact Aunt Zhao or someone Mu Yiqing knew in the past to understand the situation?" Shen Tingxi said.
Old Zhao nodded. "This is a big matter. We can't be careless." But at that time, he only cared about working to earn money to support the family. He went to work during the day and went home to sleep at night. He knew very little about his children. He turned to look at his wife. "Do you know?"
The woman replied, "Huanhuan. At that time, she and Ping 'er were the closest. They grew up together and went to university together. When Ping' er was mocked by everyone for being pregnant, only Huanhuan often came over to comfort her and talk to her."
Old Zhao frowned. "But Huanhuan has been married for a long time and is no longer in the village."
Shen Tingxi asked, "Where did she marry to?"
"In the city. She found a job in the city after she finished university. Later, she settled down in the city." The woman began to cry again. "Our Ping 'er could have been as successful as her … She could have been the same … My Ping' er …"
Old Zhao's eyes were cloudy, but when he saw Shen Tingxi, he sighed and suppressed his emotions. "The city is a little far from here. It will take three to four hours by car. At this time, the bus has already run out."
Shen Tingxi said, "I drove here. It's convenient."
The woman wiped away the tears on her face and looked at Shen Tingxi. "It's so late. You haven't eaten yet, right? After eating, rest for the night and go tomorrow, okay?"
Shen Tingxi wanted to go immediately, but he thought that it would be midnight by the time they reached the city. They would definitely be asleep, so he could only nod.
After eating, the two elders chatted with Shen Tingxi for a long time. They asked about Zhao Xiangping and Mu Ning Jing.
Shen Tingxi picked and chose to tell them some things. He told them about Mu Ning Jing's stepfather and Mu Ning Jing's psychological trauma and obstacles. Shen Tingxi did not mention these things. If he did, it would only make the two elders sadder, and they would not be able to solve the problem.
When they asked about Zhao Xiangping's death, Shen Tingxi also lied to them. He only said that she was overworked and her body collapsed. She died of an illness.
Overall, Shen Tingxi only reported the good news and not the bad news.
When the two elders knew that their granddaughter was doing well, they felt a lot more comforted.
Shen Tingxi also promised them that he would bring Ningning back to visit them next time. He originally wanted to bring the two elders directly to Fan City, but Mu Ning Jing had not returned home. She must have her concerns. If he suddenly brought her back, he was afraid that Mu Ning Jing would not be able to adapt.
On the other hand, Mu Ning Jing's situation was not very good now. Shen Tingxi did not want the two elders to worry.
The two elders were very satisfied with Shen Tingxi, their grandson-in-law. He was dressed extravagantly and even had his own car. This meant that his family was not bad. Their granddaughter would definitely have a good life with him. Although Shen Tingxi made people afraid to approach him, they could tell that Shen Tingxi really cared about their granddaughter. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that he came all the way here to find their granddaughter's family was touching.
Early the next morning, Shen Tingxi brought the two elders to the city to find Huanhuan. When Huanhuan found out that her childhood friend had passed away, needless to say, she cried bitterly.
Zhao Xiangping's mother guessed correctly. Huanhuan did know about what happened back then.
Zhao Xiangping and Mu Yiqing had known each other since their first year of university. Mu Yiqing pursued Zhao Xiangping for two years. The two of them only confirmed their relationship at the end of the second semester of their second year of university. Not long after their third year of university, the two of them got together.
Zhao Xiangping got pregnant in the second semester of their third year of university. At that time, Mu Yiqing was preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination and wanted Zhao Xiangping to abort the child first. Zhao Xiangping did not agree. Because of this, the two of them had a conflict and did not speak for a few days.
Later, Mu Yiqing took the initiative to apologize to Zhao Xiangping and said that he would not take the postgraduate entrance examination. He would go home and explain the situation to his family before marrying her.
Zhao Xiangping was kind-hearted. Naturally, she did not want Mu Yiqing to delay his future because of her. She decided to wait for him so that he could rest assured and take the postgraduate entrance examination. The child was the product of their love. She could not bear to abort it. She said that her husband would come down and marry her when he was successful in his studies. Then, the family of three would live a sweet life together.
At that time, Zhao Xiangping's grades were also very good. It was not a problem for her to take the postgraduate entrance examination. However, she resolutely gave up this opportunity for Mu Yiqing. She was afraid that her family would have a bad impression of Mu Yiqing and let her get pregnant before she graduated. Therefore, she had been hiding it from her parents. She only wanted to endure it for a while.
However, after Mu Yiqing passed the postgraduate entrance examination, he did not continue to study in the school. Instead, he was sent abroad by his family.
Before he went abroad, Mu Yiqing did not even see Zhao Xiangping. He only sent her a message, asking her to wait for him. He would definitely study hard and find a good job in the future so that she and their child could live a good life.
This wait lasted for three years. Three years later, Mu Yiqing returned to the country and told his family about his relationship with Zhao Xiangping. He also said that the two of them already had a daughter and hoped that his family would agree.
