Chapter 220: Chapter 220 Bad Premonition_1 Chapter 220: Chapter 220 Bad Premonition_1 “Mom, you may not want to hear what I have to say, but I need to tell you something. Maybe then, you’ll understand my perspective.”

Under the pressure of relentless blows, Yuan Xueshan deeply regretted her actions over the years. She was too prideful to admit her mistakes.

Deep down, she knew she was wrong, but she didn’t want to admit it.

“I have heard what you said, of course, but Jinlan is the daughter I raised with my own hands, it’s been so many years of affection! I know she has done some things wrong, but after all…”

“Don’t say anymore…” Huo Beijiang interrupted with a wave of his hand, “Just let me tell you something.”

“Go ahead.”

Huo Linong, who had been silently watching his son’s growing impatience, suddenly had a very bad premonition.

“You know that Jinlan’s biological mother is Jing Tong, right?”

“I know!”

“So do you know what the relationship between Jing Tong and my father was?”

Yuan Xueshan was taken aback, “What relationship? Weren’t He Rongxi and your father classmates?”

Huo Beijiang smirked, “You’re really naive. Originally my father, He Rongxi, and Jing Tong were all classmates. Furthermore, Jing Tong was my father’s first love, the one he’s held onto in his heart for so many years.”

Huo Linong could no longer stand by quietly, he stood up angrily and scolded, “You damn kid, what nonsense are you spouting? There’s no such thing.”

This time, before Huo Beijiang could reply, Yuan Xueshan shouted, “You shut up,” then turned to Huo Beijiang in a gentler tone, “Tell me, son, make it clear today.”

Ignoring Huo Linong completely, Huo Beijiang threw out his hands, half-jokingly, half-seriously saying, “How does it feel to have been raising your rival’s daughter all these years? Let me be honest with you! My father adopting Jinlan from the beginning was a lie.”

Yuan Xueshan could no longer support her own weight, and sank onto the sofa, her hands covering her face, weeping in despair.

The adopted daughter she cherished as her life, the one she devoted all her heart and efforts to, was really all for her rival’s benefit.

All of it was a scam from beginning to end.

A lie.

Huo Linong was frantic, “Xue Shan, listen to me, it’s not like that at all, it’s nonsense from Bei Jiang. There’s no such thing, he’s lying to you.”

“The person who deceived me is you,” Yuan Xueshan cried out, pushing Huo Linong away and rushing into her bedroom, slamming the door shut from inside.

The living room was silent again.

Huo Linong turned around, angrily saying, “You bastard, are you happy now that you’ve smeared my name?”

“Dad, I didn’t slander you,” Huo Beijiang calmly wiped the dust off his pants, “When you were in college, did you have a romantic liaison with Jing Tong?”

“No.”

“Think carefully, did she pursue you? In the end, didn’t she scorn you for not having money, status, or prospects, and threw herself into someone else’s arms?”

Huo Linong’s eyes widened. How did this brat know everything?

Zhou Yongxian chimed in from the side, supporting her grandson, “Bei Jiang is right, that’s a romantic liaison. You didn’t clarify it with Xue Shan, so you’re in the wrong.”

“Moreover, all the trouble in Nan Fei’s family boils down to you. If you hadn’t been involved, would He Rongxi and Jing Tong have caused such a ruckus?”

This was Huo Beijiang’s real goal.

Huo Linong finally understood, sighing in helplessness and self-blame, “I am indeed responsible, I admit it! Don’t worry, I will take care of the aftermath, since this all stemmed from my mismanagement.”
