Stealing Your Heart Chapter 337
Bai Yinning was stumped. There was reason in her words.
“But I’m his son. How can I be indifferent to his suffering?” He was so obsessed with avenging Bai Hongfei. The man raised him and gave everything belonging to the Bai family to him when he was not related to him by blood.
Bai Yinning was grateful yet also heartbroken that such a devoted man lost his lover and was tortured. More than anything, he felt unfair on his behalf.
Even though he knew that B City was not his territory, he still wanted to reclaim justice for Bai Hongfei!
Cheng Yuxiu fixed her gaze on Bai Yinning for a long time. She had to admit that what he said made sense too. If the latter was indifferent to the suffering of someone he cared about, then he must be cold-blooded.
“I have said everything I came here to say, and I cannot stop you if you insist. However, this is B City, not Baicheng. They are out in the open while you are in the dark. You may have the upper hand this time, but I’m afraid it might not end well.”
Bai Yinning came to B City and premeditated the car accident without Wen Qing’s and Zong Jinghao’s knowledge. He understood that once any of them found out his identity, it would be difficult for him to make a move again.
“I can’t leave any regrets.”
Cheng Yuxiu could tell that Bai Yinning had made up his mind, and she couldn’t persuade him further. She could only let him be.
The least she could do for Bai Hongfei was to watch over him.
She stood up.. “I should go now.”
However, Bai Yinning did not give any response.
As Cheng Yuxiu twisted the door handle and was about to open the door, Bai Yinning stopped her. “My adoptive father said he hoped I would marry your daughter.”
Cheng Yuxiu paused and looked back at him while Bai Yinning turned her wheelchair to face her.
“You have given birth to a child. I really want to know where your child is now. If it is a girl, I would like to follow my adoptive father’s wish and marry her.”
Cheng Yuxiu tightened her fingers around the door handle and said, “I have never given birth to a child.”
“That’s impossible!” Bai Yinning replied with force and conviction. If Cheng Yuxiu had never given birth to a child, why would Bai Hongfei’s last wish be for him to marry her daughter?
There was only one possibility. Bai Hongfei knew Cheng Yuxiu was pregnant, but he didn’t know whether she was carrying a boy or a girl. He might have wanted it to be a girl so that Bai Yinning could marry her.
Cheng Yuxiu was flustered for a moment, but she quickly calmed down. “I married into the Zong family afterward. Everyone knows that I have never had a baby in my life.”
Bai Yinning looked at her with a sharp gaze and guessed, “Your child is Zong Jinghao.”
Cheng Yuxiu’s heart sank. “Do you have evidence?”
“I don’t. I have no way of finding out what happened back then. However, some things could not be disputed. For example, why did my adoptive father give up on you and stayed single throughout his life for you? The reason was simple. You had a child with another man; he had no choice but to let you go. Even if he were reluctant, even if his heart ached, he could only let you go. He knows how important a child is to a mother. Maybe you didn’t really love the person who impregnant you, but you would stay for the sake of the child…”
Cheng Yuxiu cut him off and said, “I don’t want to hear your wild guesses anymore! Go back to Baicheng.”
“Forgive me for being rude,” Bai Yinning apologized. “Since I am here now, I won’t leave that easily. Even if I have to leave, I will do so after achieving my goal.”
Seeing how she avoided the topic, he could affirm his guess. What he lacked now was evidence.
If he could find proof that Cheng Yuxiu gave birth to Zong Jinghao, it would be easier for him to deal with Wen Qing. Maybe he would have another helping hand.
After all, Cheng Yuxiu was also imprisoned for six years.
