Chapter 529: Biological Mother
The lightning dissipated, and Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying had already sat on the maglev speedster and quickly drove out of the Star Boundary Department.
"That idiot Li Xuan still has the nerve to bother you." Zhao Manying snorted contemptuously.
"Ignore him."
Ji Xinghuo had a bad opinion of Li Xuan, but he had no life-or-death hatred. As long as Li Xuan stopped sticking to him like a dog-skin plaster, he would not do anything to him.
"Yeah." Zhao Manying nodded, "Where are we going?"
"Yunhai invited us to dinner in the evening. It is said to be a century-old restaurant with a relatively remote location and guaranteed privacy. He tried his best to let us have a try. He has said it several times." Ji Xinghuo replied with a smile.
Lu Yunhai's strength has greatly increased because of that black smoker, and his status in his wife Fang Yinping's family has also increased.
Now that his fame is spread all over the world, he doesn't have many real friends anymore.
Ji Xinghuo also cherished it.
Three hours later.
The restaurant really lived up to its reputation. Ji Xinghuo and the two returned home enjoying themselves, and even packed the food for Qinghong to bring back so that she could also taste the delicious food.
"Ho ho ho."
Qinghong's eyes lit up after taking two bites, and she raised a paw to give a thumbs up.
Doomsday's head came over, sniffed and then stepped back. It has been eating and drinking with Qinghong these days, and has learned to taste human food, but its taste is even more tricky than Qinghong's. There are only a few foods that it likes, and it gets tired of it after eating it two or three times.
While Ji Xinghuo caressed the dragon horns on Doomsday's head and got close to him, he turned on his phone and scrolled through messages in boredom.
Suddenly a call came in.
He picked it up and said with a smile: "Sister, you still haven't rested at this late hour?"
"Aren't you still asleep?" Ye Dongyun's image was projected, and he turned to look around the living room, "Where is Manying?"
"She went to take a shower."
"Oh." Ye Dongyun nodded, but did not continue the topic.
Ji Xinghuo could tell at a glance that she had something to say.
"Did something happen? You still encountered difficulties in cultivation. Just tell me, eldest sister, and I will definitely be able to help you solve it."
Ye Dongyun's talent is average, at best below average. Although she has a lot of resources and guidance, she is also very diligent and hardworking, practicing most of the time every day, but her evolution speed is still not very fast.
"It's not my business." Ye Dongyun said hesitantly, "Actually, it has something to do with you. I've thought about it for a long time and think it's up to you to decide."
"Is it related to me?"
Ji Xinghuo looked confused.
"Yes." Ye Dongyun has obviously been thinking about it for a long time, "Feifei told me first. She is now involved in the entertainment industry and decided to become a star singer. At the beginning of last month, Feifei and her team met a person at a music party , the other party made a request and wants to see you. "
Ji Xinghuo didn't take it seriously. There were too many people who wanted to see him now.
Family, friends and classmates have all encountered this kind of request and want them to be the intermediary and introduce them to me.
The purpose of those people is obvious.
He saw none.
"Just let Feifei refuse." Ji Xinghuo said.
"I think so too, but that person's identity is unusual." Ye Dongyun said softly: "Her name is Xin Yimo, and she claims to be your biological mother. She also has a photo of you when you were born."
Ji Xinghuo was stunned.
Xin Yimo, this name is very strange, but I will never forget it.
On his 22nd birthday, he saw his birth file and the information about his biological parents. Xia Qingyu and Xin Yimo, what happened to them back then, the process of abandoning themselves and entrusting them to the government, and their signed statements voluntarily giving up custody rights.
In the star realm, Ji Xinghuo has already met Xia Qingyu.
This person is a born libertine and does not have many shortcomings except for being a bit romantic.
Ji Xinghuo regarded him as an ordinary friend and a passer-by in life.
As for Xin Yimo, Ji Xinghuo had no special feelings. He neither resented her for giving up on him when her life was at a low point, nor did he look forward to finding her mother's warmth from her. He didn't want to disturb her life, so they could both be well.
However……
Ji Xinghuo shook his head secretly. It seemed that Xin Yimo didn't think so.
Seeing that he was silent, Ye Dongyun couldn't help asking: "Third brother, is she really your biological mother?"
"Probably." Ji Xinghuo nodded.
He had never mentioned the name Xin Yimo to anyone else. Xia Qingyu never came back from the star realm, so only Xin Yimo knew about it.
"Ms. Xin said that she only knew Ji Xinghuo was you after watching your video, and said that you look exactly like your father." Ye Dongyun said, "Feifei didn't want to pay attention to her at first, but she heard what she said seemed true. tell me."
Ji Xinghuo glanced at Ye Dongyun and said, "Sister, you should have investigated it, right?"
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Ye Dongyun smiled helplessly, "I must be careful about this kind of thing and can't tell you in a hurry."
She sent a document over.
"This is the information I asked someone to investigate. Third brother, you can read it yourself."
Ji Xinghuo opened the file and browsed through it quickly.
As the head of the family, Ye Dongyun was originally a strong woman. Now she controls tens of billions of family funds. She uses the wealth of the fund and the influence of Sister Ji Xinghuo's identity to have considerable power in the country.
She relied solely on her personal connections to find out everything about Xin Yimo, including her current husband's family.
After Xin Yimo gave up his son, he returned to Strait City and worked in film and television.
Two years later I met my current husband.
She got married when she was 30 years old.
For a woman with an ordinary background, a good resume, excellent work ability, and good looks, being able to marry into the Qi family, which is quite influential in the entertainment industry in Straits City, is a complete class jump.
A few years after their marriage, they gave birth to a boy and a girl, settled down as the wife of the Qi family, and began to participate in the family's media and entertainment company.
A few years ago, Qijia's company was successfully listed.
By this year, the stock price has doubled several times, and the total market value is nearly 10 billion.
In the eyes of outsiders, Xin Yimo and his wife have successful careers, two children, and a happy family life. They are truly successful people, more than 99% of people, and most ordinary people can only look up to them.
But under the glamorous appearance, Xin Yimo has difficulties and bitterness that are difficult to tell others.
Since more than ten years ago, the couple had been at odds with each other and had been separated for a long time.
The reason is that Xin Yimo's husband thinks that she has too much involvement in the company. The real person in charge of the Qi family is her father-in-law. Her husband's son is not the only one, but there are also three other children, all of whom are senior executives in the company. Xin Yimo was very dissatisfied.
Seeing this, Ji Xinghuo lost interest.
There was nothing new about this kind of struggle for power within a family business, and he didn't want to know about it at all.
It was also mentioned later that Xin Yimo's husband was suspected of cheating and keeping multiple women outside.
The files come with information about those women.
Ji Xinghuo scanned it casually and muttered in his heart: "The taste is quite mixed..."
He closed the document.
"Want to meet?" Ye Dongyun asked, "Ms. Xin came to Chang'an last month and has never returned."
"I only met once." Ji Xinghuo didn't hesitate for too long and replied: "Sister, help arrange a place and contact her. The time will be tomorrow afternoon. I will go there after I finish practicing."
He didn't want to get involved in Xin Yimo's affairs and give her undue expectations.
Meeting her once was a way to repay her life-long love.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Ye Dongyun hung up the phone and sent a message a few minutes later. She had made arrangements and included the meeting address. Ji Xinghuo put down the phone and stared at the night view outside the window in trance.
Zhao Manying came out in pajamas. She heard it from the next door. She sat next to Ji Xinghuo and leaned against him. She said softly: "Are you okay?"
"fine."
Ji Xinghuo turned around and held her hand and said with a smile: "I'm just a little bit emotional. It was an accident that made me appear in this world. If the situation was slightly different, for example, if Xia Qingyu was more responsible, or if Xin Yimo If I can pass the guardianship certificate exam in time, I wonder what I will look like now.”
"You are still you!" Zhao Manying nodded lightly, "The most important thing is that you are the best result now!"
Ji Xinghuo sighed: "Yeah..."
"Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?" Zhao Manying asked again.
"No need." A hint of complexity flashed in Ji Xinghuo's eyes, "I'm afraid it won't be a warm scene."
The next afternoon.
Ji Xinghuo ended his training a few hours early, left the Aether Research Institute alone, and got on a maglev car to the agreed place.
In the car, Ji Xinghuo's electromagnetic induction swept across the destination and locked the target.
The situation was quickly grasped.
There was no expression change on his face.
The maglev bus stopped under a building in Jingwei District. When Ji Xinghuo got off the bus, his face had changed. Without attracting anyone's attention, he walked into the building and took the elevator to the 124th floor. This is a high-end business club.
He entered the club invisibly, came to the door of a luxurious box inside, and opened the door directly.
At the same time as he entered the door, Ji Xinghuo restored his true appearance.
There were four people in the box.
There were two men and two women, a middle-aged couple and their children. They were all well-dressed and looked like they were a wealthy family. But at this moment, their faces were all nervous, and they all stood up when they found someone coming in.
"Xiaoye!"
A woman with an exquisite face shouted excitedly.
Ji Xinghuo looked at her, feeling both familiar and strange at the same time. Familiar because he had seen the video she left in the citizen files a few years ago, but strange because it was the first time in so many years that he had seen the person in front of him.
He looked carefully at Xin Yimo. She was well-maintained in her early 50s, and her appearance was more than ten years younger than her actual age.
Xin Yimo was extremely excited and wanted to hug him.
When Ji Xinghuo heard her heart beating violently, he sighed inwardly, stretched out his right hand, and said calmly: "Ms. Xin, I am Ji Xinghuo."
Xin Yimo stopped.
There was a look of shock on her face, and she noticed Ji Xinghuo's alienation. Then she forced out a smile and held Ji Xinghuo's hand, "Little...Mr. Ji, I'm Xin Yimo. I'm very happy to meet you."
Ji Xinghuo immediately let go and looked at the others.
"Let me introduce you." Xin Yimo regained some of his ability, "This is my husband Qi Zhang."
"Director Qi."
Ji Xinghuo nodded to Qi Zhang.
Qi Zhang was stunned for a moment. This was his position in the company. Normally, only his colleagues and subordinates would call him that. This title let him know that Ji Xinghuo knew something about him. He was immediately flattered and said with a trembling voice, " Hello Mr. Ji!”
At this time, Xin Yimo pulled the two young men in front of him and introduced: "This is Qi Ming and Qi Xin."
Ji Xinghuo has read their information.
Qi Ming is 20 years old and still in college. He is a pampered rich second generation with poor academic performance and has been insisting on exercising to become a different person. Qi Xin is only 17 years old and has inherited his mother's beauty, and his youthful and girlish aura is endearing.
Ever since Ji Xinghuo walked in, the two of them had been staring at Ji Xinghuo intently, their expressions dull as if they were sleepwalking.
"Ji, Ji Ji first you, you..." Qi Ming was excited and incoherent.
Qi Xin's eyes widened.
"Don't you two always regard Mr. Ji as your idol?" Xin Yimo scolded, "Why can't you even talk to me now?" She looked at Ji Xinghuo again, "I'm sorry for making you laugh."
"It doesn't matter."
Ji Xinghuo smiled. Since the portrait was released, being recognized often happened when going out, and he was used to it.
"Director Qi, please go out first. Ms. Xin and I have something to say."
"Okay, okay!"
Disappointment flashed in Qi Zhang's eyes, but he did not dare to disobey Ji Xinghuo's wishes and pulled the two reluctant children out of the box.
After the door closed, the room fell silent.
Ji Xinghuo sat down casually, and Xin Yimo watched his every move, hesitating to speak, and sat opposite him, and finally asked: "On your 22nd birthday, did you receive the message and video I sent you? "
"Got it." Ji Xinghuo replied.
"Then why didn't you contact me?" Xin Yimo had a sad face. "I have regretted my decision all the time these years. I have been preparing to take you back. I finally waited until you were 22 years old, but there was no reply."
There were tears in her eyes.
"You don't know, when I saw your video that day, I immediately recognized you as my Xiaoye!" Xin Yimo lowered his head and wiped his face, "I have never been so happy in my life, finally having a son. information."
"Your appearance is carved from the same mold as Xia Qingyu."
"And your birth year, 2201!"
"I just didn't expect..."
Xin Yimo's expression was both happy and shocked, as if he was recalling what happened that day, "You are actually Ji Xinghuo!"
She looked at Ji Xinghuo and felt unbelievable until now.
The world’s number one Ji Xinghuo!
The famous Ji Xinghuo!
Ji Xinghuo, the most powerful genius in human history and the strongest human being, turned out to be the son he had been looking for for many years!
Even now that he saw Ji Xinghuo himself and saw the shadow of that scumbag in him, Xin Yimo still couldn't believe that that wrinkled baby could become such a big shot!
Xin Yimo was immersed in joy, but it was immediately broken.
"I live a good life in a public family, and I don't want to disturb your life." Ji Xinghuo said calmly.
She heard the implication, "But I am your biological mother after all..."
"No buts."
Ji Xinghuo didn't want to hear this nonsense and interrupted her directly, "Ms. Xin, there is no point in talking about this now."
He turned to the outside and said, "Director Qi, please come in."
Qi Zhang immediately brought the two children in.
Before he could speak, Ji Xinghuo said: "I don't want to see my name associated with 'Wuya Qitian Media Group' in any news or media, and I don't want to see negative news about Ms. Xin. I understand." ?"
Ji Xinghuo's voice was not loud.
But every word was like a thunder exploding in Qi Zhang's ears, making his brain buzz and his whole body tremble.
Qi Zhang looked pale and speechless.
Xin Yimo's expression also changed drastically. It turned out that Ji Xinghuo had already mastered everything and said in shock: "Xiao Ye..."
Ji Xinghuo glanced at her and the two young men and nodded slightly.
Lightning flashed in front of several people's eyes.
Then there was a sonic boom, flying directly out of the window of the building. When they came to their senses, Ji Xinghuo had already disappeared from the horizon.
Xin Yimo looked at the direction in which he was leaving, tears streaming down his face.
