After receiving the certificate, she was pinched and doted on by the wealthy heir.

"That turmoil was caused by two big families, and the Xia family was just implicated." Xia Mingcheng lowered his eyelids, "I took your mother to leave Sichuan City incognito, and didn't come back until you were born. At that time The Xia family has changed its owner, and your Aunt Lian is also disheartened and gradually stopped taking charge. Only then did your mother and I live a peaceful life."

"Actually, my surname is not Xia, but Wen."

Xia Taozhi was stunned.

Dad's name is not Xia Mingcheng, but Wen Mingcheng.

My mother took her father’s surname, took part of her original name, and changed her name to Wen Xin.

It turned out to be the case.

Her mother is Xia Rui!

Aunt Lian is her real aunt by blood!

Xia Taozhi's lips trembled, and she couldn't calm down for a while: "Dad, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Your mother meant never to return to the Xia family. She just wanted our family to be together in peace. Unfortunately... I couldn't make her happy for a few days, and she passed away. It's my fault."

Xia Mingcheng recalled the past with bitterness.

"Taotao, if you want to blame, blame dad."

She calmed down, thought about it, and smiled: "Dad, why should I blame you? The decision you and your mother made was right anyway. You said you didn't give your mother happiness, but in my opinion, my mother is very Happily, she would rather give up her original identity as a rich daughter to be with you, which shows that this is her most certain choice."

Xia Mingcheng shook his head: "You don't understand. The Xia family was in a complicated environment at that time. Now Mr. Xia..."

He hesitated to speak and could not continue.

Han Xiao took over the conversation from the side: "The current Mr. Xia is not the real father of Aunt Lian and mother at all, is he?"

"how do you know?!"

Xia Mingcheng was really shocked now.

"The Xia family has been friends with the Han family for generations. I know much more about the Xia family than you think. Mr. Xia's disguise is very successful, but his granddaughter is not." Han Xiao raised the corner of his mouth, "Xia Qianqian, she is nothing like the Xia family, both in appearance and ability."

"And Aunt Lian's attitude towards Mr. Xia was so weird. That time Taotao was hurt, Aunt Lian personally went to the Xia family's old house, and then the news came out that Xia Qianqian was severely punished. You know, Xia Qianqian is the apple of Mr. Xia's eye. As a junior, Aunt Lian can actually suppress Mr. Xia and let Xia Qianqian be punished. This is very doubtful in itself. "

Han Xiao took a deep breath, "So this is not a secret to me."

Xia Taozhi's eyes widened: "Why didn't you tell me?"

"This is the Xia family's own secret. It won't be good for you if you know too much." The man gently stroked the hair beside her ear.

Xia Mingcheng nodded: "Yes. What Ah Xiao said makes sense."

Han Xiao asked again: "Dad, you just said that the turmoil caused by the two aristocratic families was the Han family and the Gui family?"

Xia Mingcheng did not hesitate this time and admitted bluntly: "Yes."

He looked at Han Xiao with a hint of bitterness in the corner of his mouth, "You all know about the conflict between the Han family and the Gui family more than ten years ago, but you don't know that your family and the Gui family had an incompatible relationship even earlier. They faced tit-for-tat again and again. By taking advantage of each other again and again, it has long been impossible to shake hands and make peace."

"Your old man is a figure. He seized the opportunity more than ten years ago and gave the Gui family a hard blow. This forced them to leave Sichuan City and gave you ample room for development. Otherwise, Ah Xiao... even if You have extraordinary abilities, and it would have been difficult for you to reach where you are today when the outside world was not so peaceful."

"Your grandfather has actually settled the disputes in the outside world for you a long time ago, just to allow you to better display your talents. This is also true. You have lived up to his expectations."

Han Xiao's eyes tightened.

He didn't expect to hear these words from his father-in-law.

Mr. Han, his biological grandfather...

In fact, Han Xiao didn't get along with this grandfather for long. Not long after he returned to the Han family, his grandfather passed away.

He thought grandpa didn't like him, otherwise why would he leave so many rules to restrict him.

Now hearing another different answer, Han Xiao was a little confused.

Xia Mingcheng chuckled: "He just hopes that you can go further and develop better than him. If he didn't value you so much, he wouldn't leave the entire Han family in your hands. This trust far exceeds his Don’t you understand the trust in his son, your father?”

Han Xiao tightened his palms and remained silent.

Xia Mingcheng looked at his daughter: "Taotao, how do you know your life experience?"

Xia Taozhi said Tang Yongshu's name and recounted what happened at the international wedding dress auction today. She felt uneasy: "I didn't expect that my mother and Mr. Tang have such a connection."

"Yes."

Xia Mingcheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Your mother is the most outstanding and outstanding. As long as she is in the crowd, no one can take away her grace. She is a super first-class artist, one of the most outstanding artists in the world at a young age." A well-known painter in the world, she is a designer sought after by many brands. She is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is a benchmark among the ladies of Sichuan City, and no one has been able to break her record so far. "

As he spoke, he turned back to his room and took out a photo album.

"Your mother asked me to throw it away, but I really couldn't bear it."

He opened the photo album and looked at it with his daughter and son-in-law.

A young woman with delicate features and a bright smile in an old photo album refreshed Xia Taozhi's memory.

This is mom!

"This is a photo of her participating in an international piano performance. She was the chief pianist. Haha, the stars in Vienna lit up for her that day."

"This was the opening ceremony of the Paris Art Festival. She became the only distinguished guest from China invited to perform a violin concerto."

"Look at this...this is what she looks like when she is creating. Doesn't it look like you?"

"And this one, haha, she was designing a wedding dress at the time. Yes, it's the one you put up for auction today."

After going through the photos one by one, Xia Taozhi found that her mother had more smiles on her face, her eyes became gentler and deeper, and her father and herself began to appear around her mother in the photos.

Xia Taozhi was just born that year, and they left a precious photo together.

Seeing this, Xia Taozhi couldn't help but her eyes turned slightly red.

"Your mother really loves you... Just to protect you, we made an agreement that no one will tell you about your life experience. She has abandoned her identity as Xia Rui and devoted herself to becoming Wen Xin, your mother and my wife. …”

Xia Mingcheng's voice was deep, "But God is not as good as God, but you still know all this. This is probably...fate."

Xia Taozhi closed her eyes, turned around and hugged her father tightly: "Dad..."
