C5 A Hundred Dollars on the Face

The car soon drove out of the airport. After a while, Sheng Yeting looked in front of him and said in an indifferent manner: "You're still not letting go."

Only then did Xia Xingcheng come back to her senses. She immediately let go of the hand she was holding and fiddled with the hair beside her ear awkwardly. "Thank you for just now."

Xiaobao, who was sitting at the side, also shouted excitedly, "Thank you, dad!"

"Don't shout." Xia Xingcheng immediately reached out her hand to cover the child's mouth. She placed her index finger on her lips to indicate for him to be silent. "You can't randomly call someone else 'father'."

"Why?" Xiaobao blinked and looked at her in confusion. "It was father who helped us just now, we were not bullied by those bad guys …"

Xia Xingcheng was stunned by his words. She didn't know why Xiaobao would treat this man as his father, nor did she know how to explain Sheng Yeting's actions.

She coughed lightly, looked at him apologetically, then lowered her head and said to Xiaobao in a soft voice, "This uncle, he is not your dad, he just saw us being bullied by bad people, that's why he stepped out to help us."

She reached out her hand and gently tapped the child's nose as she laughed, "So, you can't shout randomly anymore. Do you understand?"

Sheng Yeting stared out of the window with a cold expression. His voice turned cold as he answered, "I'm a child who sympathizes with you. Now, you can get off the car."

She was originally grateful towards the man for saving her, but she didn't expect him to be so cold and detached when he turned around, treating her like dust.

"Stop the car."

She didn't want to say anything more, so she signaled the driver to stop with an expressionless face.

Xia Xingcheng took off her luggage, took out 100 yuan from her wallet and threw it on the car seat. "Thank you for your good intentions, this is the taxi fare, we will never meet again."

After saying so, she held Xiaobao's hand and pulled up the suitcase. Then she turned around and strode to the edge of the platform. She prepared to take a taxi again, not giving the man any time to react.

Sheng Yeting looked at the one hundred yuan that was thrown on the car seat. Since when was he so easily treated by a woman?

"..."

Xia Xingcheng didn't go straight home after getting off Sheng Yeting's car. Instead, she took a taxi to her grandma's house.

After all these years, grandma's courtyard was still the same as it had been in the past. It was just that grandma had aged quite a bit.

She quickly stepped forward to hug the old man. Suddenly, her heart was touched by a warm feeling, and her eyes became moist. "Grandmother, I missed you so much …"

"Xingcheng, my good granddaughter …" The old lady gently patted her back, and with a gentle yet calm laugh, she said, "I wonder how much suffering you've endured outside."

She was naturally overjoyed to see her precious granddaughter, let alone the cute and cute Xiaobao. She even doted on him, wishing that she could hold him in her heart.

After experiencing so many things, the old lady naturally knew what to ask and what not to ask. Since her granddaughter didn't seem to want to bring it up, she didn't ask the child for the reason.

Xia Xingcheng rested at her grandma's home for the night. The next morning, she brought Xiaobao to go out for a stroll.

She thought of the places she went to when she was young and couldn't help feeling a little happy in her heart. She just didn't expect that she would run into Xu Hao and Xia Xingyan who came to find her just as she walked to the entrance of the residential complex.

She immediately put away the smile on her face and stared coldly at the two people in front of her. "I don't think there's anything else to say. Please don't disturb my life again."

Xia Xingyan did not come here on her own initiative. She deeply hated Xia Xingcheng. She didn't want to meet her, so why would she take the initiative to look for her?

"Do you think I want to come?" She curled her lips and said, "It's Daddy who wants to see you. He wants you to go home."

Hearing her father's words, Xia Xingcheng suddenly became silent. She didn't really want to have anything to do with that family anymore, but she still hadn't made their relationship clear, and she still needed to talk to him face to face.

She stood there quietly for a long time before she took Xiaobao and got into their car.

Along the way, everyone had their own thoughts, so no one said a word.

The car soon arrived at the villa area. Looking through the window, the scenery in the yard was not much different from when she left.

However, the situation now was different. She could no longer face this family with her calm demeanor from before.

"Finally back."

Just as she stepped into the house with Xiaobao, her stepmother Song Qiong hurriedly came over. She put on a warm and gentle posture and said, "You must have worked hard on the way here. Did you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Did you get hungry? Auntie prepared some food for you."

Xia Xingcheng looked at her pretentious expression and felt extremely disgusted. She had obviously ignored her for the past five years and had never cared about her life, yet now she was showing such enthusiasm.

"I know you don't like me." She gave her an unappreciative look. "You don't have to bother to look like that."

"How did you talk to your mother!"

Uncle Xia's sullen voice quickly came from the living room. He stood up and walked out. Looking at the child in Xia Xingcheng's hand, he frowned. "I sent you out of the country to reflect on yourself, but you!" And you actually brought a bastard back! "

His entire body was trembling with anger, and his finger trembled as he pointed at Xiaobao who was behind her: "Let me tell you, I will not admit that he is the blood of our Xia Family!"
