1619 The Hot Socialite In The Capital

Qiao Xi hurriedly asked, “But why did Mom grow up by your side?”

Yin Lianxin lowered her eyes. “Lianyi married into the Xia family and gave birth to four children in a row. However, when she was pregnant with Yunqiu, her husband had another woman outside. In a fit of anger, she had difficulty giving birth and almost died on the operating table. Hence, when she saw Yunqiu, she was filled with resentment and wanted to abandon her.”

Qiao Xi was dumbstruck. She blamed her husband’s affair and her difficult birth on the child?

“She said that Yunqiu was a jinx and a demon sent by the heavens to punish her. Coupled with her depression after giving birth, she hated Yunqiu even more. I couldn’t bear to see Yunqiu suffer by her side, so I brought Yunqiu over and announced to the public that she was my daughter. I look exactly the same as Lianyi, and Yunqiu looked similar to me, so no one doubted Yunqiu’s identity.”

Qiao Xi’s expression was serious as she asked in confusion, “But Mom is a child of the Xia family, after all. Didn’t my great-grandparents object after knowing that Yin Lianyi disliked my mother?”

Yin Lianxin shook her head. “Yunqiu was just a child. It was very simple for Yin Lianyi to let her die accidentally. In a noble family like the Xia family in the capital, no one cares about the life and death of a child. Even if my mother brought Yunqiu with her, it would’ve been difficult to protect her life. Later on, when I suggested taking Yunqiu away, Yin Lianxin didn’t object, but she had a condition. She wanted the Yin family to leave the capital forever so that Yunqiu could never appear in front of her!”

With that, Yin Lianxin snorted. “It’s very strange, right? Why is there such a heartless mother in the world? Yunqiu was clearly so obedient, but she was so hated by her biological mother!”

Yin Lianxin pondered for a moment. “When Yunqiu was about 20 years old, your great-grandparents were seriously ill. The two of them wanted to see Yunqiu, so Yin Lianyi brought her back. However, in Yin Lianyi’s eyes, Yunqiu was still a jinx. She hated Yunqiu. Meanwhile, the other daughter of the Xia family, Xia Zishan, thought that Yunqiu wanted to occupy her identity and made things difficult for her. Those days were extremely difficult for Yunqiu.

“Everyone in the capital’s high society knew that the Xia family didn’t treat Yunqiu well, but no one would stand up for her. They just criticized her behind her back.

“Xi Xi, your mother was the same as you. She wouldn’t suffer for no reason. Even when Xia Zishan played tricks, your mother could still resolve them. Yunqiu even participated in all kinds of competitions in the capital and became a popular socialite in the capital. She was chased after by everyone, so Xia Zishan hated her even more.

“After Yunqiu’s grandparents passed away, the Xia family planned to chase her out of the house. It was at this time that she met your biological father.”

“Who exactly is my biological father?” Qiao Xi asked.

Yin Lianxin looked at her helplessly. “Xi Xi, I can’t tell you your father’s identity for the time being. Because of the Kang family, the capital has already noticed your existence. Xia Zishan and Yin Lianyi won’t let you off.

“Your father is the man Xia Zishan has admired for many years. Back then, she wanted to marry your father, but your father didn’t like her at all and only liked your mother. After that, Xia Zishan was unwilling to give up. After all, she looked similar to Yunqiu. She even pretended to be Yunqiu to get close to your father, but your father saw through her.

“Xia Zishan is vicious and has done many evil things. She got someone to assassinate Yunqiu, but your father sent her to prison. After that, there was no news of her. Even Yin Lianyi didn’t discover Xia Zishan’s whereabouts.

“It was Xia Zishan’s jealousy that brought this upon herself. However, Yin Lianyi thinks that Yunqiu ruined Xia Zishan’s life. If Yunqiu hadn’t appeared, your father would have fallen in love with Xia Zishan, married her, and had children with her. Hence, Yin Lianyi hates Yunqiu even more.

“During that period of time, although Yunqiu’s situation in the capital was awkward, she was willing to endure it with your father protecting her. Moreover, everyone in your father’s family liked her very much. Your grandparents even held a grand wedding for them.”

At this point, Yin Lianxin’s tone was filled with happiness.

Qiao Xi felt that her parents should be living a happy life if things had come to that point. Xia Zishan was in jail, and her mother had the protection of a powerful family. Yin Lianyi was utterly unable to attack her mother, so why did her mother leave the capital in the end? Why did the name Xia Yunqiu become taboo in the capital?

“But 23 years ago, something big happened.” Yin Lianxin’s voice suddenly turned cold.
