Chapter 859 -859: The Truth from That Year: She is an Illegitimate Daughter (The Origin of Her Name)
“Why should I help?” Su Hongxing asked indifferently, “Is not what happened to Cao Shiyu her just deserts? With all the evil deeds she committed, this outcome is her own making.”
Since learning that Guan Ya was involved in framing Liu Qingyin, she had lost all fondness for Guan Ya. She couldn’t believe that a seemingly gentle and kind noblewoman could be so vicious.
Was Cao Shiyu’s ruthless behavior mostly inherited from Guan Ya?
“Indeed, Shiyu has made many mistakes and she has been punished. Do you really want to see her go insane for the rest of her life?” Guan Ya held back her anger.
If it was not because she needed something from Su Hongxing, she would never lower herself like this.
“I think it’s quite good for her to remain this way in her next life too. That way, she won’t harm others anymore, and that would truly be meritorious,” Su Hongxing said as she stood up, “I cannot help you, nor do I wish to. Farewell!”
“Do you know why Shiyu collapsed?” Guan Ya suddenly stood up and shouted towards Su Hongxing’s retreating figure.
Su Hongxing paused in her steps, turning back to face Guan Ya, “Don’t tell me it has something to do with me. I didn’t make her harm others, nor did I make her become the homewrecker of someone else’s family!”
“Cao Zhen wants to divorce me, and we had a big argument and finally confronted each other, deliberately hitting where it hurt most. I brought up Jiang Chengyun, and also mentioned you, his illegitimate daughter…”
Seeing Su Hongxing’s composed expression start to crack, Guan Ya continued, “Cao Zhen didn’t tell you, did he? You are his daughter, his own flesh and blood. Back then, Cao Zhen married me to climb the social ladder, all the while harboring feelings for Jiang Chengyun, who was already married by then. Meiyu and I were sisters-in-law, and she shared many things with me. She told me Jiang Chengyun still yearned for Cao Zhen even after marrying Zhou Peng. Zhou Peng was distressed by this, which is when Meiyu seized her chance. Zhou Peng had an affair, and when Jiang Chengyun found out, she didn’t lose her temper but used the same method to retaliate against Zhou Peng. That was when Jiang Chengyun and Cao Zhen got back together.”
Su Hongxing’s face turned pale.
No wonder Cao Zhen suddenly wanted to acknowledge her as his adopted daughter. She had always wondered why, but as it turned out, she was really Cao Zhen’s biological daughter. She was just an illegitimate child and could never be publicly acknowledged, so she had to be acknowledged as his adopted daughter.
Could there be anything more ridiculous in the world?
The Zhou Peng she had hated for so many years was not her biological father after all, and the adoptive father she had been grateful to was actually her biological dad.
“The doom of Zhou Peng and Jiang Chengyun’s marriage was inevitable; there was no question of who was to blame. One was due to not loving enough, the other due to not loving at all. And you, you were just an extra. Do you understand now why Jiang Chengyun didn’t take you with her when she remarried? It’s because she hated you more than she loved you. Also, have you ever wondered why your name is Hongxing?” 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
Hongxing, because it results from crossing the line, was the name Jiang Chengyun gave to Su Hongxing, a mark of disgrace, an indelible stain on Jiang Chengyun’s life.
The implication was very clear.
At this point, Guan Ya felt a bit of sympathy for Su Hongxing.
A child who was destined to be abandoned by everyone from the moment she came into this world, yet she had grown up, and grown up well.
In this regard, Cao Shiyu truly was not comparable to Su Hongxing.
Even if the whole world didn’t love Su Hongxing, she loved herself, and she took very good care of herself.
