She had to let them confirm that they didn’t recognize the wrong person first. He did not want to make a big mistake, but it was really awkward to watch the confirmation process with her own eyes. It was better to hide outside.
As soon as the curtain was lowered, Xiao Ran and her husband’s eyes turned hot. They felt that it was fortunate that Xiaoxiao was not around. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to see their parents crying.
Gu Chang’an said affirmatively without looking at the jade pendant, “She’s our daughter!” He knew from the first time he saw her that this was his biological daughter!
Xiao Ran’s mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts. For a moment, she thought—hehehe, “Dad” and “Mom”. After so many years, she could finally hear her daughter call them “Dad” and “Mom”.
She became nervous for a moment—wait, would her daughter acknowledge them? Would she blame them for not protecting her well and causing her to wander around all these years? She had not been able to find her lost daughter for more than 10 years. Wasn’t she too useless?
Just as she was gradually falling into the strange circle of scaring herself, the carriage suddenly stopped and an annoying and arrogant voice sounded outside.
“It’s you, brat?”
Xiaoxiao recognized his facial features uncertainly. “Young Master Xu?”
She glanced at the Xunxiang Pavilion behind Young Master Xu, which was not in business mode. The brothel had not opened in the morning, so he must have spent the night there. No wonder people said that one could be flirtatious even if they died under a peony flower. He had been beaten up so badly, but he did not forget to come out to sleep around. She really admired the young lady who served him for being able to do it with this face. She was really professional.
The man surnamed Xu reeked of alcohol. It was obvious that he had drunk a lot yesterday. He was not very clear-headed at the moment, and it was time for him to follow his instincts. In addition, he had been served and addressed as “Young Master” and “Eldest Young Master” the night before. Now, he was filled with confidence and wished he could walk unhindered on the streets of the Imperial Capital.
He stopped Xiaoxiao in front of the carriage and did not let her go. Xiaoxiao was speechless. “What do you mean?”
Xu put his hands on his hips. “Do you know how much I’ve suffered because of you?”
He didn’t see the Shen Family’s people around Xiaoxiao and guessed that they were all in school. His eyes darted around and he thought of a good idea. “Ning Xiaoxiao, right? I suspect that you have something to do with the person who hit me two days ago. Men, take her down!”
A teacup flew out of the carriage with a whoosh and hit him on the head. Xu did not see who attacked, but he could not suppress his anger.
“What are you waiting for? Take her down!”
“If I don’t teach you a lesson today, you won’t know how many eyes Prince Ma has!”
However, more teacups flew out of the carriage and smashed all the Xu Family servants back. Xu was furious. “You still dare to resist? Let me tell you, Ning Xiaoxiao, when I take you in, I’ll beat you up three times a day! I’ll beat you until you beg for mercy!”
Xiaoxiao’s gaze turned cold. “Take?”
Xu said proudly, “My family has already prepared to take you in as a concubine! With your status, it’s already an honor to let you be a concubine!”
Xiaoxiao’s scolding words instantly surged out of her heart, but they were useless because two figures suddenly rushed out of the carriage. One of them was valiant and heroic. She flew up and kicked the person surnamed Xu’s face, causing him to fall to the ground. “If you’re tired of living, just say it!”
If not for the fact that she was afraid of scaring her daughter, she would have immediately shown this brat a set of techniques to cut off his descendants.
Gu Chang’an did not know martial arts. At this moment, he was holding Xiaoxiao’s hand and sizing her up. “Are you injured? Are you frightened?”
Looking at the redness in his eyes, Xiaoxiao felt that she knew why Xiao Ran only threw the cup and did not appear.
She was probably dealing with her tears.
She did not know their identities for the time being, so she was very worried about causing trouble for her parents. “Is the Xu Family very powerful? Why don’t we run?”
Unexpectedly, Gu Chang’an, who looked gentle and good-tempered, snorted in disdain. “Who does the Xu Family think they are?”
Coincidentally, Xu was in so much pain that he sobered up. At first glance, he trembled in fear when he saw Xiao Ran’s face. “General Xiaoxiaoxiaoxiao?”
At first, Xiaoxiao thought that this bastard was calling her name, but she was a little surprised when she heard everything. “General Xiao?”
Gu Chang’an originally wanted to talk about their identity when they got home, but now, he could only nod and say proudly, “That’s right. Your mother’s name is Xiao Ran. She’s a general.”
Xiaoxiao was shocked. “The heroine general is my mother?”
She didn’t know that Xiao Ran almost cried again when she heard this unconscious “Mother”. Gu Chang’an also had mixed feelings.
My daughter has heard of me! Xiao Ran, whose mind was filled with this thought, was overly excited. She knocked Xu out with just a few punches. If Gu Chang’an hadn’t reacted and pulled her away, he would have been crippled.
The servants of the Xu Family were still alive, so Xiao Ran let them take them away. She snorted and pulled Xiaoxiao back to the carriage with Gu Chang’an.
At this moment, they were not far from the General’s Residence, but the two of them still felt like years had passed. They hugged Xiaoxiao tightly the moment they reached home and closed the door.
“Daughter, it’s our fault for making you suffer.”
Xiaoxiao felt a little uncomfortable. “Am I really your daughter? Could there be a mistake?”
Xiao Ran wiped her face with her sleeve boldly. “Is there a small red birthmark on your right shoulder? Isn’t it very round?”
Xiaoxiao nodded. Aiya, it was really so. However, she looked at her “parents” who were about the same age as her in her previous life and was a little embarrassed to call them that.
Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an brought Xiaoxiao to the room specially reserved for her. The snacks and fruits filled the table in the blink of an eye. They wanted to ask Xiaoxiao how she had been living all these years, but they didn’t know where to start.
It was their fault for losing her child, no matter what the cause and effect was, let alone after more than 10 years, they actually let her drift outside without anyone to rely on. The more they thought about it, the more bitter they felt. After holding it in for a long time, they could only say, “We’ve let you down.”
Looking at the neat and clean room, it was not difficult for Xiaoxiao to guess that someone cleaned it every day. There were girls’ clothes, shoes, and socks in the wardrobe in all colors, and they happened to be suitable for 12-year-old girls. There was a row of makeup boxes on the dressing table. They looked heavy and must be filled to the brim.
They should be looking forward to their daughter coming home every day, right?
The original host did not know her background, but the two of them thought about their lost daughter day and night. They were afraid that she would suffer, that they would not be able to find her, and even more afraid that she would no longer be alive…
Looking at the white hair on their temples, Xiaoxiao thought: How torturous it must be for them.
She thought to herself that she should try harder when she heard someone outside the door. “Mistress, His Majesty wants to see you.”
Xiao Ran replied without thinking, “I’m not free.”
Gu Chang’an was still rational and patted her.
Xiao Ran looked impatient. “I’m not free to begin with. It’s not court time now.. Do I have nothing to do to watch him farm?”
