Chapter 183: 176: Changling’s origin, Wen Yuan’s biological daughter is (first watch)
Old Lady Zhao lost her husband early on and managed to raise two sons by selling tofu. She had twins; the elder, Qin Qi, was exceptional, while the younger, Qin Ke, was dull and incompetent.
Qin Qi never married in his life.
Qin Ke married twice. His first wife didn’t bear children after two years, and Old Lady Zhao, uneducated and having lived in the mountains most of her life, was lacking in knowledge and full of feudal superstitions. Thinking of her daughter-in-law as a hen that couldn’t lay eggs, she had someone check their compatibility and adopted a child to secure her lineage.
This child was He Dongzhou, who was originally surnamed Zhou. After coming to the Qin Family, they changed his surname to Qin.
In the third year after He Dongzhou arrived at the Qin family’s house, Qin Ke’s first wife finally became pregnant and gave birth to a boy. Now that the Qin Family had their own child, they looked down upon the adopted one, so He Dongzhou was sent away. His original parents didn’t want him, and he was sent to another family, surnamed He, and his surname changed again.
Unfortunately, the Qin Family’s only genuine descendant didn’t grow up; the child died at a little over two years. Old Lady Zhao blamed her daughter-in-law for having a hard fate and causing her son’s death, and forced Qin Ke to divorce her and take a second wife. After some time in the new marriage, there was still no reaction from the new wife’s belly either.
He Dongzhou was brought back to the family, this time keeping his surname as He. Old Lady Zhao was not satisfied, feeling that the child had grown disobedient and wild after living elsewhere, but for the time being, there was no better alternative in terms of birth charts compatibility.
Qin Ke’s second wife miscarried once, damaging her health. It took several years before she bore a daughter named Qin Nai. Old Lady Zhao had wanted a grandson, but what can one do if it’s not in their fate?
As for Qin Qi, he was truly something to be proud of. He made his way from the remote Dayan Mountain to a prestigious university under a special program, received a full scholarship, and even before graduating from his master’s program, he joined his tutor in starting a business. Now, he is one of the founding partners of Huaqi Technology and serves as the COO of the company.
Qin Qi didn’t want Old Lady Zhao to hear anything unpleasant, so he purposely pulled her aside into a room to speak privately.

Old Lady Zhao’s full name was Zhao Junxia. She wore two solid gold bracelets that obviously weren’t light, draped herself in a heavy coat, and adorned herself with pearls. She certainly enjoyed the luxuries. After Qin Qi’s success in his career, he had brought her to the capital, but before that, Zhao had never left her small town and had sold tofu for half her life; her voice was still as loud and clear as ever.
“When did you get a woman outside? How come I didn’t know about it?”
Old Lady Zhao was very satisfied with her elder son in other regards, but she was very discontented with his choice to remain unmarried, and now he had even brought home an illegitimate daughter. To Old Lady Zhao, this was a matter of great shame.
“These are all things of the past.”
Old Lady Zhao was a villager. She faced many hardships raising children as a young widow and developed a strong and domineering disposition, “Where is that woman?”
Qin Qi said, “She has passed away.”
Old Lady Zhao frowned deeply, “Then who can prove that the child she bore is definitely your daughter? What if she’s the offspring of some other man?” Who knows from where this vixen came, seducing her son and leaving behind a child.
“I had a DNA test done.” Qin Qi wouldn’t have achieved his position today if he wasn’t smart; he certainly wouldn’t casually recognize any child as his own.
“Why did it have to be a girl?” If it were a grandson, it would have been so much better, Old Lady Zhao disdainfully said, her face etched with meanness, “And her ears aren’t good either.” No one from their Old Qin Family had ever had a disability; it was utterly humiliating.
“I want Changling to live at home and introduce her to everyone when you celebrate your birthday,” Qin Qi said.
Qin Qi’s face almost resembled Qin Ke’s, but he lacked a mole on his cheekbone, wore glasses, and had the demeanor of a scholar, unlike Qin Ke’s impulsive and impatient nature. Having immersed himself in the world of business for many years, Qin Qi was well-versed in the art of social interaction, treating people gently and taking care of things considerately.
“What’s there to introduce? It’s not something to be proud of,” Old Lady Zhao scolded, “She is an illegitimate child and even deaf, nothing to be proud of. Mentioning it would be a disgrace to you.”
Qin Qi usually indulged his mother and rarely set his face in a frown: “Mom, please don’t talk about Changling like that.”
Seeing her son favoring an outsider, Old Lady Zhao immediately started wiping tears and creating a scene, “Did I say anything wrong? Now that you have a daughter, you can even do without me, your old mother. I had to scrimp and save just to send you out of Dayan Mountain.”
Qin Qi felt a headache coming and hastily said, “I didn’t mean that.”
“I don’t care, I don’t agree with her living here.”
Knowing well his mother’s temper, Qin Qi had already thought of a solution: “How about this, I’ll buy her a place to stay nearby.”
Upon hearing that it would cost money, Old Lady Zhao immediately objected, “Have you gone mad? Do you know how expensive houses are these days? The nearby areas are all villas; think about how much it will cost. Even if you’ve made some money, you can’t squander it like this.”
When Qin Qi re-proposed the idea of living in the family home, Old Lady Zhao became less opposed to it.
Wen Changling was sitting in the living room while the nanny stealthily peeked at her several times from the kitchen.
Suddenly, a paper airplane was tossed at Wen Changling’s feet, and a girl dressed like a doll ran over, about seven or eight years old, clutching a toy and glaring at Wen Changling.
“Are you the cheap sister my uncle brought back?”
The girl was Qin Ke’s daughter, Qin Nai.
Qin Nai was the only granddaughter of Old Lady Zhao, while He Dongzhou was just a child to secure the lineage. Old Lady Zhao doted on her granddaughter excessively, spoiling the little girl into being bossy and belligerent towards Wen Changling. “My grandma said you came to steal our things.” She threw the doll at Wen Changling, “Bad woman.”
Qin Nai made a face and ran off.
Wen Changling picked up the toy and put it on the sofa.
Xie Shang’s car pulled up outside the gates of West Mountain Capital. He hadn’t gotten out, in a rush when he left, not even wearing his overcoat; just a black turtleneck that, on a pale person, accentuated a cool demeanor. He had been reviewing case files and still wore his glasses, which he didn’t wear often, giving him a strangely austere and lawyerly vibe mixed with a hint of rakish charm.
He Dongzhou sat in the passenger seat: “There’s a problem with the DNA test results.”
Xie Shang knew that already.
Yan Cong’s uncle had connections in this field and could help Wen Changling.
“How do you know there’s a problem?”
Leaning casually against the car door, He Dongzhou had a languid posture that exuded a relaxed air, “I know all about Qin Qi’s affairs. He did have a daughter, born to Wen Yuan, but Wen Yuan threw the child away. The very next day, she adopted Wen Changling and Wen Zhaoyang.”
