After several years of marriage, she gave birth to a son and a daughter, securing her position as the wife of the Qi Family, and began to participate in the family’s dia and entertainnt company.
Several years ago, the Qi Family’s company was successfully listed on the stock market.
This year, the stock price has multiplied several tis, with a total market value close to ten billion.
To outsiders, Xin Yimo and her husband seem to have successful careers, with both a son and a daughter, and a happy family life, truly considered successful people, admired by over 99% of the general public.
However, beneath the glamorous exterior, Xin Yimo faces difficulties and pains she cannot share with others.
From more than a decade ago, the couple began to have emotional discord and have been living apart for a long ti.
The reason is that Xin Yimo’s husband thinks she ddles too much in the company. The true decision-maker of the Qi Family is her father-in-law, and her husband is not the only son; there are three other children who all serve as senior executives in the company and are very dissatisfied with Xin Yimo.
Seeing this, Ji Xinghuo lost interest.
This kind of power struggle within a family business held no novelty for him, and he simply had no desire to know more.
The docunt also ntioned that Xin Yimo’s husband was suspected of infidelity, keeping multiple mistresses outside.
Attached were the profiles of those won.
Ji Xinghuo glanced briefly, muttering to himself: "Quite a diverse taste..."
He closed the docunt.
"Want to see her?" Ye Dongyun asked, "Mrs. Xin ca to Chang’an last month and hasn’t gone back since."
"Just this once." Ji Xinghuo didn’t hesitate for long and replied: "Sis, arrange a place, then contact her. Let’s set the ti for tomorrow afternoon, I’ll go after finishing my cultivation."
He didn’t want to get involved in Xin Yimo’s matters to give her any false hope.
eting once was to repay his birth debt.
"Alright, I’ll handle it right away."
Ye Dongyun hung up the phone, and a few minutes later, she sent a ssage saying she had arranged everything and included the eting address.
Ji Xinghuo put down the phone and stared out the window at the night view, lost in thought.
Zhao Manying ca out in her pajamas; she had heard everything from next door and sat down next to Ji Xinghuo, leaning against him, softly asking, "Are you okay?"
"I’m fine."
Ji Xinghuo turned back, holding her hand, and smiled, "Just feeling a bit emotional, their accidental encounter back then brought into this world. If things were slightly different, if Xia Qingyu had been more responsible or if Xin Yimo had passed the guardianship exam in ti, who knows what I would have been like now?"
"You are still you!" Zhao Manying nodded lightly, "The most important thing is that the current you is the best outco!"
Ji Xinghuo sighed: "Yeah..."
"Do I need to accompany you tomorrow?" Zhao Manying asked again.
"No need." Ji Xinghuo’s eyes flashed with so complexity, "It probably won’t be a warm scene."
Afternoon of the next day.
Ji Xinghuo finished his cultivation several hours early and left the Ether Research Institute alone, taking a Magnetic Levitation Car to the agreed location.
On the car, Ji Xinghuo’s electromagnetic induction scanned the target location and locked in on it.
Soon, he grasped the situation.
His facial expression did not change at all.
The Magnetic Levitation Car stopped at the base of a tall building in Jingwei District, and when Ji Xinghuo got out, he had already changed his appearance, attracting no attention from anyone, as he walked into the building and took the elevator to the 124th floor, where there was a high-end business club.
He went invisible as he entered the club, heading straight to a luxurious private room, opening the door directly.
As he stepped in, Ji Xinghuo revealed his true appearance.
There were four people in the room.
Two n and two won, a middle-aged couple with their children, all dressed ticulously, indicating a wealthy family. However, at this mont, their faces looked tense, and they stood up when they noticed soone entering.
"Xiao Ye!"
A refined-looking woman called out excitedly.
Ji Xinghuo looked at her, feeling both familiar and strange; familiar because he had seen her video in the citizen archives a few years ago, strange because this was the first ti he was seeing her in person in all these years.
He scrutinized Xin Yimo closely; in her early fifties, she was well-maintained, looking ten years younger than her actual age.
Xin Yimo was overwhelmingly excited, ready to embrace him.
Ji Xinghuo heard her heart beating furiously and sighed inwardly, extending his right hand, calmly saying: "Mrs. Xin, I am Ji Xinghuo."
Xin Yimo froze in her steps.
Her face showed shock, sensing Ji Xinghuo’s distance, and she managed to force out a faint smile, shaking Ji Xinghuo’s hand, "Xiao... Mr. Ji, I am Xin Yimo, very pleased to et you."
Ji Xinghuo imdiately let go, looking at the others.
"Let introduce you." Xin Yimo regained so of her composure, "This is my husband, Qi Zhang."
"Director Qi."
Ji Xinghuo nodded at Qi Zhang.
Qi Zhang was taken aback for a mont; this was his position in the company, usually only colleagues and subordinates called him this. Just by this address, he realized Ji Xinghuo knew about him and was instantly overwheld, his voice trembling with excitent, "Hello, Mr. Ji!"
At this mont, Xin Yimo pulled two young people to the front and introduced, "This is Qi Ming and Qi Xin."
Ji Xinghuo had read their files.
Qi Ming was 20 years old, still in university, a pampered second-generation rich kid with poor academic performance, always insisting on training to beco a Mutant; Qi Xin was only 17, inherited her mother’s beauty, and her youthful charm was endearing.
Ever since Ji Xinghuo entered, the two had not taken their eyes off him, their expressions vacant as if sleepwalking.
"Ji, Ji Ji, you..." Qi Ming stuttered in excitent.
Qi Xin’s eyes were wide open.
"Haven’t you two always idolized Mr. Ji?" Xin Yimo chided, "Why can’t you even speak properly now?" She looked at Ji Xinghuo, "Sorry to embarrass you."
"No problem."
Ji Xinghuo smiled. Ever since his image went public, being recognized when going out had beco a common occurrence, and he was used to it.
"Director Qi, could you please leave for now? I have sothing to discuss with Ms. Xin."
"All right, all right!"
Qi Zhang’s eyes flashed with disappointnt, but he didn’t dare defy Ji Xinghuo’s wishes, and he led the two reluctant children out of the private room.
Once the door was shut, the room fell silent.
Ji Xinghuo sat down casually. Xin Yimo, observing his every move and hesitating to speak, eventually sat across from him and finally asked, "Did you receive my ssage and video on your 22nd birthday?"
"I did." Ji Xinghuo replied.
"Then why didn’t you contact ?" Xin Yimo’s face showed sorrow, "All these years I’ve been regretting my decision, always preparing to bring you back. I finally waited until you were 22, but there was no response."
Tears welled up in her eyes.
"You don’t know, when I saw your video, I recognized you as my little Ye at first glance!" Xin Yimo lowered her head, wiping her face, "There hasn’t been a happier mont in my life, finally having news of my son."
"Your appearance is carved from the sa mold as Xia Qingyu."
"And your birth year, 2201!"
"I just didn’t expect..."
Xin Yimo’s expression was both joyful and shocked, as if recalling that day’s events, "You turned out to be Ji Xinghuo!"
She looked at Ji Xinghuo, still finding it hard to believe.
The world-renowned Ji Xinghuo!
The mighty Ji Xinghuo!
The strongest genius and the mightiest human in history, Ji Xinghuo, was actually her long-lost son!
Even now, seeing Ji Xinghuo in person, spotting the shadow of that despicable man in him, Xin Yimo still found it hard to believe that the wrinkled baby from back then had beco such a significant figure!
Xin Yimo was imrsed in her joy, but it was imdiately shattered.
"I had a good life in the public family, and I don’t wish to disturb yours." Ji Xinghuo said calmly.
She heard the underlying refusal, "But I am your birth mother after all..."
"There’s no ’but.’"
Ji Xinghuo didn’t want to hear any more nonsense, interrupting her directly, "Ms. Xin, discussing this now is aningless."
He turned his head and called out, "Director Qi, please co in."
Qi Zhang imdiately entered with the two children.
Before he could speak, Ji Xinghuo said, "I don’t want to see my na associated with ’Wuya Qitian dia Group’ in any news or dia, nor do I want to see negative news about Ms. Xin. Understood?"
Ji Xinghuo’s voice wasn’t loud.
But each word was like a clap of thunder in Qi Zhang’s ears, leaving him with a buzzing head and trembling all over.
Qi Zhang’s face went pale, unable to speak.
Xin Yimo’s expression also changed drastically. It turned out Ji Xinghuo already knew everything, and she exclaid, "Little Ye..."
Ji Xinghuo’s gaze swept over her and the two young people, nodding slightly.
Sparks flashed before their eyes.
Then ca a sound explosion as he flew straight out of the building window. By the ti they regained their senses, Ji Xinghuo had already disappeared into the sky.
Xin Yimo watched the direction he had vanished, tears streaming down uncontrollably.
