Chapter 818 Not a biological child
The main reason was that when Shen Qiang mentioned a doctor in the village, Wang Yang immediately thought that Old Wang was the doctor in that village.
"It's quite a coincidence. I never expected that the person Shen Qiang had been searching for for more than ten years had already come to my side. To be honest, I was also shocked when I learned the truth."

What kind of person is he?

Wang Yang could tell that Xia was eager to know the details about Shen Qiang.

"Actually, you can find his information by searching online. He is very famous in Haicheng and can be called a leader in the business world. His adopted daughter is named Shen Qing, and now she knows that she is not his biological daughter."

"Is there any connection between Shen Qing and him?"

Wang Yang hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to tell Xia these things, not wanting to tarnish Shen Qiang's image as a father in her heart.

“Shen Qing was originally related to my family; she was the daughter of one of my father’s bodyguards. She was separated from her family during the chase and was later adopted by Shen Qiang.”

Hearing this, Xia closed her eyes in anguish. She understood that her biological father was deeply sinful.

"Now that you've found me, what are you going to do? Are you going to negotiate with him?"

“No, if his daughter were someone else, I might do it. But since it's you, I've changed my mind. I don't want him to find you.”

In fact, Xia had never thought of acknowledging Shen Qiang, especially after getting to know his character, this thought became even stronger.

"Why? I could have been a great bargaining chip."

Wang Yang hesitated slightly: "It's precisely because this person is you, my friend, that I can't do this. Originally, I planned to use Shen Qiang's daughter as a bargaining chip to control Shen Qiang after I found her. But since this person is you, I can't bring myself to do it."

To be honest, Wang Yang would rather this person be a complete stranger than any of his friends. Because if it were someone he knew, he simply couldn't bring himself to do it.

“Boss, you shouldn’t think like that. It’s precisely because it’s me that I can give you more protection. Think about it, if it were someone else, even if you used her to threaten Shen Qiang, what if she was willing to acknowledge him after learning that Shen Qiang was her biological father?”

Xia's words make sense. Precisely because she is Shen Qiang's daughter, she is more likely to stand firmly on Wang Yang's side.

“I am still useful to you. Since I am his daughter, I must still hold some weight in his heart, and perhaps I can use this to keep him in check.”

"I'm afraid it might not work. Even if you were his daughter, his determination to find the Peach Blossom Spring would not waver. It is his lifelong obsession."

Xia smiled helplessly. It seemed that Shen Qiang had indeed been blinded by something.

"So, what are your plans now?"

"Let's delay for now and not tell him the news."

Xia thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "That won't do. You have to use me. If it weren't for you, my adoptive father and I would have been dead long ago. I will always remember this kindness. As you said, we are friends, and I should help you when you are in trouble."

Wang Yang was deeply conflicted. He was torn between two conflicting ideas, unsure whether to reveal Xia's identity to Shen Qiang. If Shen Qiang knew Xia's true identity, they would never have peace again.

Xia's adoptive father entrusted her to Lao Wang back then, hoping that she could live a peaceful life, no longer get involved in these disputes, and not be found by Shen Qiang.

"Your adoptive father did this because he didn't want you to get involved in these grudges and hoped that you could live a peaceful and happy life."

“I understand. But some things can’t be avoided. Even though I’ve fled this far, I still met you and learned the truth. This is my destiny. Since I was born as his daughter, I should bear this responsibility.”

Wang Yang was genuinely surprised that Xia would say such a thing, which showed that she was a person of great loyalty and affection. "Do you want to see Shen Qiang? If so, I can arrange for you to meet, but he won't know about your father-daughter relationship."

Xia shook her head without hesitation: "No need. I have no feelings for him and I don't want to know what kind of person he is. To be honest, from your description, I can imagine that he is definitely not a good person."

In her heart, she had long regarded Old Wang as her biological father. She would rather this secret never be revealed.

"How about this, I won't reveal that you're his daughter for now. I'll tell him when he finally finds his paradise and needs to negotiate."

"After all, I am his weakness and your last resort, which should be used at crucial moments. Boss, you don't need to think that this will hurt me. I don't think so at all."

Xia has always regarded Wang Yang as her savior and has always thought about how to repay him. Now that she finally has the opportunity, she naturally wants to cherish it.

“I understand, and I will respect your wishes. I won’t tell anyone about this, but you need to adjust your mindset and think clearly about how to face him.”

Xia nodded. She didn't care how to face Shen Qiang; she only thought about how to better help Wang Yang achieve his goal.

"So what you're searching for now is also the Peach Blossom Spring?"

"No, it's to find my biological parents. They might be living in Peach Blossom Spring, so I have to find them first."

Now Wang Yang is less anxious. Even if Shen Qiang finds her first, he can use Xia as leverage.

“But my concern is that if he finds my parents first and uses them to blackmail me, and I have you in my hands, I might be able to counter him.”

This was Wang Yang's biggest worry. Therefore, no matter what, they had to find the Peach Blossom Spring first.

"Do you have any clues about Peach Blossom Spring right now?"

"Yes. I think it's very likely in a forest to the northwest. Shen Qiang sent people there, but they gave up because it was dangerous."

Xia Xia also guessed that everything they were doing was bound to be dangerous, and they might lose their lives at any moment. But these were things they had to do.

"If you need my help, I will do my best. Boss, please don't exclude me, and don't think that this is to protect me."

Wang Yang knew Xia was a responsible person and that he couldn't truly exclude her. Now that she knew her true identity, she could no longer remain uninvolved.

"Don't worry, I'll ask if I need your help. Now you just need to do one thing: don't reveal your real identity to anyone, including Musk."

This is the point Wang Yang most wanted to emphasize. First, Musk can't keep secrets; his thoughts are immediately obvious. Second, he has feelings for Xia.

This is the most fatal point. If he knew that Xia was Shen Qiang's daughter, Wang Yang couldn't imagine what shocking things he would do.

"Don't worry about that. I know Musk's personality better than you do. If he knew, he'd probably cause a huge uproar. I'll keep it from him."

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now. Remember my words, just pretend none of this ever happened."
