Anchor with goods, the price of F2 is very reasonable, right?

Chapter 819 He hesitates to speak
Xia nodded. When Wang Yang reached the bottom of the stairs, Old Wang suddenly chased after him and called out to him.

"Wang Yang, there are some things I'd like to talk to you about."

Just now in the room, Wang Yang noticed that Lao Wang seemed to want to say something but didn't say it outright in front of Xia.

"Let's talk in the car. We can't go to the store openly now, I'm worried about Shen Qiang's men spying on me."

After getting on the bus, Old Wang pondered for a moment before speaking: "Actually, Xia had a very hard childhood. Her adoptive father, who is my brother, came from a poor family and often had to hide. To be honest, I didn't know why at first, but now I understand."

It turned out that Shen Qiang had been searching for them, which was why they had been hiding for so long.

"I don't quite understand. Since that adoptive father treats Xia very well, why doesn't he just hand her over to Shen Qiang?"

“He told me this before. He said that Xia’s biological parents were not good people and he did not want Xia to be led astray by them. He believes that children are inherently good and the key lies in their environment.”

Wang Yang wholeheartedly agreed. If this person were still alive, he would truly like to meet him. Perhaps he and his father were also good friends back then.

“At the time, I thought he was absolutely right. He was an exceptional person, both as a doctor and as an ordinary person, unlike most people in the world. That’s why I admired him so much.”

Otherwise, Old Wang would never have agreed to that request back then. At that time, he was not yet married, and raising the little girl alone was indeed difficult, but out of consideration for his friend's request, he still agreed.

"After he told me all this back then, I realized that he had been hiding from Xia's biological parents all along. To be honest, I don't even know if he's still alive."

Wang Yang smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I will do my best to find him. If I can find him, I will definitely reunite you."

"His name is probably fake. To be honest, there's no need to tell you, it's a very common name, and it would probably be very difficult to find."

Wang Yang also understood that in an era without photographs, finding the clue of superb medical skills alone was indeed not easy.

"You said he's a very good doctor. Did you learn your medical skills from him?"

“You’re right. He’s not only my brother, but also my master. All my medical skills were taught to me by him. Although I have some basic knowledge, it’s nothing.”

Wang Yang pondered that if this person really knew his parents and was a doctor, it shouldn't be difficult to investigate him.

"His medical skills are quite superb, he must have received professional training and be a highly skilled professional."

"Okay, this clue is very useful. What are his distinguishing features?"

Old Wang tried hard to recall. Although the two were very close back then, so much time had passed that many details had become blurry.

“I remember now, he seemed to have a small birthmark on his right arm. To be honest, I’m not sure if it was a birthmark.”

Old Wang only vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a mark on his right hand, but he wasn't sure if it was a birthmark.

“Okay, I understand. This clue is very valuable. If I can find him, I will definitely arrange for you to meet.”

However, he didn't want Lao Wang to have too high expectations, after all, times had changed, and Shen Qiang's men had been hunting him down all along.

"I just want to know his last news. Actually, I've given up hope that he's still alive."

“I understand. I will handle Xia’s situation properly and try my best to prevent her from getting hurt. But you have to understand that she is Shen Qiang’s child after all, and that identity means she can’t stay out of it.”

Old Wang sighed deeply. He knew Xia was a child with a tragic past, and now he knew even more about her background. "Actually, I often think, if only Xia would never leave me. I've always treated her like my own daughter, and I'll take good care of her. If she and Musk can be together in the future, they can live a happy life."

Wang Yang was well aware of this. When Musk wanted to be with Xia, Wang Yang had strongly opposed it, because he felt that Musk's career was too unstable and dangerous, and he was worried that Xia would suffer in the future.

To think so much for her shows that he truly treats her like his own daughter. It's just a cruel twist of fate.

"Don't think like that. Even though Xia knows she is Shen Qiang's daughter, she still considers you her biological father. She has also said that she will never acknowledge Shen Qiang as her father."

Old Wang nodded. He understood perfectly well that if Shen Qiang weren't this kind of person, he might have also advised Xia to acknowledge her ancestors. But Shen Qiang was an utterly wicked man, and he simply couldn't do it.

"I just hope she doesn't get hurt."

“I will do my best to protect her. Please take good care of her during this time and try to comfort her. Xia is such a sensible child; she keeps everything to herself and doesn’t want to talk to anyone.”

Wang Yang was worried that her long-term suppression would cause problems. Moreover, Wang Yang had also instructed her not to tell Musk, so that she would have no one to confide in.

"Don't worry, Xia's mental resilience is stronger than we thought. I believe she can get through this."

"By the way, did you encounter any danger on your trip? Did you find any clues in that forest you mentioned?"

Wang Yang shook his head helplessly: "Still nothing. We not only need to investigate the clues now, but we also need to be wary of Shen Qiang and his men discovering our activities in the forest. I have left a group of people in the forest to continue searching. We came back to mislead Shen Qiang."

Fortunately, Wang Yang had established a good relationship with the hotel owner beforehand, so even if Shen Qiang's men arrived there, they would only assume they were ordinary tourists and wouldn't suspect anything.

They're essentially using a smokescreen right now. Since Wang Yang is in the northern part of the city, Shen Qiang won't suspect he's doing something elsewhere.

Wang Yang knew that Peach Blossom Spring was equally important to Shen Qiang, and that the other party would definitely keep a close eye on his whereabouts.

"Is Shen Qiang really an utterly wicked person?"

"Yes. I didn't believe it when others told me before, you know I had to see it with my own eyes. Only after getting to know him did I realize that he had indeed committed many evils."

Old Wang also looked helpless. If Shen Qiang were a kinder person, perhaps he would have really persuaded Xia to acknowledge him as her father.

"But in any case, he is Xia's biological father. And in terms of his fatherhood alone, he doesn't owe her anything."

Aside from the fact that Xia Xia went missing because he was chasing someone back then, he has also spent a lot of time and energy searching for her over the years.

"Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore. You should go home early, and call me if you need anything. It's really not safe to meet here."

"Okay, then I will take my leave."

When Wang Yang returned home, he saw Qin Wanwan sitting alone on the sofa, and assumed it was because he had been away for too long.

"What's wrong? Didn't I tell you I was going out today? I'm going to Xia's house to talk about something."

"I know. I'm asking you, did you meet any other women during this trip?"

Wang Yang found it amusing: "Of course I've met them. There are men and women in this world, so if I can meet men, I can certainly meet women. Didn't I tell you that last night?"
