My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 533 Si Mingjing and Her Daughter Recognize Each Other 2
Bai Danfeng, who had returned to Yecheng, received a call from a childhood friend. The friend’s barrage of questions left her bewildered.
"Have you seen the news? The child you gave birth to years ago, was it a daughter, or a son?"
Bai Danfeng hadn’t been paying attention to the trending topics and asked in confusion, "What do you mean whether it was a son or a daughter? Why are you asking such a strange question?"
Her childhood friend wished she could knock some sense into her. "Haven’t you been watching the news? Right now, netizens are digging into your sister’s past, saying that during the time you and your sister gave birth, the babies were swapped. The real birth mother of Her Majesty the Queen might not be your sister but you!"
Upon hearing these words, Bai Danfeng was flabbergasted. "This, this can’t be possible. Chuanfeng wouldn’t do such a thing."
"Why wouldn’t she? I’ve always felt that your sister is more scheming than you. Compared to her, you are just a sweet simpleton! Back then, she adored your son so much, always coveting the best for him rather than for Her Majesty. What kind of birth mother shows so much affection for a nephew over her own daughter?"
Bai Danfeng still attempted to defend herself, "I care deeply about Ajiu as well."
"With my fiery temper, I really... I’m about to be angered to death by you! Do you know that all the midwives who attended your and your sister’s deliveries died in various accidents in the following years? You idiot, think about it carefully. Was there a baby swap or not? If there was, then you are the true Queen Mother!"
Oh, how her childhood friend wished for her to turn the tables!
Ever since Bai Danfeng lost her husband and son and went to Yecheng to recuperate, marrying a man from the land, how many people had looked down upon her, mocking her behind her back?
Each time she heard these whispers, her childhood friend was infuriated. However, there was nothing she could do if Bai Danfeng herself didn’t strive for more. As a friend, no matter how angry she felt, it was useless!
Now, her childhood friend saw a chance for Bai Danfeng to turn the tide, and how thrilling was that prospect?
"Hurry and think it through! Princess Siyuan of Atlantis is dead, and it was Bai Chuanfeng who caused her death. Now Mo Yinhe and the Queen are definitely going to clash. If her real birth mother is not Bai Chuanfeng but you, their marriage might still have a chance to be saved. You’ve got to step up!"
"What, who did you say is dead?"
"Are you truly ignorant of the world outside, so focused on growing old with your husband? You don’t know such big news? Princess Siyuan of Atlantis has been killed in Mu Continent, and everyone is saying that Bai Chuanfeng is the mastermind behind it."
Bai Danfeng was completely stunned. This was awful! How could this be happening?
After ending the call, Bai Danfeng immediately shouted to her husband, who was watering the flowers in the garden, "Chengzhou, come with me to the Ye Family, there’s been a huge incident."
Tao Chengzhou put down the watering can and said, "What kind of incident has happened that it’s worth going out in 38-degree heat, with the sun blazing down, scorching the flowers parched, at a time like this?"
"Who cares about the blazing sun right now? Mingjing’s marriage is on the brink of collapse; I must go to the Ye Family immediately."
If Princess Siyuan was indeed killed by her sister, wouldn’t Mingjing’s marriage be over too?
Bai Danfeng felt distressed for her niece; she couldn’t believe that this was true.
Bai Danfeng and Tao Chengzhou drove to the palace gates, only to see countless reporters crowding the entrance, blocking the road solid.
Tao Chengzhou gripped the steering wheel tight. "It seems the news is true."
Something must have happened to Ye Siyuan; otherwise, there wouldn’t be this many reporters.
A sinking feeling grew heavier in Bai Danfeng’s heart. She tried to call Si Mingjing, but the phone was switched off.
She then tried to call Mo Yinhe; his phone was also switched off.
"What do we do now? No one’s answering their phone, and we can’t even get in."
Tao Chengzhou said, "Don’t panic, let me think of something. You just wait in the car."
Tao Chengzhou got out of his car and squeezed through the media throng at the palace entrance. He encountered the stern and austere guards and said something to them.
The guard glanced at him, picked up the walkie-talkie he held, and reported something.
A moment later, the guard said, "You can go in now."
Tao Chengzhou immediately returned to his car, honked his way through the swarm of reporters, forcing them to step aside, and then drove into the palace grounds.
Si Mingjing heard that her aunt had arrived, so she went out to greet her.
Bai Danfeng, with an anxious expression, came over and hugged Si Mingjing. "Mingjing, you’re back?"
"Yeah, I just arrived too. Aunt, why are you here?"
"How could I not come? With such a big incident, did Mo Yinhe give you any trouble?"
So Aunt was worried about me. Si Mingjing smiled and said, "Aunt, don’t worry, I’m fine, and Siyuan is fine too. The news outside is fake, but please don’t tell anyone. The sun is too strong right now; let’s go inside and talk."
"Fake? She’s alright?"
Bai Danfeng asked as she followed Si Mingjing inside the house. There, she immediately saw the very lively Ye Siyuan, sitting on the living room sofa, telling a story animatedly. Ye Junqing and Ye Xinguang’s faces would occasionally darken and then relax.
"She’s really okay?" Bai Danfeng’s heart settled in an instant.
Si Mingjing invited Bai Danfeng and Tao Chengzhou to sit down and instructed the butler to make tea. She then said, "It’s really nothing, so please don’t worry. Yinhe and I are doing wonderfully; we’re as sweet as honey."
As she spoke, she sat down next to Mo Yinhe. Little Bo Fengyin sat on Mo Yinhe’s other side, curiously sizing up his parents’ home with rolling eyes!
Ye Xinguang wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and said, "Thank heavens, I’m so glad your sister-in-law was there; otherwise, you would be..."
"Mom, the lucky are blessed by heaven. I’m already alright now; it’s just a scratch that needs some time to heal," Ye Siyuan said, doing her best to appear healthy.
It was then that Ye Xinguang had the chance to greet Bai Danfeng. "Mother-in-law is here?"
Bai Danfeng was taken aback. "Mother-in-law?"
Ye Xinguang, seeing Bai Danfeng’s expression, asked Si Mingjing, "What’s wrong? You haven’t acknowledged your mother yet? It’s all over the internet, with all the details, and you still haven’t told your mother the truth? You child, really..."
"I was planning to go find Aunt tonight and tell her about this."
Mo Yinhe reached out and ruffled her hair, saying, "Still ’Aunt’?"
"Yes, she’s my mother."
Si Mingjing’s sincere gaze turned towards Bai Danfeng.
Bai Danfeng’s heart leaped. Looking at Si Mingjing, her voice trembled, "Mingjing, Mingjing, this matter isn’t a joke. You... you don’t have proof, do you? How could you possibly be my child?"
"I have proof." Si Mingjing said, her heart aching for Bai Danfeng, "The last time you were in a car accident, I transfused Dragon Blood into you. You were quickly pulled back from the brink of death. Si Lisao told me this could only be possible for one reason: I must have been carried in your womb for ten months. That means you are the mother who gave birth to me."
Bai Danfeng’s head buzzed with disbelief. "Really, really... really?"
Si Mingjing stood up, walked over to Bai Danfeng, knelt down, and rested her head on Bai Danfeng’s leg, saying, "Mother, it’s true. You are my mother! Would you accept me as your daughter?"
