Chapter 1907: Biological Parents are Street Drifters

A single sentence awakens the dreamer.

The aunties have lived lives of hardship, and they just want to hear something different; she is happy to satisfy them.

Thus, Li Xueer begins to talk nonsense.

She says the bowls the Sheng Family uses for meals are all gold, the chopsticks are all ivory, there are several hundred servants in the house, and when eating, besides opening her mouth, she doesn't have to do anything else.

The clothes worn every day are washed spotlessly clean by servants, then ironed perfectly straight, scented with the fragrance each master likes, and put on the master personally.

Every piece of clothing is thrown away after being worn only once; if neighbors saw one wearing the same clothes, one would be laughed at. The trash cans in the residential compound have everything in them; some people just toss gold and silver jewelry they don't like into the trash cans...

Lao Litou's mouth twitches as he listens.

He truly never expected his daughter to have this "talent." Things that have no basis at all are described by her in such a logical and convincing way, becoming more fluent the more she speaks.

The aunties love to listen; this is the kind of life they want but have never obtained. How wonderful it is—if one could live like Li Xueer for even a few days, one would be satisfied for a lifetime.

The aunties leave the Lao Li household satisfied, and upon returning home, they embellish the story and tell it to their own families...

The family members then tell others; it spreads from ten to a hundred.

In less than two days, Li Xueer's wealthy lifestyle has already spread throughout the neighborhood; basically, everyone knows it.

This morning, just as Li Xueer gets out of bed, a knock sounds at the door.

She thinks it is the neighbors who want to hear stories again, coming over early, but when she opens the door to look, she doesn't recognize them.

A middle-aged man and woman stand at the doorway. The man is wearing a floral shirt, white trousers, and is bald, with a thick gold chain around his neck—thick enough to tether a dog.

The woman is also heavily made up, with bright red lips and a face as white as a ghost.

She is just about to ask, "Who are you looking for?"

The woman, however, grabs her in a hug and begins to cry out: "My poor daughter, Mommy has missed you so much; Mommy has been thinking of you every single day..."

"Let go of me, let go!"

She wants to break free, but the woman holds her very tightly, refusing to let go no matter what.

The man chimes in from the side: "Daughter, we are your biological mom and dad; we've come to claim you, come with us!"

As he speaks, he grabs Li Xueer's arm and pulls her outward. At this moment, the woman stops crying, and they both try to drag her out together.

Li Xueer is terrified and hurriedly shouts: "Get away, I don't know you, Dad, save me."

Lao Litou rushes out with a kitchen knife, and upon seeing the two, he freezes: "It's you?"

He recognizes these two.

Twenty years ago, they lived in this neighborhood for a period of time.

Both of them were the type who were lazy and hated work, yet wanted to eat well, drink well, dress well, and wear fine things!

Whenever they had money, they would gorge themselves; when they had no money, they would swindle and deceive. Everyone in the vicinity was terrified of being scammed by them.

Therefore, even though a long time has passed, Lao Litou recognizes these two at a glance.

"If you dare to set your sights on my daughter, I will slice you both into pieces!" The title of "Quick-Blade Li" is known by almost no one in this vicinity, and these two know it too.

They know Lao Litou is not to be trifled with, so the man hurriedly explains: "We are Li Xueer's biological parents; over twenty years ago, it was I who placed her at your doorstep."

"Yes, that's right."

The woman nods repeatedly.

Lao Litou asks: "What proof do you have that you are Xue'er's parents?"

The man: "We can go do a paternity test; science cannot lie."

"You have raised our daughter for so many years, thank you for your hard work; this is a small token of our appreciation, please don't think it's too little."

As the woman speaks, she takes two stacks of cash out of her bag to stuff into Lao Litou's hand.

"What are you doing? Put the money away, I don't want it!"

Lao Litou's face flushes red. Xue'er's biological parents have shown up, and he should be happy, but he cannot bring himself to be.

These two are not good people.

He has imagined the scenario of his daughter's biological parents showing up many times, but without exception, they were all beautiful—Xue'er's biological parents were good people who had unavoidable difficulties back then, which is why they left the child at his door.

Xue'er's biological parents were from a prominent, wealthy family, coming to take her back to be a wealthy young lady...

He doesn't care about what benefits he might receive; he only wants his daughter to live a happy and joyful life forever!

As it turns out, Xue'er's biological parents show up, and they are these two pieces of work?

Looking closely, there is some resemblance between Xue'er and the woman in their brows and eyes, but Lao Litou still doesn't believe it; he insists on going for a paternity test.

The process of the test goes smoothly, but the result is unsatisfactory—Xue'er is indeed the biological daughter of these two, no mistake!

The man is very smug, slapping the test report in his hand with a "pop-pop" sound: "Look, wasn't I right? She is my daughter."

The woman tries to stuff those twenty thousand yuan into Lao Litou's hand again: "Take this little bit of money, we are taking our daughter away..."

The way this is said, it's as if they want to use this twenty thousand yuan to buy off the bond between him and his daughter, and from now on, the daughter will have nothing to do with him—is that what they mean?

Very quickly, his suspicion is confirmed; it is indeed exactly like that.

The woman takes out a tissue, wipes the corners of her eyes, and says to Lao Litou: "Back then, when the child's father and I were dating, both our families opposed it and wouldn't buy us a house; they wouldn't agree to us being together no matter what. There was no other way, so when the child was born, we could only leave her at your door."

"Originally, we thought that once our lives got better, we would take the child back. Later, we saw that she was doing quite well at your place, and you are a kind and honest person; Xue'er was happier with you than with us, so we forced ourselves to suppress our longing for the child and didn't claim her..."

The woman speaks more beautifully than she sings.

Clearly, they were greedy for pleasure and didn't want to take responsibility, which is why they abandoned their own biological child, yet in a few words, she turns it into thinking of her daughter's happiness.

She also tells her daughter to go back with her and live together.

Before Lao Litou and Li Xueer can express their stance, the man gets anxious: "Why should she go with you? I am Xue'er's biological father; she is a member of our Du Family, so of course, she must go with me."

"Xue'er was born after I carried her for ten months..."

"That was your damn choice!"

"Du Jiangtao, you heartless thing, I'll fight you..."

The two look like they are about to fight, at which point they are stopped by Li Xueer: "Stop it, both of you!"

"If you want to fight, go outside to fight, or wait until my dad and I have left before you fight. It has nothing to do with us, and don't drag me into it. This is really interesting; who agreed to go with you? You don't need to argue; I won't go with either of you, and I won't acknowledge you."

"I only have one relative, and that is him!"

Li Xueer finished speaking and pulled her father away.

The father and daughter returned home, and before they could even drink a sip of water, those two people had chased after them!

At first, Li Xueer would not open the door for them, so those two people just loitered at the doorway, making a racket and refusing to leave.

Lao Litou was afraid it would affect his daughter's reputation, so he opened the door and let the two of them in.
