Gao Zhan Peng did not give up. He used all means to pursue me and once tricked me into a hotel after treating me to dinner, resulting in my pregnancy with Xiang Yang. Afterward, I learned that he was already married with many mistresses. Once I became pregnant, he revealed his true colors, forbidding me from aborting the child and forcing me to become his mistress. He threatened to ruin my reputation and make my fiancé’s life miserable. I was confused and didn’t know how to resist, becoming his underground mistress for two years. Fortunately, his many mistresses made him gradually pay no attention to me, and we finally ended our relationship, with him using the condition of taking Xiang Yang away. Poor Xiang Yang had to survive in such a complex family from a young age and suffered bullying. Gao Zhan Peng’s wife was a formidable woman who vented her anger on Xiang Yang. I don’t know how he survived, and due to hatred and embarrassment, I never visited him.
Later, I heard that the legitimate young master and princess were children born to Gao Zhan Peng’s wife.
They were older than Xiang Yang, arrogant and domineering, humiliating him with their mother’s strong support. When Xiang Yang was seven, his father, following someone’s scheme, sent him abroad and arranged a nanny to care for him. Imagine how a young child who didn’t know English survived there.
During this time, Xiang Yang returned to the country three times, always going directly to the hospital. The first visit was for a DNA test at his grandfather’s request to confirm his identity. The second was due to Gao Zhan Peng’s wife’s fear that Xiang Yang would claim their inheritance, requiring another DNA test. The third visit was at his aunt’s request, again for inheritance purposes. One DNA test from an authoritative institution is definitive, but these hypocrites didn’t trust one another and kept dragging Xiang Yang back and forth. Such experiences must have deeply wounded him.
The painful memories were unbearable, piercing his mother’s heart. Jiang’s mother cried while speaking.
Xiang Yang remained abroad until he was fourteen. Upon returning, he said to her, “Mom, don’t abandon me anymore. I won’t go anywhere; I’ll stay by your side.”
