Chapter 117: Sever the Peach Blossoms

Du An Rao had not expected her fourth sister to still remember to stand up for her at a time like this. In an instant she was taken back to the first time they met. She could not help showing a big row of white teeth.

The Zhang couple also let out a breath of relief. With this result, they could already thank the heavens. They quickly shot their foolish son a look.

Face flushed red, Zhang Zi Qi looked at Du An Rao and said in a low voice: “I am sorry.”

Du An Rao blinked. It was like she suddenly thought of something, and she smiled.

“Actually, there is no need to apologize. There is a saying, right? If you do not know the whole story, you should not judge. Did you not say I was pretending to be a ghost and a god? Then I will give you a free divination.”

Everyone from the Du Family and the Li Family looked at her with curious and indulgent faces. They wanted to see what she was going to do.

The Zhang couple, however, grew nervous. They were afraid that Du An Rao would say something bad about their son. When that happened, were they supposed to believe it or believe it?

“Mr. Zhang’s eyebrows are very thick, and his Marriage Gate is a little sunken. That means you take feelings very seriously, but you are also easily dragged down by them and run into bad peach blossoms. Right now the Lian Zhen Star has entered your Spouse Palace and collided with the Po Jun star. When you meet trouble it only gets worse. Your Peach Blossom Calamity will turn into a Peach Blossom Curse.”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present became strange.

Everyone knew very well who the Peach Blossom Calamity and Peach Blossom Curse in her mouth were pointing at.

Because they knew, they could not say she was wrong. But if they said she was very accurate, that also felt ridiculous.

Zhang Zi Qi opened his mouth and shut it again, then opened it and shut it once more. His face turned bright red, making Du An Rao feel very pleased.

[Hahaha, I really do like it when people cannot stand me, yet still cannot do anything about me.]

The people of the Du Family could not help shaking their heads with small smiles. This little girl still held grudges, but that was also good. At least she would not be bullied easily.

While others were tangled up about whether Du An Rao’s divination was accurate or not, Mother Zhang was thinking about her son’s safety.

She was like Ruan Xiu Ru. She did not really care who her child liked or how he fell in love, as long as he did not go too far.

But after this incident, she truly wished she could stay far away from Li Qian Xi. It would be best if she never had to hear that name again.

“Then how can we break this tribulation?”

Du An Rao gave Mother Zhang an approving look and rubbed her chin: “Since this tribulation comes from a bad peach blossom, you just need to sever the peach blossoms, and then you will be safe.”

[Heh heh, this is called beating someone with their own spear. Is Li Qian Xi not good at using these little fish and shrimp to fight for her? I will save every one of them I can. I want to see if she can still sit there so calmly behind the scenes once all her fish and shrimp are released back into the water.]

Du Yi Han looked at this younger girl, who looked pure on the outside but was full of tricks on the inside, with great interest. He felt she was really fun, much more fun than the stiff old-fashioned people at home who never changed their minds. He was sure they would have a lot to talk about.

Du Jun Yan saw through his thoughts at a glance. He frowned and warned him: “Calm down. Do not scare An An.”

Du Yi Han laughed in a teasing way: “Listen to yourself. Am I that kind of person?”

Du Jun Yan rolled his eyes at him. His look clearly said with action: Yes. In my eyes, you are exactly that kind of person.

Du Yi Han: “…”

“We only need to cut off the peach blossoms? There is nothing else to do?”

“Mm, you only need to sever the peach blossoms. But…”

Mother Zhang’s heart tightened again: “But what?”

“As I said earlier, Mr. Zhang takes feelings very seriously. That is his strength, but also his weak spot. As his parents, you should pay more attention to his love life, so he does not run into another bad peach blossom after this.”

These words were clearly a gentle reminder from Du An Rao to Mother Zhang that her son was easy to act stupid and easy to be fooled by women.

From now on, she needed to watch him closely. If they cut off one Li Qian Xi, there might still be a Zhao Qian Xi or a Qian Qian Xi later…

Mother Zhang understood. The corner of her mouth twitched. She glanced at her son, whose face was full of confusion and the word “simple”, and sighed softly, feeling very troubled.

Zhang Zi Qi: “???” Mom, this time really was just an accident. I am really not that stupid. Really!

Sadly, at this moment no one was willing to believe him.

The matter was already perfectly resolved, but the three members of the Zhang Family were too embarrassed to stay any longer. They hurried to thank Du An Rao, greeted the people of the Du Family, and left first.

After sending away the troublemakers, the Du Family could finally sit down and talk properly with this unexpected family.

As the hosts, Father Du and Mother Du looked at each other, then spoke first: “You are…?”

As the head of his family, Uncle Li quickly stepped forward: “Our surname is Li. We are from City J.”

“So you are Mr. Li. I wonder, you and the Mr. Li on Yu Xi’s paternity test report are…?”

“Gu Wei and I are biological brothers. The two people who did the paternity test with Yu Xi are my younger brother Li Gu Wei and my sister-in-law Su Ying Rong.”

Mother Du nodded: “Then how did you get this test report? Yu Xi, she…”

Uncle Li looked embarrassed, but still told the truth: “My son picked up Yu Xi’s hair clip at a party. Without asking her, he took the hair on it and compared it with the DNA samples my brother and sister-in-law left at the hospital many years ago for a test.”

Aunt Li was worried that the Du Family, especially Du Yu Xi, would think they were overbearing, selfish, and fake because of this, so she hurried to explain: “We know it was not proper to do a paternity test for Yu Xi and Gu Wei and Ying Rong without Yu Xi’s consent. But we were really anxious to know what relationship she had with our family. Mr. Du, Madam Du, maybe you do not know. When my sister-in-law was young, she looked almost exactly the same as Yu Xi does now. And the three children were all born in the same hospital…”

In her heart, Mother Du thought, How could I not know? I found out earlier than you did, and I know more than you do.

But out loud she only said: “So that is how it is. Yu Xi, is what she said true?”

“It is true. I really do look a lot like that Mrs. Li.”

“It is because you look like her that Zhao Yang, your cousin, could not help inviting you to our home the first time he met you.”

Under Aunt Li’s gentle retelling, the whole story turned into this: when Li Zhao Yang first saw Du Yu Xi at the company, he was amazed by her and warmly invited her to attend a private dinner party that Aunt Li was hosting.

At the party, everyone who knew Li Gu Wei and Su Ying Rong was very surprised to see Du Yu Xi. When they found out that she and Li Qian Xi had been born in the same hospital and had just gone through a baby swapping incident not long ago, they could not help letting their imagination run wild.

“So you took Yu Xi’s hair and did a paternity test with your brother and his wife, and got this result.”

“Yes.”

Mother Du did not say anything more. She turned to look at Du Yu Xi.

Du Yu Xi pressed her lips together and said in a hoarse voice: “But that night, you told me that Mr. Li and Ms. Su passed away long ago and did not leave any DNA samples.”

“That was because Qian Xi was there too.”

Du Yu Xi raised an eyebrow and said with deep meaning: “So you were worried my existence would hurt her?”
