C365 Unreconciled
Guo Xuehua seemed to have confirmed her guess and said, "When I first saw Yang Chen in the orphanage that day, I felt that it was similar to that young man, as if he was an old friend of mine, but I couldn't figure out who he was, so I didn't think too much about it. Today, I went to ask him to save Lieh'er. When I saw him, I also felt a strange sensation … "I don't understand why when I clearly didn't know him, I felt that there was some sort of fate between us …"
Guo Xuehua said with a sad smile, "Only a silly mother like me wouldn't be able to feel it in front of my own child. When I saw you just now, I suddenly thought of Yang Chen's appearance. Doesn't he look very similar to you when you were young? "Although their appearances are different, their contours are almost identical. Your eyes and nose are almost exactly the same …"
"Xuehua, you think too much, this is just a coincidence." Yang Pojun said with mixed emotions.
Guo Xuehua sneered, "Coincidence?" Yes, what a coincidence, his surname is Yang, he looks very much like you, and the first time I saw him, I didn't know him at all, and I thought he looked very familiar … Oh yeah, when I saw him just now, he spoke like he was his family. What a coincidence, I actually know this young man. "Also, I begged him to treat Lieh'er. When I knelt down to beg him, he told me not to kneel to him anymore …"
"What!?" Yang Pojun opened his eyes wide, "You said you want to kneel to him!? How can you kneel to your son!? "
When Yang Pojun finished his sentence in a rage, he suddenly realized that this was Guo Xuehua's trap!
Sure enough, a hint of ecstasy appeared in Guo Xuehua's eyes. Her chest rose and fell, as if she received a new life. Her body trembled, and she looked at Yang Pojun with a gaze brimming with tears.
"You've finally admitted it. That child Yang Chen is truly my son. He is truly …"
The corner of Yang Pojun's eyes twitched as he said with a gloomy face, "So what if he is? He appeared at the wrong time."
Unexpectedly, Guo Xuehua didn't listen to what he had to say anymore. The answer was yes, but Guo Xuehua was already immersed in ecstasy, unable to extricate herself from it!
Tears welled up in her eyes. The son that she could not find after being lost for more than twenty years was actually alive in this world. Guo Xuehua felt as if all her haze had been blown away by a cool breeze.
"My son, I knew I'd find him …"
Guo Xuehua wiped away her tears as she walked out with a gratified smile on her face.
"Where are you going!?" Yang Pojun dashed in front of Guo Xuehua to stop her from leaving the room.
Guo Xuehua said anxiously, "Of course to get Yang Chen back! I want to tell him that Mom has been looking for him for more than twenty years, and I want to tell him right away! "
"Do you think he doesn't know that you're his mother?" Yang Pojun asked.
Guo Xuehua was stunned for a moment. Her mind flashed with lightning. She thought about how Yang Chen told her not to kneel to him anymore. Did he know her identity?
"He knows that you are his mother and that I am his father, but that brat treated us as strangers. Do you think that if you go and find him, he will give you face?" Yang Pojun asked again.
Guo Xuehua held onto her chest, feeling a sharp pain in her heart, but after that, she bit her lips, took a deep breath and said, "We abandoned him for over twenty years and he ignored us. Of course he would hate us and refuse to recognize us. But that's not the same thing as me admitting him. I will let him know that my love for him has never been lacking and that I will use the rest of my life to make up for it. So, whether or not he is willing to recognize me, I will go see him and tell him the truth. "
Yang Pojun said angrily, "Ignorant! Do you know what would happen if you do this!? If others were to find out that our Yang Family had a son, how would others view us as husband and wife!? What happened back then will be unearthed again, not just by me, you, and even Father! Our entire family! They would be embarrassed! Do you know!? "
"But isn't this all our own doing!? Could it be that for the sake of face, you can even disregard your own flesh and blood, and directly pretend as if you don't exist!? " Guo Xuehua screamed.
Yang Pojun arrogantly said: "I am doing this for the Yang Family, for the glory of our family, to sacrifice a brat who I have not seen for over twenty years is nothing!"
Guo Xuehua was so angry that she started laughing, looking at her husband who looked like a stranger, "Yang Pojun, why did you become like this? You weren't like this before. You told me that you would come with me and bring the child home from the orphanage. The baby's gone and you're still in the room crying. Didn't you say that you would come with me and bring the child back? Why would the current you only want to do these ridiculous things for the sake of your own position and power? In your eyes, the honor of a family is to give up your own flesh and blood? Do you want your wife to look down on you!? "
"Pah!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Yang Pojun suddenly slapped Guo Xuehua's right cheek!
Guo Xuehua, who was originally a normal woman and child, was sent flying to the side by a military expert like Yang Pojun. Her right cheek swelled up red as she fell to the ground. Her crying red eyes were filled with shock and confusion.
Yang Pojun saw his wife's stunned expression and couldn't believe it. His heart ached and he regretted it a little. He hurriedly went forward to help Guo Xuehua up.
"Xuehua, I didn't do it on purpose …"
"Leave me alone!"
Guo Xuehua waved away the hand Yang Pojun wanted to support her, and staggered up, stroking her swollen and hot cheek, smiling sadly: "Yang Pojun, I've been married to you for almost 25 years, ever since I met you, no matter what I did wrong or said wrong, you've never scolded me at all …
Today, you actually dared to hit me in order to stop me from seeing my biological son, who has been separated for over twenty years? "
Yang Pojun closed his eyes to calm his emotions and said in a low voice, "Xuehua, I was wrong to beat you, but you have to understand that if you recognize him, the result will be my complete defeat in the general election! After that, no one from the Yang Family would be able to enter the core upper echelons of the nation for the next dozen or so years. Do you know what this means to our Yang Family? Do you know how many people will lose their support from Yang Family and how many people will be affected? "
"Do you think I don't understand? So what if you can't be the vice chairman of the military committee? His students were everywhere in the center. Without you, at most, your Yang Family will stagnate and you will no longer be a top family. "So what?" Guo Xuehua laughed coldly, "You just can't accept it. You can't accept the power you have, and you can't accept the fact that you've been operating for so many years without this old face of yours …"
"You!"
Yang Pojun's face turned red at the words. He raised his hand and wanted to hit her again, but when he saw Guo Xuehua looking at him with a smile, he couldn't do it anymore.
Yang Pojun turned around and opened the door.
Outside the door, Guo Xuehua's guard, Xiao Wen and Xiao Li, were already waiting. They could vaguely hear the adults inside quarreling, but they were still trembling with fear.
"Chief!"
When the two saw Yang Pojun, they immediately greeted him respectfully.
Yang Pojun said to the two girls, "You two take Madam back to the other courtyard. From today onwards, without my permission, you are not allowed to contact the outside world, and you are not allowed to leave the courtyard. If anyone wants to see Madame, report to me. If I don't approve, no one can see me! "
"Yang Pojun!" You can't do this! I'm going to see Yang Chen! " Guo Xuehua shouted anxiously when she heard that Yang Pojun was going to imprison her and prevent her from going to see Yang Chen.
Little Wen and Little Li looked at each other awkwardly before they nodded and said, "Yes."
Although they were Guo Xuehua's personal guards, they were still female soldiers under Yang Pojun. As soldiers, they had to obey his commands completely.
Yang Pojun turned around and looked at his wife who was full of indignation and unwillingness. He hesitated for a moment and wanted to say something, but in the end, he just indifferently turned his head around and left in big strides.
"Madam, come back with us!" Xiao Wen said sorrowfully to Guo Xuehua. Although she did not know why the Chief had done this to the Lady. However, no matter how sympathetic they were, they had to follow the orders of their superiors and take charge of the madame.
Guo Xuehua, on the other hand, didn't seem to hear him at all. Her legs gave way and her listless eyes fell to the ground. She murmured something, but no one could hear her clearly.
