Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2684 - 2620: Such a Twist of Fate

How could such an unbelievable turn of events, such a profound mishap, befall him? And what of Xiao Qing?

Chiang Xiao herself was utterly dumbfounded, finding it difficult to process the revelation for quite some time. If this astounding matter hadn't directly concerned her own lineage and her biological mother, she would have surely dismissed it as a fantastical, unbelievable tale. Yet, this was indeed her reality. What could she possibly say to it all?

"So, you're telling me my mother is Xiao Qing?"

Jiang Shiheng clasped her hand, affirming, "Yes, it's her. I've recalled Xiao Qing, and I can see it now. Little one, you do bear a resemblance to Xiao Qing."

"But where is she now? Why did she go to Bai Gu Mountain after giving birth to me? Was she intending to find you later?"

"After Xiao Qing and I departed from Bai Gu Mountain, we located an abandoned dwelling and settled there. However, perhaps a month or two later, I realized that those searching for me seemed to have discovered our whereabouts. There were individuals tailing me, and it wasn't just one or two, but a considerable number. I feared leading them to Xiao Qing. At that time, Xiao Qing appeared to be expecting a child. I didn't fully grasp the implications of having a child, but I knew her health was delicate, requiring utmost protection."

His mental faculties at that juncture were still underdeveloped, akin to those of a young child. His sole instinct was to prevent those pursuers from finding Xiao Qing. Thus, he secretly fled, deliberately drawing them back towards Bai Gu Mountain, remaining there for an extended period until he finally managed to evade them.

Upon emerging from the mountain and returning to the secluded house where Xiao Qing resided, he discovered she had vanished. Someone mentioned seeing Xiao Qing depart by car and indicated a direction. He followed that lead, relentlessly searching.

However, he never found Xiao Qing again. Some time passed, and inexplicably, he began to forget about her. At that point, his mind seemed to operate beyond his control; he couldn't comprehend why Xiao Qing's memory had faded. Regardless, from that moment until the present day, he had not remembered her until now.

"We must find her," Jiang Shiheng declared with conviction.

"What is her full name?"

"Lu Qingshuang. That is her complete name. Though, I recall her mentioning before she went to the Lu Family that she didn't use that name. She was known as Shi Xiaoqing, which is why I always called her Xiao Qing. Her mother bestowed the name Lu Qingshuang upon her when she took her into the Lu Family, stating that the eldest miss was named Lu Shuangshuang, thus changing her name to Lu Qingshuang."

As Jiang Shiheng recounted these events, the persistent feeling of having overlooked something critically important, a burden that had weighed on him, instantly dissipated. He finally understood who the significant person was that he felt he had forgotten, and what crucial matter had slipped his mind. Xiao Qing, his Xiao Qing.

Chiang Xiao murmured the name, "Qingshuang." The name resonated with her, sounding strangely familiar, as if she had encountered it somewhere before.

"Little one?" Jiang Shiheng noticed her gaze drift and gently squeezed her hand, inquiring, "What's wrong? Have you recalled something?"

"Dad, this name, Qingshuang, it feels like I've heard it somewhere before."

A jolt ran through Jiang Shiheng's heart. He instinctively tightened his grip on her hand, urgently asking, "Where?" Could it be that Chiang Xiao had already crossed paths with his Xiao Qing?

Chiang Xiao shook her head, replying, "I believe I've heard it, but I simply cannot pinpoint the exact place."

"You will remember, right?" Chiang Xiao possessed an exceptional memory; she was bound to recall it eventually.
