It started with being betrayed by my ex-boyfriend

Everyone was very happy. This issue that had been troubling everyone was finally resolved easily after reaching a consensus.

Before leaving, Bai Yunxi made a special trip to burn incense and sweep the graves of the rebel soldiers and Murong Yuhan respectively. Under the iron hoof of the Qing court, the land and the people they protected with their lives finally comforted them in this way after many years.

"Now, they can really rest in peace." Bai Yunxi stood at the entrance of the village, looked back at the mountains in the distance, and sighed softly.

"It's fate, after all. This village has remained the same for so many years. Your arrival has changed their status quo and made them open their doors and integrate into modern society." Tao Jingchen said, "It seems that your resemblance to Murong Yuhan was not born in vain."

Bai Yunxi looked at him, not quite understanding.

Murong Xiang understood and said with a smile: "In fact, we have tried before to persuade them to leave the village. After all, that era has passed, and now no one will force them to live there for generations and not come out. But they are very resistant. Even the village chief rarely has the opportunity to come out. The last time I saw him was because Murong Yuhan's portrait was broken and needed to be repaired. If someone else had said something like turning it into an ancient town and opening it up to tourism, they would definitely not agree. But if you say it, the meaning is very different."

Seeing that Bai Yunxi still didn't understand, he continued, "They have never let go of Murong Yuhan, and after the village chief met Qianqian, he wanted to invite her to come and take a look, as an explanation for their years of persistence. But Qianqian was too weak to make the trip. After you came, they let go of the burden that had been weighing on their hearts for many years. This time, you protected them, and it was you who proposed this, so they were happy to accept it."

Bai Yunxi said ashamedly: "It wasn't me who protected them, it was Jing Chen who helped them."

Ran Yiyun said: "Yes, if Jing Chen hadn't expressed his willingness to bear the cost of rerouting the pipeline, who knows what would have happened!"

Tao Jingchen chuckled and said, "Don't say that. This matter was caused by me, so it is only right for me to come forward and solve it. In fact, it was all thanks to Yunxi's suggestion. Otherwise, the pipeline would have to be temporarily diverted, and the long negotiations between Ji and Tao would have been a joke. Now that this village is to be turned into an ancient town and open to tourism, and in the future it will be designated as a cultural relic protection area, the diversion will be justified. I just need to go back and get the approval document. Yunxi is still the key person in the whole thing."

Everyone knows that Ji Hanmo can become the king of the business empire because he naturally puts economic interests first in everything. He married Bai Yunxi in order to successfully sign the contract with the French company. In the final analysis, it was still for money.

But this time, he even gave up his position as the president of Ji Corporation for Bai Yunxi. If he hadn't used such a ruthless trick, and if Tao Jingchen hadn't been there, it would have been unknown whether the village could be saved.

So Tao Jingchen was not wrong, the person who played a key role in the whole incident was really Bai Yunxi.

Bai Yunxi sighed, "How can I be that capable? Jingchen, I always cause you trouble, and I feel really bad for that."

Tao Jingchen smiled gently. What trouble were they talking about?

He was willing to do anything for her.

When the group returned to Murong's house, it was already late.

119 stood pitifully at the gate of Murong's house, constantly looking outside. When he saw them coming back, he was overjoyed!

"Madam, you are finally back!" She came forward happily, "Madam, how do you feel? Are you tired?"

Bai Yunxi shook his head, and she helped Bai Yunxi walk inside.

After taking two steps, she suddenly turned around and looked at Tao Jingchen, and whispered, "Director Tao should be very busy these days, right?"

Tao Jingchen raised his eyebrows. What did this little girl know?

"The president went back to City A overnight yesterday. He asked me to tell you something: I'm sorry to trouble you with the things here."

Tao Jingchen burst out laughing. Is Ji Hanmo planning to completely pass the blame to him?

What a good time to leave!

Bai Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "I have to go back to City A as well."

Ran Yiyun frowned immediately: "Why go back? Haven't you suffered enough at the hands of Yang Qiurong? What's wrong with continuing to be supported by the Murong family? It's not like the Murong family can't afford to support you!"

This kid!

Bai Yunxi smiled and said, "Mother Murong, of course the Murong family can support me, but I haven't told my mother that I'm your goddaughter yet! She just came back from her trip, and I haven't seen her for a while, so I'll go see her too."

Murong Xiang slapped his thigh and said, "Oh my! I've been so busy with this and that lately that I missed such an important matter! We should go and pay him a visit!"

"No need to bother!" Bai Yunxi said, "I'll just go back and tell her. You guys are so nice to me, my mom will be so happy!"

All parents feel the same: if their children live well, that's better than anything else.

After all, Bai Yunxi was only the goddaughter of the Murong family, and Ning Hongyu was still alive, so it was not easy for Murong's parents to keep her. Naturally, they sent her back in a lot of luggage.

Tao Jingchen sighed slightly. After all, he had no suitable position to protect her legitimately. Even though he knew that she would inevitably be embarrassed by Yang Qiurong if she returned to City A.

"Ji Hanmo is gone. I'm afraid I'll be busy with things here for a while, so I can't go back with you. But don't worry, Jingying is still there. If you have any problems, just go to her. You know, she will do it for you without my instructions."

Bai Yunxi nodded, her eyes red with emotion. Meeting this brother and sister was truly a blessing in her life.

When she went to Jiangnan, Tao Jingchen picked her up on the Tao family's private plane. This time when she returned to City A, Tao Jingchen also sent her back on a private plane.

However, what Bai Yunxi didn't expect was that as soon as she landed, Tao Jingying and Jin Yunlu were already waiting there.

"Yunxi!"

"Yunxi!"

The two people shouted at the same time, and then rushed forward one after another.

"Tsk tsk, this vacation is so comfortable. Your little face has become rounder." Jin Yunlu said.

Bai Yunxi was deeply moved. Jin Yunlu was still so considerate of her. He knew what she had just experienced, but deliberately said that she was on "vacation"!

Who knew that Tao Jingying immediately glanced at her and said disdainfully: "Can you speak? It's obvious that Yunxi's belly has gotten a little fatter!"

Bai Yunxi's eyes widened. It had been so long, why were these two still so at odds with each other? !

Jin Yunlu ignored her and grabbed Bai Yunxi: "Come on, stay at my place. I have prepared a room for you."

Tao Jingying added: "Your place is so small and the floor is so high, how can Yunxi live comfortably? You should go to my place!"

Jin Yunlu immediately sneered, "Are you kidding?! How can I live in your place? Your place is the Tao family!"

Is it reasonable for Bai Yunxi to live in the house bought by Tao Jingchen? Yang Qiurong and Han Ying can't do anything to Ji Hanmo, so they are just waiting to catch Bai Yunxi's little braid! Isn't this just pushing people into a pit? !

Although the two of them were quarreling with each other, Bai Yunxi felt warm in her heart. They tried their best to arrange everything for her, but no one mentioned her current embarrassing situation.

She smiled and said, "Don't bother you. I've already talked to my mother. Since she just came back, I'll stay at her place for a few days."

Jin Yunlu and Tao Jingying were stunned. They tried their best to overwhelm each other in front of Bai Yunxi, but in the end, no one gained the upper hand!

Ning Hongyu was already waiting at home.

As soon as the mother and daughter met, they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"Mom! You've become... so beautiful!"

It's only been a short while since I last saw her, but Ning Hongyu's complexion is very different from before. Her face has become much rosier, and even her clothing style has become much more fashionable. She looks at least ten years younger!

In Ning Hongyu's eyes, Bai Yunxi seemed to have been reborn all of a sudden. She was no longer the naive and ordinary little girl before. Instead, there was a hint of nobility emanating from between her brows. Her every move was calm and peaceful. The whole person became mature and elegant, and an indescribable demeanor of a noble person was revealed without any sound.

She almost doubted that this was not her daughter!

"Yunxi, you..." She suddenly felt panicked, as if the daughter she had raised was about to leave her.

She quickly hugged Bai Yunxi, tears falling uncontrollably.

"Mom!" Bai Yunxi didn't think her behavior was strange. She hadn't seen her for a while and she missed her mother very much!

In the past, when she was at the Bai family, her mother could only hug her secretly and give her warmth when no one was around. Otherwise, Grandpa Xia and Uncle Xia's family would scold her for wanting to be lazy again.

"Hello, Auntie!" Jin Yunlu and Tao Jingying were standing behind Bai Yunxi, one on the left and one on the right, calling out politely.

Ning Hongyu wiped her tears and quickly welcomed the three of them into the house.

Tao Jingying's assistant and 119 moved in all the gifts sent by the Murong family.

"Kid, just come back. Why did you buy so many things? I haven't used the things you and Han Mo bought for me yet!"

Suddenly hearing Ji Hanmo's name, Bai Yunxi's heart suddenly paused, and she chuckled, "Mom, there's something I haven't told you. These things were not bought by us. My godparents bought them for you."

"Godfather...godmother?" Ning Hongyu was stunned. She just listened to her friend's advice and put everything aside to go traveling. How come when she came back, it seemed like something happened that she didn't know about?

When did Yunxi have a godfather and godmother?

Bai Yunxi quickly handed the letter from Murong's parents to Ning Hongyu.

They could have contacted her by phone, but Murong's parents insisted on traditional etiquette and had to write a letter to Ning Hongyu first. After she had read the letter and was mentally prepared, they would contact her by phone.

Bai Yunxi couldn't resist, and the other party was sincere, so she had to do as he said.

Unexpectedly, Ning Hongyu just looked at the envelope in confusion, and her expression suddenly changed.

"...Murong Xiang?"

"Yes, yes!" 119 put all the gifts in place and came over. Just then, he heard Ning Hongyu reading the name on the envelope in surprise. She said excitedly, "Young Madam's godfather is the head of the Murong family of this generation, Mr. Murong Xiang, and her godmother is his wife, Ms. Ran Yiyun! Yes, the Murong family is a traditional cultural family, very famous in the Jiangnan area and even in the country! Their family has produced many talents who are dedicated to studying, and many of them are even imperial teachers..."

She just thought that Ning Hongyu had been staying in the countryside before, so she didn't quite understand what the Murong family was like, so she hurriedly gave Ning Hongyu a brief introduction. Unexpectedly, the more Ning Hongyu listened, the worse her expression became.

Bai Yunxi was terrified and quickly interrupted 119 to explain to Ning Hongyu, "Mom! I recognized Murong's father and mother as my godparents. There were many coincidences, such as I look very similar to their daughter who passed away not long ago, and some things happened later, which finally made it happen. But it was definitely not because I deliberately wanted to get close to them. Even though the Murong family is a famous family, you are my biological mother. You have to believe your daughter. I am not the kind of ungrateful person!"

Ning Hongyu's stiff expression quickly relaxed when she heard her say that. She waved her hand and said, "Yunxi, why do you say that?! I am incompetent and gave birth to you in vain, but I can't give you a good life, not even the basic family warmth. I already feel that I owe you a lot. I am so happy that such a good family is willing to accept you as a goddaughter!"

Bai Yunxi felt relieved, and finally put his mind at ease: "Murong's father and mother are very good to me. They wanted to come to see you before. They are people who attach great importance to traditional etiquette. It's just that a lot of things happened during that time, and you were traveling and couldn't be contacted, so some procedures were simplified. But they will come here specially in a while."

Ning Hongyu was shocked and waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, no! Don't trouble them like this! I'm already very grateful that they can take care of you for me, how can I make them run around like this?"

Bai Yunxi said: "I also told Murong's father and mother that there is no need to go through so much trouble. They are so kind to me, you will be very happy too."

Ning Hongyu nodded her head continuously: "Of course! Of course!"

Bai Yunxi felt relieved when he saw her complexion gradually returning to normal. He took Ning Hongyu to see the various gifts prepared by Murong's parents.

Ning Hongyu smiled from ear to ear. She didn't care what the gifts were like, but the more expensive the gifts were, the more it showed that Murong's parents valued Bai Yunxi. So many things were a token of their love for their daughter!

Jin Yunlu and Tao Jingying saw all of this, and suddenly they looked at each other, seeing a hint of doubt in each other's eyes.
