Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering
Chapter 1640: ExcitementWhen Tang Xi heard Ling Hui’s cold snort, his lips curled up and he could not help but laugh.
The two of them exited the door one after another.
The heavy rain had stopped. The old man was squatting in the yard, burning paper money.
As he burned it, he muttered softly, “Every debt has its debtor. Don’t look for me, don’t look for me…”
Ten minutes later, the old man seemed to have noticed something and turned around.
Tang Xi was standing not far behind him. The old man shone the flashlight in his hand and Tang Xi’s handsome and charming face appeared in front of him. The old man fell to the ground in fear and hugged his head with both hands. “Go away, don’t look for me. I didn’t kill you…”
Tang Xi and Ling Hui looked at each other.
The old man’s reaction confirmed their guess.
He must have seen Tang Xi’s mother.
Tang Xi rushed forward and grabbed the old man’s arm.
Tang Xi pulled the old man into the house.
The old man closed his eyes, not daring to look at Tang Xi.
Ling Hui lit the candle and looked at the frightened old man. She could not help but ask, “Grandpa, what are you afraid of?”
Tang Xi did not want to talk nonsense with the old man. He pressed the old man against the wall and raised his eyebrows. “Have you seen this woman before?” Tang Xi took out his phone and flipped to the photo album. There was a photo of Mother Tang when she was alive.
The old man glanced at the photo and his body trembled even more.

The old man’s legs trembled in fear.
“Yes, yes. Don’t touch my hand…” The old man swallowed nervously.” Can I have a cigarette? ”
Tang Xi let go of the old man’s wrist and handed him a cigarette.
The old man used the candle flame to light the cigarette and took a few puffs. He looked at Tang Xi with a dark expression. “You’re that woman’s son?”
Tang Xi raised his eyebrows and did not comment.
The old man sighed. “That year, I was hunting in Mountain Cang and was attacked by wild beasts. I escaped to the top of the mountain, but I was injured at that time and didn’t have the strength to go down the mountain. I lay behind an ancient tree to rest.”
“Not too long later, I saw a beautiful and elegant woman go up the mountain. She stood on the cliff for about half an hour before a man in a suit came up. Because of the distance and my poor hearing, I couldn’t hear what they were saying and only saw them having a fierce argument… Later, I fainted because I lost too much blood. When I woke up, the man and woman were gone, but there was a waterproof bag where I jumped off the cliff.”
“I went over and took out all the valuable jewelry in the waterproof bag.” The old man did not dare to look at Tang Xi’s eyes. “I sold all the valuable jewelry… I only kept a ring I found in the grass…”
Tang Xi’s expression darkened. “Where’s the ring now?”
“I-I’m in my room.”
“Bring it over.”
The old man had used those jewelry to sell for a lot of money. He had bought a house for his son in the city and had never done anything wrong in his life. This matter had always been on his mind.
“Brother, it wasn’t that I left her in the lurch back then. I fainted and when I woke up, your mother was gone. She left behind her jewelry and suicide note. That’s why I got greedy!”
Tang Xi pursed his lips tightly and looked down at the ring in his hand.
That’s right, this was the wedding ring of his mother!
…
The next day, in the detention center.
Fang Ye had come to fetch Tang Xi. After fixing the car, he left Mountain Cang.
Along the way, Ling Hui and Tang Xi remained silent.
Ling Hui still had countless doubts.
The old man said that he had seen Tang Xi’s mother having a fierce argument with a man. Who was that man?
Did Tang Xi’s mother really jump off the cliff?
Tang Xi looked down at the ring in his hand repeatedly.
“Princess.”
Hearing Tang Xi calling her, Ling Hui looked at him.
“Although my mom didn’t like my dad and me, she had always been wearing her wedding ring. If she had a fierce argument with a man at the top of the mountain and then took off her jewelry and put it in her bag, how could this ring have fallen into the grass?”
“It’s not easy to pull a ring out of a person’s finger during an argument. Besides, my mom has been wearing the ring for many years. Even if she wanted to take it off, she would slowly spin it. Otherwise, she would apply it on some lubricant.”
Ling Hui nodded thoughtfully. “Yes, it’s impossible for a ring to fall into the grass unless there’s an identical ring.”
An idea suddenly flashed in Ling Hui’s mind. She seemed to have thought of something and said hurriedly, “Grandpa said that a man in a suit, is it possible that the man was a woman disguised as a man? To put it bluntly, it was Auntie Ping. She bought a ring that was exactly the same as your mother’s and provoked her?”
Tang Xi’s eyes that were looking at the ring darkened. “If I’m not wrong, this ring should be fake. What you said is very likely. Auntie Ping made an identical ring and deliberately ruined my parents’ relationship, causing them to misunderstand each other.”
“We’ll know after we return to the city and check the ring.”

After arriving at the capital.
Tang Xi asked Fang Ye to check the ring and the results were out very quickly.
The ring was indeed fake.
…
At the Tang family’s old residence.
After the family finished dinner, Old Madam Tang looked at Liu Ping, who was massaging her, and liked her daughter-in-law even more.
“Ah Ping, it’s our fortune to be able to find such a good daughter-in-law like you.”
“Old Madam, you flatter me.”
“You’re about to marry into the Tang family, why are you still calling me Old Madam?” Old Madam Tang pretended to be angry and glared at Liu Ping.
Liu Ping immediately changed her words. “Mom.”
Tang Xi and Father Tang were still chatting and drinking in the dining room. Father Tang looked at Tang Xi, who was toasting him glass after glass. “You brat, are you trying to make your father drunk?”
“Dad, you and Auntie Ping are about to register our marriage and become husband and wife. I’m happy for the two of you. I have a mother to love me in the future. Isn’t it worth celebrating?”
Father Tang smiled and nodded. “It’s something worth celebrating!” There was a trace of bitterness in Father Tang’s smile. From an outsider’s point of view, he and Liu Ping were talented and beautiful. They were a match made in heaven, but no one understood his heart. He hated Tang Xi’s biological mother, but without deep love, how could there be extreme hatred?
Unfortunately, that woman’s heart was for him. No matter how good he was to her, she was like a kite in the sky, constantly wanting to break free from his restraints to find the sky and freedom she belonged to.
Father Tang thought about what had happened back then and drank a few more glasses.
Father Tang drank too much and stayed at the old mansion to rest. Liu Ping and Father Tang had not registered their marriage yet, so she could only return to the villa alone.
Recently, the weather in the capital had changed a lot. After Liu Ping returned to the villa to take a bath and sleep, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside again.
She slept in a daze until midnight. Suddenly, she heard someone call her ‘Ah Ping’ and she jolted awake from her sleep.
