After The System Punished Me to Give Birth

Chapter 49

Su Jingyang looked at him for a long time and suddenly pulled the stool towards him, sitting in front of Rong Ci, blinking his eyes, curiously asking: "Rong Ci, you... can you tell me what your father owes Mrs Ru? Why could he tolerate her giving birth to another person's child? She tried to kill you, yet he also forgave her."

Rong Ci's eyes paused quietly for a moment, and he did not answer. Su Jingyang waved his hand: "Forget it if it's inconvenient to say."

"There's nothing I can't say to you." Rong Ci touched his face and sighed lightly, he then said: "To tell the truth, my father is a duo. He gave birth to me with my other father."

Su Jingyang's eyes widened, this... was really unexpected.

"Because the patriarch's ability is much stronger than duo or women, we can better supplement the energy of Wuqun Mountain, so for the past two hundred years, the seat of the City Lord had always been passed on to men. However, my grandfather only had one child, that is, my father. He worried about him and knew that his succession to the throne would cause dissatisfaction and turmoil among the people, so he used the excuse of practising poisons and asked him to wear gloves ever since he was a child, covering up the mole on the palm of his hand. Later, my father became pregnant with me and married Mrs Ru to trick people's eyes and ears."

I see! Su Jingyang asked: "Does she know?"

"Naturally, she agreed to be the City Lord's wife and negotiated with my father. She wanted to have a child of her own and my father agreed, but she had to wait for me to turn ten years old before she could give birth. She made a blood oath with my father that she won't reveal this secret in her lifetime, otherwise, she'll die instantaneously." 

Su Jingyang finally understood completely, he frowned and thought for a moment, "But looking at it, their transactions benefitted each party, why does your dad feel that he owes her? And she even wants to kill you, obviously she wants her son... wait, wait, wait, wait!!!"

Su Jingyang suddenly felt that something was wrong. He patted his head suddenly, and after thinking about it, he stared at Rong Ci and asked: "You just said that your father used the arts of poison as an excuse to wear gloves to cover the mole on the palm of his hand since he was a child..."

This mode of operation is so familiar! ! !

Su Jingyang took a breath, "Could it be that Rong Hua's not a she? ? ?"

Rong Ci flicked his forehead, and smiled: "You figured it out just now?"

Su Jingyang looked incredulous, "My mother." He was deceived for so long! ! !

Su Jingyang wanted to think back on it but still couldn't find any flaws in Rong Hua's performance. Some duo's Adam's apples were rather vague, and Rong Hua happened to be one of them. In addition, his voice was indistinguishable from male and female, which made it difficult for people's suspicions to arise. The most important thing is that... he's a beauty with big breasts! How could this be faked! Su Jingyang's admiration for Rong Hua rose a little bit!

After listening to logic and science, Su Jingyang knew the reason why Rong Hua had to pretend to be a woman—because the saint of the Rong clan was the child to be born at the exact time the Grand Wizard had calculated. But Rong Hua, the heavenly saint girl, turned out to be a duo. The wizard repeated his calculations several times, but the designated person was no other than Rong Hua. They had no time to worry, so Rong Hua was taken into the palace and treated as a female. The child was raised and disguised through the Old City Lord's methods.

Su Jingyang could only sigh: "It's so difficult being a duo. You have to pretend to be either a man or a woman. According to what you said, Rong Hua should also know your father's secret?"
