Chapter 486: Chapter 487: Everything Starts Over Again…
Old Gao’s tone was usually mild.
But Xia Yangyang felt deeply moved even by his brief introduction.
Those people were truly extraordinary beings.
They were just like the high-ranking figures from the magical sects mentioned in a wuxia novel that she had read previously.
Although they were not from orthodox sects, they had their own specialties, and they were all extremely powerful.
Old Gao sighed, “Yangyang, you might not believe it if I say you look like an old friend of mine when I was young. I didn’t treat this friend well. Seeing you now, I feel the need to make it up to him, maybe it’s fate.”
Xia Yangyang chuckled lightly, “I consider it as my good fortune. Godfather, you’ve saved me from perils over and over again, twice even saving my life. I’m truly grateful.”
“Silly little girl,” Old Gao reached out and ruffled Xia Yangyang’s hair. “I know what has been happening to you. So, what’s your plan now?”
Xia Yangyang had been making headlines recently.
So, she didn’t find it strange that her godfather knew about her situation and recent events.
Xia Yangyang’s mind is in quite a mess at the moment.
She was distracted by Old Gao’s peculiar identity and the extraordinary people around him, which made her momentarily forget her predicament.
After a moment’s thought, Xia Yangyang suddenly spoke, “Godfather, can you take me with you?”
Xia Yangyang herself didn’t even know why she said that.
But what else is worth staying for in this city now?
She had no choice but to leave now.
But she had no idea where to go.
Now, all she wanted was to go somewhere no one could find, to give birth to her baby safely.
She didn’t want to consider anything else, nor think about anything.
There were simply too many manipulations and betrayals here.
If today it is Xia Weiwei, who knows who will be next tomorrow!
Xia Yangyang didn’t know why she asked her godfather either.
Knowing how complicated his background is.
But Xia Yangyang seemed to have an inexplicable trust in him.
Just like Old Gao said, she felt safe at first sight of him.
Xia Yangyang instinctively felt that Old Gao wouldn’t harm her.
Old Gao didn’t say a word, just patted Xia Yangyang’s shoulder, “Get a good night’s sleep here tonight. I’ll take you away tomorrow. From here on out, nobody will dare to bully or harm you. You’ll be able to give birth to your baby peacefully. I’ll guarantee his safety for the rest of his life.”
Xia Yangyang was somewhat taken aback.
So godfather knew about her pregnancy.
A secret known only to her and Wen Xiaochu.
How did godfather find out?
But as the ruler of the underworld, his influence reached everywhere.
If he truly wanted to know, it probably wouldn’t be difficult.
Yangyang was tired and didn’t want to think too much.
She had barely escaped death tonight.
Moreover, she couldn’t shake off the vision of Xia Weiwei’s blood-stained face and malicious stare.
Xia Yangyang forced herself to stop thinking about it.
She went into her room to rest.
At that time, Xia Yangyang was merely looking for a safe haven.
After losing everything she had.
Xia Yangyang followed Old Gao to San Francisco.
Latterly, she somehow ended up in Manhattan.
But Xia Yangyang had never imagined.
That she ended up staying there for four years.
A lot happened during those four years.
Xia Ye was born, and Xia Yangyang found a job.
She managed to rent a high-end apartment on her own income.
It was as if she had cut off ties with her past completely, severing everything that reminded her of the past.
The environment she was in and the people she met had all undergone drastic changes.
When she arrived in America, she left her old phone back at Maple Villa.
Xia Yangyang also broke all ties with the people from her past.
Everything began anew…
