Shen Yi Di Nu, Divine Doctor: Daughter of The First Wife

Severing Ties

Her voice was ice-cold and did not carry a trace of feeling. Her eyes were also empty and indifferent. She looked at Yao shi but it was as if she was not looking at anything. The current Yao shi was nothing more than a stranger to Feng Yu Heng. There was no intimacy. There were not even any feelings. There was nothing but loathing and regret.

“Let go with your hands.” Feng Yu Heng’s voice was like a devil’s curse and was said in a commanding tone. It caused Yao shi to subconsciously obey, as she lowered her hands. She only managed to react when her hands had reached her sides. Why did she listen to Feng Yu Heng? However, Feng Yu Heng continued to speak: “Just now, you grabbed my neck in a dangerous spot, and I have all the reason in the world to report you for attempted murder.” She spoke calmly and reasonably as if stating the situation.

But Yao shi could not understand. Earlier, she had been frightened by Feng Yu Heng giving Fu Ya a beating. Now, she was given a fright by Feng Yu Heng’s words. Attempted murder? What was considered attempted murder? She had just grabbed Feng Yu Heng’s neck. How could this be considered attempted murder?

At this time, Xuan Tian Hua added to what Feng Yu Heng had said: “Lady Yao, if it was not for imperial daughter stopping it in time, you would have choked her to death. This would be considered attempted murder.”

“I did not!” Yao shi took a step back, saying in shock: “How could I possibly have the ability to strangle her to death? She is Imperial Daughter Ji An, and I am just a powerless woman. How could I possibly choke her to death?” Yao shi’s gaze gradually became fiercer, “I really want to choke her to death. Only with her death can darling daughter be with me without any barriers. If she does not die, all of this will continue forever, and my daughter will never return.”

Yao shi was on the verge of mental collapse. At her feet, Fu Ya partially stood up and held Yao shi’s calf. She quietly called out: “Mother, mother, you must not get angry. It’s all daughter’s fault for not being able to protect mother.”

The word mother softened Yao shi’s heart once more. She sat on the ground and held Fu Ya. The two cried while comforting each other. In an instant, it caused Feng Yu Heng to recall the time that they had spent in the mountain village in the Northwest. Yao shi did not know how to make food, and for the sake of making food for the two children, she ended up burning the kitchen in an accident. At that time, she had also held her while crying like this, while they comforted each other. In just a few years time, it had ended up like this.

“Yao shi.” Feng Yu Heng’s voice was filled with anger, “In truth, I don’t understand why you refuse to acknowledge me. If you insist that I am not your daughter, if it was just this one thought, and you only wanted your former daughter that you could survive with, the Feng Yu Heng that was like you in having no ability to protect herself, you should be investigating the truth of the situation? You should investigate why your daughter suddenly changed and was suddenly no longer your daughter. I know medicine, and my abilities are even better than grandfather’s. My medical ability could not possibly have been taught elsewhere. I also know martial arts. It would be impossible to have learned such amazing martial arts in just three years. Even if you suspected these things, why did you not investigate? You never even investigated me before refusing to acknowledge me, so why did you acknowledge her so easily?” She pointed at Fu Ya with a trembling hand, “If I am not your daughter, will she definitely be? Do you not have the slightest bit of suspicion toward her?”

Faced with Feng Yu heng’s questioning, Yao shi replied very naturally: “That’s right, I don’t have the slightest doubts about her. She is my daughter and is definitely authentic! And you are not.”
