Chapter 945: Chapter 929: Where else to go?
Their family now had no money, no power, nothing, and if anything else went wrong, it would lead to the destruction of the family and loss of lives.
Even to live like this, taking each day as it comes, is better than the complete ruin of the family.
Gao Peng left with the child in his arms, but after a while, he came back.
He actually wanted to ask his father again if they should really leave the child behind, for he couldn’t bear to do it.
And Gao’s father did have one thing right: send the child away now, immediately—the sooner, the better.
The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to let go, and the greater the price they would have to pay in the end surely wouldn’t be small.
Gao’s father still locked himself in the house.
Unable to find anyone else to discuss his dilemma with, Gao Peng clenched his teeth, and in the end, got into his own car.
His car had gone from being a high-end luxury vehicle worth over a million, one that used to prop up his status, all sold off; now he was driving a second-hand car sold by someone else, worth only tens of thousands.
Falling from heaven to Hell felt just like this, and although he had reached Hell, he could not afford to fall into the eighteenth level of Hell.
He placed the child to one side, then took off his own clothes to cover the child.
Setting his heart firmly, he drove forward, and coincidentally, they encountered Gao’s mother returning home on the road.

Gao’s mother had bought a lot of things that seemed to be for the child: bottles, formula, diapers, and some toys.
Struggling alone with all these items was enough to buckle her already slightly stooped back even more, yet she continued walking forward, carrying the heavy load step by step, not knowing that the car she just passed was her son’s.
Gao Peng felt a sourness in his heart.
A lapse in judgment years ago had not only doomed him but also his elderly parents.
He truly could not bring more disaster upon them.
If those people really came for him, he would end up in prison, and his old mother and father would be dragged down with him.
He vigorously wiped his face and continued to drive forward, but where to go, who to turn to?
He truly did not know.
He didn’t even know where Zhang Xiangcao lived; all he knew was that Tang Zhinian had a daughter who was a chief physician at the general hospital.
Yes, that’s where he would go.
Driving his battered car, he made his way towards the general hospital.
At this moment, he was merely a speck in the vastness of the world, just a most ordinary person among the multitude in Beijing.
He once thought he was different because he was born to achieve great things.
Even though he had been sent down to the countryside as an educated youth, hadn’t he eventually become someone superior?
But now he understood.
There is no one in this world who is truly different.
They all have lives that last less than a hundred years, filled with ups and downs, storms and waves that at times cannot be avoided.
He sighed and continued driving towards that place.
Along the way, he could see numerous high-rise buildings on both sides of the road, some already completed, others still under construction.
The development here had become incredibly rapid in just about a year.
He had heard that many of these skyscrapers were built by Tang Zhijun.
Who would have thought that he, once called a prodigy in the village and having married the village beauty, later becoming the director of a factory, thinking his life was complete, would end up with nothing?
Yet Tang Zhijun, who grew up in the soil of the countryside, had now become a nationally known real estate tycoon.
Life is truly unpredictable, with fortunes changing in the blink of an eye.
No one should ever be underestimated.
Gao Peng stopped the car, and fearing surveillance cameras in the area, he parked at a distance.
He then covered his head and wrapped the child in his clothes, carefully choosing back streets to walk down.
Along the way, he didn’t dare to raise his head, fearing that any surveillance footage could be traced back to him.
And he didn’t know which department Tang Yuxin was in, and even if he did, it wasn’t possible for him to brazenly go there and just drop off the child; he was afraid of the police, he was afraid of being caught, and he was most afraid of going to prison.
He had been standing outside for a long time, fearing not only to be recognized but also that the child might wake up.
And he had been standing for nearly an hour, yet he had no idea how to hand the child over to someone.
Or, not to hand her over, carry her back, just say there wasn’t an opportunity.
As he was hesitating, he saw a doctor in a white coat come out, and the other nurses were greeting him as well, suggesting he was a doctor here, too.
Gao Peng hurriedly approached and pulled his mask up a little higher.
“Excuse me, do you know Doctor Tang Yu, is she in the hospital?”
“Doctor Tang has a patient, she’s in right now.”
The doctor pointed upstairs, “She’s on the fifth floor, she should be free now, you just go up to find her.”
“Thank you.”
After thanking the doctor, Gao Peng prepared to head for the fifth floor.
In fact, he had thought about giving the child to the doctor just now, letting him return her to Tang Yuxin, but this was not an object; it was a person.
Many people might already know that the child was missing, and what if this doctor was the cautious type and thought he was selling the child and had him arrested?
This was not his turf; this was the hospital, a place he was unfamiliar with.
He really couldn’t take any risks.
He did as the doctor advised and climbed to the fifth floor himself.
He didn’t dare use the elevator; the cameras inside were very clear, and it was easy to be recognized.
Although he was here to return the child, he couldn’t deny that he had been the one to take her away.
Carrying the child, he climbed to the fifth floor, his arms and legs tired, and overweight, he felt like he was about to run out of breath just climbing one story, let alone the fifth floor.
The doctor had said Tang Yuxin’s office was upstairs.
He searched room by room; it was quite easy to find because there were not many doctors on this floor, maybe just three or four, and they all had private offices.
So young and already doing so well, her intelligence was truly extraordinary.

Gao Peng remembered the appearance of the Tang Family brothers in the past.
Back then, they were both country bumpkins, among the poorest in the village, and without parents.
Getting married cost them everything, and that Sang Zhilan had a pair of frivolous eyes—one look and you could tell she was no good.
At that time, the Tang brothers were really the lowest in the village.
They were poor and not too smart, especially Tang Zhinian, who was just a big, dumb guy.
Other than tirelessly digging in the fields, he couldn’t do anything else.
With his character, he was likely condemned to toil away on the land for a lifetime, planting crops year after year, and his daughter Tang Yuxin didn’t seem to be particularly intelligent either.
