Chapter 362: Another Visit To the Ouyang Family
Shen Xiaoxiao did not dare to agree with Yan Kuan’s bold guess. Although it had been more than 20 years since Father Shen’s death, she clearly remembered that she had seen Father Shen’s body with her own eyes. At that time, Father Shen had died in a car accident. Gu Yuehua did not even dare to look at the body when she identified it. It was Third Uncle who had brought her to take a look.
There was a red rouge mole on the back of Father Shen’s neck. In the middle of her neck, Shen Xiaoxiao also had one. It should be said that the people of the Shen family all had a mole in that position. Therefore, she remembered clearly that that person was her father. If her father was not dead, it would definitely not make sense.
No matter how cruel he was, after seeing Gu Yuehua sell her, would he not stand up for his daughter?
Even Third Uncle had been looking for her abroad for more than ten years. If Father Shen hadn’t died, would he have turned a blind eye to Shen Xiaoxiao?
Moreover, in this life, she had changed her fate because of her rebirth. In her previous life, she had been sent to be a prost.i.tute for three years. If Father Shen had been around, he would definitely not have stood by and watched those three years of inhuman torture.
Therefore, Shen Xiaoxiao did not think that Yan Kuan’s guess was correct.
“Back then, when Father died in a car accident, Gu Yuehua did not even dare to identify the body. It was me and Third Uncle who went. Even though it was many years ago, I still remember it clearly. I even saw Father being pushed into the crematorium’s furnace with my own eyes. Therefore, I think that rather than saying that the person might be my father, it’s more accurate to say that the person might be Third Uncle.”
When Yan Kuan heard what Shen Xiaoxiao said, he was also a little confused. He guessed that the man in black was a member of the Shen family because all the signs of the man in black indicated that the thing he wanted was the secret fund treasure of the Shen family. If Ouyang Tian was not the one who paid attention to the Shen family, then there was an 80% chance that it was a member of the Shen family.
This was because only the Shen family would know that the Black Ganoderma had to be cut with a knife. Not only that, the Black Ganoderma had mysteriously disappeared after Shen Jinwen pa.s.sed away, and it had wandered abroad. Coincidentally, it had been discovered by Shen Xiaoxiao. In this series of events, he had always felt that there was a black hand behind all of this. That was why he had broadened his vision and guessed the possible candidate to a greater extent.
“Third Uncle is impossible, and Xiaoxiao, I hope that you are mentally prepared. If Third Uncle was made into a clone, then it is very likely that he himself…”
Shen Xiaoxiao remained silent as she listened to Yan Kuan’s words. She had already guessed that Third Uncle was a fake when she found out earlier. It was just that she found it difficult to accept it emotionally for a moment. But she knew it intellectually, Third Uncle might really have been taken advantage of.
“No matter what, I want to see him if he’s alive, and I want to see his corpse if he dies.”
Yan Kuan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s appearance and did not say anything more. He understood that for Shen Xiaoxiao, her feelings for Third Uncle were definitely higher than all the members of the Shen family. Even Old Master Shen and Father Shen, who had pa.s.sed away, might not be able to compare to him.
He was also grateful to that old man. To be able to persevere in his search for Xiaoxiao overseas for so many years and never give up, he felt that such a person was worth thinking about for the rest of Xiaoxiao’s life.
“Don’t worry. My people have been searching all this time. They want to see person whether he’s alive or dead. But Xiaoxiao, you have to think carefully. Who else is in the Shen family in your memories? You have to think carefully about anyone who has a trace of kins.h.i.+p within five generations. Even the servants who used to be servants in your family cannot be left out.”
Yan Kuan had investigated the Shen family before, but the Shen family was too clean and simple. From the generation of Old Master Shen, there had only been one. The only clan brother was a fool. Other than a huge clan, the Shen family… There was no one else.
Everyone in the village had been investigated by Yan Kuan. They were all very ordinary. Even if there were a few descendants who worked in the Shen Enterprise, they were all chased away by Gu Yuehua, the person who controlled the company after Old Master Shen’s death. Therefore… Yan Kuan really did not know if the Shen family still had any relatives.
Shen Xiaoxiao naturally knew what Yan Kuan meant. However, the Shen family’s relatives were from the time she could remember. The population of the Shen family was dwindling. The only old relatives who could move around were probably the old people in the village.
Moreover, whether it was Shen Xiaoxiao who had been kidnapped and sold abroad for more than ten years or Third Uncle who had been looking for her abroad for more than ten years, they did not have much contact with the people in the village, except for the village chief and the old granny who helped them to look after the old house. The Shen family was really innocent.
“There really isn’t. The Shen family’s population is dwindling. This is also why Gu Yuehua and Liu Qianmin were able to plot against my father and grandfather. If our family had a large population, it would not be so easy to plot against our family and destroy them.”
“Sigh, then we can only take it one step at a time. Tonight, I will visit the Ouyang family’s Forbidden Area. The route map has been prepared. I will go there as soon as possible. You can rest at home.”
“What? You want to go to the Ouyang family again?”
Shen Xiaoxiao was afraid and hated the Ouyang family. In fact, she didn’t want Yan Kuan to go to the Ouyang family. However, she knew Yan Kuan’s stubbornness, especially after that dream. She knew even more clearly that Yan Kuan wanted to find the real Ouyang Jinling, the one lying in the crystal coffin with the Suoyin Flower Tears, and did not move at all.
She could not stop or stop him. The only thing she could do was to hope that he could return safely.
“Good girl, don’t worry. This time, I will go through the secret pa.s.sage. The place has been completely cleared out. Nothing will happen. Previously, the secret pa.s.sage was blocked. During this period of time, Dark 1 has been sending people to clear it in the dark. We will not be discovered by anyone this time.”
“I know I can’t advise you, but I hope you can be careful. If she can’t be saved, don’t be anxious. You can always think of a way.”
Yan Kuan raised his eyebrows as he looked at Shen Xiaoxiao. Why did he feel that she seemed to know something?
“What do you know?”
Shen Xiaoxiao knew that Yan Kuan was extremely sharp and could easily sense that something was wrong, so she did not hesitate and said directly:
“There is only one house in the entire Forbidden Area. There are a total of two floors there. The person you are looking for should be on the second floor. However, it is not easy to enter that house. There is a bamboo forest outside the house. Moreover, there are death warriors hiding in the bamboo forest. There are traps everywhere. Regardless of where the secret tunnels lead to, you have to be extra careful to avoid the attention of those death warriors.”
“Little thing, you know so much. It’s as if you’ve been there yourself. Are you hiding something from me?”
Shen Xiaoxiao sighed. If she wasn’t afraid of Yan Kuan’s accident, she wouldn’t have said these things.
“Don’t worry about how I know. I’ve never been to the Forbidden Area, but my information is absolutely reliable. Please allow me to have my own secrets. There are some secrets that I don’t want to say right now, but I will never harm my husband. Don’t you believe this?”
Yan Kuan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao for a long time before saying, “In the future, I will also have secrets that I won’t tell you.”
Shen Xiaoxiao absolutely did not expect Yan Kuan to say such a childish thing. It was really funny and infuriating. How did this person become so cute?
