Chapter 59: Return To the Country, It’s Her?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“All the surveillance cameras have fallen out. We only saw a video of a young lady entering the bathroom. We didn’t see her come out.”
The hidden guard reported the news to Yan Kuan. No one dared to look at Yan Kuan’s expression now. It was as cold as an ice cellar, making everyone unable to accept it.
Yan Kuan fumbled around with the bracelet he had found at the rubbish dump, deep in thought.
‘Lin Weiwei, you’re really something. You’d rather crush the bones of your own hand than be my woman. Am I really that annoying? What a ruthless woman, to actually do something to me.’
d.a.m.n it, this was the first and last woman who had successfully provoked his anger. He couldn’t let go. He definitely couldn’t let go of this immature little b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
Even if he had to dig three feet into the ground and turn the world upside down, he would find her and teach her a lesson.
“Bring me the surveillance footage from the parking lot. Also, search all the major stations and airports. Pay attention to the woman with a problem on her left hand. Find her as soon as possible.”
Ten minutes later, Yan Kuan looked at the woman in the video who drove away from the parking lot with ease, and his face became even uglier.
Sure enough, he did not understand this little thing at all. It was beyond his expectations. Makeup, driving, what else could she not know?
Where did a girl who had been imprisoned since she was young learn all this?
“Bring the previous information over. Where’s the photo? Did you send the photo?”
“It’s already sent over. It’s on your computer, but the image is a little blurry. The rough outline is somewhat similar to Miss.”
“Go down and find what I want as soon as possible!”
“Yes!”
Turning on the computer, the person in the photo was indeed blurry. However, looking at the figure and outline, it was somewhat similar to the little thing. Could this really be the little thing?
Then, could she possibly return to China?
That’s not right. He shouldn’t doubt the little thing’s ability anymore. Other than not being very good at speaking, she was almost no different from a normal person. No, she should be even more powerful than a normal person. Perhaps she might have already returned to China at this moment.
This recognition actually gave Yan Kuan a momentary sense of excitement. She had taken his things, and now she had secretly run away. It looked like he needed to return to China ahead of time.
“Has Qian Weitang’s account pa.s.sword been cracked? Is there anything in it that we’re looking for?”
“Boss, it’s been cracked. The Ouyang family was indeed involved in that matter!”
“Alright, get ready immediately. We’ll be in China in three days. It’s time for us to gather our old acquaintances…”
…
If one really counted, it had been more than ten years since Shen Xiaoxiao had stepped onto the streets of Jingdou. The night of heavy snow covered this world of countless darkness in a layer of white.
And how many things were hidden by the pure white on the surface?
When the lanterns lit up, the young girl walking on the road facing the wind and snow, her pure and clean face seemed to have a kind of cleanness that washed away the lead. She strolled through the night of heavy snow.
The neon lights flickered. What kind of uneasiness was hidden inside?
However, at this moment, when even her vision was blurred, Shen Xiaoxiao felt that everyone was satisfied.
At least at this moment, she had enjoyed freedom. She had enjoyed freedom that she had not enjoyed for many years.
At a certain high-cla.s.s apartment…
Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock, knock!
“Third Uncle, I’m back.”
When the door opened, Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart relaxed a little when she saw the biggest smile on Third Uncle’s anxious face, which was wearing an ap.r.o.n, the moment the door opened.
“It’s good that you’re back. It’s good that you’re back. Hurry up and come in. Hurry up and come in. The snow today is unusually heavy. I thought that the plane would be delayed. You didn’t use your phone either.
“Quick, give me your bag. Go take a hot bath and I’ll make chicken soup for you. You must be hungry. It’s been so many years since you’ve eaten Third Uncle’s cooking. I’ve been stewing this chicken soup for four hours. Your favorite cuttlefish chicken soup when you were young…”
Before she could put down her things, she heard Third Uncle nagging incessantly. Shen Xiaoxiao had never felt this kind of feeling before in her previous life.
Unknowingly, her Third Uncle was already approaching 55 years old. He was old, and the white hair on his head had already taken up more than half of his hair. Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was filled with sadness and bitterness.
She wondered what kind of mentality her Third Uncle had in his previous life when he found out that he had found an ingrate?
The mocking smile on his face when he pa.s.sed away in her previous life was actually so different and dazzling compared to now. Her previous life was really an extremely laughable joke.
“That’s right. How many years has it been since I’ve tasted Third Uncle’s chicken soup? Today, I want to have a good taste of Third Uncle’s cooking.”
Shen Xiaoxiao smiled as she walked in and handed the bag in her hand directly to him. Shen Jinwen took it casually, but he was surprised to see her wrapped left hand. He asked with extreme worry, “What happened to your hand?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at her left hand. It had been more than half a month and it had recovered very quickly. It was not a big deal. Shen Xiaoxiao said directly, “I’m fine. I fell. I’ll be fine in a few days.”
Shen Jinwen’s expression changed slightly. He knew that Xiaoxiao must have many secrets that were inconvenient to tell him. Seeing her like this, Shen Jinwen’s heart felt as bitter as if he had swallowed a yellow lotus.
He did not dare to expose her. She had suffered enough at such a young age. How could he bear to tear open her wound and turn her into a b.l.o.o.d.y mess? He could only say with a heavy heart, “You child, you’ve been so rash since you were young. You’re still like this even after you’ve grown up. Tomorrow, I’ll bring you to an old orthopedic traditional Chinese medicine doctor to have a look. Don’t leave behind any roots of illness when you’re young!”
“I know. Don’t worry, Third Uncle. I’m hungry. Let’s eat first!”
“Little gluttonous cat, Alright, let’s eat, let’s eat!”
The dishes on the table were sumptuous and delicious. They were all Shen Xiaoxiao’s favorite dishes from when she was young. She could no longer name many of the dishes now, but she could still taste those tastes in one bite even after decades.
Just when Shen Xiaoxiao was concentrating on tasting the delicious dishes, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Xiaoxiao and Shen Jinwen looked at each other. Who would come to this place at this time?
Third Uncle turned to Shen Xiaoxiao and said, “I’ll open the door. Do you want to go into the room and hide?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the chicken soup in front of her and shook her head.
“No need. No one can recognize me. Have you forgotten? The information you asked someone to do for me? That is real information about Lin Weiwei. I’m Lin Weiwei now, not Shen Xiaoxiao.”
Shen Jinwen felt even more bitter when he heard these words. This child had really suffered a great deal to be so sensible, so meticulous, and well-rounded!
“Alright, Third Uncle, it’s only temporary. Sooner or later, I will return to being Shen Xiaoxiao in the open, and use my ident.i.ty as the sole heir of the Shen family to get back everything that we deserve.”
Shen Jinwen glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao, who was so determined, and did not say anything more. Instead, he walked towards the door.
The moment the door opened, a woman’s voice, which had been recalled many times in his memory and hated him to the core, was heard from the door.
“Third Brother, I heard that you brought back a girl. Did you find our Xiaoxiao?”
