Xing Shuf face instantly turned pale. It was a snake, and there was more than one.
The pitch-black environment, strange sounds, and an unknown number of snakes… Xing Shu knew that Chen Ru hated her, but she did not expect Chen Ru t s methods to be so vicious. In the darkness, the sound of the snakes flicking their tongues was infinitely amplified, and the sound of the snakes’ skin rubbing against the ground made one’s scalp tingle.
Xing Shu did not know how much time had passed. She felt that she could not hold on anymore. She did not know how many more snakes would be released into the room. The only thing she could do now was to hug herself and stop herself from listening or thinking.
Outside the door, the bodyguard who had just released the snakes revealed a nasty smile. “Madam, there are still centipedes here. I)o you want to continue releasing them?”
Chen Ru did not have a trace of pity. She wished she could torture Xing Shu thoroughly before anyone discovered her. She nodded. “Continue. Just don’t kill her.”
The bodyguard nodded and let a few more centipedes in.
At Radiant Welfare Home, the lights in the courtyard were bright. It was rare for this place to be so lively. The director—Feng Daxiang—stood at the door. When he saw the two luxury cars outside the door, he was stunned for a moment. The doctor who had been invited was beside him, sorting out the information. This information was about the children in the welfare home—detailing the time of their arrival at the welfare home and the place where Feng Daxiang picked them up from, et cetera. As more and more children came to the welfare home over the years, the information of each child had been sorted into a book and archived.
Feng Daxiang had always been very attentive to the children. Back then, when he saved the information, he would deliberately leave a strand of the children’s hair behind. After all, some of the children here had been abandoned by their parents, while some had gone missing. Parents who had missing children would come to the welfare home with the hope of doing paternity tests.
The welfare home only provided for the children until they reached adulthood. Once they reached adulthood, no one knew what job these children had or where they had gone. Therefore, the hair left behind became a key component for paternity testing. However, the file room suddenly caught fire and the information was damaged. Feng Daxiang had mentioned that Xing Shu had already been found and adopted by the Xing family. It was impossible for her to be the missing princess. However, the other party had said that they would rather test the wrong person than miss out on her. They were very prudent, so he had to contact Xing Shu.
When Feng Daxiang saw Xing Linlin, he smiled. “Linlin, you’re here.” He looked at the person who came with Xing Linlin. She looked a little familiar—but he could not remember—so he nodded politely as a form of greeting. Xing Linlin looked at the doctor over there excitedly. Her fingers began to tremble, and she asked in a low voice, “Director, what information do you need me to add?” The doctor who was still rummaging through the documents raised his head and looked at Xing Linlin. His forehead was covered in sweat, and everyone present was exceptionally nervous. Everyone looked at the doctor, and the doctor’s hand that was rummaging through the documents began to tremble. Xing Linlin’s initial hope had turned into impatience.
Feng Daxiang wanted to ease the tense atmosphere by changing the topic. “The doctor is still busy. He needs to lock down the number of possible people. They’re very prudent and don’t allow any mistakes. However, you and Xing Shu were screened when the Xing family came to look for their missing daughter back then. You two are the most compatible. Xing Shu is the daughter of the Xing family, so you’re the most likely one. By the way, where’s Xing Shu?”
Xing Linlin rolled her eyes in her heart. The last thing she wanted to hear was
Xing Shu’s name. Ifit weren’t for Xing Shu, she wouldn’t have ended up like this! However, she would be able to make a comeback soon! Thank God!
Xing Linlin replied, “I don’t know where Xing Shu is either.”
“Your files have all been destroyed in the fire. I couldn’t contact Xing Shu. I thought she was with you.” Feng Daxiang was a little worried. He whipped out his cell phone and made another call, but no one answered.
Xing Shu’s cell phone was in Chen Ru’s hand When she saw the words ‘Director’ flashing on it, she guessed that it was the director of the welfare home. Was there progress over there? She turned off Xing Shu’s cell phone and used her own cell phone to call Wu Minxia. At the welfare home, the doctor searched for about an hour and finally confirmed that only Xing Shu or Xing Linlin could be the missing girl. The other party requested that as long as it was a girl, she had to do the paternity test regardless of her identity. Now that their information had been destroyed, both of them had to do a paternity test. He pushed up his glasses. “Looks like Xing Shu and Xing Linlin have to do a paternity test..”
