Chapter 292: 290 people are doing it, watching the sky (first update)
Xiaofeng listened to the tone of Luo Yuzhu’s voice, smiling like a blooming peach, radiant and striking.
"I don’t know if I have the capability, but I do know that Lin Jianguo should never have targeted me, nor should you have schemed against my brother. I’ve said before, if anything happens to my brother, the Lin Family won’t get off easily."
If it weren’t for her possession of the space, her brother would truly be dead. Her brother’s mind was simple; he was just a pure and innocent child. What had he done wrong? Luo Yuzhu focused on him, even leading to his car accident.
Whether Luo Yuzhu was responsible for the car accident or not, she was undeniably linked to it.
"Su Xiaofeng." Luo Yuzhu felt that Su Xiaofeng must have gone insane. He wasn’t even her real brother, yet Su Xiaofeng was so concerned: "Is this how you treat your mom? Yes, I’m not your mom, but I was the one who picked you up from the hospital. You had the chance to grow up in the Su Family because of me. If not for me, you might have died at the hospital entrance that year."
She shouldn’t have picked her up that year; it was like bringing a white-eyed wolf home, not only ungrateful but also turning against her.
"Speaking of my origins, I want to ask you, how did you switch me that year?" Xiaofeng certainly didn’t believe her; there must be more to the story.
Luo Yuzhu opened her mouth: "Switch? You were abandoned that year, just thrown beside the hospital’s flower bed. If you hadn’t resembled my daughter somewhat, do you think I would have picked you up? I’m telling you the truth, I greatly regret that action now. Knowing now that you are so ungrateful, I should have strangled you the moment I brought you home."
"You didn’t strangle me then, and I doubt you have the chance now," Xiaofeng wasn’t upset: "I’ve heard that Lin Jianguo has had quite a few problems at work. What do you think would happen if I reported these issues to Captain Hong?"
"You think Captain Hong is your man, that he will listen to whatever you say," Luo Yuzhu did not believe that Captain Hong had the reach to intervene in Jianguo’s affairs.
"I don’t know about Captain Hong’s reach, but I do know that Lin Yue was previously guilty of endangering public safety. Lin Jianguo still owes everyone an explanation to this day. If everyone knew that Lin Jianguo had personal ties with several private mine owners back then, I wonder what higher-ups would think?"
Luo Yuzhu’s face changed color: "Su Xiaofeng, what else do you know? Don’t spout nonsense, my Jianguo is completely innocent with them."
"Whether he is innocent or not, I’m not sure, but I’ve heard that your dealings with Boss Dong are not very innocent, and that alone should be enough to trouble Lin Jianguo." That day, when she went to handle some documents, she encountered Old Dong quarreling with his ex-wife, who implied that Dong Wei had an affair with Luo Yuzhu when he was younger.
Whether Luo Yuzhu and Lin Jianguo had a real relationship or not was no longer important; what mattered was that Lin Jianguo now had a good relationship with Dong Wei.
Dong Wei was previously a private mine owner who had made a fortune. His mining operations were successful, and his relationship with Lin Jianguo was good. Once this connection was exposed, without her saying much, naturally, others would start making connections on their own.
"Xiaofeng." Luo Yuzhu did not expect Xiaofeng to use this information to threaten her: "You really know how to threaten me now. What are you trying to do by bringing up Jianguo? If you’re suggesting we should pay for your brother’s treatment, we’ll pay." It was just money, and the Lin Family could afford it.
"I will find out the truth about my brother’s car accident. If it’s the responsibility of the Lin Family, don’t think you can escape even a penny." Xiaofeng looked at Luo Yuzhu: "Tell me, how did you bring me back that year?"
She originally didn’t want to know about her origins; she just wanted to quietly make a living, work hard to provide for her children, and then quietly become wealthy and reach the pinnacle of life.
But some people just didn’t want her to have peace, repeatedly talking about the favor of picking her up. Speaking of favors, some things certainly need to be discussed. If Luo Yuzhu truly had shown her kindness, out of gratitude, she might have been lenient toward Luo Yuzhu.
If not, or if Luo Yuzhu was just a person who stole someone’s child, she had to find out if Luo Yuzhu had indeed stolen her that year.
As for her brother, with Spiritual Energy protecting him, his vital signs wouldn’t be a problem for now. As for his brain, she needed to find a suitable opportunity to intervene.
"I told you many times, you were thrown in the hospital flower bed, alone. I happened upon you, saw you resembled my daughter, and switched you then." That year, when she had taken the child, no one had seen her, and she would deny it to the death.
Xiaofeng looked into her eyes, which flickered, clearly showing her guilt: "Since that’s the case, have you never cared about what happened to your own biological daughter afterward? Where she was thrown away, or if she was buried?" Her own biological daughter, she couldn’t possibly have not cared at all.
Luo Yuzhu had certainly considered that question: whether her daughter had been buried by them or thrown away somewhere, but she herself had swapped someone else’s child, barely daring to look into the matter. Now, hearing Xiaofeng’s question, she said indifferently, "She’s dead, and there’s nothing good to see. At the time, I was solely focused on treating you as my own biological daughter; naturally, I didn’t think too much about it."
"The couple at that time were very young, weren’t they? They weren’t locals, were they?" Xiaofeng suddenly changed the topic.
"Definitely not locals; they looked like they came from a well-off family," Luo Yuzhu replied subconsciously. She wasn’t ignorant of what was happening. When Xiaofeng stared at her silently, her mind seemed uncontrollably active, and some words just came out naturally.
After speaking, Luo Yuzhu quickly changed her statement, "There was indeed a couple that came out of the hospital entrance, but seeing me sitting on the flower bed, they thought that both children were mine. They glanced over briefly and moved past me."
"That’s not what you said last time, you mentioned that the woman seemed to have suddenly fallen ill, and the man by her side, seeing his frail wife getting ill, put the baby he was holding aside to help his sick wife," Xiaofeng said with a slight curl of her lips. "If I’m not mistaken, the moment they put down the child was precisely when you saw them. Once you saw the baby’s appearance, you made a bold decision to switch her baby with yours, and your baby with theirs."
This kind of matter, in truth, was Bella’s deduction without evidence, all evidence needed to be sought from Luo Yuzhu herself, such as her tone, her expression, her inner thoughts.
People who had done bad deeds couldn’t remain peaceful at certain moments.
Listening to Xiaofeng’s words, Luo Yuzhu’s pupils dilated.
She... she...
Her hands continuously clutched at her clothes, her mind endlessly telling herself it was impossible, she had only been a child then, barely remembering anything. All of this was just imagined by her, it was all guesswork, it really explained nothing.
Xiaofeng noticed her incessant fidgeting with her clothes, seeing it all clearly.
The truth of that year might have been exactly as she had just said, Luo Yuzhu took advantage of the situation and swapped the two babies in their swaddles.
One was the original; the other was the biological daughter of Luo Yuzhu and Guaizi.
That is to say, the original would have had her own parents, a loving family, but because of Luo Yuzhu’s actions, she became the daughter of the Su Family. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
After all this, Luo Yuzhu still expected her to thank her; the thought was laughable.
Luo Yuzhu took a deep breath, trying her best to smile benevolently, "Xiaofeng, what are you talking about? How could I possibly do such a thing? By doing so, wouldn’t I have also destroyed another family? Xiaofeng, you are not young anymore, soon to be a mother yourself. You can’t just say whatever comes to mind; acting impulsively, everyone is an adult here, and you should take responsibility for what you say."
"If you speak irresponsibly, you could be legally liable, of course, I won’t take these to heart. I mean, outside, you simply can’t talk this way with people, letting them cling to your mistakes not only brings discredit but also makes you responsible." Luo Yuzhu, of course, wouldn’t admit to what happened that year.
Moreover, she had been discreet about it; nobody saw it, so this matter, only heaven and she knew.
Some things do indeed lack evidence nowadays, but she could confirm some things. Luo Yuzhu’s recent words and expressions clearly told her, she was indeed the child Luo Yuzhu had stolen.
Her biological parents were a couple about whom nothing notable was known.
"You’re right, acting recklessly, especially committing child theft, carries legal responsibility. Luo Yuzhu, don’t think just because no one saw you back then that you are blameless. There’s a saying you must have heard."
"What?" Luo Yuzhu immediately looked up.
"Man acts," Xiaofeng pointed upwards to the sky, "Heaven watches. Do you believe that?"
