"It's time to call it a day. Thank you both teachers for your hard work."

The staff member in charge of this closing shot came over and said, "It's already noon, what would you two teachers like to eat?"

"Thank you, we can just go out to eat."

After the shooting, the first thing Gu Yanshen did was to take off his scarf. He didn't like wearing scarves very much. Unless it was required for work, and as long as the temperature was within his tolerable range, he would refuse to wear it.

The staff member smiled with an ambiguous smile on his face. "Okay, then I won't bother you two teachers. Thank you, teachers. It's a pleasure to work with you."

Lu Wenxing held a cup of hot milk tea and asked with a smile, "Teacher Gu, do you want to treat me to a meal?"

"What do you want to eat?"

Gu Yanshen took a step forward and naturally raised his hand to help Lu Wenxing smooth down her curled hair.

His sudden action made Lu Wenxing stunned for a moment. He blinked and said a little late, "Thank you."

The two went to a private kitchen that served Chinese food. There were quite a lot of foreigners eating there.

They chose a seat in a corner. After several dinner appointments, Gu Yanshen was already familiar with Lu Wenxing's appetite. After he ordered the dishes, he glanced at Lu Wenxing again, "Do you want anything else to eat?"

"This is it for now. If it's not enough, order more."

Because they were in Country K and it was not the peak tourist season, they did not meet many Chinese people along the way, so Lu Wenxing did not wear a mask. After dinner, they went shopping in the mall. Lu Wenxing planned to bring some gifts for his family and friends, and Gu Yanshen took the initiative to accompany him because he had nothing to do.

"Teacher Gu, does this scarf look good?"

Lu Wenxing was holding a gray scarf in his hand. Wen Huaihe and Wen Zheng both wore suits to work, and this color was easy to match.

"This one looks good too." Gu Yanshen showed Lu Wenxing the dark blue scarf on the display stand.

"Buy them all." Lu Wenxing said generously.

Passing by the glass counter, Lu Wenxing's eyes fell on an exquisite cufflink that caught his gaze for a few seconds longer. The cufflink was placed in the center, distinguishing it from the other two rows of cufflinks.

Looking at the price, it is approximately eight million RMB.

Lu Wenxing withdrew his gaze in an instant, then walked past the counter with an expressionless face and walked towards the cashier.

The gifts for Wen Huaihe and Wen Zheng have been bought, and the first choice for Ji Yuan is still jewelry.

Lu Wenxing had a clear purpose. After picking out what he wanted and paying, he left and headed to the next destination.

"Ahhhh!! It's a star."

As soon as Lu Wenxing came out of the jewelry store, he met two girls who were traveling to Country K together. Their faces were full of surprise and disbelief.

The girl screamed and quickly covered her mouth. She looked around and was relieved to see that no one was paying attention to her.

"Sorry, I'm too excited." The girl couldn't hide her surprise and hugged her best friend. "I actually saw stars. Ahhhh, I'm so happy."

Lu Wenxing smiled and said, "Want to take a photo?"

The girl was stunned for a second, the surprise in her eyes almost overflowing, and there was a hint of disbelief in her tone.

"Can I?"

"Yes, I want to take a photo."

Without waiting for Lu Wenxing to answer, the girl spoke again hurriedly, fearing that she would miss the opportunity to take a photo with her idol if she was even a second late.

"Baby, help me get it." The girl put the skewers in her hand into the paper bucket and handed it to her best friend.

"Me, I want to take a picture too."

"Um..." The bestie glanced at Gu Yanshen who was standing aside without saying anything, "Brother Shen, can we come together?"

Lu Wenxing looked up, and Gu Yanshen said without hesitation, "Okay."

After the four of them took a group photo, Lu Wenxing blinked and asked, "I want to know... where did you buy this skewer of meat?"

The girl was stunned for a second and pointed the way to Lu Wenxing.

"Thanks."

Gu Yanshen took Lu Wenxing away, and the girl looked at their backs with excitement as they left.

"Ahhhhhhhh, I actually saw... stars. And took pictures. Ahhh, I'm dead." The girl hugged her bestie and jumped happily on the spot.

"Are you happy?"

"I always thought I was a poor person, but I never thought I would be so lucky!" The girl hugged her best friend and kissed her, "Thank you for bringing me to Country K. I love you."

Lu Wenxing and Gu Yanshen returned to the hotel after leaving the mall. Chen Che had already packed his luggage and was ready to go to the airport.

"Then Mr. Gu, I'm leaving first."

Gu Yanshen said 'hmm', "Xingxing, see you in China."

"Okay, goodbye, Teacher Gu."

After dinner, Wen Zheng returned home. At this time, Ji Yuan and Wen Huaihe were sitting in the living room watching TV.

"Xiao Zheng is back."

Wen Zheng responded, his face looked a little heavy. Ji Yuan looked at him suspiciously, "What happened?"

"I have something to tell you."

Wen Zheng looked up at the second floor after he finished speaking. Ji Yuan knew he was looking for Lu Wenxing and explained, "Xingxing hasn't come back yet. He went out to play with his classmates."

Wen Huaihe put down the orange in his hand and looked over.

"Something about the stars?"

"Um."

Ji Yuan immediately became nervous. Wen Zheng took out a stack of information from his bag, placed it on the table, and went straight to the point.

"This is why we've spent so much time, energy and money and still can't find the stars."

Ji Yuan was startled and picked up the report and materials on the table.

"The blood sample collected by Xingxing was swapped."

As soon as Wen Zheng said this, Wen Huaihe's expression instantly darkened.

Lu Wenxing got lost in kindergarten.

During that time, Ji Yuan was busy with a new product launch. During the day, she would first send Lu Wenxing to kindergarten before driving to the company. But at night, she sometimes worked overtime and might not be able to pick him up on time. Therefore, the family specially hired a nanny, and when Ji Yuan was busy at work, they would ask the driver to drive the nanny to pick up Xingxing.

On the day Xingxing disappeared, the driver had a minor car accident on the road and was delayed for some time. When the nanny arrived at the kindergarten, she discovered that Xingxing was missing.

There were surveillance cameras only on the second floor of the kindergarten, and Xingxing and his classmates were captured going down to the first floor. However, there were no surveillance cameras on the first floor, and the teacher on duty did not notice whether Xingxing walked out of the gate.

The nanny called the police immediately and then contacted them.

It was unpredictable that the driver would get into a minor car accident, but Ji Yuan fell into deep self-blame and took all the blame on herself.

There was a time when Ji Yuan thought she was a irresponsible mother, especially when she saw other mothers picking up their children from school, Ji Yuan would feel particularly regretful.

If she had gone there that day, this wouldn't have happened. But Ji Yuan couldn't put the blame on the driver or the nanny.

The nanny and the driver always leave home on time and wait at the kindergarten gate in advance every time. Car accidents are unpredictable, and the nanny could not have imagined that the stars would disappear due to delays on the road.

"Aunt Lu said that after Xingxing recovered, they took him to the police station to register as soon as possible. At that time, the public security system was not as complete and advanced as it is now, but blood samples were still required."

In the past, City B was just a small county town, not so perfect in all aspects. Unlike now, we can directly go to the DNA laboratory of the Criminal Investigation Brigade to collect blood samples.

Lu Xiaofei took Lu Wenxing to a private hospital in a small county town to collect blood samples, which were then transferred from the hospital to the police station in the village. Mistakes could occur during the process of submission.

"I am more inclined to believe that the blood sample was swapped in the hospital."

Ji Yuan held the report tightly in his hand. Wen Huaihe's face looked terribly gloomy.

No wonder both sides were looking for it but couldn't find it. The blood samples were swapped, how could they be found?

"Also, the foster parents before us were the staff of the welfare home back then."

Wen Zheng and Wen Huaihe had mentioned this matter. The adoptive parents were also sent to the police station. Ji Yuan knew about this, but if the problem was not only with the couple...

"Do other people in the welfare home have problems too?" Ji Yuan was stunned.

The one who was most enthusiastic about charity was Ji Yuan. She loved children very much and couldn't bear to see them suffer. When she learned that the children in the welfare home lived in a bad environment, her first thought was to rebuild the welfare home and provide material and financial assistance.

Is it really because of her that Xingxing suffered?

Ji Yuan's thoughts were in a mess, and she suddenly felt a pain in her heart, as if a needle was piercing her heart, which she couldn't pull out but was painful.

Wen Huaihe stroked Ji Yuan's chest and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Listen to what Xiao Zheng has to say."

Whenever Xingxing was involved, Ji Yuan would always push the problem onto herself, and it had been like this for so many years. Wen Zheng originally thought that after Xingxing was found, Ji Yuan's knot would be untied.

But in fact, Ji Yuan has not gotten over what happened that year at all. She is still afraid. It has been more than a year since Xingxing was recognized and brought home. Only Wen Huaihe knows that Ji Yuan is still occasionally awakened by nightmares.

"Xingxing participated in a painting competition in high school, but someone impersonated her and almost took away her admission."

Wen Zheng didn't want to take credit for Gu Yanshen, but the fact was that Gu Yanshen had made a lot of efforts, and there was no need for Wen Zheng to hide it.

"Impersonation is illegal. Not only will it affect your future career, but in serious cases you may be sentenced. The boy who replaced Xingxing has good grades in school. Even if he doesn't take the art exam, he can still go to a good university."

Wen Huaihe understood what Wen Zheng meant. A high school student knew the law and did not need to take such a risk. But if someone induced or instigated him, it would be another matter.

"The boy's father was a truck driver. He injured his leg after a car accident and needed money urgently. At this time, someone helped him advance the medical expenses and saved his father's leg. In exchange, he agreed to a condition of that person."

"I asked Gu Yanshen to send a few audio clips to that boy..."

Wen Zheng clicked on a recording.

It begins with the audio file sent by Wen Zheng, in which another boy’s voice can be heard.

"That was the voice. I couldn't remember it wrongly. He was wearing a mask and a hat. I was alone and helpless at the time. Although I really hoped he could help me, I was also worried that he was a scammer. He didn't show his face, so I made a special effort to remember his voice."

Ji Yuan's face was completely drained of color. Her nails accidentally dug into her palms, and her lips trembled slightly. "Wen Yu?"

Wen Huaihe was not as surprised as Ji Yuan, but he was also shocked. Because of Wen Zheng's caution, Wen Huaihe was also cautious, but he never thought that Wen Yu could be so bad.

It was obvious that Wen Yu had known for a long time that Lu Wenxing was Xingxing, and without them knowing, Wen Yu had been paying attention to Xingxing's every move.

It is not difficult to guess the reason for finding someone to replace Lu Wenxing, because Xingxing is attending high school in City C, and Wen Yu did this in order to get Lu Wenxing to leave City C.

"besides."

Wen Zheng pushed up the information that was at the bottom, "Before, Xingxing and Wen Yu were both contracted artists of Mango Entertainment."

They knew about this matter. When Wen Yu learned that Xingxing had returned home, he was very surprised and acted as if he had no idea.

But considering the previous decision of finding someone to replace someone, Wen Yu's subsequent behavior seemed very deliberate.

"Xingxing was bullied in Mango Orange. I thought it was the agent's fault at first, but it wasn't..."

"Also, the first time Xing Xing was on the trending search was because she danced, but the trending search was quickly removed."

It goes without saying that it must be Wen Yu. This has happened more than once.

"The resources Xingxing received were always intercepted by Wang Man and finally fell into Wen Yu's hands."

Wen Zheng asked his assistant to look for Wang Man.

Wang Man was very panicked at the time and told the whole story. She gave Lu Wenxing's resources to Wen Yu because she had limited resources. After knowing Wen Yu's identity, she would occasionally exploit other artists under her name.

Lu Wenxing is the most unruly one, and Wang Man's desire for control is aroused. She doesn't really want to hide Lu Wenxing, but wants to use this method to make Lu Wenxing obedient.

When asked how she knew Wen Yu's identity, Wang Man's original words were.

"That day I asked him to wait for me in the office. When I walked in, I accidentally heard Wen Yu talking on the phone. Because Wen Yu hadn't told anyone, I thought he didn't want others to know, so I pretended not to know. But in private, I would be more accommodating to him. It is human instinct to curry favor with the powerful."

"Wen Yu is very scheming. He must have let Wang Man hear it on purpose."

Ji Yuan's fingers curled up and her knuckles trembled slightly. She did not take good care of Wen Yu, but she had agreed to provide financial support before.

They have done enough. Wen Yu was kidnapped because of Xingxing, and the Wen family felt that they owed him something, but the kidnappers were the wrong people, and the Wen family is also trying their best to compensate Wen Yu.

After curing Wen Yu's leg, they knew that he was weak after the operation and the environment in the welfare home was not good, so they agreed to let Wen Yu recuperate at the Wen family.

They also made concessions again and again, from financial support to recuperation, and finally agreed to let Wen Yu stay temporarily in the Wen family before he came of age, providing him with a good living environment. They had never treated Wen Yu badly in terms of material things, and gave him the best education, but how could Wen Yu do such a thing?

Ji Yuan was shaking with anger. Under the worried gazes of the father and son, she suddenly stood up and spoke word by word.

“I want to make this public.”

With just one look, Wen Huaihe understood what Ji Yuan meant.

"Wen Yu wants to be famous, doesn't he? Then... give him this opportunity."
