Chapter 257 Are You Suspecting Something?

Lin Aijun felt a little tight in his chest. He had suspected it at first and asked Fu Jinzhou about it.

I didn’t expect it was really her!

The girl named Su Li, a teacher in the Department of Literature at Pingjiang University, was called second-hand goods by her wife and adopted daughter.

She is his biological daughter!

This realization, like a raging storm, instantly swept through Lin Aijun's entire world!

After the huge shock, there was indescribable ecstasy, followed by pain and guilt that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

His daughter...what has she been through all these years?!

Lin Aijun closed his eyes, forcibly suppressing his surging emotions. When he opened them again, there was a deep determination in his eyes.

He looked at Fu Jinzhou and Chen Ze, his voice still trembling slightly with excitement, but his tone was unquestionably firm.

"Jinzhou, Comrade Xiao Chen, please keep this matter a secret for me for now."

Fu Jinzhou nodded, "Don't worry, Uncle Lin, I understand."

Lin Aijun took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calmer.

"This weekend, I will personally take my lover to Pingjiang."

"I want to...see her."

When he said the word "her", Lin Aijun's voice was choked and his eyes were slightly red.

The father and daughter are connected by heart. Thinking of the hardships his child has endured, his heart was overwhelmed and he could hardly control himself.

Fu Jinzhou looked at Lin Aijun's forced calmness and felt a slight movement in his heart.

He pondered for a moment, then asked the question in his heart in a low and serious voice.

"Uncle Lin, when your child went missing, did you report it to the police?"

Lin Aijun breathed a sigh of relief. "My aunt and I only have this one child in our lifetime. How could we not report it? After we found out the child was missing, we immediately called the police, but there has been no news since then."

Speaking of this, Lin Aijun's expression was a little complicated.

"I'm a little confused. You could have just had the Pingjiang City Public Security Bureau conduct a comprehensive search. Why are you doing it so quietly? Are you really just worried about upsetting Auntie and Wanyi?"

"Even if you were afraid to make them sad, you could have kept it a secret from them. Why did you ask me to look for it quietly?"

Fu Jinzhou's eyes were sharp, with a hint of inquiry.

Lin Aijun looked at Fu Jinzhou with indescribable admiration in his eyes.

This child has some sharp insights and is calm and composed. His future career may be no less promising than his.

Seeing that Lin Aijun didn't say anything and was looking at him, Fu Jinzhou was almost certain that what he was thinking was right.

He pressed on, "Are you...suspecting something?"

Fu Jinzhou's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

Lin Aijun's face darkened instantly, his eyes became sharp and cold, and his aura suddenly changed, carrying the majesty unique to a superior and a subtle hint of... murderous intent.

The air in the office seemed to freeze.

He was silent for a moment, as if considering something.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, his voice low and with a hint of coldness.

"Yes, when the child was missing, I did report it to the police immediately."

"The Pingjiang City Public Security Bureau filed a case that year."

His fingers tapped the table unconsciously, making a light sound, as if knocking on everyone's heart.

"I once thought it was fate, that it was destined for me, Lin Aijun, to suffer this misfortune, and that my fate with my daughter was shallow."

His tone revealed deep fatigue and helplessness.

"until……"

Lin Aijun's eyes suddenly became sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath!

"It wasn't until this year's Spring Festival, when I met up with my comrades, that I learned someone had blocked my path to finding my daughter."

"I thought he was an old comrade. He now holds a high position in the Pingjiang City Public Security System."

"During the meal, he mentioned that he envied me for finding my lost child so quickly and for my daughter being so successful now."

When Lin Aijun said this, a cold arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, filled with endless ridicule and anger.

“I was stunned.”

"Found it back? When did you find it back?!"

"When I asked him further, he told me with a look of surprise..."

Lin Aijun's voice was so clear, each word was pronounced with an emphasis, as if it had been tempered by ice.

"That year, within two days of me reporting the crime, someone... went to the Public Security Bureau and dropped the case in my name!"

"The reason is... the child has been found!"

Withdraw the case?!

Fu Jinzhou and Chen Ze's pupils shrank at the same time!

Someone actually pretended to be Lin Aijun and tried to withdraw the case?!

What is hidden behind this?!

There was a cold glint in Lin Aijun's eyes, and a chilling aura emanated from his body.

"My old comrade wasn't in Pingjiang at the time. He was transferred there many years later and stumbled upon my police report while sorting through files."

"Later, when he saw Wanyi growing up beside me, he always believed that the person who was lost and quickly found was Wanyi."

There was only deathly silence in the office.

An invisible haze hangs over everyone's heart.

Twenty-five years ago, who was it that used such despicable means to impersonate Lin Aijun and withdraw the case?

What is the purpose?

Is this simply a human trafficker trying to cover up his crime?

Or... is there a deeper conspiracy and secrets behind this that no one wants to know?

Lin Aijun's gaze, looking out the window, was deep and cold.

This time, he not only wants to find his daughter.

We must also find out who severed the relationship between father and daughter that had lasted for 25 years!

No matter who it is, he will never...

Forgive me!

…

When Lin Wanyi arrived home, Jiang Jun was watching TV alone in the living room.

"Wanyi, the kitchen has made fish soup for you, go have some."

Seeing his daughter come back, Jiang Jun's face was full of smiles.

"Mom, I don't want to drink. Did my uncle tell me when Brother Xuan can come back?"

Jiang Jun sighed, "Your uncle said that they are cracking down now, and he will be allowed to come back after the storm has died down."

Hearing her mother's words, Lin Wanyi happily hugged Jiang Jun's arm and acted coquettishly, "I knew that Mom would never let those who do good for me suffer. I feel so happy. Mom and Dad love me, Grandpa loves me, and Aunt Ling's family is so good to me too."

The cute voice was like being wrapped in sugar, so sweet that Jiang Jun also felt very happy.

"Mom, why am I so happy?"

Her soft voice was filled with helplessness the next second. "It's a pity that so many people love me, but Jinzhou is the only one who doesn't like me. He would rather have Su Li than even look at me."

The originally joyful atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

"Baby, you can't expect everyone to love you."

Jiang Jun held his daughter in his arms and patted her gently.

"Mom, if it weren't for Su Li, how could Jinzhou not like me? She must have used some improper means. She and Jinzhou stayed in the hotel for a whole night, how could it be possible..."

Lin Wanyi's tears fell down, which made Jiang Jun feel distressed.

"Tell me, how many times have you cried for Fu Jinzhou? Listen to your mother's advice. If it doesn't work, let's look for someone else. There are many outstanding men in the world, not just Fu Jinzhou."
