12 years later, she became a sacrifice for a fami...
Chapter 2295 Returning the Property to Its Original Owner
When Chu Lingfeng asked this question, his heart was in suspense.
Through Aunt Ling's narration, he has become more and more convinced that Aunt Ling's daughter is his sister.
Although there are still some things that I can't figure out, countless clues fit in.
Name, appearance, experience...
Now, as long as we can confirm Ling Ying's age when she arrived at the Ling family, or the year she came to the Ling family, we can basically be sure whether Ling Ying is her sister.
Aunt Ling was a little surprised by his question, but perhaps because she saw that he was extremely nervous, she didn't ask any more questions and answered his question directly.
She told Chu Lingfeng the date Lingying came home very accurately. Because they didn't know Xiaoying's specific birthday, they set that day as her birth date and remembered it firmly.
As for Xiaoying's age when she came home, Aunt Ling only knew that she was about ten years old when she came, but she couldn't be sure because Mu Ying's parents didn't tell her.
After hearing this, Chu Lingfeng couldn't help but take a deep breath and said to Aunt Ling: "If I'm not mistaken, Xiaoying should be my sister."
He tried hard to control his emotions, but his voice still trembled when he opened his mouth.
His words also shocked Aunt Ling, who asked him what was going on.
So Chu Lingfeng told Aunt Ling the story of himself and his sister, and emphasized a few pieces of information.
His sister is also called Lingying, Chu Lingying.
My sister was ten years old when she died in the fire.
Mu Ying's parents were once good friends of his parents.
Although, his parents had dragged down Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu, they should both have resentment towards their family.
But it is not ruled out that Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu put aside their past grudges and still extended a helping hand when he and his sister needed help.
Another thing is that Ling Ying looks very similar to his sister.
In fact, as soon as Ling Ying entered the cafe, he felt that her features were very similar to his sister's.
He hoped that his sister was still alive, but he felt that was impossible, so he did not allow himself to have any extravagant hopes.
But through what Aunt Ling said just now, he was basically certain that Xiaoying was his sister Chu Lingying.
The only thing that he couldn't understand now was that after his sister died, he personally carried the bodies of his sister and the housekeeper out of the rubble and buried them.
If Ling Ying was his sister, whose body was that he buried that year?
After he expressed his doubts, Aying asked him whether he had been guarding the scene after the fire broke out. If he had left in the middle, it was not ruled out that someone deliberately created the illusion that his sister and the housekeeper were dead.
This reminded Chu Lingfeng that when the fire happened, he was so sad that he fainted.
He could not remember how long the fire burned, but he only remembered that it rained heavily after the fire.
He was awakened by the heavy rain and walked into the house that had been burned to only black ruins. He found the bodies of his sister and the housekeeper. The fire had caused their bodies to be severely carbonized, and their faces were difficult to recognize.
He couldn't bear to look at them any longer, so he covered their bodies with white cloth.
Later, with the help of local people, he collected the remains of his sister and uncle and buried them.
After that, he left with Mr. Xiao who adopted him and never returned.
Ah Ying's guess is possible. Maybe Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu saved Ling Ying. As for the skeleton at the scene, it might not be a real corpse, but a forged one to deceive people.
Aunt Ling was also very excited after hearing all this. She told him not to worry about it. If he wanted to know whether Ling Ying was his biological sister, it was very simple. He just needed to use DNA to identify the relationship.
Aunt Ling will help her get Ling Ying's hair for identification as soon as possible.
However, before the identification results come out, Aunt Ling still hopes not to make it public. After all, Mu Ying's parents had instructed that all information about Ling Ying's background must be kept confidential.
Aunt Ling also assured him that as long as Xiaoying was Chu Lingfeng's sister, she would never hide anything about her life experience from Xiaoying and would tell Xiaoying everything that happened back then to help them recognize each other.
But before the results come out, she hopes not to let Xiaoying know about this.
Because as soon as Xiaoying hears about the kinship test, she will know that she is not her biological child, and if they are not brother and sister, Xiaoying's life experience will be exposed in vain.
Chu Lingfeng expressed his understanding of Aunt Ling's decision. This was the greatest protection for Ling Ying, and he had no objection.
That day, the three of them chatted for a long time in the cafe, talking about the lives of Aying's parents and Xiaoying's growth experience over the years.
All three of them were deeply moved.
But by the time she finished speaking, it was already late and Aunt Ling was ready to go home.
In fact, Chu Lingfeng really wanted to wait for Ling Ying and A Fei to come back and say hello to Ling Ying before leaving. Even if he couldn't recognize her now, he still wanted to take one more look at his sister.
But Aunt Ling was worried that his behavior was too obvious and would arouse Xiaoying's suspicion, so she said that one day wouldn't make a difference, and if they were siblings, they would recognize each other sooner or later.
So they exchanged contact information with Aunt Ling and said goodbye to her.
Aunt Ling went to find A Fei and Ling Ying, while Mu Ying and Chu Lingfeng also went back home.
However, before parting, Aunt Ling suddenly called Aying and said that she almost forgot something important.
As she spoke, Aunt Ling took out a bunch of keys from her bag and handed them to Aying, saying that these were the keys to the villa where Aying's family used to live.
That year, after Aying's parents got into trouble, the court auctioned the villa and used the proceeds from the auction as a fine for his father's previous illegal operations.
The people who took the photo of her house were Aunt Ling and her deceased husband.
After Mr. Ling was imprisoned, the house should have been confiscated, but fortunately it was registered under Ling Ying's name. According to the legal principle of "one's own responsibility and against collective punishment", it was not confiscated.
After Mr. Ling passed away, Aunt Ling and Ling Ying faced a difficult life. They even thought about selling the house, but the two previous buyers of the house, one died in a car accident and the other committed suicide in prison, so no one was willing to buy it.
Later, after going through difficult times, there was no need to sell the house, so it just stayed.
Aunt Ling said that now that Aying has been found, it is time to return the property to its original owner. She will go back to complete the transfer procedures and return the house to Aying. It will be up to Aying to decide whether to keep the house or sell it.
Ah Ying took the key and said, "Thank you... Then I'll pay the market price..."
Aunt Ling patted her arm gently: "Don't ask me for money. Your mother and I are like sisters. If you give me money, it means you don't recognize me as your aunt."
After hearing this, Aying's eyes finally turned red. She hugged Aunt Ling's shoulders and cried like a child.
