Ying Zijin, the former big man, woke up and became the youngest daughter of the Ying family who had been missing for 15 years, and decisively adopted a child to replace her.
After returning, ...
Chapter 451 Exposed Online [3 Updates]
Indeed, many members of the Ying family underwent matching tests, including collateral relatives who moved to other cities.
But Ying Yuexuan was the only one who didn't do it.
Because neither Zhong Manhua nor Ying Tianlu took her into consideration.
In their view, Ying Yuexuan was adopted and had no blood relation with Ying Zhenting.
Of course, not being related by blood doesn't mean there's no match, it just means the chances are very low, which is why it's so hard to find a liver.
But why did Ying Zhenting specifically think of Ying Yuexuan?
Everything was now connected, and a terrifying truth popped into Ying Tianlu's mind.
“Yes, it’s her.” Ying Zhenting only wanted to live now. Seeing Ying Tianlu staring straight at him, he repeated, “Maybe she’s a good match. It doesn’t hurt to give it a try.”
"Dad..." Ying Tianlu slowly stood up, "So Jing Hongzhen isn't your friend, but a woman you kept on the side, and you two had Xiaoxuan, right?"
Ying Zhenting's expression changed: "What do you know?!"
Even Zhong Manhua didn't know the name Jing Hongzhen.
“I wouldn’t have known before, but now I know everything.” Ying Tianlu took a few steps back. “The phone is there. Whatever you want to do, make the call yourself. I need to calm down.”
Without waiting for Ying Zhenting to say anything, he practically fled the ward.

After seeing Ying Zijin and Fu Yunshen off in the afternoon, Grandpa Zhong went to the cemetery to pay his respects to Grandpa Fu.
He even prepared a banquet and a chessboard, pretending that Old Master Fu was still there.
I got home at 8 p.m.
The lights were off and the curtains were drawn, making it very dim.
Grandpa Zhong was puzzled. He had just turned on the light when he heard a sob come from the living room.
Ying Tianlu sat on the sofa, tears still streaming down his face.
"Tianlu, what's wrong?" Old Master Zhong was startled. "What happened?"
He had never seen Ying Tianlu cry from childhood to adulthood.
A man doesn't easily shed tears.
It's just that the heartbreak hasn't reached its peak yet.
"It's nothing." Ying Tianlu had calmed down somewhat and murmured, "My home is completely destroyed."
He suddenly smiled again: "It's really ruined."
Ying Zijin was already ruined before she was even born.
Grandpa Zhong was taken aback, realizing something was wrong: "What happened?"
Ying Tianlu pursed his thin lips slightly and recounted everything.
After hearing this, Old Master Zhong was also quite angry: "What a Ying Zhenting!"
Zhong Manhua is still his daughter, after all. She has done many wrong things and shows no remorse. He is heartbroken and unwilling to associate with her.
But this is not a reason for Ying Zhenting to cheat.
Moreover, this also seriously harmed Ying Tianlu and Ying Zijin.
"Where's your mother?" Old Master Zhong frowned after finishing his tirade. "What's she doing in the capital?"
Ying Tianlu shook his head: "They said they had news of a liver donor over there and went to look for one."
"Find my ass!" Old Master Zhong roared. "Tell her to come back and immediately divorce Ying Zhenting. Who cares if he lives or dies? Why isn't she this devoted to her children?"
Ying Tianlu nodded and began calling Zhong Manhua.
But the phone rang only once before it was hung up.
Ying Tianlu frowned and dialed a second time, but the message indicated that the other party's phone was switched off.
He looked up: "Grandpa, I can't get through on the phone."
"No, that's not right." Old Master Zhong's expression turned serious. "She probably didn't go to the capital to look for a liver donor, otherwise she wouldn't have turned off her phone out of guilt."
Ying Tianlu was stunned for a moment: "Could it be..."
"It's related to Zijing, absolutely!" Old Master Zhong was furious again. "Alright, don't make the call anymore, let her find out herself!"
Ying Tianlu took a deep breath and pressed his head.
He truly didn't expect things to turn out this way.
This has left him unsure of what to do, and he's even feeling somewhat desperate.
"I'll go tell Zijing." Old Master Zhong put on his glasses, his face grim. "Take a break and have some hot water."
**
When Ying Zijing received the call, she was playing cards with Xiu Yu and Nie Chao at the Nie family home.
After comforting Grandpa Zhong, she fell into deep thought.
The fact that Ying Yuexuan was an illegitimate child was bound to be revealed sooner or later. She didn't tell Ying Tianlu because she knew he couldn't accept it.
"Actually, this kind of thing is common in big families." Xiu Yu listened from the side and clicked his tongue. "Father Ying, you don't know, in the ancient martial arts world, there are people who steal each other's ancient martial arts talents, and even exchange their fates. It's really terrifying."
Nie Chao was understandably surprised: "Fate can be changed?"
“Sure.” Xiu Yu shrugged. “Of course, I’m not talking about those charlatans from the Fifth Family that I’ve met. I’m talking about real fortune tellers. I heard it from your sister-in-law. Someone from the Xie family had their fate changed.”
Nie Chao held his head, in great pain: "Don't mention that title."
Xiu Yu laughed: "Brother, just accept the facts."
“It is possible,” Ying Zijin said calmly. “However, what you’re changing isn’t your fate, it’s your luck. Some people are lucky, some are unlucky. Unlucky people can fall into a manhole while walking.”
Nie Chao swallowed hard and pulled his clothes tighter: "This is too... too mysterious."
He'd better protect himself.
"So, don't just tell anyone your birth date and time." Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow. "Diviners are different from other hunters. Even if they are thousands of miles away, they can still attack you if they have your birth date and time."
"I don't even know what time I was born," Nie Chao muttered, then asked, "Boss, do you think there's any hope for my luck with women?"
Ying Zijing looked up at him and said, "Give up."
Nie Chao: "..."

Because they had been informed in advance, the production team of the program "A Thousand Miles of Love" already knew that Zhong Manhua was coming.
In the context of the entire country of China, the Ying family may not be considered a major wealthy family, but they are still well-known.
Because this type of program is for public welfare, not many people watch it, the ratings have been declining, and the funding is also very limited, so it is about to go out of business.
They were more than happy to have Zhong Manhua on the show.
However, they did not tell Zhong Manhua that the program flow this time was different from previous episodes.
[@WanliqingV: We are honored to have the parents of this year's top scorer in the national college entrance examination to participate in the program. Everyone is welcome to watch the live stream at 2 PM on July 6th. [Live stream link]]
The popularity of the top-ranked paper in the national exam far surpasses that of "A Thousand Miles of Love," and it immediately became a trending topic.
Even those who came specifically for the event were somewhat puzzled.
Why did Ying Shen's parents appear on a family reunion program?
[Oh, I know that Ying Shen's adoptive father is Uncle Wen, but his biological parents are currently unknown. So, did they come looking for him after he became the top scorer in the college entrance exam?]
[Whatever it may be, I'll be blunt: the program "A Thousand Miles of Love" isn't a legitimate family reunion program. Under the guise of charity, they even force children to reunite with their families, all for the sake of gaining attention.]
[Waiting for the show to air.]
Today is July 6th, and many netizens are already waiting for it.
At 2 o'clock sharp, they clicked on the live stream link.
Because Zhong Manhua has never appeared online, most of them do not know Zhong Manhua.
But as soon as they saw that Zhong Manhua was dressed in haute couture, they immediately guessed it.
[The Ying family? ???]
[How dare the Ying family appear on a family reunion program? Didn't you guys snatch Ying Shen away from Uncle Wen and treat her like a living blood bank? Now you regret it?]
The story of the real and fake heiresses only came to light in a small circle in Shanghai, with very little information circulating online.
Most netizens believe that there is no relationship between the Ying family and Ying Zijin, and they are unaware of the truth.
"Mrs. Ying, hello." The host pressed the headset and picked up the microphone. "Thank you very much for joining our program. Your daughter is Ying Zijing, who ranked first in the national college entrance examination this year and is also the top scorer in Shanghai's college entrance examination, right?"
“Yes.” Zhong Manhua was a little uneasy, her fingers clenching her clothes tightly. “She is my biological daughter, not an adopted one. I’m sorry, I need to apologize to her. I apologize to my mother.”
This sentence caused an uproar online.
[Biological child? Are you kidding me? What biological child wouldn't be pampered after being brought home, instead being forced to donate blood?]
What exactly is the Ying family up to?!
"Madam Ying is on this program to find her daughter." The host glanced at his cue cards and continued, "Because Mr. Ying is now critically ill and urgently needs a suitable liver transplant, but unfortunately, no match has been found."
"Therefore, Madam Ying needs to find Miss Ying Zijing and ask her to come back to save Mr. Ying Zhenting."
The live chat exploded with comments.
[Heh, dream on!]
[Give birth but don't raise, what's the point of saving them?]
[However, wasn't the blood donation scheme orchestrated by Ying Luwei? What does it have to do with Ying Zhenting? He wouldn't even save his own father, and he can't even find him. That's unfilial. If you're going to argue, you're right.]
See you tomorrow~
