It's exactly one month different from her current birthday.
Suppressing her anxiety, Gan Tang continued, "Where were you born?"
Mo Huaixing asked curiously, "Why are you asking this?"
"It's nothing." Gan Tang traced his features, touching his eyebrows and eyes, and said coquettishly, "Let's see if we've met before, maybe we have!"
That night, she lay beside him and had the most restless night of her life.
The next day, in Fu Shaojie's room
At this moment, Fu Shaojie lay on the bed, as vulnerable as a child, completely lacking the imposing presence he had on the cruise ship.
Serves you right! Who told you to kidnap me and kill someone? Now you're getting your comeuppance!
Gan Tang sat on the edge of the bed, inwardly cursing him with disgust, but still held the black chicken soup in her hands and fed him spoonful by spoonful.
"Sister, thank you for saving me," Fu Shaojie said vainly.
"Why thank me? Dad never intended to kill you. It was you who provoked him." Before Gan Tang could finish speaking, Fu Shaojie stiffened.
"dad!"
Following Fu Shaojie's words, Gan Tang turned her head and saw Lu Zhengqian.
"I told you Dad cares about you!" Gan Tang quickly got up and helped Lu Zhengqian sit down, leaving the two of them alone, while she had something more important to verify.
Never before have I felt such fear.
Gan Tang drove to the seaside, looked at the vast and endless sea, and called Fang Heng.
"Brother Fang, could you help me check Mo Ning's hospitalization and delivery records at Yunhang People's Hospital in 1996?" Mo Ning is the name of Mo Huaixing's mother.
Fang Heng didn't know Mo Huaixing's mother's name and asked curiously, "Who is Mo Ning?"
"Don't ask anymore." Gan Tang emphasized, "Brother Fang, this is very important. Please help me check it out, just today, okay? I'll wait for your news."
She couldn't wait any longer.
After hanging up the phone, Gan Tang sat on the rugged rocks, gazing at the vast, endless sea. The salty sea breeze blew from morning until evening. Just as Gan Tang felt herself freezing, Fang Heng called.
“Sister Lu, there is no record of Mo Ning’s childbirth in 1996, but there is one in 1994.”
"Thank you..." Gan Tang hung up the phone before she could finish speaking. She stood up groggily, her legs so numb she almost fell off the cliff.
Why, why did it become like this?
No, no. In 1996, not everyone gave birth in a hospital. Some babies were born at home, but the hospital issued the birth certificate.
Gan Tang drove back to Yuanhuai Manor and climbed the high-rise building that belonged exclusively to Jian Suhuai. She was still lying in the crystal coffin, her face still the same as when she was young.
The features, the eyebrows, the bridge of the nose—they really looked so much like Mo Huaixing. Gan Tang was so frightened that she stepped back, missed a step, and stumbled to the ground.
With only a month's difference in birthday celebrations, meaning Mo Huaixing's mother was still in her postpartum period, how could she possibly abandon her breastfeeding child and take her eldest son to visit her husband? How could that be?
"Tang'er!"
A large, burning hot hand landed on Gan Tang's shoulder. Gan Tang turned around tremblingly and saw Lu Zhengqian's face.
"How did we end up here with your mother?" He sat down casually and handed his daughter a cushion.
Gan Tang sat down on the futon, shrinking away from him. "I was asking my mother, if I stole that thing, would my father kill me?"
No wonder they were crying, they were scared. Lu Zhengqian reached out to wipe the tears from his daughter's eyes.
“You’re different from him. Whatever you want, Dad will give you.”
Really?
So, should I be happy right now? But why can't I smile?
That evening, Tian Tian called. She sounded cheerful on the phone.
"Tangtang, it's amazing. Ever since I posted on WeChat Moments, my boss hasn't bothered me anymore, and my colleagues are so polite to me. Before, it would take forever to ask HR for a paper certificate, but now, before I've even finished using it, a new one is already on my desk. The boss even gave me good projects. Now I don't even have to work overtime anymore, and I finally have time to prepare for the exam."
As Tian Tian spoke, she noticed there was still no response on the phone and asked curiously, "Tangtang, what's wrong?"
Gan Tang couldn't hold back and burst into tears: "Tian Tian, I'm scared, I'm scared..."
...
Fu Cheng's private villa
He had been living here ever since he was tortured, and that night, He Zhong came to see him.
"Why did you hit him so hard? What grudge did you have against me?" He looked at Fu Cheng's injuries with great concern.
"It's nothing, it's just that I raised an ungrateful wretch." Fu Cheng pushed He Zhong's hand away with disdain: "Fourth Uncle is really a sly old fox. He managed to get away unscathed from such a big incident."
"Oh, my nephew," He Zhong said with a worried look, "My brother is cunning. He just doesn't have evidence, so he can't confront me directly. Doesn't he realize that I sent Fu Shaojie?"
“Yes. My godfather no longer trusts me, so I have to strike first.” At this point, Fu Cheng suddenly looked at He Zhong, “Fourth Uncle, if my godfather dies by accident, the Lu Group will be ours.”
He Zhong feigned panic, "Nephew, you can't say things like that."
"Fourth Uncle, once suspicion arises, there's no going back. When has he ever humiliated me like this?" Fu Cheng gritted his teeth in hatred. "All these years, I've served you faithfully. Did you really think I was a dog without a temper?"
"Nephew, don't be impulsive." He Zhong was secretly overjoyed.
Fu Cheng sneered: "I haven't wasted these years. If Fourth Uncle doesn't dare, just stand by and watch. I don't need you."
He Zhong finally couldn't hold back any longer, "What my brother has isn't something you can get just by killing him."
