Chapter 193 I won’t harm Lin Yan, just trust me
After reading the text message, Lin Yan was no longer sleepy and asked Xing Yu for his opinion.
"Xing Yu, do you think this news is true or false?"
Xing Yu sat back on the edge of the bed, looked down at the unfamiliar number, and took out his phone: "I'll try calling with my phone and see if he picks up."
Xing Yu originally wanted to give it a try and never thought that the other party would actually accept it.
But the other end remained silent for a long time, as if waiting for him to speak first.
Xing Yu first tried to say, "Hello."
It was stagnant for nearly half a minute.
A strange woman's voice came through the receiver: "You don't need to test me with your phone. You and Lin Yan just need to remember that I'm not a bad person and I won't harm you. The information I give you is true and there is no adulteration."
Xing Yu: "Were you the one who revealed the news about Shu En's daughter last time?"
"Um."
"Who are you? Why are you helping Lin Yan?"
The woman's voice was flat, without any ups and downs. "It doesn't matter who I am. You wouldn't know me even if I told you. And don't even think about checking my phone number. My number isn't verified with real-name authentication, so you can't find it."
"As for why I'm helping Lin Yan... to be precise, it's not entirely about helping her, because helping her is also helping myself."
Xing Yu didn't understand the meaning of her words: "What is your purpose?"
"There's no purpose. I told you I won't harm Lin Yan, just trust me."
"One day, I should meet Lin Yan..."
Since I can't find out her identity, I'll ask for some useful information at the moment.
"Are you sure Shu Lun is not Lin Yan's biological father?"
"Yes. You went to the hospital for a DNA test yesterday, and Shu Lun's people followed you the entire time. The test report you saw was spoofed. Therefore, Shu Lun is not Lin Yan's biological father."
Xing Yu took this opportunity to ask, "You mean, you know who Lin Yan's biological father is?"
"I don't know." The woman denied it and continued, "Also, Shu En has been taken to Lantai by Qin Yuan. She probably won't be returning to Jingbei for a while. Now, it will be even more difficult for you to deal with her."
"That's all I can tell you. Think carefully about what to do next."
She hung up the phone and the line was busy.
The phone was on speakerphone, so Lin Yan heard their entire conversation.
She racked her brains but couldn't figure out who this person could be.
"Xing Yu, can we trust her?"
"Eighty to ninety percent." Xing Yu said calmly, "If she wanted to harm us, she could have set a trap and taken advantage of the opportunity to attack us when she went to Qingyang to find Shu En's daughter."
"So far, it seems she hasn't done anything to harm us. Besides, she's probably secretly by our side, otherwise she wouldn't be so well-informed."
Lin Yan thought for a while and expressed her thoughts.
"Since we're sure she's not a bad person, she poses no threat to us. We can put her identity aside for now. I think... we should focus on getting to the bottom of Shulun's case first."
Xing Yu: "Yeah, I think so too. Ah Yan, I have a few questions now. First, why did Shu Lun secretly change the paternity test report to make you think you are biological father and daughter?"
"Second, what is your relationship with the Shu family? How much of what Shu Lun told you last night was true? How much was false?"
"Third, why did Shu En say Shu Lun was your biological father? She also knew you were abducted. In fact, you were indeed abducted from Jingbei to Longping. From this, it seems that you must have some kind of relationship with the Shu family. Then who are your biological parents? Could they be members of the Shu family?"
Lin Yan made a quick decision without hesitation: "So if we want to figure out these issues, we have to start with Shu Lun. Xing Yu, I plan to move to the Shu family, and Shu Lun asked me to move back last night."
"Only by getting close to Shulun can I uncover the secrets he's hiding and learn the truth. Perhaps... I can also use this to find my biological parents..."
This is indeed the best solution at the moment.
But he had concerns and was worried.
He remained silent and didn't give in.
Lin Yan looked at his serious expression and smiled, "Coach Xing, don't overthink it. As long as I pretend to know nothing and act like his daughter in front of Shu Lun, nothing should go wrong."
Xing Yu frowned: "Ayan, I'm worried when you're not by my side."
Lin Yan moved closer to him and rested her chin on his shoulder: "Xing Yu, don't worry too much, I'm not that fragile."
After Lin Yan's repeated insistence, Xing Yu finally agreed reluctantly.
In the afternoon, Lin Yan took the initiative to contact Shu Lun.
Tell her you're willing to go home.
When Shu Lun heard the news, he was very excited on the phone and maintained the image of a good father.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Xing Yu sent her to the Shu family.
When getting off the car, Xing Yu gave her instructions.
"Ayan, if you have anything, please call me. If I can't reach you, I will come to your house directly."
Along the way, Xing Yu's frown never relaxed.
She raised her hand and stroked his brow: "I know."
After getting off the car, Shu Lun was already waiting for her at the door of the villa. Lin Yan thought that his eager look was a bit too much.
Stepping into the house, the huge living room is luxurious and exquisite.
Although it is filled with expensive furniture, it feels empty.
Maybe, it’s not very popular.
"Yuanyuan, this will be your home from now on." Shulun: "I've asked Mrs. Wu to prepare a room for you. If you need anything, just tell me and Dad will prepare it for you."
Lin Yan showed neither indifference nor enthusiasm: "Well, thank you... Dad."
When she called out "Dad", she felt sick.
But Shulun's eyes were filled with tears and he was extremely excited.
The acting is superficial and it hurts the eyes.
After Shulen showed her the bedroom, he took her to another room.
When I opened the door, the scent of sandalwood wafted into my nose.
The room was dimly lit and strangely eerie.
On the left was a two-meter-long bed. The white quilt on the bed was wrinkle-free, as if no one had ever slept in it.
Opposite the bed was a sofa, and on the wall to the left of the sofa hung a picture of a monster similar to the ones in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
The beast looked ferocious, with its mouth wide open, sharp teeth showing, and its eyes were yellow-green, and it looked terrifying.
There was also a line drawn on the beast that looked like a talisman.
It seems very weird.
Looking away, I saw a black display stand built on the right wall of the room. There were offerings on the stand and an incense burner in the middle with a few incense sticks that were about to burn out.
Following the incense stick, I saw a black and white portrait of a woman hanging on the wall.
Although it was the first time she saw the woman in the photo, Lin Yan felt that she was particularly kind.
Something seemed to be pulling her inwardly, and she took a step forward and stopped in front of the photo.
Shuren spoke hoarsely.
"Yuanyuan, she is your mother, Jinglan."
