Chapter 198 Desolate Mountains and Bad Waters



"Hello comrade, we heard that you found a child in the county..."

The man in the lead walked up to Fu Wan and explained his purpose, but as he got closer, he discovered Fu Yun hiding behind Fu Wan.

"Zhao Mingzhu, why are you still hiding? Dad has finally found you!"

Fu Yun, oh no, I should call her Qin Mingzhu now. Qin Mingzhu shook her head desperately, large tears streaming down her face.

Now, not only Fu Wan, but even Ye Xiaocui couldn't stand it anymore.

"Comrade, where are you from? This child can't remember anything, please don't make things difficult for him."

"She can't remember anything? Did you abuse her?!"

A pregnant woman, supporting her belly, cautiously entered Fu Wan's courtyard, her expression carrying a hint of disdain and arrogance.

"Abuse? Who could abuse a child like you! Heaven and earth bear witness, I thought this child's entire family was dead! A child this age just vanished like that, and the traffickers made it crystal clear that her family sold her!"

Fu Wan narrowed her eyes, a cold smile on her face. "I just don't know which member of your family this is? Or did you all conspire to sell your own child?"

The couple's expressions changed immediately. The pregnant woman's face twisted with anger, but Fu Wan didn't miss the guilty look in her eyes.

"How dare you talk like that? What do you mean we sold our own child? Didn't the child just run away because he was naughty? I'd rather you said you kidnapped my child! Truly, bad people come from poor, remote areas!"

After saying that, he exaggeratedly covered his nose and looked Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui up and down, his disdain evident.

Where did this divine metal come from?

"It's almost nighttime, and all sorts of monsters and demons will come out and make a fool of themselves."

"You're standing on my property and complaining about my home? Get out of here right now!"

"If you don't go out and unleash your dogs, we'll show you what a troublemaker you are! Wangcai!"

When the man next to them saw that Fu Wan was about to kick them out, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed the woman.

"Comrade, I'm so sorry. My wife was very worried. The child got lost on his own, and we searched for a long time before finally finding him. We definitely have to take him home today, so what do you think..."

Fu Wan wasn't buying it. "You say you're this child's family, so you're her family? Where's the proof? Where's the letter of introduction? How can you prove she's from your family?"

This question left the man dumbfounded. "No, how can you be so unreasonable, comrade!"

"How am I being unreasonable? You say you're this child's family, but I'd say you're a child trafficker!"

Just then, a soft laugh came from the doorway. Everyone looked out and saw a beautiful woman standing at Fu Wan's door, having watched the commotion for who knows how long.

"Little sister, hurry up and tell us! Don't you have Mingzhu's birth certificate?"

The man looked at her as if he had seen a savior. Fu Wan looked puzzled. This woman was indeed very beautiful, but she didn't know whether she was friend or foe.

For some reason, she felt an inexplicable fondness for this woman.

"Zhao Dong, who's your little sister? My sister's been dead for almost half a year, don't try to claim kinship with me!"

The woman rolled her eyes, walked up to Fu Wan, and gave her a bright smile.

"Hello comrade, I am Qin Anning, the aunt of the child behind you. Thank you for taking care of this child these past few days. I brought some gifts to express my gratitude. I hope you won't mind."

Look, this is how a normal person behaves!

Normal people don't act like these two lunatics, coming to someone's house empty-handed and complaining about how poor and remote the place is.

Moreover, the woman didn't seem to mind that they had just returned from a sea trip. She insisted on shaking hands with Fu Wan before handing over the gifts she was carrying.

"Oh, young comrade, you've come all this way, why did you bring so much stuff!"

Who doesn't like a polite person, let alone such a beautiful and pleasing woman?

Ye Xiaocui hurriedly went out to wash her hands, saying, "I'll go pour you some tea!"

As for those two lunatics next to me, sorry, I didn't see them.

"Anning, how can you talk to your brother-in-law like that? We are your elders, after all!"

The pregnant woman next to her, Xu Min, spoke up for her man in a coquettish voice, but Qin Anning wasn't about to tolerate it. "Does your ex-brother-in-law even deserve to be called brother-in-law? A pair of scoundrels, what kind of elders are they!"

"My sister has only been dead for six months, and the baby in your belly is probably more than six months along, right?"

"I told you before, if you're not sincere about accepting Mingzhu, then don't come along. Do you really think I don't know what you're up to?"

"You all should leave now. I can handle Mingzhu's matter!"

Zhao Dong's face turned pale and then red after hearing her words, not to mention Fu Wan's amused expression and Fu Ling's puffed-out cheeks as she looked at him like a thief.

As for Fu Yun, he didn't even glance at her.

Fine, fine, we don't need this daughter anyway!

"Let her go back then. I think without the Zhao family's name, she can just stay in this backward fishing village!"

After saying that, he angrily turned to leave, ignoring his pregnant wife standing beside him.

"Hey, wait for me!"

As a result, Zhao Dong had only taken two steps when he turned back, walked up to Qin Anning, and extended his hand.

"What are you doing?"

Fu Wan thought he was about to make a move.

"Car keys, how am I supposed to get home without a car?"

Qin Anning was genuinely amused. "This car is mine, and you're asking me for the keys? Zhao Ping, how come I never realized you were so shameless?"

"With your abilities, you shouldn't have any problems getting back, right?"

"you!!"

Zhao Ping pointed at Qin Anning in a fit of rage, then could only turn away helplessly.

He has money on him, so why would he be afraid of not being able to get to town?

After the two left, Qin Anning finally calmed down and smiled sheepishly.

"I'm sorry, you all had to see this and make a fool of yourselves."

Fu Wan shook her head. "Comrade Qin, are you sure Yunyun is the apple of your eye?"

Qin Anning looked at Zhao Mingzhu, who was peeking out from behind her and curiously examining her, and her eyes couldn't help but redden.

"It's confirmed. Her eyes are exactly the same as my sister's; they are the phoenix eyes unique to our Qin family."

After saying that, she wiped away her tears and began to recount the whole story.

She herself went to the United States to study in her early years and only came back once, when her sister married Zhao Dong.

As a result, her older sister became depressed after giving birth to Mingzhu. When asked what happened, she wouldn't say. A few years later, when Qin Anning finished her studies and was preparing to return to China, she unexpectedly received news of her sister's suicide on the other side of the ocean.

She returned to China six months later and discovered that not only had her sister passed away, but her only niece had also disappeared.

She went to the police station several times and discovered that her sister had changed Mingzhu's surname before she died, and that the Zhao family had not reported Mingzhu's disappearance to the police at all!

She asked several friends for help and only recently learned that Qin Mingzhu was being cared for by kind people in Fujia Village.
