Chapter 281 Even if I rot here, you have to stay with me
The warehouse was filled with dust and despair. The lights were dim, barely making out the outlines of the two people struggling in the corner.
Shao Ting'an's fingers were like iron pliers, tightly pinching Zhao Xinran's neck.
Veins bulged on the back of his hands, and his eyes were filled with cruelty.
Zhao Xinran's face had turned red.
She grabbed Shao Ting'an's wrist in vain, and made intermittent pleas for mercy in her throat.
"Ting... Ting'an, let... let me go..."
A feeling of suffocation and fear swept over her.
"I...I'm obedient. I'll always...listen to you..."
Tears rolled down uncontrollably, mixed with sweat, covering his face.
"I listened before... and now I'll be even more obedient."
She used her last bit of strength to try to awaken a trace of pity in him.
Shao Ting'an looked at her in such a miserable state, begging for mercy, and there was only cold mockery in his heart.
obedient?
She was really obedient and had indeed listened to him before.
But now, can her mind still be the same as before?
That Young Master Song is capable, and it’s written all over her face.
Shao Ting'an would have to be blind not to have seen it.
He increased the strength in his hands a little more.
"Heh..." Zhao Xinran's eyes began to roll back and her body collapsed limply.
Just when she thought she was really going to die here, the force on her neck suddenly loosened.
Fresh air suddenly rushed into Zhao Xinran's lungs, and he began to cough violently, lying on the ground like a dying fish.
Shao Tingan looked down at her, his eyes as sinister as a falcon.
"Zhao Xinran, put away those inappropriate thoughts of yours."
His voice was low and contained an unmistakable warning.
"Don't think that just because I, Shao Ting'an, fall, you can climb up the ladder and get rid of me?"
He sneered, full of contempt.
"dream!"
"Remember this, you are my Shao Ting'an's woman. Even if I rot here, you have to stay with me!"
Zhao Xinran raised her head in horror and looked at him with tears in her eyes. She didn't dare to refute and could only nod desperately.
Shao Ting'an kicked a torn sack at his feet in disgust.
"This damn place is not a place for humans to stay!"
He paced a few steps irritably, the musty smell in the air making him feel sick.
"Tomorrow, find a way to rent a house for me!"
He ordered, his tone brooking no argument.
"Keep it clean and hidden! Do you hear me?"
Zhao Xinran coughed and trembled as he responded, "I heard... I heard it, Brother Ting'an... I'll find a solution right away..."
She knew that she could not escape from this man's clutches.
At least, I can't escape now.
He now clearly wanted to coerce her and rely on her for support.
…
The next day, afternoon.
In the Lin family's living room, sunlight shines through the window lattice, casting a mottled light on the ground.
There was a faint scent of tea in the air.
Jiang Jun sat on the sofa with a dignified demeanor and his usual gentle smile on his face.
Lin Wanyi snuggled up to her, looking intimate, and was talking about the TV station.
Of course, Fu Jinzhou has been avoiding her.
She went to the Qixian Cement Factory, but Fu Jinzhou was never there.
Lin Wanyi felt that Fu Jinzhou was avoiding her.
Jiang Jun comforted her, saying that she had been very sensible and excellent since she was a child, and should not let herself be overshadowed by a man.
After the mother and daughter chatted for a while, Jiang Jun felt that this was a good opportunity, so he inadvertently turned the topic to Lin Wanyi's childhood.
"When you were little, you were like a little bean sprout, very timid, always following behind your father..."
Her tone was full of nostalgia and her eyes were so gentle that tears could drip from them.
Lin Wanyi smiled and nodded: "I remember, Dad was my hero back then."
Jiang Jun looked at his daughter's pretty face, and a trace of pity flashed through his heart, but it was immediately replaced by determination.
Some things must be made clear.
She took a deep breath and gently held Lin Wanyi's hand, which felt slightly cool.
"Wanyi..."
Her voice was a little deeper and more serious than before.
Lin Wanyi sensed the change in her mother's tone, her smile faded slightly, and she looked at her with some confusion: "Mom? What's wrong?"
Jiang Jun looked into her eyes and said clearly, word by word:
"Wanyi, there's something your father and I have been hiding from you for many years."
"Today, Mom wants to tell you."
Lin Wanyi's heart tightened inexplicably, and she had a bad feeling.
Jiang Jun paused, as if trying to choose his words, and then slowly spoke: "Child... Actually, you are not your father's and my biological daughter."
boom--
It was like a thunder exploded in my mind!
Lin Wanyi froze, and the color on his face instantly drained away.
She looked at Jiang Jun in disbelief, her lips moved a few times, but no sound came out.
Not...biological?
How is that possible?!
From childhood to adulthood, her parents' love for her was so great that they held her in their hands for fear of dropping her, and held her in their mouths for fear of melting her. How could that kind of care that went deep into her bones be fake?
Those happy and carefree times, those warm embraces, those encouraging eyes... were they all acted out?
Lin Wanyi shook her head repeatedly, "Impossible! Impossible! Mom, what's wrong with you today? Why are you talking nonsense?"
Jiang Jun felt heartbroken when he saw his daughter's pale face and empty eyes.
She continued, "Our biological daughter was lost before you came..."
"But ever since I brought you home, I have always treated you like my own daughter."
"We have truly loved you all these years, Wanyi."
Lin Wanyi's tears finally burst out like beads from a broken string.
She suddenly shook off Jiang Jun's hand, her voice tearful and full of confusion.
"Mom, why?"
"Why are you telling me this all of a sudden?"
Jiang Jun raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, his voice choked with sobs, "Because you have grown up, it is indeed time for you to know these things."
"Is that why? I'd rather not know."
"Didn't you say you loved me the most? You kept it a secret from me for so long, why didn't you keep it a secret from me forever? This doesn't make sense!"
She cried and shook her head, like a child abandoned by the whole world.
"Is it because the Fu family wants to cancel the engagement?"
She suddenly thought of the most embarrassing and painful issue for her!
"Is it because Fu Jinzhou doesn't want me, and you feel embarrassed about me, so you made up such a lie to deceive me?"
"You want me to give up, to give up on my own accord, right?"
She became more and more excited as she spoke, and her voice became sharper and sharper, filled with anger at being deceived and abandoned.
Jiang Jun felt heartbroken when he saw his daughter crying.
This is the child she raised!
More than twenty years of hard work, more than twenty years of maternal love, have long been integrated into my bones and blood, how can it not hurt?
She stretched out her hand, wanting to hug her daughter, but Lin Wanyi dodged her.
"Wanyi, calm down and listen to what your mother says."
Jiang Jun suppressed his heartache and choked with sobs.
