How ironic that in Wang Kun's eyes, Wang Xiyou, his biological daughter, is his daughter, even though she told Xu Jingxing the secret that Wang Kun had kept from him for so many years, Wang Kun still protected her.
Lu Wanzheng, the fake daughter who had called him "Dad" for ten years, immediately turned her back on him after he received the family property, and even frequently caused trouble for her and gave her a cold shoulder.
Perhaps this is due to blood ties, or more likely it's because Wang Kun's blood is cold and cannot be warmed.
Such people are wasting air, wasting the world's resources, and even wasting the space in this prison.
Xu Jingxing: "As long as you tell us what you want to know, we naturally won't do anything to her. If you choose to keep quiet, then your daughter should be reunited with you soon. Also, let me tell you something else: your daughter has recently gotten back together with that young master from the Yan family. You should think carefully about whether you want to tell us the truth."
Seeing Wang Kun's agitated state, Xu Jingxing knew this plan would work. He was already inside, yet instead of thinking about how to make himself feel better, he was concerned about the people outside. Xu Jingxing scoffed at this; did the people outside really think they could come and rescue him?
Lu Wanzheng hadn't expected that Xu Jingxing knew so much about Wang Xiyou's schedule, even that Wang Xiyou and Yan Qianxiao had gotten back together. She would have to ask him about it after they got out to see what his plans were for Wang Xiyou.
Logically speaking, Wang Xiyou has basically nothing to do with what happened back then. The only one who is probably connected is her. So, is Lao Xu going to deal with Wang Xiyou for her sake?
Thinking about it this way, I am still a little touched.
Seeing that he had no other choice, Wang Kun could only recount the events of the past, the parts he knew.
"Actually, I don't know who your biological father is. I've only heard your mother mention that he comes from a reclusive ancient martial arts family, but I don't know exactly who he is."
When I was studying in the south, I met your mother and developed feelings for her. However, I heard that she had a boyfriend, so I always protected her silently.
She studied finance in college, and I must say she was incredibly talented in that field. After graduation, I stayed in the south to work, and I lost touch with her for many years. But one day, I ran into her on the street; she was being chased, and I saw this as an opportunity to save her.
Lu Wanzheng interrupted her: "So my mother was already pregnant with me at that time, right?"
"That's right."
Lu Wanzheng felt a chill in her heart. Her mind was like a firecracker going off, crackling and exploding, making her ears hurt. What kind of hatred could drive someone to do such a cruel thing to a pregnant woman?
"However, your mother was still in the later stages of pregnancy, and we only found out she was pregnant after we left."
So, it's highly likely that those who were chasing her didn't know she was pregnant, otherwise they wouldn't have let her escape so easily. Since they had the intention to kill her, they would naturally have pursued her relentlessly.
Xu Jingxing: "Go on."
"After I rescued her from those people, she told me she wanted to come to Kyoto. I thought that since she was the goddess I had liked for so long, I should naturally accompany her. So I quit my job and came to Kyoto with her. At that time, she had no money, so I gave her all the money I had on me, hoping that she could live a better life during that period. I didn't expect that she would take that money and invest it directly, and then start a business. Soon, Wang's Entertainment took shape."
Considering that your birth requires a household registration, your mother and I have decided to have a fake marriage, becoming husband and wife in name only, so that your household registration can be successfully processed.
When you were eight months old, your mother met Xu Jingxing, an orphan, on the roadside, recognized him as her younger brother, and took him home.
After your mother gave birth to you, she devoted herself entirely to you and handed the company over to me. She would only help keep an eye on the company when she had free time. Although she spent very little time managing the company, it still gradually developed in a positive direction under her leadership.
That was roughly the situation back then.
Lu Wanzheng glanced at Xu Jingxing.
“I was indeed brought home by my sister when you were about eight months old.”
Lu Wanzheng knew from a young age that Lao Xu was not her biological uncle, but so what? He took care of her and doted on her, and in her heart, he was her biological uncle.
Many of the things Wang Kun said confirmed their previous ideas, but Xu Jingxing still didn't understand one thing.
"Since my sister is your goddess, why did you kill her for that little bit of money during the divorce? Can money really outweigh such affection?" Xu Jingxing coldly looked at Wang Kun, this ingrate.
Wang Kun: "Of course, but that's only one aspect. Lu Qianyu was a pampered young lady before, and she's proud to the core. Her marriage is only for Lu Wanzheng. She's never been with me. To be honest, we probably don't have any feelings for each other anymore. The most important thing is that someone wants her dead."
As he said this, a strange light appeared in his eyes. He looked arrogantly at the two people separated from him by only a pane of glass, "They gave me a considerable sum of money."
The two people on the other side of the glass were shocked. Lu Wanzheng slammed her hand on the table, stood up from her chair, leaned towards the glass, and said angrily, "Even if someone like you stays here for the rest of your life, dying would be too good for you!"
All her years of upbringing vanished in an instant, and she almost lost all reason. Wang Kun was the most shameless person she had ever met. If they weren't on separate sides, she would have rushed over and given him a good beating.
Xu Jingxing remained relatively calm. He put his hand on Lu Wanzheng's shoulder and pressed her back into her chair. "Calm down." He looked at Wang Kun. "Who gave you the money to kill your sister?"
Wang Kun probably felt relieved that he had finally spoken out, that the secret he had kept buried in his heart for so many years had been revealed, and that he no longer had any burden in his heart. He relaxed completely, crossed his legs, and leaned back in his chair with his back completely relaxed.
"They were the same people who chased her back then. I never thought that after so many years, they would still be able to find her. It just so happened that at that time, Lu Qianyu found out about Zhao Ping's affair and was discussing divorce with me. Since she was no longer of any use to me, I could naturally take advantage of this opportunity to get what I wanted."
The two walked out of the prison. Before leaving, Xu Jingxing said goodbye to the people in the prison, and the two left with heavy hearts.
Xu Jingxing was driving, and Lu Wanzheng was resting her head on her hand, her eyes fixed on the passing vehicles ahead. Xu Jingxing glanced at Lu Wanzheng and asked, "Are you still thinking about what Wang Kun said?"
"Hmm. I'm wondering who was the person who chased after my mother back then, and who my father is."
"No matter who they are or what family they belong to, at least we now know that my sister did not do anything immoral, which is a good thing for us."
Actually, I was just thinking that the reason your sister was being hunted down could very well be because of your biological father. Wang Kun just mentioned that your sister once said that your father was from a reclusive ancient martial arts family. So, it's very likely that there was an internal conflict back then. Your father must have had a high position in the family. So, there are two possibilities now.
One possibility is that your father lost this internal power struggle, and his enemies hunted down your sister, wanting to eliminate any future threat. Another possibility is that your father succeeded in the power struggle, but one of his enemies secretly escaped, searching for your sister for years, wanting to kill her and cause your father a lifetime of suffering.
"If it's the latter, then that's truly killing someone's heart!" Lu Wanzheng never expected that her background would involve a reclusive family. Such families basically never appear in the world, and they are quite difficult to find.
Xu Jingxing: "Now we finally have a clue. As long as this family exists, we will definitely be able to find them. Whether they are alive or dead, there will always be traces of their existence."
Lu Wanzheng nodded, then realized that Xu Jingxing was driving and couldn't see her nod, so she could only make an "hmm" sound.
"By the way, you just mentioned Wang Xiyou to Wang Kun, and said that she's with Yan Qianxiao now. Is that true? I remember the Yan family broke off their engagement with the Wang family, so how come these two are together again?"
She asked the question she had just had in prison, and she suddenly realized that Lao Xu was like a know-it-all, knowing quite a lot.
Xu Jingxing raised his eyes. "Ever since Wang Kun was arrested, I've had people keeping an eye on Wang Xiyou. A person only fights back when they're in dire straits. Without a job and a home, Wang Xiyou is bound to be resentful. So I think she'll definitely try to get revenge. But I'm not so easy to deal with. You're different, though. You're a public figure. As long as she collects dirt on you, she can smear you and drag you down with her."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wanzheng rolled her eyes, which was rather unsightly. However, since there were no outsiders present, she didn't need to restrain herself. "Is she an unkillable cockroach? Why does she always try to drag me down with her? Besides, where do I have so much dirt on me?"
She just couldn't understand it. Was Wang Xiyou some kind of leech in his past life? Why did he always like to stick to her like this? Now that things have come to this, why couldn't she restrain herself? Wouldn't it be better to find a job and live a stable life? Did she only feel happy when she had to turn everything around her upside down?
Xu Jingxing: "The dirt she sees may not be the dirt you think it is. Don't forget, she's the one who told us about your background. Although we already know what happened back then, many netizens don't. Your background could very well make you get criticized by netizens."
Netizens only care about what they see and don't care about the behind-the-scenes details. You have to understand that the internet and reality are two different times. Netizens are all virtual on the internet, and no one has to take responsibility for criticizing a celebrity. Since that's the case, they are naturally happy to see the chaotic side of the internet, which satisfies their perverse tastes.
If it doesn't concern me, I'll stay out of it.
“If she dares to post it, I will clarify it online and make her lose her bearings. However, she is currently unemployed and probably struggling to make ends meet. Where would she get the money to hire marketing accounts? She can't just use her own Weibo account to post this message and get involved herself.”
When it comes to personally taking action, Lu Wanzheng is a veteran. Every time she is attacked online, she personally steps in to confront everyone and everything, and fight back against the haters.
But Wang Xiyou is different. She only personally intervenes when she's playing the victim. But in this situation, how easy is it for her to be criticized if she does it herself? And how credible is that?
"I think that's why she's with Yan Qianxiao."
"That's right, Yan Qianxiao is the eldest son of the Yan family, and he's quite a powerful figure. Wang Xiyou can indeed get money from him." However, he thought it wouldn't be easy for Wang Xiyou to get money from Yan Qianxiao. As for the method, it's obvious between a woman and a man. "But doesn't Yan Qianxiao have a new fiancée? Can she tolerate that?"
Xu Jingxing knew who the "she" Lu Wanzheng was referring to was. "Anyone would probably find it unacceptable, but I'll keep their affair a secret for now. It wouldn't be fun if they found out so soon."
"The Yan family bullied you so much back then, so naturally I wouldn't let them get away with it, but we don't need to lift a finger to deal with the Yan family."
"Should we send his fiancée?"
“That’s right. Since Wang Xiyou wrongly accused you of being a mistress and getting pregnant out of wedlock, and you were slapped in the face by the real person, then I naturally have to return those things to you. I can’t let you suffer this injustice for nothing.”
Lu Wanzheng then realized that what Wang Xiyou was doing was indeed moving in the direction she had previously envisioned for herself.
"Uncle, thank you." Lu Wanzheng's tone was as serious as could be, her gratitude coming from the bottom of her heart.
Xu Jingxing shuddered. "It feels a little strange. You can still call me Lao Xu."
Xu Jingxing originally wanted to take Lu Wanzheng to a place to eat, but Lu Wanzheng refused.
Before parting, Xu Jingxing remembered something and called out to Lu Wanzheng.
Do you know Su Xiuyi, Wang Xiyou's former assistant?
"We know each other, we've had contact before, what's up?"
In Lu Wanzheng's memory, Su Xiuyi had virtually no presence around Wang Xiyou. On the contrary, she suffered under his care and was not valued. On set, she noticed that Wang Xiyou always treated her like a maid, and Su Xiuyi did all the heavy and tiring work, which was indeed inhumane.
However, since she was suddenly brought up, Su Xiuyi couldn't possibly seek revenge on her because of her former master. It was a pity that she had thought of her before and even mentioned it to Lao Xu, keeping her on and arranging an easy job for her as an entertainer.
"She gave me something, saying it was to thank you for saving her life in Y Province back then, and now she's willing to continue working at the company so she can support herself."
Lu Wanzheng breathed a sigh of relief. This must be what they mean by good deeds being rewarded. "What is it?"
"It's a good thing, something that can ruin Wang Xiyou and send her to hell. I'll make a backup of it for you when I get back, so you can open it and take a look yourself."
