Chapter 342: Substitute 1
The soul inside the porcelain doll quickly spoke in a flattering manner when it heard her voice. Its eyes also behaved properly and stopped rolling around. Even the corners of its mouth that were raised were shrunk.
That expression must have been so aggrieved.
But Qing Yanrou didn't buy her trick.
She bent her fingers again and tapped the porcelain doll's head to warn her.
"Be honest."
After saying this, Qing Yanrou took the porcelain doll out of the box.
It feels warm in the hand, not cold, and has a porcelain-like feel with a softness to the touch, like human skin, which is a bit harder.
The reddish-brown bloodstains on the porcelain body had completely dried up. She turned the little porcelain doll over and saw a talisman stuck on her back.
It was a soul-calming talisman with some birth data densely written on it.
She took the talisman down with the spiritual power in her hand.
As soon as the talisman was removed, a transparent soul floated out from the porcelain doll.
A little girl who looked no more than three years old, wearing a pretty little dress and cute pigtails.
If it weren't for her pale and bloodless face and the way she floated in the air, others would have thought she was a normal child.
"Thank you, sister."
Her voice was tender and innocent. Seeing this, the others were no longer as scared as before. They sat down on the sofa.
"What's your name? Why are you trapped in here?"
Qing Yanrou looked at her small body, whose soul was clean and had never been tainted by human life, but she just couldn't understand her cruel behavior just now.
"My name is Gu Xin. Mom and Dad like to call me Ah Xin. This is my body, so of course I want to be inside it."
"What did you say your name was?"
Lin Sheng fell into deep thought the moment he saw her face. Now, when he heard her introduce herself, his pupils suddenly dilated and he asked in disbelief.
"Gu Xin, Gu means surnamed Gu, Xin means happy."
Gu Xin tilted her head, looked at Lin Sheng seriously with her dark eyes, and spoke again:
"I know you. You are Brother Lin. I've heard Mom and Dad mention you."
But when Lin Sheng heard her words, he seemed to be struck by lightning. He stood there blankly with a dull look in his eyes.
Qing Yanrou looked at Gu Xin, then at the stunned Lin Sheng, and asked slowly:
"Who told you that was your body? Why did you want to hurt someone just now?"
"It's Mom."
"I was sick and in a lot of pain. Then one day my parents found this new body and let me live in it. They will continue to find a more suitable body for me.
But I lived like this for many, many years. I couldn't move and no one talked to me. It was dark all day long.
Until yesterday, I suddenly felt a huge temptation, it was as tempting as the sweet and sour pork ribs my mother made for me when I was a child, I couldn't resist..."
Gu Xin felt a little guilty at the end, and she knew that her behavior was wrong.
But in Porcelain Doll, she often couldn't control her behavior, and she didn't think she had done anything wrong.
But after she came out of the porcelain doll just now, she thought again that she really shouldn't have done that.
After listening to Gu Xin's words, Qing Yanrou was almost able to piece together the outline of the matter.
However, only the parties involved can know the whole story better.
"Take a look here to see if it contains the birth date of Ah Yue that you mentioned."
She handed the talisman she had just taken from the porcelain doll to Lin Sheng and let him take a look at it.
Lin Sheng took the talisman and after seeing what was on it clearly, he said with a pale face and a trembling voice:
"This... this does have Ah Yue's birth chart on it. What the hell is going on here..."
"Yanrou, does this mean that this is just their own family affair?"
Mrs. Huo, who had been listening for a long time, finally found the opportunity to speak.
It was obvious that this kid knew this family. Maybe they had offended someone and were being retaliated against.
This was also an unexpected disaster for the Huo family.
Qing Yanrou glanced at her when she heard that. Of course, she could feel the change in her attitude towards her and her thoughts.
"Zhiying, you should continue listening. After all, no matter what, this happened on Huo's territory."
Ning Youran frowned slightly. Why hadn't she noticed that Li Zhiying was so opportunistic and snobbish before?
Mrs. Huo could only smile and shut her mouth.
"You also have someone named Gu Xin? Tell me about it. If you don't tell me, I won't know where to start."
Qing Yanrou smiled at Ning Youran, then continued to talk to Lin Sheng.
After hearing this, Lin Sheng sighed deeply, sat on the sofa on the other side, looked up at Gu Xin who was floating in the air and was very curious about the surroundings and said.
“I was adopted by the Gu family, and Ayue was also adopted.
But unlike me, A Yue came to the Gu family when she was over two years old, while I came when I was ten years old.
But A Yue didn't know her own identity. I discovered this secret when I was sorting out the belongings of Gu's father and mother after their plane crash.
Mother Gu kept mentioning the name Gu Xin in her diary, and there were some other fragments that let me know about this matter.
At the time, I thought they had passed away and no one knew about this, so I didn't tell Ah Yue.
What Lin Sheng never expected was that Gu Xin, who had only appeared in Gu's mother's diary, actually showed up.
And he looks like a two-year-old child.
But why did it reappear four years after their death?
And in this way, if this girl hadn't come to the rescue today, would Ah Yue have died...
Lin Sheng was very confused. When he thought that A Yue almost left him, he felt like his heart was being cut by a knife.
It was obvious that the Gu family couple treated them both as their own children.
Especially towards Gu Yue, he really loved her very much. The moment he saw the notebook, he even suspected that he had seen it wrong.
But thinking that they had passed away and Nian A Yue was in grief, there was no need to tell her about this.
But he was really confused by the situation before him.
"Do you know why your mother trapped you in this porcelain doll?"
Qing Yanrou reached out and pulled Gu Xin, who was floating in the air, to the table in front of her and asked her to sit down.
"I know. Mom told me to stay in her body and wait for Gu Yue to become an adult. Then I can live with Mom and Dad again.
By the way, who is Gu Yue? I often hear my mother talk about her, but I have never seen her.
Every time I hear my mother mention her, I feel unhappy. If she hadn't said that she only loves me, I would have started to feel jealous."
When Gu Xin mentioned Gu Yue, the expression on her face was too serious and her tone of voice was a little gloomy. At this time, she did not look like a two-year-old child at all.
