After leaving his godmother's house, Lin Jin didn't go home but headed straight for the compound where Xiao Hong lived! Lin Jin reached the gate and stopped to look around. The gate was tightly closed, and guards stood watch, heavily guarded. Lin Jin circled the gate, racking his brains but unable to find a way in, as entry required identification or someone to guide him.
Lin Jin thought to herself, "This compound must be inhabited by important figures." She dared not linger at the gate, lest she arouse suspicion and be mistaken for a thief—that would be troublesome! Just as Lin Jin turned to leave, she suddenly saw a car drive out of the compound. Seeing this, Lin Jin quickly moved to the side of the road to avoid being hit.
The car slowly drove out of the courtyard gate, the window half-open, and the person inside seemed to be intentionally looking out. Lin Jin's eyes met the person's, and instantly, Yu Zhenzhen's pupils contracted sharply, as if struck by lightning! She opened her mouth to speak, but the car was going too fast, and in the blink of an eye, the person behind her was gone!
By the time Yu Zhenzhen came to her senses, Lin Jin had already disappeared. She then remembered that she should have asked the driver to stop the car. After the car came to a stop, she hurriedly opened the door and rushed back home.
But there were still people at the gate of the compound, so Yu Zhenzhen ran to ask the guard. "Was there a young woman at the gate just now?" Yu Zhenzhen asked anxiously. The guard nodded. "Yes, there was a woman, but she just left." Although Yu Zhenzhen was a little disappointed that she hadn't seen her, she didn't ask any more questions. In that one glance, she thought she had seen her young mother!
Yu Zhenzhen shook her head gently and muttered to herself, "Maybe I've been too tired lately! Maybe we just look a little similar."
However, Lin Jin didn't let go of the matter as easily as Yu Zhenzhen. She rode her bicycle slowly back to her courtyard house. Night quietly fell, the city lights came on, and the whole city was illuminated.
After finishing dinner, Lin Jin lay quietly in the space, her thoughts surging like a tide. She recalled everything that had happened that day, especially the fact that Xiao Hong was the daughter-in-law of the Yu family, which made her even more certain that she was the child of the Yu family's daughter.
"Now that we know Xiao Hong is directly related to my being taken away, it means she can't escape involvement in this matter." Lin Jin pondered to himself, "But I've never heard of the Yu family's daughter losing a child! What exactly happened? Perhaps it's been too long, and not many people remember this, or perhaps they never even looked for me."
Lin Jin couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow for the original owner of this body. Although she didn't have many expectations for her biological parents, the thought of how the original owner had never been loved or expected from birth still brought an indescribable bitterness to her heart.
"Fine, since that's the case, I don't need the love of my family." Lin Jin sighed helplessly. "However, in order for the original owner to leave in peace, I still need to investigate her background." This requires starting with Xiao Hong, but she can't enter the compound, and she hasn't seen Xiao Hong recently! Perhaps she can also inquire about the Yu family from her classmates! Maybe she'll find something!
The next day, Lin Jin arrived at school. During recess, she casually chatted with her classmates about the Yu family. "Have you heard of the Yu family? They seem very mysterious," one classmate said excitedly, their eyes lighting up. "The Yu family? They're a very prominent family around here. The patriarch of the Yu family did some great service. His daughter, Yu Zhenzhen, is said to be very capable." Lin Jin continued, "Capable? How so?"
A boy continued enthusiastically, "Did you know? His daughter, Yu Zhenzhen, initially went to the countryside in Suzhou, but later, for some reason, she brought a daughter back with her! This made Old Master Yu extremely happy, and without hesitation, he arranged for Yu Zhenzhen to work under him. Hey, you know what, Yu Zhenzhen really lived up to expectations! In just a few years, she rose through the ranks like a rocket, all the way to the regimental level! Now I hear she's the deputy director of the Political Department of the Beijing Military Region!"
However, someone in the crowd interrupted dismissively, saying, "Pshaw, what's so great about her? She's just got connections through her father!"
Upon hearing this, the boy immediately retorted, "What do you mean by relying on her father? Don't talk nonsense, she relied on her own real abilities! If it were just about connections, why didn't Chief Yu's son achieve that?"
At this moment, Lin Jin, who had been silent all along, suddenly teased, "Oh, how do you know so much? You didn't just make it up to fool us, did you?"
Seeing this, the boy wasn't angry at all. Instead, he proudly patted his chest and said loudly, "My grandfather told me all this himself! My grandfather used to serve under Commander Yu! And he often taught me to learn from him! Oh, and I've even seen Yu Zhenzhen's daughter with my own eyes! She's so beautiful!"
Several classmates were still making a fuss, their voices rising and falling, and the topic kept revolving around Yu Zhenzhen's daughter!
However, even though her body had left the group of classmates, her thoughts remained on their conversation. "Yu Zhenzhen has a daughter, so who is Lin Jin's daughter?" This question lingered in her mind like a curse.
Lin Jin knew very well that her godmother had told her very clearly that the Yu family now only had Old Man Yu's lineage left in Beijing. Moreover, more than twenty years ago, the rest of the Yu family had all moved abroad to settle down, and Old Man Yu had no daughters at all.
However, Lin Jianye and Yu Cui would never lie to her! After all, it was her own medicine, and she knew the details perfectly well. So, could it be that Yu Cui and the others had also been deceived?
The more Lin Jin thought about it, the more unsettling it seemed. She began to have deep doubts about the true identity of Yu Zhenzhen's daughter. Who exactly was this woman? Why was she suddenly here? And what did her appearance signify?
A barrage of questions flooded Lin Jin's mind, a jumbled mess that made her already sluggish brain even more confused. She felt as if she had fallen into a massive mystery, unable to find a way out.
