Chapter 1178 The Vicious Female Supporting Character’s Tool for Winning Favor (12)
However, they miscalculated. After searching for three days in a row, there was still no news. Shen Zhiye's initial surprise turned into despair again. He felt that since his daughter was so young and had run away for so long without being found, it was very likely that she had been abducted by another group of human traffickers or had lost her life.
But if the person is alive, he must be found; if he is dead, the body must be found. He couldn't just leave the matter unexplained. Shen Zhiye had his own business to attend to, so he left Wei Jing behind to continue the search. At the same time, he also asked someone to investigate whether there was another group of human traffickers who happened to pass by here, or whether there were any human traffickers who had escaped the net before.
More than a month later, Shen Zhiye and the police finally gave up and stopped searching the mountain. However, Shi Chu's life or death was still unknown and he became a missing person.
After Wei Jing returned, she pestered Shen Zhiye and cried about her grief over losing her daughter, trying to arouse Shen Zhiye's sympathy and love.
She had not originally intended to use such drastic means to pester him, but her daughter, with whom she could slowly take her time, was gone, and she became panic-stricken, fearing that she would lose her bargaining chips and be completely outshined by Xie Manman.
However, she didn't know that her pestering backfired and made Shen Zhiye even more disgusted with her. Originally, Shen Zhiye was angry with her because his daughter was lost, and now she was pestering him without knowing the limits, which made Shen Zhiye hate her even more.
Moreover, without their daughter who served as their bond, Shen Zhiye wanted to get rid of her. In fact, besides feeling sad and disappointed about his daughter's disappearance, he also felt a little secretly happy. After all, without his daughter, he would no longer be involved with Wei Jing, and he could stay with Xie Manman and Yuanyuan exclusively.
Therefore, he treated Wei Jing's ignorant entanglement with indifference and heartlessly wanted to cut off contact with her. Wei Jing was simply furious. Shen Zhiye was her obsession. She was distressed by Shen Zhiye's ruthlessness, but still refused to give up. Instead, she became more and more entangled with him, and even found the place where he and Xie Manman lived, and harassed Xie Manman and Yuanyuan...
In short, the grievances and hatreds between these three people were a big deal and caused quite a joke in the upper circle. Wei Jing and Shen Zhiye's parents felt deeply ashamed and ordered them to solve the problem quickly and stop embarrassing themselves.
But Wei Jing had given it all, thrown away her only bargaining chip. She had abandoned her parents and family for Shen Zhiye. The sunk cost was too high, and it was impossible for her to let go.
Xie Manman was exhausted by Wei Jing's troubles, and because Shen Zhiye couldn't get rid of Wei Jing, she wanted to break up with Shen Zhiye and leave with her son, but Shen Zhiye was not willing to let them leave? Naturally, she coaxed and chased... The three of them chased each other, which was very exciting.
Anyway, in the end, this love triangle seemed to have returned to its original state.
Shi Chu, who had long been forgotten by his unreliable parents, had already gone to another city thousands of miles away from them.
She originally wanted to find a place to live a good life by herself, but she was too small. As soon as she appeared on the road alone, she was found by a kind-hearted person, who sent her to the police station to help her find her parents.
Shi Chu wanted to stay away from those two idiots. How could she let them send her back? So no matter how the police asked, she refused to tell them who her parents were. The police had no choice but to take her DNA information and put it into the database, hoping to find her relatives.
But after having her blood drawn, Shi Chu unknowingly replaced her own blood with the blood of a body that had been stored in the companion space. If she wanted to find the relatives of this body, she would have to go to another world. Therefore, Shi Chu's DNA information did not match any similar information, and she could not find her relatives, so she was sent to an orphanage without any surprise.
Fortunately, the environment in the orphanage she was sent to was pretty good. There were frequent donations and volunteers coming to help from time to time. There were no dirty things going on, and although the children were noisy, she could barely get by.
"Chu Chu, why don't you go out with your auntie to meet two people now? If you like them, they can be your parents. Do you want to have your own parents?" The director of the kindergarten held Shi Chu's little hand and asked softly.
Shi Chu acted confused and asked, "Do I really need mom and dad? Can I get toys and snacks instead?"
The director choked. She never expected this child to be so different. Other children all wanted to have a father and a mother, but this child only wanted toys and snacks.
"Chu Chu, if you have a father and a mother, you will also have toys and snacks. These things won't be a problem." said the director.
"Oh." Shi Chu responded slowly, and after a while he said, "Are mom and dad Doraemon?"
"Uh... about the same." The director wiped her sweat, "Chu Chu, you are so cute. If you have a father and a mother, they will definitely love you very much. Then you can have all the snacks and toys you want."
Shi Chu listened to the director's coaxing her and thought expressionlessly: I don't even want my own biological parents, how could I possibly find myself a pair of strange and unethical adoptive parents?
"Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu, this is Shi Chu. She is over three years old, has a good personality and is very quiet, but she is very smart and cute. It would be best if you want to adopt her," the director spared no effort to recommend Shi Chu to Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu.
Shi Chu looked at the couple. The man was in his forties, of medium build, but with not much hair. The woman had a sallow complexion and looked sad. When she saw Shi Chu, she just forced a faint smile.
When Mr. Zhu saw Shi Chu, his big eyes lit up and he said, "Not bad! Not bad! This child is doing well! When did she come to the orphanage? Is she healthy? I don't want to raise a sick child."
"No, no, Chuchu is in good health. She had a physical examination before the police brought her here, and she was not sick at all." The director said quickly.
"That's good." Mr. Zhu stared at Shi Chu, as if he was looking at the goods on the shelf, weighing whether the product had a high cost-effectiveness and whether it was worth buying.
"Are this child's parents still alive?" Mrs. Zhu asked suddenly.
"This... I'm not sure. The child was picked up on the street. The police questioned her for a long time but couldn't get any information about her parents from her. They also checked but couldn't find out her identity." The director replied.
Mrs. Zhu frowned immediately, looking even more worried. She said unhappily, "So there's no way to prove whether her parents are still alive? What if we raise her and her parents come looking for us? Wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
