Chapter 336 The Orphanage's Lies: The Handsome Flower Boy 36
Beijing is a large city, inhabited by countless people. Every day, people die and are born.
This is a bustling and vibrant place, and Lu Jinnian's biological father comes from this city.
What kind of person is Lu Jinnian's biological father? We can get a rough idea from the information provided by the system.
His name is Zhou Weimin, and he was sent to the countryside as an educated youth.
On the surface, he claimed it was for the development of the countryside, but in reality, he was a weak scholar who couldn't lift a finger or carry anything heavy.
Back then, the number of slots for returning to the city was very limited, and you often needed strong connections to go back. You didn't know how many people could go back over several years.
What's even more despairing is that they don't know when they can go back, or even if they can go back at all.
Seeing no hope of returning to the city, Zhou Weimin set his sights on Shen Ci, the original owner of the body who was young, innocent, and had a pretty face.
He used sweet words to deceive the original owner, making the original owner willingly help him with his work.
He couldn't do the work himself, so he found someone who was both capable and obedient to help him.
At that time, many educated youth chose to form families with locals, get married and have children, just so they could have someone to rely on in the local area.
They came from the city, were unfamiliar with the place, and had very different lifestyles and ideas from the locals. Without anyone to help them, life was very difficult.
This practice wasn't limited to just one educated youth; Zhou Weimin also had this idea, in order to completely bind free laborers and ensure they would have someone to rely on in the village in the future.
But he was very shrewd and left himself a way out. At that time, the concept of the rule of law was very weak in rural areas, and many couples would just have a banquet in the village when they got married.
Zhou Weimin took advantage of a loophole. On the surface, he went to the civil affairs department to register his marriage, but in reality, he obtained a fake, forged marriage certificate from the black market.
The original owner was still young at the time, had not attended school for many years, and knew nothing about the law. At that time, she was overjoyed and immersed in the happiness of getting married.
They didn't realize the marriage certificate was fake, nor did they know what was wrong with the process; they simply believed Zhou Weimin wholeheartedly.
The original owner was easily deceived.
Zhou Weimin was worried that he would never be able to return to the city, so he simply settled down in the countryside. With a wife and the help of his parents-in-law, his life became much more comfortable.
But he also left himself a way out, in case he had the opportunity to return to the city in the future. He could simply abandon everything in the countryside and go back to the city then.
The marriage certificate was fake, and the subsequent divorce certificate was also fake, but the harm done to the Shen family and the children was real.
With a single move, he shed the burdens of the countryside.
"System, do you have Zhou Weimin's current specific information and address?"
After recalling the information, Shen Ci asked, "I didn't find any useful information in the file other than the name."
"I'm sorry, host, this involves important characters and key points in the plot. You will need to explore and obtain the relevant information on your own."
The system responded mechanically and then readily issued a new task.
"Ding-dong! Mission triggered!"
Only by guiding Lu Jinnian to let go of hatred, forgive the past, and step out of the shadows of the past can he move towards his own light.
Help him let go of the past, focus on his own growth, and grow stronger and more peaceful inside.
Mission Reward: Rescue Points +10%.
Obtain a mysterious legacy.
One private jet and related services.
Hidden Reward: A winery abroad (based on mission completion).
Explore on your own? Shen Ci thought for a moment. Right now, all she knew was the name Zhou Weimin and the direction the educated youth were heading back to the city.
The name must be real. After all, when the educated youth went to the countryside, they didn't come on their own. There were relevant records, so it's unlikely that the village would get the name wrong.
Shen Ci took some time to visit the welfare home and asked Director Lu if there was any more information when he first met Lu Jinnian.
Dean Lu carefully recalled the events, but still came up empty-handed.
There were no surveillance cameras back then, and it was the dead of winter, so late and so cold, with almost no one outside, and the heavy snow could quickly bury people's footprints.
The only letter on Lu Jinnian's person mentioned Shen Ci's name but nothing else.
Besides, eleven years have passed, and many things have changed beyond recognition. If you couldn't find someone back then while they were still around, can you still find them now?
In the past ten years or so, this city has undergone tremendous changes. Even if you had an address, it might not look the same as it used to, or be inhabited by the same people.
The clues seemed to have run dry, but then a sudden thought flashed through Shen Ci's mind: the original owner still had family in the countryside!
She forgot about that!
Zhou Weimin lived in the village for quite some time, and the original owner's parents and fellow villagers might know more about him.
At that time, the original owner was young, but the adults in the family couldn't just let them get married without asking them anything.
Although the information didn't provide much more detail about the scumbag, it did reveal the location of the original owner's family home.
Shen Ci's family home is located in a village called Shenjiagou in Hebei Province. Shen Ci decided that she must go back to Shenjiagou.
The main purpose of going back is to find clues about Zhou Weimin, and it will also be a good opportunity to take Lu Jinnian back to see where he was born, hoping to evoke some childhood memories.
However, before going back to her parents' home, she needs to take care of the things she has to do first.
In addition, we need to find out information about the educated youth who went to the countryside more than ten years ago, and make efforts from all sides to find Zhou Weimin's information as soon as possible.
There is only one way to resolve inner conflicts, escape the darkness of the past, and let go of the past.
It's not about doing nothing and convincing yourself to forgive, but about taking revenge for every wrong done to you and settling every grievance for every wrong done to you.
A knot in one's heart is a knot; it must be untied, not circumvented.
A few days later, the phone rang at home. Shen Ci answered it, and a man's voice came from the other end, sounding very respectful.
"Hello, is this Ms. Shen Ci?"
I am your authorized agent, Zhang Ming. The Mercedes-Benz W126 sedan you ordered from Germany has arrived at Tianjin Port through special channels.
All relevant customs and import procedures have been completed, and it is currently en route to Beijing.
In addition, the preliminary contact work for the overseas precision electronic component production line, which I am responsible for following up on, has been completed, and I have brought the relevant materials with me.
When would be a convenient time for you? I need to have you sign in person to confirm the details and report back to you.
Shen Ci understood. This person was a bonus included in the system rewards. Everything that was a system reward would appear legally and reasonably in the real world.
Did that imported car just fly in from abroad on its own? There must be a reasonable way for it to appear.
The person provided by the system, that is, this agent, is generally a very reliable and capable assistant. Great, I've picked up a capable assistant!
