Wen Tingsong only partially understood what he heard, but he roughly grasped the meaning.
It was all Xu Yisheng's doing.
No wonder he felt so familiar when he first saw Xu Yisheng and Zhang Zhujin; it turns out it was because there was a thief in his house from the very beginning!
The third brother was the first to see his sister. He had said that she looked different, but everyone thought it was just a joke.
I never imagined it was a mistake from the very beginning!
Wen Tingsong took a deep breath, but still couldn't help asking the question that had been buried in his heart: "Why do this?"
Xu Yisheng laughed and said, "It's because your wife is too kind. I killed someone back then and had no money and nowhere to go. Your wife took us in because we were pitiful and my wife was pregnant."
“But the police are chasing us everywhere, and we will be caught one day. We can suffer, but my daughter can’t, so I can only let your daughter suffer in my daughter’s place.”
After saying that, Xu Yisheng's expression suddenly changed: "But who would have thought you would be so heartless! As soon as Wen Li came back, you couldn't wait to drive away the child who had been with you for seventeen years!"
Wen Tingsong looked at Xu Yisheng in disbelief.
Even Wen Sirou, who was in the car, never expected that she and Wen Li would switch lives because of this.
Seeing the pain on the Wen family's faces, Xu Yisheng felt a surge of pleasure. He pressed the gun firmly against Wen Li and suddenly asked, "Is the ten billion you were asked to prepare ready?"
Everyone then came to their senses.
Wen Tingsong quickly nodded: "It's already ready to be shipped over."
"I'll give you half an hour. I need to get the money onto the cargo ship."
“Fine.” Wen Tingsong stretched out his hands, staring intently at Xu Yisheng, afraid that he might hurt Wen Li in his excitement: “As long as you release my daughter, I will forgive and forget what happened back then, and I will not seek revenge on you…”
"Take revenge on me?" Xu Yisheng looked at Wen Tingsong as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. He couldn't help but sneer, "Don't forget, I've been playing you for the past ten years. You want to take revenge on me? Wishful thinking!"
Wen Tingsong didn't want to anger the other party, so he did whatever Xu Yisheng said.
The two sides were deadlocked for half an hour. Wen Xingming was in charge of delivering the money to the port. The two sides communicated by phone. Wen Songming put it on speakerphone, and Xu Yisheng could hear the sound of the cargo ship starting. Xu Yisheng's eyes were full of greed.
Wen Tingsong said, "I've already given you the money, please release my daughter."
"Release her?" Xu Yisheng had already received the money. He had the power to do so. Even if the police investigated, they would find almost nothing. Thinking about being able to take his wife and children abroad and live a carefree life, a wicked smile suddenly appeared on Xu Yisheng's lips: "When did I say I would release her?"
"you……"
Everyone was shocked.
Wen Tingsong's heart leaped into his throat as he heard Xu Yisheng fire a shot with one hand.
"Wen Li should never have been born into this world in the first place, so I will see her off on her journey..."
Snap—
Suddenly, Xu Yisheng turned his face to one side.
Wen Li somehow managed to break free of the ropes, snatched the gun from Wen Tingsong's hand with one hand, and slapped Xu Yisheng hard across the face with the other.
Xu Yisheng's face was slapped to the side.
The sniper who had been lying in ambush nearby did not hesitate and shot him in the head.
Bang!
Xu Yisheng blinked, his mind completely blank.
A dark red hole appeared in the very center of his head. Blood first dripped down drop by drop, and then gushed out like a fountain.
Then, holding onto the car door, he opened his eyes and slowly sat down.
In less than three seconds, Xu Yisheng was dead!
"Aaaaaah!"
Wen Sirou witnessed Xu Yisheng die in front of her, especially when he fell, his head tilted back in the car, his eyes wide open, his mouth slightly agape. This scene deeply pierced Wen Sirou's heart.
She broke down and screamed.
Zhang Zhujin, who was in front, immediately reacted and stepped on the gas to move forward. However, all that could be heard was the sound of the gas pedal cutting through the sky, and the taxi did not move an inch.
A second earlier, Wen Li bit her finger and quickly drew a calming talisman on the car door.
Wen Sirou looked at Wen Li, whose car door was still open. She watched as Wen Li bent down and said in a light tone, "Actually, drawing talismans doesn't necessarily have to be on paper."
——
Wen Sirou and Zhang Zhujin were caught on the spot, while Xu Yisheng died on the spot.
Police investigation revealed that Xu Yisheng had gone tomb raiding with others twenty years ago, but due to a dispute over the division of the loot, he shot three of his companions in the head and fled.
During this time, he met his current wife, Zhang Zhujin, and shortly after they got together, she became pregnant with Wen Sirou.
At the time, the two were living in poverty. Mrs. Wen saw that Zhang Zhujin was in the same month as her and felt sorry for her, so she let Zhang Zhujin work at home.
Two women gave birth at the same time, and both were on the run. Not wanting their only daughter to suffer, they decided to switch the two children.
However, the Wen family had many layers of security at the time, making it extremely difficult to switch the child. But by sheer coincidence, Xu Yisheng had read some strange and mysterious books on magic while stealing the treasure, which could temporarily manipulate people's minds, and that's how the child was switched.
When Wen Li returned, he used the same method to manipulate the interns at the paternity testing center, causing them to switch the order of events.
Wen Sirou learned about her background by accident when she was eight years old, and she chose to keep it a secret after being in a panic.
The truth came to light, and the police released a statement of several thousand words, which they then posted on Weibo.
This Weibo post quickly attracted the attention of netizens.
Sometimes netizens' investigative abilities are terrifying; they quickly deduced from the name and snippets of information provided by the police that the kidnapped person was Wen Li.
