Chapter 650: Same Birthday
Xinghe and Mubai suddenly looked at each other. Mubai asked cautiously, “Grandfather, what does this have to do with the Shen family’s second daughter?”
Elder Xi explained, “Oh, I forgot to tell you that Lin Shuang and Shen Ru were born in the same hospital and on the same date…” At this point, Elder Xi’s face fell. The shock was mirrored on Mubai’s and Xinghe’s faces as well. They looked at one another because their train of thought led them to the same horrifying conclusion!
Xinghe stood up suddenly, her eyes blazing with excitement. “This Shen Ru does have secret dealings with the Lin family!”
Elder Xi said with a serious expression, “But is this possible? Would the Lin family really do something this inhumane?”
“We’ll find out soon enough!” Xinghe turned to Mubai and said, “We need Lu Qi’s help.”
“I’ll contact him now.” Mubai moved to oblige. Xinghe then turned to make a request of Ali’s group. “I need one of you to go back to City T to fetch someone for me.”
“Who?” they asked.
“The girl we saved from Country Y.”
As comprehension dawned on Ali, she stuttered excitedly, “I think I understand what Lin Shuang’s problem is! She and that girl, they…”
Xinghe nodded with a smile. “That’s right, they look uncannily similar.”
In this world, there might be many that looked similar to one another, but Xinghe felt there couldn’t be so many coincidences. The girl was found in IV Syndicate’s main base, this meant that her identity was definitely something important.
Perhaps she was really related to Lin Shuang. If she was, then didn’t this mean the Lin family was related to IV Syndicate as well?
The more Xinghe thought about it, the more suspicions she found regarding the Lin family. This time, she predicted they would not only ruin the Lin family but also exposed many hidden conspiracies!
Xinghe’s intuition had always been crazy sharp, since her suspicion was already on the Lin family, then she would pursue them to the end of the world. Mubai shared her sentiment.
They contacted Lu Qi and revealed to him certain information in confidence. Lu Qi agreed to lend his aid.
Sam and Wolf returned to City T to fetch the girl.
Now, they only needed to wait. After the answer was revealed, a raging storm would ravage through City A with the Lin family at the very eye of the tornado!
…
After Lin Xuan and Tong Yan got engaged, Lin Xuan would take her to visit Shen family, Tong family, and even the president and Madam President.
Lin Xuan was a dashing young man with a way to get into people’s hearts. Through his efforts, their prejudice towards the Lin family slowly lightened. Furthermore, this was the happiest they had ever seen Tong Yan, so they gradually convinced themselves perhaps this was not a bad idea for Tong Yan to marry Lin Xuan.
Their impression of the Lin family slowly improved.
Shen Ru praised the Lin family in front of them daily and slowly they felt that perhaps the Lin family was not as bad as they thought. After all, on many incidents, there was only suspicion and no solid proof. They had been friends for so many years and they had shown nothing worth suspecting. So perhaps… the Lin family was really innocent?
Other than helping the Lin family clear their name, Shen Ru even worked extra hard to push the blame onto the Xi family. It was because the Xi family wanted to take revenge on the Lin family that they would come up with so many lies to frame the Lin family.
All of them were led astray by Shen Ru’s misdirection. They slowly become confused, but it was true that they had started mending bridges with the Lin family and distancing themselves away from the Xi family.
Chapter 651: President… Is Dying
All these changes were good news for the Lin family. Good things kept happening for them, one after another. Elder Lin was satisfied; the set-up he did so many years ago finally paid off handsomely.
After the Lin family won the presidency, Shen Ru would find a reason to cancel Tong Yan and Lin Xuan’s engagement. By then, Tong Yan would lose her position, so they wouldn’t need a useless girl like her to muddle their gene pool.
Of course, nothing really happened between Tong Yan and Lin Xuan, it was all a front. Tong Yan was heads over heels in love with Lin Xuan, so she didn’t mind the rumors ruining her name as long as she could be together with him. Lin Xuan didn’t mind the fake engagement as well since they would never really get married.
Their relationship bordered on incestuous, but it wouldn’t be found out. All of this was for the Lin family’s future.
The president’s body was deteriorating, and the Lin family fidgeted about anxiously. Victory was just around the corner. They wished desperately for the president to announce his resignation and start the next election cycle…
However, at the last minute when everything was right before their grasp, Lu Qi suddenly announced that the mechanical heart research was completed!
The president was going to be saved!
This news landed like a physical blow on the Lin family. This news came to them from Shen Ru.
“Lu Qi really finished building the heart?” Elder Lin was in disbelief. “Didn’t they say they couldn’t find a suitable material?”
“They’ve found it. According to Lu Qi, the Xi family has helped him locate the material and then Xia Xinghe has constructed the machinery!” Shen Ru spat with hatred and derision. “How come that b*tch keeps doing things in the dark?”
It was the same with the mechanical heart design. She kept doing stuff behind the scenes, giving away no information of her current progress.
Elder Lin’s face was drawn. “That woman has to be removed! She has foiled our plans again and again!”
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, he didn’t expect the woman to be so capable either. When she consumed Bao Hwa, he thought she was only a shrewd businesswoman, he didn’t think she could accomplish something like a mechanical heart…
They had truly underestimated her.
“Grandfather is right, I will find a way to take her out and ruin the mechanical heart in the process,” Lin Xuan stood up and announced like a hellish angel.
However, at that moment, Elder Lin’s phone rang. It was from the Madam President…
Elder Lin answered the phone with a curious heart, “Hello, Madam, why do you call?”
“Elder Lin, I have something important to discuss with all of you, can you all come to the president’s house now? Bring along Mayor Lin and the rest,” Madam President replied in a distressed tone.
Elder Lin was alerted. “Madam, what is this you wish to discuss with so many of us?”
“It has to do with the president’s health. Come over now and I will tell all of you.” Then she hung up.
Elder Lin closed his phone and told the room, “The Madam wants all of us to go to the president’s house, she said she wishes to discuss the president’s health with us.”
Lin Kang was confused. “She wants all of us to be there?”
Elder Lin nodded and right then, he received another phone call. It was from Shen Ru. The Madam President also called her and asked her to come to the president’s house.
Shen Ru put down the phone and said to herself, “Could it be that the president… is dying?”
Chapter 652: The Skies Are Changing
This thought excited everyone from the Lin family.
“This is not impossible.” The excitement in Elder Lin’s eyes couldn’t be suppressed. “She wouldn’t have called all of us there otherwise.”
“I’ll call home to ask!” To confirm their suspicion, Shen Ru gave Elder Shen and the Tong family a call. They were all invited.
Even Elder Shen suspected that the president was dying. It was the only reason all of them would be invited, they were the closest to the president. If the president suddenly died, this would be a national crisis!
The Madam President must have called them all to ask for their aid. After the confirmation, the Lin family couldn’t contain their elation and hurried to the president’s house in droves. Even the Shen family and Tong family were in full attendance.
It was their expectation that the power structure of Hwa Xia would change tomorrow. Their feelings were complicated, some were nervous, others melancholic.
When Elder Lin saw Elder Tong and Elder Shen, he even put on a pretense, acting like he really cared about the president’s health. Elder Shen said, “No matter what, let’s not stay here and make guesses. Let’s go in, maybe something else has happened.”
“You’re right,” Elder Lin replied a bit too excitedly. Who could blame him?
If the president was dying, then the country would begin another election and the Lin family had the biggest chance to win, therefore, the Lin family couldn’t wait to trample over the president’s dead body into their bright future.
However, when they stepped into the meeting hall, they realized that the Xi family was also there!
Not only were Elder Xi and Mubai there, even Jiangnian and Munan were there in their imposing military outfits. Noticing them, the crowd’s suspicion was further confirmed.
Right then, Madam President was led into the room by Lu Qi and Xinghe.
Tong Yan was the first to ask in a hurry, “Auntie, did you call us all here because the president is dying? What happened, how did this happen so suddenly?”
“Little Yan, watch your manners,” Shen Ru berated her softly but she too asked with concern, “Sis, why did you call for all of us?”
Madam President looked at the pair of mother and daughter, and for some reason, Shen Ru could see disappointment and other emotions behind them. However, her sister seemed to be trying very hard to hide it.
The Madam President sighed. “You will find out soon enough.”
“The president is dying, right?” Tong Yan blurted out rudely again. “But didn’t they say Xia Xinghe has finished constructing the mechanical heart and the president was saved? So why is this happening…”
At this point, Tong Yan flared up again and went after Xinghe. “Xia Xinghe, if anything happens to the president, then you’re dead! Why didn’t you say you’ve found the material and insist on doing things behind everyone’s back? Are you so desperate to claim this credit? I’m telling you, this time you’ve not only failed to do that but you’re going to die without even knowing why!”
Elder Lin also added pointedly and severely, “Your Xi family surreptitiously built the mechanical heart, so it is not out of question that you people harbor some malicious intention. If what you did harm the president and something really did happen to him, then your Xi family will be the nation’s traitors!”
Chapter 653: Waited For So Long
“That’s right, Xia Xinghe, you’ve been unwilling to reveal the information about the material so there must be something fishy about you!” Shen Ru interrogated her, “You plan to hurt the president and betray the country, isn’t it? You traitor!”
Xinghe could only laugh facing their various accusations. Her dark, cold eyes stared them down and said, “That’s right, our Xi family purposely didn’t want to announce the research progress, but not because we have malicious intention, it was to guard against you people that have vicious goals!”
Elder Lin was shocked before he narrowed his eyes dangerously. “What do you mean by that?”
“Xia Xinghe, what are you blabbering about? If you don’t make yourself clear, we are going to see you in court for slandering our name!” Now that Tong Yan was the Lin family’s daughter-in-law, her ‘our’ no longer referred to the Tong family or the Shen family but the Lin family. She wanted Xinghe to know that she, Tong Yan, was now on the Lin family’s side. If she was there, she wouldn’t give Xinghe any chance to bully the Lin family!
Xinghe shook her head witnessing her idiotic performance. She said with derision, “Heiress Tong, I think you will soon see that you are not as important as you think.”
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by that?” Tong Yan demanded. The Lin family’s, including Shen Ru’s, faces darkened. What Xinghe said made their heart shake from unease…
“What do I mean? Ask Elder Lin’s only daughter, Lin family’s fourth daughter and you’ll understand.” Xinghe scanned the rest of them and asked with a raised eyebrow, “By the way, where is the fourth miss, why isn’t she here?”
A flash of deep anxiety flashed across Elder Lin’s eyes. He calmed himself down and demanded, “What does have to do with you which of the Lin family’s members came? Madam, why did you summon us here? Don’t tell me it’s to make us listen to this woman’s mad ravings!”
“That’s right, Daughter, why did you call us?” Elder Shen was equally confused, so was the rest of the room. However, they felt the purpose might have nothing to do the president but plenty to do with the Lin family…
Madam President plopped down in a chair and sighed. “The reason I summoned all of you is because I have something to announce. Xinghe will give you the details so everyone please sit and listen quietly.”
The anxiety in the room heightened. They sat down with serious expressions, only the Xi family was as cool as ever.
Xinghe stood motionless. Madam President shared a signal with her and said, “Go ahead, I trust in you.”
Xinghe nodded. She knew that Madam President at that moment must be incredibly tired, she couldn’t bring herself to tell the truth.
However, Xinghe was more than willing to take up the responsibility to expose the Lin family in front of everyone!
This was the revenge she had been waiting for so long. Ever since Mubai’s accident, she had been planning and waiting for this moment. It had finally arrived.
The Xi family had long anticipated this as well. For this moment, they had sacrificed so much and waited so long.
Thankfully, today, everything was coming to an end!
With a measure of finality, Xinghe looked at the Lin family with a pair of eyes that were chilled to the core with hatred. She made sure everyone there saw it. A giant feeling of unease cropped up in everyone’s heart, especially the Lin family’s. They wanted to escape for some reason.
The royal troublemaker, Tong Yan, who was the youngest there, yelled out impatiently, “Xia Xinghe, what is it that you want to announce? Get to the point quickly!”
Chapter 654: The Lin Family Has to Die Now
“Your wish is my command so listen well. Your Lin family’s scheme has been exposed!” Xinghe announced the loudest she could as she pointed directly at the bunch of weasels. Everyone in the Lin family’s hearts definitely skipped a beat! Everyone whipped their heads around to look at her. Elder Lin’s face quivered uncontrollably facing Xinghe’s penetrating gaze.
The other people from the Lin family didn’t have a presentable expression as well.
The Shen family and Tong family were shocked. Lin family’s scheme… What scheme?
“Preposterous!” Elder Lin slammed on the table and glared at Xinghe like he was going to swallow her alive. “Such an insolent little girl, do you know who you’re talking to‽ If you dare to say such slanderous words again, I will make your life a living hell. Even if you have the Xi family behind your back, I will not let you off the hook so easily! I’m warning you, Xi family, if any of you dare to come up against us, my Lin family will fight tooth and nail until the end of times!”
Elder Lin thought he could scare them off with threats but Xinghe and the Xi family were not afraid of him. Xinghe would let them know, when facing their enemies, they would never retreat and would only become more ruthless than them!
“There’s no need to fight until the end of times because your Lin family will have to die now,” Xinghe enunciated word by word. “I believe that, not only will our Xi family want you people dead, the Shen family will want that as well!”
Elder Shen was befuddled. “What does this have to do with our Shen family? Xinghe, what have you been talking about?”
Xinghe turned to look at him and said directly, “Elder Shen, you might not know this, but your second daughter is not your daughter but the Lin family’s daughter. For the purpose of their own scheme, the Lin family traded their daughter with yours so many years ago. So, the daughter you’ve been raising for so many years is actually the Lin family’s real fourth daughter.”
“You’re lying—”
“What did you say‽”
Shen Ru and Elder Shen exclaimed in unison. Old Madam Shen and the Tong family were stunned beyond words.
The Lin family was mortified. How did Xia Xinghe know about this?
Tong Yan was appalled. What is this b*tch talking about?
“Xia Xinghe, you are talking nonsense! If I’m not from Shen family then what am I? Xia Xinghe, you’ve crossed the line, how can you slander my name like this? Security, detain her immediately! Sis, quick get the men to capture her!” Shen Ru yelled agitatedly like a mad woman. No one was listening to her.
Xinghe glared at her and said, “Shen Ru, you’ve known about your identity for some time already, that’s the only reason why you’ve been so willing to help the Lin family all of a sudden. Although, I must say, I didn’t expect you to pimp out your own daughter to save this situation. Cousins getting married, if this is not incest, I have no idea what is.”
“You’re lying! This is slander!” Shen Ru was shaking from both anger and fear. “B*tch, how dare you talk to me like this? I’m going to kill you!”
Shen Ru charged at Xinghe violently. Xinghe easily side-stepped out of her way, causing Shen Ru to trip and fall to the ground.
“Mommy—” Tong Yan rushed to help her mother. She glared with intense hatred at Xinghe. “B*tch, you’re going to pay for treating my mother this way!”
Like her mother, Tong Yan, who harbored an equal measure of anger and fear in her heart, also charged at Xinghe…
Chapter 655: DNA Test
Mubai, who stood at the ready, pulled Xinghe away and launched a precise kick on Tong Yan’s ankle. Tong Yan crumbled to the floor with a pained scream.
“Enough!” Madam President suddenly roared. She glared severely at Shen Ru and Tong Yan. “This is the president’s house so behave accordingly. Create a disturbance again and I will have all of you detained!”
“Auntie…” Tong Yan’s eyes were watery from being scolded. “This is not our fault, it’s Xia Xinghe’s. She slandered our name like this so how can we stand there and do nothing‽ Auntie, you have to help us!”
“Sis, you have to help me straighten this out because I will not suffer such an insult!” Shen Ru yelled angrily.
Elder Shen suddenly pushed through the crowd and stared intently at Xinghe. “Who told you to say those things, where is your proof? Who had you say those things‽”
Elder Shen was shaking both in his words and in his body. Xinghe knew he was having trouble accepting this reality but she powered on. “No one told me this, I discovered this myself, and I’ve done a DNA test, Shen Ru is indeed Elder Lin’s daughter.”
What‽
Xinghe’s statement was another bomb. The Lin family and Shen Ru’s faces were filled with disbelief. She has done a DNA test…
Lu Qi suddenly stepped forth and passed a document to Elder Shen. “Elder Shen, this is the test result. Shen Ru is definitely Elder Lin’s daughter, we got all the information from the DNA bank.”
Looking at the report in Lu Qi’s hands, Elder Shen’s face was blanched. He didn’t even dare accept it.
Elder Lin’s and Shen Ru’s faces were equally white. They could see dark in front of their eyes. They didn’t expect things to turn out like this. When did the Xi family notice the discrepancies? How come we didn’t notice anything?
“No, that is a fake! I’m not a Lin, I’m the Shen family’s daughter! How can I be one of the Lin family’s people, that is falsified! Father, you mustn’t believe them…” Shen Ru yelled as she climbed up and prepared to charge at the document and tear it apart.
However, the moment she wanted to do that, Elder Shen suddenly turned to look at her, his eyes were pools of black holes. Shen Ru stopped and was frozen to the spot.
“Father…” She asked with a shaking voice, “Don’t you believe me?”
Elder Shen looked at her with immense pain in his eyes. He asked, “Is this why you have been helping Lin family? Tell me honestly, have you known the truth all along?”
“No! I haven’t been helping them, I didn’t… Father, you have to believe me, I’m really your daughter, how could I not be your daughter?” Shen Ru explained in a hurry. However, this only made her look more suspicious because she was never good at acting!
Furthermore, Elder Shen had raised her, so how could be unable to tell when she was lying?
He stared at her and said, “Xiao Ru, tell me honestly, when do you learn the truth? If you’re willing to come clean, then perhaps I can still forgive you. If you still refuse to confess, then you are no longer my daughter!”
Chapter 656: She Has Seen Through Everything
“Dad?” Shen Ru took a startled step back, what should she do?
Should she deny it or admit it?
No, she couldn’t admit it, but what else could she do?
She didn’t have the guts to admit it…
Shen Ru was shaking from head to toe but no words came out of her mouth. Tong Yan suddenly rushed over and took her arm, yelling, “Mom, why are you hesitating? Quickly tell Grandpa that this is a fake, you are not the Lin family’s daughter. Do it, quick!”
“…” No matter how Tong Yan forced her, Shen Ru couldn’t find the words. She also wanted to say she wasn’t, but what was her evidence?
Tong Yan’s heart filled with fear looking at her mother acting this way. “Mommy, you are really the Lin family’s daughter, you’re not grandpa’s daughter? Tell me this is not real, Mommy, she is lying, isn’t she?”
“…” Alas Shen Ru still didn’t answer. Tong Yan looked around the room for help and her eyes settled on her fiancé.
She rushed to his side and begged, “Brother Xuan, tell everyone this is not real! How can my mother be a Lin? We are not cousins! Brother Xuan, tell me this is all wrong, it has to be, right?”
To her despair, Lin Xuan’s only reply was his drawn face.
Tong Yan let go of him and stumbled a few steps back. Her body was shaking as she spoke to herself, “No, this is not true, someone tell me that none of this is real…”
How could she not be the Shen family’s granddaughter and, worse than that, be Lin Xuan’s cousin‽ This had to be fake!
“This is all real.” Just as Tong Yan was trying to convince herself, Xinghe’s clear voice rang out, shattering the safety bubble she was building for herself. “Shen Ru is a Lin. The Lin family was vying for the Shen family’s power and influence so many years ago, so their devious plan started then. They wished to use this connection to get to the highest office in this country. The president is down with illness and their plan was close to fruition, but at the last minute, I appeared to ruin their plan and so they made use of Tong Yan to remove me. Alas their plan failed and backfired. To regain their status, they made use of Shen Ru, to use her to resolve the hatred so many families had against them. They even allowed Tong Yan and Lin Xuan to get engaged to strengthen the ties between all the families even though they are cousins. They did all these simply because they want to be president! For that position, they were willing to sacrifice everything, their own daughter so many years ago, Lin Yun early this year, and Tong Yan now. As long as they can get to the top, even their own flesh and blood will be sacrificed and used! Elder Lin, am I right or wrong?”
Elder Lin’s pupil narrowed, and his gaze was as dark as the starless night sky. He glared viciously at Xinghe. If possible, he would snap her neck there and then!
Everyone from the Lin family that knew the truth all looked at her the same way because she had ruined everything; she had wasted all of their effort that went back years!
However, they wouldn’t give up just like that, not without a fight.
Elder Lin chuckled darkly. “Where is your proof? If there is no proof, then these are nothing but slander! Our Lin family will never forgive you, and you will soon find out what the consequence of crossing us is!”
“You still need proof?” Xinghe grabbed the DNA report from Lu Qi’s hands and tossed it at him. “This is best proof there is!”
Chapter 657: Done on Purpose
The report landed by his feet and Xinghe questioned, “How can you explain the fact that Shen Ru is your daughter? Don’t think all of us are dummies who will think the things that happened recently are really coincidences! Shen Ru has been openly helping you people and now I think everyone here can understand why.”
The Shen family and Tong family were shocked, but now that they thought about it, Shen Ru had been incredibly suspicious. She was bending over backwards to aid the Lin family. No one could believe she didn’t know about the truth. Furthermore, with the DNA report there, they had confirmed Elder Lin had known about the fact that Shen Ru was his biological daughter all along.
Shen Ru’s husband wasn’t in City A, so he wasn’t there that day. Therefore, it was her father-in-law, Elder Tong that demanded, “So you really did cooperate with the Lin family to help further their scheme?”
“I didn’t…” Shen Ru denied it unconsciously. Then again, what choices did she have then but to push all the blame onto the Lin family?
“Father, you have to believe me! I didn’t willingly work with them, I also only recently found out the truth! It was them who forced me to work for them or else they would expose my identity and ruin my life. Father, I was too afraid, so I was forced into helping them. I really didn’t harbor any ill intentions. Sis, I really didn’t…” Shen Ru explained in a hurry, at the same time selling the Lin family out, proving the validity of Xinghe’s claim.
Shen Ru was going to be the Lin family’s trump card, which was why they made the swap so many years ago!
Elder Shen suddenly turned to Elder Lin and roared, “Lin Zhenghwa, where is my daughter‽ How have you treated my daughter for so many years?”
His face changed the moment he finished his question because the answer came to him immediately. The sickly Lin family fourth daughter, the one who was sent away since she was born, could she be his real daughter?
It had to be. No wonder the Lin family hid her from public eye for so many years. They were afraid the truth would be exposed!
Elder Shen felt unspeakable rage assault his heart when he realized his own daughter had been treated like dirt for decades while he had been helping the perpetrator raise his daughter in luxury!
The emotions were so sudden and intense that he could see spots of darkness blossoming before his eyes.
“Father…”
“Elder Shen!”
Madam President and Lu Qi who were closest to him quickly went to support him. Elder Shen calmed himself down in their arms and grabbed Madam President’s arm and wheezed out painfully, “Daughter, you mustn’t let them get away. You need to force them to hand over your sister; we mustn’t let her suffer anymore.”
Madam President nodded and said, “Father, I understand.”
Then she turned to look at Elder Lin and demanded, “Lin Zhenghwa, now that the truth is out there, what do you have to say for yourself?”
Elder Lin had been seething since Xinghe exposed them, but he was someone who could plan for decades ahead so why would he surrender so easily?
He closed his eyes to make a decision. He said, “That’s right, I’m guilty as charged! However, this was all my idea, it has nothing to do with other people from the Lin family. Plus, my crime is out of a parent’s compassion, I just didn’t want my daughter to suffer with the Lin family, so I had to make the switch so many years ago. There was no greater motive. Everything is my fault, and my fault alone!”
They were surprised with how prepared he was. He was willing to shoulder the whole blame and had already came up with his defense. Elder Xi scolded him for his despicability.
Chapter 658: None of You Are Escaping!
Befitting of the name family of weasels, none of the other people from the Lin family said a word. This way, no one could tell whether they had known about this before or not. The Lin family was indeed not simple. Even under such circumstances, they managed to regain their footing with such expedience and lower the damage to the bare minimum.
The others couldn’t help but be spooked by their scheming minds. Everyone knew that all of them were equally guilty, but there was no way to pin the crime on all of them. They only had the DNA test as evidence and Elder Lin had shouldered all the blame on his own, so it was impossible to ruin the whole Lin family in one fell swoop.
Elder Shen pointed at him, shaking with anger. “Lin Zhenghwa, you are such a despicable human being! All of you from the Lin family are the same; every single one of you is guilty!”
“That’s right, all of you knew about this all along. Don’t think you can shoulder all the crime on your own and muddle the investigation with a simple reason. All of you will have to undergo interrogation and investigation!” Madam President announced with authority.
Elder Lin said with apparent repentance and regret, “Regardless of whether you believe it or not, what I said is the whole truth. We of the Lin family have been upstanding citizens, and there is no scheming of any kind. I admit my mistake for switching the babies at birth so there is nothing I can do about that. I’m willing to accept any and all punishments you’re going to give me.”
“Such an eloquence performance.” Xinghe suddenly scoffed and stared straight at him. “Elder Lin, your crime is so big that there is no need for due process because we all know the result. I have to say, you’ve come up with a Band-Aid solution quite expediently, but you really think this can save the rest of your Lin family? Think again because none of you Lins are going to escape unscathed!”
Xinghe then turned to Madam President and said, “Madam, I still have an important witness. I ask that you allow us to bring her in.”
Madam President was first shocked but announced quickly and with anticipation, “Quick, get her in here!”
Xinghe shared a look with Munan and the latter walked out of the room.
Anxiety cropped up in Elder Lin’s heart again. It was the same for the rest of the Lin family. Who is this witness Xia Xinghe is referring to?
Lin Xuan’s fingers twitched involuntarily as he narrowed his gaze at Xinghe. He wanted to kill all of them there, especially this Xia Xinghe, he would torture her first!
However, he realized with a start, he had no weapons on him. That was the protocol when entering the president’s house. Lin Xuan noticed, perhaps this was Xinghe’s plan all along, to have Madam President lure them to the president’s house because they couldn’t do anything there.
Therefore, the only thing they could do was to escape as gracefully as they could, or else it would really be over for all of them!
Elder Lin came to the same conclusion, which was why he was so ready to shoulder all the blame. As long as the rest of the Lin family could leave the president’s house safely then they still had a chance.
They might even have a chance at revenge to pay back everyone there!
Therefore, no matter what crimes they pulled out that day, Elder Lin was going to shoulder them all. No one was able to harm the rest of the Lin family while he was still there!
The Lin family thought the same. As long as Elder Lin was there, they would eventually escape unscathed.
However, when they saw the woman Munan brought in, the Lin family’s faces dropped immediately.
Chapter 659: Elder Lin’s Granddaughter
Especially Lin Xuan, his face showed obvious shock!
This extremely calculative man had never exposed his inner emotion before, but now, he could no longer hide the surprise and consternation within him because the woman Munan brought in was someone who couldn’t possibly be there! Why is she here? How did the Xi family find her?
Lin Xuan was mortified and clueless. Elder Lin shared a look with him and plain disbelief was communicated between them.
The rest of the people were confused about this young girl’s identity. Only the Lin family seemed to know who she was…
The girl stepped forward and glared fiendishly at Elder Lin and Lin Xuan. Noticing their pale faces, she laughed satisfactorily and said, “Grandfather, cousin, surprised to see me? Didn’t think I’m still alive and kicking, right?”
Grandfather? Cousin? Everyone else widened their eyes in shock. This was Elder Lin’s granddaughter? In other words, Lin Shuang’s daughter?
But they had never heard of the news that Lin Shuang was married and had a daughter.
Elder Shen and Old Madam Shen studied the girl closely, attempting to gleam some information from her. It was the same for Madam President. All of them wanted to know if she was really Elder Lin’s granddaughter!
Elder Lin pointed at her with a shaking finger. “How can you be here‽ Impossible, you shouldn’t be here!”
“What is happening?” Lin Xuan asked no one in particular.
The girl glared at them and smirked. “That’s right, I shouldn’t be here because you people sent me to a faraway country for your cruel experiments. The experiment lasted for five long years! You almost killed me because I was put under so many drugs that I was like a living zombie, so yes, I shouldn’t be here because I should be dead! However, the Gods have eyes, I’ve recovered! And now, it’s my time for revenge because I’m going to expose everything that you’ve done!”
Elder Lin and Lin Xuan were beyond mortified, they saw despair there and then. It was truly over for the Lin family…
“What experiments? What did they do to you?” Madam President anxiously.
Being reminded of her past, the girl suddenly had tears in her eyes. She hissed through gritted teeth, “Human experimentation, they used me in human experimentation!”
Everyone there was shocked, even those who really didn’t know from the Lin family. Human experimentation… How was that possible‽
The word alone made the hairs on several people rise. The Lin family really did such a thing on another human being…
How could they do that to Elder Lin’s granddaughter‽
No, wait, Tong Yan was Elder Lin’s real granddaughter. So, this girl was actually Elder Shen’s real granddaughter?
This possibility changed the faces of everyone there. Their hatred towards the Lin family reach a new feverish height. How could they do something like this to someone else’s stolen granddaughter‽
Elder Shen asked the girl with his body visibly shaking, “You’re my real granddaughter, aren’t you‽ Why did they choose you for their experiments? Child, you have to tell me everything today because I will help you find your justice. The whole Lin family is coming down, believe me, I will make them pay dearly for what they did to you!”
