“Don’t worry, I won’t come looking for you because you will never win against Feng Jing.”
Faced with the humiliation from her son, Luo Yinghong’s eyes turned red but she did not try and hold him back like she used to. Because she knew, Feng Jing’s existence meant that their relationship would only drift further and further apart.
Afterwards, Luo Yinghong packed her belongings and left the family home as her son watched secretly in surprise. He then returned to Feng Jing and said, “My mom doesn’t seem to be joking this time.”
“Of course she’s not joking, she’s even contacted Tangning for help,” Feng Jing said as she sat in the living room sipping wine, dressed in a set of satin pajamas. “But, it’s no use. Even if she’s found Tangning, she’s still no match against me,” Feng Jing said with extreme confidence.
After all, she still had a trump card in her hands.
…
Lin Qian never expected that Feng Jing would come looking for her. Assuming that it was because of Luo Yinghong, she attended the meeting after speaking to Tangning.
However, after arriving at the hotel, Feng Jing did not mention Luo Yinghong at all. Instead, she analyzed Lin Qian in detail and warmly welcomed her to sit down.
Lin Qian wasn’t used to being treated this way, so she said, “If there’s something you want to say, then say it. Stop putting on an act.”
Feng Jing lifted her head and looked at Lin Qian. A moment later, her eyes turned red, “Qian Qian…”
“Ms. Feng, we’re not very familiar with each other,” Lin Qian felt disgusted by Feng Jing.
“Qian Qian…” Feng Jing repeated, ignoring Lin Qian’s disgust as she grabbed onto her hands and began to cry.
“What are you doing?” Lin Qian asked angrily as she pushed her away.
“It’s mom’s fault for losing you…” Feng Jing took a few steps back and suddenly knelt on the floor in agony, “Mom has searched everywhere for you over the years. It wasn’t easy, but I finally found you.”
Lin Qian froze in shock, finally realizing what was happening. She then laughed, “Ms. Feng, have you made a mistake?”
“How could I make a mistake? Didn’t you visit the police station recently to do a fingerprint test? I’ve been on the lookout for you, so I often visit the police station. It was the police that notified me of your results…” Feng Jing said with a face full of tears. “If you don’t believe me, have a look at this report.”
Lin Qian was dumbfounded as her mind went blank. She couldn’t possibly except that this thief was her mother.
“Qian Qian…you are really my daughter.”
Lin Qian wasn’t stupid. Even though she looked at the report, she did not believe Feng Jing’s words without any trace of doubt. After all, she wasn’t a naive little girl that believed everything she heard.
“Qian Qian…”
“Stop calling me that. I don’t like it,” Lin Qian said uncomfortably. “To be honest, even though you’ve come crying to me, I don’t know how I’m supposed to believe you. So, I’m going to look into this matter further before I come to a conclusion.”
“Qian Qian, mom didn’t mean to lose you…You need to forgive me.”
Lin Qian was not blinded by this so-called reunion. So, she simply replied in a cold tone, “I will know the truth after further investigation.”
After speaking, Lin Qian stood up and left without even taking a sip from her cup of coffee.
And, as soon as Lin Qian left, Feng Jing dried her tears and drank her coffee like normal. It was almost like she didn’t know the woman that had just put on a pity act.
…
Of course, Lin Qian’s heart wasn’t completely unmoved. At least, when she boarded her car, she found her grip tighten around the report that Feng Jing had given her.
But, she didn’t have time to feel depressed. Even if Feng Jing was actually her mother, she still needed to investigate the truth behind the entire story.
After seeing Feng Jing, Lin Qian went to find Tangning. In her subconscious, there were only two people that she trusted completely: one was Tangning and the other was Li Jin. But, Li Jin was currently completing a mission at the military base and wouldn’t be home in a few days.
After seeing the report in Lin Qian’s hands, Tangning furrowed her brows.
She did not believe that Feng Jing came to reunite with her daughter because of genuine feelings.
Even though Lin Qian was investigating this matter because of her upcoming marriage, everything was too much of a coincidence.
She didn’t believe that Feng Jing was free of motives.
“What do you plan to do now?” Tangning asked.
Lin Qian looked down and shook her head blankly, “I’m not sure either. I just needed someone to talk to. If Luo Yinghong finds out about my relationship with Feng Jing, she might lose trust in me and even resent me.”
“First, we need to find out the truth behind the entire incident. There’s a big difference between whether Feng Jing lost you or abandoned you.”
“Apart from that, as long as you keep work strictly professional, I’m sure that Hong Jie won’t feel any resentment towards you. She is different to Feng Jing.”
“By the way, do you also want to know who your father is?”
Lin Qian shook her head. She knew that someone like Feng Jing couldn’t possibly be involved with a good man.
Tangning nodded as she patted Lin Qian on the shoulder, “Don’t be upset. No matter how bad things get, you still have us.”
Lin Qian’s eyes turned red, but she quickly resisted from crying, “Don’t worry. A small matter like this won’t be able to hurt me.”
“If you can’t hold on, then let me know.”
“I’m fine.” After speaking, Lin Qian gently hugged Tangning and left Hyatt Regency.
A moment later, she returned to the agency to meet with Luo Yinghong.
Luo Yinghong was in the middle of a class. She was trying to regain the skills she once had, in a short period of time.
Because of Feng Jing, Lin Qian developed feelings of guilt towards Luo Yinghong even though nothing had been proven yet.
…
That night, after Mo Ting returned home, Tangning quickly explained everything that happened that day to him.
As soon as Tangning was done, Mo Ting immediately pulled her into his embrace, “Lin Qian isn’t as weak as you think she is. Feng Jing is merely parading around like a clown.”
“I’m scared…”
“Are you scared that Feng Jing revealed her identity because she wants to use Lin Qian?”
“If your guess is right, then there’s no point worrying about it. I’m sure Lin Qian can differentiate between right and wrong. Even if she can’t do it herself, she still has us to guide her,” Mo Ting comforted. He knew that Tangning had been disregarded by her family from a young age, so she empathized with Lin Qian.
Lin Qian had already suffered so much because of the Quan Family. Would she actually let her own mother hurt her?
If Feng Jing actually dared to do it, Tangning would do everything to make Feng Jing suffer a hundred times more than Lin Qian!
Soon, Lin Qian returned home. As soon as she stepped in, she found the Li Elders discussing the wedding guest list. This made her feel extremely bad. Because, she didn’t actually mind her background – but she did mind Feng Jing as a person!
Worst of all, she was afraid that a father would appear out of nowhere and embarrass the Li Family even more.
