Chapter 225: 107 That Year (First Watch)_3

As soon as Ming Jing was mentioned, the old lady’s expression immediately became alert, “Why are you asking about Master Ming Jing? Hasn’t she returned to the Zhu family now? It shouldn’t have anything to do with Master

Ming Xin’s background, right?”

Afterward, he couldn’t pry any more words out of the old woman’s mouth.

The man walked out of the restaurant, the corner of his mouth curling up.

Although he didn’t know where this Ming Jing came from, he could be sure that Ming Xin was the real daughter of the Zhus.

If that were the case, the two strands of hair used for the DNA test back then had been swapped by the other party unknowingly.

At that time in the temple, Ming Xin was seriously ill and never left her room.

He sneaked into her room at night when everyone was asleep and pulled out an eyebrow because there was no hair. In theory, any hair with follicles could be used for DNA testing.

As for Ming Jing’s hair, the young girl was somewhat clever. Fearing to alarm her, he used sleeping smoke in her room at night and successfully obtained her hair.

Now thinking about it, he was the one who got hooked.

The man suddenly shivered, feeling that he couldn’t continue investigating this matter, as it might get deeper and deeper.

Being able to plan all this early on, Ming Jing’s scheming couldn’t be said to be shallow. He had been thoroughly used from beginning to end.

The man broke out in a cold sweat, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and hurriedly left Siji Town.

The old lady glared at the restaurant owner, “How much did you tell him about

Master Ming Jing’s affairs?”

The restaurant owner shook her head, “I didn’t say a word. Besides, isn’t Master Ming Jing’s background already an open secret? Anyone can find out with a little inquiry.”

“If it’s Master Ming Xin’s family looking for her, should we notify Master Ming

The old lady shook her head, “Don’t worry about it. Just remember, if someone asks you about Master Ming Jing again, just say you don’t know.”

“Okay, I got it.”

“By the way, Mom, just now there were two unfamiliar faces asking if there was an abandoned baby girl in our town twelve years ago. I don’t remember, but you have a better memory. Whose family adopted a baby girl twelve years ago?”

The old lady was startled and shook her head, “I don’t remember. There have been quite a few newcomers in town recently, so don’t say anything reckless.”

After scolding her, she went back to the backyard.

When no one was around, the old lady’s brow furrowed.

On that night twelve years ago, there was a rare heavy rain…

Zhu Xiangxiang saw the incoming call display and eagerly answered, “How did the investigation go? Is Zhu Mingjing the impostor?”

“Miss Zhu, if you really want to continue investigating, I’m afraid you’ll have to pay more.”

“Don’t be too greedy, I’ve already given you a lot of money.”

The other party spoke calmly, “There is great danger in continuing to investigate this matter. Money is important, but so is life. Miss Zhu should know that, right?”

“What’s so dangerous? If Zhu Mingjing is indeed an impostor, she would be kicked out of the Zhus and despised by everyone. How could that bring any danger to you?”

“Miss Zhu, have you ever thought that if Ming Jing really isn’t the daughter of the Zhu family, why would she know that Ming Xin is their real daughter when the Zhus don’t? And why would she swap the hairs that were to be used for DNA testing right under my nose? Since she returned to the Zhu family, she hasn’t suffered a single setback, her reputation has soared, and she’s respected by the upper class. Zhu Group has been in trouble recently, and she has taken advantage of it to gain a good name among the people. Whoever clashes with her is only seeking their own destruction.”

Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart sank as she listened.

She had never seriously thought about it, but now as she listened to the other party’s analysis, she realized that Zhu Mingjing was even more cunning than she had imagined.

Zhu Xiangxiang hooked her lip, “Haven’t you heard of a saying? The higher you climb, the harder you fall.”

“Miss Zhu, I’ve said all I have to say. I’ll keep the deposit as a fee for this trip, and I don’t want the rest of the money. I won’t get involved in anything else.

Oh, by the way, one more thing, as a reminder to you for the sake of my old employer, some people were in Siji Town asking about the affairs of the young masters at Jiyue Temple recently. They may be your parents. You’d better be prepared.”

Without waiting for the other party to speak, he hung up the phone.

Zhu Xiangxiang was stunned, her biological parents?

Why would they come looking for her since they abandoned her in the first place?

Zhu Xiangxiang still couldn’t accept the fact that she had gone from a wealthy young lady to an abandoned orphan. Why was fate so cruel to her?

Zhu Xiangxiang was restless and couldn’t even care if Zhu Mingjing was the real daughter or not. What would she do if her real parents actually came looking for her?

Just then, a sudden ring of her cell phone startled her.

After answering, a familiar voice came from the phone, and Zhu Xiangxiang was so scared that she almost threw it away.

“Are you surprised to hear my voice, Miss Zhu?”

“Zhou Ling? Weren’t you arrested?”

“Thanks to your good sister, but to think that this would be enough to trap me is just too naive.”

Zhu Xiangxiang’s hand holding the phone was shaking, “What… what do you want from me?”

“Of course, I need your help.”

Zhu Xiangxiang subconsciously wanted to refuse, but the other party didn’t even give her the chance, “It seems I can only call Mrs. Zhu, no, I should call her Ms. Lin now, and have a good chat with her about how her good daughter tried to poison her…”

“Stop talking!” Zhu Xiangxiang shouted out of control.

“You forced me.”

“Really? I didn’t know that. Don’t slander me.” The woman’s gentle voice fell on Zhu Xiangxiang’s ears, making her grind her teeth.

Taking a deep breath, ‘What do you want me to do?”

She should have known earlier that dealing with a tiger would eventually lead to being devoured by the tiger.

The woman laughed softly, “This is the Zhu Xiangxiang I know…”

“Miss, Zhou Ling was released from the prosecutor’s office this afternoon.” Ming Jing heard the news without any surprise.

“Zhu Wentao is just a stepping stone for her. Everything was planned well, except for the one surprise—meeting me.”

Du Ze glanced at the rearview mirror, where the young girl was holding a tablet and reading the document intently.

Her phone rang at this moment, and Ming Jing picked it up with a smile that was even more gentle.

“Have you seen the information I sent you? Zhou Ling turns out to be a member of CS. Her cover was quite deep. It took a lot of effort to find her true identity.”

Ming Jing’s eyes curved with a smile, “Thank you for your hard work. When you come back, I’ll treat you to pig’s trotters.”

“Hey, hey, hey, how did you know I like pig’s trotters? I haven’t told you before, right? Did your mom really tell you everything?”

Du Ze looked somewhat captivated, the girl’s eyes were full of tenderness, more charming than the misty rain in Jiangnan’s April.

“I guessed..”
