Chapter 164 - 164 The Secret Back Then

164 The Secret Back Then

Back then, Wang Zirou and Wen Gongliang were pushed into the delivery room together.

Five hours later, a nurse walked out with an infant.

Then, Wen Gongliang took the infant from her and handed the infant to his subordinates who swiftly carried her away.

Before long, another subordinate walked over with a dead infant.

Half an hour later, Wang Zirou and Mrs. Wen could be seen being pushed out of the delivery room.

Shi Ran’s eyes narrowed.

Clearly, Wang Zirou’s child had been replaced by a dead baby.

As for the reason…

If she was not wrong, it should be related to the fortune teller of the Chu Family.

The girl had to be born on July 7th and born into the Wen family.

The two of them giving birth to daughters at the same time would undoubtedly mean an additional competitor for Wen Gongliang.

He was too ambitious.

Wen Gongliang naturally would not let Wang Zirou’s child be born successfully.

At this point, Shi Ran just did not know where the child was carried to in the end.

She was about to copy the surveillance footage.

However, the sudden appearance of a person made her pause.

Wen Gongliang’s other subordinate walked over with a crying baby.

Wen Gongliang hugged her and handed her to the nurse.

Shi Ran watched this scene with scrutiny.

Her mind raced.

The towel wrapped around this child was completely different from Wang Zirou’s.

In other words, it was a child brought over from somewhere else.

Why did Wen Gongliang bring a child over from elsewhere?

At the thought of this, she suddenly started typing rapidly on the keyboard.

She hacked into the hospital’s system and found Mrs. Wen’s medical record.

However, there were no records related to her pregnancy.

Shi Ran raised her eyebrows.

If she could confirm that Mrs. Wen’s pregnancy test was done in this hospital.

That meant…

Mrs. Wen was not pregnant at all. This was all a plot by Wen Gongliang to marry his child into the Chu Family.

Shi Ran picked up her phone.

She sent a message to Mother Chu.

Shi Ran: “Auntie, I want to ask, where did Auntie Zirou’s sister-in-law undergo her pregnancy test?”

Mother Chu’s reply was very fast.

[Mother Chu]: Jingdu First Hospital. It’s the most authoritative hospital in Jingdu. Basically, our physical examinations and treatments are all done there, and the Wen Family is no exception. What’s wrong?

Shi Ran smiled.

It seemed that the answer was already obvious.

Shi Ran quickly copied the surveillance footage of Wang Zirou’s delivery and sent it to Wen Qi’s email.

After doing all this, she looked at the surveillance footage that she had intercepted.

In other words, Wen Yufei was not Wen Gongliang’s biological daughter.

If that was the case, even if the fortune-teller’s prediction was correct,

It was useless for Chu Jinchen to marry Wen Yufei.

Just as Shi Ran was thinking this, she received a call from Wen Yufei.

“I want to talk to you.”

…

In the garden near Shi Ran’s apartment.

Wen Yufei was sitting on a stone bench. When she saw Shi Ran, she patted the seat beside her.

After Shi Ran sat down, she went straight to the point.

“I hope you can leave Jinchen.”

“You’ve said this many times,” Shi Ran said lightly.

“But you never gave me a definite reply,” Wen Yufei said with her head lowered.

“I won’t leave him. Moreover, we’re already together.” Her answer was frank and direct.

Wen Yufei looked at Shi Ran in disbelief. “What did you say?!”

Shi Ran did not repeat it.

...

Wen Yufei looked dazed.

“Is there anything else?” Shi Ran asked.

“Leave him. Tell me what you want and I’ll satisfy you,” Wen Yufei said firmly.

“That’s impossible.”

“It’s impossible even if there’s a chance of you dying?” Wen Yufei’s expression was evil, as if she was poison.

The corners of Shi Ran’s lips curled up, looking rather satisfied. “You can try.”

“With your family background, what do you think you can bring him even if you marry Jinchen? You will only bring him endless trouble, right?

Imagine the future Madam of the Chu Family, is a woman without any family background. Don’t you feel ashamed of yourself? Aren’t you afraid that the Chu Family will be humiliated because of you?

Since you agreed to date Jinchen, it means that you like him. You know what the fortune-teller said. Could it be that you want Jinchen to die an unnatural death because of you?”

Seeing that the tough stance did not work, Wen Yufei used another method.

It was an attempt to use emotions to reason.

...

Shi Ran glanced at her from the corner of her eye. “So you think that if he marries you, he can avoid an unnatural death?”

“Isn’t that so? I’m the one the fortune-teller picked, but what about you? You’re nothing. Your family background can’t even compare to mine!”

Wen Yufei also planned to get straight to the point.

Faced with Shi Ran, she tore off her disguise.

It revealed her pride and sense of superiority.

Shi Ran merely crossed her legs, revealing her fair and slender legs.

The smile on her lips was relaxed.

She did not seem to be agitated by Wen Yufei’s words at all.

“Eldest Missy Wen?” Shi Ran muttered.

She recalled what she had seen on the surveillance camera previously.

Then she looked at Wen Yufei’s proud and conceited appearance,

Shi Ran suddenly felt a little amused.

She stood up and left, not wanting to waste her breath on Wen Yufei.

However, in the next second, two men in black suits appeared in front of her and blocked her way.

Shi Ran smiled faintly.

Without turning around, she said, “You don’t think these two alone can stop me, do you?”

“Of course not.” Wen Yufei crossed her arms, her eyes gradually becoming vicious. “Do you think Jinchen will never marry if you disappear from this world?”

“Oh?”

“Why don’t we try and see?” Wen Yufei’s smile gradually became sinister.

“Ta ta ta.”

Quick footsteps sounded.

Soon, Shi Ran was surrounded by a group of strong men.

There were even more of them than last time.

When this group of people stood together, they were like an immovable mountain.

On the other hand, Shi Ran was like a vagabond standing at the foot of the mountain, looking small and vulnerable.

Wen Yufei sat down slowly.

She straightened her skirt, looking like a victor with victory in her grasp.

“How is it? Are you going to consider my suggestion?”

“Even if I consider it, you won’t let me off, right?” She didn’t panic at all, and her expression was even calmer than Wen Yufei’s.

Wen Yufei thought that Shi Ran was just putting on a brave front.

She looked at Shi Ran and smiled cunningly. “If you agree and break up with Jinchen now, tell him that you’ve fallen in love with someone else and want to leave with him, perhaps I can let you die with less pain.

But if you’re unwilling, it doesn’t matter. If he sees you with so many men…” Wen Yufei paused and laughed delicately.

The hidden meaning was self-evident.

“Do you think he’ll continue to be with you? At that time, even if you disappear, it shouldn’t matter to him, right?”

Shi Ran’s eyes turned cold instantly.

Killing intent flashed in her eyes.

“I have to say that your method is very stupid.” She sneered. “Are you only focused on learning etiquette and not cultivating your brain?”

“What do you mean?!” Wen Yufei gritted her teeth.

Shi Ran casually tied up her long hair. “You’d better pray that you can kill me today. Otherwise, your ending will be very miserable.”
