Chapter 358

Nie Jiqing’s breathing was laboured and she was on the verge of suffocation, but with a light puff of air, the entire report was revealed in front of her eyes.

The truth she once thought was out of reach was now within her grasp.

Nie Jiqing stared at the report. In a split second, her gaze slowly moved down and landed on the last few lines.

After a long era of suffering, time finally stood still at this moment.

‘There is a 99.99% chance that the two people are parent-child.’

‘According to the analysis of the DNA results, there is a parent-child relationship between the two.’

Sheng Lian asked Liu Cang to investigate all of Sheng Luo’s information. Liu Cang investigated for a while and managed to source the photo.

Liu Cang didn’t know that the photo of Ye Zhi that he got was deliberately set up for him to find. From the moment the photo fell into his hands, he had already fallen into Ye Zhi and Gu Ren’s trap.

Liu Cang had no idea about this, so he went to Sheng Lian and handed him the information, “In that landslide that year, two families died in total.”

“As it happened, both families have a little girl at home. They are about the same age.”

Sheng Lian immediately noticed that something was wrong, “Both girls died?”

Liu Cang, “Now that it’s brought up, that was really such a coincidence. Both of the girls were even neighbours.”

Sheng Lian’s temple pulsed suddenly as he immediately opened one of the documents. Taking out the photos, he looked at them carefully.

He looked at them in detail and the more he scrutinised them, the tighter his brows became.

After a while, Sheng Lian said firmly, “She is not Sheng Luo.”

Sheng Lian picked up another document as his hands trembled a little. Sheng Lian took a deep breath and took out the photo as his eyes fell on it.

The photo was that of a little girl. He could see that she had beautiful facial features and the size of her clothes were too small. This photo was spread out in front of him along with the sealed memories of his dark and selfish humanity.

Sheng Lian remembered very clearly that he took Sheng Luo away from the Sheng family that day.

At that time, Sheng Luo was wearing the dress in the photo.

Sheng Luo still trusted him at the time, but he ruthlessly threw her to Liu Cang. He asked Liu Cang to sell her off immediately— the sooner the better.

Liu Cang vaguely remembered Sheng Luo’s appearance, so he said, “See? Sheng Luo is dead, so you should rest assured.”

Sheng Lian didn’t speak as his eyes dropped. As he remained staring at Sheng Luo’s photo, his heart was filled with a great sense of unease.

Sheng Lian’s thoughts surged rapidly as memory fragments suddenly flashed in his mind. The fragments were extremely short and intertwined, each bringing him uncontrollable fear.

On the first floor of the mall, near the coffee shop, there was a familiar-looking woman. It was the mysterious profile he glimpsed before the elevator door closed…

The jumbled-up fragments that floated up and down in his mind slowly started to fall before an incomparably clear picture froze in place.

That day, Sheng Lian saw Ye Zhi, the female star that Sheng Man hated the most. As he felt that Ye Zhi seemed a little familiar, he caught up to see what had happened.

At that time, despite knowing that she felt familiar to him, he didn’t bother investigating the reason.

In the present time, Sheng Lian looked down at the photo again. The moment his eyes saw the photo, his hands trembled.

The girl in the photo and Ye Zhi’s face in his mind gradually overlapped.

Although the two were of different ages, backgrounds and even names, their facial features were very similar.
