Originally, after she got the results of the paternity test, she was supposed to inform Su Wen immediately, but who would have expected an attack.
Wangyue was also feeling fortunate.
Thankfully, she managed to successfully deliver this biggest news back.
With a "boom," Su Wen’s mind was left blank.
Disordered words swirled around her ears, buzzing incessantly.
——"This must be the Eldest Miss, together with the Madam, like sisters."
——"When I saw you, I thought of A Yuan."
——"I do not have biological parents; I only have an adoptive father and brother."
Su Wen covered her mouth; her intuition was not wrong.
Ying Zijin, her Tantan.
Not only was she not dead, but she also came to the City of the World.
The butler was also stunned, his mouth agape: "Miss Ying, is the Eldest Miss?"
That was quite the coincidence.
"What about the Ying Family’s documents?" Su Wen’s body shuddered uncontrollably, her voice stern, "Bring them to me again!"
The butler handed them over immediately: "Lady Madam."
At the moment when the identities were revealed, the severity of these documents increased dramatically.
The sudden change of Ying Zijin in the winter of 2020 was also recorded.
Her grades skyrocketed, even taking first place in the ISC globally.
While stories of people concealing their abilities like wolves in sheep’s clothing certainly exist, there truly isn’t such a thing as a meteoric rise.
Now Su Wen knew that this was likely because the gene lock shattered, causing such changes.
But back then, Ying Zijin was not yet 17.
This means the gene lock shattered early to protect her life.
Her Tantan really died once.
Su Wen’s hand gripped the armrest, veins bulging: "The Ying Family, this Ying Luwei, and Zhong Manhua..."
Her daughter, whom she hadn’t even met once, was discarded like rubbish by this family.
Su Wen closed her eyes, repeatedly stroking the girl’s photo.
It was a photo of Ying Zijin in the hospital, pale from excessive blood loss.
Tears fell drop by drop as she whispered softly: "I’m sorry, Mommy’s sorry."
"Lady Madam, we also found out that only Ying Tianlv, the Eldest Young Master, was ever kind to the Eldest Miss in the Ying Family." The butler’s expression cooled down as he spoke again, "Furthermore, the Ying Family has already fallen apart. Ying Zhenting was poisoned by his mistress and passed away last year."
"Zhong Manhua couldn’t bear the blow and went mad, now in a mental hospital."
"Ying Luwei, the direct culprit, is also in IBI’s high-security prison."
In this light, there seems to be no point in targeting the Ying Family further; it seems impossible to make them suffer more."
"Zhong Manhua went mad?" Su Wen let out a rare cold laugh, "Can I make her stay mad for life? If Hua Country can’t cure her, can’t the City of the World’s medical techniques?"
To this day, she still doesn’t know how her Tantan ended up with the Ying Family.
Even if Zhong Manhua went mad or became a vegetable, she would make sure Zhong Manhua wakes up!
She would not spare anyone who harmed Ying Zijin.
Mad? That’s a cheap outcome for Zhong Manhua.
Su Wen then suddenly remembered: "Yaoyao is still outside! I need to go find her!"
"Aunt, Elder Sister’s combat power is very high." Shaoying suddenly spoke, calm and composed, "Instead of worrying too much, since the enemies have already appeared, you must certainly be among their targets."
"Yes, you’re right." Su Wen regained her composure, "I don’t have enough combat power; it would cause more trouble if I went out, becoming a liability."
That group was capable of ambushing Luyan; her going out would be futile.
Su Wen sat down, her fingers trembling: "I’ll give her a call."
The phone rang for a long time without being answered.
Su Wen didn’t give up and continued making calls.
**
At ten o’clock, the nightlife in the City of the World officially started.
Outside, the lights were dazzling, the music and dance lively.
However, on the plain near the city gate, there had been a battle.
"Such a waste." Fu Yunshen slightly leaned down, stepping on the last man in black, a faint smile on his lips, "Let your master come personally, understand?"
The man in black stared with wide eyes, exhaling his last breath.
But soon, his body began to dissolve.
Clearly, he’d been poisoned with something akin to corpse-dissolving liquid as seen in TV dramas.
Among the twenty-two Sages who could refine medicine, there were only the Magician and the Priestess.
Fu Yunshen’s eyes narrowed slightly.
But the Magician is not a combat-type Sage and does not have such high authority.
At most, they were just one of the members, merely a subordinate.
Even the Sage Empress and the Sage Pope did not have the authority to make the Magician a subordinate.
