Unbridled, Depraved

Xie Jincheng's long silence made Shen Qianhe feel dissatisfied.

She curled her lips and frowned slightly, wanting to ask more questions but feeling hesitant.

Just as she was about to speak, Xie Jincheng finally broke the silence.

"Your mother Xu Shuqin has been found. She arrived in the capital the night before yesterday."

She suddenly looked up at Xie Jincheng, her heart almost stopping: "Are you telling the truth? Then why didn't you tell me the day before yesterday?"

Xie Jincheng looked at her excited expression, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Because there is one thing I want to confirm first."

"What's the matter?" Shen Qianhe asked anxiously.

Xie Jincheng: "I want to wait until the paternity test report comes out before notifying you."

Shen Qianhe was stunned for a moment when she heard this, but then she shook her head firmly: "No need to wait, we will go now!"

She had really waited too long for this moment. Even though she hadn't seen her mother for ten years, Shen Qianhe firmly believed that even without a paternity test report, she would be able to recognize her mother at a glance based on the blood connection.

She stood up and urged Xie Jincheng: "Let's go now without delay!"

"Okay. But there's one thing I think I need to remind you of. Your mother's condition may not be good, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Shen Qianhe's expression froze instantly. She stared at Xie Jincheng blankly, as if she didn't understand what he said.

Her body was trembling slightly because she was too excited, her lips were moving but she couldn't say anything for a long time.

Finally, she managed to squeeze out a sentence: "She..."

In the end, I didn't ask the following questions.

"Thank you, Xie Jincheng."

......

Two hours later, in a sanatorium outside Beijing.

Led by the dean, Xie Jincheng and Shen Qianhe walked through the green lawns and headed towards the most luxurious VIP area.

They walked to the innermost suite and the dean told them that the person was inside.

Shen Qianhe stood at the door, breathing rapidly.

Xie Jincheng noticed her nervousness and gently held her fingers, "Don't be nervous."

Shen Qianhe nodded, took a deep breath, and put his other hand on the door handle.

The door opened.

A thin and gaunt woman sat in a wheelchair on the balcony, her back facing them, quietly basking in the sun.

Shen Qianhe took two steps forward until he was standing behind the woman, then he mustered up the courage to call out softly, "Mom... I'm Qianhe."

The woman ignored her and maintained her original posture, staring at the scenery outside with numbness and indifference in her eyes.

Shen Qianhe's heart began to sink, and she approached cautiously, afraid to disturb her mother.

This is the mother she has been waiting for two lifetimes!

This time, she was really going to see it.

When he walked to the wheelchair, Shen Qianhe realized that the woman had no legs!

Everything below her waist was amputated.

Shen Qianhe felt a black screen before his eyes and almost fell backwards.

A pair of big hands supported her waist from behind, and she finally steadied herself.

Shen Qianhe clenched his fists, slowly squatted next to the wheelchair, looked at the woman in front of him who had almost lost all her hair and was skinny, and tears burst out.

"Mom...I'm Chizuru, look at me!"

The woman twisted her stiff head slightly and looked into Shen Qianhe's eyes.

For a moment, Shen Qianhe was a little dazed.

She was sure of it!

The woman in front of him was definitely not his mother, Xu Shuqin.

......

When I walked out of the sanatorium, it was almost evening and the afterglow of the setting sun filled the earth.

At this moment, Shen Qianhe's mood was as if being pressed down by a huge rock, heavy and complicated.

She sat in the back seat, looking out the window with empty eyes, her mind full of thoughts.

Xie Jincheng handed her a cup of hot milk and said, "Drink some milk and have a good sleep on the way back."

Shen Qianhe took the hot milk, took a sip, and felt the warm liquid flowing in her mouth. She whispered "thank you".

"Can you tell me where you found her?"

Xie Jincheng explained slowly: "Lin Rou has a niece named Yuan Xiao, do you remember her?"

Shen Qianhe nodded blankly, "I remember, last time at Ivy, she was the one who made things difficult for me and Wanwan, and then she was fired."

After that, she continued as if remembering something: "In fact, I know very little about Lin Rou. As for her relatives from her mother's side, I only know that she has an older sister and her parents are dead."

"Her sister and brother-in-law live in a small county in the south and run a laundry. The couple has only one daughter, Yuan Xiao. Including the time at the mall, I have only met her three times."

"What's wrong? Is she related to this matter?"

Xie Jincheng: "Last time you told me that you suspected your mother's disappearance was related to Lin Rou, so I asked someone to investigate Lin Rou's social relationships. At first, I really didn't find any clues, until one day, my people said they saw Lin Rou and Yuan Xiao arguing outside."

Shen Qianhe frowned, "They are arguing? Why?"

Xie Jincheng explained, "Yuan Xiao lost her job and applied for several companies, but she was rejected repeatedly. She became increasingly resentful, so she wanted Lin Rou to help her find a solution. Lin Rou had a conflict with Shen Wenyuan in the past two days and was in a bad mood. The two of them started arguing after a few words."

"My people heard that Yuan Xiao threatened Lin Rou that if she couldn't help her solve the problem, she would reveal what Lin Rou had done in the past."

Lin Rou became furious because of Yuan Xiao's threat, and the two almost got into a fight.

It was precisely because of this sentence that Xie Jincheng had a breakthrough in the investigation.

Xie Jincheng asked someone to use some tricks to coerce and bribe Yuan Xiao, but she was stubborn and refused to say anything.

It was not until her parents saw her trapped in a dark and damp basement, looking haggard and in a miserable state, that they were frightened and told her everything that had happened.

It turned out that Xu Shuqin’s disappearance ten years ago was indeed planned by Lin Rou.

It was she who, in order to get to the top, actually ordered her brother-in-law to lead people to kidnap Xu Shuqin.

Their plan was to sell Xu Shuqin deep into the mountains and let her live like a walking corpse, unable to live or die.
