Chapter 2278 - 2282: Secret
“You didn’t break the law?” Gu Junzhu sat in a very relaxed and comfortable posture, a slight smile playing at the corner of his lips, looking at her with great interest: “Ruan Feifei is your and Yang Shaotong’s illegitimate daughter, isn’t she?”
Yang Zhaoqin’s eyes suddenly widened, her originally pale complexion turning even whiter: “What nonsense are you talking? Yang Shaotong is my cousin brother, Feifei is Ruan Zhi’s daughter!”
Her hands clutched the table, her body tense, eyes full of dread.
Ruan Feifei was Yang Shaotong’s daughter, and apart from her and Yang Shaotong, nobody knew.
How did the person sitting opposite her know?
She and Yang Shaotong were cousins, and they had liked each other since they were very young.
However, in their backward place, marriages between the same surnames were not allowed.
She had no choice but to follow her parents’ arrangement and marry Ruan Zhi.
Although she married Ruan Zhi, she loved Yang Shaotong.
She secretly maintained contact with Yang Shaotong, and later became pregnant with Ruan Feifei.
Ruan Zhi was an honest, somewhat cowardly man, suspecting that Ruan Feifei wasn’t his child, but he dared not say so.
Once, someone came to their village to recruit miners, and Ruan Zhi signed up.
Later, when Ruan Zhi went down to the mine, he died inside the mine—a stroke of good fortune for her.
After Ruan Zhi died, she took the compensation money from the mine and Ruan Feifei and left the village with Yang Shaotong.
Because there were people from their hometown in the criminal gang Yang Shaotong was involved in, she had a sense of shame and didn’t dare openly say that Ruan Feifei was the result of adultery between her and Yang Shaotong.
Publicly, she and Yang Shaotong always claimed they were cousins, and nobody knew the true nature of their relationship.
Why did the person across from her speak as if it was common knowledge that Ruan Feifei was Yang Shaotong’s daughter?
Who was he?
Why did he know such a hidden secret?
“Blood relations cannot be hidden,” Gu Junzhu said coolly, “Even though Yang Shaotong is dead, his brother is still alive. A paternity test between Ruan Feifei and Yang Shaotong’s brother will naturally reveal who Ruan Feifei’s real father is.”
“Who exactly are you?” Yang Zhaoqin’s face was devoid of color, like a ghost: “What does it matter to you who my daughter’s real father is? Who I had my daughter with is my business, not yours. Let me out!”
Gu Junzhu propped his chin with one hand, leisurely watching her: “I’m just curious, do you know Yang Shaotong was killed because of Ruan Feifei?”
“What? What nonsense are you talking? My daughter is just a child; she doesn’t understand anything. Are you insane? Spouting nonsense!” Yang Zhaoqin reacted intensely, trying to stand up, but was pressed back by the policewoman behind her.
“It seems you don’t know,” Gu Junzhu laughed, “After all these years, haven’t you ever wondered, back then, how did a group suddenly come to your secluded mountain village and capture Yang Shaotong and his group?”
Yang Zhaoqin asked dumbfounded: “Why?”
She was indeed curious.
However, after Yang Shaotong was caught, afraid that he and his group might implicate her, she hid with Ruan Feifei.
Until Yang Shaotong died, she didn’t dare visit him in prison.
She knew nothing about it.
“Do you remember that before the incident with Yang Shaotong, you kidnapped an injured man?” Gu Junzhu pointed to Zhan Jinchuan: “That injured man is him; he’s an individual.”
Yang Zhaoqin looked at Zhan Jinchuan.
