Chapter 376
The flashing lights below flickered frantically as the contrast in moods were clear; the reporters questioned desperately, whereas Nie Jiqing’s expression was light.
Nie Jiqing looked at the camera and finally spoke, “Today, on behalf of the Sheng family, I would like to make an announcement to everyone.”
“My biological daughter was abducted and sold by human traffickers. But, we have found her after she went missing for more than ten years,” Nie Jiqing’s eyes flickered as tears gleamed and her voice trembled, “She used to be called Sheng Luo.”
“Now…”
“Her name is Ye Zhi.”
What?
There was an uproar from below— was it the Ye Zhi that everyone knew?The most popular female star of the year, Ye Zhi?
Responding to the reporters’ questions, Nie Jiqing nodded lightly and affirmed, “Sheng Luo is the Ye Zhi that you all know well.”
Netizens knew about Ye Zhi’s family background. Her relatives have long since passed away and she was the only one left at home. She worked hard in the entertainment industry alone but was badly framed and treated. It wasn’t until last year that her name was cleared and her standings rose.
However, everyone did not think that Ye Zhi had a connection with the Sheng family. But upon closer inspection, Ye Zhi and Mrs. Sheng’s eyebrows were indeed somewhat similar.
The scene of the press conference was very quiet and the reporters didn’t speak. Nie Jiqing’s voice was gentle and slow as she reiterated the story.
“Ye Zhi was abducted and sold to a small village more than ten years ago. Unfortunately, when she was ten years old, a landslide occurred in that village. She was rescued by her adoptive parents, who gave her a new name, Ye Zhi.”
“When Ye Zhi left, she was too young, so she forgot many things,” Nie Jiqing said, “By chance, we met several times.”
“…”
“Not long ago, we did a DNA test and determined that Ye Zhi is indeed Sheng Luo.”
The more the netizens listened, the more sympathy they felt. Everything about Ye Zhi was taken away by others. While Ye Zhi became an orphan, Sheng Man became the daughter of her Sheng family with peace of mind.
“Ye Zhi’s life experience is so tragic, I want to cry; how did she live through all these years?”
“How did Sheng Man have the decency to stay in the Sheng family? She pulled tricks on Ye Zhi secretly and even took her place. Had she ever thought that the girl she was messing with was the rightful daughter of the Sheng family?”
“What’s more shameless is that Sheng Man still wanted to go back to Sheng’s Mansion. She has done so many things that she shouldn’t have! Can someone teach her the meaning of ‘ungrateful, cruel and unscrupulous’!”
After introducing Ye Zhi’s identity, it was time to reveal Sheng Lian’s affairs.
Thinking of this, Nie Jiqing’s expression was as cold as frost and snow, “The one who kidnapped Ye Zhi as a child was a distant relative of the Sheng family. After Ye Zhi left, he sent his daughter in to become the adopted daughter of the Sheng family and wanted to use her to completely replace Ye Zhi’s identity.”
“Just yesterday, the initiator wanted to repeat the same methods as he planned on kidnapping Ye Zhi, taking the opportunity to extort money.”
Nie Jiqing’s ever-lasting graceful facial expressions were uncontrolled for a brief moment. She calmed her breath and made the truth known to the public.
“That person is Sheng Man’s father, Sheng Lian.”
Nie Jiqing gestured to the staff next to him with his eyes, “Next, I want everyone to listen to a recording.”
The police’s audio interrogation of Sheng Lian was heard and netizens across the country who watched the live broadcast also heard it.
Police, “Why did you kidnap Ye Zhi?”
Sheng Lian, “The Sheng family has already destroyed my family and Ye Zhi is the daughter of that family. If Ye Zhi is in my hands, she will be my biggest bargaining chip.”
Police, “Did you plan the kidnapping case back then?”
Sheng Lian: “You have caught Liu Cang, so he must have confessed that it was me long ago.”
“…”
The release of this recording was approved by the police. That was because they wanted to address not only Sheng Luo’s matters, but also the disappearances.
