Compared to her classmates from these big cities, her knowledge was very limited, truly unsophisticated, and she couldn't gain the recognition and respect of her surrounding classmates and teachers.
She hesitated no longer. Regardless of whether others thought she was a fraud, she had to find that wealthy businessman and try to pose as his daughter.
Besides this method, she couldn't think of any other way to change her destiny!
After that night, she made up her mind and took the belongings left by her mother, Zhu Qin, to find her relatives. It turned out to be smoother than she had imagined.
At first, Father Wu was skeptical. He asked her a few questions, and she answered them all correctly, so he felt she was indeed his daughter.
She also wished she could have such a father, so she cried with emotion on the spot.
However, the Wu family also proposed a paternity test, which she hadn't anticipated, and at that time, she didn't even know what a paternity test was.
Father Wu asked for a strand of her hair and handed the matter of the test to his assistant.
She knew she wouldn't pass this hurdle, so she used the excuse of having something to do at school and needed to return.
After leaving the Wu family, she had no intention of returning. She thought that if the Wu family discovered she was an imposter, they might even call the police to arrest her.
This made her live in constant fear at school, wishing she could escape back to the countryside.
But half a month later, Father Wu personally came to the school to find her and take her back to the Wu family.
When her classmates at school saw an old man in a luxury car come to pick her up, their gazes towards her became even more peculiar, assuming she had found a rich older man outside.
She nervously followed Father Wu into the luxury car, about to confess her mistake.
Father Wu held her hand and said, "Xiufang, you are Xiufang! I've finally found you, it's wonderful! It's my fault as a father, but your mother was too resolute back then, never letting you see me again until her death..."
He choked up, his old eyes welling with tears.
Wu Xiufang was somewhat stunned.
After returning to school, she checked in the computer room at school that could access the internet. Paternity testing was the most advanced testing technology at the time, with an accuracy rate of almost one hundred percent.
She thought she wouldn't be able to pass the paternity test, but the Father Wu in front of her didn't scold her as a liar or have her arrested. What was going on?
"Dad," she said nervously, not knowing what to do, "Don't be sad. I accidentally discovered my identity while clearing out Mother's belongings. Otherwise, I would have come to find you long ago. I, I don't blame you."
"Really?" Father Wu looked at her, excitedly saying, "You are truly my good daughter."
Wu Xiufang still said timidly, "Dad, didn't you not believe me and say you wanted to do a paternity test? What about the results..."
"The paternity test results were correct, you are my daughter," Father Wu said, embracing her. "It was my momentary foolishness back then that made you suffer."
Wu Xiufang felt as if she were dreaming; the test results were actually correct.
She even suspected she was the daughter of the Wu family. With tears in her eyes, she said, "I didn't suffer much. My adoptive parents treated me very well; they even sent me to university."
"Mmm-hmm," Father Wu said, holding her hand and patting her hand. "They are good people, and I will thank them properly."
Wu Xiufang naturally leaned towards him. Thinking that she now had a wealthy father, her excitement was no less than Father Wu's. "Dad, I will definitely be filial to you from now on."
"Good child, such a good child." Father Wu felt immensely relieved to have found such a good daughter.
Later, she learned that the matter wasn't that simple. The paternity test results had been tampered with by Father Wu's assistant, Shi Changying.
Her ability to deceive the Wu family was thanks to Father Wu's assistant.
Father Wu had always regarded him as his confidant but was unaware of his treacherous intentions. Not only was he involved with Father Wu's second wife, but he also intended to seize the Wu family's assets.
A mobile phone ringtone interrupted her thoughts. She looked at the phone screen; it displayed a private number again, with no specific digits.
She nervously answered, "Hello."
It turned out not to be the person she expected, but a telemarketing spam call.
...
After listening to the report, Qin Tianyi thought that these two moves were enough to make Wu Xiufang tremble with fear for a while.
Wu Xiufang's people would inevitably panic and investigate the matter. Next, he just had to wait.
When Wu Xiufang suspected him and sought him out for a meeting, he could then dictate the terms and negotiate with her.
At that point, making her release Daisy would be a simple matter. Given a hundred times the courage, she wouldn't dare risk everything she currently had.
Qin Tianyi took out the items left by Song Jiaping from his office drawer. He hadn't expected that Huangfu Sisong, in order to consolidate his position as heir, had colluded with Wu Xiufang to harm Song Jiaping's entire family, using their family's ancestral secret recipe to develop new drugs and expand the Huangfu Group's business into the pharmaceutical field.
Setting aside Wu Xiufang's impersonation of the Wu family's daughter, if they could find evidence that they illegally obtained Song Jiaping's grandfather's secret recipe and claimed it as their own, that would be enough to send Huangfu Sisong and his wife to prison.
It would also allow Song Jiaping to reapply for the patents of those drugs and reclaim the rightful profits for his family, which would be a comfort to Song Jiaping's deceased relatives.
Qin Tianyi wanted to see what actions Wu Xiufang would take to ascertain if Zhu Qin and her son were still alive, and what accomplices would emerge.
Now, he was in the shadows, and Wu Xiufang was in the open, making it easier for him to find concrete evidence.
...
On Su Su's side, in order to persuade Daisy's parents to go abroad first, she had to reveal the truth that Daisy was being held captive by Huangfu Shaohua's parents.
Daisy's father jumped up and said furiously, "Is there no law? How can they do this! I'm going to find them, I'm going to sue them!"
"Uncle, please calm down," Su Su advised. "Although we know Daisy is being held captive, we have no proof. Even if you go there and make a scene now, they will deny it, and what if that puts Daisy in a worse situation?"
Daisy's father froze, sat down blankly, and seemed to understand the logic.
Daisy's mother wiped her tears and said, "When this child called me last time, she was actually being held captive. She lied to me because she was afraid we would worry. She's suffered so much. If only we had firmly opposed her being with Huangfu Shaohua. We can't afford to offend people like the Huangfu family."
Daisy's father yelled at her, "I disagreed back then, but you said they were truly in love and shouldn't be stopped. Let them overcome their difficulties themselves, and what's the result? Shaohua is dead, and Daisy is being held captive by his family. It's truly a sin!"
"I didn't expect this either. I just hope Daisy and the child in her belly are safe," Daisy's mother said, tears streaming down her face.
Su Su comforted Daisy's mother, saying, "Uncle, I heard Daisy say that you were seconded to work abroad by your company for a long time before. Your family also lived abroad at that time. It shouldn't be difficult to adapt to life abroad. My husband's intention is for you to go there first, and we will find a way to rescue Daisy and send her abroad as well. Then your family will be reunited, living a low-key life abroad, and Huangfu Shaohua's parents won't be able to find you, so they can't take Daisy's child away."
