Chapter 43 - "This is some information that I was able to gather." (4)
Gu Shao started to talk in a low voice, "What Lin Xi uses, eats, and even wears were mostly leftovers from Lin Anxin, that included her cellphone."
After he had said that, Xu Jiaofeng was the first who felt embarrassed – her son didn't care much about the b*stard child and Song Kexin, the mother, didn't care much about her either. Xu Jiaofeng was the one who was irked by the Lin Xi's existence and not wanted her to spend a penny of the Lin's. As such, she was the only one who instructed the servants that there was no need to supply Lin Xi with good things.
"The two of them were similar in ages. It is perfectly normal for them to share what they use in their daily lives. What is the big deal? Your saying that it is always Lin Xi who uses Xinxin's leftovers is a bit inappropriate, I'm afraid, Mr. Gu." Xu Jiaofeng argued.
Gu Shao ignored Xu Jiaofeng and went on, "Two years ago, Lin Xi won an essay competition online but was told that she had withdrew from the competition. In truth, Lin Anxin was the one who got the award in lieu of Lin Xi and also attended the summer camp offered by the host. The reason being that an award from this competition will add scores to one's high school entrance.
"Six months ago, there were posts in the school forum that badmouthed Lin Xi, which had negatively impacted her. The school was about to take the matter seriously and look into the person who was behind the incident. As it turned out, this incident was suppressed later on and never brought up again. It was the Lin's idea to suppress the incident and the culprit behind the incident was Lin Anxin.
"Then, there was the incident not too long ago where you accused Lin Xi of pushing Lin Anxin into the lake."
Gu Shao's voice was very nonchalant but all those that had happened in the past were still very vivid in Lin Xi's mind.
With the exception of Gu Shao and his daughter, everybody else looked very unhappy.
"That's just conflicts between two siblings. There was no need to take it public," said Lin Yize.
Gu Shao had a mocking look on him.
"Five years ago, Madam Song and her mother went out with both children and ran into robbers on their trip. Madam Song and Madam Zhang got out of the car and took off with Lin Anxin, leaving Lin Xi behind purposefully as a decoy... ..."
Song Kexin's face froze. Recalling what happened that day, she couldn't help but rebutted, "We didn't do it on purpose. I wasn't able to run away effectively with both children. Besides, the cops got there shortly afterward."
"And then." After a slight pause, Gu Shao carried on, "9 years ago, Madam Lin went out with Lin Xi and lost her. That was intentional. Later on, Lin Xi was sent over to the television station and you only gave up on your plan because you didn't want the incident to be blown out of proportion."
"You are making this up!" Xu Jiaofeng jumped up. "She got loss because she was running around wildly. What did that have to do with me?!"
That was not pre-meditated. At the time, the child wanted to give her candies at the time and followed her around the house. She couldn't handle her any more so she said she was going to take her out...
"What Boss Gu had found out in his investigations seemed to deviated some from the facts," said Lin Yize calmly.
"Okay, then how do you explain this?" Gu Shao tossed another document on top of the coffee table.
It was a donation agreement and the record of a match.
The donor on the donation agreement was Lin Xi and the match was between Lin Xi and Song Kexin.
That jotted Lin Xi's memory.
Two years ago, the condition of Song Kexin's lung had gotten worse and Lin Xi didn't really know the details. It seemed it was very serious. Song Kexin was hospitalized for 4 whole months. She heard that she was finally cured by a team of specialists from overseas.
Lin Xi was taken to the hospital once. She thought it was just a normal checkup; she had no idea that it was for organ-matching.
Lin Xi had never seen that donation agreement ever.
Was Song Kexin not cured, was their plan to trade her life for hers?
Did the plan to somehow kill her first so they would be able to transfer her organ onto Song Kexin?
The idea of it gave Lin Xi a chill down her spine.
Lin Xi reflexively grabbed onto the corner of Gu Shao's cloth as if wanting to find a sense of security.
