That period was dark enough for Shen Jian. She was sent to an orphanage, and her younger sister disappeared, abducted by someone. All of this was caused by her biological father, Shen Guodong.
Shen Jian clenched her fists tightly. She didn't want to look anymore.
For her, these memories were like hell.
"Sister, are you waiting for me?"
Just as she was about to let go of these memories, Shen Jian heard a little girl's soft voice.
She turned around abruptly and saw the girl in Pei Xiuyuan's photo. The girl stood there, looking very well - behaved.
"Sister, I miss you so much."
But she didn't move. Although she said she missed her, her body remained still.
Shen Jian immediately realized that everything she saw was fake, just old memories. But in her memory, there was no Shen Weiting at this age.
"Weiting..."
Shen Jian walked over carefully and reached out her hand. Strangely enough, the other girl responded.
The moment Shen Weiting's little hand touched hers, the heavy stone in Shen Jian's heart finally dropped. The person she had been looking for for so long was right in front of her. She had no more regrets.
Shen Weiting said in a milky voice, "Sister will always stay here with me, right?"
"Yes..."
"..."
At this moment, Lu Jinsheng also arrived at a strange yet familiar place.
He saw the young Lynn Jin and the memories that he thought didn't belong to him but felt very familiar.
He stood with two peers, and there was a very young girl following him. At that time, they all called the girl "Juanjuan".
"Why do you always follow Jinsheng? We've said we don't want to play with you!"
The girl who spoke was the young Lin Zhirou. Sure enough, some people were cold - hearted from childhood, and they hadn't changed at all over the years.
Juanjuan was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word. But every time, Pei Xiuyuan would step forward to comfort her.
It seemed that even he didn't like Juanjuan very much. Lu Jinsheng still remembered that Shen Jian once told him that Juanjuan was her younger sister.
But he didn't know why, in his memory, he didn't understand why Juanjuan followed him and how they got connected.
The scene changed.
Lu Jinsheng saw Lu Ziqian abusing Lynn Jin again, almost driving her to a dead end.
"Stop!" he shouted.
He thought the other person wouldn't hear him, but surprisingly, Lu Ziqian really stopped.
Lu Ziqian threw away the ashtray in his hand, looked up at him, and asked, "Who are you?"
"It's none of your business!"
After saying that, he pushed the old man away. Lu Ziqian turned into a puff of smoke after being pushed and then disappeared.
He squatted in front of Lynn Jin and helped the woman up.
"Mother, where have you been all these years?" He naively thought that the person in front of him could answer the questions that had no answers in reality.
Lynn Jin looked stupid and timid, completely different from when she first married Lu Ziqian.
"Can you hear me?"
Lynn Jin nodded. She pushed Lu Jinsheng away and got up from the ground with difficulty. She ignored his words and continued to do her own thing.
Seeing this, Lu Jinsheng obediently followed behind, wanting to see where she would go next.
"Jinsheng, don't be so nervous. Mom won't leave..." Lynn Jin turned around, with a gentle smile on her face.
He was stunned. He really didn't understand. Lynn Jin had already left. Wasn't this just a memory?
"What are you talking about?" he asked warily, already aware that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Lynn Jin became more and more abnormal.
"I don't blame your father for what he did. He has left me now. Now I'm all alone."
Suddenly, Lynn Jin started to cry without any warning. No one knew why.
She sobbed all over. Lynn Jin slowly looked up, looked at Lu Jinsheng, opened her mouth, and asked, "Jinsheng, would you like to stay with me forever?"
Lu Jinsheng: "..."
He was obviously stunned when he heard this. He seemed to be thinking about the meaning of these words and what was wrong with Lynn Jin.
"Would you?"
"Stay with mother forever."
Lu Jinsheng really wanted her to remember the past and also wanted to live with his mother forever.
But the woman in front of him was not the real Lynn Jin. This was not the real world. If he agreed, would he never be able to get out?
Lu Jinsheng refused without hesitation, "I don't want to."
Yes, he didn't want to.
He had more important people to protect and many things to do.
Lu Jinsheng had to find Shen Jian. He didn't even know if she was in danger too and if she could react.
Just then.
The Lynn Jin in front of him started to shatter like a mirror, but she still maintained that posture.
"Jinsheng, do you not want your mother anymore?" She reached out her hand and looked at her body shattering bit by bit. "Are you leaving me too?"
"Jinsheng!!"
With a heart - rending scream, Lu Jinsheng suddenly opened his eyes.
He gasped for breath and found that he had just fainted on the spot. This was still the place where they had broken the semi - transparent mirror at first.
Lu Jinsheng turned his head and saw Shen Jian lying on the ground, trembling abnormally.
He immediately stepped forward to hug the woman, shook her body slightly, and shouted anxiously, "Yiyi, wake up! Don't get trapped in there, Yiyi!"
But the woman couldn't hear him at all. She closed her eyes tightly and continued to immerse herself in the illusory world.
...
At this moment.
In another corridor of the hall, Hongxiu carefully opened the doors of each room, looking for the mermaid Song Nuan.
She opened almost every room from the first to the last. She clearly saw the staff push Song Nuan this way at that time, but where had the person gone?
Hongxiu just wanted to speed up now so that she could finish her task quickly and then go to help others.
She didn't know how long Lu Weiran could hold on. After all, none of those three were good at fighting.
In this corridor, there wasn't a single guard or bodyguard.
"Damn it. If I had known this mission would be so safe, I should have swapped with that idiot Lu Weiran. I don't know how the situation is on his side?"
Just as she finished speaking.
The door on the left that hadn't been opened suddenly pushed open from the inside.
Two fully - armed people walked out, looking in a hurry.
The red - haired man cursed, "I'm really f***ing convinced. How could there be a robbery during an auction?"
