Chapter 336

The man whispered, “Not long after Sheng Luo came here, an accident occurred. The family who bought her also passed away.”

Nie Jiqing’s body trembled. Her lips were pale as paper, but her back was straightened a bit. Little by little, her side profile became firm and distinct, “I don’t believe it.”

She refused to believe that Sheng Luo died just like that.

Nie Jiqing held Sheng Luo’s picture as if it could give her more strength while she was going to meet the other villagers in person.

Nie Jiqing handed the photo to a villager and asked in a trembling voice, “Is this the girl who died in the landslide that year…is it?”

The villager identified the photo for a moment, “Two families died at that time and I think this little girl is indeed dead.”

Nie Jiqing felt a surge of pain in her heart, but she was still in denial. Every word she uttered exhausted her entire frame, “Are you sure you got the right person?”

The villager still nodded, “This little girl and her family could not avoid the landslide in time. Although she died, her body couldn’t be found…”

It was the beginning of spring, but Nie Jiqing felt like she was freezing from all over her body.

Nie Jiqing felt that her heart had been torn through, forming a deep wound. She covered her face and cried silently.

She trembled as tears slid down her face. Her drops of tears were like frozen snowflakes as they fell, whereas her whole body seemed to have lost its sense of consciousness.

Nie Jiqing’s voice was very soft as she questioned herself, “What have I been doing all these years…?”

For so many years, she had been doting on her enemy’s children when her own daughter had suffered so much out of the safety of her home. She didn’t even manage to catch a final glimpse of her daughter.

Nie Jiqing laughed miserably. This was a punishment from God— a mistake that she will spend her entire life atoning for.

After Nie Jiqing returned home, she fell ill. After Sheng Yu learned of this incident, he also became very sad and the two did not sleep all night.

Nie Jiqing was sitting in the room. Her face was very pale, but when she thought of Sheng Man’s family, her face sank.

She already knew that Sheng Luo was abducted and sold by them, so she must punish the culprits. However, now that the evidence has yet to be collected, she must temporarily suppress her anger.

Nie Jiqing’s eyes were cold, and at present, she still had one very important thing to do.

When Nie Jiqing’s body improved slightly, she went out. Nie Jiqing sat in the car and said indifferently, “Go to Sheng Man’s house.”

Nie Jiqing’s car stopped at the door of Sheng Man’s mansion. Nie Jiqing got out of the car and when she walked to the door, she found that the door was open and several people were already moving numerous things inside.

Nie Jiqing frowned.

The butler saw Nie Jiqing and greeted her with a smile, “Madam, you are here.”

Nie Jiqing asked quietly, “What are these?”

Butler, “The Lady bought a lot of new clothes and luxury goods. She is not at home now, so we are helping her move her things in.”

Nie Jiqing’s gaze fell on these things and the emotions that were barely suppressed previously started to surge again; she was shaking with anger.

Sheng Man still has the audacity to spend my money to live in my house! How dare she do this so comfortably?

Nie Jiqing tried her best to suppress her anger and she said coldly, “There is no need for you all to move these things in.”

The butler was stunned, “What?” She suspected that her hearing was malfunctioning.

Nie Jiqing turned to look at the butler and said quietly, “From today onwards, Sheng Man will not live here, so there is no need to put these things in it.”
