Chapter 408 (1/2)

She felt weird inside her heart. At this moment, a maid that pushed the wheelchair. Grandma stretched her hand out towards Zhou Heng. Her expression was absolutely delighted as she said, “Dou Dou’s father, there is news, there is news of our Dou Dou now!”

Zhou Zhilei’s heart thumped, and her entire heart sank in a moment.

For a whole 40 years, these two elderly people had searched half the earth and did not receive a single piece of news regarding Dou Dou. It was only now that they decided to search around T City, and they had news already?

A few days ago, she was still unbothered inside her heart. She allowed them to do whatever they wanted. Were the Heavens joking around with her now?

No!

She would never allow that to happen!

She was the Young Miss of the Zhou family. She would never accept anyone intruding and s.n.a.t.c.hing the wealth and prestige that belonged to her!

Zhou Heng’s depressed emotions on the way here disappeared in a moment. “What?” He was joyous and took two steps forward to hold his wife’s hand. He bent down and asked, “Xiao Hui, what did you say? We…have news of our Dou Dou?”

“Yes, yes.” Grandma took the doc.u.ments from the maid’s hand and handed them over to Zhou Heng. Because she was too emotional, her voice was shaking as she said, “You look at them yourself. This is what we just found out: 40 years ago, a cargo s.h.i.+p snuck into T City from America. The s.h.i.+p was full of children who were trafficked. After that, the police searched for this boat. The children inside were all sent to the orphanage, and based on truth worthy sources of news, at that time, there was a girl who was around 8 years old on the boat. There was a red amulet on her neck. That girl spoke fluent English at that time, and the police remembered her. Someone had an everlasting impression of her. The girl said that she was lost on the streets of America… Dou Dou’s father, you don’t have to be suspicious. This is definitely our Dou Dou. Mothers and daughters are all connected with their hearts; I know this girl is definitely my Dou Dou!”

Zhou Heng listened to her as he flipped through the doc.u.ments. There was a delighted expression on his elderly face, “Okay, okay. No matter whether it is our Dou Dou or not, since we have news, I will definitely investigate these leads thoroughly…”

As he spoke, Zhou Heng pointed at the words on the doc.u.ments. “Is it Suns.h.i.+ne Orphanage? Butler, you will go to investigate personally, and you must find that girl.”

“Yes, master.” The butler came forward and took the doc.u.ments in his hands before going out the door to complete his task.

Grandma was overjoyed. She had a bright smile on her bony face. She held Zhou Heng’s hand as she teared up, feeling overjoyed, “Dou Dou’s father, this is great news. We have covered half the planet in our 40 years’ search. why didn’t we think of searching in China? Our Dou Dou — do you think that she is living well now or not?”

Zhou Heng wiped the tears from her face and personally pushed her wheelchair. “Xiao Hui, you are not in good health. Let’s go back into the house first. We don’t have to worry about whether Dou Dou is living well now or not. After we find her, she will be fine — better than anyone on earth.”

“Okay…Dou Dou’s father. Talking about this now, I really have to thank that little young lady who helped me pick the amulet up off the ground. If she hadn’t brought this up, I wouldn’t have thought of starting to search from T City. Everything seemed to be the work of the G.o.ds. It is only a pity that I cannot reach her phone number. Otherwise, I would definitely share this good news with her.”

Zhou Zhilei looked at the two elderly people go upstairs and enter their own room. She was absolutely anxious. All she could hear repeating in her ears non stop was what Zhou Heng had said previously: After we find her.

After they found Dou Dou, everything in the Zhou family would belong to Dou Dou.

When that time came, she would not matter anymore.

She was a cheap prop.

Zhou Zhilei laughed. d.a.m.n, she was finished, she was about to be eliminated.

But she regained her senses quickly. No, she was not finished yet. Dou Dou has yet to come back, so she still had a chance.

Zhou Zhilei looked at a maid by her side, this maid was her spy. She lowered her voice as she asked, “What is going on exactly?”

The maid followed Zhou Zhilei back into the room and told her what went down in exact detail.

Zhou Zhilei pondered silently for a moment, then anxiously said, “Why are my parents not coming back yet? Call them and tell them that Dou Dou is about to be found. I am about to crumble. Ask them to come back soon.”

“Yes, madam.” The maid left.

Zhou Zhilei suddenly thought of something, she raised her voice and shouted, “Come back!”

The maid was shocked. She did not know why Zhou Zhilei would suddenly lose control of her emotions again.

“Young Miss…”

Zhou Zhilei was shaking from head to toe. She stared at her and looked as if she had seen a ghost. “Say it again — what orphanage?”

“Young Miss, Suns.h.i.+ne Orphanage.”

Suns.h.i.+ne Orphanage…

Suns.h.i.+ne…

Zhou Zhilei thought of someone in her mind. At that time, she was drinking tea with Song Yajing in the living room, and the butler gave them all the information regarding the Ning family.

Song Yajing looked on and placed the doc.u.ments on the coffee table. She pointed at the name of a foreign place as she laughed coldly. “Suns.h.i.+ne Orphanage? The mother of Ning Qing is actually an orphan. She went into the orphanage when she was 8 years old. Her background is too pathetic and cannot be showed off to others.”

“Young Miss, you…”

The maid was flabbergasted. It turned out that Zhou Zhilei’s legs softened, and she was already seated numbly on the floor.

…

Ning Qing brought Xiao Zhou along with a few staff members to walk into the lift. Xiao Zhou hung up and said, “Ning Qing, I just got a call. My younger brother is fine. Ning Qing, thinking about it, I am just so furious. Why did you have to let go of Zhou Zhilei. She kidnapped and threatened us. This is a criminal offence. This alone is enough to make Zhou Zhilei go to jail for a few years.”

With a smile, Ning Qing said, “Xiao Zhou, what did I tell you previously? We have to think thrice before we do something. If you accuse of her kidnapping and taking ransom, then do you have any evidence to prove it? The Zhou family has both power and status. If we are going to go to court with them, neither of us are not going to benefit.”

Ning Qing was speaking the truth, but the most important thing was that she also did not bear to do so. She had a special closeness with Old Master Zhou.

It was also weird when she thought about it. She had the same kind of feeling when she had met Zhou Dayuan.
