Chapter 366 Shen Lu Confesses to Being a Transmigrator

“Uncle…” Shen Lu saw that Shen Qingyan hadn’t spoken for a long time and was just staring at her with cold eyes. In the end, she couldn’t help but break the silence first.

As she addressed him as "Uncle," a flash of disgust crossed Shen Qingyan's brows.

Shen Qingyan tapped her hand lightly on the table, then pointed to the seat opposite Shen Lu.

Shen Lu hesitated for a moment, then sat down opposite Shen Qingyan.

Shen Qingyan did not give Shen Lu any chance to speak.

After she sat down, she pressed play on the tape recorder.

Shen Qingrong's voice echoed in the empty room.

—Shen Qingyan, I can tell you anything you want to know, but you have to agree to one condition: let me out.

Upon suddenly hearing Shen Qingrong's voice, Shen Lu was startled.

She subconsciously raised her head and looked at Shen Qingyan opposite her.

There's also a recording of Shen Qingyan's voice in the middle of this recording.

But what made her expression change drastically was Shen Qingrong's vicious words that followed.

—She was the one who was heartless first, Shen Qingyan. As long as you let me go, I can help you investigate my daughter… no, that bastard Shen Lu!

Shen Lu knew from the beginning that Shen Qingrong, a villain who was selfish and self-serving in the original work, would definitely sacrifice her daughter in order to protect himself.

But what she never expected was...

The other party will use the word: research.

Research!

What do they take her for?!

After listening to Shen Qingrong's two conversations in the recording, Shen Lu's expression changed repeatedly.

Several seconds later, Shen Lu managed to compose herself: "Uncle..."

Before Shen Qingyan could even utter the words "Uncle Tang," a fleeting look of disgust crossed his face, and he tapped the table with his hand.

Shen Lu was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized, but still felt confused.

Could it be that this man dislikes me because I call him "Uncle"?

Shen Lu didn't understand why Shen Qingyan was acting this way.

But since she had keenly sensed it, she naturally wouldn't allow herself to continue making that mistake.

But deep down, I felt embarrassed and insulted.

In the original novel, Shen Qingyan and Long Yijun were a perfect match. Although Shen Qingyan was emotionally detached and cold to outsiders, he was very warm to his family.

Especially for their daughter Qiao Qiao, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they cherished her like a precious gem.

Long Yijun left this world after giving birth to her child.

Because of this, Shen Qingyan treated Qiao Qiao like both a mother and a father, spoiling her rotten.

That's not all.

In the original novel, Qiao Qiao not only has a biological father who is a high-ranking official, but also an adoptive father who later becomes a very wealthy man.

The adoptive father also doted on the female lead from a young age.

He was willing to remain unmarried for life because of his adopted daughter, fearing that having a wife and children would pose a threat to her.

Shen Lu was reading this book.

Besides being envious of Qiao Qiao being pampered by those older brothers and sisters from the compound, they also envied Qiao Qiao for having two fathers like these.

When she first transmigrated to this world.

She was very angry, wondering why she hadn't just transmigrated into Qiao Qiao's body.

Later, thanks to Long Yijun's miraculous fruit, Bi Yatong's life was saved. She often visited Yan Liti at the Shen family manor, which was also at Yan Liti's instigation.

She originally intended to first win over Yan Liti, and then, through Yan Liti, win over Shen Qingyan.

She felt that since Shen Qingyan loved Qiao Qiao so much in the original story, it was only a matter of time before he would transfer the affection he showed Qiao Qiao in the original story to himself, since Qiao Qiao had no chance to return to the Shen family and he only had her as his obedient and sensible cousin.

Who would have thought?

For over four years, despite her frail health, she went to see Yan Liti, that old woman, every few days, yet Yan Liti could so coldly refuse to see her.

They're so ruthless, it's inhuman!

Therefore, Shen Lu actually harbored some affection for Shen Qingyan.

However, she did not expect that her beloved uncle would show disgust and hatred just because she called him "uncle".

Shen Lu felt even more humiliated than being slapped in public.

Shen Lu pursed her lips in humiliation, lowered her head to hide the emotions in her eyes from Shen Qingyan, and continued in a trembling voice, "I...I, I don't understand..."

Shen Lu wanted to say that she didn't understand what Shen Qingrong meant by those words.

But before he could finish speaking, Shen Qingyan across from him spoke up.

"You only have one chance," Shen Qingyan said.

"What?" Shen Lu subconsciously raised her head and looked at Shen Qingyan.

"One chance to live," Shen Qingyan repeated, his cold gaze fixed on her. "You, or your father, only have one chance."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lu gripped the hem of her dress tightly.

“Your mother, Bi Yatong, has confessed that under the guise of helping impoverished children, she actually set up a relief organization to find organs for you two sisters. Once the charges are handed down, she will be executed.”

Shen Qingyan spoke very softly when she said the last two words.

But it weighed heavily on Shen Lu's heart.

Shen Lu's face turned deathly pale instantly.

She loved reading novels even before she transmigrated into the book, and she had read quite a few novels from the 1970s and 80s.

She knew that in this era, the law was not yet perfect.

Crimes like adultery, hooliganism, and speculation, which would be insignificant in later generations, were serious offenses in this era, punishable by death.

She also knew about what Shen Qingyan had just mentioned.

At the time, she thought it was unimportant; her family was rich, and there was nothing they couldn't handle.

But now they have nothing left at home, their company has gone bankrupt, their maternal grandparents are abandoning them, and Grandpa Shen is in trouble. With such a crime on their hands, they are certain to die.

Shen Lu mentally calculated all of this.

But she still didn't want to compromise directly. She looked up at Shen Qingyan and said, "You're a soldier. Even if what you say is true, my parents will be executed, but I'm innocent, and I'm a minor. You're a soldier, I don't believe you would..."

"Cut the weeds and eliminate the roots." Shen Qingyan looked at her and coldly uttered only four words.

Shen Lu looked at Shen Qingyan in disbelief.

Obviously, I didn't expect him to say something like that.

It took Shen Lu a while to process the shock.

Finally, just like Shen Qingrong, she looked at Shen Qingyan with a firm and vicious gaze.

"I can do that too, but Tang... you have to promise me you'll let me go. These things were done by him and his wife, and have nothing to do with me!"

Shen Qingyan didn't speak, he just looked at her.

Shen Lu knew that they were waiting for her to speak first.

Shen Lu steeled herself, closed her eyes, and said, "Actually, I am a transmigrator!"
