Chapter 164 - 6 Shen Chi’s Plan
Lin Xiaoguai’s heart tightened, and she subconsciously perked up.
"I’ve mentioned before that from my birth, I stayed in the countryside with my mother and siblings. The general public knew very little about me, except for a select few who were very close to the Han Family. Others knew of my existence, but not my age or name—not even my mother because of her job had any close friends, and so very little was known about her."
Shen Chi raised an eyebrow, a crafty glimmer reflected in his eyes as he said softly, "Mom’s already gone. If I were to disappear too, Liu Yuzhi could easily blur the time of Mom’s death and her marriage to my father, do a bit of manipulation, and thus make Han Shouyi a legitimate child of marriage, the only cost being that she didn’t have a wedding ceremony."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoguai frowned, "Would General Han Kuang agree to such a thing?"
"Of course not." Shen Chi’s expression was indifferent. "But she could plot secretly. At that time, Han Shouxin was only thirteen, and Han Shouzhen was just eleven. The siblings didn’t understand what Liu Yuzhi’s presence meant, and Han Kuang wasn’t wary of Liu Yuzhi either. It wasn’t too hard for her to plot against a three-year-old child."
"At that time, General Han Kuang was stationed with the troops in Province Z. Liu Yuzhi found a way to follow him there, even convincing my father to take me along. Although Han Shouxin and Han Shouzhen also went because of their mother’s last words, how could two children outwit Liu Yuzhi? She still found an opportunity to abandon me in a creek in the countryside."
At this point, the coldness on Shen Chi’s face couldn’t be concealed, "According to Liu Yuzhi’s plan, in the harsh winter, I, a three-year-old child abandoned in a creek, naturally wouldn’t have survived, had it not been for the appearance of Dad and Mom. She almost got her wish."
"Didn’t General Han Kuang stop her from causing such chaos?" Lin Xiaoguai wasn’t surprised that a child could go missing unnoticed in that era, even if he was a national leader’s child. However, she didn’t believe that General Han Kuang could be so easily fooled.
