Chapter 256: Chapter 256 Encounter, Jade Medallion

A neighboring old lady said, "What a sin!"

Zhao Pulin returned home with a darkened face, now filled with an utterly resentful hatred towards Gao Suhua. He felt deeply shamed, fearing that for the rest of his life, both he and his daughters would be subjected to incessant gossip and pointing fingers.

Good news seldom spreads far; bad news has wings. The incident from the morning had already been blown out of proportion, but what he didn’t anticipate was that the events that had just unfolded were also rapidly disseminated.

When Zhang Jianjun arrived at the commune police station with Luo Haotian, Luo Qiao and the others had already completed their statements. Upon learning of Gao Suhua’s actions, Luo Qiao proposed to file a lawsuit.

It was at this moment that Luo Haotian came in seeking information about Gao Suhua. Luo Qiao looked up and saw Zhang Jianjun, who said, "Luo Qiao, weren’t you in Capital City?"

Luo Qiao, still somewhat puzzled, asked, "Uncle Zhang, how did you know I went to the city?"

Zhang Jianjun replied, "We just went to Qingshan Village and heard about it from the villagers."

Zhang Jianjun, somewhat agitated, said, "Haotian, this is Luo Qiao."

Upon hearing Luo Qiao’s name called out by Zhang Jianjun, Luo Haotian’s eyes reddened as he stared at Luo Qiao, his lips trembling, unable to speak, before he finally managed to say, "Luo Qiao, I am Luo Haotian, your biological father."

When Luo Qiao heard Zhang Jianjun call out Luo Haotian’s name, she turned to look at the man beside him. His eyes were identical to the original owner’s, as well as the nose. She had only caught a distant glimpse of him once in Capital City before.

Their eyes met, and for a moment, the room fell silent.

Luo Haotian, with tearful eyes, said, "I’m sorry, so sorry, I’ve only just found out."

Luo Qiao, with a distant tone, asked, "How do you know that I’m your daughter?"

Luo Haotian looked up, "Intuition. Can I speak with you alone for a moment?"

Luo Qiao stood up and walked out of the courtyard of the police station, heading to an open space in front, where a large ginkgo tree stood. Stopping under the tree, she said, "Whatever you have to say, say it now."

Luo Haotian didn’t know where to begin, "Do you have a crescent-shaped jade amulet on you?"

Luo Qiao was silent for a long while before taking out, in reality retrieving from her space, a small crescent-shaped jade amulet. Luo Haotian took it from her hands, his own trembling slightly.

Fiddling with it for a long while, he said, "This was a gift from your grandpa when you were born. Sadly, he has passed away now. It has always been his concern."

Luo Haotian then recounted to Luo Qiao the events that happened after her birth. Apparently, her grandfather had always been suspicious of the substitute’s identity but lacked the evidence to confirm it.

Apart from her grandfather, the only other people who knew about the jade amulet being with her were her eldest maternal uncle and now also her biological father.

After finishing his story, Luo Haotian looked at Luo Qiao and said, "Qiaoqiao, come back to Capital City with dad. I won’t let you suffer ever again."

Luo Qiao didn’t speak for a long time, while Luo Haotian watched her anxiously, calling softly, "Qiaoqiao."

Luo Qiao asked, "If I go back with you, what will happen to the daughter you’ve cherished for fifteen years?"

Luo Haotian replied, "I raised my enemy’s daughter for fifteen years. She enjoyed my daughter’s blessings for fifteen years, which I don’t ask her to repay. She should just return to her biological parents, and I have no obligation to keep raising my enemy’s child."

Luo Qiao found the answer satisfactory, "Let’s wait until you’ve settled your family affairs before we discuss this further. Now, let’s talk about Gao Suhua’s case."

Luo Haotian hadn’t expected his daughter to be so rational and calmed his excitement, "Alright, let’s deal with this matter at hand first."

After reaching a consensus, the father and daughter returned to the police station. At this point, others inside had also learned the ins and outs of the situation through Zhang Jianjun and further scorned Gao Suhua’s actions.

During the interrogation that afternoon, Gao Suhua finally confessed to her original motives and the facts of the crime, as well as those pertaining to her latest offenses.

This case was beyond the scope of what their station could handle. They immediately notified both the provincial and municipal authorities. Gao Suhua was taken away that very night.
