162, Misplaced Life

After Yan Chu and Cheng Sheng separated, they returned home. When they opened the door, Zhang Guoqing and Lin Fang were just as they always were at home, one sitting on one end of the sofa and the other sitting on the other end of the sofa.

They are obviously a couple, but they are as alienated as strangers. The TV in the living room is on, showing a famous Taiwanese TV series that is hundreds of episodes long.

That was Lin Fang's favorite TV series. Every time she watched the protagonist's joys and sorrows in the TV series, she would cry.

"I'm back, the water heater is on, don't take advantage of your youth and take a bath with cold water, you know?" Zhang Guoqing watched his son come back and finally took a breather from the dull atmosphere.

"Um."

Yan Chu responded, put the jelly he bought specially when he came back on the table, then went back to his room, picked up clean clothes and walked towards the bathroom.

He was sweating from playing just now, and now his whole body was sticky, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

"The food outside is not hygienic. I don't want to eat it."

Lin Fang looked away from the TV, looked at the jelly on the coffee table and muttered softly.

"If you don't eat it, I will. My son remembers that you bought you jelly jelly and you are still picky."

Zhang Guoqing's eyes were a little cold. He opened the lid of the jelly, inserted two spoons in, and started eating from left to right.

He can no longer remember what the girl he liked originally looked like. Now he still endures living with her. Perhaps he is unwilling to let his efforts for so many years turn into a joke. Perhaps it is also because he still has a little extravagant hope. , hoping that he can arouse this woman's few conscience.

But now he realizes that those extravagant hopes are gradually gone. After more than ten years, he should understand that this woman's heart has never been in him.

Lin Fang pursed her lips, feeling very hurt by Zhang Guoqing's indifference.

This man made good promises when he married her and would pamper her like jewels. In the end, these words were all lies. Men are indeed unreliable.

If not...if not...

Lin Fang's eyes were dim. If it hadn't been for that incident, she wouldn't have thought of marrying him. There were many men who were more capable than Zhang Guoqing who pursued her but she didn't agree. She just fell in love with the man in front of her. Was he honest and devoted to her?

Sure enough, men don't know how to cherish it once they get it, and they all have no conscience.

She felt a little sour in her heart. If she had not made that decision, would she have a better life now? She should not be such a woman who spends money on food, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. She even has to pay carefully when going out in the summer.

The two of them have their own thoughts. This couple may have been inseparable from the beginning.

"That jelly jelly tastes quite good. Mom and Dad, what do you think of the taste?"

After Yan Chu took a shower, he washed the clothes he had changed into and took them to the balcony to dry.

Looking at the two empty boxes of jelly jelly, Yan Chu asked casually.

“Not bad, very refreshing and refreshing, perfect for eating in summer.”

Zhang Guoqing did not say that the jelly jelly he bought was disliked by his own mother. This son has always been filial to his mother, Lin Fang. Although during this period, I don’t know if it is because of the increased gender awareness in adolescence, but he is closer to his father. , but in Zhang Guoqing's heart, his son must still miss Lin Fang, his mother.

"How was your basketball game this afternoon?"

Zhang Guoqing patted the seat next to him and asked his son to sit over. Without stopping, he brought his son a sliced ​​apple he had just taken out of the refrigerator.

"After a draw, No. 2 Middle School invited a foreign aid, which is quite impressive."

Yan Chu took a bite of the watermelon and his speech was a little slurred.

"That foreign aid is from Yanjing. His surname is Yan. Dad, what a coincidence, he and I actually have the same birthday."

"Bangdang——"

Lin Fang was drinking warm water. When she heard Yan Chu's words, she smashed the cup in her hand to the ground. Fortunately, the cup was made of acrylic and did not break. The water and the chrysanthemum and wolfberry soaked in it were scattered all over the floor.

"I'll get the mop."

Lin Fang stood up in a panic, looking at the mess on the ground at a loss. She tugged at the hem of her clothes and tugged her hair with both hands. Then she realized what she should do and hurriedly walked towards the balcony.

The Zhang family's broom, dustpan and mop were all placed on the balcony. Lin Fang said she was going to get the mop, but what she ended up getting was a broom. The ground was already wet, but when she swept it away with the broom, the water surface expanded even more. The broom was also wet.

"What are you doing?"

Zhang Guoqing frowned and watched her getting busier and more chaotic. He couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed the broom in her hand, then took a few paper towels to pick up the chrysanthemums and wolfberries on the ground.

"I am a little uncomfortable."

Lin Fang touched his forehead and said softly.

Zhang Guoqing saw that her face was really pale and frightening, so he couldn't help but ask: "Why are you feeling so uncomfortable? Do I need to take you to the hospital?"

You were fine when you were just watching TV, but why do you suddenly feel uncomfortable?

"It's okay, maybe I didn't sleep well." Lin Fang didn't want to say more, waved her hands and went back to the room as if sleepwalking, and then closed the door.

Yan Chu helped his father clean up the mess left by Lin Fang, and then he rushed him back to his room to review his homework.

The moment he closed the door, Yan Chu's expression also changed. His previous guess seemed to be confirmed.

The plot of this mission world is a bit bloody. For a period of time, such plots often appeared not only in novels but also in TV dramas.

One is a high-ranking rich daughter, and the other is a poor Cinderella. Because of an accident, the mystery of their life experience was revealed. It turned out that the life trajectories of the two girls were swapped at the moment of birth. One replaced the real daughter and enjoyed more than ten or twenty years of wealth, and the other replaced the real Cinderella and lived a poor life for more than ten or twenty years.

This dramatic plot is very popular with the audience. Either the fake daughter is willful and willful, and the fake Cinderella is self-reliant, or the fake daughter is innocent and simple, and the fake Cinderella is deep and gloomy. Anyway, the two parties who exchanged lives must be opposite, thus unfolding a bunch of bloody stories.

Such plots are used in different ways in different film and television dramas. The taboo love of fake brothers and sisters, the bloody love of real brothers and sisters, you can't think of it, and there is nothing that the screenwriter can't do.

The world where Yan Chu is now is centered around a pair of boys who were born with swapped identities.

One is his original body Zhang Chu, and the other is Yan Jinyu whom he met today.

The truth about the two being taken away by mistake was revealed three years later.

The old man of the Yan family was a soldier. There were two sons in the family. The eldest son Yan Congnan inherited his father's business and has been developing in the army. The second son Yan Jibei resigned from his public office in the late 1980s and went into business. Now he is one of the richest businessmen in China.

Yan Jibei's wife Yu Tong also came from a red family. The status of the Yu family and the Yan family is equivalent. The marriage of the two can be regarded as a strong combination of the two families.

However, Yan Jibei and Yu Tong still have feelings. Unlike many married couples in the circle who are in harmony but not in harmony, their love has always been envied.

Yu Tong also has her own career and can be regarded as a strong woman in the business world. The couple pursues elite education. Although they love their only son Yan Jinyu, they have never been soft-hearted in education. Yan Jinyu also lived up to his parents' expectations and skipped grades all the way. Although he is the same age as his cousin Yu Haikuo, he is already a junior student at Yenching University.

Yan Jinyu is a calm person. Although he is not very old, he has a methodical way of doing things. He entered Yanshi Group for internship in his freshman year and completed several major projects. People in the group are very optimistic about this future leader of Yanshi Group. They think that as long as he has more than ten years of experience, Yanshi can smoothly complete the handover between Yan Jibei and Yan Jinyu.

In that circle, Yan Jinyu has always been the child of other people's families in the mouths of other parents.

The outbreak of the incident originated from a physical examination.

In a family like the Yan family, family members have to undergo detailed physical examinations twice a year. In the past, there was no disease, and Yu Tong would not care about these physical examination reports.

But this year, one of the elders of the Yu family got gastric cancer, and it was already in the late stage when it was checked out. Therefore, Yu Tong paid special attention to the physical examination reports of herself and her son. Before the report was sent home, she went to the hospital first.

In that physical examination report, the blood type of her son Yan Jinyu was AB type, while Yan Jibei and Yu Tong were both A type, and it was absolutely impossible to give birth to a son with AB type blood.

Her first reaction was that the hospital might have made a mistake, but after checking the records of previous physical examinations, her son Yan Jinyu's blood type had always been AB.

Yu Tong was immediately stunned. She took a strand of her son's hair and her own hair for a paternity test. The test results showed that Yan Jinyu was not her son.

How could the child she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy not be her son? Yu Tong could only place her suspicion on the hospital where she gave birth and wanted to find out the truth.

When Yan Jinyu was born, the conditions were not so good. During that time, the old man of the Yan family was angry with his son because he did not obey his plan to go into politics, but went into business instead.

Without the help of Mr. Yan, Yan Jibei and his wife did have a hard time in the early stages of the company. It was not until Yan Jinyu was born that Mr. Yan forgave his son for the sake of his grandson, and the situation at home really began to improve.

At that time, the conditions in the hospital were not as good as they are now, especially during that period of time when the upper class was in a tight situation. When Yu Tong gave birth, there was no difference between her and ordinary pregnant women. Except that the room she lived in was better than that of ordinary pregnant women, which was a single room, all other production environments were the same.

And the newborn baby would be placed in the nursery for a period of time, and it was possible that the nurses accidentally took the wrong baby.

Unfortunately, it was difficult to find the information from more than 20 years ago, and cameras were not yet popular at that time. Yu Tong found the pregnant women who gave birth on the same day as her one by one, and then found the Zhang family who moved from Yanjing to Pinghai City because of her husband's work at that time. After completing the paternity test, it was also confirmed that Zhang Chu was the son of Yu Tong and Yan Jibei, and Yan Jin was the son of Zhang Guoqing and Lin Fang.

As soon as this news came out, it caused quite a stir in the upper class of Yanjing City.

At their level, the way to raise a child is definitely not that simple, especially for a child raised as an heir.

Yu Haikuo has a brother who is seven years older than him. He was able to be born smoothly at the beginning because his mother's physical condition did not allow abortion, and he was indeed accidentally conceived when his mother had an IUD.

Because he had an older brother, Yu Haikuo's life became much easier and happier. As long as he didn't develop into a playboy, the elders were always more tolerant of him.

Yan Jinyu is different. He was born as the heir of Yan Group founded by Yan Jibei and the successor of Yu Tong Company. The two families spent a lot of effort on him.

But this son who had been carefully cultivated for more than 20 years was revealed to be not their biological son. The real heir of the two groups was just a student of an ordinary university. He had never received elite education since childhood and was very unfamiliar with some of the life and unspoken rules of the upper class. This made the trouble a bit big.

When the news was exposed, the stocks of the two companies once fell to the limit, and many shareholders were not optimistic about the future development of the company.

The biggest impact of this news was on the two families themselves.

In fact, Zhang Guoqing knew that this was not his son when Zhang Chu was twelve years old. At that time, the goddess he secretly loved asked him if he was willing to marry her, and then gave birth to his son Zhang Chu prematurely eight months after marriage. At that time, Zhang Guoqing was a little suspicious, but he just kept avoiding and didn't dare to believe it.

After paternity testing became popular, Zhang Guoqing took his son's hair for testing. The son he loved for twelve years was not his biological son. From that day on, he had a gap with his son, and his relationship with Lin Fang also plummeted.

He never thought of doing a paternity test for his son and Lin Fang, because in his opinion, how could the child be taken away by the wrong person? As a result, this thing that might not happen once in a million people actually happened to him.

Looking at the paternity test of him and Yan Jinyu given to him by the Yan family, Zhang Guoqing had mixed feelings.

On the one hand, he regretted that he had misunderstood his wife, and on the other hand, he was excited that he actually had a biological child. Before this happened, he planned to live in such a muddle and regarded Zhang Chu as his own son.

This matter was a mixed blessing for Zhang Guoqing, but for the other three elders, it was completely a worry rather than a joy.

Yan Jibei and Yu Tong were busy with their careers, and the little love they had was given to Yan Jinyu, who was also their favorite heir. Although Zhang Chu was their own flesh and blood, they only owed this strange son, but they did not feel the love from the bottom of their hearts.

Lin Fang was the same. She cried and made a fuss, unwilling to let Zhang Chu leave her side, and Zhang Chu was a very filial child. Although he was a little dizzy from a working-class child to a third-generation rich second-generation, he still hoped that the two families could maintain their original lives at the request of Lin Fang, just as if there was an extra pair of parents.

Zhang Chu's choice made everyone feel relieved. Yan Jibei and Yu Tong promised that their industry would also have half of Zhang Chu in the future. On one side was their biological son, and on the other side was a child they raised themselves, which was equally important to them.

But Yan Jinyu could not accept such an arrangement. He felt that the happiness of the past twenty years had been stolen from Zhang Chu. He proposed to take his adoptive parents' industry, and he did not want a penny. After receiving more than twenty years of elite education, he believed that he could earn an industry for himself.

His choice made Yan Jibei and Yu Tong proud, and they began to try to train Zhang Chu to learn some financial and management knowledge, but Lin Fang was a little dissatisfied with this, but she did not show it.

The truth of why the two children were taken away by mistake was too far away, and it could not be investigated. Everyone regarded it as an accident. After this storm, because of the humility of Yan Jinyu and Zhang Chu, it seemed to gradually return to calm.

Zhang Chu often went to the Yan family to visit his biological parents, and Yan Jinyu also often came to the Zhang family to visit Lin Fang and Zhang Guoqing.

If it had always been like this, perhaps so many things would not have happened later.

I don’t know how Lin Fang brought up the children. From childhood to adulthood, Zhang Chu obeyed her words and was extremely filial. But since his identity was exposed, Zhang Chu sensitively noticed that his mother’s attention was more focused on Yan Jinyu. Lin Fang had unparalleled enthusiasm for that outstanding young man, especially the kindness in her eyes, which Zhang Chu had never felt before.

In the Yan family, the Yan family also prefers Yan Jinyu, an excellent child, and treats him more distantly than intimately. Every time he goes to the Yan family, he feels a sense of restraint as a guest.

People's jealousy is aroused bit by bit like this.

The two people who originally had no intersection were tied together because of this accident. The more outstanding Yan Jinyu is, the more incompetent Zhang Chu is. Obviously, he is the child of the Yan family and should be the one who is better.

The girl who has always been secretly in love with him, Zhao Xinhan, completely ignited the flame in Zhang Chu's heart.

The girl who has always been more than a friend and less than a lover with him actually agreed to date him. This is almost the happiest thing for Zhang Chu after his identity was exposed. However, less than two months of happiness, he witnessed with his own eyes that the girl he liked and Yan Jinyu were lying on the same bed.

Yan Jinyu explained to him that all this was an accident, but Zhang Chu did not believe it. In his opinion, Yan Jinyu was a deep-minded villain who was jealous of him and wanted to take away everything he cared about.

His mother, and his beloved woman.

Zhao Xinhan has been depressed since this incident, crying all day long, because Yan Jinyu refused to take responsibility. If Zhang Chu hadn't stopped her, she might have really committed suicide.

Seeing his beloved woman so sad and haggard because of Yan Jinyu, Zhang Chu suddenly had a whimsical idea, maybe if Yan Jinyu died, everything would be over.

Mom is still his mother, Zhao Xinhan can also forget the painful memories that Yan Jinyu brought her, put aside everything, and be with him.

With this idea, Zhang Chu did not think too much, and directly hired a few desperate men to buy Yan Jinyu's life.

The result was of course a failure. Zhang Chu's little trick was not hidden enough and was soon exposed.

How could the Yan family allow such a vicious descendant? After being disappointed with him, Lin Fang also hated this adopted son who actually tried to kill his own flesh and blood. In the end, Zhang Chu was deserted by everyone.

Although Zhang Guoqing did not understand Zhang Chu's behavior, he often appeared beside him when he was drunk and dreaming, taking care of his daily life and persuading him.

After this incident, Yan Jinyu went abroad. He planned to develop abroad and felt that if he was gone, Zhang Chu might be happier.

It was just that his departure made some people hate Zhang Chu even more, and the most serious one was Lin Fang.

When the identity swap between the two was exposed, it was Lin Fang who cried and made a fuss and didn't want Zhang Chu to leave her side. Now, it is precisely Lin Fang, the loving mother, who hates Zhang Chu the most for forcing Yan Jinyu to leave.

Zhang Chu was verbally attacked by his beloved mother every day. After getting drunk, he jumped from the 28th floor apartment and ended his life.

No one knows why he died. Everyone thinks that he was guilty and committed suicide because he felt guilty for hiring a killer.

After all, he is his biological son. Yan Jibei and Yu Tong shed a few tears for him. Lin Fang and Zhang Guoqing cried very sadly at his funeral. Everyone said that it is true that the birth of a child is not as good as the raising of a parent. Lin Fang's biological parents are the ones who love Zhang Chu the most, but it is a pity that Zhang Chu does not appreciate his blessings.

At the end of this world, Yan Jinyu had a career of his own abroad. Every year, he would come back to visit his parents on both sides, but he did not inherit Yan Jibei and Yu Tong's company in the end. This is a pity for the two families. Fortunately, there are other outstanding children in the Yan family and the Yu family, and there is no need to worry about the lack of successors.

Lin Fang and Zhang Guoqing also enjoyed the filial piety of their biological son. When Zhang Guoqing died, he only regretted one thing, that is, he did not pay enough attention to his adopted son during the period when he was drinking. If he could accompany him at that time, he might not have the opportunity to commit suicide. This is Zhang Guoqing's regret. Until the day he died, he still talked about this matter.

As for Zhao Xinhan, she married a rich second-generation with considerable assets, and her life was rich and smooth.

Except for the original body, everyone lived a good life.

The wisher in this world is Zhang Guoqing. He hopes that his adopted son can live this life smoothly.

In the previous life, many people actually owed him. Even though Zhang Chu became crazy and did many unreasonable things, it did not mean that others were not wrong, including him. He hoped that they could all recognize the mistakes they made.

There is another side quest, which is not mandatory. Zhang Guoqing hopes to find out who accidentally exchanged the two children. Whether it was the nurse's mistake or someone's deliberate act, all the tragedies were caused by this accident, and that person should be punished enough.

After absorbing these memories, Yan Chu felt that there was a very contradictory character in it.

If the behaviors of other people have enough explanations, then Lin Fang's series of reactions after she found out that her son was not her son can be called inconsistent.

Yan Chu's question just now was actually his test.

He only said a few key words such as Yanjing, surname Yan, and born on the same day of the same month of the same year, and Lin Fang showed a very flustered expression.

Yan Chu was almost sure of his speculation. Lin Fang knew that Zhang Chu was not her biological son. Perhaps she was the one who exchanged the two children in the hospital, or it is possible that she knew who exchanged the two children.

Of these two possibilities, the former is more likely.

Yan Chu only used the memory of his original body and the plot of this world as a reference. His experience in the previous life told him that sometimes memory would be flawed, and some details might be ignored by memory. All the appearances in front of him were not necessarily the whole truth.

Perhaps in the original world, the truth had never been revealed.

He was now hesitating whether to reveal the mystery of their life experience in advance or wait for the development of the plot.

******

Lin Fang stayed in her bedroom. The curtains blocked the sunlight. The room was dark without lights on.

She curled up on the bed, her fingers tightly grasping the corner of the quilt, her body trembling slightly.

Her son, could that be her son?

Lin Fang's heart was eroded by longing. How had he lived these years? He should have lived well. How could a family like the Yan family treat their only son badly?

What did he look like now? He should be as handsome and tall as his father, right? Was he very good at studying? His father was a genius who skipped several grades and completed university studies at a young age.

Lin Fang trembled with excitement. That was her son, the best child in the world.

But...

Lin Fang was a little panicked. How could he come to Pinghai City and run into Zhang Chu?

Yan is not a common surname. In addition, they are both from Yanjing and were born on the same day of the same month of the same year. Lin Fang didn't think there would be such a coincidence.

She was worried that everything that happened would be exposed, and she was eager to see her son whom she had not seen for 19 years. She was confused for a while.
