Chapter 1372: Leaving Her Child Behind to Wander Distant Lands
"Of course, I’m fine, just worried about you," Wen Jiaxin’s voice rang out.
"No problem, I can handle it," Xia Yinian responded.
The car slowly left the bustling city and drove into the suburbs; the surroundings became increasingly desolate.
"That place doesn’t even have coordinates on the map. The people who live there are truly something else," Wen Jiaxin said after a long while.
"How much longer approximately?" Xia Yinian leaned forward slightly.
"At least twenty more minutes, it depends on the condition of the road ahead," Wen Jiaxin expertly maneuvered the sedan.
"Should’ve gotten an off-road vehicle, who knows how rough the last stretch will be."
"With your driving skills, it shouldn’t be an issue," Xia Yinian subtly smiled.
"Of course, I’m just worried about jolting our future Third Young Mistress," Wen Jiaxin’s face carried a smile as well.
"I told you Feng Yan is my brother, why won’t you believe me?" Xia Yinian frowned slightly.
He really is her brother. However, the meaning of the word ’brother’ can be quite broad, and these guys can think whatever they like.
"Yes, I didn’t say I don’t believe you," Wen Jiaxin’s smile wasn’t bad.
He was indeed a bit worried earlier, but seeing Xia Yinian’s confidence, he had nothing to worry about.
The two people in the car exchanged words, and twenty minutes quickly passed.
"Nian Nian, do you see the house at the base of the mountain?"
Xia Yinian looked in the direction Wen Jiaxin pointed and indeed saw a building hidden in the forest.
"Is it this place?" She pressed her lips together and asked gravely.
"According to our investigation, that woman lives here," Wen Jiaxin replied.
Looking at this almost invisible house, Xia Yinian’s mood suddenly grew heavier.
Earlier, she thought Wen Jiaxin took a shortcut, hence the long, muddy road. She didn’t expect the woman to live in such a remote place.
What made a woman abandon her child, leave everything behind, and come to such a secluded spot for over twenty years?
Was she cruel? Xia Yinian couldn’t believe it.
Even though she hadn’t become a mother yet, she knew a sound person couldn’t possibly abandon their child, disappear for decades.
Now, what Xia Yinian was most concerned about was why she wanted to kill her?
If she only wanted to see her son, Xia Yinian knew, just a hint would bring Beicheng rushing over.
Beicheng had always been seeking Mom. He never said it, but she knew.
Therefore, killing her to see her son didn’t explain it.
The only possibility Xia Yinian could think of now was her identity, her true identity.
Did Beicheng’s biological mother really have some history with the Feng Family?
Is it because of this possibility, that Beicheng did so much but still refused to let her return home?
After meditating for a while, Xia Yinian’s car arrived at a vine-covered entrance.
This place, aside from a conspicuous entrance, didn’t even have a door.
Moreover, as they approached, the house they saw earlier was now nowhere to be seen.
"Nian Nian, do you know that woman?"
Seeing how desolate the place was, Wen Jiaxin regretted not giving Feng Yan a heads-up about their outing.
But the boss had mentioned, in the future, they should just listen to Nian Nian. As she didn’t mention it, he shouldn’t say much either!
