Chapter 174: Shamelessness Can Be Inherited

Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee

Tang Xi smiled while gazing at Xiao Jinning, but her eyes were cold. She said, “You’re such a smart person. You should know when you do bad things, you shouldn’t leave any evidence. How come every time you do bad things to me, you leave evidence to tell the world that you did it?”

Xiao Jinning’s face turned black as she looked at Tang Xi coldly and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. What bad things did I do to you?” She leaned back in her chair, looking at Tang Xi coldly. “When you ran out and had an accident, I was the first one to find you. If I hadn’t called for help, you would have died there.”

“Haha...” Tang Xi lowered her head and laughed out loud, but her laughter caused Xiao Jinning sitting opposite her to feel a chill on her spine. Tang Xi suddenly looked up at her and said word by word, “Even if you are the real daughter of the Xiao Family, so what? Your parents only want me as their daughter, and your fiancé Brother Chengyu has been taking care of me since childhood and is engaged to me. You’re just an ugly duckling the Xiao Family abandoned!”

“Go to hell, Xiao Rou!

“Only if you die can no one threaten my status!”

Xiao Jinning’s face turned darker and darker with every word Tang Xi spoke. Tang Xi raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Jinning who became more and more embarrassed with every word she spoke. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Do you feel ashamed?”

Xiao Jinning took a deep breath, having lost her composure, and said coldly, “Why should I feel ashamed? I wasn’t the one who made your parents take the wrong child. Since it was their fault, they should bear the consequences! Why should I give you everything I have as soon as you come back? Is that fair to me?”

Listening to Xiao Jinning, Tang Xi gave a sardonic smile. She slightly tilted her head as she looked at Xiao Jinning and mocked, “You’re really a daughter worthy of your mother. You speak and behave exactly like her. I didn’t believe in genetic inheritance before, but now I do because of your family. Shamelessness can be inherited!”

Xiao Jinning didn’t feel angry in the least at hearing Tang Xi mock her parents. She merely looked at Tang Xi with a sneer and said coldly, “You’re no better than me! How could you call your foster parents shameless? Xiao Rou, you’re no better than me, aren’t you?”

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows as she looked at Xiao Jinning and chuckled, her mirth full of sarcasm. “You’re thinking too much! The Yao Family people are no match for you in terms of shamelessness. They’re very good people and won’t have a daughter as shameless as you!”

Xiao Jinning’s face changed as she frowned and screamed, “Tang Xi, what do you mean?”

Tang Xi was very satisfied with Xiao Jinning’s reaction. She shook the recording pen in her hand and leaned back on her chair. “This is your mother’s confession. And after you hear what she said, you’ll know why I said shamelessness can be inherited, because no one apart from psychos would do such things.”

Tang Xi was going to turn on the loudspeaker, when Xiao Jinning suddenly shouted, “I don’t want to listen!”

Tang Xi sneered, “It’s not up to you!” Then she turned on the loudspeaker.

This was a new recording pen, so as soon as Tang Xi pressed the key, Lin Jiao’s voice rang out...

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have done that. I was pregnant, but I didn’t know who my baby’s father was. I wanted to abort the baby, but your grandmother asked me to keep her. She said your mother was pregnant too, and we could ask your mom to raise my baby. I thought it was a good idea. My daughter deserved a good life too, so I hid. When your mother gave birth to you in City W, I rushed to City W that very night to give birth to Jinning by a cesarean delivery. Your grandmother is your mom’s mother, so she easily took you out. As you were newborns, no one could recognize you. As long as we replaced your identification tags, you and Jinning could be swapped.”

...

After hearing the audio recording, Xiao Jinning’s face had become ghastly pale. It turned out that her aunt, whom she had always despised, was her mother... She was already ruined now. If this audio was spread, she would never be able to stand in public again...

Chief Lan, who had been sitting in the observation room and watching the good show, suddenly stood up in astonishment. God, what had he just heard?!

How could Xiao Rou and her mother be so unlucky to have such a horrible family?! Xiao Rou’s grandmother was truly wicked! Why did she swap her two daughters’ children... Both of them were her children. How could she be so partial?!

And Xiao Jinning’s mother was really shameless! She wanted to kill a baby...

Chief Lan just had a grandson, so he couldn’t bear to hear of any child being abused. As soon as he imagined a child as small as his grandson being thrown deep into the mountains and driven to the brink of death, he felt indignant. He got up to leave the observation room, walked to the door and called two policemen. The two policemen, a bit nervous being called by him, walked over. Chief Lan looked at them and said solemnly, “Go check who the family members of Tao Yan are.”

The two policemen wondered why, but as they did not dare to ask, they hurried to check it. Chief Lan returned to the observation room and sat down.

Just as he sat down, Xiao Jinning jumped up and attempted to snatch the recording pen from Tang Xi. This audio could not be held onto by Tang Xi; otherwise, she would surely expose it. If that happened, even if she defeated Tang Xi, she would have no chance to regain what she had owned!

With this thought in mind, Xiao Jinning looked resolute and ferocious.

Tang Xi didn’t expect Xiao Jinning to dare attack her at the police station! And most importantly, she had no strength to fight against Xiao Jinning!

At this moment, Xiao Jinning had shoved Tang Xi down on the ground. At the same time, Chief Lan jumped to his feet from his seat in the observation room and hurried into the interrogation room, calling for people as he ran.

Tang Xi knew that she was not physically strong enough to resist Xiao Jinning, as 008 had warned her, but she didn’t expect herself to be so weak... She fell to the ground and couldn’t even fight back as soon as Xiao Jinning shoved her down. But just when she was going to call for help, the door of the interrogation room was yanked open.
