Chapter 354 The truth about the adoption back then!
Lin Ning got Mu Shaoling's whereabouts through Zhang Yali and learned that he was coming to Lan Zun for dinner. She dressed up excitedly and wanted to have a casual encounter with him.
Unexpectedly, he actually brought Ruan Bai with him.
What is so good about Ruan Bai that he is so favored by him!
What made Lin Ning even more uneasy was that here she actually met Qin Xiaoxi, the girl who had grown up in an orphanage with her.
Lin Ning closed her eyes and forced herself not to think about all the misfortunes in the past.
But the past events are still replaying in my mind like scenes from a movie.
She was six years old and was adopted from an orphanage in the same year as Qin Xiaoxi, who was five years old.
At that time, she was sallow and thin, and she was taciturn all day, looking like a child from a refugee slum; but when Qin Xiaoxi came, she was wearing a fluffy princess dress and a crown headband, and she was as beautiful as a
Glowing little angel.
Moreover, Qin Xiaoxi has a very good temper and is versatile. She can sing, dance, and tell various fairy tales vividly. Every child in the orphanage, both boys and girls, likes her, and everyone revolves around Qin Xiaoxi all day long.
As for me, who has low self-esteem and is weak, no one cares about me.
Lin Ning has never understood why Qin Xiaoxi ended up in an orphanage when she looked like a child from a wealthy family who was favored by thousands of people.
However, she didn't want to understand either.
She only knows that what she likes is to have other people's eyes focused on herself, not that everyone likes Qin Xiaoxi!
At the age of six, she had a deep love for Qin Xiaoxi on the surface, but secretly she used various methods to frame Qin Xiaoxi: stealing things, beating people, putting bugs in the beds of her friends, burning the public property of the orphanage...
A series of dirty water was poured on Qin Xiaoxi continuously...
In the end, she successfully squeezed out Qin Xiaoxi's important position in the orphanage and became the most well-behaved and sensible child in the eyes of all her friends and the director.
Qin Xiaoxi was positioned as a "thief" and a "problem child". Almost everyone was extremely disgusted and rejected her. Qin Xiaoxi's childhood was spent in cold violence. This situation lasted for five years.
Until that day, Lin Wenzheng and his wife came to the orphanage to choose a child for adoption.
Lin Ning knew that when the opportunity to change her destiny came, she must seize it firmly and leave the terrible prison of the orphanage.
Lin Ning, who has lived here for many years, naturally knows that on the surface this orphanage is a supported charity place, but the living conditions inside it are extremely harsh. There is not enough food and clothing to keep warm every day, and every year there are
Many beautiful children disappeared for no reason, and of course more children came to replace them, which made her feel particularly strange.
Lin Ning didn't understand what was going on at first, but then she accidentally overheard a conversation between the dean and others, and then she understood their dirty behavior.
On the surface, they built this orphanage as a charity, but in fact they were raising girls for some people.
When the children reach a certain age, they will sell them into the hands of those bad guys and let them play with them.
As for Qin Xiaoxi, what Lin Ning heard from their conversation was that because she was too beautiful, they planned to treat her as a Yangzhou thin horse and raise her until she was eighteen years old. When she grew up, they would sell her directly to the rich and cruel.
Make a serious profit.
And what about yourself?
Lin Ning overheard the dean saying that in a year or two, she would be sold to a disabled rich old man who likes to play with virgins...
At that time, after hearing the terrible news, Lin Ning broke out in a cold sweat. She couldn't imagine how tragic her end would be if she fell into the hands of that rich man.
Looking at the children in the orphanage who didn't know what sorrow was all day long, and Qin Xiaoxi's beautiful and innocent little face, Lin Ning secretly scolded them for being stupid for not knowing that trouble was coming.
Lin Ning had nightmares every day. At that time, she was already secretly planning an escape route.
The opportunity finally came.
When the news came that Secretary Lin of the Provincial Party Committee had come to the orphanage to adopt children, all the children were so excited that they couldn't sleep. They all dressed up beautifully, hoping that they would be selected by Secretary Lin.
Lin Ning is not afraid of anyone except Qin Xiaoxi, who is prettier than herself. She is confident. After all, no one is prettier than her except Qin Xiaoxi.
Although Qin Xiaoxi's reputation was very bad at that time, Lin Ning was still afraid that Secretary Lin and his wife would like the more beautiful Qin Xiaoxi. She would never allow this to happen!
Therefore, the night before Secretary Lin and his wife came to the orphanage, Lin Ning secretly put an overdose of laxatives into Qin Xiaoxi's rice bowl, causing her to have diarrhea all night and almost collapse.
The next day, Qin Xiaoxi didn't even have the strength to climb out of bed, so she missed the opportunity for the Lin family and his wife to choose a child.
Without Qin Xiaoxi as the biggest threat, Lin Ning quickly won the favor of the Lin family and his wife with her cute, good-looking appearance and clever mind. She was brought back to the Lin family, and from then on, she lived as privileged as a princess.
A noble life.
The orphanage that made her tremble when she mentioned it still existed at that time. Although Lin Ning left, she did not report the orphanage. She did not have the kindness to meddle in other people's affairs.
From then on, Lin Ning began to live her life like a wealthy lady with peace of mind.
At the beginning in the Lin family, she was still cautious and trembling, fearing that she would not perform well and be abandoned by the Lin family and his wife.
However, her adoptive mother Zhou Qing is sincerely good to her, and even her adoptive father Lin Wenzheng treats her as her own child.
Slowly, Lin Ning really felt that she was a veritable daughter of the Lin family, and her temper gradually grew...
Later, a few years later, Lin Ning heard that the shady orphanage was finally closed down by the police, the director and a certain big shot were arrested, and all the orphans were transferred to another charity organization.
She has been secretly paying attention to Qin Xiaoxi. After all, that girl is the girl she has always regarded as her strong rival.
Later, Lin Ning heard that Qin Xiaoxi left the orphanage and started working part-time. It was said that her life was extremely poor, not much different from when she was in the orphanage.
Qin Xiaoxi's bad life is completely incomparable to her golden phoenix life in the Lin family.
However, Qin Xiaoxi became more and more beautiful, and Lin Ning couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, she had used some means at that time, otherwise the girl chosen by her adoptive parents would most likely be the beautiful and obedient Qin Xiaoxi, which made her feel lucky and jealous at the same time.
No one knows that she has always wanted to ruin Qin Xiaoxi's beautiful face.
Later, seventeen-year-old Qin Xiaoxi suddenly disappeared one day...
Lin Ning heard that it was because Qin Xiaoxi was raped and became pregnant, so she disappeared.
At that time, she was still gloating about the misfortune for a long time.
But why did Qin Xiaoxi, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appear in Lan Zun, dressed as a waiter, and talk to that scheming woman Ruan Bai?
