Shu Jingcheng pondered for a few seconds. "Yuanfeng, here is what I'm thinking. Our Nannan didn't have any birthmarks on her, so I can only trouble you to get a few strands of her hair for me to run a DNA test."
"Of course. No matter the result, I will personally go to her and explain everything when the time comes. I'm holding off on saying anything right now mainly because I'm afraid the child might feel uncomfortable if she finds out."
Ouyang Yuanfeng knew their consideration was perfectly reasonable. "Alright, I'll have the servants find a few strands of her hair. If it is her, you can decide how to reunite with her. If not, I will go with you to apologize to the child."
Shu Jingcheng and Wen Xin were naturally deeply grateful.
After returning home, Ouyang Yuanfeng quietly spoke to the servants. It wasn't until the next morning that a servant managed to collect a few strands of hair from the guest room where Shu Qingqing and Lu Bochuan were staying.
Once Shu Jingcheng got the hair, he immediately sent it for a paternity test.
Thanks to a friend's help, the test results came out the very next afternoon.
Shu Jingcheng opened the document. When he saw the number 99.99, his tears could no longer be held back and streamed down his face.
"Wen Xin, that girl is our Nannan! We found our daughter."
Wen Xin grabbed the report, and after reading it, she also broke down in tears.
After a long while, Shu Jingcheng wiped away his and his wife's tears. "Yuanfeng, I want to formally reunite with my child."
Ouyang Yuanfeng was naturally very happy for them. "That is a must, but... I need to talk to Bochuan about this first. I'll have him give Qingqing a heads-up so the child can be mentally prepared."
Shu Jingcheng and Wen Xin naturally agreed.
Ouyang Yuanfeng returned home and invited Lu Bochuan into the study. "Bochuan, I need to apologize to you first. Without getting Qingqing's permission, I had a servant collect a few strands of hair from her room..."
Ouyang Yuanfeng explained the entire situation from beginning to end.
Seeing Lu Bochuan frowning and staying silent, Ouyang Yuanfeng grew worried. "Bochuan, what are you thinking? Do you not want to tell Qingqing about this?"
Lu Bochuan shook his head. "No, Qingqing definitely wants to find her biological parents too. But I think I should do another DNA test on my end. If it's true, then I'll tell Qingqing, to save her from potential disappointment."
Ouyang Yuanfeng thought Lu Bochuan's consideration was very thorough, so he passed the message along to Shu Jingcheng.
When the test results came out again, it was still 99.99 percent.
When Shu Qingqing woke up from her afternoon nap, she saw Lu Bochuan sitting beside her, staring at her.
Shu Qingqing poked him. "What are you doing?"
Lu Bochuan lay down and pulled her into his arms. "I said before that once the matter with Li Dagang was settled, I would help you find your parents."
Shu Qingqing murmured in agreement.
Of course she remembered. The original owner of her body had gone missing at the age of four. Although she had no memory of her parents' faces, she remembered that they were very good to her. So, after she started working, she had been looking for them, though without any clues.
Lu Bochuan gently turned her to face him. "If they found you, would you be happy?"
Shu Qingqing stiffened. "Lu Bochuan, are you saying..."
"Qingqing, Wen Xin and Shu Jingcheng recognized that you looked like their daughter and did a paternity test. So, they are your parents." Lu Bochuan recounted everything Ouyang Yuanfeng had told him. "They want to officially reunite with you, are you willing?"
Her heart began to pound wildly. It seemed the original owner's body had also heard these words. Then, a bittersweet ache spread throughout her chest.
Shu Qingqing abruptly sat up. "Are they really my parents?"
Lu Bochuan nodded. "To ensure the results were reliable, we did the test twice."
Shu Qingqing's fingers began to tremble uncontrollably. "It's actually them. No wonder... that day Uncle Jingcheng kept looking at me, and I felt a sense of familiarity. Is this the magic of bloodlines?"
Hearing her say this, Lu Bochuan knew she was happy. "Then shall we get up? They have been longing to see you."
Shu Qingqing nodded.
Ouyang Yuanfeng had already notified Wen Xin and Shu Jingcheng to come over.
Seeing Lu Bochuan leading her in, the couple immediately stood up.
"Qingqing..." Shu Jingcheng took a step forward, wanting to hold her hand but hesitating.
Behind him, Wen Xin was already in tears.
Lu Bochuan gently squeezed Shu Qingqing's hand. "Go on."
Shu Qingqing nodded, smiled as she walked toward Shu Jingcheng, and grasped his half-extended hand. "Dad."
Then she turned to Wen Xin and called out, "Mom."
Shu Jingcheng and Wen Xin both responded. They had thought their Nannan wouldn't accept them right away, but to their surprise, they heard her call them mom and dad.
The two held Shu Qingqing in their arms and cried for a long time, repeatedly apologizing to her.
It wasn't until Lu Bochuan came over to comfort them that the couple finally pulled Shu Qingqing to sit down on the sofa.
"Qingqing, it's all Mom's fault for losing you. You've suffered so much. Dad and Mom will definitely do everything in our power to make it up to you."
Shu Qingqing finally learned that the original owner had gone missing because they were taking her on a train back to their hometown for the New Year. The train station was too crowded, and the nanny hadn't held onto her properly, thus losing the child.
The couple had been searching for their child in the country for many years. Six years ago, Wen Xin fell seriously ill while on the road looking for her. Shu Jingcheng brought her to Finland for treatment, which was why they temporarily settled here.
But they had never stopped searching.
Shu Qingqing found it incredibly surreal. She had also gone missing at the age of four, and in her memory, it was also at a train station.
Perhaps parallel universes really did exist, and the original owner was just herself in another world.
Shu Jingcheng and Wen Xin asked her many more questions, as if wanting to understand everything she had experienced over the years.
Then, Wen Xin suddenly took out a document folder from her side.
"Sweetheart, this is what Mom and Dad have saved for you over the years. There's a hundred million in the card for your pocket money. And this," Wen Xin took out a piece of jade, "this was left to you by your grandfather. His greatest wish before he passed away was to see you one last time. Unfortunately, Mom couldn't find you back then."
Speaking of this, Wen Xin became upset again.
Shu Qingqing comforted her for a long time before she finally stopped crying.
Wen Xin wiped away her tears and brought out a stack of property deeds. "These are all the properties Mom and Dad own in Finland. Of course, if there aren't any you like in here, Mom will go with you to buy a new one."
Shu Jingcheng chimed in, "Do you prefer a villa or a flat? I heard there's a villa for sale in the city center. How about Mom and Dad take you to see it tomorrow? If you like it, we'll buy it and move in. This winter, we can go skiing and see the northern lights together. From now on, you don't have to work, and you don't need to rush into marriage. Mom and Dad can take care of you for the rest of your life."
Lu Bochuan opened his mouth, just about to speak, when he heard Wen Xin add,
"Or we could settle down in New Zealand. The environment there is really nice too."
Shu Qingqing looked at Lu Bochuan, who clearly wanted to object but didn't know how to start, and tried hard to hold back her laughter. "...Mom, Dad, did you forget that I'm already married?"
