"My daughter’s name is Jiang Lei, formerly known as Xu Chunxia. She’s my daughter who I’ve been separated from for many years. She suffered a lot of abuse at her adoptive parents’ house. Not long ago, she mentioned to me that she met you, her childhood playmate, at the kindergarten where she works. She told me about the conflict between you two and was afraid that you would inform her adoptive parents that she found her biological mother in North City, which made her live in constant fear. Earlier this morning, I received a call from the principal of the kindergarten where my daughter works, saying that she hasn’t shown up for work for two or three days. Can you say this has nothing to do with you?"
Fang Su’s face was cold, her eyes critical as she looked at Kang Li: "You better tell me the truth, or else I will really call the police!"
"Your daughter’s disappearance really has nothing to do with me. If you want to call the police, feel free. Besides, I don’t care what your daughter’s name is; she has nothing to do with me. I don’t have the time to deal with other people’s affairs," Kang Li said calmly and firmly. She gestured towards the living room door, "Please, my home only welcomes guests, not people who stir up trouble for no reason, and certainly not unrelated people."
"It seems that unless the police come looking for you, you’re not willing to tell me where my daughter is, right?"
Fang Su could see that Kang Li was speaking the truth, yet she disliked Kang Li for some reason and didn’t want to leave just like that. So, she stood where she was, still arrogantly demanding answers from Kang Li.
"Comrade Fang, there’s something I didn’t want to say, but I’ve decided to kindly tell you now. Losing a daughter is indeed pitiful, but randomly claiming someone as your daughter is a bit stupid, isn’t it?
In our village, everyone knows that Xu Chunxia was born to her mother in the field. If you don’t believe it, go ask around yourself. How you reckoned Xu Chunxia as your daughter, I don’t know, nor do I care to know. But if you insist on involving me in your muddled business with Xu Chunxia and blame me for not being able to find her,
I don’t mind telling the police that Xu Chunxia’s disappearance might have been engineered by you. For example, by pretending to recognize her as your daughter while secretly engaging in human trafficking.
Don’t think I’m just making things up, or that the police won’t believe me. After all, more than one person knows about you claiming Xu Chunxia as your daughter. When the police investigate, you won’t be able to clear your name!"
After hearing Kang Li’s words, Fang Su’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot: "You’re slandering me!" She pointed at Kang Li: "Do you believe that if you say one more word, I’ll tear your mouth apart?"
"Are you this agitated because I hit a nerve, Comrade Fang?"
