Chapter 793 Unable to Return to North City
"To be honest, everyone has only heard of this place and can't confirm whether it's true or not. But I'm more inclined to believe that it really exists."

Since the boss and his group fled northwest, it suggests there must have been a place there that could provide them with shelter. However, the exact location remains unknown.

"I always thought you and Xiao Ye were their subordinates, so how exactly did you organize yourselves?"

“During the escape, we were all separated. But a core group always kept in touch, so we regrouped and gradually expanded our team while searching for others.”

Wang Yang nodded slightly. It seemed that this organization had developed step by step over a long period of time.

“We now have several companies under our umbrella, and have achieved a certain scale. But over the years, we have never dared to act rashly against Shen Qiang, because we know that his strength is far beyond our imagination. Later, we decided to place Xiao Ye by his side.”

This decision proved to be quite wise. The true strength of Shen Qiang that Xiao Ye discovered was indeed astonishing. Fortunately, they didn't act rashly at the time, otherwise they might have given the other party a handle to use against them.

"We also found out that Shen Qing is not actually Shen Qiang's biological daughter. Xiao Ye should have already told you about this, right?"

Wang Yang nodded in response: "I was indeed aware of it. I just felt that this matter wouldn't be of much help in finding Peach Blossom Spring, so I didn't investigate it in depth. Besides, it would be very difficult for me to find out the truth on my own."

After a moment's thought, Wenming realized that Wang Yang's words made sense. Wang Yang had only gotten close to Shen Qiang later and didn't know much about his past, so asking him to investigate was indeed asking too much of him.

“That’s right. If Shen Qing’s identity were simple, I naturally wouldn’t care. Who Shen Qiang adopts is none of our business. The key is that I suspect she might be someone’s daughter on our side.”

This speculation took Wang Yang by surprise; he had never considered such a possibility.

"But if she really is one of our people's children, how did she end up in Shen Qiang's hands?"

“Shen Qiang was one of the people who hunted us down back then, but he was the one who hid the deepest. He was the one who leaked all the information to the outside world. It was he who revealed the secret of Peach Blossom Spring that attracted the hunt, and he also acted as an inside man.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Yang broke out in a cold sweat. Just as he had guessed, the traitor was indeed Shen Qiang.

"I never imagined he could be so cruel. Didn't he say my parents treated him very well?"

"That's true, but he's a venomous snake that bites back. All these years later, not only has he not repented, but he continues to hunt down and eliminate us completely, while also searching for a utopia. Fortunately, God protected us and didn't let him succeed."

However, fate did not allow them to find their people, and they have no idea what their boss's current situation is.

"We will continue to investigate Shen Qing's true identity. However, due to the passage of time, we originally considered that Shen Qing might remember something, but we dared not ask rashly."

Wang Yang was somewhat puzzled: "But Shen Qing should have been a baby back then, right? She probably wouldn't have any memory of it."

“You’re right. But I remember Shen Qing has always had a nanny taking care of her. She’s someone who grew up with her since she was a child, so maybe she knows something.”

Wang Yang frowned and recalled that there was indeed a woman, about forty or fifty years old, taking care of Shen Qing. He hadn't paid much attention to it before, only knowing that they were very close.

“There is such a person, I have met her. But I didn’t know she had taken care of Shen Qing since she was a child, I thought she was the nanny that Shen Qiang hired later.”

"That person was essentially her wet nurse. It's said that she started taking care of Shen Qing the day she was born, so the wet nurse likely knew who Shen Qing's father was."

Wang Yang agreed, but the problem was that they were currently far away in the Northwest, while the wet nurse was in Haicheng. "How about this, I send someone to bring the wet nurse out and question her carefully? But if we do that, Shen Qiang might find out."

Moreover, if he hadn't personally intervened, the wet nurse would probably have been even more suspicious.

"Actually, the best way is to tell Shen Qing the truth and let her investigate herself, and let her ask the wet nurse herself."

Wang Yang hesitated. He had always wanted Shen Qing to stay out of these things, especially since they concerned her background.

"But Shen Qing is innocent after all. I'm worried that she won't be able to handle the shock of suddenly finding out that Shen Qiang is not her biological father."

"But she'll find out the truth sooner or later. We can't expect her to recognize a thief as her father, can we? If she really is our child, then Shen Qiang is her greatest enemy. It's already painful enough that she's recognized her enemy as her father for so many years."

Wang Yang understood perfectly well that this matter was far too cruel for anyone.

“Wang Yang, we think it’s best if you tell Shen Qing this yourself. After all, you’re the closest to her.”

Along the way, Wenming also learned from Xiaoye that Shen Qing's true love was actually Wang Yang. It was truly a twist of fate; originally, Wang Yang should have been the one engaged to Shen Qing.

"By the way, Shen Qiang himself said that my parents were still alive when his daughter was born. So he did have a biological child."

“You’re right. I remember when he came over, he was indeed carrying a baby girl. The child was about your age, which is why we arranged a marriage between our children.”

Wenming recalled the scene at the time. He remembered that Shen Qiang was overjoyed, never expecting to be able to marry into such a family.

Logically, he should have been content, but as the saying goes, human nature is never satisfied, and he still had such ambitions.

"So, this daughter is someone who was adopted later? What about his biological daughter? Did she get separated during the chase?"

Wang Yang felt that this possibility existed, but it was more likely that the child was already dead.

"If we follow this logic, if Shen Qingruo is really the child of one of our people, then she could never be the baby that Shen Qiang was holding at the beginning."

“You’re right. Our current investigation is largely based on speculation, and we ultimately need confirmation from the wet nurse. Wang Yang, this task must be completed by you.”

Of all these people, Wang Yang was the closest to Shen Qing, so this heavy responsibility naturally fell on his shoulders.

Besides, Shen Qing already had feelings for him, so she would be more likely to accept the truth if he told her. Otherwise, she might very well make a scene and insist on returning to Beicheng.

“Even if she finds it hard to accept at first, you must make sure she can’t contact Shen Qiang, let alone return to Beicheng.”

If Shen Qing appears before Shen Qiang after learning the truth, he will immediately notice her. This would put Shen Qing in grave danger.

“You should know Shen Qiang’s character very well. The fact that he brought Shen Qing to such a dangerous place shows that he doesn’t treat her like his own daughter at all. Once he finds out that Shen Qing knows the truth, he might very well poison her.”
