Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 229 Ah Xi, something terrible has happened to your family!
Because she gave birth to twins, Gu Jianing didn't have enough breast milk.

Therefore, the two children are now being fed a combination of breast milk and formula.

It's not bad, both little ones are healthy and chubby.

Jiang Baihe and Zhang Shuwan's children sometimes experience health problems, but Xingxing and Yueyue have never had these issues.

Gu Jianing knew that this was because she had given the two little ones some health-strengthening pills.

As for the health-strengthening pill, there is a 30% chance that it will unlock hidden potential. So far, Gu Jianing has not seen anything unusual in the two children.

When the children turned one month old, Gu Jianing hung the amulets that the system rewarded her with on the wrists of the two children.

It's called a possession talisman, and before it's taken out, you can freely choose what it looks like.

Gu Jianing chose the shape of a red rope, which was simple and inconspicuous.

Then it was put on the two children's fair and tender little hands, which were like lotus roots.

Of course, Sheng Zexi, herself, her mother, Grandma Sang, and Gu Jianing also gave it to them.

It's also a red string design, but it's not described as an amulet; it's just a red string that can bring peace and safety, a kind of blessing.

Yao Chunhua, Grandma Sang, and others all accepted it.

They simply took it as Gu Jianing's blessing to them.

Moreover, Xingxing and Yueyue wear them too, that's what family is all about.

Sheng Zexi, on the other hand, saw Gu Jianing personally put a red string on his wrist and knew it was a talisman.

Sheng Zexi immediately understood that this amulet was not just a blessing, but a real talisman that could save you when you were in danger.

Gu Jianing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the amulet on Sheng Zexi's wrist.

After all, Brother Xi is often on missions and is the most likely to encounter danger.

With this amulet by her side, she felt a little more at ease.

A talisman can only protect you from one fatal danger.

If it weren't for the fact that one person can only wear one amulet at a time, Gu Jianing would have liked to give him several more.

Just as I finished putting it on, a soldier at the door came and said that Sheng Zexi had called, and it was Hua Zhenrong calling.

"I'll go to the communications office first to see if Zhenrong needs to see me."

"it is good."

Soon, Sheng Zexi arrived at the communications office and answered the phone.

"I am Sheng Zexi."

"Axi, something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened to your family?"

"what's up?"

On the other end of the phone, Hua Zhenrong said something quickly, and Sheng Zexi's eyes immediately lit up.

He was right!
Beijing compound.

The Sheng family, Fang Wanrong's son, 10-year-old Sheng Zerui, has just been taken away by the army.

The reason is that Sheng Zerui, like Li Shuyao, was switched at birth, and the current Sheng Zerui is a citizen of R country.

Upon hearing this news, Fang Wanrong felt as if her world was collapsing.

That was her son, whom she had raised with great difficulty for 10 years.

She poured so much effort into him and placed such high hopes on him.

But now, they tell her.

That wasn't her son; he was from Country R.

And her own son is dead?

No, Fang Wanrong refused to believe it!

Looking disheveled and dejected, Fang Wanrong practically tumbled over to Sheng Xinhao, who was sitting on the sofa, and grabbed his hand.

"Husband, please save our Arui! He's our son! You can't just stand by and watch him die! This might be some kind of conspiracy by Sheng Zexi. Yes, it must be." Fang Wanrong felt that this might be a vicious scheme by Sheng Zexi to get rid of his brother. How could her Arui not be her son?

Sheng Xinhao frowned, his face grim. "Wanrong, what are you saying? What does this have to do with the boss?"

"The military just said that they are conducting a full investigation into Li Shuyao's alleged involvement as an enemy agent, and many people have been identified recently, with Arui being just one of them."

"Since the military was able to take him away, it means they've investigated thoroughly. Haven't you seen the evidence?"

“Wanrong, I understand your heartache. As a father, I am also heartbroken. But there’s nothing we can do. Our Arui was switched at birth. The Arui we have now is not our son.”

To be honest, after Li Shuyao's incident, Sheng Xinhao's initial thought was only that he had previously planned for Li Shuyao to be his daughter-in-law; he didn't think much about anything else.

Even if later it is learned that there are still babies like Li Shuyao who were switched at birth to be Japanese citizens, and that an investigation is underway.

But Sheng Xinhao never thought that such a "lucky" thing would happen to his Sheng family.

Sheng Zexi, in particular, looks exactly the same.

Those faces were enough to prove they were father and son.

As for his youngest son, he didn't think about it.

But unexpectedly, it happened to the youngest son.

The youngest son, Sheng Zerui, was also switched at birth and died.

I just saw Sheng Zerui struggling as he was taken away.

Sheng Xinhao couldn't describe his feelings.

Even knowing that her youngest son was not capable enough, she did not intend to pass the family business on to him.

But Sheng Xinhao also doted on this youngest son.

Even if we can't let him inherit the family business, he is still our own bloodline, and we can still ensure he lives a comfortable life afterward.

But to his surprise, he turned out not to be his blood relative.

They are from R country, and may even be enemy agents later.

When he arrived here, Sheng Xinhao felt somewhat fortunate.

Sheng Zerui is still quite young, only 10 years old, so the R country hasn't contacted him yet, nor have they asked him to steal any intelligence.

Sheng Xinhao thought that if Sheng Zerui wanted to steal intelligence, the most valuable person would be him.

If it is indeed stolen and causes significant damage, it will have a very large impact on him.

If, if Sheng Zerui's mission is to kill him.

Then, is his life also in danger?
Thinking of this, Sheng Xinhao couldn't help but feel fortunate that Sheng Zerui had been found out and arrested.

Therefore, Sheng Xinhao's feelings at this moment were complicated.

Sheng Xinhao comforted Fang Wanrong for a while before returning to his room.

Fang Wanrong was left alone in the living room, silently shedding tears.

At this moment, Fang Manping, having learned the news, rushed back.

"Mom, why are you sitting on the floor and crying?"

"Mom, I heard some news, about my younger brother, my younger brother he..."

Upon seeing her daughter, Fang Wanrong completely broke down in tears. "Aping, your brother has been arrested. They say Arui is from R country, and your real brother is dead..."

Fang Wanrong leaned on her daughter's shoulder and sobbed.

Fang Manping never expected that the news she heard was actually true.

Her feelings were extremely complicated.

To be honest, Fang Manping and her younger brother Sheng Zerui were not close, but they were not estranged either.

Perhaps it was because Sheng Zerui, although still a child, was rather spoiled and looked down on Fang Manping.

Fang Manping dislikes being close to her younger brother, yet she is constantly persuaded by her mother.
