CEO, You Look Like My Daddy

Because Sha Zhi had already found out the truth...    

Unlike Tali Linna's hotel room, her room in the base was locked all year round. Other than herself, no one else could go in or out.    

In order to keep it a secret, the password locks in her room were very complicated. More importantly...    

Tali Linna actually did not let Sha Zhi participate in the security system of this lock at all.    

Although this lock had been there before Sha Zhi came, but after a few repairs, logically speaking with Sha Zhi's ability, Tali Linna should let her participate.    

But not once.    

Sha Zhi knew that if she wanted to know the truth, then Tali Linna's room was the place she had to go in.    

She could not hesitate because Tali Linna was already on the way back and there was not much time left for her.    

It was not difficult for Sha Zhi to unlock the system lock but she needed some time.    

She stayed up all night and did not sleep for more than 20 hours. Finally, the day before Tali Linna came back, she opened the door to Tali Linna's room.    

At 5: 30 in the morning, after Sha Zhi blocked all the surveillance cameras, she opened the door to Tali Linna's room.    

Her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out. Her palms were full of sweat.    

Somehow, she seemed to have a premonition that as long as she walked in here, her life would change.    

Sha Zhi swallowed her saliva and took a deep breath as she pushed open the door and walked in.    

Tali Linna's room was incomparably luxurious, with the most luxurious decorations and decorations.    

It was like a castle built from gold and silver, and also like... using such extravagance to cover up the emptiness in her heart.    

Sha Zhi carefully locked the door behind her and looked at the room blankly.    

Although she walked in, she did not know where to get angry.    

After being stunned for a while, Sha Zhi slowly walked over to her right side.    

The reason why she walked to the right first was because Sha Zhi saw something familiar on the counter on the right side - a photo frame.    

Tali Linna did not take pictures and Sha Zhi had never seen her take pictures before.    

But in this room, there was a photo frame. Wasn't this very strange?    

Sha Zhi walked to the counter and held the picture frame in her hand. But when she saw the front of the picture frame, she was stunned.    

There was actually nothing on it. It was just a blank picture frame without a picture.    

"Why is it empty?" Sha Zhi muttered to herself.    

Like Jian Yi, she carefully observed the photo frame from left to right and did not miss a single clue.    

Unfortunately, this empty photo frame was different from the one in her room. There was no mark or pattern on it and Sha Zhi could not get any clues based on this.    

Just as she was about to put the photo frame back to its original position, Sha Zhi accidentally knocked on the corner of the counter with her hand that was holding the photo frame.    

"Pata ~" A crisp sound rang out in the silent room.    

Sha Zhi's heart tightened. If the photo frame was broken, it would be terrible if Tali Linna found something strange.    

She hurriedly picked up the photo frame to check if it was damaged.    

But when she picked it up, she found that something was wrong.    

The originally tightly sealed photo frame actually loosened a little.    

"Oh no, it can't really be broken, right?" Sha Zhi secretly cried out miserably and hurriedly used her fingers to dig at the sealed photo frame to see if she could close it again.    

However, when she used her hands to touch it, Sha Zhi discovered that something was wrong.    

The loosening was not a loosening that was broken but rather the size of the photo frame itself was not suitable. It was as if someone had forcefully pressed it onto it.    

Sha Zhi paused for a moment and slowly fumbled around the edge of the frame. Then, following the loosening of the frame, she carefully removed the top layer of glass from the top layer of the frame.    

After the glass was removed, there was actually a layer of glass underneath. That was the transparent cover that the frame originally had.    

And the glass cover on the back seemed to be specially made and completely covered the true appearance of the inside.    

Originally, no one would be able to discover it. If Sha Zhi did not accidentally knock on the mechanism.    

Sha Zhi placed the glass cover on the counter and looked at the photo frame. But when she saw the real face of the photo frame, she froze there.    

The photo frame was stained with blood!    

There was still no photo. It was just that there were many bloody fingerprints on the wooden board behind the glass cover. Every one of them was different.    

Sha Zhi could not count how many fingerprints there were because there were too many.    

There were densely-packed and different sizes and depths. Some really had no place to press and were stacked on the old fingerprints.    

Sha Zhi was shocked by the red color and her legs went soft. She took two steps back and almost fell to the ground.    

At the innermost side of the photo frame, there were two scale lines.    

Those two scale lines were messy and messy. They looked like the original shape of the photo frame. If one did not look carefully, one would not notice them at all. So Sha Zhi did not notice it all along.    

Now that she saw the blood fingerprints and looked at the scale lines, Sha Zhi suddenly had a guess in her heart.    

Those scale lines... could it be the number of blood fingerprints!    

If a fingerprint and scale represented a person's life, then there were at least a hundred recorded on the frame.    

Thinking of this, Sha Zhi was so frightened that she threw away the photo frame in her hand. She staggered and fell to the ground.    

Although she did not participate in Tali Linna's personal missions, she was not so naive as to not know what they were doing.    

In this photo frame, there might be over a hundred lives imprisoned.    

Sha Zhi was so scared that her eyes turned red. She was just a little girl. Although she was gifted in computer science, she did not have the courage like Jian Yi. Seeing this suddenly was enough to scare her to death.    

How about... forget it?    

This thought flashed across Sha Zhi's mind, making her want to retreat.    

She was so scared that her hands were trembling. Her legs kept stepping back and subconsciously wanted to leave this room.    

But for some reason, the moment she retreated, Jian Yi's figure flashed across her mind. It was like a clap of thunder, causing Sha Zhi to freeze on the spot and not be able to take another step back.    

If she didn't know Jian Yi, Sha Zhi might have run away just like that. She would never dare to enter this room again, nor would she dare to investigate those terrifying things.    

But it was destined that the heavens would let her know Jian Yi. The Jian Yi who was one year younger than her.    

Sha Zhi knew how much energy and courage Jian Yi had put into every step he took, from entering deep into the enemy's camp to carefully surviving.    

He did not even care about surviving. Before he left, he even left the direction of the search for her.    

Jian Yi's courage and rationality made Sha Zhi feel inferior to him, and also made her unable to move at this moment.    

With an example in front of her, how could she easily give up? Could it be that her desire for the truth was only this little?    

Sha Zhi somewhat looked down on herself. She reached out to wipe away her tears and as she softly sobbed in fear, she shakily stood up and once again walked to the front of the counter. Her trembling hands picked up the photo frame again.    

If there were really hundreds of names on it, if what Jian Yi said was true.    

Then there might be her family in the photo frame.    

She couldn't give up. Even if it was for the sake of those forgotten lives, she couldn't just run away and do nothing.    

Sha Zhi clenched her fists. This was the first time in her life that she felt a strong sense of courage from the bottom of her heart.    

"If you are not my mother, then at least I need to know. Where did my own mother go?" Sha Zhi bit her lips and gave a silent tribute to the photo frame for a minute. She then solemnly put it back on the counter.    

She walked around to Tali Linna's bed again.    

Other than the beautiful decorations, there was nothing valuable in Tali Linna's room.    

The furnishings were the latest. Tali Linna did not like the taste of her things having history. Every once in a while, she would change into a new set of furnishings.    

Sha Zhi walked to the pillow and gently touched the blanket.    

Other family's children had slept with their parents before, but in her memory, it was a blank.    

In the past, she wanted so much to be hugged by her mother, listen to her gentle voice, and tell fairy tales.    

But that kind of warm scene, Tali Linna had never given it to her.    

In her blank childhood, what exactly happened?    

Sha Zhi frowned and her gaze slid down the blanket again. Suddenly, an unfamiliar and distant memory flashed past.    

In the warm room, a girl whose face could not be seen was lying on the bed with a little girl in her arms. She softly hummed a tune and patted the little girl's back, patiently coaxing her to sleep.    

That scene only flashed by for a moment but it made Sha Zhi's tears flow out.    

Without any reason, she felt that the little girl in the scene was her.    

And the woman who was hugging her was her mother.    

"Mother..."    

Sha Zhi cried. Although the scene just now was very blurry and she could not see the appearance of the woman, based on the feeling in her heart, she knew that it was not Tali Linna.    

Tali Linna really was not her mother.    

Sha Zhi took a long time to calm down.    

She could not waste her time on crying and regretting. That would not help at all.    

Sha Zhi took a deep breath and walked around the bed to the other side.    

On the other side of the bed was a large wardrobe.    

Sha Zhi opened the wardrobe door and saw Tali Linna's clothes inside.    

There were all kinds of styles and almost all of them were brand new. But Sha Zhi did not see Tali Linna wear much.    

Sha Zhi did not understand these clothes and did not intend to look more. Just as she wanted to close the cabinet, she found some clothes that did not match the overall style of the wardrobe on the left side.    

Those were her clothes...    

Sha Zhi looked at the folded dresses in a daze. Those were all prepared for her by Tali Linna.    

Tali Linna rarely personally bought clothes for her. She thought that Tali Linna did not care about her at all.    

But she did not think that she would actually see her own clothes here.    

Sha Zhi's expression was complicated. She stretched out her hand to touch the outermost dress but her hand reached into the air. After hesitating for a moment, she pulled it back.    

There were many things that once the cover of the truth was lifted, it could not be closed again.    

She could no longer pretend that she did not know anything and could no longer treat Tali Linna as her mother.
