Scum Gong Walks the Career Line in the Crematorium

TL: Moonlit

Unlike Zhou Yuntang, who has been facing difficulties everywhere, these days have been the most pleasant for Lin Hanchuan.

Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan treat him like their own child, and whenever Wan Li Shuang has something, he always shares it with Lin Hanchuan. When they leave for school at six in the morning, Mrs. Wan is already awake and personally hands them their school bags. When they return home late after evening self-study, Mr. Wan has already prepared a nutritious and healthy supper in the kitchen.

When Lin Hanchuan encounters problems he doesn’t understand, he seeks advice from Mr. Wan, who patiently explains everything without ever getting tired.

Although he is mentally around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, Lin Hanchuan can’t help but be moved by Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan’s attentive care.

In his mind, agent 001 has exclaimed countless times: [Chuanchuan, you’ve finally encountered a pair of reliable parents!]

Lin Hanchuan chuckled softly.

During this time, agent 001 hasn’t been idle either. At Lin Hanchuan’s request, it has been navigating the internet, controlling the direction of public opinion, and monitoring information about everyone in the Zhou family.

When it learned that Wan Li Shuang was furious after seeing things on the internet, secretly sending messages to the Zhou family brothers, and stirring up emotions, Lin Hanchuan chose to overlook it. He found it somewhat amusing, and there was a different taste in his heart.

[Thanks to your reminder, Mrs. Wan has avoided the traps set by the Zhou family.] Agent 001 diligently reported to Lin Hanchuan, [She even set up a trap for the Zhou family in return, and so far, Zhou Gao Dan hasn’t noticed anything amiss.]

Lin Hanchuan’s eyes lit up: [If they discover something strange, make sure to erase the traces for Aunt Wan.]

[Mr. Wan is investigating information about you, and he has already found that nurse.] Agent 001 continued its report.

After spending so much time with Lin Hanchuan, agent 001 has transformed from a system that only wanted to complete its tasks to one that follows Lin Hanchuan’s every word, just like a wild system with flesh to eat.

Technically, a system shouldn’t have emotions, but Agent 001’s emotions are so nuanced and rich that it’s almost unbelievable. Sometimes, its emotional display is so impressive that even the real human Lin Hanchuan is amazed.

After witnessing the series of actions taken by the Zhou family, Agent 001 completely abandoned any thought of completing its task; it only wanted those who bullied its host to die quickly.

[No need to rush.] Lin Hanchuan said calmly, [You don’t have to worry about this matter anymore; Uncle Meng will figure it out.]

Lin Hanchuan has always been someone who seeks revenge for wrongs done to him. He retaliated against Zhou Zhengqing because of the false accusations led by his entertainment industry fame. Similarly, when he discovered that Jiang Luo, Jiang Tian’s adoptive father, might not have accidentally mistaken him, and that there might be a conspiracy involved, he wouldn’t hesitate to act.

However, currently, they are still in their third year of high school, and Lin Hanchuan plans to investigate more thoroughly after the college entrance examination. Unexpectedly, Mr. Wan took action for him.

Lin Hanchuan doesn’t mind Mr. Wan’s involvement; he is only concerned that Jiang Luo, the despicable father, might ruin Jiang Tian’s life. If he reports to the authorities casually, the most he might get charged with is child trafficking or child abandonment, and he might not even be sentenced to ten years.

While he was contemplating, Wan Li Shuang had finished his homework. He neatly spread out his assignments and looked at Lin Hanchuan, trembling with fear.

Interrupted with his conversation with Agent 001, Lin Hanchuan carefully checked Wan Li Shuang’s homework. After finishing, he generously praised, “Excellent.”

Wan Li Shuang let out a long sigh of relief and smiled, “That’s great.”

Since deciding to get into B University, Wan Li Shuang has put in unimaginable efforts. He attentively listens in class, practices exercises after class, and even stays up until one or two in the morning doing assignments until Lin Hanchuan urges him to sleep.

Lin Hanchuan couldn’t understand why this child suddenly became so disciplined and self-aware.

“I can’t understand anything about the things you discuss with Dad every day,” not aware of Lin Hanchuan’s doubts, Wan Li Shuang changed to another assignment and casually said, “I don’t even know if I’m his child or you are. Whenever he sees you, he smiles like a flower, and his eye wrinkles could probably kill a fly.”

“That’s not within the scope of high school curriculum; naturally, you wouldn’t understand,” Lin Hanchuan glanced at the cover of his extracurricular book and chuckled, “If you want to understand, you can major in this too…”

“Flight Control Tolerance System.” Wan Li Shuang smiled slightly but firmly declined, “No, thanks.”

Outside the room, Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan looked at the two boys in a harmonious atmosphere. They exchanged a glance and didn’t disturb the boys’ studying, quietly leaving.

On their way back to their room, Mr. Wan sighed, “Do you think we should tell him the truth?”

To let him know that it wasn’t an accidental mix-up, but someone with ill intentions deliberately exchanged two newborn babies, completely altering their destinies.

Originally meant to be ordinary and unremarkable, one was elevated to the clouds, while the other, who should have shone brightly, was cast into the abyss.

This kind of disparity would be difficult for anyone to accept, let alone a seventeen-year-old. Even an adult would likely have a mental breakdown upon suddenly discovering such facts.

“How about we discuss it after the college entrance exam?” Mrs. Wan also chimed in. In these few days, she has grown to like that child more and more. He’s intelligent, hardworking, and even motivates her own less ambitious child to work harder. Such a child, apart from the blind members of the Zhou family, who wouldn’t like him?

Mr. Wan frowned deeply, “To let that bastard continue to roam freely outside the law for another year, and to let that fake young master be pampered for another year…” He couldn’t swallow this anger.

If Lin Hanchuan were here, he would know that despite their differences, Wan Li Shuang is indeed their child, influenced by them as he grew up. Though their personalities may differ slightly, they both have a strong sense of protecting their loved ones and avenging evil.

“Let’s wait a little longer,” Mrs. Wan also felt unhappy, “Let’s probe first. He has a stable temperament, and if he can endure, we won’t have to hold back anymore.”

So, in the following days, Lin Hanchuan often noticed the strange looks from Wan’s parents, especially from Mr. Wan, whose gaze carried a mix of pity, anger, and an unspoken desire to say something.

However, Lin Hanchuan remained unfazed; he has faced much bigger storms in his life, so a few glances with no ill intentions were nothing to him.

It wasn’t until Mr. Wan approached him gently to test the waters that Lin Hanchuan understood their intentions.

“I already had a premonition,” Lin Hanchuan looked at Mr. Wan and said calmly.

Avoiding his wife and son, Mr. Wan tried to gauge Lin Hanchuan alone. He didn’t expect to receive such an answer.

Facing Mr. Wan’s complex and difficult-to-read eyes, Lin Hanchuan’s tone remained steady, “He treated me so badly that I suspected from a young age that I wasn’t his biological child. Knowing the truth only confirmed my suspicions.”

No matter how terrible the parents are, they usually show some degree of warmth to their children. Even the most horrible parents would display subtle traces of affection when interacting with their children. However, in Jiang Luo’s case, he had never shown any warmth towards Jiang Tian.

He treated Jiang Tian like an enemy. Sometimes, merely catching a glimpse of the young Jiang Tian would lead to physical abuse.

If Jiang Luo wasn’t afraid of going to jail for murder, he probably would have killed Jiang Tian long ago.

Hearing Lin Hanchuan talk about all this, Mr. Wan’s anger intensified. To avoid alarming the child, he maintained a smile, but his eyes lacked their usual wrinkles, “Rest assured, Uncle will get back all the harm you’ve suffered, bit by bit.”

Lin Hanchuan remained silent for a few seconds before quietly expressing his thanks, without refusing.

After Lin Hanchuan left, Mr. Wan’s anger still lingered, “That scum!”

Mrs. Wan had already reported to the police and comfortingly kissed Mr. Wan’s face, “Don’t worry, he will pay for it in prison.”

After receiving the police report, they split into two teams, one went to the retired nurse’s home who had switched the babies, and the other directly to the Jiang family’s house.

The nurse’s home had no idea what was happening, and the retired nurse was taken away. Her spouse was clueless, continuously asking what had happened. However, the team trying to arrest Jiang Luo returned empty-handed.

After Lin Hanchuan defeated Jiang Luo and left, Jiang Luo had a vague premonition.

He worried about the truth being exposed. After the revelation of the real and fake young masters, he immediately packed his things and fled to the countryside. However, he discovered that no one actually knew that he intentionally switched the two children.

Feeling relieved, Jiang Luo returned home but dared not continue his drinking habits. He lived a relatively honest life for a while. However, he never let his guard down. Today, he had a vague sense of foreboding when he noticed suspicious glances from people nearby. Having lived in the dark alleys for a long time, Jiang Luo quickly activated his radar and escaped without hesitation.

His escape eventually revealed the truth. The police later released the case information online and issued a reward for the fugitive. Under the guidance of Wan’s parents, this news triggered an explosion on the internet.

⌈I thought it was just a melodramatic plot, but it turned out to be a suspenseful crime drama.⌋

⌈Oh my God, if it’s really an intentional switch, the real young master is so miserable. He was born into wealth and glory but was pushed into the mud, and someone deliberately dragged him down. If his character and qualities were slightly worse, he wouldn’t have grown into the person he is now.⌋

⌈I have a terrifying thought. Could this scum have known about the excellent genes in the Zhou family and was afraid of exposing the real young master? So, he suppressed the real young master from a young age. Who knew that the real young master would be so resilient and grow into such a determined and upright person?⌋

⌈@Zhou Zhengqing, @Zhou Yuntang, your little brother was intentionally switched. What do you have to say about this?⌋

⌈@Zhou Yuntang, the blood of criminals runs through your veins. You are so disgusting. No wonder you act so innocent. If you have any conscience left, leave the Zhou family and stop holding onto someone else’s belongings.⌋

⌈The whole Zhou family seems to have some problems. They had a perfectly fine real young master but chose the useless fake young master instead. What on earth were they thinking?⌋

Under constant pressure from netizens, Zhou Zhengqing, as the one standing in front of the public, finally issued a statement one day later, seemingly oblivious to the situation.

Zhou Zhengqing: “Thank you all for your concern. I am fine, and my little brother is fine too. The grudges of our elders have nothing to do with the younger generation. When the incident occurred, Tang Tang was just a baby in swaddling clothes, he knew nothing and is an innocent victim. Please don’t be too harsh on him. Zhou Yuntang will always be the young master of the Zhou family.”
