What The Cost of Delayed Affection is about

She found her parents Xia Jiang and Lin Wan doted heavily on their adopted daughter Xia Qing, yet treated her with utter coldness and indifference. After her body was found, Lin Wan, a forensic doctor, and Xia Jiang, police bureau chief, joined the investigation.
