When An Feng opened the sealed document bag, she had a complicated feeling.
She hoped that Nan Zhi was Helian Xiao’s daughter so that she could have a good background and be worthy of Sihan. And when she married into the Royal family, she would not be talked about by people and had a father with a deep background to rely on.
But from her position, she did not want Helian Xiao to be that person.
Flipping to the final results, An Feng was both disappointed and happy when she saw that they were not related by blood.
But the results from the neighboring city were not out yet. Perhaps there was still a 50% possibility…
Even now, she had a niggling feeling that the fire in the private restaurant that night was related to this matter. After returning to the Capital, that feeling had become even stronger.
An Feng put the document into her bag and prepared to leave. When she came to the elevator, a middle-aged woman walked hurriedly over suddenly and knocked into her.
The bag in An Feng’s hand dropped to the ground.
“I’m sorry…” The middle-aged woman saw that An Feng dropped something and quickly bent down to pick up the things that had spilled out from the bag.
Although An Feng’s elbow hurt from being knocked into, when she saw that the woman’s attitude was good and did not seem like it was on purpose, she took the bag the woman handed over and replied, “It’s all right.”
An Feng took a taxi back to the Crown Palace after coming out from the paternity testing center.
Along the way, her phone rang.
Seeing that it was an unknown number, An Feng’s heart tightened. She still had that gold-stamped business card in her bag and she had memorized the number on it after looking at it once.
Helian Xiao must have asked Feng Yao for her number!
In her daze, she didn’t pick up the call, and the ringing stopped and was hung up automatically.
…
In the Crown Palace.
Helian Xiao called An Feng but she did not answer, and he called Nan Zhi next. When Nan Zhi learned that he had come and thinking of that night of the fire he had taken them to stay at the hotel, she suggested to treat him for a meal.
After the call with Helian Xiao, Nan Zhi sent a message to Mu Sihan.
Very soon, Mu Sihan called. “I should be the one treating, not you. I’ll come with you later.”
Nan Zhi found the whole situation amusing. “When you see him later, don’t look like you’ve seen your love rival. Our age gap is so big. Honestly, trust you to come up with something like that.”
Mu Sihan snorted. “He usually attends to hundreds of important matters every day and he always sends Helian Zhu or his assistant over, even when he invested here.”
Nan Zhi heard Mu Sihan’s words and felt slightly strange. They had only just met the other day in the town, and he came to the Capital so quickly.
And it was a private trip. He did not contact Mu Sihan and contacted her and her mother directly. It was true that it was somewhat strange.
“He might have some other motives,” Nan Zhi said thoughtfully.
“You. Admitted. To. It?”
Even through the phone, Nan Zhi could feel the cold aura emanating out from the man. She shivered. “What did I admit?”
“That he has motives for you!”
Nan Zhi laughed. “Why do you only think of me? I admit that he has some motives, but could it only be for me?”
The man on the other end of the line was silent for a few seconds before he spoke hesitantly, “Does he have motives towards your mother?”
Nan Zhi thought about it and there was only this possibility. Besides, thinking carefully, not only was Mr Helian behaving abnormally, her mother was also a little strange!
Everytime she mentioned Mr Helian, her mother was reluctant to talk more or changed the topic. Usually, if her mother disliked a person, she would not be so straightforward!
Nan Zhi ended the call with Mu Sihan, got up and went to the bedroom to change.
She had just arrived at the stairs when she suddenly heard the clicking of heels. She turned and her expression changed when she saw the person who had come in.
