"You flatter me. You are indeed very well hidden, and I am indeed passive. I can only wait for you to make your move before I have a chance."

As he spoke, a cigarette appeared between Zhan Jingting's fingers.

The bodyguard immediately lit a fire for him.

Zhan Jingting took a puff, glanced at the man opposite him, and asked, "Want one?"

The man didn't refuse, "Okay."

The bodyguard unfastened the chain on his right hand and lit a cigarette for him.

"He Songling, a good name." The smoke obscured Zhan Jingting's handsome face. "You were abandoned by your biological parents when you were young, so this name probably wasn't given to you by them."

The man exhaled a smoke ring and said with a faint smile, "When I was born, I was diagnosed with several congenital diseases and needed to undergo several surgeries. But the doctor said that even if I had the surgeries, I wouldn't live past ten years old."

“The surgery would cost a lot of money, almost all of the family’s savings. They felt that it was not worth it to use their savings to keep me alive until I was ten years old, and that it would be better to have another child. So, in the dead of night, they threw me into the trash can and left me to fend for myself.”

"I was lucky; I was thrown into a trash can near the orphanage. The orphanage staff found me the next morning and rushed me to the hospital. I was saved."

"When the orphanage learned about my situation, out of humanitarian spirit, it was impossible for them to abandon me. Fortunately, there were many donors at this orphanage, and they quickly raised the money for my medical expenses and surgery."

"Later, medical conditions improved rapidly, and I was lucky enough to meet a doctor with good medical skills. After his treatment and conditioning, I actually escaped the fate of not living past ten years old and had a normal life."

The man threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out, then continued, "My biological parents don't have the surname He. I took the surname of the orphanage caregiver who found me. The name Songling means that they hope I will live a long and peaceful life."

Zhan Jingting smiled and said, "The kind of thing that involves abandoning a sick child is something most people would try to hide, and it's impossible for it to be publicized to everyone. Yet you know so much about it. You must have done a lot of research after you grew up."

"So it seems that the car accident five years ago that killed their entire family was also something you meticulously orchestrated..."
