Because of this, Ji Yan stayed awake all night. Lu Anning, who was in Bixi Bay, also didn't sleep well. Something was on her mind, making her toss and turn, and she had a hard time getting into work the next day.
It was not until the afternoon that the Gu family's car appeared at the bottom of the company building on time. The moment Lu Anning received the call, he finally regained his original mental state.
After hanging up the phone, she took a deep breath, took her bag and went downstairs.
The feeling of being kept hanging was terrible. She felt like her heart was being swept by a cat's tail, and she was anxious and wanted to know the answer immediately.
Gu Zhiwei leaned back in the car with his eyes closed. When he heard approaching footsteps, he slowly raised his eyes.
"Didn't sleep well?"
Gu Zhiwei had a sharp eye and saw the bruises on Lu Anning's face that could not be covered up under her makeup, as if he had expected this scene.
Lu Anning bent down and got into the car, and replied casually: "It's okay."
She had no intention of hiding anything from her father, but seeing that he didn't seem to care, she felt a little curious. She thought that after she left last night, Ji Yan and Gu Zhiwei would have a fight.
"From your looks, you slept well last night."
Gu Zhiwei curled his lips and said, "As the head of a family, I've seen a lot of ups and downs. This little thing won't affect me. It's just that you discovered it a little earlier than I expected. Let's go! I'll take you to see the truth now."
The car was driving on the road, heading towards the suburbs. Lu Anning frowned, and all kinds of possibilities emerged in her mind.
The most outrageous thing was that Gu Zhiwei had raised their biological mother in another place right under Ji Yan's nose. The "captive love" game that rich people like to play was not impossible for his father to happen.
In your circle, many couples who are considered loving and affectionate in the eyes of others have already separated behind the scenes and are doing their own things.
She just felt that Ji Yan was not the kind of person who would turn a blind eye.
However, the car did not drive to the upscale residential area in the suburbs as she had imagined, but ended up stopping at the gate of the cemetery.
Lu Anning watched Gu Zhiwei get out of the car, his eyes fixed on the cemetery not far away, and he did not move for a long time.
"Why don't you get off the bus?"
Lu Anning came back to his senses and looked at Gu Zhiwei with a complicated expression. After a while, he slowly got out of the car.
Gu Zhiwei led the way, holding flowers in his hands, while Lu Anning followed behind woodenly, unable to express her feelings at the moment. When they reached the top of the mountain, Gu Zhiwei stopped in front of a tombstone and placed the flowers there himself.
Lu An Ning stared at his movements closely, not daring to move forward rashly.
After doing all this, Gu Zhiwei turned around and looked at her: "Don't you want to know the truth? Why don't you come and take a look!"
Lu An Ning vaguely guessed the answer and took a step hesitantly.
Only a few steps away, she had already seen the photo on the tombstone clearly, and she froze in place.
The woman on the tombstone has a face that is 70% similar to mine!
Lu Anning staggered back, her face filled with shock. She had been somewhat expectant along the way, even though countless possibilities flashed through her mind. She had never imagined that the person her father had brought her to see would have already turned to dust.
"Dad, what are you doing..."
"Don't you want to know the answer? What you see before you is the answer you want."
"You mean, the woman on the tombstone..."
"You should call her 'Mom'."
Gu Zhiwei turned his head and looked at Lu Anning calmly: "Don't you want to know who your biological mother is? She is your biological mother! You are so smart, you should be able to see that you are very similar."
In fact, when Gu Zhiwei first met Lu Anning, he already had all sorts of suspicions in his mind, but he was unwilling to admit it.
Because he knew very well that if he returned to the Gu family with such a face, the Gu family would definitely not have peace in the future.
Upon learning that she had married the Third Master of the Tang Family and was being doted on, Gu Zhiwei did not want to disrupt this peaceful relationship. However, who knew that some fates were destined and could not be avoided.
He, like Ji Yan, likes to deceive himself. Gu Zhiwei doesn't want to find out the truth, he just wants to buy peace for the Gu family. In the end, he was wrong. People have come to the capital, some things can't be hidden.
Lu Anning looked carefully at the photo on the tombstone and couldn't help laughing.
She squatted in front of the tombstone, feeling mixed emotions. Of all the words she wanted to say, only one remained.
"So, you've known for a long time that I'm your daughter. You knew it from the first moment you saw me, right?"
Gu Zhiwei took a deep breath and said, "Your face is very recognizable. I did guess it, but I don't want to verify it."
Lu An Ning suddenly clenched his fists. He knew it all, but he had allowed Ji Yan and Lu Yunxi to do what they had done before, causing so much trouble. Now that it was exposed, they pretended to be ignorant. It was really disgusting.
"Why?"
Lu Anning stood up suddenly and demanded loudly, "You knew Lu Yunxi was fake, yet you allowed her to use my identity to deceive me. You even defended her in front of me, even at the cost of putting me in harm's way. I can't blame my brothers for not knowing the truth. But what about you? You knew it all along, yet you allowed Ji Yan and Lu Yunxi to do all this."
Gu Zhiwei took a deep breath and faced Lu Anning's questioning without any remorse.
"I'm the head of the family, so I can't be too one-sided. You're already capable of protecting yourself in the Tang family. If I expose you, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar, which will have a huge impact on the Gu family. Being in a high position, I have to consider the overall situation."
Lu Anning smiled sarcastically. In the eyes of those in power, are family interests really above everything else?
How could her mother fall in love with such a man and even give birth to five children for him, who still have no name or status?
It took her a while to calm herself down. "Tell me! I want to know everything about my mother. Don't hide anything in front of her tombstone."
