Nan Yuan was one of the members on the list of those who rebelled within the palace clan back then.
The Nan family and the Gong family had a close relationship for hundreds of years. When Nan Yuan, the eldest son of the Nan family, suddenly betrayed them, the Gong family, who were completely unprepared for the betrayal, paid a heavy price.
Later, the Gong clan revived and issued a global arrest warrant for Nan Yuan, who had disappeared without a trace.
The man in the black T-shirt who broke into Gong Ning's room that night was found to be one of Nan Wei's men. Since his identity was so easily discovered, Gong Qiaoyu became wary and continued to investigate along the clues, eventually finding his way to Nan Yuan's first wife, Shen Rongzhi.
Coincidentally, Shen Rongzhi and Lu Weixi were both diagnosed with pregnancy within days of each other. But strangely, after giving birth, Shen Rongzhi left behind a signed divorce agreement and took the infant Shen Yuchen away, and there has been no news of her since.
Lu Weixi stroked the photo in her hand a few times. "Where is Shen Rongzhi now?"
He died of illness many years ago.
"Have you found Nan Yuan?"
"We have a general area of activity, but we can't determine the exact location yet."
She suddenly clenched the photo in her hand. "I want to do a paternity test with that girl named Shen Yuchen..."
Upon hearing her words, Gong Qiaoyu was stunned, feeling as if his brain couldn't quite process what she was saying.
After a long pause, he took a deep breath and said, "I'll contact her."
"Um."
After Gong Qiaoyu left, Lu Weixi sat on the sofa with her eyes glazed over, remaining silent for a long time.
Could Shen Yuchen be her daughter?
The moment the thought entered her mind, it immediately took over her entire being, leaving her somewhat disoriented.
Shen Yuchen looked so much like her when she was young that she could quickly connect the dots and wonder if she and that little girl were really related by blood.
"Honey, what do you think is going on?" Lu Weixi rubbed her temples.
Gong Xiaojing, who had been silent all along, looked up at her and said, "What a coincidence. Don't forget how skilled Shen Rongzhi is in medicine. Changing a person's appearance is a piece of cake for her."
Lu Weixi frowned, subconsciously rejecting this guess, "But I felt that the girl was very kind, I can't quite put my finger on why..."
Gong Xiaojing sat up straight, his fingers interlaced in front of him. "Let's make a hypothetical scenario: if Shen Yuchen were your daughter, how did she come to be?"
"What do you mean 'my daughter'? What if she's also your daughter?" Lu Weixi's eyes widened slightly, and she suddenly blurted out, "Hurry up and have someone check if our sperm and eggs, which were frozen in the gene bank, are still there?"
His gaze towards her held a hint of something unspoken, and after a pause, he said, "Um, I'll contact you shortly..."
Seeing the lingering confusion on her face, Gong Xiaojing changed the subject, "Multiple hidden cameras were found in the room where A-Yun used to live. Tomorrow, find an excuse to take A-Yun and Xiang Ru out. Yuexi Garden needs a thorough investigation."
Lu Weixi's eyes darkened slightly, but she didn't ask any more questions. She nodded slightly and said, "There's an auction tomorrow. A-Yun hasn't gone out much since she came back a few days ago. I'll take them both tomorrow."
He smiled, took her hand, and gently kissed it. "Mmm."
Lu Weixi withdrew her hand and glanced at him sideways.
***
Gong Ning ignored why Yuexi Garden was so quiet and went straight upstairs, just missing Gong Qiaoyu who had just come out of the study.
Gong Ning looked at the picture of the phoenix feather sent by Luo Xi, her eyes filled with increasing surprise and astonishment, and her doubts grew stronger.
She looked at it several times that day, and the gift box that Butler Nita brought to Gong Xiangru looked especially like it was made by her master.
She was taught by her master step by step, and her master's carving techniques are almost etched in her mind. She would never be mistaken. This jade carving called Yuanyu is also her master's work.
But my master is from the Guyou Dynasty, so how could his sculptures appear in modern times?
Gong Ning zoomed in on the photo repeatedly. After an unknown amount of time, her tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and she pulled out A-Lin, "A-Lin, did my master once travel to the modern world?"
A-Lin, radiating a listless glow as if he hadn't fully woken up, nodded upon hearing this. "Yes, during that time I was desperately trying to break free from the hypnosis imposed on me by the Great Awakening Royal Family. After my consciousness awakened, I returned to the modern world with all my might. But something went wrong along the way, and I brought even the King back to the modern world with me."
Previously, A-Lin was able to protect the kingdom for the Gu You royal family and was easily manipulated by others because he had been locked in a box that had a hypnotic effect on Yu Ling for many years, and his spiritual consciousness was dazed. Later, Princess Lin Yun's mother awakened his spiritual consciousness, which led to A-Lin breaking through time and space to come to the modern era to find Gong Ning.
Gong Ning was aware of this as well.
She frowned. "But the timing doesn't match up."
Thinking about this, A-Lin felt extremely guilty. "Back then, I wanted to go back directly to your childhood, before the palace clan's rebellion. But the unexpected appearance of the King disrupted my plans, and everything went wrong. He traveled back to your grandmother, Queen Lancelot's, youth, while I returned to the years after the palace clan's destruction."
When the plane carrying Lian Yu crashed, everyone thought he had no chance of survival. However, twenty years later, he reappeared in the public eye as the president of the World Literature Association.
By then, Gong Ning had been born for a year, and Queen Lancelot had already been crowned queen. Under pressure from her family, she accepted a political marriage, married, and had children. Later, her husband died young, and Lu Weixi was born. She placed almost all her hopes and expectations on Lu Weixi, giving her the highest honors, bestowing upon her the title of Princess Yudie, and making her the heir to the throne.
Lovers who were originally in love missed each other in their prime, only to meet again when everything had settled down. Fate is cruel.
