Chapter 1339 Do you know who killed him?
The man was silent for a moment, then said, "Haven't you been trying to find out the truth about your parents?"
“……!”
Nan Yan was shocked.
She stared at the figure on the screen with wide eyes and asked in surprise, "You, how did you know?"
You know, although she was investigating this matter, she did not send people to search for clues on a large scale. After all, for her, apart from the letter left by her adoptive father Si Zhongwen confirming that she was not his daughter, there was no other clue at all.
She just happened to get some information, pieced it together herself, and gradually got closer to the truth.
She didn't even tell Zhu Feng about this, and Ran Xiaoyu, who was closest to her, didn't know about it. How could this person know?
Could it be that he has the ability to read minds?
Thinking of this, Nan Yan's face became alert. She looked across nervously, but she saw the figure speaking calmly to her, "You don't have to be afraid. I'm not a ghost, and I can't see what's going on in your mind."
Nan Yan whispered, "Then how did you know?"
“…”
The other party was silent for a moment, but did not answer her question. Instead, he said, "Well, did you find out anything?"
“…”
Nan Yan was also silent.
This matter was originally a secret hidden in the deepest part of her heart. She didn't even tell Zhu Feng, so how could she tell it to someone who couldn't even tell who was a friend or foe?
She looked at the figure on the screen and said cautiously, "Since you know everything, then don't you know what I found out?"
The other party smiled and said, "Don't think so highly of me. If I had such divine power, I wouldn't have—"
At first?
Hearing these two words, Nan Yan suddenly raised her head.
You know, if you want to understand someone, besides understanding the person in front of you, the most important thing is to understand their past, because past experiences are the most important part of shaping a person. Just like between her and Zhu Feng, no matter how close they were, there was always something between them.
Because she didn't know about Zhu Feng's past.
Of course, even he himself doesn't know.
Nan Yan had no idea about this mysterious man in front of her. He was always elusive in her presence, which made Nan Yan completely at a disadvantage no matter whether the two of them were interacting or talking.
But now, he suddenly talked about "the beginning".
If a person talks about his past, it is possible for others to understand it.
Nan Yan's breath was choked, but the other party seemed to come to his senses. There was a hint of a smile in his voice as he said, "Nothing."
“…”
Nan Yan's brows furrowed even tighter.
This guy is obviously hiding something.
Nan Yan stared at the figure reflected on the screen with a burning gaze, and said in a subtle tone, "Why? There's nothing that can't be told to others. Is there anything in your past that you can't tell others?"
“…”
The other party was silent for a moment, as if he could sense her probing gaze, and said lightly: "There is nothing that cannot be told to others, but my past has nothing to do with you. There is no point in pursuing it now."
“…”
Nan Yan's mind became even more depressed.
What he said was not "it has nothing to do with it", but "it's not that big of a deal". In other words, his past was somewhat related to him, but it was not helpful to what he was going to do now, so he was unwilling to talk about it.
This person's identity is becoming more and more mysterious!
Nan Yan racked her brains but could not think of anyone who was involved with her. Who had such an identity and such courage, and was secretly manipulating many forces and the court to oppose Zhu Feng?
If he doesn't tell me, maybe I will never know.
The two of them were silent, and it seemed like they were confronting each other for a long time. Finally, Nan Yan sighed lightly.
She said, "Okay, tell me what you want to say."
The other party then let out a sigh, as if relieved.
He said, "So, what did you find out about your parents?"
Nan Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "My father should be my nominal uncle, the former Marquis of Bowang, Si Boyan."
Having said this, she stopped and looked at the other person.
It seems like he is waiting for the other party's reaction.
Although this mysterious master did not reveal any knowledge of her life experience, Nan Yan clearly felt from his tone just now that he knew something, and these things he knew were his capital to negotiate with her, or even to make conditions to her.
Sure enough, the other party nodded slightly.
Nan Yan said: "Indeed it is."
"Um."
"So, you really know my background?"
The other party chuckled. "It's already this late. Even if I say I don't know, you won't believe me."
Nan Yan asked anxiously: "Then, what else do you know?"
The mysterious man said, "So, what did you find out?"
At this moment, although she knew she shouldn't reveal everything, Nan Yan was so eager to know his life story that she gritted her teeth and said, "I, I only know that he has been wandering around for decades. There has been no news of him. His family has set up a memorial tablet for him, but it is covered with black veil, so his life or death is unknown."
His life or death is unknown.
Hearing these four words, the mysterious man opposite sneered and repeated word by word: "Life or death unknown?"
His tone was playful and sarcastic.
It seems that these four words have special meaning to him.
Nan Yan immediately said, "Why, isn't it?"
The other party took a deep breath and said, "Now I can tell you what this great gift I want to give you is."
Nan Yan suddenly became a little nervous.
She opened her eyes wide and stared at the shadow on the screen without blinking.
"What is it?"
The other party said word by word: "Your father is not dead or alive."
“…”
"He's already dead!"
In an instant, Nan Yan felt a burst of thunder exploding in her mind, and suddenly, her whole body went blank.
Dead?
His own father, Si Boyan, Marquis of Bowang, had already died? !
She trembled a little, her whole body felt empty, as if she was numb and had no feeling. She said in a hoarse voice, "How could it be?"
I have been an orphan since I was little. Although I was born into a large family, I have never experienced the joy of family. After finally learning about my life story, I thought I could find a way to find my parents, but who knew -
Dead?
I have been searching for my father for so long, wanting to be reunited with my family, but is he really dead?
Nan Yan's eyes suddenly turned red, and hot tears slowly welled up, blurring her vision.
She choked and said, "How can I..."
The other party continued: "Then do you know who killed him?"
