Chapter 3: Transmigrated as the Father of the Real and Fake Heiresses
The young man next to her looked flustered, so Li Lan couldn't resist grabbing a bottle of mineral water from the counter and handing it over.
"Our signature dishes are all spicy, you might not be used to them."
Assistant Zhou glanced at the girl and said "Thank you".
After turning on the water, hand it to General Manager Ji.
Ji Huaizhi's face turned bright red from the spiciness. After rinsing his mouth, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it.
"I'm sorry, I was rude."
The man's thin lips were pressed tightly together, and the corners of his mouth turned down slightly, giving him an aloof and unapproachable air.
Li Lan was a little embarrassed, waved her hand, and prepared to go back to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, the uncle suddenly called out to her.
A questioning look met the man's deep eyes: "How did you know my name is Li Lan?"
Assistant Zhou pulled out a plastic stool: "Ms. Li, our CEO Ji has something very important to tell you. He'll have to take up a little of your time."
Li Lan fidgeted nervously, her hands clenched: "But I'm still at work."
When Assistant Zhou saw the look in President Ji's eyes, he stood up and went over to talk to the boss's wife.
Ji Huaizhi extended his hand: "Sit down."
After Li Lan and the others sat down, they realized why they had to listen to him.
"You work part-time at night and attend classes during the day. Can you manage to balance your studies?" Ji Huaizhi chatted with her, trying to help her relax.
"It's alright, I've gotten used to it now."
"Are your family members treating you badly?"
Li Lan didn't understand why he was asking her these questions.
However, subconsciously I felt that he wasn't a bad person, and on the contrary, I felt that he was very kind to me.
But she was very wary and didn't want to say anything more after that.
When Assistant Zhou arrived, the father and daughter remained silent. They looked remarkably alike.
"Ms. Li, I've already asked the boss for leave for you." Assistant Zhou handed her a document: "You can take a look at this."
Li Lan blushed at his address: "Just call me Li Lan, don't call me Miss."
She was hesitant to open the document.
Assistant Zhou took it out and handed it to her: "The matter may be a bit complicated, but this investigation result shows that you should be our CEO Ji's child."
"You mean my mother cheated on me and had me with you?" Li Lan asked, her tone incredulous.
The man in front of her probably wouldn't even look at her sharp-tongued and mean-spirited mother, right?
“Ms. Ma Fang was a nanny in the Ji family. She and my wife were pregnant at the same time. However, your biological mother unfortunately died in childbirth after giving birth to you.”
“At that time, I was too heartbroken because I lost my wife, so I entrusted you to the care of the family’s nanny. But I never expected that by the time I had recovered, you would have been replaced by Ma Fang.”
"I just found out all of this. You are not Ma Fang and Li Wanbing's child. You are the daughter of the Ji family, a daughter of the Ji family who should have been pampered and spoiled."
Ji Huaizhi spoke in a cold tone.
But Li Lan still caught a trace of sorrow in his eyes.
"Are you sure?" Li Lan still didn't believe her.
This isn't a TV drama: "No paternity test was done."
"What if you've made a mistake?"
Ji Huaizhi: "No, I knew you were definitely my child the moment I saw you."
Li Lan found his words even funnier: "You look so rich, so why did it take you so long to find me?"
Although she was asking a question in return, there was nervousness in her eyes.
Ji Huaizhi softened his tone: "Because I only just discovered that the person in the Ji family now is not my daughter."
"Sorry I only just found you."
Li Lan felt dizzy when she heard him apologize; it was all too sudden.
Suddenly someone appears and says that your current parents are not your parents, but he is your father.
"What if you misunderstand? We haven't done a paternity test."
“If you’re not comfortable with that, you can have one,” Ji Huaizhi said, seeing her disbelief. “But the moment I saw you, I knew you were definitely my child.”
Looking at his expression, Li Lan felt a surge of grievance welling up inside her: "What if it's not true?"
"Even if that's the case, what about Miss Ji in your family now?"
Ji Huaizhi met her gaze: "Come back with me, and I'll show you."
In her previous life, the original owner had her assistant pick her up after a paternity test.
The two first met at the Ji family's doorstep.
There was absolutely no buffer time given to her at the time.
This time, Ji Huaizhi came to pick her up in person and explained the reason for the matter.
When she arrived at the Ji family's house in the middle of the night, she felt even more uneasy, standing in the magnificent house and realizing that she had acted impulsively.
The family doctor was already waiting at the Ji family's house.
After taking the samples, Ji Huaizhi found her anxious and frightened look amusing: "I had the maid prepare a room for you, right next to mine."
"Call me if you need anything, or we can talk about it tomorrow."
Li Lan rubbed her hands together and stammered, "I didn't go home tonight..."
"Why go back?" Ji Huaizhi looked up: "You are my child, Ji Huaizhi's child. Where else do you want to go?"
"But……"
Li Lan felt that she had been too hasty in following him so easily.
She did doubt that she was Ma Fang's child because they had always treated her badly, and she initially thought they were just sexist.
However, more than one person mentioned that she doesn't look like Li Wanbing and Ma Fang.
"Go and rest. We can talk about it tomorrow." Ji Huaizhi had already arranged everything.
"I'll ask for leave for you tomorrow and then arrange for your transfer to another school."
Li Lan opened her mouth, but swallowed her words.
The maid took her upstairs in the elevator, and it was the first time she had ever heard that her house could have an elevator.
After going upstairs, the maid led her to her room: "This is your room. The master's room is right across from it. Someone will bring you a change of clothes in a little while."
Li Lan nodded blankly.
Upon entering the room, I discovered that it also had a separate bathroom and bathtub.
The room is bigger than the rest of the house.
The interior decorations look even more extravagant than those of wealthy people on TV.
Li Lan felt like she was dreaming.
"Knock knock".
There was a knock on the door, and Li Lan quickly opened it to find two maids delivering something.
"This is a late-night snack that the master ordered to be sent to you, saying he guessed you might be hungry now." The maid's attitude towards her could be described as quite respectful.
This made her feel uneasy.
"Thank you, I'll take it down after I finish eating," Li Lan said softly.
"No need, just put it on the cabinet by the door, someone will come and collect it."
Li Lan dared not sit on the sofa, as her clothes might get it dirty.
In the end, they could only eat standing up.
She didn't know what the bowl of food was, only that it was smooth, light, and had a milky aroma.
Then I just stared blankly at this big room.
Am I really that handsome older man's daughter?
If the paternity test shows no paternity, and I've experienced this before, how will I cope with my feelings in the future?
