Baihu, noticing Zhan Hanjue's somewhat unusual behavior, suddenly asked:
"Sir, you wouldn't happen to have fallen for this Miss Ling, would you?"
"How could that be? I'm just a little sorry that such a cute little girl was ruined by that good-for-nothing boy from the Qin family."
“Master, you must have misunderstood him. Not long ago, the girl that the young master of the Qin family took to the cemetery on the outskirts of the city was this Miss Ling. At first, I didn’t recognize her either, until the young master of the Qin family suddenly appeared, and then I remembered this.” Baihu said in detail.
"So it was her! No wonder I felt like I'd seen her somewhere before..."
Zhan Hanjue secretly guessed that Ling Mo's appearance at the cemetery that day was most likely because he, like him, had gone to visit Shi Ying.

I suspect she might be my and Aying's daughter."
Hearing Zhan Hanjue's words, Baihu also mustered up his courage and spoke his mind:
“Sir, actually, when I first met Miss Ling, I felt that she looked very much like you. However, at that time I didn’t know that she was a daughter of the Ling family, so I didn’t think about it in that way. Now that I think about it, Miss Ling and you are so destined to be together, it’s really possible that she is your biological daughter.”
"Arrange a paternity test as soon as possible. Remember, don't alert anyone." Zhan Hanjue took a deep breath, his voice trembling slightly.
He had never felt so uneasy since Shi Ying passed away...
