The old man said -
[I promised her that I would never tell you my true life story until the day I die.]
[It is a Pandora's box. Anyone who opens it will die.]
I've lived through a year of living a life worse than death, living in constant fear, wandering from place to place, and feeling the dark, endless road ahead.
“…”
The Phoenix Jade Pendant, now worth over 200 million, and the unlimited black card that money can't buy...
So, whose child is she?
His head felt soft and Ji Zhinan came back to his senses from his own world.
She looked up and met Gu Yibei's eyes filled with tenderness: "Don't think too much about this matter, I will send someone to investigate."
"Even if there's a deep pit ahead, I'll hold you back. If even I can't hold you back, I'll just jump in with you."
The man's words warmed Ji Zhinan's slightly cold heart, and she curled the corners of her lips.
She had indeed been confused and helpless before, but since she had been with this man, she was no longer afraid of anything.
Because no matter what she does, she always has his unconditional support behind her.
Even if the sky really falls, this man will hold up the sky for him.
Qin Yu agreed and echoed: "If we're looking for someone, Yibei is more capable than Lin Que and I."
Gu Yibei himself is a member of the upper class and has plenty of connections.
The door to the private room opened and a waiter came in with a cart: "Greetings, gentlemen, your dishes are here..."
…………
Halfway through the meal, Ji Zhinan went to the bathroom.
Standing in front of the sink outside, warm water washing her delicate hands, Ji Zhinan stared at herself in the mirror, momentarily lost in thought.
Every word Qin Yu and Lin Que said in the private room was engraved in her mind. Even Gu Yibei said that her biological parents were either rich or noble.
If that's the case, why did they leave her to Grandpa? Why...
Perhaps it was really because the people involved were confused, Ji Zhinan couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brains.
What exactly happened back then?
"Ji Zhinan?"
Ji Zhinan came back to his senses when he heard someone calling him.
Seeing the face of another person besides himself in the mirror, Ji Zhinan twitched his lips and was speechless.
This world is really small. The more you don’t want to see someone, the more likely they are to appear before you.
After turning off the faucet, Ji Zhinan took a tissue and wiped his hands slowly without even looking at her.
"Miss Cao, is there something wrong?"
The one who called her was none other than Ji Zhixia's best friend, Cao Nana.
Cao Nana was out partying with her friends today. She went to the bathroom because she drank too much. She didn't expect to run into Ji Zhinan, whom she hated, as soon as she came out.
The last time the two met was at Ji Zhixia's engagement ceremony, and it had been a long time.
After not seeing each other for many days and with what happened at the engagement ceremony, when she met Ji Zhinan now, Cao Nana naturally wanted to take a closer look at her embarrassment.
But after taking a closer look, she not only did not see Ji Zhinan's embarrassment, but instead felt that she was more beautiful than before.
In the past, Ji Zhinan was indifferent and cold, exuding an aloof aura that kept strangers away, giving people the feeling that he was difficult to get along with.
She makes people feel that she is not a human being, but more like a god or goddess who is high above and can be admired but not touched.
But now, her aura has changed. Although still cold and aloof, she has a human aura, like a fairy descending to earth...
After noticing the change in Ji Zhinan, Cao Nana's eyes turned red with jealousy.
Why does a bastard without a father or mother become more and more beautiful as he grows up?
