The brother and sister walked side by side, chatting and laughing all the way, creating an extremely harmonious atmosphere.
The employees of the Huo Group had never seen Huo Jinning before, but upon seeing her today, they were immediately attracted by her unique temperament.
She was tall and slender with a beautiful face, and every gesture she made exuded an elegant and confident charm.
At that moment, she was having a pleasant conversation with the president beside her, occasionally flashing a bright smile.
Everyone couldn't help but feel curious and began to speculate about the relationship between them.
Most people assume she is his girlfriend.
I never expected that not only is the CEO handsome, but his girlfriend is also so beautiful.
This aroused envy, jealousy, and hatred among many people.
No one guessed that the two were siblings.
I only found out later when the receptionist told me.
Xiao Liu [Ding! There's some gossip.]
I knew it; I wouldn't come out for nothing. Hehe.
[This is my brother's assistant.]
[What a tragic story for this man. He was kidnapped by human traffickers as a child and sold to his current adoptive parents. At first, his adoptive parents, who didn't have any children of their own, treated him quite well.]
[Later, they had a daughter and considered abandoning him, but by then he was old enough to remember things. The adoptive parents were also afraid of being exposed for buying the child, so they had no choice but to continue raising him.]
[Without our own rooms, we had to sleep in thatched huts. In summer, the mosquitoes were so numerous they could bite you to death, and in winter they could freeze you to death.]
[Even so, he still managed to get into the best university through his own hard work.]
[However, due to being manipulated by her family and having to take care of her younger sister, she lived frugally in another province and sent all her money back home, but her family was still not satisfied.]
[So pitiful.]
Both siblings showed regret, their gazes fixed on Huo Nanchu's assistant, Feng Quan. Their eyes held a deep sense of disappointment and loss, as if they were deeply disillusioned with something.
Feng Quan sensed the two strange gazes, but felt completely bewildered and didn't say anything.
[And his biological parents, in their search for him, turned gray at a young age.]
[The hearts of parents are always full of love and concern.]
[Two elderly people went bankrupt searching for him, eating only coarse food every day, just to save a little money to find him.]
[Waaaah...]
Huo Jinning frowned and walked into the president's office with a distressed expression.
"Ningning, come here quickly and take a look at this."
When Huo Nanchu saw her come in, he quickly handed her a box from the table.
In fact, Huo Nanchu felt equally indignant after learning about Feng Quan's experience, but at this moment he was helpless.
After all, you can't just tell Feng Quan directly, "Your current parents aren't your biological parents."
Wouldn't that be making a fuss over nothing?
Therefore, he had no choice but to forcibly interrupt Huo Jinning's thoughts.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Huo Jinning opened the box, her eyes sparkling with surprise.
He stared intently at the ring in his hand, which resembled a crystal-clear block of ice, radiating a cool, serene glow.
Its texture is delicate and flawless, and the internal patterns can be seen when the light shines through it.
The thumb ring is engraved with a lifelike dragon, its eyes are bright and its scales are clearly visible, as if it could take off at any moment.
The dragon has a majestic appearance and a lithe figure; every detail is exquisitely sculpted.
"Brother, how did you do that? It's so realistic."
"This is the spirit of craftsmanship. In fact, our country has been able to do this for a long time, and even better."
"Yes, that's true. The exhibits in the museum are indeed exquisite. Each generation has its own wisdom."
"It's almost lunchtime. Wait for me a bit, we'll go eat together, and then you can go home." Huo Nanchu glanced at his watch.
"Okay, sure."
After finishing her work, Huo Nanchu took Huo Jinning out for lunch.
When I arrived at the door, I saw Feng Quan talking to two other people.
[It can't be such a coincidence, can it?]
[These are Feng Quan's biological parents.]
Let me take another look.
[It really is those two; they were in the video, just a little younger than they are now.]
[The three of them seem to get along quite well.]
How can I tell them?
[Oh, I've got it.]
"Assistant Feng, what a coincidence! You're going to dinner too. You really do look like your parents."
Huo Jinning smiled and walked straight up to Feng Quan.
Upon hearing this, Feng Quan's expression changed slightly. He waved his hand awkwardly and hurriedly explained, "No, Miss Huo, you've misunderstood. These aren't my parents."
However, in stark contrast to Feng Quan's composure, the two people beside him appeared quite flustered, their eyes revealing a sense of bewilderment.
They stared intently at Feng Quan, as if trying to find some familiar shadow in him.
Suddenly, one of the women seemed to remember something, and a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes.
She bit her lip tightly, her voice trembling slightly as she asked, "Xiao Feng, do you have a red birthmark on your waist, on the right side?"
His tone carried an undisguised anticipation.
In reality, she knew very well that there was no such thing as a coincidence in the world.
But deep down, I couldn't help but hold onto a sliver of hope.
At that moment, Feng Quan turned around, looking at the woman with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Aunt Zhang, how did you know?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman named Aunt Zhang trembled violently. She raised her hand shakily and grabbed Feng Quan's arm tightly. Tears streamed down her face like a burst dam, and she couldn't stop them no matter what.
