Chapter 104

Compared to last time, Yan Xi felt that Zhou Yanci seemed more uninhibited.

It's like a switch was turned on.

She had clearly concealed the reason why Zhou Yanci approached him before, and she had even prepared dozens of versions of her apology. Wouldn't he delve into it further?

The night was deep, the rain was heavy, and Yan Xi felt like her body was about to fall apart. The initial soreness was replaced by joy, and Yan Xi even forgot the questions she wanted to ask.

"Zhou Yanci...can we turn off the lights?"

Zhou Yanci asked her back, "Why do you turn off the lights?"

Because you will see it!

Although the light in the room was a little dim, the view from the window reflected the dark rainy night outside, appearing ambiguous and profound.

Yan Xi's face was as red as an apple, and her earlobes were so bright red that they looked like blood could drip out.

Even though it wasn't the first time, Yan Xi still felt Zhou Yanci's body flushed with excitement and she didn't know where to look.

Zhou Yanci stretched out his hand and pulled, and Yan Xi thought he was going to turn off the lights, but he pulled a tie. When Yan Xi was confused, he covered Yan Xi's eyes with the tie and tied a knot at the back of her hair.

"no……"

"You can't see it this way." Zhou Yanci said while biting her earlobe.

Zhou Yanci hugged Yan Xi and turned around.

A numbing feeling like electric current instantly spread throughout Yan Xi's body, as if it was an electric shock, and even her toes trembled.

Losing vision is even worse.

Especially when Zhou Yanci hugged her from behind, Yan Xi's world fell into darkness, leaving only speculation and the unknown.

Even if the quilt gently stroked her smooth back, Yan Xi would feel nervous.

Zhou Yanci pressed his hot body against Yan Xi's back, pinching her chin and kissing her cheeks.

"Be good, relax."

His voice is deep, sexy and magnetic, like a decadent temptation.

Yan Xi sobbed softly. She instinctively wanted to escape, but she was trapped in Zhou Yanci's arms in such a small space that she had no way to retreat.

The rainy night was long, and Yan Xi couldn't tell whether the sound was from the water outside or from inside. It was like fireworks exploding in her head, bright and romantic.

The sky was filled with hazy fireworks and an endless sense of joy spread. She could no longer tell what year it was or what day it was.

——

Afterwards, Zhou Yanci carried Yan Xi to the bathroom to take a shower.

There were mottled red marks on Yan Xi's fair skin, like red plum blossoms in the snow.

His lower abdomen tensed and Zhou Yanci's eyes were filled with desire again.

No, that's too much.

Zhou Yanci took a deep breath, suppressed all thoughts, and carefully helped Yan Xi wash with the showerhead.

After returning to the room, Yan Xi snuggled into Zhou Yanci's arms.

Winter nights are very cold, especially when you just get back to bed. It’s cold under the sheets. Even if the heater is on in the room, it can’t warm up under the sheets.

Fortunately, Zhou Yanci's body was hot, and Yan Xi was just trying to keep warm. She didn't notice the dark color in Zhou Yanci's eyes, even his amber pupils became darker.

Zhou Yanci sighed and silently tucked in the quilt for Yan Xi.

Maybe it was past bedtime, Yan Xi became energetic and looked up to ask Zhou Yanci, "Did you tell Lu Wanning about Aunt Zhang's matter?"

Zhou Yanci nodded.

Zhou Yanci couldn't hear Yan Xi's thoughts, but he could hear the system's voice. After hearing the system's words at the birthday party, it was not difficult to guess that the Lu family's failure to find their daughter was Yan Xi's doing. Zhou Yanci also roughly deduced the reason why Yan Xi had a blood transfusion.

She couldn't use her own DNA then, but that's different now.

"I told Lu Wanning not to let you know."

Zhou Yanci originally thought that since the plot had nothing to do with Whisper, he also hoped that Yan Xi could find her family.

He still remembers the little girl in the corridor five years ago, she cried so sadly. Qingyu is Yan Xi's support, and so is he, but Zhou Yanci still hopes that there will be more people who can care about Yan Xi after she dies.

He never thought that Lu Wanning's DNA could be discovered by Yan Xi.

Even when Lin Zhi tried to collect the DNA of Meng Xuanyu and Meng Yingrong, the parties involved didn't discover it. Lu Wanning's skills are too poor!

Yan Xi said seriously, "I didn't discover it. The system told me."

Zhou Yanci: "That artificial idiot?"

System: [……]

What are these two doing! Can't it hear when the small dark room is not locked? Don't say bad things about Tong behind his back!

"Actually, it doesn't matter what I say!" Yan Xi shrugged. "After all, even if the Lu family doesn't look for me, maybe one day when I feel like it, I will look for the Lu family to verify it once?"

Yan Xi thought it was good to be able to find her family.

If you can’t find it, just accept it.

Life is long, and this is not her only chance.

"But..." Yan Xi changed the subject, "Lu Wanning is your fiancée in the novel. When you woke up and saw her, did you have any thoughts?"

Zhou Yanci frowned, "What can I think? She and I were just an engaged couple in name only in my last life."

"We got married to deal with all the blind dates in our family."

The idea of ​​never getting married was too advanced among the wealthy. After all, marriage was just cooperation, and Zhou Yanci thought it was fine. At least Meng Yingrong wouldn't bother him all the time, and when he attended banquets, there wouldn't be old friends of Zhou's father who would introduce him to someone openly or secretly.

Zhou Yanci really thought so, and suddenly he felt that the gaze in front of him became deep and sour.

Zhou Yanci:!!!

He hurriedly said, "Lu Wanning and I have nothing! Really!"

Yan Xi lay on the bed, holding her chin, and looked at Zhou Yanci curiously, "Have you held hands?"

“…”

"Yes. But that's from a novel!"

"Have you hugged me?"

“…”

"I think, once?"

"That……"

Before Yan Xi finished speaking, Zhou Yanci said decisively, "No! Absolutely not!"

Yan Xi laughed, her laughter was as sweet as the sound of silver bells. "I know. So after you got into trouble, didn't Lu Wan Ning team up with Pei Yubai to swallow up Zhou's? She is your fiancée, but she teamed up with outsiders to swallow up Zhou's industry. I guess she has no feelings for you!"

Before Yan Xi had no feelings for Zhou Yanci, she was also curious. Even though Lu Wanning and Zhou Yanci were an engaged couple, could they help Pei Yubai swallow up the Zhou family just because of the relationship between the Lu family and Ye Luoyi?

Now that I think about it, it’s probably because the relationship between Zhou Yanci and Lu Wanning is too plastic.

Lu Wan Ning just did what a businessman would do, just like Yan Xi took advantage of Meng Xuanyu's suicide attempt to suggest Zhou Qingyu to acquire Meng's company.

"If you were already married at that time, the ending might be different." Yan Xi analyzed seriously.

Alarm bells rang in Zhou Yanci's mind, and he kept silent.

Seeing how nervous he was, Yan Xi smiled and pushed him aside. "I was just analyzing the situation in the novel! If you were married, Lu Wan Ning would be able to inherit your estate after something happened to you, and she wouldn't have taken action against Zhou, right?"

Yan Xi always felt that the novel was able to achieve Pei Yubai's victory over Pei Hanli and win the beauty because the plot was a blessing for him. If there were any wrong links, Pei Yubai would not be successful.

Yan Xi has a very good impression of Lu Wan Ning. She feels that Lu Wan Ning is a strong woman in her career, and she is also kind, polite and beautiful in private. If she had a closer relationship with the Zhou family, she shouldn't attack the Zhou family, right?

Zhou Yanci did not comment, "If, I mean if, in the novel, Lu Wanning and I got married, then she would definitely not join forces with Pei Yubai."

Yan Xi nodded in agreement.

Zhou Yanci added, "She will swallow up the Zhou family on her own and make the Lu family the overlord of Haicheng."

Yan Xi: “……?”

Yan Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "But, even if Lu Wan Ning swallowed up Zhou's company on her own, she wouldn't do anything to Qing Qing, and she certainly wouldn't let her dig sweet potatoes, right?"

Zhou Yanci: "That's right."

Then Zhou Yanci was stunned. "So you and I analyzed so much just to find that my marriage with Lu Wanning is also a way to save Qingyu?"

Yan Xi shrank her neck and buried her head in the quilt.

"I didn't say that!"

…

It was already very late. It had been more than three hours since Lu Wanning obtained Yan Xi's DNA. With the Lu family's technology, they should have gotten the identification results long ago.

But Lu Wanning and Lu Beiyu both knew Yan Xi’s WeChat, but they did not contact her.

Zhou Yanci saw Yan Xi looking at her phone and guessed what she was worried about.

"Want to know the result?"

Yan Xi nodded.

Zhou Yanci put his arms around Yan Xi and held her in his arms.

"Go to sleep first. I'll accompany you to see Lu Wanning tomorrow."

——

Zhou Yanci and Lu Wan agreed on a time and place to meet, in a well-hidden cafe on the tenth floor of Hongrui Shopping Mall.

The results of the DNA identification can also be displayed on the phone. Zhou Yanci mainly wanted the Lu family to keep Yan Xi's DNA data if the verification failed this time. The Lu family specializes in medical care and has a huge DNA database. With their help, it would be easier to find Yan Xi's family.

Zhou Yanci actually thinks that the probability of the Lu family being Yan Xi's biological parents is very low. In this life, due to the plot, the Lu family and Yan Xi seem to have many similarities, but in the novel, the Lu family and Yan Xi have nothing to do with each other.

At the Huangbaoshi Cafe, Yan Xi and Zhou Yanci arrived early.

The meeting time is scheduled to be 10:00 AM.

Yan Xi sipped her mocha, without moving the small cake in front of her.

She told herself that it didn’t matter if it wasn’t, and it was normal if it wasn’t.

But I still feel uneasy.

Every time someone came into the cafe, Yan Xi would stretch her neck to take a look.

Zhou Yanci looked at her and asked, "Did you also wait like this when you did DNA tests with other families before?"

"The waiting time has been even longer!" Yan Xi said, "The Lu family has the technology. It was common to wait for a week before."

The long wait will make imagination become detailed and fill Yan Xi's heart bit by bit.

She would imagine what her parents were like, what her family would be like, would she have brothers and sisters, would her brothers and sisters accept her?

Anyway, there is no result, just hope.

Later, one result after another without parent-child relationship emerged, destroying all the imaginations during the waiting period.

But Yan Xi will still go for a paternity test.

When in Hancheng, Yan Xi deceived Lu Beiyu.

She was not disappointed in finding her family. On the contrary, she still wanted to find her family.

Even if her family was ordinary, even if her family was penniless, or they did not expect to find Yan Xi, perhaps they had deliberately lost Yan Xi.

But Yan Xi still wanted to know.

Perhaps it was the bond engraved in their blood that made her curious about what kind of people her parents were. Everyone has parents, and she should have one too. Even if they couldn't live together, it would be good for them to meet.

Time passes by.

The café's pointer had already passed the ten o'clock position, but Lu Wanning still hadn't shown up.

This result is the result for Yan Xi.

Before Yan Xi was a minor, every time she had a test, the hospital would first tell her parents the DNA test results. Some families knew that the results were negative, but they were still sad and forgot to tell Yan Xi.

Yan Xi looked at the door of the cafe. It was empty and no one came in.

She murmured, "Not this time either."

Zhou Yanci felt so sad that he hugged Yan Xi.

"It's okay," Yan Xi encouraged herself, "There will be opportunities in the future! I'll always find it~"

Zhou Yanci gently rubbed her head and said, "Well, even if Haicheng doesn't have it, I'll go with you to look for it somewhere else."

Yan Xi and Zhou Yanci stood up and left the cafe.

In front of the elevator, Yan Xi took a deep breath and adjusted herself.

She took out her cell phone and wanted to contact Lin Zhi, saying that she would return to Xingyao later.

The next second, the door of the stairwell next to the elevator was suddenly slammed open, and Lu Wanning and Lu Beiyu came out of the stairwell panting!

"Lubei Island, you idiot! Next time you navigate me to the suburbs, I will strangle you to death, you hear me!"

Lu Beiyu was pinched on the ear by Lu Wanning, and he screamed miserably, "How did I know there was another cafe like this in the suburbs? I thought I had located it correctly!"

"And the elevator in the mall was broken. We had to climb to the tenth floor by ourselves! Who could have thought we would be so unlucky?"

"Sister, stop pulling my ears! I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong!"

"If I don't see Yan Xi today, I'll go back and beat you to death!"

While Lu Wanning was scolding Lu Beiyu, she turned around and saw Yan Xi standing in front of the elevator with a confused look on her face.

Lu Wanning was stunned.

After climbing ten floors in high-heeled shoes, Lu Wanning's heels were worn out, her forehead was covered in sweat, and her delicate makeup was stripped off.

But the moment she saw Yan Xi, she suddenly felt that it was all worth it.

They have failed countless times in the past twenty years, but they have survived every time. This little setback today is nothing.

Lu Wanning rushed forward and hugged Yan Xi tightly.

Yan Xi was stunned. She had comforted herself that it was okay if she couldn't find her family, but she didn't expect to see Lu Wan Ning and Lu Bei Yu at the elevator entrance. She didn't expect that the first sentence Lu Wan Ning said after hugging her was -

"Xixi, we have been looking for you for twenty years and finally found you."

"We have missed you so much over the past twenty years."

Yan Xi's pupils shrank and her nose felt sore.

After five years of searching, she finally got the answer.

…

Last night, at the genetic testing agency under Lu's control, Lu Wanning already knew the results of the DNA test.

Just in case, she had the doctor verify it more than once.

She could actually tell Yan Xi the truth on WeChat, which is quick and convenient.

But Yan Xi still doesn’t know about the DNA test. In that case... Lu Wan Ning wants to tell Yan Xi in person. She has a lot of things she wants to say to Yan Xi.

…

Yellowstone Cafe

Lu Wanning took out yesterday's inspection report.

Both she and Yan Xi had seen such reports countless times, and this time, the report's appraisal results proved that she and Lu Wanning were sisters.

Not only that, Lu Wanning also made three reports that clearly proved that Yan Xi and Lu Beiyu, as well as Lu's father and mother, were related.

Perhaps it was the last accident that made Lu Wanning afraid, so this time she made full preparations.

"Xixi, these reports are not false. You are indeed the little daughter of our Lu family."

Yan Xi stared at the reports blankly, feeling that they were somewhat unreal.

It seems like a long-cherished wish has finally been fulfilled, but I feel empty and confused about the future.

Maybe she has grown up. If she had found her parents when she was young, she could hug them and act coquettishly, and tell them all the grievances she had suffered in the past.

But she is now 20 years old and an adult. Even though the other person is her relative, she is very happy and genuinely delighted, but she also feels a sense of alienation and strangeness between adults.

After twenty years of separation, they are nothing more than strangers except for their blood ties.

Lu Wanning noticed Yan Xi's reservation and said, "Xixi, your parents also know the results of the test and are waiting for you at home. Are you willing to go back with us to see them?"

Yan Xi looked up at Lu Wanning and asked, "Do you mean to go to Lu's house?"

Zhou Yanci also asked, "Why didn't Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu come?"

The last time the Lu family came to the Zhou family to look for Yan Xi, although Zhou Yanci was not there, Zhou's father mentioned that Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were there at that time. Now that it has been verified again, there is no reason for the two of them not to come.

Lu Beiyu looked lost, "My mother is sick and my father is taking care of her at home."

Yan Xi was stunned. "Is it because of... the previous DNA test?"

After experiencing the great joy of successfully finding the DNA, she then experienced the great sorrow of not being able to find her daughter. As a mother, it was normal for Lu's mother to become sick because of this.

Seeing that Lu Wanning and Lu Beiyu did not refute, Yan Xi knew that her guess was almost right.

Yan Xi lowered her head guiltily, "I'm sorry."

Lu Wanning didn't know that Yan Xi had changed her blood sample, and Zhou Yanci didn't tell her.

Lu Wanning comforted Yan Xi, "You didn't want to be tested with us in the past, there must be a reason, and we are not relatives, but the test showed that we are related by blood. There is something wrong with our test, how can I blame you?"

"We were unable to find you in time."

Lu Wan Ning thought that if they could find Yan Xi faster, Yan Xi would not have felt so lost and resistant to finding her relatives.

Yan Xi is just an individual, and the Lu family is wealthy and powerful. They live in the same city, so the Lu family should have found her earlier.

Lu Wanning held Yan Xi's hand and said, "Xixi, come home with us, okay?"

Yan Xi had a little worry in her heart, but her curiosity about her biological parents overcame everything, and she nodded.

——

The elevator in the mall was temporarily repaired and took an hour to repair. When Yan Xi and others came out, the elevator had been repaired.

In the underground parking lot, Lu Wanning let Yan Xi sit in the back seat of the car, Lu Beiyu sat in the back seat to accompany Yan Xi, and Lu Wanning sat in the driver's seat to drive.

Before Lu Beiyu got on the car, Zhou Yanci followed.

Lu Wanning glanced at Zhou Yanci and said, "We are going home as a family, why are you following us?"

Zhou Yanci:?

"I was the one who reminded you to retest your DNA. How could you just go back and do it?"

Lu Beiyu whispered, "Sister, this person may be my future brother-in-law."

Lu Wanning frowned deeply.

She sat in the driver's seat and turned to look at Yan Xi in the back seat. "Xi Xi, things are different now. Our Lu family has plenty of money. You don't have to put yourself in a difficult position because of money."

Zhou Yanci: ????? ?????

"No, why do you feel wronged when you are with me?"

Lu Wanning looked at Zhou Yanci as a matter of course, "Zhou Yanci, have some shame, you are almost 30 years old, and my sister is only 20 years old! Even an old cow eating young grass would not be like you!"

Zhou Yan was speechless... Zhou Yan was speechless.

Is it something he can decide about age?

Besides, seven years old isn’t that old, right?

Zhou Yanci suddenly felt depressed. He should have worn casual sportswear today, why a suit?

Yan Xi hurriedly comforted him, "Not very old, not very old..."

However, Yan Xi also felt that it was inappropriate for Zhou Yanci to accompany her, so she jumped out of the car and comforted Zhou Yanci, "Why don't you go back to Zhou's first? It's also okay for me and... Lu Wanning to go back to Lu's house."

"I'm worried about you being alone."

"What are you worried about?" Lu Wanning looked at Zhou Yanci in disbelief, "I am Xixi's biological sister!"

"Big sister! Big sister!" Lu Beiyu acted as a peacemaker, "After all, we just found the second sister! We are not familiar with each other yet. Mr. Zhou has known the second sister for many years, so she must be more familiar with her than we are."

Speaking of this, Lu Wanning felt a little depressed.

She is obviously her own sister, how can a man be more familiar with her sister than she is with her sister!

Suddenly, the roar of a car engine was heard from the underground garage, and a nanny car stopped next to Yan Xi and Zhou Yanci.

Zhou Qingyu got out of the nanny car and took off her exaggerated sunglasses.

"I'll accompany Xixi back to Lu's house!"

Zhou Yanci looked at Zhou Qingyu unhappily, "Why are you here?"

Yan Xi stretched out her little hand, "I told Qingqing!"

Yan Xi had done DNA testing too many times in the past, so she felt that there was no need to tell anyone about the DNA testing, nor about the failed testing. However, she still had to tell Zhou Qingyu if the testing was successful.

As soon as she knew the result, Yan Xi sent a WeChat message to Zhou Qingyu.

Zhou Qingyu took Yan Xi's arm and said, "You and Xixi haven't gotten married yet, why are you in such a hurry?

Xixi's best friend, of course I will accompany her back!"

Zhou Yanci wanted to refute, but Zhou Qingyu poked him with her sunglasses.

"How long have you been with Xixi? Are you as familiar with her as I am with her? Just get out of here! How can I let her suffer any injustice when I am with her?"

Zhou Yanci felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but Zhou Qingyu was right. With her around, the Lu family would not embarrass Yan Xi.

And if Yan Xi decides to return to the Lu family, and he wants to be with Yan Xi, he has to find a way to get past the Lu family.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yanci nodded reluctantly.

He looked at Yan Xi and said, "If you need me, feel free to contact me."

…

Zhou Yanci drove away in his Aston Martin.

Yan Xi discussed with Lu Wan Ning and she decided to take a light nanny car and let the nanny car follow Lu Wan Ning's car back to Lu's house.

Lu Wanning hesitated for a second and then agreed.

She had watched the variety show "Travel" and knew that Zhou Qingyu was very good to Yan Xi.

The bus assignment was confirmed. Zhou Qingyu grabbed Yan Xi. She still didn't understand. Last time Yan Xi didn't want to do a DNA test with the Lu family, so how come she suddenly became the daughter of the Lu family?

"Is it the Lu family that threatens you? If so, nod your head. It's just the Lu family. We are not afraid of them!"

Yan Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "In the past, we couldn't verify the DNA for some reason, but now it's OK!"

Zhou Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief. When she received the news, she was puzzled and thought Yan Xi was kidnapped. She didn't even have time to eat lunch and rushed over in a hurry.

She straightened her back and patted Yan Xi's shoulder. "It's okay. I'll accompany you back to the Lu family. If the Lu family treats you badly, we'll just turn around and leave! They just have some money. Who doesn't have money? Without the Lu family, I'll just support you!"
