"Your grandfather's family all went abroad before the founding of the People's Republic of China. Only their family stayed, and it was the same for your grandmother's family. Even now, your grandmother hasn't found a single relative. Otherwise, why would Mother go to the orphanage when she was young? "He Zhichu shook his head." How? "
"… But don't Grandfather have Qin Zhiyuan and Qin Zhining?" Gu Nianzhi immediately thought of Qin Zhining, who had brought her over, saved her life on Snake Island, and then shot her. "Where is Qin Zhining? If others can't, we can at least test him, right? "
He Zhichu thought about it. "Sure, but his family relationship with Mother is quite distant."
"Qin Zhiyuan and Qin Zhining's grandfather was Mother's paternal cousin, not biological brothers. Their father and Mother's cousins were even more distant. As for Qin Zhining, it's almost five generations. Are you sure you can confirm Mother's family's history of heart disease by checking Qin Zhining's condition? "
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
She knew it wouldn't be that simple.
"Then I'll think about it again," Gu Nianzhi said listlessly, but her mind began to sort out the clues she had found.
At that moment, He Zhichu's phone rang. It seemed a little out of place in the quiet park.
He Zhichu looked at his phone and saw that it was Xie Qingying. If she didn't know, she would let her imagination run wild again.
After hesitating for a moment, He Zhichu swiped open his phone and picked up the call. "Qingying, what's the matter?"
Xie Qingying was obviously relieved. She smiled and said, "Young Master He, have you finished your business? Are you coming back? I'll make you supper. "
Before He Zhichu could say anything, Gu Nianzhi had already stood up and said with a smile, "Young Master He, it's already very late. I have to go back. You should go home too."
Xie Qingying heard Gu Nianzhi's voice on the other end of the phone, and her eyebrows twitched slightly. "Young Master He, are you with Nianzhi?"
He Zhichu didn't hide anything and grunted. "Nianzhi saved my father's life. I'm here to thank her and her friends."
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
He Zhichu had no choice but to leave with her and escort her back to the apartment complex.
The two of them were about to leave when Lu Jin, who was standing in the bushes not far from the park, quickly turned around and left.
He Zhichu walked Gu Nianzhi all the way back to the entrance of the precinct. He watched her figure disappear around the corner of the tree-lined path before turning to leave.
He returned to his car and had just started it when he remembered something. He stopped the car and got out to go back to the park.
Arriving at the stone bench where he and Gu Nianzhi had been sitting, He Zhichu saw his handkerchief lying alone on the stone bench. Nearby was the tissue he had used to wipe Gu Nianzhi's tears.
He Zhichu pursed his lips and walked over. He folded the handkerchief and put it back in his pocket. He also collected all the tissues and took them to the small pond in the park. He lit them with a lighter and watched them burn to ashes and fall into the water before turning to leave.
…
When he returned to the He residence, He Zhichu went to the dining room and saw Xie Qingying sitting alone at the dining table. She was typing on her laptop and writing a work plan.
He Zhichu rubbed his temples and didn't explain. He sat across from her and said, "What did you make for supper? I didn't have dinner, so I'm a little hungry. "
Xie Qingying was surprised to hear that He Zhichu hadn't had dinner. "You didn't treat Nianzhi and her friends to dinner?"
"No, I had something to do. I went to see Nianzhi because I had some business to attend to, but found that her friend had already left. She had already had dinner, so I just chatted with her. "He Zhichu's expression didn't change as he said this. He was also surprised that he could lie so easily.
Xie Qingying didn't say anything else. She looked up at He Zhichu and smiled. "Since you haven't had dinner, don't eat this little glutinous dumpling. I'll go make chicken soup noodles for you."
The kitchen had walking chicken soup stock all year round. It also added pork bones, scallops, pigeons, longan meat, and ginger. It was perfect for making noodles.
He Zhichu nodded and smiled. "Then I'll have to trouble you."
"It's no trouble." Xie Qingying quickly shook her head. "I'll have to thank Nianzhi and her friends another day. We can't thank her enough for doing us such a big favor this time. "
"No need." He Zhichu instinctively objected. "I've already thanked her. You don't know her well."
Actually, he was a little worried that Xie Qingying would find out who her "friend" was if she interacted with Gu Nianzhi more.
After all, Xie Qingying was the niece of Gu Nianzhi's "friend".
Although they weren't familiar with each other most of the time, Gu Xiangwen had been hiding her identity for more than ten years.
Xie Qingying didn't retort. She said gently, "Okay, if you don't want me to go, I won't go."
"It's not that I don't want you to go." He Zhichu was a little embarrassed. "If you really want to go, you can go."
Xie Qingying wisely stopped talking about this topic and went to the kitchen to make noodles.
..
When Gu Nianzhi returned to her apartment, Lu Jin immediately followed her in.
He closed the door and looked at Gu Nianzhi. He quickly said, "I was worried about you. I didn't mean to follow you."
Gu Nianzhi's expression was still very cold. She said lightly, "It doesn't matter if you followed me. After all, I'm your test subject. You have to track the results of the test subject, right?"
Lu Jin felt very bad. He knew that he had really hurt Gu Nianzhi's heart.
He walked over carefully and followed Gu Nianzhi to the kitchen. Seeing that she was thirsty and wanted to drink water, he quickly stepped forward and poured her a glass of water.
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
"What do you want to do?" Gu Nianzhi sat down at the dining table. "I'm very tired. I want to go to sleep."
Lu Jin rubbed his hand on the seam of his pants and muttered, "Nianzhi, I heard what He Zhichu said to you just now."
The corners of Gu Nianzhi's mouth twitched. "You hid it so well."
She was so agitated that she didn't notice that there was someone nearby.
She didn't know if He Zhichu had noticed or not, but he had said so much later. It wasn't ruled out that he had done it on purpose. Telling the truth would kill two birds with one stone.
Because the key to the whole case was actually Lu Jin, or Gu Xiangwen.
Only if he stood up and told them the contents of the hour-long secret conversation would they be able to guide them in the right direction.
However, Gu Nianzhi felt that Lu Jin wouldn't say it no matter what. As for why, she couldn't figure it out, and she couldn't be bothered to think about it for the time being.
Lu Jin actually knew that Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu probably wanted to know what he and Qin Suwen had talked about in that hour. He didn't want to say it because Qin Suwen had made him swear not to mention this topic to anyone again.
Lu Jin hadn't made many vows in his life, but he hadn't broken his promise.
Moreover, he couldn't say it out loud.
Lu Jin looked at Gu Nianzhi's unhappy face and was at a loss for words. "So Suwen was so good to you back then. I know my decision was right."
"… Not wrong?!" Gu Nianzhi was furious again. "Then do you admit that Qin Suwen is my biological mother?!"
Lu Jin: "…"
"… Since you know she's my biological mother, you still want me to get engaged to Young Master He?! Young Master He is my half-brother from a different father! Do you know what you're doing?! "
Gu Nianzhi pounded the sofa and roared angrily.
Lu Jin thought to himself, I can answer this question.
He blinked and said seriously, "In theory, relatives who are related by blood can't form a family together and have children because they have too many of the same genes. It's easier for disease-causing genes to be expressed, which will greatly increase the probability of genetic defects in the offspring, which is detrimental to the continuation of the human race."
"But you have perfect genes. There are no disease-causing or defective genes in your genes, and you also have a powerful ability to repair and correct errors."
"I've also cured He Zhichu's genetic defects. Your children won't have any genetic diseases or defects, and there won't be any obstacles to reproducing."
Lu Jin asked in confusion, "… So why can't we get engaged?"
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
Damn it, this logic was so perfect that she didn't know how to refute it at all!
