Chapter 851: Diminished
Yu’er was such a wonderful girl…
Nangong Qin was silent for a moment before he spoke with a deeper tone again. “What happened, exactly? Get straight to the point. Stop beating around the bush.”
“Yes.”
Gu Mingzhe did not dare to keep Nangong Qin in suspense and told him about the conflict between Zhong Nuannuan and Zhong Qianqian. He kept his recounts rather close to the truth.
After all, Zhong Nuannuan was the person that he really liked. He could not make himself harm Zhong Nuannuan just to help Zhong Qianqian.
Therefore, Gu Mingzhe put all the blame on the two girls fighting for their parents’ favor.
Originally, Zhong Qianqian and Zhong Nuannuan were on very good terms, but Zhong Qianqian quarreled with her cla.s.smates in school. The cla.s.smate had a seizure, but Zhong Qianqian did not know about it. She pushed the cla.s.smate, and the cla.s.smate died after falling down the stairs. Seeing how scared Zhong Qianqian was, Zhong Nuannuan took the blame in Zhong Qianqian’s stead.
Later, Zhong Nuannuan’s fiancé helped her clear her name. After she was released from prison, she was no longer as intimate with Zhong Qianqian. As they fought each other for motherly love, the two sisters gradually became enemies.
Unexpectedly, it turned out that Zhong Nuannuan’s adoptive father was Duke Eton. At an auction held two days ago, Duke Eton played the video of Zhong Qianqian pus.h.i.+ng someone to his death that caused Zhong Qianqian to be arrested in public. Although Duke Eton was only the Duke of Luntan, he had people from the Foreign Affairs Office watching over him. In addition, Zhong Nuannuan’s fiancé was on good terms with Young Master Xiao of the Xiao family. Thus, all the cities and districts made Zhong Qianqian’s incident a case study with streams of articles popping up like mushrooms after rain. Now, the enmity between Zhong Qianqian and Zhong Nuannuan was recorded in history whether it was on newspapers or mobile news.
Nangong Qin had an inkling that the name, Zhong Qianqian, sounded rather familiar. When he heard Gu Mingzhe’s words, he realized that Yu’er’s daughter was actually the evil sister that they often criticized after meals. He was overwhelmed with discomfort.
So, Zhong Qianqian was Yu’er’s daughter?
Why not Zhong Nuannuan?
If Jiang Shuwan was Zhong Nuannuan’s biological mother, why did she treat Zhong Nuannuan so badly? None of it made sense.
However, he also believed that Gu Mingzhe would not dare to use this kind of blood-related matter as a form of deceit. After all, matters like these could be easily unraveled if they get investigated. Gu Mingzhe did not claim that Zhong Qianqian was the little princess of the Nangong family—she was the little princess of the Nangong family!
Everything could only be finalized after getting everyone in the Nangong family to go through DNA tests!
Well…
Why was Zhong Nuannuan not the little princess of the Nangong family?
If only it were Zhong Nuannuan! How wonderful would it be!
Yet, it was Zhong Qianqian…
When he thought of Zhong Qianqian, Nangong Qin’s enthusiasm for finding his niece diminished by half.
Truly, it diminished by half.
As he was rather intrigued about this incident, he watched the recording taken at the auction. No matter how he looked at them, Zhong Qianqian and Zhong Nuannuan were not on the same page, be it in terms of their aura or presence.
Gu Mingzhe did not say this, but after hearing his words, Nangong Qin was suddenly hit by an epiphany!
Zhong Qianqian looked completely different from Yu’er when she was young. On the other hand, Zhong Nuannuan looked very similar to Yu’er when she was young!
So, how did the Nangong blood flow in Zhong Qianqian and not Zhong Nuannuan?
Something was wrong. He must go back and consult professionals about this. He should also get someone to sneak Zhong Nuannuan’s blood over too.
Suppressing the shock and excitement in his heart, Nangong Qin said, “Alright, I’ve taken note of this matter. However, this is just a one-sided story from you. Whether Zhong Qianqian’s blood is similar to our Nangong family; whether she’s the Nangong family’s lost child, we can only know for sure after we go through DNA tests ourselves.”
