The setting sun fades away, and the slowly deepening evening glow illuminates every corner of the city.
Yan Xinxin once again gets into Mo Chuxi’s car, preparing to return to the estate.
She sits steadily in her seat, her beautiful eyes fixed on the storage compartnt in front of her, pulling out the identification report.
Thinking her mood had cald significantly, yet the mont she truly has to look at the result, she still feels an overwhelming nervousness.
Mo Chuxi glances sideways at the dazed and absent-minded little woman, but says nothing.
Yan Xinxin carefully tears open the file envelope, holding her breath. Finally, she musters up the courage to flip to the very last page.
She has never seen such impactful words: Biological Match Confird!
Yan Xinxin’s eyes blur almost instantly, and her heart starts beating furiously.
"Ah."
Suddenly, a sound of pain escapes her lips as she raises a hand to press against her chest.
Seeing this, Mo Chuxi imdiately steps on the brakes, bringing the car to a steady stop by the roadside.
"Xinxin, are you okay?"
He leans forward nervously. Seeing her reaction, he knows it’s an episode of heart pain.
"It hurts, my heart hurts so much!"
Yan Xinxin struggles to breathe, her fingers tightly clutching the docunt.
Those bold, glaring four words on the paper—she doesn’t dare to look at them again. Tears stream down the corners of her eyes. Accompanying the heartache, she feels as if, among the bustling traffic of the city, she sees flashes of her childhood...
It’s Ning Zitong holding her hand, leading her to the flower-entwined swing chair. Then, Mu Shaoqian appears, gently pushing the swing for her.
She sees herself smiling so brightly at the cara lens held by Mu Jingheng.
Such a complete family.
Such happiness.
But soon, the warm and cozy image shatters into pieces.
Yan Xinxin presses against her chest, her tear-filled eyes turning scarlet and lifeless as she stares blankly forward. Familiar voices nervously calling her na echo by her ears, yet her consciousness grows increasingly blurred...
The four corners of dusk close in.
Central Hospital.
Ye Lirong’s slightly overweight figure rushes into Mu Qianshui’s hospital room.
She doesn’t even bother knocking, bursting in impatiently.
Mu Qianshui, long forgotten by visitors, hears soone intruding and curiously opens her eyes.
"Qianshui!"
Ye Lirong hurriedly approaches the bedside, visibly overwheld and excited.
Seeing her, Mu Qianshui feels nothing but irritation.
"Why are you here! Get out right now!"
"Qianshui, I ca specifically to tell you sothing important!"
"What nonsense are you spouting? I’m not your daughter! My mother is Ning Zitong, the wealthy matriarch of the Ancheng elite. Not soone like you!"
"Qianshui, I know you can’t accept the truth that you’re my daughter right now, but this ti I really have sothing vital to tell you!"
Ye Lirong’s anxious expression montarily stuns Mu Qianshui.
Suddenly, her curiosity also rises. What could this old woman want to say?
"Qianshui, it turns out that Yan Xinxin... She’s Mrs. Mu’s biological daughter, Mu Qianyuan!"
"What did you say?"
Mu Qianshui is thunderstruck.
"How did you know? How could you possibly know Yan Xinxin is Mu Qianyuan?!"
"You... Qianshui, does this an you already knew Yan Xinxin is Mrs. Mu’s biological daughter, Mu Qianyuan?"
Ye Lirong is now even more shocked than Mu Qianshui.
The two of them stare wide-eyed at each other, montarily left speechless in their astonishnt.
"How do you know? Tell quickly!"
"I found out from the news..."
Ye Lirong explains, recounting every detail of what had happened to Mu Qianshui.
Mu Qianshui is stunned and never expected the Mu family would issue a missing person notice.
"You mustn’t tell anyone about this!"
She imdiately warns Ye Lirong.
Ye Lirong nods repeatedly.
"I understand, I won’t ntion it to anyone. You can rest assured..."
"Bang!"
The hospital room door is suddenly kicked open!
"What were you just talking about? Is it true?! Tell now!"
