On the day I was released from prison, I had a flash marriage with the heir of a wealthy family.

Qin Yan then looked for the baby's room and study room, but couldn't find them.

Qin Yan came directly to the first floor.

Seeing the housekeeper busy in the living room, he asked, "Have you seen the young lady?"

The housekeeper stopped what he was doing, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems that he just walked outside. He should be in the courtyard."

"Okay." Qin Yan responded and strode out quickly.

The manor is a bit big.

Qin Yan searched around and saw Su Ning by the large fountain in front of the manor.

I saw her sitting by the fountain, staring at something in her hand in a daze.

Qin Yan slowed down his pace and walked slowly over.

Su Ning noticed Qin Yan's pause, raised her eyes to look at him, smiled lightly, and asked, "Is dad already asleep?"

Qin Yan nodded lightly, walked directly to her side and sat down: "Well, he must be tired indeed. He may not have gotten a good rest in the past twenty years."

"In other words, I haven't had a solid night's sleep."

When Su Ning heard this, a trace of distress flashed in her eyes.

"Now that Dad is home, this will be his safe haven."

Qin Yan smiled and focused on the necklace in Su Ning's hand: "Why do you keep staring at this in a daze?"

After being asked by Qin Yan, Su Ning lowered her eyes again and looked at the necklace in her hand.

"Do you still remember what Gu Xiaoran said today?"

Su Ning paused for a moment before continuing: "She said... I am the biological daughter of the Gu family."

Of course Qin Yan remembered this sentence.

When he heard this sentence, he was also shocked.

He asked Su Ning if he wanted to help her find her real family.

Su Ning refused almost without hesitation. She said she didn't want her current life to be disrupted again.

Although he didn't help her find it, he had made some guesses in his mind.

I really didn't expect that she was actually a child of the Gu family.

Moreover, he had such involvement with the Gu family many years ago.

Therefore, fate has already arranged some things for us a long time ago.

"What she said... surprised me."

"Aside from the accident, is there nothing else?" Qin Yan asked gently.

He could tell that there were other emotions in her mind.

Su Ning stared at the necklace in her hand for a while, and then said: "Pei Jingfen came to see me before. She didn't reveal her identity at that time, but just told me that my biological parents never thought of abandoning me. But it was someone who plotted against me.”

"Even they don't know what the truth was back then."

"Then... what are your thoughts now? Have you ever thought about... getting to know them?" Qin Yan looked at her seriously.

He fully respects all her decisions in this matter.

After Su Ning thought for a few seconds, she shook her head with a slightly complicated expression: "I don't know either..."

"Gu Xiaoran is dead, and he died in front of us. I don't know what they will think, or whether they will think that I indirectly killed Gu Xiaoran."

"After all, Gu Xiaoran is also the daughter they have raised for more than [-] years. Maybe... they don't intend to recognize me."

"If that's the case, forget it."

Fate between people cannot be forced.

Some people are obviously close to you by blood, but they stand on opposite sides of the world from you as strangers.

But some people, even though they are not yours, have protected you for half your life.
