The Rest of My Life

In other words, Shen Fang and my mother are not siblings?

I never thought it would be like this.

No wonder Shen Fang disliked me from the start and didn't welcome me back to the Shen family.

Since I was not his niece, he naturally did not care about me.

But then, I recalled that when Shen Zixian tested my DNA, he firmly believed that I was his cousin …

What was the reason?

Just as I was wondering, Zhou Xun suddenly took my hand.

His hands were thick and warm.

I looked up and met his gaze.

He looked at me gently. "What are you thinking about?"

I shook my head, confused, unable to make sense of it.

Zhou Ning seemed to have seen through my shock and explained, "The side branch of the Shen family has a very tight mouth. I secretly asked someone, but they didn't get anything out of me. Later on, he found out about this matter from an old servant who was chased out by Shen Fang back then. "But since there is no evidence to prove that the old servant's words are true, I thought that it was a serious matter, so I hurried over to report it. I haven't verified it yet."

It turned out that he had heard it from an old servant.

I thought back to how those other grandmothers of the Shen family had behaved when they saw me. Perhaps … This matter is not false...

As he was pondering, he suddenly heard Zhou Xun ask, "Why was that old servant chased away?"

Zhou Ning quickly replied: "He said he was slandered and stole something. I guess he probably knew some secret and was sent away by Shen Fang."

Zhou Xun was deep in thought.

I thought for a moment and asked, "But at that time, Shen Zixian checked my DNA …"

Zhou Xun muttered to himself irresolutely, "I remember him taking out the DNA of you and your grandfather back then."

I recalled that he was right.

Does this mean... Shen Zixian actually knows that I'm not related to him by blood?

Otherwise he should have tested me and his DNA.

Zhou Xun glanced at me, probably seeing that I was suspecting Shen Zixian, he said in a low voice: "From the looks of it, he doesn't seem to know anything."

I hummed, thinking that I should find a chance to test Shen Zixian.

Zhou Ning continued, "We also found out that when your mother went missing, the Shen family went through a huge blood transformation and many of the other branches were sent abroad."

Then he told me what they had found out.

Fifty-five years ago, Shen Fang was a newborn baby who was adopted by my grandparents. At that time, my grandparents were already in their thirties and were unable to have children, so they raised him through friends. At that time, my grandparents claimed that Shen Fang was his biological father, so not many people knew of his true origins.

Later, when Shen Fang was twelve years old, my grandmother suddenly became pregnant with my mother. Everyone thought that Shen Fang and my mother were siblings.

No wonder even Grandpa Zhou didn't know what happened that year.

However … If Shen Fang was raised as a baby, he shouldn't have known about his past.

But his attitude toward me, why did it make me think he knew?

After I finished listening, I couldn't help but ask, "Did you check on Shen Fang's real parents?"

Zhou Ning shook his head and said: "I heard that Shen Fang came from a remote mountain. No one knows his background, and no one knows anything about his parents."

I frowned.

I don't know why, but I have a feeling it won't be that simple.

Perhaps … Shen Fang already knew of his own background, and even contacted his biological parents …

I just feel that the more I look down, the more misty and dangerous my mother's life became.

As he was thinking, Zhou Xun gently scratched my palm. With a gentle voice, he said, "Don't be afraid. You still have me."

My heart was warm, and I smiled at him.

After reporting, Zhou Ning left, leaving me with him in the study room.

I looked at his handsome face, then out the window.

The bright spring sun outside seemed to be telling the truth about everything.

I whispered, "I must investigate this matter thoroughly."

Zhou Xun acknowledged and said gently, "I will help you."

My eyes ached slightly as I whispered, "Uncle Zhou, thank you …"

Zhou Xun caressed my face. "Idiot, there's no need to stand on ceremony with me."

I smiled wryly to myself.

He had clearly planned to separate from him, and had made up his mind not to trouble him any further. However, every time something happened, he would still have to borrow his power.

It made me feel guilty and helpless.

I could only shamelessly think that if anything happened to him in the future, I would do everything in my power to help him.

After that, I went to the backyard, but I didn't seem to be paying attention.

Fortunately, everyone thought I was tired easily because I was pregnant and didn't notice my abnormality.

Zhou Xun could see through it, but he didn't blame me. Instead, he let Rui Rui accompany me and make me happy.

Listening to Rui Rui's childish voice, my mood had improved quite a bit.

Halfway there, I saw a friend circle sent by the creek.

I thought about it and sent her a message asking why she hadn't come.

She replied quickly, saying that she was going to Vancouver to greet her grandfather and would come back to play with me next time.

I could feel her depression and I wanted to ask her how they were, but in the end I didn't.

It was mainly because he was afraid that she would feel sad.

However, after the barbecue ended and Zhou Xun and the rest left, I couldn't help but sneak to Wen Chu's side and ask in a low voice, "You and Fang Yi Shi …" Is that true? "

Wen Chu seemed to be surprised that I would ask about his private affairs. He looked at me for a while, then said with a smile, "Third sister, are you planning to sell gossip to Doggie?"

I knew he was avoiding the subject, staring at him in silence.

He also looked straight at me and said, "Did the creek ask you to come and ask?"

I shook my head. "No, I'm just curious."

He smiled and said, "Sorry, Third Sister, I don't want to talk about this."

I stammered, "I was rude …"

It was mainly because I didn't know him that well and asking him about his personal matters was never polite, so after apologizing, I didn't pursue the matter further.

After they had left, Zhou Xun gently put his arm around my shoulders and said, "A'Chu isn't that kind of fool. Don't worry."

I nodded.

Emotions were truly something that outsiders could not say. They could only hope that the stream could be blissful even if it left the beginning of Warming.

The next day, Zhou Xun took me back to the Shen family.

Grandpa Zhou knew that I was planning to stay in the Shen family for the time being. Not only did he not object, he even warned me to rest well and not think too much about other matters.

I was touched, and whispered to Zhou Xun how good Grandpa was.

Zhou Xun glanced at me and said with a smile, "He's also your grandfather."

I couldn't help but laugh.

If it weren't for all sorts of reasons, marrying Zhou Xun could be considered my happiness.

Arriving at the Shen household, the moment she entered, she met Shen Zi Ruo's ferocious gaze. She did not try to conceal her hostility and hatred.

Naturally, I didn't care. I just pretended that I didn't see it.

Shen Fang had a satisfied expression on his face upon seeing that Zhou Xun had brought me back. He welcomed me with a face full of smiles.

Then he called Zhou Xun to his study.

I'm a little worried.

Zhou Xun shook his head at me, indicating that he was fine.

I stayed in the living room.

It just so happened that at this time, Shen Mother and Shen Zixian were not around, leaving Shen Zi and I alone in the same room.

Shen Zi Ruo raised her chin and sneered: "Cousin, didn't you say you were going to divorce your brother-in-law?"

I replied, "Yes …" But your brother-in-law kept apologizing to me. He was very sincere, and I was hesitating whether I should forgive him or not. "

Of course this is to provoke Shen Zixian.

Sure enough, her cheeks puffed up and she angrily said, "You …" You are shameless! "

I smiled.

Let her think that Zhou Xun only has me in his heart, this should be enough to dispel her coveting for him.
