Chapter 692: Truth and Lies 12
Xia Chuxue was really annoyed at herself. She had made sure the room was free of cameras and bugs before calling.How could she not have thought that someone was standing outside the door?
But now, what’s done was done; what could she do?
"For the sake of the Feng Family’s future, it’s necessary for me to take you for another DNA test myself."
The words had barely left his lips when Feng Yifan took Xia Chuxue’s hand, looking as though he was about to take her to the hospital.
"Don’t!" Xia Chuxue was frightened out of her wits and immediately looked up at the man before her.
If the truth was exposed, as a girl without any backing, could she still be on the run? She would most likely end up dead on the streets!
"Don’t want to?" Feng Yifan raised his eyebrows. "Why not?"
Xia Chuxue looked at him, her body stiff, unable to utter a single word.
As her heart was about to burst from anxiety, the corners of the man’s mouth lifted once again.
"Actually, I’m not very interested in this sister of mine. It doesn’t matter to me whether she comes back or not. Perhaps this Young Master would prefer it if she didn’t."
The intriguing smile on Feng Yifan’s face made Xia Chuxue even more nervous.
But she quickly caught on, seemingly seeing a different kind of hope.
"Young Master Yifan, Chuxue doesn’t understand what you mean?"
Did he mean that he didn’t mind whoever took the role of Lady Sun of the Feng Family?
"Do you... really want to stay?" Feng Yifan looked down, leaning closer to Xia Chuxue.
"Mhm."
Xia Chuxue looked up at him, biting her lip and nodding slightly.
Since the truth could no longer be concealed, she didn’t mind submitting to someone else.
Seventh Young Master could never be her support; he never was. She was nothing more than a pawn being used by him.
Of course, Xia Chuxue wouldn’t be so foolish. Now that she was here, she had no intention of leaving again.
"Young Master Yifan, I’m just a woman with a hard life, why must you make things difficult for me?"
Xia Chuxue leaned in, pressing her body close against his.
At some point, the two had returned to the room.
The door was locked, and Xia Chuxue’s hand was boldly placed on his collar, her fingers teasing his shirt buttons with intent.
Beauty – she always had it, and the man before her certainly looked the part.
A child of the Feng Family, although not as handsome as Feng Yan, but still quite good-looking.
"Young Master Yifan, since you don’t care who comes back, then rather than having a Lady Sun who would fight with you for the inheritance, wouldn’t you prefer a little lady who’s willing to share weal and woe, to think as you do? Don’t you think?"
Feng Yifan half-closed his eyes, looking down at her, his thin lips once again curling into a smile: "We’ll have to see if this little lady truly can think as I do."
...
In the kitchen, Xia Yinian held a cellphone in one hand and a pot shovel in the other.
She stared at the fish in the bowl, unsure how much time had passed, still unable to make a move.
The man who had just come down from cleaning up after digging lotus roots and dirtying his clothes was under the impression that dinner was almost ready.
Thinking of the cozy scene in the kitchen, Gu Beicheng had forgotten the mess from earlier.
Unexpectedly, before even reaching the kitchen, he had already smelled something burning.
Gu Beicheng’s eyebrows knit together lightly, as he quickly pushed open the kitchen door.
He didn’t see the cozy scene he had expected; instead, smoke was billowing inside.
The moment he opened the door, the girl inside screamed...
