Chapter 275 Things That She Had No Control Over
Chapter 275 Things That She Had No Control Over
"First of all…" Lily held her hand to stop whatever it was that Zhuo Jingren was about to do, then she stared intently at Qin Yuanfeng in front of her. "First of all… you are one weird man."
Lily walked towards the living room and sat on the couch. She crossed her legs and smiled at Qin Yuanfeng. "Second, I am not Qin Jinghua. My name is Lily Zhuo. I am a foreigner who was raised abroad. If you think that we look the same then… it's either that you are drunk, or that you are really drunk," Lily said. She knew that their resemblance was truly uncanny. The shared last name was also a dead giveaway that they were somehow related, however, this does not mean that she would accept it right away.
Does this man expect her to hug him and have an emotional reunion with a relative? Lily was better than that. Moreover, she would not draw any conclusions or act rashly just because of an impulse and artificial emotions.
The man just stared at Lily for a while before he let out a grunt. No matter how he looked at it, this woman looked a lot like him. "I am here because I am looking for my sister. Presumably she is already dead because she has been missing for so long. I have also used all my connections to look for her. Although the probability of someone as stupid as her being alive is quiet low, I still believe that I will find her corpse one day."
"Since my wife has already told you that she is not your sister, leave now." Zhuo Jingren strode towards Lily and sat next to her. Qin Yuanfeng's words were actually true; he and Lily looked extremely similar. However, Zhuo Jingren also understood Lily's predicament.
"Hah… If you were my sister, I would never have allowed you to marry this type of man," Qin Yuanfeng commented as he struggled to retrieve something from his wallet. "Here is my card. As you can see… in China I am considered a good actor. Not the best… but I am confident enough to say that I am better than 60% of the actors there. I have not received any awards, but that is only because my mother…"
"Alright. Please leave," Lily interrupted as she accepted Qin Yuanfeng's card.
"Okay. But before I leave… can I at least have a strand of your hair? I want to perform a DNA. Maybe this will confirm that you are my long lost sister?"
"No," Lily answered before she gestured for that man to leave the apartment. If this was indeed her brother then… First of all… why does she have such a weird brother? Seeing Lily's resolute expression, Qin Yuanfeng could only shake his head in defeat. A stubborn character just like him. This woman has to be his long lost sister.
After leaving Lily's apartment, Qin Yuanfeng made sure to call his father's people to check out Lily.
"It won't take him long," Zhuo Jingren said. "He will find out soon that you are Qin Jinghua."
"Yeah… well that should be enough time for me to investigate him too," Lily answered as she closed her eyes and leaned back against the couch.
"You are not surprised?"
"At this point, nothing about my mother suprises me anymore," Lily said, exhaustion apparent in her voice. "I used to wonder why she chose her pride over my welfare," Lily let out a sigh. "I mean… she was rich. If she came back, my grandmother would have accepted her without asking any questions. So I was wondering why chose her pride over me. Then I thought… well… we all make mistakes. Maybe she miscalculated or something…" Lily paused as she ran through her justifications and assumptions about her mother before admitting in defeat, "Now… her decision is just a mystery to me."
"At this point, I would not be surprised if I discovered that my mother was the mistress of the king," she said before she let out a mocking laugh. To be honest, she didn't want to think about the things that she had no control over- like the past. She wanted to think about the things that were going to happen instead of focusing on what had already happened.
"Yeah…"Zhuo Jingren only nodded at her words. Whatever Lily discovers doesn't really matter to him. They are together and that is the most important thing for Zhuo Jingren. All he can do is support her and give her the best in everything. "Have some breakfast first then you can sleep. I will give you a massage to help you sleep better."
"Yeah… I am so tired. I don't think I can move a muscle to head to the table any more. Why don't you bring the food here so you can feed me?" Lily opened her eyes and smirked at Zhuo Jingren. Seeing the latter stand up and head towards the kitchen, she instantly moved and held his hand. "I was kidding! Why are you so serious?"
"I can feed you if you want," he answered. If Lily says that she is cold, he would gladly warm her. If she is warm he would do everything to make her feel cooler. Zhuo Jingren was really simple. All he wanted was to serve the woman that he loves.
"Henpecked." She rolled her eyes before she rose from her seat. "Let's go. I am really hungry," she said before she clutched Zhuo Jingren's hands and led him into the kitchen. The warmth that he provided in her dark world was something that she had gotten used to. All Lily wanted right now was to spend more time with him…. with her sunshine.
Seeing Lily pout while dragging him, Zhuo Jingren only shook his head and gave her a smile as he followed her.
After Lily finished her food, she instantly went to the guest room and slept while Zhuo Jingren made some calls about Zhang Yifei's connection to the man named Qin Yuanfeng, then he climbed into bed and laid beside Lily and enveloped her in his arms. A small smile of contentment could be seen on his face before he closed his eyes and hugged her tighter.
