In Si Xia's concept.

She has no family background, no connections, and compared to the Zhan Jiu Banquet, it is simply a heaven and an underground.

The reason why Zhan Jiuyan would sign that kind of agreement was because he had scruples, afraid that his original family would drag him down.

Another reason why Si Xia didn't want Zhan Jiuyan to meet his father was that he was worried that Zhan Jiuyan was cold and cold by nature.

She was afraid that she would treat her father with the attitude of the old man and the old lady.

She was afraid that her father would not accept it.

Zhan Jiuyan looked at Si Xia's flickering gaze and immediately reacted.

He didn't beat around the bush, "Are you worried that I will look down on your family?" ”

Si Xia didn't expect him to speak so directly, and he didn't know how to react all of a sudden.

Zhan Jiuyan's eyes were cold, "So I am this kind of person in your eyes?" ”

Si Xia hurriedly shook his head, "That's not what I meant. ”

Sometimes, the more people lack something, the more they care about something.

Because since he was a child, his father has always lived in his mother's white eyes and disgust.

Si Xia knew how much he craved respect.

Somewhere deep in her heart, she also hopes that Zhan Jiuyan can leave a perfect image in her father's heart, which can be recognized and liked by her father.

Now, it's not the time.

Especially after Gu Xinmei had just made a big fuss, the appearance of the Zhan Jiu Banquet would only make this war more chaotic.

Seeing that Si Xia's expression was heavy, Zhan Jiuyan did not continue to dwell on this matter.

"Have you had dinner?"

Seeing Zhan Jiuyan speak like this, Si Xia knew that he would not continue to dwell on this matter, "I'm not hungry. ”

"That's not eating?" Zhan Jiuyan's tone was unquestionable, "Accompany me for a meal." ”

"But my dad ......"

"Lu Ran will greet the nurse."

Since he said so, Si Xia didn't bother anymore and went out with him obediently.

Zhan Jiuyan picked a more high-grade Chinese restaurant nearby and ordered a few dishes.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, but three of the four dishes are Si Xia's favorite dishes.

"Eat."

Si Xia nodded and began to feast.

But halfway through eating, she found that Zhan Jiu Yan didn't use chopsticks much, "Master Jiu, doesn't it suit your appetite?" ”

Zhan Jiuyan looked at her elegantly and coldly, "I've eaten it." ”

“……”

It turns out that these dishes were really ordered for her.

Si Xia blinked his eyes, and a warmth rose inexplicably in his heart.

I really didn't expect that this big iceberg would have such a gentle and considerate side.

But the more he treats her like this, the more entangled her heart becomes.

This marriage, is she divorced, or not?

Jingle bells, jingle bells!

A crisp ringing bell interrupted her thoughts.

Si Xia looked up and saw Zhan Jiuyan pick up the phone.

He replied in a low voice, and his face changed, "See you in twenty minutes." ”

Si Xia hurriedly put down his chopsticks, "If you are in a hurry, let's go first, it's okay for me to be alone." ”

Zhan Jiuyan hesitated, nodded, and turned to leave.

At the door of the restaurant, the black Rolls-Royce was waiting there.

Zhan Jiuyan was pushed into the car by the driver.

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of the Luk Group Building.

Lu Ran seemed to have been waiting at the door for a while.

As soon as he saw Zhan Jiuyan appear, he immediately walked over, "Master Jiu." ”

Zhan Jiuyan nodded, "What about Changsu?" ”

"Lu Dashao is in the office, and his subordinates will send you up now."

"Hmm."

***

When Lu Ran pushed Zhan Jiuyan into the office, Lu Changsu was frowning and looking at a few photos in his hand.

Zhan Jiuyan was the first to speak, "You called me over in such a hurry, did you find something?" ”

Lu Changsu frowned and walked from behind his desk to the hospitality area, "Look at these photos." ”

Zhan Jiuyan took the photo.

When he saw the two people in the photo, his pupils shook slightly, "Where did you get this photo?" ”

It was none other than Si Chenggang and Gu Xinmei in the photo.

It can be seen from the scenes they took that these photos should have been taken when the Civil Affairs Bureau received the certificate.

However, in the photo, Gu Xinmei's expression was very indifferent and very reluctant.

And, the strangest thing is that Gu Xinmei's belly in the photo looks seven or eight months old.

Lu Changsu stretched out his finger and pointed to the electronic calendar behind the Civil Affairs Bureau, "Two months after they received their certificates, it happened to be the day Lu Xueyan was born." ”

In other words, Si Chenggang knew that Gu Xinmei was pregnant with someone else's child, but he still chose to marry her? Later, the two of them had Si Xia? Zhan Jiuyan furrowed his brows.

Gu Xinmei was indeed beautiful and moving at that time.

If Si Chenggang is thrown into ordinary people, he is indeed handsome.

can stand with Gu Xinmei, whether it is temperament or appearance, it is obviously a little worse.

Lu Changsu looked at the photo coldly, "Gu Xinmei is scheming, 'enduring humiliation and burden' for so many years, just to let Lu Xueyan recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors and become a master." Presumably, Si Chenggang was a pick-up man for her single pregnancy. ”

"I investigated, when Si Xia was in junior high school, Gu Xinmei found a way to contact my father again. The two of them secretly intertwined for less than a month, and she left Si Chenggang and went to Los Angeles. ”

"My father gave her a home over there and gave her a lot of money. She began to contact the rich circle over there, and cultivated Lu Xueyan as a celebrity lady, my father should be very satisfied, so he took the opportunity of the birthday banquet to let her recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors. ”

"I have to say that my father has done a good job of secrecy, and even I haven't heard a word about it all these years. That's why I was caught off guard this time. ”

When Lu Changsu said these words, his eyes were contemptuous and very mocking.

Zhan Jiuyan had a calm and handsome face, and he didn't say anything for a while.

No wonder Si Xia's reaction was so excited that day, and his emotions collapsed like that.

It turned out that Lu Xueyan was really her half-sister.

After Zhan Jiuyan was silent for a moment, he looked up at Lu Ran.

Sure enough, I met his somewhat tangled eyes.

His eyes narrowed dangerously, "Lu Ran, what Changsu can investigate, you shouldn't be unable to find out, why didn't you report it to me?" ”

Lu Ran's heart skipped a beat, "...... Because the subordinates found out something else. ”

"What's the matter?"

Lu Ran hesitated for a moment, but finally took out the phone and opened the photo album, "Subordinate...... In the course of the investigation, the subordinates found that four years ago, the young lady was in the Women's and Children's Hospital...... There is a record of prenatal check-ups. ”

"What did you say?"

When Zhan Jiuyan heard this, his face changed.

He snatched his phone away.

In the album, there are pregnancy test records taken by Lu Ran.

From the beginning of three months to nine months, there was not a single prenatal examination missed in between-
