“Are you crazy?” Yun Nan muttered. He was the one who kissed her, but he’s acting as if she was the one at fault. ‘How is that reasonable? Yun Nan inwardly griped. ‘He didn’t even give me the right to pursue the matter.’

Yun Nan finally managed to organize her panicked thoughts and was about to go on the offensive when Shi Nian suddenly asked, “Do you think there’s a high chance that Hai Hua’s aunt is your mother’s biological mother?”

‘Hmm? The conversation topic changed so quickly that Yun Nan almost couldn’t keep up. However, Yun Nan immediately became nervous at the mention of this matter.

“What do you think the probability of two unrelated people looking alike is?” Shi Nian asked again.

Yun Nan shook her head blankly. Shi Nian continued, “If the two really are mother and daughter, won’t Hai Hua’s aunt be quite sad? She finally found her daughter, but she’d already passed away. Won’t that be too much of a blow to the old lady?”

Yun Nan was dumbfounded. She had indeed not considered that problem. Shi

Nian muttered to himself, “That won’t do. We have to call a reliable doctor over. We don’t want anything bad to happen.”

Yun Nan became even more anxious when she heard that and hurriedly said, “There’s a small hospital in town. I’ll get Auntie Zhang to invite the doctor over tomorrow.”

Shi Nian nodded. “Good, it’s better to be safe than sorry.”

Yun Nan was a little uneasy. The problem that Shi Nian mentioned was indeed a big issue. Shi Nian felt slightly bad—he only wanted to divert Yun Nan’s attention, not worry her.

He’d felt a little nervous because he had acted rashly in a moment of passion. He used that desperate excuse to distract Yun Nan because he worried she would be angry at his actions.

Shi Nian felt slightly guilty about taking advantage of the situation, but only slightly. Yun Nan, that silly girl, was too obtuse when it came to relationships. Perhaps it was because her adoptive parents had too much influence on her that her understanding of relationships was simple and pure.

Shi Nian racked his brains and came up with an idea. “Why don’t you make some of your mother’s favorite snacks? Then, when Hai Hua’s aunt and uncle come, they can have a taste; you can also count it as entertaining them on behalf of your mother. No matter what the outcome is, you’ll have shown them a token of appreciation in your mother’s place. What do you think?”

Yun Nan’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “That’s a great idea! I’ll make Mom’s specialties and her favorites. Regardless of whether they’re my mother’s parents or not, at least I’ll have shown them a token of my mother’s gratitude for coming.”

That said, Yun Nan immediately acted. Shi Nian secretly heaved a sigh of relief and followed behind Yun Nan to help her. He knew Yun Nan couldn’t sleep with how high-strung she was, but she wouldn’t have to wait agonizingly if she had some things to do.

Shi Nian had found that Yun Nan could easily be immersed in one thing with astonishing single-mindedness. It was indeed not a coincidence that she could achieve such impressive results at such a young age. Looking at Yun Nan’s busy figure, Shi Nian was once again extremely happy that he could be so lucky as to have her as his wife.

The White City’s Gu family lived not too far from the old town. Shi Nian and Yun Nan heard Hai Hua mention, by chance, during breakfast that her aunt’s husband was the second son of the Gu family’s main branch, Gu Bei, which means her aunt, Chen Yao, was the second madam of the Gu family.

Yun Nan and the others shared looks. ‘ Was this world really that small? was their collective thought.

Hai Hua looked at them in confusion. “What is it? Is there something wrong?”

Shi Nian rubbed his nose and told them, “You guys probably don’t know much about White City’s Gu family. The Gu family’s main branch had two sons in the previous generation; the eldest son inherited the family business, and the other son was a university teacher. That university teacher was also Hai Hua’s uncle, Gu Bei.”

Shi Xiu frowned. “Is he Gu Fei’s uncle?”

Shi Nian shook his head. “No. Gu Fei’s grandfather is the eldest son I was talking about, Gu Nan. Hai Hua’s uncle is Gu Fei’s great-uncle.”

Hai Hua was surprised. “Shi Xiu, you know Gu Fei?” she asked.

Shi Xiu’s face fell. Seeing that Shi Xiu wasn’t keen on answering her question,

Hai Hua looked at Shi Nian, and Shi Nian glanced at his sister before saying,

“Gu Fei and Shi Xiu were betrothed to each other when they were kids.”

Hai Hua was shocked. “I didn’t know that. I have some business dealings with the Gu family’s main branch, but I don’t know much about their family affairs.

The most I’ve heard of them over the years was about my missing cousin.”

Shi Xiu smiled wryly. “Even I, the party involved, didn’t know about it, let alone you! If the Gu family hadn’t suddenly appeared and made a grand visit to my house to discuss our marriage, I reckon my relatives wouldn’t have remembered it, either.”

She grumbled, “This is all Grandpa’s fault. When we were kids, he used our lifelong happiness to repay favors. First, it was my brother, Shi Nian, and now, me! He betrothed Shi Nian to the Yun family’s daughter back then. If Shi Nian hadn’t stood firm and Yun Nan had returned to the Yun family, my brother would’ve been pestered to death by that Yun Liu.. When Grandpa returns, I’ll definitely make him pay heavily for this! “
