Chapter 263 How will she explain this to Gu Qingwen?
The enormous mansion was incredibly tranquil.
From the entryway, to the stairs leading upstairs, and then to the bedroom.
Clothes were scattered all over the road.
An Ying stretched her hand out from under the covers, her fair fingertips brushing against his high, straight nose.
Fingertips downwards.
It grazed his thin lips.
An Ying nestled reluctantly in Fu Chengli's arms.
This time, An Ying felt very differently.
Fu Chengli has an abnormally strong possessive nature.
Unlike the previous time, it wasn't rough or forceful.
He clung to her tightly from beginning to end, as if he didn't want to let go for even a moment.
He needs her.
again and again.
They stayed up until they were both exhausted and fell asleep.
An Ying gently propped herself up on her elbows, lowered her head, and kissed the corner of his lips.
Then she turned to her side and got out of bed.
She picked up the scattered clothes from the ground and put them on one by one.
I grabbed my phone and keys and quietly went out.
She didn't plan to go anywhere far.
Instead of pressing the elevator button, they pushed open the emergency exit on one side.
She went downstairs and headed straight for the apartment she used to live in.
Before going to Yecheng, she planned to move out of this house.
After a series of events in Yecheng, the move was repeatedly postponed.
After returning to Beicheng, Fu Chengli pestered her every day, wanting to marry her and move in with her.
The house and the old things inside have just been left untouched, with no time to tidy them up.
The house ultimately belongs to Yin Mei.
Her affair with Fu Chengli has now become known to both families.
It's not just two companies; I bet the whole company knows.
Even the entire northern part of the city knew about it.
At the height of the controversy, she didn't want to cause any more trouble, or be discovered occupying Fu Chengli's mother's house, and to rush into premarital cohabitation before the marriage was even finalized.
This will only worsen an already troubled relationship.
Things that need to be tidied up will need to be tidied up sooner or later.
After unlocking the door and entering the familiar room, An Ying began to unpack her things.
After she moves out, I'll find an opportunity to properly thank Aunt Yin.
It's a waste that she's been living here for so long.
She had tried to pay Yin Mei's rent.
The next day, the rent was fully refunded to the bank card.
An Ying looked at the money that had been returned and was worried about what to do.
Yin Mei sent her a message: "I don't need your money. You can stay if you want. What I need is a lovely daughter-in-law like you. How about I keep you here as a wife for my son as payment for the rent?"
At that time, An Ying did have the thought of marrying Fu Chengli.
She interacted with him cautiously, always mindful of the harsh living conditions she would face in the Fu family in the future.
She backed out.
Until Fu Chengli presented the diamond ring.
He told her firmly that he wanted to marry her.
Her heart, which had been so cautious about love, was rekindled with hope.
Now she recalls what Gu Qingwen said in the coffee shop.
This glimmer of hope was extinguished once again.
Love is so difficult.
An Ying felt caught in a dilemma.
She picked up her phone and sent Ye a message.
"Sorry, baby, I can't have dinner with you today."
About ten seconds later, Ye Rao's phone rang.
An Ying answered the call, pressed the speakerphone button, put the phone aside, and talked to Ye Rao while tidying her clothes.
After the call connected, An Ying lazily said "hello".
Ye Rao keenly sensed that something was wrong.
She put down the file in her hand, twirling her pen lightly between her fingers, and asked, "What's wrong? Are you still in the coffee shop?"
An Ying replied, "I went back a long time ago."
Ye Rao: "I thought so too. Several hours have passed, and I was still wondering why you hadn't made a sound."
An Ying's cheeks felt slightly warm.
It had been a long time since I left the coffee shop, and for the next few hours I was taken home by Fu Chengli to do other things.
Unable to see An Ying's flushed face, Ye Rao asked to herself, "I just did a lot of research. Gu's Group might be making some big moves in Beicheng recently. I'm guessing they want to poach you?"
An Ying shook her head: "Do you remember when we were kids, living in the southern part of the city, we heard about the Gu family's secret gossip?"
Ye Rao nodded: "I remember, it was said that the Gu family lost a little princess, and the Gu family went out of their way to search for her. At that time, there were many people pretending to be the young lady, which caused a lot of jokes. I even encouraged you to go, but you were afraid of being embarrassed and didn't dare to go, hahaha."
An Ying said softly, "Gu Qingwen said that I might be his long-lost sister."
The pen that Ye Rao was twirling in her fingers suddenly fell to the ground with a snap.
Her eyes widened, and after a long while, she finally managed to utter a soft "ah" from her throat.
"You, he, he's just joking with you, right...?"
An Ying: "His expression didn't seem like he was joking."
Ye Rao: "Where's the evidence?"
An Ying: "Do you remember the key my adoptive mother left me before she passed away? Gu Qingwen said it was a family heirloom key, and there was only one in the world. When I was hospitalized in Yecheng, I ran into his daughter, Gu Hexi."
"After I saw her key, I casually mentioned that I had one too, and Gu Qingwen probably found out through his daughter."
“He followed the clues to Beicheng and then to me. He said that the key on his daughter was a replica, and the only real key was with his long-lost sister, which I happened to have.”
Ye Rao blinked hard.
Her best friend, who is as close as a sister, might be a long-lost heiress from a wealthy family...
Ye Rao jumped up from her chair.
She said excitedly, "An Ying, you have to make sure about this! We can't be careless!"
An Ying was bewildered: "Why are you suddenly so agitated?"
Ye Rao: "Do you know how rich the Gu family is? After her father passed away, Gu Qingwen took over as chairman and propelled the Gu family's development to a new level. Being a daughter in such a wealthy family is something many people dream of!"
"Think about all the humiliation you've suffered at An Weiping's hands over the years. He's such a snob, he's always looked down on you, humph!"
"You turn around and dump that trashy father of his, throw yourself into the arms of the Gu family, enjoy wealth and luxury, and slap him in the face!"
An Ying sighed, "You have to keep this a secret. We still don't know what happened. My mom just left this key with me. What if she found it somewhere, or someone gave it to her..."
Ye Rao: "Then you should get a DNA test done right away! Make sure this is confirmed..."
An Ying lowered her head and whispered, "If, assuming I really am Gu Qingwen's biological sister, he would definitely take me back to Nancheng and leave this place, too..."
Her voice was a little hoarse.
"She will also leave Fu Chengli."
Ye Rao's excited expression suddenly froze.
"Well, this... um..."
Ye Rao remained silent on the other end of the phone.
An Ying remained silent. She stood up from the edge of the bed, walked into the dressing room, and picked up the storage box.
She looked down and searched for a while.
My mood gradually calmed down.
Why can't she see the key her adoptive mother left her?
She turned the storage box upside down.
Everything in the storage box spilled out.
She lowered her head and searched carefully.
No.
An Ying began searching every corner of the walk-in closet.
still none.
There isn't one anywhere.
The key is gone.
An Ying stood there, stunned.
She so confidently told Gu Qingwen that she had the key...
The key is now missing.
That's a family heirloom of the Gu family, priceless.
If she loses it...
How will she explain this to Gu Qingwen?
Without even such an important token, how could she possibly have the nerve to go through with a DNA test with him?
He doesn't think An Ying is like those girls pretending to be rich girls, here to scam people, does he?
