Chapter 2034: Your Long Lost Daughter
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“The s.h.i.+ family is the kind of family very willing to go all out. I’m worried that if you make Lan Weisong suffer, they’ll go against the Nangong family or Chi Yang. After all, you’re Chi Yang’s fiancée. If you did something and Chi Yang didn’t stop you, they may want to go after him.”
This was Nangong Nuannuan’s first time meeting Wu Jingzhong, and he was already clearly trying to look out for her. This made his upstanding character very clear.
He would rather suffer losses and continue to be treated unfairly than let someone else face injustice. Nuannuan was a friend that the Wu family had acknowledged, so he would certainly treat her with sincerity.
Nuannuan was not the only one thinking this. Chi Yang admired Wu Jingzhong too.
A poor person could only strive to be good-willed, but someone successful has the capacity to further help the world. Putting aside the governor of Sea District, many celebrities donated to charity and helped the poor to improve their reputation and acc.u.mulate good karma.
Even when faced with losing his position as an official and with a prison sentence, Wu Jingzhong could still think about the safety of the person who had helped him. That was proof of his genuine personality. He was definitely someone worth befriending.
After Wu Jingzhong finished speaking, he looked at his father with some disapproval. Elder Wu knew exactly what he was going to say.
“Kid, I raised you! I molded how you think. How could I possibly not have already considered the things that you’re thinking about now?”
“Then…”
“Don’t worry. Nuannuan is very capable. I’ll explain to you in detail when we get back.”
Upon hearing his father’s words, even though Wu Jingzhong did not know the full extent of Nuannuan’s capabilities, he was relieved. He smiled and responded, “Alright. I haven’t eaten yet, so let’s go back and have a good meal. Then we can take our time to discuss this.”
“Alright, alright. Let’s go.”
After dealing with his eldest son’s doubts, Elder Wu forgot about Sze Lingyun.
Wu Pingting and Wu Zongyang supported one of Wu Jingzhong’s arms each. Just as he was about to leave, his gaze fell on Sze Lingyun.
The moment he saw Sze Lingyun’s face, Wu Jingzhong felt as if his entire body had been struck by lightning. His eyes widened, and he trembled with excitement.
“Y-you’re…”
He needed to know who this girl before him was. She looked so similar to the girl whom he had kept in his heart for the last 22 years.
She was standing there quietly, like a beautiful painting. Like the picture of the beautiful lady in that ancient place. Just her standing casually was already so captivating.
Even though this girl only resembled the person Wu Jingzhong knew by about 50% or 60%, the aura they both gave off was the exact same.
More importantly, besides half-resembling the woman he knew, this girl also looked very similar to him!
Seeing this girl, Wu Jingzhong’s heart could not help but ache.
He could not understand why his heart ached, but he did not know how to stop it.
There was a lump in his throat. A surge of ecstasy and interest made him open his mouth, but no words came out.
He was afraid that if he asked, he would learn that what he was thinking was not the case. That would absolutely crush him!
Seeing how excited Wu Jingzhong was when he noticed Sze Lingyun, Elder Wu was now sure that Sze Lingyun was undoubtedly his biological granddaughter.
“Right, right. Just now, when I thanked Nuannuan, I forgot to mention one more thing. Nuannuan’s also helped you find your long-lost daughter!”
Wu Jingzhong was speechless.
