Chapter 223 - New Year Visitor

CHAPTER 223

It really was an unfortunate incident, wasn’t it?

"I know you feel responsible for it but really, you should try and let go," Li Jing advised. "None of it was ever your fault. None, so stop beating yourself up for their problems Ye Cheng, stop."

"I uh. Li Jing, it isn’t easy. I do not know how I would wipe this nightmare away?"

"Remain calm, think happy thoughts. All would be well but first, you must believe in your heart that you were not the cause of whatever they did back then."

"Okay. Thanks. I would keep that in mind."

"Good. Now, you need to get back to sleep." As Li Jing finished speaking, she pecked him on the cheek and closed his eyes with her slim hand. "Good night."

By the next day, Li Chun wasted no time in asking for some help in searching for Li Jing’s where about irrespective of all the warnings his wife gave him.

He had never intended for her to leave the house and nobody knew why till this day. So watching him behave like this was even more annoying for Ding Jiaying and Li Xiu that their only thought was to get back at Li Jing for all she had caused them.

Just when he was about to leave the house to go do some search of his own, he was greeted by an unwanted visitor.

"Master, there is a man outside that requests and audience with you," one of the maidservant informed him with a bow of her head.

"Oh, okay please send him in. I would come down in two minutes."

"Yes sir." Following his instructions, the maid did as she was told and welcomed the unannounced visitor.

Two minutes later, Mr Li was already heading downstairs, towards the main living room to welcome his first unknown visitor of the year.

A part of him wished that the visitor was not bringing with him a piece of bad news. He never wanted to start the new year with such. Having being told that Li Jing had left home was already bad news enough and now...

"Good morning, how may I be of help to you?" Li Chun asked as soon as he stepped foot into the living room.

Following his arrival, his visitor stood up to greet him as well with both men shaking their hands. "Good morning. My name is Lin Ziang."

"Welcome. Happy new year."

"Thank you, happy new year," Lin Zhian appreciated him too.

"Please have your seat." Li Chun was trying his possible best to be a good host. But even after minutes of meeting him and hearing his name, he still could not picture where he knew him but he seemed awfully familiar.

"I am sorry but please have we met somewhere before and what can I do you for?"

"Oh my apologies. Well, I am here to meet the family who raised my granddaughter for me."

Li Chun was even more confused than before. He did not know this man but here he was coming to thank him but the words he said just now had struck a cho0rd in his heart.

’Wait a minute, does he mean Li Jing?’ Li Chun asked himself.

"I believe what I am trying to say is that I am Li Jing’s biological grandfather."

GBAGHAN!!

’No wonder. I bet he made Li Jing leave. Now it all makes sense.’ Li Chun thought to himself.

"So, that is why I am here today, Mr Li."

Li Chun blinked thrice as he got himself back from his thoughts. "Oh my, wow. Please have your seat, sir."

"Thanks." Both men sat down and stared at each other. No one spoke, each having their own thoughts cloud their minds.

For Mr Lin Zian, he was busy accessing the house with his eyes, taking note of somethings. ’So this is where my grandchild grew up, not bad. It is manageable."

Compare to his wealth, the Li family business was barely standing and if Li Jing’s mother had remained, then she would have grown up in luxury.

"Ahem!" L Chun cleared his throat, catching the attention of the elderly man. "Pardon me though, but how did you find her and how did you know that she is your granddaughter?"

"Well, it is funny though. I have been searching for herself and her mother for years now but there was no hope in finding them. Apparently, I had almost given up hope until one day when I saw a picture of her on TV and she was wearing my family’s heirloom."

"What heirloom?" Li Chun interjected.

His mind was already nagging him before he could confirm what he needed to confirm.

"The necklace she wears on her neck."

"The one with the blue pearl?"

"Yes, that very one." Not knowing what to say anymore, Li Chun swallowed his saliva and waited for Mr Lin Zian to continue.

For the first time since he returned Li Jing’s necklace to her, Li Chun started regretting that singular act.

"A DNA test was carried out and the results are here. You can check them yourself. It proves she is my granddaughter."

"Let me have a look please." Mr Lin stood up and handed over the DNA test results, Tang Zixin sent to him.

With shaky hands, Li Chun tried himself to brace up and await the inevitable. By the time he brought out the result from the envelope, his eyes widened in shock but as quickly as it came, he hid it.

It was no wonder, he had known that Mr Lin was familiar. He had a resemblance to Li Jing.

A minute and some seconds later, he kept the result back in the envelope and showed it to Mr Lin. "Okay, but DNA results could be falsified. How then am I sure that this is not a fake DNA test result?"

Yes, he had a point... but to what end?

"Even as that is true, but what do I stand to gain, Mr Li?"
