Chapter 324
At the Fu Manor, Zhengyuan was taking care of his precious orchids in the garden after sending Siqi to
kindergarten.
Auntie Lan walked over to inform him, "Mr. Fu, Ms. Han is here."
"Han Ling?"
"Yes."
Han Ling greeted Zhengyuan when she saw him, "Hello, Uncle."
Zhengyuan looked at her kindly and asked, "How are you free to visit me today?"
"I remember that your legs have always been weak, so I asked my friend, who works with Chinese
medicine, to develop a prescription that can help."
"Really? Thank you so much! Even Lingye isn''t as thoughtful as you."
Han Ling handed the Chinese herbs to Auntie Lan and said, "Respecting our elderly is what we should
do, but it''s normal if Lingye can''t take care of these little things when he''s busy. You''d also think he''s
annoying if he keeps nagging you instead."
Zhengyuan held his walking stick andughed. "It''s cold outside, so let''s go indoors. Auntie Lan, make
a hot cup of tea for Han Ling."
"Alright, Mr. Fu."
Once they were indoors, Zhengyuan and Han Ling chatted on the couch.
Han Ling nced at the surroundings in the manor, realizing that other than Zhengyuan, no other
family members were at home.
Zhengyuan asked, "How has work been?"
"Just the usual. The clinic is running well, but my father thinks there''s not much future for psychologists
and keeps asking me to go back to help him manage thepany."
Zhengyuan nodded. "You have the ability, so you should help your father. Your father is almost the
same age as me, so he should enjoy his life more. Haven''t you thought of bringing a boyfriend back to
meet your father?"
Han Ling smiled helplessly and said, "Uncle, it''s not like you don''t know what I think."
Zhenyuan sighed. "I also thought that you would get together with Lingye previously. After all, you two
have been friends since childhood and ssmates for many years, so you know each other well. You''re
well-educated and can help Lingye in work in the future too. However, I never expected another girl to
appear. Although I didn''t really like Tongrui at first, I could tell that Lingye treated this girl differently. I
have been rushing him to get married for years, but it was useless. It was only when Tongrui appeared
that Lingye said he wanted to marry this girl. I have never seen him say he wants to marry someone so
firmly. Han Ling, it''s time for you to let go too. Otherwise, you''ll only hurt yourself."
Han Ling smiled bitterly, "Uncle Fu, how can it be that easy to let go? Although I''m still not ready to
ept someone new, I''ve long given up on Lingye. I''ve been ssmates with him for many years, so I
know he never thought of being with me."
Zhengyuan nodded. "I''m relieved that you''ve let go."
"Putting that aside… How''s Lingye and Tongrui recently?" Han Ling raised her head to look at
Zhengyuan, biting her lips slightly.
Han Ling''s questioning tone was too obvious, so Zhengyuan could tell she was not casually asking
about it. He frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Uncle Fu, could it be that… you still don''t know about it?"
"Know about what? Han Ling, what are you talking about?" Zhengyuan frowned even more and looked
at Han Ling in confusion.
Han Ling said seriously, "How can Lingye hide such a big thing from you? Uncle Fu, this is a serious
matter. Some time ago, Uncle Zhenghui asked me to test his DNA. After I tested it, I realized that the
DNAparison between Uncle Zhenghui and Tongrui shows that he''s Tongrui''s father."
Zhengyuan''s expression darkened. "What did you say?"
"Uncle Zhenghui asked me to keep it a secret, but I thought that Lingye had known about it and told
you. That''s why I… Please don''t tell anyone that I''m the one who told you about it. I''m afraid that Uncle
Zhenghui and Lingye will me me."
Zhengyuan''s hand trembled as he held his walking stick. "Is there a mistake? How can Tongrui be
Zhenghui''s daughter?"
"Uncle Fu, don''t you remember Uncle Zhenghui''s first lover was Lan Jing, Tongrui''s biological mother? I
still have Uncle Zhenghui and Tongrui''s DNA test results, so I can return to the clinic and send it to
you."
Zhengyuan''s expression darkened as he said, "Han Ling, you must keep this matter a secret. If this
matter is spread to the media, it''ll be disastrous."
Han Ling nodded and said, "Fortunately, although Lingye and Tongrui are married, the public doesn''t
know it yet."
Zhengyuan still felt uneasy. "However, the truth wille to light sooner orter. It''ll be like a ticking
time bomb that may explode anytime."
"Uncle Fu, since Lingye and Tongrui are considered cousins, what are you nning to do?"
Zhengyuan touched his forehead with a heavy expression. "Han Ling, you should go back for now. I''m
having a headache and need to think about this matter more thoroughly."
…
Zhengyuan sat in the study for around three hours without having his lunch. He had received an email
from Han Ling, and the file attached is Zhenghui and Tongrui''s DNA results. Zhengyuan looked at the
report in hesitation.
He never thought that Tongrui would be Zhenghui''s daughter… If this matter was spread, the North City
would be in chaos. However, Lingye and Tongrui are already married, so what should he do?
Thendline on the table rang, and Zhengyuan picked it up. "Hello?"
"Zhengyuan, it''s me." Zhao Xian''s voice sounded.
Zhengyuan could guess why Zhao Xian was calling, and he frowned…

…
At 2.00 pm, Tongrui finished writing her 1000-word report and sent a photo of it to Lingye. As the photo
was sent, Zhengyuan called her.
"Hello, Father."
"Tongrui, are you at home?"
Tongrui nodded. "Yes, Father. Are youing over?"
"Lingye is not at home, right?"
"No, it''s not a holiday today, so he''s at work. Father, are you looking for Lingye?"
"No, I want to meet you. I''m about to reach the Repulse Bay Vi. I need to talk to you about
something."
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Tongrui felt a little strange as Zhengyuan''s tone sounded serious. What
was the matter that made hime over personally?
