<h4>263 Bizzare Things</h4>
Dn read the information disyed on his phone screen with a baffling expression and took another look at Yan Ying again. The slender girl with beautiful features looked like a pampered princess from whichever angle one looked at her. And he wouldn''t doubt it either that she had been pampered all her life being the sole heir to an oil Empire of her family.
But then why did the information he was looking at said that she was...
"Ms. Yan, are you an archaeologist?" asked Dn with aplicated expression. He might not know much about archaeology but he had heard enough to know that archaeologists had a very tough and even sometimes dangerous job.
Yan Ying raised her brow at Dn and retorted, "You didn''t know that?"
Her words confirmed Dn that she was indeed an archaeologist but why was it so hard to believe? Why would she leave her life of luxury to go after something so dangerous? No wonder her skin was a bit tanned from the excess exposure to the sun.
"Dn is a bit slow in learning some things," said Ah-Si as he stared at Dn''splicated expressions. He could imagine what Dn''s internal conflict was all about. After all, it wasn''t every day that you''d know that an heiress to the billion-dor empire was actually running around going to excavation sites and getting her hands dirty with mud.
Dn didn''t mind Ah-Si''s words at all. Since it was true that at this moment, his feelings were reallyplicated while his mind was trying to process this information very slowly.
He suddenly had an urge to ask, "Why?" he looked at Yan Ying and continued, "Why did you choose this field?"
Yan Ying wasn''t expecting such a question from Dn. "Perhaps, I was too fascinated by human history. And more I got involved in excavations, the more I got intrigued with those artifacts that seem to take you on a trip back in time."
Dn listened to her exnation attentively before saying, "I read a book where an archaeologist found a mirror that could take him to another world. Did you find something mythical like that?"
Dn''s question seemed like he had intelligence of a five-year-old and even though Ah-Siughed at his question, Yan Ying didn''t. She simply answered, "I''ll suggest you stop reading fantasy novels. Although this world has a lot of mysteries, it doesn''t mean you should believe in everything."
Dn nodded his head in agreement as he said, "That means the person who ims to have been reincarnated, is actually making a fool of me, right? Because such bizarre things don''t happen in this world."
Yan Ying supported her chin on her hand as she blinked at Dn, "The things we don''t wanna ept, we end up calling them bizarre. The question is not that it''s bizarre or not. The fact is that your mind knows the truth but you don''t want to ept it and that''s why you im it to be merely a bizarre thing." Her answer stunned Dn for a moment. He knew he had every reason to believe in Xiu''s words and yet he had no reason at all. It was tricky. So tricky that he was going crazy. "By the way, did someone really is trying to fool you by saying that?"
Dn was startled as heughed it off, "Nah! I was just curious to know. That''s all. Also, sorry for taking your time. We had rarely met so I didn''t know much about you."
Yan Ying observed his body movements and expressions carefully before nodding her head. Then she suddenly said, "Well, Dn, I also don''t know much about you. I had been mostly out of the country these years. Thest time I heard of you it was that you''re a crazy fan of a celebrity. And now, I heard that you have be a flower boy. Quite adies man you''ve turned out to be."
"Flower boy?" Dn quirked his brow at her.
Yan Ying shrugged her shoulders. "I said what I heard."
"Young miss, you have a call," she heard Xin Kuan''s voice and took the phone from his hand.
"Thanks, Uncle Kuan," with that she excused herself and went to the pavilion in the back garden to attend her call. Just as she put the phone against her ear, she said, "Hey, Zizi! What''s up?"
"You little brat! You again called me by my name? For once, can''t you just call me as Uncle Zi?" reprimanded Xin Zimen. However, he sounded really gentle as if he wasn''t even angry that she called him so carelessly.
"Come on, Zizi! I told you already, I can''t call you Uncle. That just doesn''t sound right," answered Yan Ying with a mischievous smile ying on her lips.
Xin Zimen sighed at this little mischief mistress and asked, "Did Xiaoli said anything to you?"
Yan Yingughed at his concern as she said, "Zizi if you were this concerned why did you force me to stay at Xin family''s vi? I think my own family''s vacation house is also in An City, I could have gone there but no. You just had to emotionally ckmail me into this." She took a pause before adding, "By the way, don''t worry. Li didn''t say anything at all. You''re just overthinking as always."
"I know my son better than you," said Xin Zimen before adding, "But forget it. You tell me why are you in An City? Does it have anything to do with the investigation that I entrusted you with?"
Yan Ying''s sweet smile swapped with a serious look as she answered vaguely, "You can say that."
Hearing her words, Xin Zimen was alert and anxious as he asked, "What did you find out?"
Yan Ying contemted something for a moment before saying, "It''s better if I tell you when youe back."
"Is it bad news?"
Yan Ying pursed her lips, "I''m notpletely certain yet. That''s why I said that it''s better if I tell you this face to face. Besides, aren''t youing this weekend? We can wait until then. I''ll also confirm the facts by then."
Xin Zimen felt apprehensive. "Littless, you''re scaring me now. But I''ll wait till I meet you. By the way, as I said before, this matter should stay between you and me. My sons shouldn''t get involved."
Yan Ying leaned against the pir as she looked at the dark sky enshrouded with clouds. "As a matter of fact, Zizi, I don''t think your family should be involved at this point."
"Why do you say so?"
Yan Ying shrugged her shoulders as she replied, "You had been misled for over twenty years. Any outsider won''t be able to mislead you for that long. It has to be someone from your family and I wouldn''t want to alert that person just yet." Her eyes shed with aplicated emotion as she said, "Besides, both Si and Li are too good for their own good. It isn''t wise to get them in this mess."Please go to
