Wu Jingzhong’s eyes fixed on Sze Lingyun. He was afraid that if he blinked, his daughter would disappear right in front of his eyes.

“The paternity test results haven’t been released yet…” The moment Sze Lingyun saw Wu Jingzhong, a strange sense of familiarity also rose from the depths of her heart.

That had to be the wonderful feeling of being surrounded by family, right?

She had never felt this way before, even when faced with her ‘parents’ in the Sze family. This feeling of familiarity had only surfaced when she met the Wu family. She liked this family and initially intended to become Grandpa Wu’s god-granddaughter.

The moment Sze Lingyun laid eyes on Wu Jingzhong, her heart filled with joy and excitement.

When she saw him falling from exhaustion and having to be helped up, she felt her heart sink.

It was simply too heart-wrenching!

When Elder Wu heard Sze Lingyun’s words, he chuckled and chimed in. “The paternity test is just a formality. We know for sure that you’re a descendant of the Wu family—that’s indisputable. There’s no need for verification.”

Wu Jingzhong’s eyes reddened. He was always such a well-mannered person, but in this moment, he forgot to thank Nuannuan for all her work. He slowly walked up to Sze Lingyun with a concerned expression. His voice trembled as he asked, “Little girl, what is your name?”

Shi Lingyun’s eyes also reddened. Her lips parted and she answered softly, “My name is Sze Lingyun.”

“M-may I call you Lil Yun?”

Shi Lingyun felt her heart tremble as she nodded and replied hesitantly, “Yes…”

Besides Li Jingyan, no one else had ever called her Lil Yun before.

She liked Li Jingyan calling her Lil Yun. She also liked her… her father calling her that.

“Your mother… Is she alright?”

Even though she had never seen her mother before, hearing her father ask about her, tears started rolling down Sze Lingyun’s cheeks. “She…”

“Uncle Wu, Senior Sister’s background is rather complicated. We’re at the administrative department—there are many people around watching us. How about we head back first?”

Nangong Nuannuan figured that if she did not encourage Wu Jingzhong to head home and recuperate, coupled with the fact that he was still in a state of shock since his release, he would likely end up fainting. If that happened, the Wu family would undoubtedly freak out.

After hearing Sze Lingyun’s tone, Wu Jingzhong understood the situation. A dull pain of self-reproach rose in his heart, making him feel terrible. It was not until Nangong Nuannuan reminded him of where they were that he suddenly remembered that they were still at the entrance of the administration department and there was a crowd of people watching them.

“Yes, yes. Let’s go back and then talk.” Wu Jingzhong gave Nangong Nuannuan another deep bow. He said sincerely, “Nuannuan, thank you. I’m really grateful! You’re my benefactor! Although I likely won’t be of much use to you, Uncle Wu wants you to know that if you ever need help in the future, just let me know. I’ll definitely help you, even if it means risking my own life.”

Nangong Nuannuan could not help but burst into laughter. “Uncle, you’re indeed Elder Wu’s biological son—you both sound exactly the same. It was nothing much for me to help you. I helped you as a friend, so there’s no need for you to return the favor. I want the best for all of my friends. Uncle, let’s get in the car. You’re clearly exhausted. Once we’re home, we’ll prepare a meal for you and put you on a nutrition drip.”
