He had probably developed a trauma of women from the time he accidentally witnessed the scene of her dissecting a body in a lab.
While Alice had a graceful poise when cutting her steak, he somehow found the way she cut it up akin to how she cut up a dead body.
She’s terrifying.
While it’s fine to have a drink or two with the lady, dating her practically screams nightmare.
“Oh.” Upon recalling a certain matter, his father suddenly commented in a rather offhanded way, “I heard from the bodyguards tasked to protect you that you were seen having a great time with a woman.”
Gong Jie’s heart skipped a beat at that.
He turned his face slightly toward his father to peek at his expression. When he did not notice anything out of the ordinary, he felt somewhat settled enough to feign calmness and shoot his father a question. “What did they say?”
“You were spotted on a coffee-and-shopping date with a woman who appeared to be on close terms with you.”
“…”
A frown crossed his face.
Was it that time when I visited the country and my sister brought me to eat mala hotpot as well as play mini games like shooting, throwing the hoop, and fishing…
That’s when I realized that we were being tailed.
D*mn it! I specifically warned them not to report my whereabouts to my father, but they still went ahead and did just that.
To what extent have they reported back to him about my sister?
What is dad trying to find out by pretending to be so unconcerned?
He had no idea how much his father knew, but the latter did not look like he was going to probe deeply. In fact, he appeared to be completely unaware of his sister’s existence.
The tension within him ebbed away as he replied, “She’s just a friend of mine and not the reason for my frequent visits.”
“Oh? Then, what was the purpose of your visits?”
“To find someone.”
That reply caused his father’s expression to sink in an instant, though his voice sounded as calm as before. “Looks like you haven’t given up.”
“Dead or alive, I want her found, or else I’ll never end my search,” answered the young man as he feigned calmness and tried to test his father’s reaction.
His father, however, clenched his fists tightly, which got him heaving a sigh of relief inwardly. It looks like he still doesn’t know that she’s alive.
Albeit feeling somewhat guilty toward his father, he had to keep his sister’s existence a secret until she agreed to return to the Gong family. That was what he promised her.
A trace of despondency washed over Gong Shaoying’s face. He knew just who exactly his son was searching for.
It was the young chap’s twin sister—the daughter he had with Mu Qingcheng. According to his son, his daughter was given a beautiful name, Shishi.
Unexplainable joy and bliss filled him when he first learned that his beloved woman had given birth to twins of both genders for him.
Unfortunately, no matter how fast he tried to rush over to meet them, he ultimately failed to meet his daughter.
Back then, the hospital told him that she had passed away in that fire with her body reduced into ashes.
That piece of news nearly crippled him. If not for the fact that his son managed to survive the accident, he truly did not know what sort of insane things he would do in an act of fury.
Years passed, and he had eventually come to terms about that tragic fact.
This son of his, meanwhile, just could not accept it. He had been searching for his twin sister all this while, refusing to give up on any clues or chances.
The reason that he did not stop or dissuade his son from doing so might be due to him secretly hoping, too, for a miracle to happen.
