His deep and mysterious gaze swept across Ran Xiangsi before he stood up and quickly left the living room.
Ping Le hurried back and rushed over as soon as he saw the young master coming out, "Young master! As per your instructions, we need to know all the details about Miss Ran before marriage. We extracted her DNA and compared it in the gene database, but couldn’t find any matching DNA in the entire A City..."
"What do you mean?" Xing Chen glanced sideways at Ping Le.
He came back so hastily, there must be something important.
"It means Miss Ran’s hometown isn’t A City, and she’s not Ran Zhonghai’s biological daughter..." Ping Le wiped his sweat away. Finding out such information had shocked him, which is why he hurried back.
After hearing Ping Le’s words, a strange color surged in Xing Chen’s usually calm, indifferent eyes.
Judging by Ran Xiangsi’s demeanor, she likely didn’t know that she wasn’t Ran Zhonghai’s daughter, otherwise, her expression wouldn’t have been so sorrowful just now.
"Keep investigating. I need to know who her real parents are."
It seems this little girl still has quite a few secrets hidden within her...
"Yes, young master." Ping Le responded but quickly added, "But young master, if Miss Ran’s parents remain unknown, according to the rules, she can’t marry you."
The Wilson family is very strict about bloodline screening. Since Ran Xiangsi is not Ran Zhonghai’s biological daughter, her real parentage must be clarified first for her to be eligible to marry Xing Chen.
Such are the family rules, and Ping Le was conducting the background check on Ran Xiangsi according to these regulations.
Of course, Xing Chen understands these rules, but...
He stood with his hands behind his back before the enormous fountain, his gaze darkening as he looked towards Ran Xiangsi, who was sitting on the sofa, lost in thought.
"Continue the background check. As for the marriage, I’ll make the call." Without much hesitation, Xing Chen quickly decided everything.
Ran Xiangsi is the person he has chosen, so what if the bloodline check can’t pass?
After instructing Ping Le, Xing Chen started walking back into the villa.
By now, Ran Xiangsi had finished looking at the surveillance on her phone. Ran Zhonghai had already left with his men.
An inexplicable sour feeling rose in her heart.
Such solemn and sacred blood relations were utterly ruined by Ran Zhonghai.
"Have you thought it through?" Amid her daze, Xing Chen’s warm voice came again.
Ran Xiangsi instinctively raised her eyes and saw Xing Chen already standing in front of her. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt
She looked up at him while sitting down, making him appear even taller.
Majestic like a mountain, even just looking at him offered a sense of comfort.
His proposal truly felt like a timely help to her.
By signing the agreement now, Ran Zhonghai and Gu Beichuan wouldn’t be able to touch her even a bit.
And she’d gain a husband, someone she could rely on.
It seems like a win-win situation.
"I need time to consider, give me one more night." Ran Xiangsi cautiously approached the matter.
Making any decision too hastily would be unwise.
Just one night, a bit more time to think.
Listening to Ran Xiangsi, Xing Chen understood the hesitation in her eyes.
Indeed, this is a lifelong matter; it wouldn’t be proper to rush her to decide within half an hour.
With this in mind, Xing Chen slightly nodded in agreement, "Once you’ve made up your mind, call me anytime."
