Nie Xingzhi shifted his gaze to An Yue again. Seeing that, An Xue reflexively moved to hide behind Han Yichen. It was only after a long time that she mumbled, “I need some time to think about i

The fact that she did not reject it directly was the best answer Nie Xingzhi could get. He had enough confidence and enough patience to wait until the day An Yue really accepted him.

Nie Xingzhis lips slightly curled. He smiled gently and said, “Okay, think about it. I won’t force you.”

Hearing his words, An Yue trembled. She thought about it and finally expressed the insecurity she had been feeling about this. “I mean, are you sure I’m your daughter? I just think that it’s been so long ago. How can you be sure that I’m your daughter? Are you sure it’s not a mistake? Maybe your daughter

really grew up in our orphanage too, but… It may not be me.”

Nie Xingzhi was stunned. Looking at the insecurity and caution hidden in An Yue’s eyes, he was amused, though at the same time, his heart ached for her.

His daughter, who was supposed to live in a luxurious house and receive a high education, who was supposed to worry only about how she was going to dress herself nicely every day, how she was going to impress everyone with her beauty, who was supposed to be envied by everyone, who was supposed

to be favored and praised by people everywhere she went, instead, she was strapped for cash, worrying about her next meal, worrying about her livelihood, being looked down and insulted by people, which had given her a deeply-rooted inferiority complex. She even had to be cautious when she was

talking to him.

Nie Xingzhi was overwhelmed with guilt, and it just broke his heart to see her like this. However, he maintained a smile on his face and said in a low voice, “There is no mistake. I’ve checked everything that I should check. I’ve done the DNA test. We are biological father and daughter. There is no doubt

about that.”

‘An Yue could not tell if she was relieved or disappointed. She was distraught now, so she nodded perfunctorily and went silent.

Duan Yarong and the others sighed over their relationship and knew that it was not their position to intervene. All they could do was support An Yue when she was trying to make a decision.

Nie Xingzhi had originally come here to condemn Han Yichen, but he ended up going home in defeat. Fortunately, after seeing that An Yue was fine and she was pregnant, Nie Xingzhi felt a little relieved.

Their first meeting as father and daughter went pretty well overall, except for one thing.

An Yue’s total dependence on Han Yichen still made Nie Xingzhi feel a little uncomfortable.

Although he understood that the reason why An Yue was so dependent on Han Yichen was because Han Yichen treated her very well. As a parent, he should be happy that his daughter had found a good man, but he still felt a little upset.

His daughter, who he had never hugged and kissed for once since childhood, was now being held in arms and kissed by another man. Thinking about it just made him uncomfortable.

Because of this, Nie Xingzhi’s expression remained gloomy on the way back. No one could tell if he was mad at Han Yichen or himself.

Nie Yunfan carefully observed his uncle’s expression through the rearview mirror. After hesitating for a moment, he finally could not help but ask, “Uncle, can I ask you a question?”

“What is it?”

Nie Xingzhi swallowed hard and asked in a low voice, “Does your refusal to take over the Nie Group have anything to do with Yue Yue’s mother?”

The atmosphere in the car turned intense the moment Nie Yunfan said that.

The expression on Nie Xingzhi’s face became more and more gloomy. It frightened Nie Yunfan so much that his hand almost slipped from the steering wheel. “Uncle… Uncle Xingzhi, don’t get me wrong. You don’t have to answer my question if you don’t…”

“Yes, you got it right.”

“want to.” Nie Yunfan’s last two words overlapped with Nie Xingzhi’s reply.

Nie Yunfan was stunned for a moment. It took him a moment to realize what Nie Xingzhi had just said. His expression suddenly became intriguing.

A long time ago, the current president of the Nie Group, who was also Nie Yunfan’s father and Nie Xingzhi’s older brother, had told Nie Yunfan that no matter what happened in the future, he must respect and honor Nie Xingzhi because Nie Xingzhi had sacrificed so much for the Nie family, the Nie Group,

and even for their family.

At that time, Nie Yunfan did not understand the meaning of his father’s words, but… He felt that he could understand now.

Nie Yunfan did not ask another question, but Nie Xingzhi continued, “I suppose my brother told you before, I hate being restrained in life. Growing up, I’ve done a lot of rebellious things, such as getting into fights with others, association with bad company, racing cars at midnight…”

Nie Yunfan was dumbfounded. He never knew that his uncle had such wild times, and he had been even crazier than him!

Seeming to see what was on Nie Yunfan’s mind, Nie Xingzhi chuckled and said, “Do you know why I’ve been indulging you since you were little?”

Looking at the faint smile on Nie Xingzhi’s face, he suddenly had a bad feeling about what he was going to say next.

“Because your good-for-nothing behavior reminds me of my young self.”

Nie Yunfan was speechless. ‘Uncle, are you complimenting me or insulting me?1

After laughing for a while, the smile suddenly faded away from Nie Xingzhi’s face. “Although I was rebellious at that time, I was smart and had business talent. You’re a lot like me. The Nie family has always been tolerant of family members with business talent, just like how your parents won’t interfere

too much in your life. My parents didn’t interfere much in my life at that time, either. The only difference is that your parents loved you so much that they had no choice but to indulge you, while certain people only indulged me because I was useful to them.”

“Uncle Xingzhi

“But none of that matters. They should never have involved Yue Ru. They knew that I already had someone I loved. Just because Yue Ru’s family was ordinary and not as prestigious as they wanted, they connived or worked with that woman to chase Yue Ru away and force me to give in.”

Nie Xingzhi smiled coldly. There was a coldness in his eyes that Nie Yunfan had never seen before. “Yue Ru was the first piece happy news that I wanted to share with them. At that time, I naively thought they would be happy for me, but the reality gave me the heaviest blow. They ruined my trust in them,

and they ruined my life. You asked me if my refusal to inherit the family business was related to Yue Ru. I can honestly tell you that I hate the Nie family, I loathe the Nie family, even to the point of loathing the Nie Group. If it weren’t for my brother, sister-in-law, and you, I would’ve cut ties with the Nie

Group already..”
