Chapter 833: Chapter 21: Seeing Through_2 Chapter 833: Chapter 21: Seeing Through_2 “If we have come this far, we might as well throw caution to the wind.”

“Brother Wang was there too at the time.”

“Why didn’t we just let Brother Wang have his blood drawn too?”

“Therefore,”

“It goes without saying.”

Lin Xian, driven by his inner doubts, convinced himself to go for a DNA paternity test with Yu Xi.

Comparing Yu Xi with Yan Qiaoqiao,

Their heights, appearances, physiques, voices, and so on, all significantly differed.

Yu Xi looked like a young athlete, quite refined; in contrast, Yan Qiaoqiao was more like a delicate princess, the kind who never leaves the house or exercises.

The two girls truly had nothing in common.

Except…

Their ages!

Yu Xi appeared to be around fourteen or fifteen, while Yan Qiaoqiao’s age was hard to determine, but she likely fell within the twelve to sixteen-year-old range.

Looking at it this way,

Lin Xian indeed knew something, which led him to nonsensically conduct a paternity test with Yu Xi.

That is to say…

[Lin Xian was well aware that he had fathered a daughter with her in The Future World.]

“Lin Xian must have had some idea about this,” Zhao Yingjun continued her analysis,

“But Lin Xian’s information was very limited.”

She scratched her temple:

“Firstly, Lin Xian wasn’t so certain; he just suspected that he had a daughter with me in The Future World, so at that time he merely wanted to check; also, Lin Xian had no confidence in the DNA paternity test results, it was totally a shot in the dark.”

“Secondly, Lin Xian didn’t know anything about what our daughter looked like, her name, her age, etc….

He knew nothing, and he had never actually met our daughter.

So, when he saw Yan Qiaoqiao at the dinner table, he didn’t recognize her at all.”

“That’s not right.”

Zhao Yingjun shook her head, recalling the details of that dinner:

“Actually, Lin Xian did suspect; he even specifically inquired about Yan Qiaoqiao’s background.

But both my parents and I preemptively claimed Yan Qiaoqiao was our close relative.

As an outsider, how could Lin Xian possibly doubt our words?”

“It seems that it all just happened by coincidence; my parents thought family disgrace should not be aired publicly and didn’t really want Lin Xian to know that Yan Qiaoqiao was adopted.

At that time, I already knew about the mother-daughter blood relation with Yan Qiaoqiao, but given the circumstances…

I definitely wouldn’t have mentioned it.

Not just at that time, I still don’t know how to talk about it.”

“If that day, we had admitted to Lin Xian that the girl was picked up from the street, Lin Xian would probably have suspected Yan Qiaoqiao’s identity and then continued to push for a paternity test.

So, nobody is to blame…

it was really a comedy of errors.”

…

At this point,

Zhao Yingjun felt she had almost logically analyzed the entire situation.

And in Lin Xian’s perspective, many things were still uncertain.

For instance,

He was unsure if the daughter from the future had really traveled back to the present;

He even couldn’t confidently assert whether he truly had a daughter in The Future World.

It turned out,

Regarding the matter of “his future daughter traveling back to the present,” Lin Xian was also uninformed, confused, and uncertain.

But one thing is beyond doubt—

[Since Lin Xian harbored seeds of doubt, it meant he had once encountered matters related to time travel and The Future World.]

“Is it really a world of infinite wonders?”

Zhao Yingjun closed her eyes.

She took a deep breath through her nose.

She believed that Lin Xian definitely wouldn’t have randomly dragged her for that paternity test without a good reason.

“But why didn’t Lin Xian just tell me?”

She opened her eyes,

Struggling to understand.

There must be some special reasons, right?

Although currently they were just colleagues, Zhao Yingjun believed she was quite familiar and trusted Lin Xian considerably.

At least they could have openly discussed these matters, right?

Could it be bashfulness?

Haha.

Zhao Yingjun couldn’t help but laugh.

This matter indeed was somewhat awkward to mention.

Because…

Although their relationship was good, it was far from being close enough to discuss such matters.

To have her proactively clarify Yan Qiaoqiao’s situation to Lin Xian, pointing out the relationship of a family of three…

honestly, she couldn’t do it, couldn’t bring it up.

However,

Her intuition told her,

It wasn’t entirely for these non-vocal reasons.

Given Lin Xian’s cautious nature, he must have had other [concerns].

She fell into deep thought again,

Beginning to ponder the occasionally illogical actions from Lin Xian during their limited interactions:

1.

Lin Xian’s driving skills were too sophisticated, which didn’t match his family background, obviously hinting at more to the story.

2.

Lin Xian asked her many inexplicable questions, such as about the Mirror during a banquet, and even if she would sleep in a Hibernation Pod.

It didn’t seem odd at the time, but the more she thought about it, the stranger it appeared.

3.

The issue of Lin Xian setting off fireworks for her at Disney was equally mysterious, but what Zhao Yingjun cared about the most was the story of “Trash Can VV and White Jade Statue” recounted by Lin Xian…

Such a fairy tale-like story, hard to imagine it being merely a dream, Lin Xian likely concealed something.

4.

Lin Xian was unusually busy, and it wasn’t due to company work.

He would inexplicably travel to Mi Country back and forth several times; he was even once covertly recruited by the state for a secret mission.

It’s hard to imagine such a lifestyle for a 25-year-old man.

Considering all these irrationalities,

Zhao Yingjun speculated—
