Nana said, "It is so Liang family."
Jinhai stiffened. Nana felt a little strange.
Liang family
In normal circumstances, it wouldn't have bothered him. But Liang Shin was now Huian's doctor.
It's not like he didn't want her to know about her real family, but Jinhai had planned to tell her about them after she gave birth. Because it was a whole another story of her disappearance from the hospital when she was born, and he didn't want to stress her out.
But now he would have to tread carefully since they are connected with the Xiang's.
If Nana and the Liang family ca face-to-face, which they will, then Nana's appearance alone would give everything away. Everything would be revealed in the banquet.
Should I let her do this?
Nana noticed that he went silent. "Jinhai?"
"Hm? NothingNana?"
"Hm?"
"I want to ask you sothing for a while"
Nana furrowed her brows. "What?"
"But promise that you won't stress over it." He pressed his back on hers. Nana felt his concern and worry with that simple action.
Nana nodded. "Okay."
Jinhai paused for a few monts. He got up, covered Nana with the sheet, and helped her sit as well.
If Nana was going to et them this way sooner or later, then it was the best that I talk about this to her right now. I don't want her to get such a big shock in the banquet suddenly.
Jinhai stared at her. "Do youwant to know about your real family?"
Nana widened her eyes in shock. She was unable to respond to this sudden question that he popped up.
Real familyMy biological family
Huo Xiao Fan's face ca in her mind. The woman who bore an uncanny resemblance to her.
What did she think about her family?
"I" Nana was still thinking about it.
Jinhai kissed her ear and combed her silky hair through his fingers. "It's alright. Take your ti."
Nana slowly said after a pause. "At first, I thought that I was abandoned. I only knew that a woman ca to the orphanage's doorstep and left there. So, I naturally thought of her as my mother. I knew that I was an unwanted child."
That was what she thought all these years. And that thought always pricked her heart; the fact that her own parents never wanted her.
Jinhai saw the pain and sorrow in her gaze. He so wished that he could be there with her all those years.
"But thenHuo Xiao Fan said that it was her who left , and she is not my mother, although we look so similar."
"Hm." Jinhai humd.
"That ans she is not my mother, but she is still a part of my real family, right?"
"Yes." Jinhai nodded.
Nana looked at him with hopeful eyes. "Then Jinhai, does that an that my real parents love ? They never wanted to abandon ? Do they want back?"
Jinhai slowly turned her to face him. He cupped her cheek and gently brushed her thumb along her jawline.
"Perhaps."
Nana went quiet.
She raised her head and looked at him. "Do you know where they are?"
Jinhai stared at her silently. He nodded.
"After Huo Xiao Fan's episode, I looked into the information regarding your parents. It wasn't difficult to find out about them. But I said nothing at that ti. I didn't want to give you another reason to get stressed. Huo Xiao Fan had already done a lot. Plus, I don't know what your biological parents thought about you after all this ti. So I thought it was for the best if we wait after you give birth."
Nana understood his concern. It might have put pressure on her, which was not good for her and their baby.
Jinhai hesitated. "I'm sorry to hide it. Should I have told you about them sooner? I was just-"
"Sshh," Nana placed a finger on his lips, "I know you were just worried about our baby and . It's not your fault."
But then sothing bugged Nana.
"But why did you suddenly ask this question now? Weren't you going to tell about them after I gave birth?"
Nana blinked her eyes. Then it struck her. Her expression slowly turned that to shock and disbelief.
"Waitdoes it has anything to do with the Liang family? The one about whom iling just called. Because you turned serious when I said that it's their banquet."
Jinhai's silence gave her the answer.
Nana's eyes glead with a little excitent. She eagerly held his hands. "I-is the Liang family, my real family?"
Jinhai smiled. "Yes, they are."
Nana was thrilled to learn that. All these years, she thought that she had no biological family, and even if she had one, they didn't want her.
"My family" The corner of her eyes stung in tears.
"iling said that it's Liang Zou's birthday banquet. Liang Zouis he my father?"
Jinhai kissed her forehead. "Yes."
Nana's face bead in delight.
Am I going to et my birth parents now?
Nana said, "Jinhaiit's such a coincidence, right? They chose Natsukashi as their caterer out of so many hotels. They don't even know that their daughter runs it!"
Jinhai pinched her nose. "Well, my little wife is so capable and the best chef. How can they not choose Natsukashi? And yes, that would definitely be a surprise for them."
Nana furiously nodded.
"So, how many mbers are there in my family?"
"MmmThree. Your mother, father, and you have an elder brother too."
Nana was stunned.
A siblingan elder brother. All this ti, she was the elder sister to the twins, but now she was the younger sister to sobody.
"Your brother is a doctor."
Nana was surprised.
"Doctor? That is such a noble job." She clapped her hands once as she felt proud. A bright smile lit her face.
Jinhai then tilted his head and squinted his eyes a little. "Do you want to know about another coincidence?"
"What?"
He slyly smiled. "He is the doctor who is treating Huian for her recovery right now."
Nana looked at him, dumbfounded.
"You know that Uncle Zhou Bingwen is away for a dical trip, right? Actually I was going to suggest your brother since I knew how capable he is, but before that, Uncle Xiang himself called him here."
He inserted a little lie that he wanted Liang Shin to be Huian's doctor. It was a type of his safety net, just to let her know that he still cared about Huian as a friend.
And Nana exactly thought just that.
Jinhai still cares about Huian as a friend, then why was she so terrified of him? It doesn't seem like anything changed from his side.
But for now, she let go of that doubt.
"And my mother?"
Jinhai tilted his head. "et her in the banquet and you will know yourself."
Nana blinked her eyes. "Okay..."
Then she excitedly said, "Then I should make their treat extra special this ti, right? After it all, it's my father's birthday. We will et again after so many years! This is the first ti he would be eating his daughter's handmade food."
Jinhai chuckled. "Yes."
Then Nana got in a dilemma.
Jinhai frowned. "What happened?"
Nana pursed her lips. "Jinhai. I can't help but feel nervous. The flip side is the sa that I will be eting them after twenty-three years. Will I fit in? Everything would be so sudden."
Jinhai smiled. "Maybe it would be a little difficult at first. After all, there is a large gap of all those years to nd between you and them. But I know that it will slowly change. There is still a lot of ti to learn about each other. With patience, everything would be just fine."
Nana got emotional and hugged him tightly. "How do you always say such right things that calm down my anxious heart?"
Jinhai laughed. "Well, I'm your husband. I must know how to take care of my wife. Or else what will I do if I failed and you find another man to soothe your nervous self?"
Nana curiously raised her brow. She inquisitively asked, "What will you do if I really find myself another man?"
A dangerous light lit his gaze, but the smile etched on his lips remained as it is.
"How about I chop him into pieces so much so that he isn't even recognizable anymore? And you"
Jinhai looked up and down at her almost naked body covered barely with a sheet.
Nana felt as if she was really naked under his predatory gaze.
"I will make it unable for you to get out of the bed for at least three days. I will nicely explain it to.you, which man is the best for you more like imprint it on you." Jinhai smirked.
Nana shuddered with the thought of that. Just one round with him was enough to make her body sore in pain. Her nether regions were completely exhausted with his passionate lovemakingjust like how they were now.
It was impossible to this tease this man!
Nana cleared her throat. "Right." She avoided looking at him.
Jinhai asked, "When is the banquet?"
Nana gave a wide smile. "Next Thursday."
Six dayssix days more, and I will finally et my family.
