"Xiliang Mountain?" Yin Qi’s complexion changed, and so did Yu Wen’s. The couple exchanged a glance and both remained silent.
Sensing the change in his parents, Yin Chengyi asked, "Dad, Mom, what’s wrong with you two?"
"It’s nothing," Yin Qi grasped his chopsticks tightly and said in a heavy tone, "Let’s eat."
Yin Chengyi just thought his parents were upset because of what people were saying online, so he didn’t say anything else.
After the al was over, the couple returned to their room and sat in silence for a while.
"Could it be, that child really is her?"
"I think there’s a very good chance."
Yin Qi furrowed his brows tightly, "Let’s et her."
Yu Wen, however, said, "No, you’ve just taken office. If this news gets out, it will have a major impact on you. Besides, if you don’t tell and I don’t tell, who would know?"
Yin Qi looked at her, "She’s our daughter. Although we abandoned her and had our reasons, I’ve been uncomfortable about it all these years."
"Do you think I feel any better?!" Yu Wen’s eyes dimd, "Let’s not talk about this now. Let’s secretly obtain her hair for DNA testing first."
Yin Qi felt that was a good idea, "Alright, you handle this matter."
"Actually, why don’t we just pretend we don’t know anything? After all, she won’t know. Chengyi’s age was deliberately changed; who would know? Since we abandoned her back then, let’s just assu she’s dead. I feel that we didn’t raise her, so she won’t be that close to us."
But Yin Qi couldn’t do that, "What do you an ’assu she’s dead’? Yu Wen, I feel guilty about her. I abandoned my own flesh and blood; this has always been my heartache. Whether she forgives or not, I originally thought she definitely wouldn’t have survived, that she had died at that ti. I didn’t expect this child to have such a strong will to live."
"Don’t get agitated. If we’re sure, we’ll acknowledge her. There might be a gap between us, but if we acknowledge her, would she disagree? However, we can’t make this public. We can acknowledge each other in private. The main thing is not to affect your position."
"In a few days, invite her here to et, drug her a little, and get her hair."
"Or maybe wait a few months..."
"In a few days. If I weren’t just appointed today, I’d be eager to invite her over now."
Yu Wen had no choice but to agree, "Okay, in a few days then."

Gu Lili didn’t take the matter to heart, but she was extrely surprised to receive an invitation from the President’s Residence a few days later.
After discussing with Long Yubei, they decided to go together.
However, Long Yubei accompanied her as his true self.
It seed like Gu Lili was going to the appointnt alone, but in reality, two people ca.
Gu Lili wasn’t nervous.
She had seen the Netherworld King from the Netherworld, Immortal Jun Yu from the Heavenly World, Young Master Rong Fei from the Demon World, and the like. She wasn’t at all intimidated by the mortal world’s Royal Family.
Her deanor was very relaxed.
Today she wore a red cloak with a hoodie, a white knee-length sweater dress underneath, and long black boots.
Following the person in charge of reception, she made her way to the President’s office.
Throughout, she remained indifferent, not knowing what they wanted from her.
Entering the office, both the First Lady and the President were present.
Seeing her arrival, the couple stood up together.
Yin Qi’s pupils constricted as he looked at her face, feeling an excitent inside him that was hard to control.
A complex array of emotions surged in Yu Wen’s eyes, the ones who should be nervous weren’t, and she, who shouldn’t be nervous, felt anxious.
"Have you arrived? Please, take a seat."
