Chapter 988 - Ambiguity (1/2)

Originally, Nan Zhi had suspected Helian Zhu of foul play. She had thought that Helian Zhu did this because she was bitter.

But on second thought, Helian Zhu would not be so crazy for the sake of love!

After Nan Zhi and the two children had fallen asleep, An Feng was still wide awake. She lay on the bed, staring at the dark sky outside.

A crescent moon hung high in the sky, emitting a cool light. She held her face in her hands, her eyebrows furrowed.

Although the police found that the kitchen fire was caused by aging kitchen circuits, she kept feeling that things were not so simple…

She and Zhizhi had lived there for more than four years and nothing had happened. Why was it only tonight?

And it happened after she had gotten that cup? Could things really be so coincidental?

The more An Feng thought about it, the more she found it more suspicious.

Did someone know something and destroy the cup she had kept, so she would not be able to do the DNA test? If it was like that, she must get a new sample and get to the bottom of this!

But, no one knew about that incident other than her best friend who had attended the masquerade. Later, after she returned to the country, she heard that her best friend had died in a car accident.

An Feng could feel a sense of uneasiness and a cold chill envelope her. She felt that this matter was not so simple.

But these were all just her suspicions. She did not know who to talk to before she confirmed this. After all, what happened that year was a trauma in her heart. She only wanted to forget about it and never mention it again.

…

The next day.

An Feng woke up early. After was.h.i.+ng up, she went downstairs to walk around. Having not slept well last night, her mind was still a little muddled.

In the afternoon, Sihan would be picking them up. There should be no one setting fire under Sihan’s eyes after they returned to the Capital!

She wanted to get a strand of Helian Xiao’s hair before leaving. Otherwise, they might not have the chance to meet again.

Helian Xiao’s room was diagonally opposite An Feng and Nan Zhi’s rooms. An Feng returned to the hotel and as soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw Helian Xiao, Feng Yao and Helian Zhu.

“Auntie Feng, I thought you and Zhizhi were still asleep. My dad has an important meeting this morning so he and Helian Zhu are leaving.”

An Feng nodded and said curtly, “Goodbye.”

Seeing that they had entered the elevator, An Feng walked towards Helian Xiao’s room. There was an attendant inside checking the items inside and An Feng knocked then entered.

The attendant looked at An Feng. “Excuse me, you are…”

An Feng said gently, “I’m with the gentleman who stayed here last night. He forgot something and I came to help him find it.”

When the attendant heard that there was something left behind, she stepped aside. Those who stayed in the presidential suite were usually not ordinary guests. If the item they left behind really went missing, it would be troublesome if they blame it on them attendants.

“Then please go ahead. I’ll clean the other rooms first.”

After the attendant left, An Feng hurried into the bedroom. She lifted the blanket and carefully checked the bed.

The pillow and head of the bed where that person had slept were clean, there were no strands of hair at all.

An Feng then entered the bedroom again.

Still, she found nothing.

She circled around the bedroom again and suddenly found a light colored night robe hanging in the wardrobe.

She went over and looked carefully. At the collar, she found two strands of hair.

An Feng was delighted.

She took out a small transparent bag and carefully put the strands of hair inside.
