After the True Heiress Travels Back-Chapter 884: Reappraisal
Quan Feifei finished her heart-wrenching words and hung up the call with Quan Chengyi.
Quan Chengyi stared at his phone, somewhat dazed.
What had he done wrong?
How had his own daughter developed such a character?
While he was in a daze, he heard his assistant say that Special Assistant Sun had come to visit. He immediately invited him in.
"Special Assistant Sun, what brings you here so suddenly?"
Although Quan Chengyi had far more resources than Special Assistant Sun, the latter was under Quan Jinbei.
Because of this, Quan Chengyi had to give Special Assistant Sun some respect.
Special Assistant Sun’s visit naturally had a purpose.
Without much small talk, he got straight to the point.
"Miss Feifei was found with the help of our third master."
As soon as Special Assistant Sun spoke, Quan Chengyi’s heart sank.
He asked nervously, "Special Assistant Sun, what do you mean by this? Is Jinbei angry, so..."
"No." Special Assistant Sun waved his hand. "You don’t need to overthink it. My visit is indeed related to Miss Feifei, but not in the way you think."
Quan Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief but was still uneasy, not knowing what Special Assistant Sun was really here for.
Special Assistant Sun took out a file, "This is the life history of Miss Feifei before she reunited with you. The one you saw before was actually incomplete."
He spread out the documents, which included another profile.
"This is the history of Miss Feifei’s friend, Miss Ruanruan..."
Quan Feifei and Ruanruan’s appearances could be said to be very similar.
Because their looks belonged to the same type, they appeared more alike than most people.
However, their appearances were not like exact copies of each other.
Initially, Quan Chengyi thought Special Assistant Sun brought another girl’s profile just to make him realize how bad his own daughter was.
But at a glance, he was stunned immediately.
For no other reason.
Ruanruan’s looks and temperament were almost identical to those of his wife in his memory.
Originally, the reason he acknowledged Quan Feifei as his daughter was that, at first glance, he felt Quan Feifei was very similar to his wife.
But now, facing a girl who resembled his wife even more closely than Quan Feifei, how could he not be astonished?
Quan Chengyi looked at Special Assistant Sun with puzzled eyes, hoping he would provide an explanation.
Special Assistant Sun got straight to the point: "Miss Feifei has been persistently bothering our third master, and I think you should know this."
Cold sweat appeared on Quan Chengyi’s forehead, and his heart started pounding.
Of course, he knew what Quan Feifei had done.
It was precisely because he knew that he felt even more guilty.
His daughter’s actions, so morally skewed, weighed heavily on him. Yet, because his daughter was not raised under his guidance, he felt deeply indebted and wronged her. So even though he knew her actions were wrong, he never dared to object.
Reflecting on this, he felt he had done something wrong.
"I know what Feifei did was unscrupulous. I’ve already advised her. If it doesn’t work, I will send her abroad. I hope Jinbei can show some leniency..."
Special Assistant Sun shook his head, "I didn’t come here to talk about that."
"When our madam met with Miss Feifei last time, they discussed her background. Miss Feifei showed some unusual reactions, and our madam suspects that her identity may have issues."
He pointed to Ruanruan’s profile. "In fact, Miss Feifei and Miss Ruanruan have many similarities, so I hope you can cooperate in conducting another paternity test."
Quan Chengyi’s heart skipped a beat.
Logic told him he couldn’t agree to Special Assistant Sun’s request.
Feifei was his daughter.
If his daughter learned that he distrusted her and went behind her back to do another paternity test with Special Assistant Sun, Feifei would be heartbroken.
But at the same time, he was very tempted.
He had an inexplicable hunch.
This Ruanruan...
Might have a deep connection with him.
Letting this chance slip away so easily would leave him feeling unwilling.
His emotions even became inexplicably restless.
Special Assistant Sun, being astute, naturally knew what he was thinking and immediately said, "Whether Feifei is your daughter or not, it’s better to clarify things rather than living in ambiguity."
"Moreover, Miss Feifei isn’t petty-minded. She won’t mind this. Confirming her identity more conclusively should indeed make her happier."
Quan Chengyi, already vulnerable to persuasion, had no resistance left after Special Assistant Sun’s few words and readily agreed to the suggestion of redoing the DNA test.
Special Assistant Sun took the sample from him and left.
In fact, to test the DNA, he could have investigated without leaving a trace.
He could have obtained Quan Chengyi’s sample without anyone knowing.
However, he did not.
He wasn’t a thief, nor did he have a guilty conscience, so naturally, he approached openly.
If Quan Feifei was indeed Quan Chengyi’s daughter, then perhaps everyone could rejoice.
If it turned out that Quan Feifei wasn’t Quan Chengyi’s daughter, then you’d call it a celebration for all.
After all, dealing with such a troublesome daughter, truth be told, it was better to have none than to have her.
Those were Special Assistant Sun’s truest thoughts.
In his view, since Quan Chengyi reunited with Quan Feifei, he had not enjoyed a bit of family happiness.
He had been nothing but an ATM for Quan Feifei, always cleaning up her messes.
One look at Quan Feifei made it clear she wasn’t one to cherish the father-daughter relationship.
Perhaps in her eyes, Quan Chengyi was just someone she could use.
In this case, proving that there was no relationship between them would be the best outcome.
Special Assistant Sun didn’t specifically hide his visit to Quan Chengyi.
Quan Feifei didn’t care much about what Quan Chengyi did, so at first, she didn’t realize her identity was being questioned.
Only when Special Assistant Sun brought the DNA results to her door did she realize.
By then, it would be too late for Quan Feifei to say anything to save the situation.
...
After obtaining the sample from Quan Chengyi, Special Assistant Sun sent it, along with another sample of Ruanruan given to him by Shi Yaoguang, to the testing institution.
During the time waiting for the test results, Special Assistant Sun was also curious, wanting to know whether Quan Feifei was really Quan Chengyi’s daughter.
If she wasn’t, then how had she managed to deceive everyone?
Setting aside the issue of Quan Feifei’s background for now.
The scripts and endorsements she had been involved with before were already a big problem.
How much acting skill she had, she was fully aware.
Though endorsements seemed to only require her to shoot a few scenes without much acting skill.
Anyone in the profession knew better.
Shooting endorsements isn’t entirely without the need for acting skills. For instance, in shooting a food commercial, the spokesperson’s expressions need to appear enjoyable, which is far better than showing no expression at all.
If one had no expression while endorsing a food product, the audience would only think that even the spokesperson wasn’t interested, making the product seem unappetizing.
Besides expression management, having a good sense of the camera is also crucial.
Being able to catch the camera’s best shots makes a huge difference in the final product.
In conclusion...
