She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1345: Chapter 1415: I Am a Love Child

“The Feng Family? The one dealing in antique artwork?” Sheng Ning recalled that Gu Yunbo had mentioned it once.

The Feng Family had migrated to M country generations ago and was the most successful and powerful among the Chinese there.

“May I know why you’re looking for me?” Sheng Ning asked cautiously.

“We found you because of the Secret Silver Necklace you sent out.”

“Oh! You mean the necklace I used to bribe Doctor Bill.” Her intuition told her that Housekeeper Xing had no ill intentions toward her, so Sheng Ning relaxed.

Moreover, she was in a good mood, and the smile on her face didn’t fade, “That necklace was a gift from my grandfather, I didn’t expect it to be Secret Silver.”

After her grandfather passed away, her uncle sorted through his belongings and found many pieces of jewelry, some very lavish and some very simple. Because they were the old man’s legacy, Sheng Ning carefully kept them all.

The majority were silver jewelry, which she thought was just ordinary silver at the time.

If she had known it was so valuable, she would have put the necklace to better use.

“That necklace is jewelry from our Feng Family; it belonged to our master’s sister, your grandmother.” Housekeeper Xing said bluntly.

“Our family doesn’t have overseas connections; my grandfather and uncle never mentioned it.”

“Then may I ask what your grandmother’s name is?”

“Feng… Zhifen.” Sheng Ning still remembered her grandfather calling out the name Zhifen repeatedly when he passed away. Decades of longing were all contained in those two characters: Zhifen.

“Then there’s no mistake, our master’s sister is indeed named Feng Zhifen.” Faced with Sheng Ning’s skepticism, Housekeeper Xing was not only unperturbed but also quite pleased.

This was the normal reaction one should have, unlike the impostor in her family, who showed every possible ugly face upon hearing about connections to high-status people.

“But my grandmother was an only child.” Sheng Ning knew little about her grandmother’s family, as they were old stories from an older generation. Normally, her grandfather would only mention the past when he was happy or when he was with Mr. Hai.

Thinking of Mr. Su’s proud expression whenever he mentioned her grandmother, Sheng Ning said: “My grandmother was famous as the Shanghai Beach heiress; everyone in the bustling city back then knew her name.”

Recalling the glory of the past seemed to bring the extravagant scenes alive in front of her.

“So, Housekeeper Xing, please be cautious with your words.” Sheng Ning said sternly. “Though I’ve fallen overseas, I would never casually recognize relatives.”

Housekeeper Xing smiled wryly, about to explain further when a hoarse voice came from the doorway.

“You’re right, your grandmother indeed was an only child.” Mr. Feng stood silently at the door, leaning on his cane.

Housekeeper Xing, Gu Yunbo, and Feng Zhenzhen, who had come along, looked incredulously at Mr. Feng.

Evidently, shocked by his words.

Sheng Ning widened her eyes, dumbfoundedly looking at the elderly man. His age appeared similar to her grandfather’s, though their appearance and demeanor were entirely different, yet he felt familiarly kind.

“Because I am an illegitimate child.” Mr. Feng openly revealed the secret buried in his heart for over half a century. “I am the illegitimate child of the Feng Family. It was your grandmother who took me back and included me in the Feng Family genealogy.”

Feng Zhenzhen couldn’t help but gasp.

Sheng Ning also covered her mouth in shock, taking a while before she reacted and hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Facing an elderly man similar to her grandfather, she felt very ashamed.
