Anhao had already gone back to her room for an hour and had yet to come out.

Her room was very quiet, so quiet that it was as if no one was inside.

Zuo Hancheng stood outside the door until he heard footsteps coming from inside. The door opened at the same time and Anhao walked out quickly.

As soon as she walked out, she saw Zuo Hancheng. Anhao paused for a moment and quickly turned around to wipe her eyes with her hands. Then, she put on a smile and turned around. However, when she turned around, Zuo Hancheng did not move. It was as if he had been outside the door for the past two hours, accompanying her and waiting for her.

“Didn’t Lin Qing bring some data from the company that you need to deal with this morning? Don’t you have to go to the study?” Anhao smiled as she spoke, then returned the folder to him.””I’m done.”

Zuo Hancheng raised his hand to take it, but when he took it, he noticed that Anhao’s hand was holding the document bag for a moment. She did not let go immediately.

“Haven’t you finished reading it?” he asked.

Anhao quickly let go of her hand, then smiled.””I was too engrossed in reading just now. I’m a little sleepy. I’ll go wash my face.”

As she spoke, she was about to walk past Zuo Hancheng.

However, her arm suddenly tightened. Zuo Hancheng grabbed her arm and pulled her back. At the same time, he turned to look at her reddened eyes.

“Did you cry?”

Anhao took a deep breath and continued smiling.”No, I haven’t.”

However, she did not dare to look at him directly. She only turned her head slightly.”Perhaps it was because she was too shocked to see the truth. Her eyes kept staring back and forth without blinking, so she looked a little red.”

It was not that Zuo Hancheng had not seen her ability to lie through her teeth. Usually, he would either let her fool him or tease her. However, at this moment, he held her arm tightly and did not let go, nor did he allow her to turn around and run away.

Anhao couldn’t walk away at all. She could only turn to look at him.”I want to wash my face…”

“There’s no need to hide and cry all the time. You’ve never cried in front of me for so long. Anhao, am I the person you trust the most?”

Anhao sniffled and raised her hand to push his hand away, but Zuo Hancheng held onto her tightly.

She had no choice but to stand there stiffly.”Actually, there’s nothing to cry about. It’s just that I’m too surprised. Really…It’s just that I’m too surprised…”

She laughed as she spoke.” I shed a few tears because I was surprised. I didn’t cry for long. There’s no need for me to run out and let you see me. I’ll just go wash my face.””

However, Zuo Hancheng refused to let go of her. Anhao’s eyes gradually became moist again. She held back her tears and looked up at him.”Zuo Hancheng! No one is as unreasonable as you! You clearly know why I’m anxious, but you only let me know the truth now! You clearly know that I’m feeling bad and only came out after comforting myself with great difficulty. Do you still want to force me to cry or something?”

“Get well soon and go to America. I’ll accompany you to New York to settle down.”

Anhao’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that, and her tears were instantly forced back.””No!”

“No?” Zuo Hancheng frowned. Do you want to lie to yourself forever?”

She finally understood why Zuo Hancheng did not tell her about her past.

As expected, even if she knew, she would not be able to return to the place where she truly belonged.

Even if she had long suspected the relationship between An Ping and the An family, even if she knew the real truth now, it seemed that there was no difference.

She was still the abandoned child, the child who was hidden in a corner and not allowed to be discovered by outsiders…

“Going to the United States was one of my conditions. As for the Andersons, we’ll discuss it again after we arrive in the United States. Everything has to be done. Since you’ve already decided to start, you can’t hide anymore.”

Anhao lowered her head and didn’t say anything. She only curled her lips slightly, but her smile was a little self-deprecating.

Zuo Hancheng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm and pulled her towards him. Anhao staggered and stood in front of him. She looked up and saw the protective look in his eyes.”With me around, no one can hide your identity forever. No matter how high the threshold of the An family is, you should never be rejected.”

“Actually, I just need to know who I am and who my mother is. I don’t want to look for those people, and I don’t have to acknowledge my ancestors. After all, I’ve long been used to this homeless life for the past twenty years.””So, there’s really no need to go through so much trouble…” Anhao said softly.

“If you know your mother’s identity, then do you know why she hid you? Do you know who your biological father is? You don’t want to investigate anymore? Wasn’t he willing to hand over all his savings just to find out his background? Now, he was starting to be afraid and unwilling to face it again?

Hmm?”

As soon as Zuo Hancheng finished speaking, Anhao’s breathing stopped.

That’s right. Zuo Hancheng had already found out about Anping’s relationship with the An family, but it seemed that Zuo Hancheng had not found out about her biological father. To be able to find out about Anping’s hidden identity and the inside story of her faking her death in the past was indeed beyond her imagination.

But her biological father…

Also, she really did not understand why Anping had sent her to the Gu family back then and even faked her death.

“Perhaps the Andersons ‘background is too complicated. My mother, she…”

“Are you sure you don’t want to go back and ask her yourself how she could bear to leave you behind in the Gu family eight years ago?”

Anhao did not say anything, so Zuo Hancheng pulled her hand and pressed her head into his arms. Anhao’s emotions were like a fierce gust of wind blowing in front of her chest, and she could not find the right direction for a moment.

The emotions that he had tried hard to calm down were filled with countless waves.

She closed her eyes and tried to calm down. Her nose was filled with Zuo Hancheng’s unique scent and his body temperature. Anhao leaned her head against his chest obediently and did not try to break free.

Now, she no longer had the strength to break free. She was indeed too tired. Her body and mind needed a harbor that she trusted the most to let her buffer and rest.

However, the words on the documents about her background kept flashing in front of her.

She really could not believe that her mother had faked her death back then. Anping was actually still alive. In these eight years, she had lived in a place she did not know.

Anhao leaned all her strength on Zuo Hancheng’s body and let him hug her. She said with a sour nose,””Zuo Hancheng, I’m hungry…”

“I didn’t eat anything when I went out with you at noon. I forgot about it when I came back just now. I’m so hungry now…”

Zuo Hancheng sighed and patted her back gently.””Wait.”
