On the same night, on the other side of the Imperial Capital, a conversation was unfolding in the Cheng Family Old Mansion.
In the study, a heavy atmosphere lingered, as the Head of Cheng Family, Cheng Qi, and his wife Xu Qingya, sat silently facing each other.
On the coffee table in front of them was a stack of documents. On the first page of the documents, Ruan Fengmian's photo was prominently affixed.
Xu Qingya sat on the sofa, her eyes lowered, her gaze sweeping over the photo, with a glimmer of coldness in her eyes.
Sitting opposite her, Cheng Qi slammed the coffee table heavily, his voice filled with anger, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big matter?"
Xu Qingya didn't move, her eyes flickered with intense sarcasm.
"Tell you what?" She curled her lips in a cold smile, "Tell you that the bastard born from your first wife has returned?"
Cheng Qi erupted in anger, "What bastard? Bai Nian is the real son of Qiu Yu and me!"
