After the True Heiress Travels Back
Chapter 777 Princess Feifei

Chapter 777: Chapter 777 Princess Feifei

Feifei hung her head low, belittling herself incessantly.

"You must have mistaken me for someone else, I can’t be my cousin’s daughter, and my life is pretty good now, so please just pretend you never saw me!"

As she attempted to leave, Mr. Pang grabbed her arm, "Stop right there! Did Mr. Quan say you could go?"

During the exchange, he turned to Shi Yaoguang and apologized, "I’m so sorry, Ms. Shi, it’s my fault for not teaching her well, allowing her to be rude."

"It’s not your fault," Shi Yaoguang didn’t show any anger, regardless of whether Feifei was Quan Chengyi’s daughter or not, it was a matter that needed confirmation.

Though Feifei said she couldn’t possibly be the daughter Quan Chengyi had lost, her eyes still held a glimmer of hope.

What if she really was?

With that aspiration in her heart, she ultimately agreed to meet with Quan Chengyi.

Quan Chengyi received the news and arrived at the Quan Family’s old house as soon as he could.

"Where is my daughter!"

Upon entering, Quan Chengyi’s first question was about his daughter.

By his demeanor, one could tell that if his daughter had grown up by his side, she likely would have had a happy life.

There weren’t many people at the old house.

Just Quan Jinbei and his wife, and Feifei.

Even the butler had been sent away.

As for Mr. Pang...

If Feifei was indeed Quan Chengyi’s daughter, having slept with someone’s daughter, he certainly wouldn’t dare show up during the recognition process for fear of being killed.

Even if...

Their transaction had been mutually consenting.

Setting aside that issue, Quan Chengyi was certain of Feifei’s identity at first glance.

"My daughter!"

He said and lunged toward Feifei.

Feifei instinctively twisted her waist and performed an exceedingly intimate gesture, wrapping her arms around his neck.

Quan Chengyi stood frozen on the spot.

Feifei, too, felt a hint of embarrassment.

The air seemed to solidify.

Quan Jinbei cleared his throat lightly, easing the awkwardness.

Feifei loosened the arms she had around his neck, pretending as if nothing had happened.

It was then that Quan Chengyi came back to his senses and looked at Feifei, "My daughter, I’m sorry, Daddy has finally found you!"

As he said this, he looked toward Quan Jinbei, his gaze tinged with a plea for help.

Before Quan Jinbei found her, he hadn’t seen Feifei’s information.

So now, facing his daughter, he was even less familiar with her than Quan Jinbei was.

This made him very embarrassed.

Meeting Quan Chengyi’s pleading gaze, Quan Jinbei seemed... unsure of how he could be of help.

After all, he didn’t know Feifei very well either.

He knew, at most, that Feifei had gotten involved with Mr. Pang six months ago, and not much else.

With that in mind, he once again looked towards Shi Yaoguang.

Shi Yaoguang spoke up to ease the stiff atmosphere, "Ahem... cousin, you and Feifei still need a proper introduction."

Hearing this, the cousin nodded vigorously, "Right, right, let me introduce myself, I am Quan Chengyi, of this generation of the Quan Family... and I am Quan Jinbei’s cousin..."

After he finished reciting his family history, Feifei bashfully asked, "How did you confirm that I’m your daughter?"

When he mentioned this, Quan Chengyi’s eyes brimmed with hot tears, "Your looks, you resemble your young mother about fifty or sixty percent! The remaining forty percent, you resemble me!"

As he spoke, there was a hint of pride in his tone.

Feifei couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this, her smile incredibly gentle and sweet.

Quan Chengyi, watching her smile, couldn’t help but blame himself, "If only I had found you sooner, you wouldn’t have had to suffer so much for nothing."

With that, he started to beat his chest and stomp his feet, "It’s all my fault, all my fault! I have failed to be a good father!"

"How could this be your fault?"

Feifei said, lowering her head, "I’m already very happy that you could find me."

"Yes, yes, you should be happy!" Quan Chengyi said, sizing up Feifei up and down, unable to suppress a foolish grin, "My daughter is so beautiful, she must have a limitless future. Don’t worry, Feifei, I’ll announce to the world right away that you are our family’s little princess!"

At these words, Feifei’s face tensed, "But..."

Seeing this, Quan Chengyi felt a pang in his heart, "Feifei, what’s wrong?"

Feifei’s eyes reddened, but she remained silent.

He could only look to Quan Jinbei and Shi Yaoguang, hoping they would step in and say something.

If he’d known, he would have asked Quan Jinbei for the full story beforehand, so he wouldn’t have arrived so cluelessly.

What if his daughter felt he hadn’t performed well and didn’t want to acknowledge her own father anymore?

Feifei had become Mr. Pang’s woman, a piece of news that wasn’t exactly received well.

If Quan Chengyi took offense, it would indeed be a troublesome matter.

Fortunately, Quan Jinbei was prepared; before Quan Chengyi’s arrival, he had the butler prepare a file.

But alas...

Quan Chengyi was too excited. Although the butler had prepared everything, he himself had rushed in to see his daughter.

Hadn’t he just missed the chance to learn more about his daughter?

Seizing the opportunity, the butler handed the prepared file to Quan Chengyi, saying, "These are the records of Miss Feifei’s life over the years, please take a look."

Quan Chengyi opened the file and began to read intently.

After reading, his expression instantly darkened.

Over the years, Feifei’s life had not been particularly good.

She was abducted at three and quickly sold to a family as a child bride.

However, that family soon died, succumbing to illness.

By the age of five, Feifei had been sent to an orphanage, which was no pleasant place either.

Some orphanages were better, lacking resources, but at least the kids wouldn’t starve.

But in some places, what was done was simply inhumane.

They would intentionally dress up the better-looking children as gifts for officials and dignitaries, using them as bargaining chips to solicit more donations.

Of course, the kind of people who would sell children, how could they treat the kids with any kindness?

In the past, someone accidentally uncovered the shady orphanage’s dealings, exposing their evil doings and thus allowing Feifei to be freed. Afterwards, she had moved from place to place, living a difficult life.

Until the end, where for the sake of gaining a position, she became involved with Mr. Pang.

After reading all this, Quan Chengyi was silent for a long time.

Feifei’s heart was in her throat, fearing that after reading these things, Quan Chengyi wouldn’t want to accept her anymore.

But this was also something she had anticipated; after all...

The things she had done were considered unacceptable in the eyes of many.

Feifei hung her head low, her eyes reflecting a trace of despondency.

After Quan Chengyi moved past the initial surge of anger, he looked at Feifei with a distressed heart, his tone filled with tenderness, "Feifei, it’s daddy’s fault, if only I had taken better care of you, you wouldn’t have had to endure all this injustice."

"If I could, I would really want to bear all this for you!"
