The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity
Chapter 297 - 295: Who is Qin Zhao’s biological father?

Chapter 297: Chapter 295: Who is Qin Zhao’s biological father?

Qin Siyu and Zhou Rui had only one daughter, Qin Kejing, who now found herself accused of murder. Although she hadn’t been sentenced, she was confined to a mental institution.

Her friends whispered about it behind her back.

Moreover, Shen Xihe’s mother had come to the Qin Family several times to find Zhou Rui, indirectly suggesting they call off the engagement. They hoped the Qin Family would initiate the cancellation, so it wouldn’t seem as if the Shen Family was kicking them while they were down.

The Qin Family had no desire to break off the engagement with the Shen Family. After Qin Siyu’s business ran into trouble, the Qin Family’s fortunes declined by the day. How could they afford to give up the support of the Shen Family, a mighty tree?

During this period, Qin Siyu had been running around trying to find a connection. Finally, he found someone with great power and influence willing to release Qin Kejing from the mental institution.

However, that person took an interest in Qin Zhao, the Qin Family’s eldest daughter who was a budding star.

In terms of appearance and temperament, Qin Kejing paled in comparison to the Qin Family’s eldest daughter, Qin Zhao.

Moreover, photos of Qin Zhao were frequently seen online, including many from ceremonies she attended. Her fans admired her both for her mystical abilities and her beauty.

The interested party had his eyes on Qin Zhao, but Qin Siyu had no way of contacting her. Qin Zhao had long ago blacklisted her nominal parents, leaving Qin Siyu no choice but to seek out Qin Wan.

He wanted Qin Wan to contact Qin Zhao and have her meet with the powerful and formidable bigwig. If Qin Zhao could charm the bigwig, they might be able to get Qin Kejing out.

At first, Qin Siyu and Zhou Rui, weeping, pleaded with Qin Wan, hoping she could help them. After all, Qin Kejing was the only daughter they had.

But Qin Wan also had only one daughter, Qin Zhao.

Qin Siyu and Zhou Rui’s actions over the years had already left her heart cold. Even though they simply said it was just a casual dinner with Qin Zhao, Qin Wan didn’t believe them and thus didn’t consent.

The whole situation was Qin Kejing’s mistake. Why should Qin Zhao have to help? Having committed murder, Qin Kejing had to face certain legal responsibilities.

Qin Wan didn’t even tell Qin Zhao, not wanting to ruin her good mood.

Qin Siyu tried several times to approach Qin Wan, but Qin Wan remained indifferent. She was convinced that Qin Kejing, having committed murder, should be punished by the law, so they ended up arguing.

During the heated argument, Qin Siyu, in a moment of impulse, pushed Qin Wan.

Qin Wan, who had already injured her leg, was further harmed by the push. When Qin Yu found out, he rushed to the hospital and drove Qin Siyu away.

Qin Yu kept asking about the reason for the argument, but Qin Wan wouldn’t tell him. So he called Qin Zhao.

Only when pressed by both, did Qin Wan reveal what had happened.

"She’s insane! Is Qin Kejing his daughter and not Qin Zhao? Qin Zhao is no social butterfly; why should she entertain others for him?"

Qin Yu was beside himself with rage, unable to understand why his big brother was so biased.

In his view, Qin Zhao was a hundred times better than Qin Kejing!

Why should Qin Zhao have to deal with such vile people for the sake of Qin Kejing’s future?

Hearing Qin Yu’s words, Qin Wan’s expression became strange, and she stayed silent.

She hadn’t told Qin Yu yet that Qin Zhao was her daughter.

"Because I am not his biological daughter."

Qin Zhao suddenly spoke up, causing Qin Wan and Qin Yu to turn to her in astonishment.

"Zhaozhao, you... you already know?"

Qin Wan asked cautiously, her demeanor nervous and uneasy. She was worried that Qin Zhao wouldn’t accept her as a mother, especially since she had placed her in someone else’s care when she was a child.

But she had no choice, she couldn’t let anyone know she had a child!

Qin Yu glanced at Qin Zhao, then at Qin Wan, "Sis, are you keeping something from me?"

Qin Wan sighed and had Chu Yan lock the door before she spoke to them, "Indeed, Zhaozhao isn’t my older brother’s child; she is mine.

Because of some circumstances back then, I had no choice but to have her adopted under his name and asked him to take care of her."

Qin Yu frowned, "No wonder you gave all your savings to brother back then, it was to ensure he would take care of Qin Zhao? But why would you have her adopted by someone else if you were always by her side?"

Qin Siyu and Zhou Rui barely took part in raising Qin Zhao from childhood.

At that time, they had not yet separated households and lived in the property left by Grandpa Qin, with Qin Wan always caring for Qin Zhao.

Even after the family division, Qin Wan had remained concerned about Qin Zhao’s well-being.

Until she was diagnosed with cancer, not wanting Qin Zhao to know, which was why she gradually distanced herself.

"I..." Qin Wan started, halting once more, "I can’t say, but now that you all know the truth, just being aware that Zhaozhao is my daughter is enough.

Zhaozhao, you should still call me auntie."

"Who is Qin Zhao’s father?"

Qin Yu asked the crucial question, but Qin Wan did not divulge. She seemed reluctant to mention anything about Qin Zhao’s biological father.

Qin Wan went abroad while young, studied and started a business overseas, and amassed a considerable fortune. When she returned home, Qin Yu was still in school and unaware that she had come back pregnant.

She later secretly gave birth and had the child adopted by Qin Siyu.

Since Qin Wan did not want to talk about it, Qin Zhao was not very curious either. She had only ever been close to Qin Wan, accepting this woman as her mother was enough for her. The father she had never met did not matter much.

When Qin Yu had to leave for an errand, he had his secretary hire two bodyguards to come over in case Qin Siyu turned up again, to keep him directly outside.

"Your uncle has hired bodyguards, you can go out and have fun for a few days."

Qin Wan’s treatment towards Qin Zhao became more tentative than before, worried that Qin Zhao might bear resentment in her heart.

"It’s okay, it’s been almost a week that we’ve been out having fun."

"As people age, health issues always arise, I’m sorry to worry you."

"Don’t say that, accidents can’t be avoided by anyone."

Sensing her aunt’s sorrow, Qin Zhao said, "Auntie, in my heart, you are my family. I’m so glad you’re my biological mother, instead of Qin Siyu’s."

"Really? Do you truly think so?"

Qin Wan held her hand, visibly moved, her eyes glistening with tears.

"Yes, ever since I was little, only you have treated me the best. I often wished that you were my mother, and it turned out you really are."

These were the original owner’s most heartfelt thoughts.

"Zhaozhao, I’ve wronged you. I have not fulfilled my duty as a mother. If possible, I wouldn’t have wanted to have you adopted by someone else, but I truly had no choice."

Qin Wan’s voice choked with emotion, knowing that if people found out she had given birth to that man’s child, they would never allow the child to live!

"Who said you haven’t? You’ve always been by my side, you’ve fulfilled your duty as a mother long ago," Qin Zhao handed her a tissue, "I don’t care who my father is, all I know is that you are my mother."
