Chen Jin was stunned beyond words.
It was really her!

He had flashbacks to the scenes at the bar and the large bed in the dark room twenty years ago.
He had never forgotten the face and the pair of eyes he had seen that day.

She was that woman twenty years ago.

And An’an called her Mom?

Chen Jin’s eyes shifted from Huo Yanmei to An’an in shock.
It was unbelievable.

An’an was 21 years ago this year.
Could she be… his daughter?

Emotions surged within Chen Jin and the thought grew in his heart.
From the first time he laid eyes on An’an, he liked this young girl immensely.
There was something about her that attracted him to her.
Was this what you called… blood ties?

At this moment, Huo Yanmei quickly walked over and grasped An’an’s hand.
“An’an, let Mom take a look.
How’s your injuries? You scared me to death!”

“Mom, I’m fine, I’ve already been discharged.” An’an looked at Chen Jin.
“Mom, this is the General.”

Huo Yanmei looked up at Chen Jin.

Upon seeing him, her eyes narrowed immediately and her entire body stiffened.

It was him!

It was actually him!

Huo Yanmei remembered that particular day 21 years ago.
Her marriage with Gu Tianling was an unhappy one and she was in misery everyday.
That day, she had gone to the bar, got herself drunk and slept with a man.

When she woke the next day, the room was empty.
The man had already left.

She promptly requested for the surveillance camera in the bar.
In the footage, she saw a tall figure dressed in black.
She saw his face too.

She had never forgotten his appearance.

After that, An’an was diagnosed with leukemia and needed a bone marrow transplant from the next-of-kin.
All these years, she had been searching for this man.

This man seemed to have disappeared in thin air and he could not be traced at all.
She had even thought perhaps he was dead.

But now this man was standing in front of her, alive and well.

Huo Yanmei’s face was as white as a sheet of paper as she looked dazedly at Chen Jin.

“Mom, what happened to you?” At this moment, An’an tugged Huo Yanmei’s sleeve.

Huo Yanmei regained her composure, looked at An’an’s confused expression and forced a smile.
“Mom is alright.
Perhaps I’ve just alighted from the plane, and I feel a little dizzy now.
An’an, Mom is thirsty.
Go and get a glass of water for me.”

“Okay.” An’an left.

…

After An’an left, Huo Yanmei looked at Chen Jin.
The secretary walked ahead and said in a low voice, “General, there will be a meeting later.”

Chen Jin waved him away and the secretary promptly retreated.

Huo Yanmei turned around and arrived at the staircase landing.

Soon later, she heard a flurry of steady footsteps.
The person stopped behind her.
Huo Yanmei’s back was still facing the man.
She knew that the man had come.

“Who are you?” She asked.

Chen Jin looked at this woman’s back.
It had been so many years and she seemed to be even more melancholic than before.
She appeared lonely and pitiful.

“I’m Chen Jin and I head the military.” Chen Jin introduced himself simply.

Huo Yanmei looked up and she still did not turn around.
“An’an is your biological daughter.
If you don’t believe it, you can do a DNA paternity test.”

Chen Jin startled.
He had also thought of this possibility but he was still stunned to hear it from Huo Yanmei so directly.

So An’an really was his daughter.

Just now, she had asked him for his status to confirm that he was the General before revealing that An’an was his daughter.
In other words, if he was not the General and merely an ordinary person, she would not have revealed the truth.

This woman was very practical.

“21 years ago, after I finished my assignment, I sent someone to check on your identity but the surveillance camera at the hotel had been destroyed.”

He had attempted to look for her.
Although he had committed the act during his assignment, he was not an irresponsible man.

His wife had already passed away six years ago.

Huo Yanmei’s voice was frosty.
“I sent someone to do it.
As the Young Madam of the Gu Family in Capital, I could not allow such news of my adultery to be leaked out.”

Chen Jin’s expression changed.
So she was actually married.

“I’m sorry.”

Huo Yanmei did not respond.

“Has An’an lived well these years?”

Upon hearing this question, Huo Yanmei gradually turned around and looked at Chen Jin.
“No.”

Chen Jin pursed his lips.

Huo Yanmei straightened her back.
“My husband saw An’an as an embarrassment.
When An’an was six years old, she was sent away to human traffickers by my husband.
Lu Yan saved her, and after that she never returned home.
She had leukemia and needed a bone marrow transplant from the next-of-kin.
I looked for you for so many years but I couldn’t find you.
It’s fortunate that her Elder Brother dotes on her very much.”

Was An’an’s Elder Brother the son of her and her husband?

Chen Jin recollected An’an’s words just now.
She said she did not have a father.
How could she have possibly found him? He had been highly successful in life, and his personal information could not be easily traced at all.

“I’m sorry…” Chen Jin said.

The first apology was for her and the second apology was for An’an.

“No matter how many times you apologize, you can’t make it up to An’an.
You are now the General, and so I hope you will treat An’an well.”

With that, Huo Yanmei left.

After she left, Chen Jin was rooted to the spot for a while.
An’an was his daughter! His heart was filled with exuberant joy.
He would surely make it up to her.

“General.” At this moment, the secretary walked over.

Chen Jin said, “Report to the management that An’an is my daughter.
I want my name to be in An’an’s birth registration.”

An’an was his daughter and the daughter of the General.
Once his name was on An’an’s registration, An’an would enjoy the respect and glory that she deserved.

The secretary said, “General, such a report will require a DNA paternity test.
Should I go and carry it out?”

Actually Chen Jin had already determined An’an was his biological daughter even without a DNA paternity test, but he needed to follow the standard protocol.

“Go and get it done.”

“Yes, General.”

…

Lu Yan had returned to the corridor and Li Si was beside him.
They saw Huo Yanmei walking out from the staircase landing, and then Chen Jin walking out with his secretary too.

Li Si looked at this scene and said in surprise, “Yan Zi, isn’t that An’an’s Mom, Huo Yanmei? Why did Huo Yanmei and General come out after each other? Do they know each other?”

Lu Yan stuck both hands into his pockets and his brown eyes glinted astutely and sharply.

Huo Yanmei and Chen Jin?

What was their relationship?

Lu Yan pursed his thin lips.

“Oh yes, Yan Zi, the General promised An’an to re-investigate your father’s case but did you have any suspicions about it? Your father’s case record was tampered with and it’s very likely done by the General.
Why would the General do that?”
