Chapter 342 Bloodline

Jiang Yue woke up in Fu Jin's arms, she was feeling lighter and happier. Last night, she and Fu Jin did not stay in their room. Instead, they chose to spend the night in a guestroom.

She looked at Fu Jin, who was still sleeping and slowly removed his arms from her waist. She then tried to move out of the bed, only to be held back by Fu Jin, as he once again wrapped his arms around her.

"Thirty minutes." She heard him murmur, as he hugged her tightly.

In response, Jiang Yue snuggled closer to Fu Jin and made herself comfortable as she inhaled his scent. Being in her husband's arms was making Jiang Yue feel more secure and loved. It was as if, his arms were some sort of cage, which would protect her from the incoming storms. It felt like a tall tree was protecting her from the scorching heat of the sun.

His warmth was a reminder that she was not alone. Oh... just how lucky was she? Not only did the gods brought her back to life, but they also gave her a man like Fu Jin.

Jiang Yue let out a long sigh, as her mind started wondering about her mother and father. She once again remembered the message that had been sent to her. Fortunately, she had forgotten to tell her mother about that message because she was too focused on Li Qiang first, then on helping Shen Rong. Sometimes, she couldn't help but think that everything that had happened so far had its reasons. After last night, Jiang Yue thought that there might be another reason she forgot to tell her mother about the message. And this was it.

Although Jiang Yue loved her mother very much, she couldn't deny that the King's words were very convincing too. When he mentioned about Wang Ruo faking her death to get away from Jiang Yue's father, she instantly felt that her mother's words were not very credible all along.

In her reasoning, if Wang Ruo was able to fake her death once... then... what's stopping her from doing it again? If she was that good in disguise, then... what if... she had also faked her own death years ago and just fooled Li Qiang and Jiang Yue into thinking that someone is after her?

In the first place... why would someone want to kill her mother? Why was she so scared of people knowing that she was still alive?

Jiang Yue was aware that the good night sleep that she had with Fu Jin helped her think things through: like thinking about the King and her father.

From Gideon's words alone, Jiang Yue was able to understand that he knew who was her true father. His outburst showed that he had accompanied her father in sadness when Wang Ruo had left him. His emotional words showed that he was very close to Jiang Yue's father.

So... who had the capability to be this close to the King? Could it be the Prime Minister? From Jiang Yue's research, she found out that the Prime Minister was very close to the King. It was also rumored that they were best friends while growing up.

Jiang Yue furrowed her brows when she thought of the things that she knew about the Prime Minister so far. It was said that he married someone from the Kim family and had two adopted children.

It was never mentioned that the Prime Minister had a biological child with his wife. Moreover, he also never showed any closeness with his wife when they were together. Jiang Yue assumed that it was just because they were in public. However, she now realized that there might be another reason.

It might be because he never loved his wife, and just got married to fulfill his duties towards his family.

However, things still did not add up. Why would the King meet with her, instead of sending the Prime Minister? The King's position was more important than that of his friend's so… why would he risk his safety just to see her?

What about his words, concerning the total annihilation of the Kim Family from M Country? For some reason, Jiang Yue did not believe it when he told her that she was the key that could break the balance between the two families.

She found it almost comical. She was not someone special… Without the money she had, she was not really that outstanding. Even more, there could be more talented people in the Tech Industry than her. So, his words couldn't be true at all.

And lastly, Jiang Yue couldn't seem to wrap her mind on the fact that Fu Jin's ring was another reason the King approached them. The ring was not something special or unique in Jiang Yue's eyes. In fact, she could easily buy that ring at any jewelry store. It might be very beautiful but it was also common.

The most intriguing feature of that ring was the insignia and the letter next to it. Once again, she rummaged every part of her brain, just to think if she had ever seen that sign before. But once again, she ended up with nothing.

Jiang Yue could only let out a sigh before kissing Fu Jin's chest.

"Hey... Jin? We need to go. I'm sure Grandfather and Uncle want to talk to us." She softly said. She was a hundred percent sure that Wang Huo told her grandfather about the things that had happened last night. Because of that, she needed to explain to them a lot of things.

Including her father's bloodline.
