"Xu Kangsheng answered without overthinking: "It seems her business trip destination is a coastal city; I didn't ask for the specifics." Grand Duke Xu felt a chill in his heart, recalling Zhuang Wenjun telling him last night that she wanted to redo the paternity test, and a vague, ominous feeling rose within him. If he wasn't mistaken, Zhuang Wenjun must have gone abroad. Thinking of this, Grand Duke Xu felt his scalp tingle. He glanced at his father sitting opposite him, and remembering his promise to Zhuang Wenjun last night to keep it secret, the words at the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.
"Very well." Grand Duke Xu nodded and said, "Since it's an official business trip, let her go." Inwardly, he thought: *Anyway, if we don't let her make this trip, given her personality she won't give up. Rather than that, it's better to let her give up completely so she won't think about this matter anymore.* Thinking of last night's paternity test, Grand Duke Xu sighed and said, "Dad, please don't take Wenjun's words from last night to heart. I know she has always had huge expectations for Xiaonian. Now that the result isn't what she imagined, it's only natural that she finds it hard to accept."
"Don't worry, I understand." Xu Kangsheng nodded and said, "Not to mention Wenjun, even I feel a bit sad. Thinking that Xiaonian isn't a child of our old Xu family, how could my heart not ache?"
