William snapped his fingers, and the guards let go of Gu Sinian one after another.

I stepped forward and said to Gu Sinian, "Han Country needs you, go back first. I can handle this myself."

After saying that, I didn’t dare look at Gu Si Nian’s expression. Sometimes, reality is so cruel.

He had no power to change it, so he could only do what he said, and he had to be commanded by me for the rest of his life with guilt towards me.

"Xinghe, if you are unhappy or feel wronged, I will come to pick you up the first time." Gu Sinian said behind me.

When I raised my eyes, I saw Huo Yan’s dark face. Then, the moment he looked at me, he turned his face away.

William was also cold and could not feel the temperature.

I took a few quick steps and returned to my grandmother.

She gave me a warm feeling, so I wanted to get closer to her and learn more about my mother's childhood. And the seal of the head of the family on my hand.

"Xinghe, as the head of the Xingchen family, we have to balance the interpersonal relationships of various countries, and make everyone have their own characteristics, so that they can be used by us and become a chess piece to consolidate your position. You have done a good job in this regard. Gu Sinian will also be a useful chess piece for you in the future."

Only Huo Yan and I, who were standing next to her, heard what grandma said.

After hearing her pointed words, I also realized my own methods. It turned out that I had also learned how to plan and knew who to use as chess pieces.

"Between William and Huo Yan, it would be good to choose one to be the husband and the other to be the chess piece."

My grandmother’s words made my spine stiffen.

William was far away and might not have heard what his grandmother said.

She said this to Huo Yan who was beside me.

I looked back at Huo Yan. He seemed to have known this would be the outcome. He didn't even make eye contact with me. He just stood beside me and didn't talk to me much. I don't know why, but I felt like there was something different about him.

Or the look...

When we exchanged glances with each other, there was no longer that kind of love, but instead there was a lot more forbearance and escape.

"Huo Yan, thank you for bringing Xinghe to see me, but whether I can secure my position as the head of this family, I still need your more help." After grandma said this, she saw William walking towards us.

And he said no more.

I suddenly wondered if my grandmother was conspiring with Huo Yan.

I guess Huo Yan will never tell me everything until he dies. The same goes for me. He didn't tell me clearly how he planned it, and I didn't plan to tell him about my pregnancy.

Just when I was thinking about how to "retaliate" against Huo Yan, Huo Huahua came running from a distance.

"Mr. Huo, Anna's father is waiting for you in the palace." I don't know when Huo Huahua returned to Huo Yan. When he reported to Huo Yan, he glanced at me. There was no longer the concern and anxiety in his eyes that he had before. Instead, there was a lot more ambiguous feeling in his eyes.

Everything has changed since I last left Intercontinental.

"Why, Anna's father An Feng has something against me and wants to resist my decision?"

Grandma patted the handle of the wheelchair in a cold voice. Before Huo Yan could answer, William said, "Master, I'll take care of it."

Grandma nodded coldly.

William went ahead to deal with the provocation from Anna's family.

Only Huo Yan said, "Master Xingchen, let me talk to Anna first."

When he said this, I thought I had heard it wrong.

After all, Anna is his childhood sweetheart, so will he be more tolerant?

And when he left, he didn't even say goodbye to me, which made me so angry that I couldn't help but clench my hands tightly under my sleeves.

"Are you anxious? Kid?"

Grandma seemed to see my anxiety, then smiled and asked me to squat down.

I squatted beside her, and she held my hand and said, "When you are at a high position, many things are no longer the same as before. If you choose to trust someone unconditionally, you might as well choose to use this person. Huo Yan, you can still use him."

I nodded gently and pushed my grandmother into her special car.

We drove slowly on the highway of Intercontinental Country. Grandma had a high status, so Bird came to pick us up in person in Intercontinental Country.

But when Bird saw me pushing my grandmother in, he was stunned for a moment, and then whispered something to the person next to him.

After a while, someone came to report to him, probably to report my identity. The look in his eyes when he looked at me changed from shock to disbelief.

"Master Xingchen, I am grateful for your help in this domestic unrest. Is Miss Xinghe the heir of the Xingchen family?"

The tone of his voice was testing grandma's attitude.

Grandma curled her lips and said, "Bird, are you so uninformed? Didn't you already know that my precious granddaughter was Chen Xing's child?"

The person Bird cares about most in his life is Chen Xing. He also knows that I am Chen Xing's child, but he did not tell my grandmother about my appearance.

So grandma looked down on him.

“Master, I didn’t know you were looking for Chen Xing’s child. If I knew, I would definitely bring him to you as soon as possible.”

I also find this strange. Why didn’t Bird tell my grandmother immediately when he found out that I was Chen Xing’s child?

"Forget it. Over the years, I have not dared to look for my precious granddaughter in a big way, for fear that someone in the family would harm the child. Now that the child can return to me safely, it is better than anything else."

Only then did I realize that there were many people in my grandmother's family who wanted to hurt me.

That's why she taught me to use everyone as my chess piece.

If Bird really likes my mother, then my grandmother is deliberately trying to make me use Bird as my pawn.

"Uncle Bird's love for my mother lasted until his death, and I admire him very much." My words stunned Bird.

Then I saw my grandmother smiled at me with satisfaction.

"For Chen Xing, I have never married. If Xing He needs me, I will become a chess piece that will stabilize your position as the head of the family."

Bird is very clear and knows why I am talking to him now.

"very good."

Grandma gave Bird a round of applause first.

"Bird, don't forget that you told Chen Xing that you would protect her for the rest of her life, but you failed to do so. She was assassinated. Who was it? It is your responsibility to find out."

I paused. Wasn’t it Huanhuan’s mother who died?

"Those few people from the Han Country are not capable of killing my daughter! Even if there is a traitor in my Xingchen Family, he is colluding with an outsider. This outsider is hiding too deeply, and he is in your Intercontinental Country. Bird, you must find him out for me."

Grandma was almost heartbroken when she said this.

"Those people wanted the family seal in my daughter's hand. I knew my daughter wanted freedom and her love, so I let her pursue them. However, I didn't expect that she would be murdered while pursuing these things. She has already changed her identity in Haicheng, and there are still so many people who want her dead!"

The manipulator behind the scenes is far more terrifying than I thought, and is hiding even deeper.

There is a traitor in the Xingchen Family who has colluded with someone from the outside world. We are now in a very difficult situation.

We are in the light and they are in the dark.

Now that grandma has come out and said she wants to find out the truth, she is in great danger.

"Master, let's go see what An Feng has to say. He just had a big fight with Cyril." Bird gave the guidance, and I pushed my grandmother into the palace of the Intercontinental Kingdom again.
