Yan Qing and Gu Qingyan were flipping through and sorting out the paper materials piled on the ground.

In addition to Yan Sichen's books on finance, economics, and mathematics, they also found the Yan family's photo albums, and even the awards and certificates that Yan Qing and his sister had won since they were young.

These honors piled up together form a thick stack.

"Is this the legendary child from someone else's family?"

Gu Qingyan looked at the certificate in his hand.

"Your brother is actually a Taekwondo and swimming athlete?"

"Hmm." Yan Qing nodded sincerely, "Except for spicy food, there seems to be nothing in the world that he is not good at."

"He's a very hidden talent." Gu Qingyan sighed, "It seems like he hardly ever participated in the school sports meet?"

"Oh yes, he participated in badminton in the school sports meeting."

"..."

Well, she really didn't understand.

"Miss, look at this!"

Gu Qingyan's eyes were suddenly attracted by a bundle of certificates.

“It’s your father’s certificate!”

Yan Qing turned his head and saw that the paper had turned yellow, with a photo of his father when he was young pasted on it.

The young man has thick eyebrows, a high nose, eyes like stars, clear facial lines, and a high-spirited and high-spirited look.

"Fuck, your dad is the real genius!"

Gu Qingyan couldn't help but exclaimed,

"I think it's amazing that you got into University A at the age of sixteen. Your dad graduated from college at the age of sixteen!"

"Ah?" Yan Qing quickly snatched the certificate and looked at it, "I haven't heard him say that before!"

According to this graduation certificate, Yan Sichen's major was not finance, but computer science.

Yan Qing's mind suddenly went blank.

As far as she can remember, her father taught finance, which had nothing to do with computers.

Even the bookshelf at home is filled with finance-related books, with at most two books on classical music and chess.

Coming back to her senses, she simply spread out all of Yan Sichen's certificates and information on the ground and looked at them one by one.

For some reason, my father's meaningful smile suddenly appeared in my mind.

“My dear, the so-called genius is just the threshold to see me.”

At that time, Yan Qing didn't really understand what he meant.

She thought her father meant that anyone who could get into University A and become his student was at least a genius.

Now it seems... even the genius in the eyes of the world has to bow down at his feet in submission!

Although these certificates are old, they clearly show Yan Sichen's legendary learning career.

Graduated from primary school at the age of seven.

It took me four years to finish junior high and high school, and I went to college at the age of eleven.

At the age of sixteen, he graduated from college with a double degree in computer science and finance.

Then, at the age of twenty-one, he graduated with a doctorate.

It only took five years for Yan Sichen to not only complete his master's degree, but also publish his doctoral thesis!

In addition to these degree certificates and graduation certificates, Yan Qing even found chess and Go professional certificates!

"I can't believe what I saw with my own eyes...this talent and intelligence are simply terrifying!"

Gu Qingyan also widened his eyes.

"I now have reason to suspect that in your father's eyes, everyone else is as stupid as a pig."

Yan Qing pulled out a photo with a pale face.

"Well, there's more. My dad can also play the cello. I can say responsibly that his gestures are very professional and definitely not posed for photos."

This is a black and white photo taken with an old camera.

In the photo, a young man wearing dark trousers and a white shirt is sitting behind the cello. He has a slender figure and an elegant temperament. He lowers his head and plays the cello with a focused expression.

"Oh my god..." Gu Qingyan was amazed, "How many skills does your father have that we don't know about?"

Yan Qing stared at the photo blankly, his heart filled with shock.

She suddenly realized that what she knew about her father was just the tip of the iceberg.

For some reason, a strange feeling of disobedience suddenly welled up in my heart.

"Miss, don't you think it's weird?"

Gu Qingyan felt the same way.

As an outsider, she accurately stated where Yan Qing's sense of disharmony came from.

"You've always said that your father was from a rural background, and because of his good grades, he was eligible to study abroad at public expense, and after graduation he stayed on to teach at University A."

"But the evidence in front of us doesn't seem to be true at all. I won't believe it even if you kill me. Your father is really a poor boy from the countryside."

"And that old lady who lives in your house, and her son... they don't look like your father at all! They are from completely different worlds!"

This is true.

Yan Sichen is a handsome man, but that man’s appearance is just average.

There seems to be no other explanation except genetic mutation.

The more Yan Qing thought about it, the weirder it seemed.

Or rather, weird.

"I've never met my dad's family. We've never been back home."

"Dad... never mentioned that he studied computer science and can play the cello."

"He's never cooked Chinese food. But he's good at frying steak."

Gu Qingyan pondered for a moment, raised his head and said,

"Besides, it's strange that he's good at chess."

"Given his upbringing, shouldn't he be better at chess?"

"Even if he studied abroad for two years, can his lifestyle be completely westernized?"

Yan Qing took a deep breath.

"If that's the case, Dad must be hiding something."

"The thing Jiang Heyan said, which had an automatic destruction program, might have been made by my father."

"That's not surprising, because he originally studied computer science. Finance is just a minor."

She rubbed her temple wearily.

"My father...how many secrets does he have?"

Gu Qingyan turned his gaze towards the small safe.

"Miss, have you ever seen this thing before?"

Yan Qing shook his head, "Never seen it before."

"If we can open it, can we find more?"

Yan Qing supported himself with his arms and sat in front of the safe, and began to think.

Dad, what kind of password would you set?

"Miss, you have to be careful. This kind of safe will be locked if you enter the wrong password three times."

Gu Qingyan reminded,

"By then, looking at the material, I guess even an electric saw won't be able to cut it open."

Yan Qing tapped his head and entered his mother's birthday.

"Di-"

The safe opened in response.

"That's awesome!" Gu Qingyan clapped his hands in praise, "It's true that no one knows a father better than his daughter!"

Looking at the items in the safe, Yan Qing frowned.

She took out the things one by one.

There was her parents’ marriage certificate, her and Yan Jin’s birth certificates, a specimen of fetal hair, and the baby’s hand and footprints.

At the innermost part of the safe was a round stamp and a postcard-sized certificate standing upright.

Yan Qing looked at the seal carefully, on which was engraved a crow with its wings spread.

There is an English word engraved around the seal.

"Featherwit"

It means – “foolish man”.

And that heavy certificate was made of fine wood and covered with metal.

The words "Featherwit" are still engraved on it.

But the name signed on it was not Yan Sichen.

It's an English name.

Yan Qing read it out subconsciously.

“…Louis.”
