Sitting by the table, Zheng Xuan was studying carefully the data of the top 100 contestants, which he had already got before the contest. At first, he paid no attention to them, but now he had been studying it carefully word by word like they were a precious treasure.
When Zheng Hong went into Zheng Xuan’s study, he saw the latter studying a book with great concentration and an extremely serious look. Zheng Xuan had a piece of paper on hand with 100 names written on it, and dozens of names had been crossed off.
Zheng Hong coughed to draw Zheng Xuan’s attention, the latter raised his head and called lightly, “Grandpa.”
Zheng Hong frowned at Zheng Xuan and asked coldly, “I heard you almost strangled Xu Zihan, the one at the tip of your heart?”
Zheng Xuan clenched his pen and said grimly, “He deserves to die.”
Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan mockingly, “Weren’t you quite satisfied with him? You swore that you would not marry anyone but him and would give anything he wanted, didn’t you? And now you tried to strangle him. Are you planning to stay single for the rest of your life?”
Zheng Xuan shook his head and said flatly, “No.”
Zheng Hong simmered with anger looking at Zheng Xuan’s tepid expression.
He caught a glimpse of Zheng Xuan’s neck and asked doubtfully, “Where is jade pendant in your neck? I remember you would carry it with you all the time.” Even during the finals, Zheng Xuan was reluctant to leave it at home, while in principle, accessories could not be brought into the field. Being afraid thatZheng Xuan would cause trouble because of the pendant, Zheng Hong even used his connections to pay off the staff working for the finals.
Zheng Xuan bit his lips and was extremely disappointed. “Seven took it away. He said he want it back. He didn’t want me anymore.”
Zheng Hong grinded his teeth and looked at Zheng Xuan, a senseless anger broke out in his heart. “Things have come down to this point, and aren’t you going to tell me the ins and outs?”
Zheng Xuan raised his head, glanced at Zheng Hong, and said after a moment of hesitation, “I met a companion in the Realm, his name was Seven. I promised I would marry him. I always thought Xu Zihan was him. However, I suddenly found out that Xu Zihan was an impostor and he has been lying to me for whole past three years.” When the narration came to the end, Zheng Xuan could not help but gnash his teeth.
Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan and asked, “Xu Zihan is a fake. Is it possible the real one is among the 100 contestants?”
Zheng Xuan glanced at Zheng Hong and asked curiously, “Grandpa, how do you know?”
Zheng Hong rolled his eyes at him, “It’s not hard to guess. Before the finals, everything was fine between you and Xu Zihan.. But soon after the finals ended, you even tried to kill him. Someone must have said something to you in the Realm.”
Zheng Xuan nodded, “Seven thought it was I who killed Yin Feiquan and took away his power. He wants to kill me.”
Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan in surprise. “Really? Has he taken any action already?”
Zheng Xuan glanced at Zheng Hong and hurriedly explained, “No, I mean, he was not really trying to kill me. He just mistook me. He is still thinking about me in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn’t take a risk to revenge for me.”
Zheng Hong picked his eyebrows, “Since you two had met, you should know who the real Seven is now, right?”

Zheng Xuan shook his head, “I don’t know, he always covers his face.”
Zheng Hong frowned, puzzled, “You have explained everything to him clearly, but he still refuses to see you?”
Zheng Xuan clenched his fists and said in distress, “He still hates me!”
“He hates you? But why?” Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan with a strange look.
Zheng Xuan nodded and said with perplexity, “The day before the finals, I was at Xu Zihan’s home and someone happened to try to assassinate Xiao Mei. And, I… I stabbed that assassin.”
Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan’s pale face and suddenly realized something, “So it was Seven who tried to assassinate Xiao Mei that day?”
Zheng Xuan held his head in his arms and his voice choked with sobs. “Yes! It was me, I hurt him, I hurt him to save his enemy. He has every reason to hate me. I deserve it.”
Fortunately, someone came to his aid that day, or he would have killed his Seven that day with his owns hand. In that case, he…
Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan, saying with a grim tone, “I told you not to go that day. But you just turned a deaf ear…”
Zheng Xuan sipped his lips and said nothing, with a face of regret.
Looking at Zheng Xuan’s sad appearance, Zheng Hong didn’t have the heart to continue scolding him, “Even though you didn’t see Seven’s face, you should have already guess who it is, right?”
Zheng Xuan frowned and said sadly, “I think it should be Mo Yi.”
Zheng Hong was not at all surprised, “The one beside the third Crown Princess?”
Zheng Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
“What makes you think so?” Asked Zheng Hong.
Zheng Xuan sipped his lips and said slowly, “His figure is very similar to Seven. There is no trace of his background. And he seems to have a problem with Xu Zihan. Most importantly, my intuition.”
Zheng Hong could not help but chuckle, “Your intuition? Seriously?”
Zheng Xuan took a deep breath and did not speak.
The grandpa looked at his grandson with a sigh and said slowly, “Shortly before the match, Prince Yu suddenly sent his people to investigate things about Yin Feiquan.”
Zheng Xuan’s eyes widened, asking in surprise, “Prince Yu?”
Zheng Hong nodded, “Yes, I guess it should be related to Mo Yi.”
