Chapter 173 Are you going to divorce me?

Mo Anbang rolled his eyes at Mo Chi and said nothing.

Anyone would favor the son-in-law, since the children born will bear the surname Deng.

Mo Chi stood up. "I'm relieved to see that you're in much better spirits. I need to go and keep Rou Rou company."

"Hurry up and leave!" Mo Anbang waved his hand impatiently.

Qiao Siying was overjoyed to learn about Chu Rou's background. She smiled and told Mo Chi, "Xiao Chi, I have to take care of your father these days and won't be able to look after Rou Rou. You should spend more time with her."

“I doubt I’ll even get a chance,” Mo Chi sighed. “The Qi family will definitely try to take Rou Rou from me.”

"Then you still have to stay with them."

Qiao Siying escorted Mo Chi out of the ward.

After leaving the hospital, Mo Chi called Chu Rou to ask what she wanted to eat that night, saying he would buy it and bring it over.

Chu Rou glanced at the three people still in her hospital room and only asked Mo Chi to bring over a meal.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Lin was reluctant. She pouted and said, "Sis, you can't be that stingy, can you? Couldn't you have asked Mo Chi to bring over a few more meals?"

Chu Rou threw her phone on the hospital bed. "You guys go home for dinner. I have Mo Chi with me, but Aunt Qi is home alone. You should go back quickly."

Qi Lin jumped up; she had forgotten about her mother!

...

The Qi family.

Qi Feiyao sat on the sofa in the living room, constantly looking towards the door. None of the three men, father and sons, had returned on time today.

The maid came over and asked her when dinner would be served. Qi Feiyao replied indifferently, "We'll start later."

She knew that Qi Wende had been busy these past two days, busy recognizing his former daughter.

Qi Feiyao was feeling very down.

After twenty-six years of peaceful life with Qi Wende, just when she thought there would be no more accidents, Qi Wende suddenly remembered what had happened before.

What saddened her most was that Qi Wende was already married and had children.

She had thought about these things, but she was young at the time and only wanted to keep Qi Wende by her side. She didn't care about anything else. Her father also spoiled her. He would even pluck the stars from the sky for her if she wanted them.

She doesn't regret it; if she had to choose again, she would still want to be with the man she loves.

She felt guilty towards Qi Wende's ex-wife; she had essentially stolen her husband. But what could she do when she loved Qi Wende?

Qi Feiyao covered her face with her hands and began to sob.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Qi Lin asked as she entered the villa and saw Qi Feiyao crying.

She walked over, put her arm around Qi Feiyao's shoulder, and took out a few tissues to wipe away Qi Feiyao's tears.

Qi Feiyao lowered her hand and saw that the father and his two sons had returned at the same time. She wiped her face clean and asked with a nasal tone, "Why did the three of you come back together?"

Qi Lin blurted out, "We were at my sister's all afternoon, so we came back together."

"Sister?" Qi Feiyao froze. "Linlin, you know everything? You even met?"

Qi Lin nodded.

She then looked at Qi Hang, "Xiao Hang, you know about her too? You've met her as well?"

Qi Hang nodded slightly.

Qi Feiyao felt isolated and targeted. She stood up and faced Qi Wende, tears welling in her eyes, her shoulders trembling. "Qi Wende, why didn't you take me to see your daughter? Am I not worthy?"

“Wife, you’ve misunderstood,” Qi Wende quickly explained. “I just reunited with Rou Rou today. Xiao Hang and Lin Lin knew Rou Rou before, and they just happened to run into each other today. I didn’t bring them there on purpose.”

Qi Feiyao turned to look at Qi Lin, hoping to get an answer from her.

Qi Lin nodded immediately, "I only found out today too. It turns out that Sister Chu Rou is my sister."

"Chu Rou?" Qi Feiyao was very familiar with this name; Qi Lin would mention it several times a day when she came home. "She's your sister?"

“Yes, I went to the hospital to be with my sister and happened to run into my dad and brother there,” Qi Lin continued. “We were planning to have dinner with my sister, but she made us come back to be with you.”

Qi Lin had previously told Qi Feiyao about Chu Rou, so she was familiar with Chu Rou's name and had a general understanding of Chu Rou's character.

Hearing Qi Lin's explanation, Qi Feiyao had no doubts. She slowly sat down and muttered to herself, "So it was Chu Rou."

Seeing that Qi Feiyao had calmed down, Qi Lin breathed a sigh of relief. "Mom, I'm hungry. Let's eat first!"

Qi Feiyao hummed in agreement and, like a puppet on a string, was helped by Qi Lin to sit down at the dining table.

The meal was like chewing wax; Qi Feiyao's mind wandered. She remembered Qi Lin mentioning Chu Rou's mother, a gentle and beautiful woman. Compared to her own willfulness, Qi Wende would probably prefer Chu Rou's mother!

"Mom!" Qi Lin patted Qi Feiyao's arm.

Qi Feiyao snapped out of her daze and looked at Qi Lin, her eyes still somewhat vacant. "Linlin, what's wrong?"

"Have you finished eating? Dad wants us to go to the study!"

Qi Feiyao then realized that Qi Wende and Qi Hang had already left. She put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said, "We're done eating. Let's go upstairs."

After Qi Feiyao came in, Qi Wende took out the paternity test report and handed it to her, saying, "Wife, take a look at this. This is the paternity test report between me and Rou Rou."

Then he took out a photo of Chu Rou, saying, "This is Rou Rou."

Qi Feiyao didn't look at the paternity test results in detail, only glancing at the final conclusion. There was nothing to fake about it; Qi Wende would definitely be very meticulous when it came to paternity testing and wouldn't make a mistake.

She picked up Chu Rou's photo and examined it closely. She noticed that Chu Rou resembled Qi Wende by about 50%, while the remaining 50% of the resemblance automatically coalesced in her mind to form another face.

Qi Lin leaned over to look at Chu Rou's photo, then looked up at Qi Wende, "I think my sister looks more like Aunt Shi."

“Then your Aunt Shi must be very beautiful,” Qi Feiyao murmured.

Qi Lin wanted to continue speaking, but Qi Hang stopped her and glared at her.

Qi Wende cleared his throat. "Wife, there's something else I need to discuss with you."

Qi Feiyao felt a pang of panic. Qi Wende had called his family here so formally; could it be that he was about to announce something big?

Should I divorce her and try to reconcile with Chu Rou's mother?

What will happen to her? What will happen to the Qi family?

She turned to look at her two children beside her. They both liked Chu Rou very much. Could they all be standing over there?

She felt so defeated. Thinking of this, Qi Feiyao's eyes reddened again, and she blinked, tears welling up in her eyes once more.

When Qi Wende saw Qi Feiyao crying, he quickly went over to comfort her, "Wife, why are you crying?"

"Are you... going to... divorce me?" Qi Feiyao asked the question that was on her mind.

Qi Wende was taken aback. "Who said I wanted to divorce you?"

"Yes, Mom, who said Dad is going to divorce you?" Qi Lin asked in surprise.

After asking the question, she turned to look at Qi Hang, who frowned and shook his head.

"Isn't that right?" Qi Feiyao stopped crying. "Then what did you call us all here to discuss?"

Qi Wende handed the bag to Qi Feiyao, saying, "Take a look at what's inside."
