Chu Jiangyi had been a devoted admirer for six years. One day in his junior year, he overheard her saying...
"He's just a backup, how could I ever take him seriously? How could I give...
The words "Confirmed no blood relation" came into view, and Xi Zhihui was struck dumb.
He staggered back several steps, then gripped the hospital tables and chairs tightly to steady himself.
Regardless of the results, he looked at them again and again, thinking the doctor had made a mistake. He pulled Xi Ze back, wanting to find out what had happened.
"Doctor! Did you pick up the wrong document bag?"
The doctor, wearing a white coat, took the report from Xi Zhihui's hand and looked at it.
"That's right! You're the only paternity test result I've had in the past few days, how could there be a mistake?"
Xi Zhihui's last glimmer of hope has been completely shattered. How did things turn out like this?
How could Ze'er not be his son? The child he had loved for four years turned out not to be his offspring. What could be more devastating than this?
"How could this be? It's impossible!"
how so!
Could it be that Huang Jiao'er was already pregnant that night?
No way!
No way!
Xi Zhihui shook his head frantically, making his head shake like a rattle drum.
He absolutely refused to believe that Xi Ze wasn't his child.
Seeing his father's strange expression, Xi Ze assumed he was unwell.
"Dad! What's wrong?"
There was no reply for a long time.
Undeterred, Xi Ze tugged at Xi Zhihui's hand and pleaded, "Dad! I'm hungry. I want to eat roast goose rice. Will you buy it for me?"
Xi Zhihui stared at Xi Ze with a fierce look. He had been worried that Xi Ze wasn't getting enough nutrition, so he had saved all the best food and drinks for him. He never expected that the child he had raised and loved for four years would not be his. How ironic.
He raised someone else's child for four years, while his own two children lived such a miserable life. They still refuse to forgive him. He deserves it. He is heartless. How could he have been so blinded by Huang Jiao'er's words and treated Xi Ran and Xi Yan like this? It's his fault. Everything is his fault. How could things have turned out like this?
Now, whenever Huang Jiao'er thinks that Xi Ze is not her biological child, her face is filled with hatred, and she treats him like a cuckold.
"What are you eating? Look at you, all fat. You're not going to eat unless you're starving. You're just trying to lose weight. I'm broke. If you want money, ask your mother."
"Do you really think I'm stupid? I've raised someone else's wild child for four years for nothing, and now he wants to leech off me? As long as he doesn't starve to death, that's fine."
He has money but doesn't spend it on himself, instead spending it on his wild children. He's not stupid. "There are only plain steamed buns, take it or leave it."
Xi Ze didn't know what had happened. His father was terrifying today, unlike usual when he would buy him whatever he wanted.
He also said that his father said a lot of things he couldn't understand.
"Dad! Are we going to see my sister again today?"
"What are you looking for? Why should she see you? Who are you to her? She doesn't even recognize me as her own father."
"What about my brother? Should we go see him today? I'll listen to Dad and try to get along well with him so he'll like me."
Xi Zhihui sneered and poked his head. "He's even less likely to see you. Tomorrow I'll take you where you need to go."
Xi Ze blinked his blurry eyes and asked, "Where are we going?"
Since learning that Xi Ze was not his child, Xi Zhihui has lost his previous patience with him.
"Enough with the nonsense, just follow me."
"oh!"
...
Three days later.
Chu Jiangyi has already received definite news.
Xi Zhihui has already completed the admission procedures for Xi Ze.
Xi Ran had just finished preparing dinner and came out. Seeing Chu Jiangyi's solemn expression, she placed the dishes on the table, slowly walked over, and reached out to hug Chu Jiangyi.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Jiang sighed, "That child has been sent to an orphanage by Xi Zhihui. The child cries eight times a day, and his voice has become hoarse. He keeps looking for his father!"
Xi Ran looked helpless. She knew that adults shouldn't take their anger out on children, but she really didn't want to see Xi Ze.
After all, it was his mother who framed Xi Zhihui, leading to the tragedy.
Am I cold-blooded?
Chu Jiang was also completely bewildered. "Where did you get this inspiration from? Don't talk about yourself like that. You're great, really great, otherwise you wouldn't have captivated me so much."
"Forget about that child. It wasn't your fault to begin with. The child's situation is indeed quite awkward. How about I help him one last time?"
How do you want to help?
"I want to send that child back to his family."
"You're crazy, that child's identity is so sensitive."
“There’s nothing we can do about it. It’s better than staying in an orphanage anyway. The rich man’s wife disliked Huang Jiao’er, but the child is innocent. I’m thinking of telling the rich man’s mother about Xi Ze’s identity so that Xi Ze’s grandmother can take care of him. It shouldn’t be too bad. It’s better than staying in an orphanage.”
"That's all we can do. Anyway, thank you!"
"that's all?"
"So what else do you want?"
Chu Jiang also pointed to his cheek.
Xi Ran gave him a quick kiss.
