Chapter 667 Confrontation

Wen Liang looked him up and down, and only noticed that he had a new hairstyle, was thinner, and looked a little tired, but there was nothing else wrong with him. He guessed that there was nothing serious.

Huo Dongcheng smiled slightly and waved his hand, "It's okay, just a minor injury, it's nothing serious."

"That's good. You came at the right time. Let's sit down and talk while eating." Wen Liang said in a calm voice.

Huo Dongcheng nodded and sat down at the dining table. His aunt brought him a set of bowls and chopsticks and went to prepare two more dishes.

Mason sat next to him excitedly, asking questions all the time.

Huo Dongcheng answered patiently, occasionally making Mason laugh.

Wen Liang looked at this scene with mixed feelings.

She carefully observed Huo Dongcheng's expression and could not see any impatience or pretense.

As if Mason were really his child.

After dinner, Mason was taken to take a nap by his aunt, leaving only Wen Liang and Huo Dongcheng in the living room.

The two moved to the sofa in the living room and the aunt served them tea.

Wen Liang then asked, "Brother Dongcheng, the police said you're missing. What happened? Where have you been these past few days?"

"Someone attacked me under the pretext of a fight and tracked me down. I was injured and had to hide temporarily." Huo Dongcheng briefly mentioned it and changed the subject, "Thank you for taking care of Mason these past few days."

"It's not hard, it's what I should do." Wen Liang smiled.

Huo Dongcheng put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Wen Liang gently, and said with a hint of concern, "Xiao Ding said you were anxious to see me, is there something wrong?"

Wen Liang took a deep breath, looked directly into his eyes, and tried to catch a clue from his expression.

"Brother Dongcheng, I do have something I want to ask you."

Huo Dongcheng nodded slightly, motioning her to continue.

"Mason...is he really our child?" Wen Liang's voice was very soft, but every word was clear.

Huo Dongcheng's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

He was silent for a moment, then smiled at Wen Liang, his voice still gentle, "Of course, Aliang, why do you have such a question?"

"I first learned about this from that strange man. He was caught a few days ago, but he said that Mason was not our child...it was..." Wen Liang did not mention Fu Zheng.

"What is it?"

"You just found it randomly."

"Nonsense."

Huo Dongcheng sneered, his expression calm, "It's not surprising. People like this are paid to do things, so naturally they might turn against us for money."

“…”

It seems to make some sense.

But after thinking about it carefully, Wen Liang said, "Betrayal? What does Brother Dongcheng mean by that...?"

"Someone is using him to sow discord between us."

“…”

Seeing Huo Dongcheng's confident look, Wen Liang's heart was actually a little shaken.

Seeing Wen Liang was silent, Huo Dongcheng continued, "After taking Mason here, I did a test with him, and he is indeed my child... If you don't believe me, you can do a paternity test with Mason again."

Huo Dongcheng's words made Wen Liang fall into silence for a moment.

His tone was firm and calm, as if everything was under his control, without any panic or guilt.

Wen Liang couldn't help but start to doubt whether he had really misunderstood him.

Her voice was hesitant. "I've already sent the sample."

"when?"

"yesterday."

"If we expedite it, we can see the results today."

"……yes."

"Then I'll wait for the result with you, so you can rest assured."

Wen Liang curled his lips, "Brother Dongcheng, I don't disbelieve you, it's just..."

Perhaps she should wait for the paternity test results.

Huo Dongcheng smiled slightly, reached out and gently patted the back of her hand, his tone gentle but firm, "Aliang, I understand how you feel. As a mother, you have the right to know the truth. The paternity test is undoubtedly the most direct evidence. You are not wrong."

Wen Liang looked into Huo Dongcheng's eyes, trying to find a flaw in them, but his eyes were clear and calm, without any evasion.

She took a deep breath and nodded, "Thank you, Dongcheng brother."

"Aliang, you said the man who told you everything was caught. Where is he? I want to ask him who ordered him to sow discord between you and Mason."

"...He...is not in the capital at the moment."

"Not in the capital? Could it be... in Fu Zheng's hands?"

"……Um."

Hearing this, Huo Dongcheng raised his eyebrows. "Did Fu Zheng catch him? In other words, it was Fu Zheng who interrogated him? And it was Fu Zheng who told you the results of the interrogation?"

"……yes."

Huo Dongcheng paused, lowered his eyes, and sighed, "Aliang, logically, I shouldn't interfere in your affairs, but for Mason, I must remind you that no man would not feel resentful if his wife had a child with someone else."

Wen Liang was silent.

She couldn't help but think that Fu Zheng had known about her giving birth abroad for a long time and had been secretly looking for the child.

If he finds the child, will he tell her the truth, or will he hide the child and never let him appear in front of her?

Huo Dongcheng laughed again, "However, it is also possible that I am being petty. Fu Zheng might have been fooled by that person."

“…”

Before Wen Liang knew what to say, he heard the doorbell ring outside.

The visual screen showed that it was Fu Zheng outside.

Wen Liang stood up and opened the door, and Huo Dongcheng drank a sip of tea as if nothing had happened.

Seeing Wen Liang, Fu Zheng subconsciously wanted to hold her hand, "Aliang."

Wen Liang dodged.

Fu Zheng felt something was wrong. When he looked up, he saw Huo Dongcheng sitting in the living room.

Their eyes met, and Huo Dongcheng smiled at him, "Mr. Fu."

Fu Zheng raised an eyebrow and walked into the living room. "Is President Huo here too? I heard that President Huo has been missing for a few days. It's really gratifying that he's back safely."

"Thanks to Mr. Fu, please sit down." Huo Dongcheng put down the teacup, asked his aunt to serve tea to Fu Zheng, and refilled a cup for himself.

"I thought Mr. Huo would be very busy."

"I'm really busy, but since Aliang wanted to see me, I had to make time to come." Huo Dongcheng smiled and glanced at Wen Liang. "Just now I heard Aliang say that it was Mr. Fu who caught that guy?"

Hearing this, Fu Zheng knew that Wen Liang had already talked to Huo Dongcheng.

"Yes, he is indeed in my hands. It is necessary to let Wen Liang know the truth he confessed."

"The truth?" Huo Dongcheng smiled. "The testimony of such a fickle person is unreliable."

Fu Zheng looked directly at Huo Dongcheng. "Mr. Huo, do you mean he's lying? Why would he lie?"

"I don't know about that. Maybe someone instructed him to do it." Huo Dongcheng said calmly, "Of course, I know best whether Mason is our child or not. Mr. Fu, you can't just believe it rashly just because it suits your wishes."

"you……"

Huo Dongcheng's words made the atmosphere tense in an instant.

Fu Zheng glanced at Wen Liang and sneered, "I think Mr. Huo wants to say that it was me who ordered it, right?"
