The next afternoon.

With one class period left before kindergarten dismissal, Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo secretly slipped out of the school and took a taxi to a professional appraisal agency.

After receiving Ye Nanqing's hair that day, they immediately went online to check and chose the most reliable agency to do the authentication.

Today is the day the results will be released.

The two little ones went into an office and sat down in front of an appraiser in a white coat.

The appraiser took three reports out of the drawer and handed them to the two people.

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo nervously accepted the report, their eyes scanning the text on it.

At the very bottom, it was clearly written—

Confirming parentage: conforms to the laws of heredity, with a probability of parentage greater than 99.99%.

When the two little ones saw this line of text, their little heads suddenly started buzzing, and they couldn't quite process it for a moment.

"Little friend, these three documents are the DNA test reports. The results show a 99% match, which means you and the person being tested are indeed related..."

Seeing that the two children were only four or five years old, the forensic examiner figured they probably couldn't understand the report, so she explained it to them in simple terms.

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo exchanged a glance, their two identical handsome faces displaying unusually complex expressions.

Ji Ziming pursed her lips. "Hanbao, is it possible that something went wrong somewhere in the process?"

Ji Zihan was silent for a moment, then reached out and patted her younger brother's shoulder. "I know you're surprised right now, and so am I, but we used the hair that Tian Tian got and had it tested separately by all three of us. It's impossible that all three of us were wrong, right?"

"That's true..."

Ji Ziming scratched his head, his feelings even more complicated than his expression.

Although they came for testing because they had some doubts, they found it incredible when it was actually confirmed.

The man who had been trying to kidnap Mommy was actually their biological father!

After putting the report into their backpacks, Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo left the appraisal agency.

As the two walked down the street, Ji Ziming spoke thoughtfully, "Hanbao, what do you think happened between Mommy and Daddy? Why do they act like they don't know each other even though they gave birth to the three of us?"

They always thought their dad was a scumbag who hurt their mom and abandoned them, the three children, which is why their mom never mentioned anything about their dad.

However, although Ye Nanqing had deceived his mother, after their observation, they found that he seemed quite devoted to her and did not seem like a scumbag.

He really wants to know what's going on between Daddy and Mommy.

Ji Zihan shook his head. "I don't know either. Mommy and... Daddy didn't seem to have any interaction before. If we want to know what's going on, we'll probably have to ask them directly."

The two little ones stood on the street, looking preoccupied, ready to hail a taxi home.

Suddenly, a black Maybach drove up and stopped in front of the two of them.

Hearing the noise, the two little ones looked up and found that sitting in the back seat of the Maybach were their mother and their father, whom they had just confirmed to be their parents.

Ji Fuling quickly opened the car door and got out, hugging one of the children in each arm. "Zihan, Zimo, what are you doing here?"

Ye Nanqing went to pick her up from work, but unexpectedly ran into the two little ones on the way.

Logically speaking, since school has just ended, the two of them should be sitting in Zuo Yiming's car right now!

"We...we..."

Ji Ziming stammered, unsure how to tell his mother about the paternity test.

Ji Zihan hadn't figured out what to say yet, so he could only make up a reason: "A classmate of ours is sick. We get along really well with him, so we're going to visit him at his house."

"Then why didn't you have Uncle Yiming take him?"

Ji Fuling looked at the two little ones with some suspicion.

Ji Zihan reacted quickly and said, "We're afraid Uncle Yiming will have to wait too long."

Ji Ziming nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, we can take a taxi ourselves."

"That's too dangerous. You can't run around like that without an adult watching you, understand?"

Ji Fuling frowned slightly and gave him earnest advice.

She knew her two sons were very clever and their IQs far exceeded those of their peers, but no matter how clever or smart they were, they were still just two four-year-old children.

If they encounter bad people who use violence, how can they resist?

"Don't worry, Mommy, we'll take good care of ourselves."

"Yes, yes! We'll take good care of ourselves, Mommy, don't worry!"

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo each said a sentence, their voices young but full of earnestness.

Ji Fuling sighed and patted their heads. "Let's get in the car first."

The two little ones exchanged a glance and obediently followed their mother into the car.

The car has exactly four seats in the back, arranged in pairs facing each other.

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo sat opposite Ji Fuling and Ye Nanqing.

The two women pursed their lips, subtly observing Ye Nanqing.

Ever since they found out that this man was their daddy, the more they looked at him, the more they felt that he looked a lot like them!

They thought all handsome people looked alike, but it turns out it's a matter of genes!

Ji Fuling noticed that the two children were looking at Ye Nanqing with a strange expression.

Considering the two men's prejudice against Ye Nanqing, she felt it necessary to ease the tension, so she said, "Aren't you going to greet Uncle Ye?"

"...Uncle Ye."

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo were silent for a moment, then called out.

It feels really weird to call your dad "uncle"...

Ye Nanqing keenly sensed that the two little ones' resistance to him had significantly lessened, which surprised him.

He reached out and patted their heads. "Good boy/girl."

Feeling Ye Nanqing's caresses and the warmth from his large, warm hands, the two little ones felt a little awkward yet also quite pleased.

This feels very different from when Mom usually touches their heads.

The feeling of a mother is one of pampering and tenderness.

This is very warm and makes me feel safe.

Is this what it feels like to be a dad?

It seems not bad...

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two children and Ye Nanqing had improved a lot compared to before, Ji Fuling felt relieved.

If her two sons strongly oppose her being with Ye Nanqing, then she will be caught in the middle and it will be quite difficult for her.

Snapping out of her reverie, Ji Fuling suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the man beside her. "By the way, what were you about to tell me?"

He had something to say, but she happened to spot Zihan and Zimo, so the conversation was interrupted.

Ye Nanqing held Ji Fuling's hand, gently stroking the diamond ring on her ring finger, and slowly said, "Come back to the old house with me tomorrow. I plan to talk to some of the elders about our marriage."

"ah?"

Ji Fuling was taken aback. "Isn't this a bit too fast?"

Ye Nanqing glanced at her with a deep, unsettling gaze. "You've already put the ring on, and you still think it's too fast?"

"But……"

Ji Fuling hesitated for a moment before speaking her concerns, "My grandfather and your parents still don't know about the existence of the three children. If they did find out, would your parents mind?"

Hearing her concerns, Ye Nanqing chuckled softly, "Silly girl, it's me who wants to marry you, not them. Whether they mind or not is irrelevant. I'm just informing them, not asking for their opinion, understand?"

No one could stop him from marrying her.

Even his parents are not allowed.

Hearing Ye Nanqing's firm words, Ji Fuling's concerns were instantly dispelled, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

She couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile and nod.

Seeing her response, Ye Nanqing's usually cold and aloof expression softened with a smile.

He took her hand, lowered his head, and kissed the back of her fair hand. "Don't worry, I've got everything covered. You just need to stay by my side."

Ji Fuling's cheeks flushed slightly, her heart pounding wildly as if a deer were running through her chest.

Why can this man make every word sound like a love confession?

It made her heart flutter, and she gradually fell for it...

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo, who were forced to eat dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), were speechless.

Ye Nanqing's words not only dispelled Ji Fuling's concerns, but also eliminated the two little ones' wariness and doubts about him.

They could sense that the man was sincere towards their mother and genuinely wanted to marry her.

The two little ones exchanged a glance and had an idea.

They decided that when they proposed marriage tomorrow, they would reveal the results of the paternity test to find out what really happened back then...
