Although Xi Quan hadn't said anything yet, Su Zhe could roughly tell what Xi Quan was thinking. He smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Go ahead and say it. Now that things are like this, what else can't I bear?"
If Su Zhe hadn't found out, Xi Quan naturally wouldn't have said anything. But now that Su Zhe knows, it would be pretentious for him not to say anything.
Actually, Xi Quan isn't completely silent right now; he's just thinking about how to phrase it.
Before he could think of what to say, upon hearing Su Zhe's words, Xi Quan thought for a moment and then decided not to hide anything, saying directly, "Quan Zhen's current situation has been greatly helped by the evidence provided by your half-sister."
"Heh, we used to be half-siblings, but who knows now?" Su Zhe said self-deprecatingly.
Xi Quan blinked: "She used to be your half-sister, and she still is. The only difference is who your biological mother is." Xi Quan explained: "As you know, your biological mother is not Quan Zhen, but your father is still the same father, so it makes sense that you and Su Mei are half-siblings."
“Then my biological mother…” Su Zhe would ask this question almost every time Xi Quan said a sentence. After asking, he felt that this was not good, so he laughed self-deprecatingly and shrugged: “I won’t ask anymore, you can ask.”
Xi Quan didn't mind whether Su Zhe interrupted him every time he spoke, since it concerned Su Zhe's own background, and it was natural for Su Zhe to care.
However, since Su Zhe had said that, Xi Quan naturally wouldn't say anything more. After glancing at Su Zhe, Xi Quan continued, "Your biological mother is no longer alive."
After Su Zhe's biological mother died, Su Zhe's biological father took him back. At that time, Quan Zhen was already with Su Zhe. Quan Zhen didn't even want his own child, Liang Youjie, so how could he raise someone else's child?
Quan really doesn't want to support her.
However, because Su Zhe's biological father paid close attention to Su Zhe, and because his biological father was somewhat sexist, he insisted on divorcing Su Mei's biological mother after learning that he had a son.
Even though Su Zhe has a hereditary disease, he doesn't care.
However, Su Mei always misunderstood that her father and mother divorced because of Quan Zhen, but that was not the case.
However, Quan Zhen never explained it, because if she did, she would have to talk about Su Zhe's background. For a long time, Su Zhe could be considered Quan Zhen's talisman.
At first, Quan Zhen didn't want to raise Su Zhe. Later, due to an accident, Quan Zhen and Su Zhe's father were betrayed. Quan Zhen was the one who orchestrated the whole thing, but Su Zhe's father took the blame for everything, saying that the child regarded Quan Zhen as his own mother. The child was so young, and without his own mother, he couldn't be left without two people to raise him. So he took the blame for everything.
This made Quan Zhen realize that if she treated Su Zhe well and made Su Zhe develop feelings for her, Su Zhe's biological father would never use her as a scapegoat.
Because of his many bad deeds, Quan Zhen was terrified, so after learning what Su Zhe's biological father was thinking, he treated Su Zhe very well.
In fact, Quan Zhen did not do anything wrong, even though Su Mei later produced something similar to her father's notebook, confirming some of the bad things Quan Zhen had done.
But those things weren't really a big deal compared to everything Quan Zhen had ever done.
After listening to Xi Quan's words, Su Zhe clenched his fists tightly, his eyes bloodshot, and he was extremely angry.
Xi Quan glanced at Su Zhe indifferently, then finally focused his gaze on Su Zhe's tightly clenched fists: "Be careful not to prick your hands with your fingernails."
Su Zhe has hemophilia, so any bleeding is a troublesome matter to stop. For others, a little blood from scratching their finger is no big deal.
But for Su Zhe, it could be the death of him.
In fact, Su Zhe's direct attack was very short. Although his fist was clenched tightly, the chances of the situation Xi Quan described were extremely slim.
But even though it was a tiny bit, Su Zhe still subconsciously loosened his fist, remained silent for a moment, and then laughed—a laugh that was extremely sarcastic.
She was trying to be a good son and fulfill her filial duty, but now Quan Zhen's current situation is not enough to punish what she did in the past. How ironic.
After laughing to himself for a while, tears welled up in his eyes. Su Zhe wiped away his tears and looked at Xi Quan and the old man who were watching him with concern. Su Zhe blinked, and a strange and complicated emotion welled up in his heart again.
Knowing about one's origins naturally evokes anger.
But to be honest, Xi Quan and the old man were very good to him. Although the old man was not good with words, he cared... Thinking of this, Su Zhe looked at Xi Quan and the old man again to confirm that the emotion in their eyes was concern.
Trying to calm himself down, Su Zhe remained silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered something: "But when your father passed away, didn't he say it was because he wanted you to be my blood bank? We're not related by blood, how could she..."
This is a misunderstanding. Everyone thought that was the case at the time. In fact, it was just a gesture by Quan Zhen to let Su Zhe's biological father see that she treated Su Zhe very well.
Although Xi Quan and Su Zhe are not related by blood, Quan Zhen and the others had consulted the doctor beforehand, and as long as their blood types were compatible and there was no rejection, it would be fine.
That's how the events of that year came about.
The price of what happened back then was the death of Xi Quan's father, which was an accident, but getting Su Zhe's biological father imprisoned was the best thing that could have happened to Quan Zhen.
Quan Zhen thought that way no one would know what she had done, because she was still supporting Su Zhe, and Su Zhe's biological father wouldn't reveal Quan Zhen's existence.
But I never expected what would happen later...
So the saying "the net of justice is vast, yet nothing escapes it" is true.
Su Zhe asked, "Did my biological mother die because of Quan Zhen?"
Xi Quan shook his head: "According to what I've found out, it's not that. It's because my health wasn't good when I gave birth to you, and then..."
"Does my so-called sister know about this?" Su Zhe asked again.
Xi Quan shook his head again: "She doesn't know. If she did, you..."
Although Xi Quan didn't say what he was going to say next, Su Zhe understood what Xi Quan wanted to express.
While Quan Zhen may have gotten what she deserved, Su Mei and Xi Quan's revenge against Quan Zhen stemmed primarily from Su Mei's belief that Quan Zhen had ruined her parents' relationship.
If she finds out that while Quan Zhen certainly deserves her punishment, Su Zhe's biological mother is the real culprit who destroyed her parents' marriage, then Su Zhe's future days may not be easy.
In fact, Xi Quan could have revealed Su Zhe's background, but he didn't.
Su Zhe actually knew why, because they considered him a brother.
Before this, Su Zhe wanted to help Quan Zhen, but he didn't actually intend to oppose Xi Quan. He just wanted to do his filial duty.
He thought it was nothing serious, but compared to Xi Quan and the old man's attitude towards him, he seemed to be very ignorant.
Taking a deep breath, Su Zhe looked at Xi Quan: "Ask me anything you want to ask. I will answer anything I know."
