Zuo Muting stared at the blood in the bowl, waiting for the result. But the drop of blood that was originally incompatible with Yu Huan's was moving closer to Yuan Yi's blood.
He was completely stunned.
Neither of the two drops blended with him, yet both of the two drops blended together.
At this moment, he could no longer stand still and turned around abruptly to look at Master Zuo, who was being blocked by General Yao.
He stretched out his trembling hand and pointed to the blood in the bowl.
"Father, please tell your son what's going on?"
"Why is it that the blood of the two children and the son's blood do not mix, but the blood of the two children can mix?"
"Are these two children not my son's biological children, or do they share the same father? Am I not his biological son?"
His eyes were filled with tears of despair, he couldn't believe it, and his body and head were swaying.
Even General Yao was shocked by this scene.
Yesterday in the main hall, he clearly remembered Lord Li saying that men kept mistresses, so how did it suddenly become...?
Master Zuo lowered his hands and looked at his son not far away.
He gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, you're not my biological child!"
“All these years, I’ve raised you to adulthood so that I could continue the family line, but what have you done? You’ve never had a child.”
Zuo Muting closed his eyes. "So, you're personally taking action, is that right?"
"Yes, since you're not well, I'll take care of Wenxiu for you. Anyway, the child calls you 'Dad,' so it's all the same."
"What about Yuan Yi? What happened to Yuan Yi?"
"Since you refuse to take a concubine, I'll have to find a way to have more children for you myself!"
Upon hearing this, Zuo Muting opened his mouth with trembling hands, momentarily at a loss for words to respond.
He should thank his father, right?
"So, all these years, it's you who's been favoring Wenxiu and Hongyu?"
"You sent Hongyu to serve you in your courtyard because you wanted to have more children?"
Master Zuo lowered his eyes and said apologetically, "Yes."
"Hahahaha, hahahaha, I never thought such an absurd thing would happen to me, Zuo Muting. The wife I married with great ceremony was actually a cover for you."
"I got drunk at the restaurant and was seduced by Hongyu. It turns out it was all your doing."
"No wonder you've treated your two children better than your son all these years, even taking care of them yourself."
Shen stood to one side, holding the jade ring, and wept softly, not daring to look at Zuo Muting.
Hongyu also stood not far away, holding Zuo Yuanyi.
“Son, I’ve suffered a lot these past few years, but I did it all for the sake of the Zuo family bloodline…”
"Shut up!" he roared suddenly.
This startled Old Master Zuo.
He has always been gentle and polite; even just now, he only refuted himself a few times.
"Given the current situation, I have nothing to say!" He coldly stared at the Shen family not far away.
His heart was riddled with holes.
He took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.
“I am the eldest son of the Zuo family, and I have an obligation to continue the Zuo family line. Father raised me for twenty-five years, and this is all to repay your kindness in raising your son for these twenty-five years.”
"Today, your son will no longer stand in your way and their happiness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Zuo asked nervously, "Mu Ting, what are you trying to do?"
"Someone, go and fetch a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone!"
"I have..." Lin Chang'an said timidly from the corner, which startled Zuo Muting.
But he didn't care about anything else, and walked straight to his side and took it from his hand.
Then he placed it on the ground and scribbled a few lines.
Then he walked up to Shen and threw the paper hard in her face, saying, "Shen Wenxiu, let's get a divorce."
"From now on, we are no longer husband and wife. No one will stop you from loving whomever you want or having children with whomever you want."
"You no longer need to worry about being caught by me, and the child can openly acknowledge his father."
Shen grabbed the divorce papers from her face, glanced at them, and burst into tears.
"No, no, my husband, please don't be so cruel to me..."
"Cruel? Are you cruel to me, or am I cruel to you?"
Seeing his son's heartbroken state, Master Zuo suddenly knelt down with a thud, "Son, it's all my fault, my mistake..."
"Over the years, your father has always been sincere towards you. Even though you're not my biological son, I've always treated you like one..."
"Could you... forgive your father just this once?"
"Oh no! You've been plotting against me from the very beginning, and you still say you're sincere towards me?"
"I'd rather you had never raised me and let me die out there!" His life was a joke.
He looked up and tears of regret streamed down his face.
But this person in front of him had raised him for twenty-five years, and he couldn't not repay him.
Then, he grabbed the dagger on the table and slashed it at his own arm.
"No—" several people shouted.
Madam Yao stood not far away, watching all this with tears streaming down her face.
Yao Qianshu and Lin Chang'an were also moved to tears.
Even Lin Wanwan, who is usually greedy for food, stopped what she was doing.
“I’m so angry! From this day forward, our father-son relationship is severed. I, Zuo Muting, have no relation to your Zuo family. I will personally cross my name off the family tree in a moment.”
Old Master Zuo couldn't believe that his son would abandon his family.
He cried out in sorrow, "No, Father can't live without you. Mu Ting, don't do this to Father. Are you trying to kill me?"
Zuo Muting ignored him and walked into the mansion.
Lord Shen was dumbfounded.
His own daughter, is she really going to play this big?
After a long while, he came to his senses and angrily pointed at his daughter, cursing her.
