Looking at Gu Tingjiang's expression, she really didn't want to discourage him.
But……
"Uncle Gu, although it's disappointing, I still have to say that the jade pendant proves nothing."
After speaking, Su Xiao lowered her head in shame. It wasn't that she didn't want to admit it, but really, the matter hadn't been investigated thoroughly; what if it turned out to be a false alarm?
“You are my daughter, what more proof do I need? You are.” Gu Tingjiang said firmly and unequivocally.
Cui Sheng had been listening at the door for a while and had guessed some things from their conversation. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Actually, there is indeed a way to prove it."
His words were like a drop of water added to a pot of oil, instantly causing an explosion.
All eyes turned to him.
Gu Tingjiang exclaimed excitedly, "What did you say? Doctor, do you have a solution?"
Su Xiao's eyes flickered slightly. She had originally been thinking about how to bring up the topic of paternity testing, and then find a way to have one done abroad so that everyone would feel at ease.
With Cui Sheng's words, she was spared the trouble of making up excuses.
"Hmm." Cui Sheng did indeed tell her the technology, just as she expected, and he also had connections abroad who could help.
"That's wonderful!" The surprise was so sudden, Gu Tingjiang was practically ecstatic. He excitedly knelt by his father's bedside and called out, "Dad, can you hear me? We have a way to prove Xiaoxiao is your granddaughter! Dad, wake up quickly, Xiaoxiao is here with you..."
As he spoke, Gu Tingjiang burst into tears. In front of Grandpa Gu, even at seventy or eighty years old, he was still a child; crying was nothing to be ashamed of.
"Uncle, Grandpa, you should go back and rest." It was getting late, and Su Xiao suggested that the two of them go home; there was really no need for all three of them to stay here.
Gu Tingjiang had calmed down, but his eyes were still red. He looked at Su Xiao, feeling embarrassed; he had made a fool of himself in front of the child.
"I'm not going back, Uncle Yi, you should go back first." Gu Tingjiang said to Gu Yi, "You've worked hard today, go home and rest. I'll have to trouble you to bring me some nutritious breakfast tomorrow morning."
Gu Yi was initially reluctant to go back, but after hearing what Gu Tingjiang said, he realized that the logistical support at home was also very important.
"Okay, I'll go back first. Xiaoxiao, rest if you're tired. Let your dad and your uncle take care of you."
In fact, the Gu family had long been certain of Su Xiaoxiao's identity, and they would mention it from time to time in their conversations.
"Okay," Su Xiao replied with a smile.
Grandpa Gu was seriously injured in the fall and didn't wake up all night. When he woke up the next morning, he started vomiting and showed symptoms of concussion.
When Hua Shancheng came to work, he was given another acupuncture treatment, and he felt a little better.
The old man woke up and learned about the events of the past two days from Gu Yi. He heard that Su Xiaoxiao had stayed with him all night, that Su Xiaoxiao had admitted to having the jade pendant, but that it had been broken and could no longer be retrieved, and that there was a technology abroad that could test parentage.
One piece of good news after another came, making him exclaim that the fall was worth it. Su Xiao, who came to visit him, was both amused and annoyed, and then touched.
"Grandpa Gu, are you feeling better?" Su Xiao took advantage of the quiet time when she went to the restroom to stop by and visit him.
"I'm all better now." Old Master Gu said bravely, still smiling despite his discomfort.
Su Xiao sighed and advised, "You should close your eyes and rest more; it's good for your recovery."
“Fine, I’ll do whatever my granddaughter says.” The old man was very stubborn.
