An Xing hadn't been sick for a while, and after he relaxed, he got sick again. After the drip and some porridge, he fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.
An Xing seemed to have sweated a lot in his sleep. He touched his forehead and felt that the fever seemed to have subsided a little, but his body was still sore and weak, and his head was also aching. He got up, went to the toilet, wiped his face, and then slowly moved to the bed.
I can't walk fast. If I walk fast, my body and head will ache.
After Lu Tianchen followed Chen Ying upstairs, at the door of An Xing's bedroom, he saw the boy in little monster pajamas, walking with difficulty while holding on to the wall.
Both of them knew how delicate the boy was, so Lu Tianchen simply stepped forward, half-carried the boy back to the bed, and stuffed him into the quilt.
An Xing pushed the man weakly twice and complained aggrievedly:
"I'm sweating a lot. It's dirty."
Lu Tianchen: “Yeah.”
The boy's eyes widened.
Oh my god, shouldn't a good brother say "I don't dislike you" or "Not dirty at all" at this time? He said he was dirty, and his brother Shen actually responded!
He is going to lose his temper!
Lu Tianchen did not follow An Xing's train of thought. He turned around and half-opened the curtains, opened the window to ventilate the room, then walked back to the bed, tested the temperature of the cup of water on the bedside table, and handed it to An Xing.
"Drink more hot water to reduce the fever."
An Xing: ...
An Xing took the cup angrily, leaned on the pillow to drink water, and felt that his brother Shen was too straight.
Lu Tianchen frowned slightly when he saw the wound on An Xing’s left hand.
"I'm going to make Xingxing a bowl of sour noodle soup. Tianchen, then you stay here with Xingxing for a while and help me watch him take his medicine!"
Chen Ying took her son's temperature and found that the fever had subsided a lot, so she felt relieved. She trusted Lu Tianchen very much, and after smiling and giving him a few instructions, she left the space to the young man and went downstairs to cook for her son herself.
Lu Tianchen sent Chen Ying out of the bedroom door, then walked back and sat beside An Xing's bed. An Xing moved inside with the cup of water in his hand, not caring about his image, and collapsed on the bed, pushing the empty cup of water away.
"Why did you fall into the water for no reason?"
Lu Tianchen took the cup and put it aside, then asked with a frown.
"We went to the park yesterday and accidentally." An Xing said vaguely, "Why are you here?"
"I sent you a message but you didn't reply, and your phone was turned off when I called you, so I asked Uncle An."
An Xing then remembered that he hadn't even looked at his phone yesterday during the chaotic day, and it probably ran out of battery and turned off automatically.
Fortunately, when he was pushed by the woman from the Ning family yesterday, his bag fell to the ground and did not fall into the water with him, otherwise he would have to get his phone back now.
“My phone, Brother Shen, help me get it.”
An Xing lay on the bed, pointed at the bag on the table and tugged at the man's sleeve.
Lu Tianchen took a look, walked over and took out his phone, took the charging cable from the desk and plugged it in to charge it, and put it on An Xing's right hand side. After sitting back on the bed, he thought for a moment and asked:
"Have you confessed to Uncle An and Aunt Shen?"
An Xing looked at the man in shock.
"How do you know?!"
Lu Tianchen: "I can see that. You've become much more lively."
The little fool didn't realize it himself, but after receiving the appraisal report that day, he became less lively in his behavior and when chatting on WeChat, as if he was suffocating under some heavy burden.
But now, even though he is sick and unable to get out of bed, the little fool is in high spirits lying on the bed, and when he speaks, the tail of his voice rises stickyly, as if he is acting coquettishly.
This is what the little fool is like normally.
An Xing tilted his head, thinking that his brother Chen was awesome. He couldn't help but get closer to the man, completely forgetting that he should keep a distance from others because he had a cold, and whispered mysteriously:
"I told my parents yesterday, and they said I'm still their child!"
Lu Tianchen did not mind An Xing being sick and straightened his quilt. He could see that the reason why this little fool was happy was because he was recognized as a son by the An family couple, not for any other reason.
What a little fool.
The man ruffled the boy's curly hair with a gentle expression.
"That's good."
He looked at the young man with his almond-shaped eyes curved with a smile and picked up the cup on the bedside table.
"I'll go get you some hot water. You should take your medicine."
An Xing shrank back into the bed, took out his phone and turned it on: "Yeah."
Lu Tianchen left An Xing's bedroom and went straight to the An family's study. He had often visited the An family since he was a child and was very familiar with the layout here. When the study door opened, An Zhaoming was stunned when he saw Lu Tianchen.
"Why is Tianchen here today?"
"I came to see An Xing, and by the way, to see you, Uncle An."
The young man walked into the study, holding a Minion cup that didn't match his style at all. He didn't feel embarrassed and said directly:
"I helped An Xing make the paternity test report at the private hospital I invested in. The hospital doesn't know who the sample was taken from. I have already told the person in charge to keep it completely confidential and not to disclose it at will."
An Zhaoming nodded and sighed.
"The stars told me, thank you for your hard work, Tianchen."
The Lu family has a deeper foundation than the An family, and Lu Tianchen is even better than his predecessor. From any perspective, he will not plot against the An family. An Zhaoming watched Lu Tianchen grow up and knew his character very well, so there was nothing to worry about.
It’s a good thing that his little fool asked Lu Tianchen for help. If it was someone else, An Zhaoming would not be at ease.
Lu Tianchen was also observing An Zhaoming's expression. Seeing that the man did not blame them for their self-willed behavior, he felt relieved.
He knew that with An Xing's character, he would never hide the truth. What he was most worried about these days was whether the An family would have any opinion on this little fool after An Xing told the truth.
The An family is living a good life now. Although An Xing is not good at business management and may not take over the company in the future, this is not a big problem. In the business world, there are many people who have no successors. Just find a professional manager.
But if the truth of the mistaken baby is revealed, it is hard to say whether the An family will have peace in the future. The best case scenario is that the An family's child is long gone, so the peace of the An family will not be broken. If the situation is not good, then there may be all kinds of bad things.
For example, the real child of the An family has a bad character, or has an okay character but doesn't get along well with the An family, or the child's adoptive parents are very bad, or there was a conspiracy behind the wrong child being taken away...
Uncovering the truth also involves taking risks. Compared to An Xing who is only worried about his parents disowning him, Lu Tianchen feels that after the truth is exposed, he needs to worry about a series of subsequent impacts.
Fortunately, until now, An Zhaoming and Shen Ying did not blame An Xing, and even felt more sympathy for him because he told the truth.
"Anyway, if Uncle An needs any help, just let me know."
Lu Tian said solemnly.
An Zhaoming had no idea that this kid had already thought about this, so he just smiled and agreed. He hesitated for a moment, then looked at the outstanding young man in front of him and said:
"Tianchen, you said you wanted to get engaged to Xingxing...but now Xingxing's background is unknown..."
"Uncle An, let's put this matter on hold for now." Lu Tianchen said, "After this important matter is resolved, we can talk about our engagement."
An Zhaoming looked at Lu Tianchen for a while, but couldn't tell what he was thinking, so he could only sigh.
"Okay."
Fortunately, the engagement was only mentioned verbally by Lu Tianchen and An Xing. Although both parents knew about it, it was not officially announced. Now that Lu Tianchen said to postpone it, he probably wanted to see what the situation was like at Xingxing's home before making a decision.
It's good now. If Lu Tianchen regrets it in the future, An Xing won't be too sad. But if it was announced at the beginning and the wrong baby was exposed, then their Xingxing would definitely be laughed at by many people.
Lu Tianchen didn't stay at the An family for long. After An Xing took the medicine, he said goodbye and let him have a good rest. Chen Ying brought the noodles upstairs. An Xing ate them in bed and then lay back on the bed, gradually feeling sleepy.
Chen Ying had already heard An Zhaoming talk about the engagement, and now she felt sorry for her little fool. She thought for a moment and asked An Xing:
"Xingxing, do you like Tianchen?"
"Hmm? I like it!"
An Xing looked at his mother blankly and answered as a matter of course.
Chen Ying: ...
Chen Ying looked at the young man carefully for a few times, feeling a little helpless.
"Is it the love that you want to get married and spend the rest of your life with?"
An Xing was stunned for a moment before he understood what Chen Ying meant.
In the previous life, the An family and the Lu family had been rumored to be engaged, but suddenly the truth was exposed, and everyone knew that he was not the An family's biological son, and the real young master of the An family was someone else. His former childhood friends kept their distance from him, and those who used to please him avoided him, and there were even people like Su Yiran who took advantage of his misfortune.
And at that critical moment, Lu Tianchen never said that he wanted to cancel the engagement. His attitude towards him remained the same as always, and he always stood firmly behind him.
But in this life, the truth was revealed ahead of time, and the outside world didn't know about their relationship.
"I think it depends on what Brother Shen is planning."
An Xing curled up in bed and spoke slowly.
"The marriage is for the cooperation of our two companies, but when your child is found in the future, he will definitely inherit the company. If I am still engaged to Brother Shen, then I will not be able to bring such great benefits to the Lu family's company."
"So... let's see what Brother Chen thinks. If he wants to cancel the engagement, I have no objection, since it hasn't been announced to the public. And I have to persuade him. I know he's a good man and treats me very well, but he can't suffer any loss."
Chen Ying: ...
Chen Ying felt that there was no need to worry about Lu Tianchen breaking off the engagement, which would hurt An Xing.
There is no such thing as "like" in my little fool's brain!
