Chapter 46
Siqin was frightened at the resort that day, and Zhu Fu was forcibly sent back to Bach Star with the Zhu family, which was equivalent to suddenly disappearing from her world again. She was greatly affected and had to be sent back to the sanatorium to receive professional treatment and care from doctors.
Fu Fu's family once again settled down in Liyuan Bay.
While accompanying Siqin, I also reconnected with St. Helier to see if I should move back.
One day, an unexpected guest showed up.
The man was wearing the uniform of the Imperial Army. Si Yin had also served in the army before, so he could tell that this man had a high rank, so he saluted him.
However, he had already been discharged from the army before he and Zhu Xiyuan eloped to St. Helier. Five years had passed, what else could have happened?
After returning the greeting, the other party asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Si Yin?"
"I am."
"Someone wants to see you."
"……who?"
"Xu Tieren, General Xu." The man paused. "Sorry, please allow me to change it to Marshal Xu."
Si Yin and Zhu Xiyuan looked at each other in surprise. No one expected that it would be such a big shot.
Even Fu Fu, who was playing with toys in the children's playpen, couldn't help but prick up her ears, trying to hear more clearly.
The man turned on his wristband, sent the address to Si Yin, and instructed, "Please be sure to bring your family with you."
Apart from the meeting time and address, the man left without revealing any additional information.
The adults couldn't figure out why the new marshal could find them.
Could it be that because Zhu Shaoquan originally wanted to curry favor with the Xu family, Xu Tieren wanted to stand up for him?
But if the relationship had really reached this point, why didn't Xu Tieren take any rescuing measures when Zhu Shaoquan revealed his hyena prototype at the ceremony that day?
Later they watched the video of that day. Not only did Xu Tieren not stop it, but he also looked like he was enjoying the show.
It's so weird.
Fu Fu was even more confused. After all, it was he who asked Xu Tieren to give the concentrated coconut milk to Zhu Shaoquan that day, on the grounds that "my uncle likes to drink this the most."
Xu Tieren agreed without any doubt.
They couldn't figure it out at home, and soon the time to meet had arrived.
To show respect to the marshal, the family dressed up.
Especially Fu Fu, who picked out a piece of children's clothing with a small suit and bow tie from the children's clothing designed for him by Zhu Xiaoling, but the color matching was not as dull as the formal clothes of adults. Instead, the collar and cuffs were tattooed with the tail and ears of a Minute kitten that looked very similar to him.
These were all sewn by Zhu Xiaoling herself, with great attention to detail. The cats look particularly lively, as if they are about to jump out of the clothes in the next second.
Fu Fu looked playful and cute in this outfit, but it was a pity that Zhu Xiaoling could only see him through video, which was a great pity.
The Xu family's flying car came to pick them up and soon drove into the general's mansion.
The orderly led them into the main house. As soon as Si Yin stepped into the room, he was suddenly hugged by an extremely warm hug.
Si Yin: "???"
He was completely stunned. The man not only hugged him, but also shook him hard.
At this moment, Si Yin had only one thought in his mind: Wife, I didn’t do anything!
It was not until the "raider" finally let him go that Si Yin saw who it was - Xu Run.
Xu Run's eyes filled with tears, and he patted him on the shoulder vigorously: "Good brother - brother!!"
Si Yin: Huh? ? ? ?
"Okay, why are you all crowding at the door? Come in."
That was Xu Tieren's voice.
Majestic and powerful, the spear of the empire honed on the battlefield.
Hearing his father say this, Xu Run quickly let him go: "Come on, come on, come in, sister-in-law...ah no, professor, come in too."
What a horrifying name "sister-in-law" is.
Si Yin is a little younger than Xu Run. This was known when they first met, and the two of them indeed called each other brothers.
However, Zhu Xiyuan was Xu Run's professor after all, and the kind Xu Run was very afraid of. Even if he had ten times the courage, he would not dare to shout.
What happened today...?
Zhu Xiyuan didn't care about the question of addressing him or not, but even he felt that Xu Run was too excited and abnormal today.
He used to be famous in the college for his high standards and strict grading. Students like Xu Run who got in through the backdoor were most afraid of him.
This fear continued for many years after graduation.
But today, Xu Run not only lost that feeling of respect and fear, but instead looked at him with a strange look in his eyes——
Well, it's like finding a long-lost relative.
The couple couldn't figure out what was going on, so they had to take the child inside.
Xu Tieren also stood up.
Before Si Yin and Zhu Xiyuan could even say hello, the child let go of their hands, happily ran to Xu Tieren, raised his head, and smiled sweetly: "Hello, Grandpa Xu~"
"Hey, you still remember me. You are so polite." Xu Tieren bent down, ignored Si Yin's obstruction, and picked up the child.
Si Yin: "This..."
"It's okay, I like this kid." Xu Tieren looked at Si Yin with an indescribable emotion in his eyes, "Little Si, come here, stay closer to me."
Si Yin still felt strange, but still did as he said.
Xu Tieren looked at Fu Fu, then at Si Yin, and finally sighed, "They look alike, so alike..."
Si Yin:?
What does it look like?
Before I could ask any questions, I heard a sobbing sound.
When he turned around, he found that the people wiping tears were not only Xu Run, but also some servants.
The three visitors were even more confused.
what is going on?
Seeing their bewildered expressions, Xu Tieren cleared his throat and said, "Xiao Si, were you adopted by your mother, Ms. Siqin?"
Si Yin's expression changed.
Si Qin's having a child out of wedlock has always been a shame for the Si family, so it doesn't matter whether Si Yin is her biological child or not. This matter is a secret even within the Si family, and the only person who knows about it outside the Si family is Zhu Xiyuan.
...Why did Xu Tieren know?
The Si family had nominally collapsed when he was a teenager, and except for his mother, he didn't even know where the other members of the Si family were.
Could it be that the Xu family is so connected that they would go and ask all those uncles and aunts one by one?
But then again, even if Xu Tieren has this ability, what's the point of collecting this information?
What good would it do Xu Tieren to know whether he was Siqin's biological son?
He froze.
A bold delusion struck him like lightning.
Si Yin looked at Xu Tieren in disbelief.
Xu Tieren could see that he had already guessed part of it, and nodded, with a barely perceptible choke in his voice.
"Xu Run, go get the things."
Soon, a PADD was handed over.
What was displayed on the screen was a paternity test report.
The above results show that Xu Tieren and Zhu Fu are related.
——This also means that Si Yin, Zhu Fu’s biological father, and Xu Tieren are also blood relatives.
Si Yin opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
For more than 20 years, he has always thought of himself as an abandoned orphan. After being picked up by the Si family, he was also the most disliked one.
When the Si family fell, he had to earn money to support his sick mother on his own, and his life became even more difficult.
But today he suddenly discovered that he actually has a home.
...and such a powerful family.
It's like a dream.
Fortunately, when his mind was in chaos, Zhu Xiyuan was still lucid: "Are you trying to say that Si Yin is your child?"
Xu Tieren: "Yes."
"But you are not..."
"You mean to say that Xu Run is the only child, right?"
"yes."
"He is the eldest son, and I have a younger son." Xu Tieren looked at Si Yin, "This child was kidnapped shortly after he was born, and his whereabouts have been unknown for more than twenty years. I have never given up looking for him until now."
Xu Run rubbed his nose: "When my mother found out that my brother was stolen, she was devastated, and then..."
Few people knew about the disappearance of the Xu family's youngest son, but Mrs. Xu's sudden death from illness did make the news, and even Zhu Xiyuan, who was still young at the time, vaguely remembered it.
"But how did you recognize Si Yin?"
"Actually, I didn't recognize him." Xu Tieren said, "Look, he doesn't look like me or Xu Run."
That's true.
"But Xiaofu looks a lot like his grandmother." Xu Tieren's eyes were filled with nostalgia as he spoke of his late wife. "Xu Run ran into you at the resort that day and took a picture of Xiaofu. He showed it to me and told me that the children of his teacher and his old friends were all this age. I immediately felt familiar with her."
Xu Run found some old photos of Mrs. Xu and showed them to them. Even though there was a gap in gender and age between them, she did have an indescribable similarity in charm to Fu Fu.
"I'm deeply shocked. How could there be a child who looks so much like my wife?" Xu Tieren continued, "Please forgive me, I've investigated your identities."
"You are the eldest son of the Zhu family. I already knew this. But there are many doubts about Si Yin being the child of the youngest daughter of the Si family. I will continue to investigate. But first, I want to see Xiao Fu with my own eyes."
Zhu Xiyuan suddenly thought of something: "So it was you who arranged for His Majesty to see us that time."
"Indeed. If I were to go directly to Si Yin, there wouldn't be any suitable reason. But if Your Majesty wants to meet the Zhu family, it's perfectly normal. I saw Xiao Fu in the conference room that day, and I knew at first glance that this must be a descendant of my family."
Later, he took Zhu Fu's genetic sample and his own for genetic testing.
It was exactly as he expected.
Zhu Fu is his grandchild.
——Si Yin is his youngest son who has been missing for more than 20 years.
Xu Tieren put Fu Fu down and gave Si Yin, who was stunned there, a hug: "I'm sorry, Daddy is so late. Have you suffered a lot of injustices over the years?"
Si Yin's nose felt sore, and his voice choked up a bit: "...I really didn't expect..."
Xu Run cried out for him, tears that he was embarrassed to shed. "I wasn't very old when you disappeared, and then Mom passed away. So many things piled up together, I thought I had a brother. Dad was worried that the kidnappers would come after me again, so he never mentioned it to me. When I was little, every birthday wish I had was to have a brother or sister. I never thought it would actually come true. Woo woo woo... Brother, you're my brother, it's so great..."
Xu Run was the type who couldn't control his emotions. He became more and more excited as he spoke, and simply hugged Si Yin and burst into tears.
Xu Tieren temporarily ignored their brotherly love and turned to Zhu Xiyuan, saying, "Xiyuan, I heard about your brother. I'm sorry that he turned out to be such a person."
Xu Tieren said to him like a truly kind and fair father: "I'm also very sorry that you are so outstanding, but you don't get the love you deserve from your family."
Zhu Xiyuan took a deep breath and said, "...Thank you."
Whether it is thanking him for his understanding, consideration, or sympathy.
All in all, they all deserve a thank you.
Xu Tieren then patted the kitten's head and said, "Don't call me Grandpa Xu anymore. Just call me Grandpa, okay?"
Fu Fu also experienced a huge information update. No matter what, he was sincerely happy that his father had found his real family.
He took the initiative to hug Xu Tieren's arm, his eyes curved into crescents: "Grandpa~"
From a certain perspective, Xu Tieren and Zhu Zhengde are both like each other, as they haven't had a soft little cub in their family for more than 20 years, so they like it no matter how they look at it.
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing. I heard you've left Bach II," Xu Tieren said. "Have you found a new place to live? If not, why not come back to the Xu family?"
