"Don't worry, I won't forget Brother Wu. By the way, how is Brother Wu's health?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I've already gone for a checkup. I've recently quit smoking and drinking, and my eating habits have improved." Wu Zicong said with a smile, "The checkup said there's no major problems."
"Then Brother Wu, please be more careful." Xiao Chen nodded.
"Come on, brother, let's go to the office." After taking Xiao Chen for a walk outside, Wu Zicong was about to go back to the mall.
"Xiao Chen."
At this moment, Xiao Yuanhe's voice came.
Xiao Chen frowned and looked back. Sure enough, he saw Xiao Yuanhe standing aside, as if he had come to look for him on purpose.
I didn't want to pay any attention to him at first, but then I thought, I might as well be frank with him this time and explain everything to him clearly.
Wouldn't it be better to stop him from harassing me in the future?
Thinking of this, he said to Wu Zicong, "Brother Wu, you go in first. I'll take care of something and come back soon."
"Okay, brother, please contact me if you have anything." Mr. Wu Zi glanced at Xiao Yuanhe, then went to the mall by himself.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Chen looked at his father, not hiding his inner disgust at all.
"Let's find a place to sit down and have a good chat." Father Xiao looked at Xiao Chen for a while, then sighed.
Xiao Chen instinctively wanted to refuse, but he continued, "Don't you want to know what happened after you were born?"
Xiao Chen frowned. Yes, this was something he urgently wanted to know.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded: "There is a cafe in the mall."
Father Xiao nodded and went to the coffee shop with Qie Chen.
The cafe was newly opened today and there weren't many people in it, so the two of them found a quiet corner and sat down.
After ordering a cup of coffee, Father Xiao took a sip, put down the cup and said with a smile: "It seems that we, father and son, have never sat together to drink coffee like this before."
"I think it's better for us to talk about business." Xiao Chen stirred the cup in his hand and said coldly, "Tell me the reason."
"What do you want to know?" Father Xiao's voice was heavy.
"It's what happened to me. What happened after I was born eighteen years ago?" Xiao Chen asked.
"You should know all these things." Father Xiao said, "Your brother was weak after he was born and stayed in the intensive care unit for about ten days."
"You were full-term and strong, so we think you were deprived of too much nutrition."
"Stop telling me these meaningless lies." Xiao Chen said in a cold voice, "These are just excuses you made up."
"Even if nothing else, your wife's hatred for me alone is enough to tell me that things are not that simple."
Father Xiao was silent for a moment. After a moment, he smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not."
"We are a family. You have grown up, and Xiao Ming has grown up too."
"Let's just let go of what happened in the past. From now on, our family can live happily together. Isn't that good?"
"No, I used to have illusions about you. I thought we were a family and you would accept me sooner or later."
Xiao Chen sneered and said, "But later I found out that it wasn't the case. Your wife hates me, even to the point of wishing me dead."
"This is not the emotion a mother should have towards her son, so I came with you today to get the truth."
"What you know is the truth. I mainly want to have a heart-to-heart talk with you today."
"No need." Xiao Chen shook his head. "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. I'm too lazy to check. You want me to go back? That's impossible. I finally escaped from the sea of suffering, and you want me to go back and plunge into it again?"
He stood up and looked directly at Father Xiao: "Besides, your nonsense about me taking too much nutrition might have fooled me before, but now it's just a joke to me."
"Your wife's illness didn't become this serious in just one or two days."
"And one of the two sons she gave birth to was supposed to have died, right?"
"Who told you that?" Father Xiao's face suddenly changed. He said angrily, "Xiao Chen, whether you are willing to admit it or not, you are our son."
"We gave you your life, and your body is filled with our blood."
His voice was a little low and hysterical, and the suppressed roar was full of unwillingness.
The Xiao Chen in front of him was the son who once obeyed him in everything.
Moreover, he was the one who kicked him out of the house, but now he desperately wants to win Xiao Chen back.
However, it was too late. Xiao Chen was growing very fast, and it wouldn't be long before he would surpass the family business that he had worked hard for decades to build.
"So? I gave you three hundred thousand." Xiao Chen spread his hands and said, "Because you couldn't hold back your shudder, you made four hundred thousand. Even working as a duck doesn't make as much as you do."
"What else do you want?"
"Xiao Chen..." Father Xiao's eyes were red. He was really irritated by these words.
He would never allow his son to say such outrageous words to him.
"You haven't answered my question yet, and you haven't resolved the doubts in my heart." Xiao Chen said coldly: "Tell me, am I your biological son?"
"You are. Whether you believe it or not, you will always be my offspring." Father Xiao smiled, a little crazy: "Even if you are unwilling, this is an ironclad fact."
Xiao Chen stared at his father for a long while before shaking his head in disappointment: "Xiao Yuanhe, if you tell me the truth, I will look up to you."
"But now it seems that I was overthinking it."
