When I first heard that she went to Bailu Clothing to find Yan Meng, I didn't understand. The funeral had been over for a while. If Zhao Xian wanted to settle the score with Yan Meng, she would have gone there long ago and would not have waited until now.
But now that the public opinion storm has passed, Zhao Xian suddenly did a paternity test again. Could it be that she has begun to doubt Lu Jing?
I asked tentatively, "Didn't you say before that you believed in Uncle Lu?"
Zhao Xian smiled bitterly.
"I used to trust him 100%. I thought I knew everything about him. Even the moment he moved his fingers, I knew what he was thinking."
"I'm too self-righteous." Zhao Xian's eyes drooped slightly, a hint of self-mockery in her eyes. "When I was sorting through his belongings, I found an old photo he'd treasured at the bottom of a box."
Zhao Xian's voice choked, and despite trying to control herself, she still trembled slightly. "It's a photo of him and Lou Xiaoyun. On the back of the photo, there's a line of words he wrote himself."
"My beloved."
Zhao Xian squeezed out these four words from between her teeth, her face turning pale.
This makes me sigh.
All speculations are nothing compared to these four words.
Lu Jing and Lou Xiaoyun once truly loved each other.
I calmed down and tried to comfort Zhao Xian: "Even if you were in love before, that was before you married him. It doesn't prove that Yan Meng is their child."
Zhao Xian took a deep breath and said, "So I took Yan Meng's hair for DNA testing. Once the results come out, everything will be revealed."
"What about after the results come out?" I asked thoughtfully, "What are you going to do?"
Once the speculation is verified and the facts are true, it will be a heavy blow to both the Yan family and the Lu family.
Zhao Xian's eyes darkened slightly. After a moment of silence, she looked up at me and said, "I just want an answer in my heart. As for the result of this answer, I will continue to conceal it."
She would be in pain, but she didn't want Lu Zhiyuan to suffer with her.
"I don't want Zhiyuan to get hurt, and I don't want him to resent his father in his heart. So, Xiaoshan, are you willing to help me?"
I was stunned. What was I helping her with? Was I trying to hide the truth from Lu Zhiyuan?
But he had the right to know.
My throat was choked and I was struggling inside, unable to give her an answer.
Zhao Xian looked at me earnestly, which made me feel more stressed. I opened my mouth and was about to answer, but saw Lu Zhiyuan coming over with two bottles of water.
"Isn't it your turn yet?" Lu Zhiyuan asked, handed the opened water to Zhao Xian, and glanced towards the clinic.
"It's almost there." I replied perfunctorily, but I felt inexplicably relieved.
I can't make any promises to Zhao Xian. Once I make a promise, I must keep it.
When I came to my senses, a bottle of opened water was placed in front of me.
"Are you thirsty too? Have a drink."
I took the water and said thank you hastily.
Zhao Xian was called into the clinic, and Lu Zhiyuan and I were by her side.
After a detailed examination, the doctor prescribed some medicine and said, "There's no bone damage, just a little skin scraping. Go back and apply the medicine on time, and don't get it wet to avoid infection."
Lu Zhiyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Zhao Xian had really sprained her waist when she fell.
She's fine, and I don't need to follow her around.
When we said goodbye downstairs at the hospital, Zhao Xian held my hand and thanked me repeatedly: "Xiao Shan, thank you for accompanying me on this trip. I will remember everything you did for Zhi Yuan, and I will always be grateful to you."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red.
This was the first time I saw Zhao Xian with tears in her eyes, but I didn’t feel much touched.
