Rong Hong strode in, followed by two bodyguards in black.
Seeing Shen Zhi Qiu sitting safely on the sofa, he breathed a sigh of relief and slowed his pace.
But seeing Shen Yanshan and Shen Meiyan also present, he couldn't help but frown.
During this time, he had thoroughly investigated Shen Zhi Qiu's past experiences. He had initially kept his questions to himself because Shen Zhi Qiu was recovering from childbirth and he didn't want to upset her.
But to his utter surprise, the Shen family still had the nerve to come knocking on his door, so he immediately turned cold.
What are you doing here?
“I’ve come to find my…” Shen Yanshan originally wanted to say confidently that he had come to find his daughter, but when he thought of the paternity test he had just taken, he stopped somewhat hesitantly.
When Rong Hong approached, Shen Yanshan froze, his gaze shifting back and forth between Shen Zhi Qiu and Rong Hong. He stammered, "You, you, who exactly are you?"
Shen Meiyan naturally noticed this as well; the two looked too alike.
She carefully observed Shen Zhi Qiu, Rong Mo, and Rong Hong.
"Mr. Shen, have you ever heard of the Rong family in the capital?" Rong Hong said coldly.
Looking at the powerful aura emanating from the man in front of them, even though the Shen father and daughter didn't know his identity, they could clearly sense that this person was no ordinary person.
Shen Meiyan quickly took out her phone to check, and when she saw the encyclopedia entry, she was stunned.
Shen Yanshan turned his head, intending to whisper a few words to Shen Meiyan, but seeing her staring blankly at her phone, he frowned and nudged her with his elbow, asking softly, "What's wrong?"
Shen Meiyan licked her lips and turned her phone screen towards Rong Hong, "Take a look for yourself."
Shen Yanshan's expression was even more shocked than Shen Meiyan's. This...
Rong Hong walked over to Shen Zhi Qiu, gave her a look to reassure her, and then sat down on the single sofa to the side.
Shen Yanshan stood there awkwardly, unsure whether to stand or sit, unsure of what to do.
"Please sit down."
Rong Hong casually glanced at the somewhat awkward Shen Yanshan, then indifferently swept his gaze over Shen Meiyan, whose face was already flushed, and said coldly.
Then he picked up the teacup that Aunt Zhao had just brought, opened the lid, and slowly took a sip of tea.
Shen Yanshan pursed his lips and carefully observed Rong Hong. Although he seemed very calm, the majesty that Rong Hong exuded in his seemingly casual demeanor still made Shen Yanshan feel a little intimidated.
Seeing that Shen Yanshan did not move, Rong Hong glanced at him, facing him directly.
Shen Yanshan then pulled Shen Meiyan to sit down, as if to help him out of the predicament, "Come, come, sit down first."
“Mr. Shen, I am Zhi Qiu’s biological father.”
Rong Hong crossed his legs naturally, straightened his back, and exuded a noble and dignified aura. He said directly, "I have already investigated. Back then, my wife and your wife gave birth in the same hospital. There was a problem in the middle, which led to this farce."
Shen Yanshan frowned. Back then, he was on a business trip in another city and originally planned to return home a month later, which would coincide with Lin Yunjin's due date.
Before the appointed time arrived, Lin Yunjin suddenly felt abdominal pain. When she was taken to the hospital, the doctor found that the situation was very urgent and the baby had to be delivered by cesarean section immediately, otherwise Lin Yunjin's life would be in danger.
Shen Yanshan only received the news after the child was born. By the time he finished work and returned home, the child was almost a month old, so he was not very clear about what had happened.
"Then where is my child?!" Shen Yanshan was completely distraught. If Shen Zhi Qiu was switched at birth and became Shen Yanshan's child back then, then where did his own child go?
“I’ve found the doctor who delivered Ms. Lin’s baby back then, and I just learned yesterday that she passed away from illness last year. We’re still looking for the nurse from that time. But I was told back then that my child wasn’t breathing when he was born.” Rong Hong’s voice trembled slightly as he recalled the heartbreaking scene from back then.
Does that mean that it might be Shen Yanshan's biological child...?
"No breathing?" Shen Yanshan seemed to have been struck by lightning. The muscles on his face trembled, and his mouth remained open for a long time due to shock. After a while, he shook his head in a daze, refusing to accept this reality.
Seeing that Shen Yanshan was completely bewildered, Shen Zhi Qiu pursed her lips, wanting to take this opportunity to get some information out of him, "Dad, what were you going to do by calling Dean Qian just now?"
Unexpectedly, upon hearing Dean Qian's name, Shen Yanshan regained his composure, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out, "It's nothing, I was just asking if my medical report from the recent checkup has come out yet."
"Really? Isn't Dean Qian the director of the mental hospital? Dad, are you going to the mental hospital for a checkup?" Shen Zhi Qiu curled her lips in a mocking smile, but she also seemed somewhat dejected. Even now, Shen Yan Shan remained stubborn and refused to tell the truth. "Are you still going to keep it from me even now?"
"You...you know?" Shen Yanshan was shocked, a series of shocks making him extremely uneasy.
"Dad, don't lose your composure." Shen Meiyan quietly tugged at Shen Yanshan's arm and whispered, "She might not know the specifics yet, so don't blurt everything out yourself."
Shen Yanshan then calmed himself down and tried to suppress his panic.
"Yes, I know everything." Shen Zhi Qiu's voice was very deep when Lin Yun Jin was mentioned.
Shen Yanshan pursed his lips, his mind racing.
He originally intended to keep these dark secrets to himself for the rest of his life, and would never let Shen Zhi Qiu know about them, but now it seems that Shen Zhi Qiu knows some things.
But why didn't Dean Qian tell me in time?
Shen Yanshan frowned. Based on the money he had given him over the years, Dean Qian shouldn't have betrayed him. Besides, last month's payment had been transferred to him on time, and there hadn't been any unusual circumstances.
“Dad, don’t worry about it. Dean Qian has already explained everything clearly,” Shen Zhi Qiu said directly. “Besides, I’ve already taken Mom away.”
"What?" Shen Yanshan blurted out, "That's impossible! How could Dean Qian not have told me!"
Shen Yanshan immediately realized that he had misspoke.
"Dad," Shen Zhi Qiu said coldly, her voice tinged with sarcasm, "I wasn't sure if you knew before that Dr. Yu said you sent my mother there, but you didn't know what happened afterward. So I still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that perhaps you still had feelings for my mother from all those years ago and wouldn't torment her like that. I even wondered if my stepmother had secretly orchestrated it. But your reaction just now has said it all. Dad, how cruel you are!"
