Han Yixian lowered his head and remained silent for a moment before speaking solemnly and earnestly, "Dad, what I am about to say is about you, and also about our Han family. I hope you will remain calm after hearing it."
Han Xiao's heart sank when he saw his son's serious and solemn expression. He said, "Tell me what important matter could make me lose my composure, and I will remain calm."
Han Yi first helped his father sit down and poured him a cup of tea, saying, "This secret was also discovered by Yu Han by accident."
Then Han Yixian described the blood types of all the members of his Han family.
Han Xiao asked, puzzled, "Why are you asking about our family's blood types?"
Han Yixian didn't dare to reveal the truth all at once, fearing his father wouldn't be able to accept it, so he chose to reveal it little by little.
He also brought a bottle of the quick-acting heart medicine that He Yuhan had prepared for her parents-in-law, in order to prevent her father from having a heart attack due to the great shock.
Han Yixian looked at his father and said, "Because it's impossible for you and Zeng Yufen to have a child with the same blood type as me and Han Yikun after you combine your blood types."
Han Xiao, somewhat bewildered, frowned and asked, "What does our blood type have to do with yours?"
Knowing that his father couldn't understand these medical principles for the time being, Han Yixian patiently explained, "The latest medical discovery is that blood type can be used to determine whether a child is one's own. In other words, neither Han Yikun nor I are your children with Zeng Yufen."
Han Xiao's eyes widened after hearing this, and he exclaimed, "How is that possible? Who told you this nonsense? He Yuhan told you. What does she know? In the past, even blood tests couldn't be reliable, let alone blood type."
Don't think your dad is ignorant. I've never heard of determining a child's parentage based on blood type.
Seeing that his explanation wouldn't work, Han Yixian had to resort to a more weighty question: "Dad, do you still remember Wen Jinyu?"
Han Xiao's eyes widened even more upon hearing this name, which had been buried in his heart for decades and he had never forgotten. He then asked in a trembling voice, "How do you know this name?"
Han Yixian handed the letter his grandfather had left him to his father and said, "This is the letter my grandfather left me. Uncle Zhong found me and gave it to me some time ago. You'll understand once you take a look."
Upon hearing that it was a letter from his father, Han Xiao immediately took the yellowed paper and began to read. The more he read, the darker his face became, his eyes widened, and finally his face turned ashen. His chest heaved violently, and his eyes seemed to bulge out of their sockets. He was clearly devastated by what was mentioned in the letter.
He was radiating murderous intent, his aura as imposing as an angry Vajra. After reading the letter, he trembled violently, his hand holding the letter shaking even more. Not only did his face turn ashen, but his lips also turned bluish-purple.
Upon seeing his father's state, Han Yixian quickly patted his father's chest and back, saying, "Dad, don't get agitated. Take care of yourself. I have so much to tell you. You must calm down."
Han Xiao stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, panted heavily, and cursed, "That vicious woman! She's been deceiving me for half my life! This wicked woman used such a vicious trick to marry into the Han family. I, Han Xiao, who prides myself on my lifelong reputation, have been deceived by a woman for so long and so thoroughly!"
At this moment, Han Xiao seemed to have aged considerably due to the blow.
Han Yixian put his arm around his father's shoulder and comforted him, "Dad, don't worry, sit down and have some water to calm down. I still have a lot to tell you."
Han Xiao nodded, calmed down, sat down in a chair, and drank a glass of water. Only then did he feel his dizzy head clear up and his tight chest feel better.
Han Xiao was, after all, a man who had seen many storms. He was used to life and death, so the suddenness of this news was just a bit hard for him to accept at first, but he would feel much better once he recovered.
He calmed himself down and said, "Yixian, have you told me anything else you haven't told me? I can handle it."
Seeing that his father had calmed down a bit, Han Yixian told him everything he knew.
Han Xiao was thrilled to learn that Han Yi was his and Wen Jinyu's son. After becoming pregnant, Wen Jinyu gave birth to the child alone and, having nowhere else to turn, sent the child back to the Han family. She herself then disappeared without a trace, leaving Han Xiao feeling extremely guilty and remorseful.
They should have been a happy couple, but Zeng Yufen and others tore them apart. How could he not hate them? But he learned the truth too late, and he didn't know if he would ever have a chance to make amends.
With tears in his eyes, he said, "The person I've wronged the most in my life is Jinyu. I never imagined she would give birth to a son for me and even send you back to my side. It's a pity that I didn't know you were her son all these years. Now I feel even more sorry for her."
I've been searching for her ever since I learned she was missing, but so many years have passed, and I haven't received a single trace of her. I wonder if she, a frail woman, could have survived in those chaotic times. I don't even know if we'll ever see each other again.
In the end, Han Xiao choked up and couldn't speak. He covered his face with his hands, his shoulders trembling as he sat in the chair for a long time without moving.
It is said that men do not easily shed tears, unless they are deeply saddened. Han Yixian understood his father's feelings at this moment; he knew that his father must be filled with guilt and remorse.
Han Yixian did not disturb his father, but let him vent his emotions. It was better to vent than to keep it inside, otherwise he was afraid that his father would be harmed by such stimulation.
My father is getting on in years and has many hidden injuries, so he needs to take good care of himself.
It took Han Xiao a while to calm down. He wiped away his tears, sniffed, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Yi Xian, do you resent your father for my stupidity, which caused you to leave your mother at a young age and have to recognize that vicious woman Zeng Yufen as your mother? I made you suffer a lot of mistreatment when you were young. I am not a qualified father."
Han Yixian shook his head and said, "Dad, this can't be blamed on you. You were also deceived. It's just that Zeng Yufen and the others were too cunning. Who could have imagined they would be so vicious, using such a wicked scheme to plot against our Han family for decades?"
However, my grandfather also outmaneuvered them, ensuring that I received excellent upbringing as the eldest grandson of the Han family, growing up under his loving care. In that respect, we managed to turn the tables.
Grandpa did what he did back then for the greater good; the stability of the Han family was the most important thing at the time. Telling you the truth was also to avoid affecting you. After all, my biological mother was already missing at the time, and you were on the battlefield. For your safety, Grandpa chose to keep it a secret. Please don't blame him.”
