When Han Yikun returned to the Han family home, Han Xiao was sitting on the sofa in the living room, drinking the fine tea that his daughter-in-law had given him.
As soon as Han Yikun entered the living room, he asked directly, "Dad, why did you let someone else use our house?"
Han Xiao looked up and glanced indifferently at Han Yikun, who was looking anxious. "It's my family's house. I can do whatever I want with it. What's it to you?"
Han Yikun said anxiously, "Dad, I'm also a member of the Han family, how can this have nothing to do with me?"
Han Xiao did not answer Han Yikun's question immediately. Instead, he took a leisurely sip of tea and said, "Haven't you heard the rumors circulating in Kyoto lately? You are not my son at all. You were born to your mother and someone else, your cousin."
Therefore, you are not a member of the Han family at all, and naturally have no right to interfere in the Han family's affairs. I hope you recognize this fact.
Han Yikun was shocked when he learned about his mother's and his cousin Liu Zhongquan's scandalous affair; he couldn't believe it was true.
But many people witnessed it firsthand, leaving him no choice but to believe it, and he felt ashamed to have Zeng Yufen as his mother. Later, he heard some rumors about his and his sister's background, which he simply refused to believe were true.
How could he not be a child of the Han family? How could he be Liu Zhongquan's child?
Now that he heard his father say this, he realized that those rumors were probably true.
But he was still unwilling to accept it. "Dad, that can't be true. How could I not be your son?"
Han Xiao sighed, knowing that Han Yikun couldn't accept it right away, and said, "Medically speaking, it's impossible for Zeng Yufen and me to have a child with your blood type. Besides, Liu Zhongquan and Zeng Yufen have both personally acknowledged that you are their child."
Although I was deceived for decades, you knew nothing about it before, and I don't want to hold a grudge against you for them. After all, you've been my son for over twenty years.
However, you eventually developed ill intentions, so you are not entirely innocent. Although I will not hold your biological parents accountable, you must take responsibility for your actions.
Leave Kyoto; it's for your own good. Be a good person from now on, don't be unrealistic or harbor malicious intentions. In life, whatever you achieve, you'll only feel at peace with yourself if you've obtained it through your own efforts and honest means.
Although Han Yikun was unwilling, he had no choice but to obey the arrangement and be transferred to another place.
Without the protection of the Han family, his situation was like falling from heaven to hell, and he knew this was his punishment.
Just as Han Xiao had finished dealing with Han Yikun, his younger brother Han Sheng, who had been away from Kyoto for many years, suddenly returned.
When Han Xiao got home from get off work that evening and had dinner, he sat in the living room drinking tea. He was a little surprised to see Han Sheng walk in and asked, "Second brother, why are you back?"
Han Sheng walked up to Han Xiao and sat down on the sofa, saying, "Brother, such a big thing happened at home and you didn't even tell me. I only heard about it from other people. As soon as I heard about Zeng Yufen, I rushed back."
Han Xiao poured Han Sheng a cup of tea and said, "This is nothing serious. I've known about Zeng Yufen and Liu Zhongquan's affair for a long time, but I just haven't revealed it."
"This time, their scandalous affair was exposed by Liu Zhongquan's wife, Fan Guoying, and I couldn't cover it up no matter what I wanted."
Han Sheng said angrily, "I never expected Zeng Yufen to be this kind of person, and Liu Zhongquan too. You trusted him so much, and he treated you like this. We must not tolerate him."
Han Xiao took a sip of tea and said, "I've already dealt with their matter. Zeng Yufen and I are divorced, and Liu Zhongquan has received his due punishment. That's the end of it. There's no need to dwell on it any further."
Han Xiao didn't want Han Sheng to get involved in this matter, nor did he want his second brother to interfere in his affairs.
Han Sheng's eyes flickered after hearing Han Xiao's words, and he said, "They're lucky that Big Brother is so magnanimous."
After speaking, Han Sheng hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Brother, I heard that Yi Kun and Yi Ping are not children of our Han family. What about Yi Xian?"
Han Xiao said, "Do you think he's my son? Anyone with eyes can see that he's my son."
Han Sheng frowned and said, "But Zeng Yufen had an affair with Liu Zhongquan decades ago. Could there be a problem with Yi Xian's background as well?"
Han Xiao glanced coldly at Han Sheng and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I know better than anyone that Yi Xian is my son."
Han Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good. Having such an excellent son as Yixian is enough for our elder brother."
I heard when I got back that my older brother lent out the family house? What are his plans?
Han Xiao glanced at Han Sheng, his eyes darkening, and said, "I'm planning to be transferred to L Province. The house at home is just sitting empty anyway, so I've kept two courtyards for living and lent the other courtyards to others as office space."
Han Sheng seemed a little anxious and said, "Brother, even if no one lives in this house for the time being, we can't lend it out. Once the house is lent out, it will be difficult to get it back."
Han Xiao said, "You don't need to worry about that. Since we've agreed on it and even written a contract, there won't be any problems. If I need the house again in the future, I can just ask for it back."
This house has been neglected and will fall into disrepair quickly. It would be better to have someone use it and look after it.
Han Sheng was about to say something more when Han Xiao raised his hand to stop him, saying, "You don't need to say anything more. Given the current situation, my approach is the best."
Did you come back alone or with your whole family?
Han Sheng replied, "Because I heard there was an accident at home, I came back in a bit of a hurry, so I came back by myself."
Why didn't you let us know when Yixian got married? We could have gone to his wedding.
Han Xiao said, "Not only did we not send you any news, but Xiuqin and Xiuying also didn't invite them to the wedding. You all live far away, and it's such a year. Yixian and the others already had a simplified wedding, and they didn't invite many people. They just had a small ceremony and didn't even have a banquet. It's enough that everyone knows."
Did you take leave to come back?
Han Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, I took two days off. Brother, Yi Gan might be transferred to work in Kyoto. If you are transferred to L Province, he will have one less person to look after him in Kyoto."
Han Xiao was taken aback and said, "Yi Gan is coming to work in Kyoto? Have you forgotten what the old man said?"
Han Sheng smiled guiltily and said in a somewhat ingratiating tone, "Now that Father has passed away, elder brother, how about we don't be so strict?"
