Chapter 38 Who is your father? !
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
Pei Yuanzhi arrived at the door of Li Zhi's ward at the agreed time and stopped.
He looked at the room number that Li Zhi sent him on his phone, and after making sure that he was in the right place, he raised his hand and knocked on the ward door.
In a few seconds, the door of the ward was opened.
Pei Yuanzhi lowered his head to look at the little boy who opened the door. When his eyes fell on his face, he was stunned for a moment. Then, when he came to his senses, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, with shock and astonishment that could not be concealed in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
He raised his finger and pointed at Li Yanjing's face, looking like he had seen a ghost, "You, you, you..."
Li Yanjing frowned and looked up at him, "Me what?"
Pei Yuanzhi had been playing with Xie Tingzhou since he was a child, so he naturally remembered what he looked like when he was a child.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at the little boy in front of him. His face looked almost the same as Xie Tingzhou's when he was a child. He blurted out subconsciously, "Who is your father?!"
Especially their eyebrows and eyes, if you put the two of them together, everyone would think they are father and son.
Li Yanjing's eyes moved slightly, and his mind worked quickly. Hearing him ask this, combined with the shock he showed when he saw him for the first time, he could tell that he must have seen his face somewhere.
The only person who resembles him is naturally his biological father.
What he didn't know was whether the man he knew was really his biological father or if he just looked like him.
Li Yanjing collected his thoughts and didn't answer his question. He only asked, "Did you go to the wrong ward?"
When Pei Yuanzhi heard him say this, he remembered that he came here for an important matter. He temporarily suppressed his doubts and asked, "Is this Master Li's ward?"
Li Yanjing nodded, "Yes."
"Uh..." Pei Yuanzhi couldn't help but put himself in Xie Tingzhou's shoes when he saw his face. He felt indescribable strangeness. He touched the tip of his nose and asked curiously, "What is your relationship with Master Li?"
Li Yanjing tilted his head, not wanting to tell him the true relationship between him and Li Zhi, so he said, "Master Li is my master."
"Oh, I see." Pei Yuanzhi said.
Li Yanjing turned around and said, "Come in, Master Li is inside."
Pei Yuanzhi responded, followed him into the ward.
His eyes fell on the woman leaning on the hospital bed. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that she was even more beautiful in person than on the phone.
After all, beauty filters are too powerful nowadays. Many of them look beautiful on mobile phones, but they will be completely disfigured in the light in reality.
Pei Yuanzhi smiled and said, "Master Li, hello, I'm here to get the amulet."
Li Zhi nodded, picked up the folded amulet that had just been drawn and placed beside her pillow, and handed it to him. "There are five in total. Just keep them close to you."
She paused and continued, "Also, this amulet is waterproof, so you don't have to leave it with you even when you're in water."
Pei Yuanzhi reached out to take it, looked at the triangular amulet of the same size in his hand, and nodded, "Okay, I understand, thank you Master Li!"
"It's okay." Li Zhi replied.
Pei Yuanzhi put away the amulet and looked at Li Yanjing who was standing across from the bed. He coughed lightly and said slowly, "Master Li, you still accept such a young disciple."
Li Zhi turned to look at his son and raised an eyebrow, "Yes, my only direct disciple."
"Master Li, what about his parents?" Pei Yuanzhi asked.
"Why do you ask his parents?" Li Zhi asked.
Pei Yuanzhi didn't hide it and said truthfully: "Your apprentice looks exactly like my good brother when he was a child..."
When Li Zhi heard him say this, her eyes darkened. She could almost conclude that the brother he was talking about should be the biological father of Little Radish Head whom she had never met.
However, in this situation, it is best to wait and see.
"So, it must be a coincidence. His father died before he was born."
Pei Yuanzhi thought about it and realized that there had never been a woman around Xie Tingzhou. How could this be his son? Besides, the child already had his own father.
He nodded, no longer dwelling on it, and said with a smile: "Yes, it must be a coincidence."
"Master Li, I'll leave first and not disturb you anymore." Pei Yuanzhi said again.
"Okay." Li Zhi responded.
Pei Yuanzhi greeted her, glanced at Li Yanjing opposite him, then turned and left the ward.
After confirming that he had left, Li Yanjing withdrew his gaze, raised his eyes to look at Li Zhi lying on the bed, pursed his lips, and said slowly: "Is it him?"
Li Zhi knew what he was asking, "It should be fine if nothing unexpected happens."
"What do you think?" Li Yanjing asked again.
Li Zhi threw the choice to him, "Do you want to recognize your biological father?"
"I don't want to." Li Yanjing replied without thinking.
"Then I won't admit it." Li Zhi said.
"But if that person just now tells him what happened, will he become suspicious and come to find us?" Li Yanjing said with some concern.
Li Zhi's eyelashes moved, and the memories of the original owner five years ago emerged in her mind.
After the original owner's adoptive parents went bankrupt, she sold all the jewelry and bags that belonged to her and her adoptive mother. She sold everything that was valuable and made a lot of money.
A year after her adoptive mother passed away, she had spent all the money she had on her extravagant spending.
Forced by life's difficulties, by chance and with the introduction of a college friend, she came to the most upscale private club in Beijing to work as a waitress to earn money.
One night, the colleague who was supposed to deliver wine suddenly had a stomachache. Considering that the people who came here to consume were either rich or noble, the colleague did not dare to delay and asked the original owner to help deliver the wine.
The original owner happened to be free, so he didn't refuse. He took the tray and took the elevator directly to the top floor.
The layout of the top floor is similar to that of a hotel, with suites providing a place for guests to rest.
The original owner stopped at the door of the room according to the room number told by his colleague.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door. The moment the door opened, she was pulled in by the person inside.
The man in the room must have been drugged, and then the original owner was forced to do that kind of thing.
The lights in the room were off, and the original owner couldn't see what the man looked like.
After it was over, the original owner was so scared that he endured the pain in his body, hurriedly put on his clothes and ran away.
As soon as I ran downstairs, I met a colleague who had diarrhea and asked her if she had delivered the things to 526.
The original owner then realized that he didn't hear clearly and sent the wrong room number.
She said "no" to her colleague in a trembling voice, then shook off her colleague's hand and ran to the bathroom.
Her colleagues didn't know what happened to her, but they didn't have time to ask her, so they quickly got some more wine and brought it up.
Not long after, the manager gathered all the waitresses in the club and asked if anyone had delivered drinks to a room on the top floor at a certain time.
The original owner was extremely scared at the time, thinking that the other party was going to cause trouble for her, so naturally she did not dare to admit that she had been there.
