The ward fell into a stalemate silence.

Min Shoubei looked Lu Xiao up and down, his eyes clearly showing some dissatisfaction: "You are Lu Xiao, right? What are you doing next to my son?"

No way, sir, you call him "son" now? ! Shen Ci was stunned.

Facing a big shot, Shen Ci could only speak carefully: "Uh, Director Min...um, is there any misunderstanding?"

Hearing this, Min Shoubei turned his gaze towards Shen Ci with an arrogant look on his face: "It's impossible to be mistaken, you look exactly like your mother."

The hurried footsteps outside the ward became clearer and clearer, and another person rushed into the ward, forgetting to knock on the door in his haste.

"...Sister Min Song?" Shen Ci was stunned.

Min Song hurried on her way, her face flushed. She took a few deep breaths to calm her breath: "Xiao Ci... I'm sorry, I didn't stop Dad. Did he scare you?"

Ignoring Min Shoubei's sharp gaze, Min Song calmly patted his shoulder and signaled his father to move aside, then walked in front of Lu Xiao: "Mr. Lu, let's sit down and talk properly first."

Lu Xiao had been silent since just now, and his action of protecting Shen Ci had not changed at all. He stared at Min Shoubei and his daughter with a dark and turbulent look in his deep eyes, making it impossible to understand.

"good."

***

Shen Ci huddled at the head of the bed with his knees hugged, shivering along with the "tick-tick" sound of the dripping water.

Although they said "sit down and talk it over", the three people in front of me all put on the most serious and terrifying expressions, as if they were deciding whether to press the "destroy the earth in one click" button.

Although he, whose background was a mystery, was the central topic, the three of them were too powerful and Shen Ci didn't dare to interrupt.

Shen Ci: ...I am a newbie and I often feel out of tune with you guys because I am not a big enough boss.jpg

Lu Xiao glanced at the IV drip Shen Ci was receiving, turned his gaze back and said calmly: "Bring out the evidence first."

Min Shoubei seemed to have heard something funny, and sneered in disbelief: "Do you need evidence to find a biological son? He doesn't look like me?"

Min Shoubei has big European-style eyes, a high nose bridge, angular features, and is 189cm tall.

Shen Ci has double deer eyes, a small nose, soft and delicate features, and is 173cm tall.

Everyone: “…”

Min Song was a little embarrassed and said tactfully: "...Dad, your genes are more obvious in me."

"Tsk, forget it." Min Shoubei turned his head and stared at Shen Ci, and said in a low voice: "Anyway, Xiaobao looks exactly like your mother, especially the eyes..."

His voice gradually became lower, as if he was lost in recollection. After a while, he spoke again with self-mockery: "It's been almost 20 years, and I had long forgotten what she looked like. But when I saw Xiaobao, I remembered everything."

Before Min Shoubei finished speaking, he suddenly picked up his sunglasses and put them on, returning to his cold and stern look that seemed to show that no one loved him.

Shen Ci only had time to catch a glimpse of the pain in his eyes for a moment before his vision was blocked by the dark sunglasses.

Is he really his biological father?

The original plot of the dream is based on Bai Ziwei's perspective. As a cannon fodder, Shen Ci is no longer worthy of having a plot in the original novel after he goes offline, so naturally there is no plot of "being found by his biological parents".

He regarded the Shen family as his real home and had long given up the idea of ​​looking for his biological parents, but Min Shoubei's sudden appearance made Shen Ci a little overwhelmed.

He was once bored and searched the Internet for information about the overly powerful Min father and daughter.

It is said on the Internet that Min Shoubei has been living in Country M, but his wife died in a plane crash in China 20 years ago. There is no mention of the loss of his young son.

Perhaps because the Internet was not well developed in that era, and Min Shoubei was a newcomer and had no fame, there were no photos of his wife circulating on the Internet.

"What I want to know is," Lu Xiao suddenly looked at Min Song, his dark eyes full of inquiry, "Why didn't you recognize me?"

Shen Ci also looked at Min Song in confusion. He also wanted to ask this question.

Since Min Shoubei said that he looks like Mrs. Min, Min Song, as her daughter, should be able to recognize him at first sight.

Min Song looked calm, as if he had expected to be questioned: "I don't remember what my mother looked like."

Shen Ci: “Ah?”

Min Song took a deep breath and said, "I was just old enough to remember when my mother passed away. Later, my father burned all the photos. I... really can't remember anything. I'm sorry."

Shen Ci couldn't help but look at Min Shoubei. He pursed his lips and responded indifferently.

Why did you burn the photos of your lover? Shen Ci wanted to ask, but after struggling for a while, he kept silent.

Who knows what's going on. It would be bad to expose Min Shoubei's scars.

Min Song: "So I'm not sure about Xiao Ci's identity. It's better to do an appraisal."

"right."

Min Shoubei, as if he had been paused, finally started calling his friends in related fields, and so did Lu Xiao.

Shen Ci nervously pulled at the corner of Lu Xiao's clothes, and with wet eyes, he said, "Uncle, Director Min has already contacted them. Let's just..."

If I have to be taken for two appraisals, wouldn't that mean I have to have my blood drawn twice... Shen Ci trembled in fear, what a bloody disaster!

Lu Xiao reached out and stroked his chestnut hair, his voice much gentler than before: "We are just analyzing the results together, otherwise I will be worried."

He had looked up Shen Ci's family background many times and had talked to Shen Bie, who had taken the child back, several times, but to no avail.

This time Min Shoubei came too suddenly, and it seemed that he still had a strong obsession with Shen Ci. Lu Xiao felt a little annoyed because he could not control the situation.

But when he looked down and saw the soft Shen Ci, he felt much better.

Faced with the major events in his life, Shen Ci looked bewildered, but still looked like he was fully dependent on her.

This unconditional trust made Lu Xiao's heart melt and he was very satisfied. If there was no one in the room, he really wanted to hold the baby on his lap and give him a good kiss.

Lu Xiao lowered his head and coaxed her gently, "Don't worry, I will take care of everything. Baby, go to sleep first."

Finally, he couldn't help but kiss Shen Ci on the forehead.

Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" and Shen Ci was so scared that he almost jumped up. He subconsciously reached out and hugged Lu Xiao tightly.

Before Min Shoubei hung up the phone, a hammer slammed on the table and almost knocked the water cup over.

He growled rudely, "Open your mouth!"

Shen Ci: “???”

Shen Ci didn't know where to start complaining for a moment, his mind was in a mess.

First reaction: Damn, it was just a kiss, but he actually dared to yell and scold such a nice uncle. I’m going to beat him up!

Second reaction: Oh shit, that’s not right, he seems to be my biological father… and he looks like someone who is not easy to mess with!

Final reaction: QAQ, forget it, I dare not say anything...

Back to the starting point, the two tall men began another silent and intense eye contact. Min Shoubei's hostility was even stronger than when he first came, and the atmosphere was tense and ready to explode.

No, we are not really going to fight.

Shen Ci thought quickly and closed his eyes immediately. He covered his abdomen, cried out in pain, and fell on the hospital bed.

It's time to show off his advanced vase acting skills!

When I closed my eyes, my hearing became extra sharp, and I could hear the distinct sound of hurried footsteps.

"What's wrong, baby? Do you have a stomachache again?"

"What happened to the hospital?!"

"Xiao Ci? Mr. Lu, please move aside. I will call the nurse."

Shen Ci trembled and opened his eyes. His long eyelashes were wet with tears. His face was pale and his lips were pale. "Stop arguing. It makes me feel bad. I have a stomachache again..."

Emotions can indeed affect physical condition, especially since Shen Ci just had acute gastroenteritis.

"Okay, let's stop arguing..." Lu Xiao immediately promised in a low voice.

Min Shoubei's expression was a little distorted, but he soon said "hmm" with a cold face, but his face was slightly red.

Lu Xiao's eyes were full of heartache and self-blame. He wanted to lower his head and kiss Shen Ci's forehead to comfort him, but when he thought of Min Shoubei, who had a strong presence next to him, he held back.

To Lu Xiao, Min Shoubei himself was not difficult to deal with, but if he was really Shen Ci's biological father... veins suddenly popped out on Lu Xiao's forehead.

Not long after, several doctors and a large number of nurses ran in in shock: "Mr. Shen, how are you?!"

The doctors and nurses looked as if their own mother was about to die in front of them. They prepared all the instruments quickly and swiftly as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and vowed to examine Shen Ci from his hair to his toes.

How can I not be nervous! If anything happens to Shen Ci, the president of Lu University will make sure that their hospital will be in tatters.

"???" Shen Ci was so frightened by the big show that he almost couldn't continue pretending. He came to his senses and touched his belly softly, and continued to pretend to be a sick little white flower: "I'm much better now, maybe because I'm in a good mood. Now... I want to lie down and rest for a while."

"Don't bother him." Lu Xiao immediately frowned and waved his hand. The doctors and nurses ran away without complaining.

Lu Xiao tucked Shen Ci into the quilt, gently reminded the veteran cadre of many health care measures, and looked at Min Shoubei with his dark eyes.

"Mr. Min, we'd better talk."

Min Shoubei stared at Lu Xiao's hand on Shen Ci's quilt through the quilt and said coldly: "I think so too."

As they talked, they both stood up and walked out.

Looks like I got away with it...

"Uncle, Mr. Min, please don't fight." Shen Ci added weakly.

Lu Xiao and Min Shoubei turned around and said "hmm" at the same time, like a copy and paste with a mirror image.

Shen Ci almost laughed out loud, but he refused to relax and continued to show a standard white lotus smile that showed three parts weakness, three parts haggardness, and four parts understanding. He then gave himself a thumbs up in his heart for his 360° fancy spin!

Hey, he stayed up all night imitating and learning, and even had the nerve to seek guidance from seniors on acting. It wasn't a waste of effort.

Even the big devil will be fooled by him one day. Shen Ci's arrogant little nose is almost flying up to the sky.

"Don't move." Min Shoubei came back suddenly and gave the order worriedly, fearing that the little son he had just found would be kidnapped by someone.

Shen Ci nodded, and a classic illustration from the Chinese textbook came to his mind. He suddenly suspected that Min Shoubei was going to say "I'm going to buy some oranges"...

Min Shoubei went out to talk with Lu Xiao, so Min Song stayed behind to take care of Shen Ci.

She poured Shen Ci a cup of hot water to cool him down, and pursed her lips with a faint smile: "Xiao Ci, the world is really small."

Being with Min Song, the atmosphere became much more cheerful and relaxed. Shen Ci pretended to be lazy and sick, but soon he was laughing again.

Min Song told him that Min Shoubei never paid attention to the hot topics in the entertainment industry before, and was too lazy to care about the idol stars he hated. He didn't even know people like Shen Ci who were always on the hot search list.

This time, by chance, Min Song was accidentally spotted by Min Shoubei while watching Shen Ci's new drama.

According to Min Song's description, Min Shoubei's eyes turned red at that time and he rushed to see it like a madman.

He came to the small county town where Shen Ci was filming a variety show that day. While asking for directions and finding someone, he was secretly photographed by a passerby and the video was posted online.

The unattainable artistic genius director Min Shoubei might actually be his biological father.

Shen Ci felt like he was dreaming, but he was neither awake nor moved. He just felt it was quite incredible.

However, if he is really Min Shoubei's son - Min Shoubei would probably be very disappointed, right?

After all, Shen Ci has been in various online dramas and is known as a vase, with her looks perfectly overshadowing her talent. Min Shoubei has even publicly dissed this type of traffic artist.

"Xiao Ci, there's something else I need to tell you." Min Song seemed to want to say something but stopped.

Shen Ci nodded obediently: "Okay, okay."

Judging from Min Song's expression, what she is about to say will definitely shock people.

But after experiencing such a magical recognition of his family, Shen Ci felt that there was nothing he could not bear.

Min Song: "...I heard from my father's former classmates that my mother was also called a vase when she was in art school, but my father pursued her the most fiercely and loved her to death. He almost knelt down and cried to my mother to force her to agree."

Shen Ci:?

Min Song: "So he says he hates me, but in fact he really loves vases. Don't worry that he hates you. On the contrary, he particularly dislikes people like me who are stronger..."

Shen Ci: ? ?

Min Song: "Also, the movie script he wrote for Mom 20 years ago...it is very likely that he will force you to play the leading role after making some changes, so you should be mentally prepared."

Shen Ci: ???

I said I really hate idol actors who can only hit their faces!

We agreed not to use vase actors in any movie!

His character was destroyed, his treatment was reversed, he was humiliated... Shen Ci covered his heart with his hands and his eyes were filled with tears. He really couldn't bear it.
