The night was dark, and the light rain turned into snow. Snowflakes then drifted down.
At one o’clock in the morning, when the night was the quietest, a black Rolls-Royce stopped quietly at the entrance of Huo Ci’s condominium. It had been parked for a long time, and a thin layer of snow had accumulated on the car.
Xu Xi looked at the man sitting quietly in the backseat and held his breath. He did not know what to say. The DNA test results were out. The Third Master and Xiaoqi were definitely father and son.
Father and son?
How was that possible?
Yes, he had been shocked when he had first seen it.
However, it was written clearly in black and white: They were definitely father and son.
He was already confused. Ms. Ling had gotten pregnant before getting married. He had gone to her hometown personally to find out everything about her. Even her neighbors had not known when she had gotten pregnant.
He could only infer from Xiaoqi’s birth date that it should have been about September four years ago. During that period, the Third Master had been traveling back and forth between European countries to attend a few important business meetings. He had not returned home!
He even suspected that someone had stolen the Third Master’s sperm secretly in order to deal with him. Then, they had used shameful means to get Ms. Ling pregnant so she would give birth to Xiaoqi.
Five hours had passed since the Third Master had gotten the results. He had only stared at the thin piece of paper in a daze. He had not said a word yet. He had asked him to drive him to Ms. Ling’s condominium, but he had not gone up to find her.
“Third Master.” In the end, Xu Xi could not take it anymore. He could not sit outside the apartment until daybreak, so he forced himself to ask, “Should we tell Ms. Ling about this?”
Jun Shiyan finally came back to his senses. His slender fingers gently brushed across the black handwriting on the test results. In the end, they stopped at the words “father and son”. A strange feeling slowly welled in his heart. He did not answer. Instead, he asked, “Xu Xi, what do you think will happen if Huo Ci finds out about this?”
Was there a need to ask? Given the Sixth Master’s temper, he would definitely kill him. Xu Xi let out a low cough and said, “Third Master, I’m afraid it’ll be as difficult as ascending to the heavens if you want to woo Ms. Ling.”
Although the Sixth Master said that he did not care, he would always be making a fuss over this and that while giving him nasty looks. However, if one told him to give it a try, a person like him could do anything. Forget about the Sixth Master, even Ms. Ling would not be easy to deal with!
Jun Shiyan frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “Before this matter is thoroughly investigated, no one is allowed to leak anything.”
Sheng Sheng had said that Xiaoqi was an accident. She did not know who the child’s father was. When she had told him, it had been very painful. That memory had been very devastating and unbearable to her.
If she found out about Xiaoqi’s identity, even if he told her that he had not done it, how could she believe that the memories she had were fake?
After returning, he had personally visited the neighbors Sheng Sheng had mentioned. The old couple had not remembered telling Sheng Sheng that they knew each other.
He had reason to suspect that someone had deliberately planned all this for him. Sheng Sheng might have had her memory changed by someone who had forced that night into her memory, causing her pain and making her hate him.
At first glance, it sounded like the explanation worked, but it could not withstand careful investigation. The old couple next door had had no interaction with the old lady from the restaurant. However, their words had been shockingly similar. There were not many coincidences in the world.
It was not until the sun rose and the residents went out that the car slowly drove out of the district.
