Chapter 65: I Won’t Forgive You!
The sun was gradually setting in the west, and its light had turned from golden to orange-red. The sunlight streamed in through the large French windows of the living room, as if laying a layer of rosy gauze.
Pei Zhixuan held the bag and, seeing the “lively” scene in the restaurant, he unconsciously raised an eyebrow.
“So many people? Mr. Su is also here. That’s just right. This matter also has something to do with you.”
Hearing him say this, Su Chengjian’s brow furrowed deeply.
“You’re that actor, Pei Zhixuan? What kind of trick are you playing? This is our family matter. Please leave first.”
Pei Zhixuan flicked the dust from his clothes and, hearing this, he looked up and smiled gently.
“I’m sorry, but that might not be possible. After all, this is also my family matter.”
Just as Su Chengjian was about to ask him what he meant, he heard him call Wen Shu “Mother.”
If the fact that Wen Nian was her son had been a huge blow to him before, then Pei Zhixuan’s identity had completely thrown him into a state of shock and grief.
Pei Zhixuan was about the same age as Su Jinfeng, so before she had fallen in love with him, she had actually already had a child?!
He never expected to come here and have his heart pierced into a hedgehog. He was a little dazed.
If it weren’t for his usually healthy body, he would have probably been carried in and out horizontally.
Wen Shu nodded lightly, completely ignoring his heartache, and continued to ask, “Little Xuan, what are the test results?”
Pei Zhixuan opened the file and glanced at him, a hint of pity in his eyes.
Su Chengjian caught his expression and, for some reason, as if he had foreseen something, his heart suddenly began to pound wildly.
“Mother, it’s about what I guessed. Xiaxia is indeed your child.”
He handed the test report to her and then stood quietly on the side.
Her pounding heart suddenly calmed down the moment she saw the results.
Her eyes welled up with heat, and tears dripped onto the report, staining a large area.
Apart from her silent sobs of joy after the grief, the restaurant was once again quiet for a moment.
Chi Xiasheng was still a little dazed, but the moment he heard Pei Zhixuan say that he was her son, his heart seemed to explode. A huge wave of surprise and joy, like a flood, almost drowned him.
After a long time, his dry voice finally sounded. “I… I’m Auntie Wen’s child?”
With tears in her eyes, she didn’t even have time to wipe them away. She threw her arms around him and choked with sobs. “I knew it, I knew it. You must be my child. No wonder I liked you so much when I saw you…”
Before her suppressed and excited emotions could be relieved, she heard Su Chengjian roar from the side. “Impossible! Mianmian is your child. How can this be!”
He took a step forward, and she subconsciously protected him in her arms, retreating back.
But he had no intention of going crazy. The shock he had received today was already equivalent to the past twenty years. But the more extreme the situation, the calmer his thoughts became. He directly snatched the report from her hand.
He had done many paternity tests before, all of which had been sent over with his annual physical examination, so he was not unfamiliar with this test result.
“Parent-child relationship established…”
Looking at these big words, he finally felt what it was like for the sky to fall and the earth to crack. It seemed as if all his values and worldview had collapsed in this moment.
The pain he had felt when he learned that she had other children was far from one percent of what he was feeling now. He stared at this report with his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to swallow this piece of paper alive.
Su Chimian, who was supporting him, naturally also saw the results of the report. He directly shook his head and took a few steps back in a daze.
“This is impossible. How can this be? Are you guys playing some kind of trick! Chi Xiasheng, is it you! Are you trying to take revenge on me with this method! I won’t be deceived by you!”
His low and panicked mood instantly had an outlet. He gritted his teeth and looked at him, his eyes red as he questioned, “This is a trick you’ve long since arranged, right! You were just waiting for me and Dad to come, to act this out in front of us! I won’t fall for it!”
He had just accepted his new identity. Now, to be told that all of this belonged to Chi Xiasheng, how could he not hate and fear it!
You know, the reason he had been able to live a pampered and carefree life in the Su family for more than twenty years was entirely because of his identity as Wen Shu’s son. If it was really a mistake, then he…
He was in a daze for a moment, completely unable to imagine what kind of consequences he would face.
He knew Su Chengjian too well. When he was good to you, he could lift you to the sky, and all his love and care could be reserved for you alone. But when he hated you, he would only be more cold and ruthless, not caring at all that his blood still flowed in your veins!
Otherwise, how could he have abandoned him without blinking an eye during that kidnapping?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body and couldn’t help but move a step away from him.
Pei Zhixuan pointed at his forehead and let out a light laugh, stepping forward to block his murderous gaze.
“Su Chimian, this report is from the first private hospital in Hai City. And it’s not just this one. To be on the safe side, I also went to the first public hospital and the second hospital. They all have the same result.”
With that, he took out the other reports and politely handed them to him. “Do you want to see them?”
He was completely scared now. He directly waved his hand and threw the papers on the ground.
The papers scattered in mid-air, but Pei Zhixuan didn’t mind at all. He still had a gentle expression, and the smile on his lips deepened.
“Not just this, I also did a paternity test for you and Su Chengjian. Guess what the result is?”
He looked up in disbelief, his eyes full of helplessness and panic. He trembled his lips, wanting to stop him from speaking, but he had lost all his strength in that instant.
Su Chengjian also looked up at this time, his eyes full of calmness, completely different from the grief-stricken appearance he had just now.
“What is it?” he asked.
He was this kind of person. The bigger the change, the calmer he could be, extracting the most crucial part.
Pei Zhixuan took out the result of another report, pointed to the words on it, and said with a smile, “No father-son relationship. This is really surprising to me.”
He said it was surprising, but there was no surprise on his face at all. Instead, he was watching the show with great leisure.
Su Chengjian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then let out a cold snort.
“Good, Bai Qian is really good! To have hidden it from me for so many years, heh.”
He had been in the business world for so many years. How could he not guess the problem here? In an instant, he had figured out everything.
With a heavy cough, he bent down, his back seemed to have collapsed.
Chi Xiasheng saw his tormented appearance, his back hunched, as if he had aged in an instant. His previous spirit and vigor had all dissipated in this moment, and he seemed to finally see a bit of the shadow of a down-and-out middle-aged man.
But he didn’t feel any pity at all. Instead, he looked away, feeling that even looking at him one more time was disgusting.
At this time, he looked up and took a deep look at him standing behind Wen Shu.
Chi Xiasheng felt that his gaze was too complicated, with the sorrow of extreme grief, and also the guilt and sorrow of knowing that he could not be saved.
“Xiaxia, Dad…”
“Don’t call me that, Mr. Su.”
Hearing his decisive words, for a moment, the details that he had never noticed before seemed to appear in front of him.
For example, his stubborn and decisive personality, his cold and indifferent eyes when he was indifferent, which were almost exactly the same as Wen Shu’s, and most importantly, his exquisite appearance, which was almost on par with the beautiful Wen Shu.
His heart was torn to pieces. He was so grief-stricken that he couldn’t even piece it together. He could only watch as he distantly asked him to leave.
“Our family doesn’t welcome you.”
He had heard her say this before, but now, hearing it from his mouth again, it made his heart turn to ashes.
The child he had long since abandoned and neglected was actually his and Wen Shu’s child?!
The heavens were really playing a joke!
His once steady and cold expression no longer existed and instead became crazed and sorrowful.
“I’m sorry, Xiaxia. I didn’t know you… If I had known you were my child, I wouldn’t have treated you like this…”
Chi Xiasheng didn’t look at his pleading gaze and just pointed to the door. “The door is there. Please leave.”
Wen Nian, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze, also ran up and said with his hands on his hips, “You should get out quickly. Our lunch has been delayed by you! Why are you Su family members so annoying!”
He was brought back to his senses by this sound. He opened his mouth, wanting to go up and tell him that he didn’t not love him, but had just given his love to the wrong person.
If he had known that he was Wen Shu’s child, he would definitely not have abandoned him!
But what was wrong was wrong. He would never forgive the unforgivable.
He looked at his cold expression, and the knife in his heart pierced even deeper, making him bleed profusely.
Why? He really couldn’t accept this reality. He stumbled out of the door, still thinking about why!
Wen Shu is back. I told her about the child. I should have reconciled with her and lived a happy life with a family of three. But why!
The heavens actually played such a big joke on me!
The thought of what he had done to him before made him unable to breathe. His vision went black, and he fainted.
Su Chimian had left a step earlier than him. He ran back home and, seeing the dazed Mother Su sitting on the sofa, he threw himself on her.
“Mom! I’m not Wen Shu’s child. What’s going on?!”
Since last night, when she had learned that he was going to acknowledge Wen Shu as his mother today, her mentality had become very twisted.
On the one hand, she couldn’t bear for him to call her “Mom,” but on the other hand, she couldn’t wait to see her dote on him. At that time, she would stand up and tell her the truth. That scene would definitely be wonderful!
But before her idea could be realized, he had come back in a panic.
Hearing his words, her expressionless face suddenly became shocked.
“What do you mean? She knows? How could she know?!”
She had arranged her people in various hospitals long ago, just to prevent her from doing a test.
But she had never received any news. How could she have known?
Hearing her words, he knew that the report was real. His body went limp, and he collapsed on the sofa.
“Mom, Chi Xiasheng is Wen Shu’s child. Why, I’m not even Su Chengjian’s child!”
Hearing his words, the last bit of luck in her heart was completely gone.
It seemed that he also knew. Thinking of this, her body swayed twice and almost fell.
“Mom, what should we do?”
She swallowed, her usual elegance and nobility all turned into panic and helplessness. She spun around in place several times before she grabbed his arm and pulled him up.
“Let’s go, let’s go now!”
If they waited for him to come back, with his ruthless heart, she would definitely not have a good life!
He also thought of this and, without any hesitation, he followed her to pack up and leave.
