Chapter 569 - 572: The Mystery of The Origins Begins to Show Part 3_1
"Blinded by love." All he could say was that his father had the worst taste when it came to choosing a woman.
Or perhaps, it was because He Ziteng was such a good actress: "I was almost deceived by that woman!"
Gazing at the twinkling lights of Dubai, vivid memories kept flooding his mind. Memories of a time when his parents doted on him. Even though he was a secret son, when he was young, even on New Year’s Eve like today, his father would abandon his wife to celebrate with him and his mother.
He couldn’t fully remember the warmth from those times, but the feelings were deeply engraved in his heart. Even with age, they never faded. This was why he had endured He Ziteng’s cruelty. He held onto his yearning for that illusory motherly love, which now seemed to be unattainable-only a laughingstock.
A wave of complex emotions washed over him.
He hung up hurriedly, his eyes unexpectedly grew moist.
A bitter, self-mocking smile danced on his lips.
That woman was a proficient actress, he and his father were entirely blinded. When he was little, he always thought his mother was the woman with the most maternal love in the world. She was kind-hearted, innocent, and so sentimental that she would cry half a day even if a puppy died, let alone how she pampered him. The influence of his mother made him favor innocent and kind girls. He longed for a woman like her to appear in his life again. But could a woman, who cried for half a day just because a puppy died, watch someone throw him out of a car without batting an eye?
Such a woman, not only was she cruel and heartless, but she was also a master of disguise!
A glimpse of wariness flashed in his eyes. Could his Chenxing also be in disguise?
Shaking his head, no way!
He would always let his Chenxing remain pure and simple, and would never let her become a woman like Xia Ziteng!
His Chenxing was truly innocent and kind, radiating sunshine from within her soul, definitely not a pretense!
But once upon a time, He Ziteng was also like Chenxing——
The man, lost in nostalgia, suddenly halted all his wild thoughts, quietly facing the bathroom mirror for a long, long time, wondering what he was thinking about.
Then, he made a call.
The voice, was cold and emotionless.
"Xi Li, do something for me."
"Arrange for a paternity test!"
Two simple orders later, he emerged from the bathroom. He heard the triumphant laughter of Chenxing: "Haha, I’m not the last one, it’s Hua Hua. Hua Hua, are you doing a strip dance or playing Bo Bo?" Turning to see him, she seemed to beam with pride, "Shaocheng, look quickly, haven’t I been bringing you honor?"
Hua Hua ran to him howling with grief: "Brother, quickly send me a red packet."
Gu Shaocheng laughed, dodged and sent her a sympathetic look: "I’ll give you the red packet tomorrow. No matter how much I give you tonight, you’ll lose it all."
Last New Year’s Eve was the same.
Hua Hua had absolutely no talent in Mahjong.
Liang Huanhuan slammed the table: "Stop dawdling, I’m waiting for the next game. Hua Hua, decide quickly, Bo Bo or a strip dance?"
Nan Baihao peeled an orange and shoved it into Huanhuan’s mouth, laughing with schadenfreude: "He has no option here. Who would pair up with him for Bo Bo? Strip dance right away to satisfy us. Let me choose the music for you."
Hua Hua tossed her head defiantly: "I dance, no big deal. Do you think I’m afraid?"
