At the entrance of the Peace Hotel, several welcoming guests lined up neatly at the entrance. It was freezing cold and the wind was howling, but the well-trained waiters still had smiles on their faces.
After waiting for a while, a car drove up, and the leader smiled and opened the door, respectfully said: "Mr. Ji, welcome."
People from the car that followed got off one after another, Ji Yunshen stepped forward to give him a hand, "Grandpa, slow down."
Mr. Ji held the cane tightly in his hand, obviously a little nervous, "Are you sure? Is that paper authentic?"
Ji Yun saw one side raised his eyebrows, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a playful smile, and he yawned with a look of lack of interest, "Grandpa, you have asked me this question hundreds of times in the past two days."
Mr. Ji sighed, his eyes were sad, "It's been more than ten years, this kid must have suffered a lot outside." His eyes turned to Ji Shaocheng, and his eyes were as bright as a knife, "If you didn't take good care of him back then, How could he be missing for so many years?"
Ji Shaocheng followed beside him without saying a word.
The father and son broke up because of this incident. The old Mr. Ji was still brooding about Ji Shaocheng's rebellion. After so many years, seeing his hard work wasted and no successor, his prejudice against Ji Shaocheng became more and more profound.
Ji Yunshen persuaded: "Grandpa, Mr. Ji has been traveling around for so many years, so he must be more anxious. Our first priority is to see people first."
Mr. Ji sighed, closed his eyes, poked his cane heavily on the ground, and walked towards the room.
Before coming here, they only had a rough understanding of Ji Ran from photos and videos, and there was indeed a shadow of Ji Ran in their eyebrows.
Lu Beichuan asked Ji's family to meet at the Peace Hotel. It was originally scheduled for 8:00 p.m. I ordered all the dishes I ate.
Before Lu Beichuan took Ji Ranlin out, he received a message from the hotel, saying that Mr. Ji had arrived.
During this period of time, there were a lot of gossip about Ji Ran on the Internet, and Ji Ran, who was full of negativity, was ordered not to go out to prevent accidents.
But today, Lu Beichuan informed him that he would take him to a banquet tonight.
Along the way, Lu Beichuan obviously had something to say, but he seemed to be struggling with how to say it, hesitating, without the slightest decisiveness in the past, but Ji Ran pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Brother Lu, what's the matter?" ?”
Lu Beichuan frowned, and decided to tell the truth, "Do you still remember how I found you back then?"
"Orphanage."
"You grew up in an orphanage, didn't you think about your own life experience?"
Ji Ran remained silent, his lips pursed into a straight line, his expression of resistance obviously did not want to recall.
"Back when you were four years old and lost, there was no news and no clues. I searched for many years before I found out that you were sent to this orphanage. Fortunately, you still used the name Ji Ran. Otherwise, we It's impossible to find you so soon."
Ji Ran became more and more confused, and frowned slightly, "Brother Lu, what do you mean?"
Lu Beichuan took a deep breath and looked at him with serious eyes, "Last time, I took you for a paternity test, and the results came out. You are indeed Ji Shaocheng's son. Your surname is Ji, and your name is Ji Ran. Your grandfather's name is Ji Wenzhong." .”
Ji Ran was always as cold as ice, and his expressionless face turned pale with shock at this moment, "Ji Wenzhong?!"
"Yes, it is Ji Wenzhong you think, Mr. Ji."
"How...how is it possible!"
Lu Beichuan naturally regarded his panic as unbelievable. He grabbed Ji Ran's right hand and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, you and Ji Shaocheng are father and son. When you were three or four years old, it's normal if you don't remember. Ji Ran Your family is waiting for you at the Peace Hotel, and I will take you to meet them."
Ji Ran frowned, and looked out the car window. He had thrown the paper paternity test into the shredder before, but he also knew how important the preference between the Ji family and Lu Beichuan was to him.
So, he forged a paternity test result and put it on Lu Beichuan's desk.
—The probability that Ji Shaocheng and Ji Ran are father and son is 99.9999%.
"Brother Lu, could it be... Could it be that the hospital made a mistake?"
"No!" Lu Beichuan insisted, "The identification will not be wrong, and I also clearly asked the director of the orphanage back then, you are Ji Ran."
"So, the reason why you have been nice to me all these years is because you knew I was Ji Ran? Since you knew, why didn't you tell me all these years?"
Why not
Lu Beichuan was slightly lost in thought.
He didn't want Ji Ran to know his identity, because once he did, he would no longer have the opportunity and qualifications, so close contact with Ji Ran, and being with Ji Ran became an impossible luxury.
In this less tolerant society, the Ji family, rumors of the same sex will never appear.
"Are you blaming me?"
Ji Ran was taken aback for a moment, and smiled unnaturally, "No..."
The car stopped slowly, and a waiter came to open the door. Lu Beichuan led the absent-minded Ji Ran all the way to the private room.
When he arrived at the door, Ji Ran suddenly grabbed Lu Beichuan's sleeve, met Lu Beichuan's puzzled and encouraging eyes, and he let go of his hand suddenly.
Now that the appraisal result has come out, black and white, no matter how impossible it is, it is a foregone conclusion.
Pushing open the door, the light was dazzling, and Ji Ran subconsciously closed his eyes. When he opened them again, an energetic old man stood up at the dinner table. bigger.
Lu Beichuan did not show any stage fright, and held his head high, "Mr., I brought Ji Ran here for you."
Ji Ran looked at Mr. Ji in front of him, his mind was buzzing, as if he had lost the ability to speak and act, he stood there blankly, watching Mr. Ji approaching him, and grabbed his hand.
Mr. Ji was jealous, "Son, do you remember me? I'm grandpa."
Ji Ran subconsciously and timidly set his eyes on Lu Beichuan.
Lu Beichuan stepped forward, "Mr., let's sit down and talk slowly."
Mr. Ji put all his heart on Ji Ran, he didn't want to look away, his eyes were full of kindness, he smiled and agreed twice, and sat down slowly.
But the other three people in the room have not seen any movement.
From the moment Ji Ran entered the door, Ji Shaocheng's expectant eyes became dim, his brows were tightly knit, and his expression was stern.
Ji Yunshen hadn't taken this matter to heart since two days ago, and now he doesn't take it seriously.
And Ji Yun saw that after Ji Ran entered the door and took a look, he played with the saber in his hand as if no one was there, and when Ji Ran sat down, he threw the saber in front of him with his backhand, flashing a terrifying cold light.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by Ji Yun's movement, and Ji Yun gave an 'ah' when he saw it, and said innocently: "I'm sorry, I missed it."
The knife was only an inch away from Ji Ran, and Ji Ran felt lingering fear and breathed heavily.
Seeing Xiexie's smile, Ji Yun got up lazily, with his tie loosely tied, put one hand in his pocket, pulled out the saber inserted into the table, and leaned against the table, pointing the point at Ji Ran, "So timid? I taught you how to play with a knife when I was young, forgot?"
Lu Beichuan came over to smooth things over, "Yun Jian, Ji Ran was only three or four years old at that time, I'm afraid I won't remember those things long ago."
Ji Yunjian seemed to suddenly realize, "I forgot...so that's the case." After finishing speaking, he returned to his original position, but this time he concentrated on playing with the knife and never focused on Ji Ran again.
younger brother? joke!
Hearing Mr. Ji's rambling words in his ear, Ji Yunjian was a little annoyed. When he raised his head and wanted to say something, he happened to see Ji Yun's deep eyes and shook his head to himself.
Of course Ji Yunshen knew that the paper paternity test was true. Back then, he watched Luo Su exchange his and Ji Ran's blood.
The reason why he never revealed it was because he wanted to know what kind of medicine was sold in Luosu's gourd.
"You have been outside these years. How are you doing? Has your disease recurred?"
Lu Beichuan's expression froze, "Sick?"
Ji Yunjian sneered, "Lu Beichuan, you don't even know this, do you? My younger brother suffers from aplastic anemia, which has a very high chance of becoming an adult and requires a bone marrow transplant to cure it. So good, I guess it should be cured."
Lu Beichuan's face became more and more ugly, "Aplastic anemia? How is it possible... How could Ji Ran have..."
"Back then, our Ji family spent a lot of effort and couldn't find a suitable bone marrow. I didn't expect Mr. Lu to find it. Thank you."
Lu Beichuan's expression could no longer be described as ugly.
He knows Ji Ran's physical condition best. He has personally reviewed the six-month physical examination report. He is in good health, and there is no problem with his eyesight. How could he have this disease
Looking at the dark night outside the window, Ji Yunshen smiled and made up his knife, "It's getting so dark, you should pay attention when Mr. Lu sends Ji Ran back later. Ji Ran has night blindness since childhood. It's inherited, and he can't see anything at night. Mr. Lawrence is worried."
"Night blindness?" Lu Beichuan only felt that the words weighed heavily, making him unable to breathe.
"Chi—" There was an undisguised chuckle, and Ji Yunjian looked at Lu Beichuan playfully, "Mr. Lu really brought a big surprise to my Ji family, and even brought a fake one to pretend to be."
Lu Beichuan's face was gloomy, cold as ice, but his attitude was still firm, "It's impossible, I personally took Ji Ran to the hospital for a paternity test, the test result can't be wrong!"
Ji Yunjian sneered mercilessly, "Now that the paternity test is a piece of paper, what is impossible? It's a waste of my young master's time. With this time, a military exercise is over," he said, getting up and walking to Mr. Ji Beside him, he bowed and said, "Grandpa, let's go back, I'll play chess with you."
It was originally a good thing, but things that were determined have changed.
Mr. Ji has been thinking about Ji Ran all these years, and finally got some news, but he didn't expect to be happy in the end, not to mention that the disappointment is fake, the joy of the idea at the beginning was completely wiped out.
Supported by Ji Yunjian to get up, he raised his hand, "Okay, it's so late, I should go back, so I won't delay your work."
Ji Yunshen also followed Mr. Ji, walking out without looking sideways.
