Zhuang Baihua was stunned, thinking he had misheard, and asked back, "What did you say?"
Luo Zhenduo glanced at him in a daze and refused to say it again.
Zhuang Baihua digested the information for a while, walked over and took away all the bottles, keeping them away from Luo Zhenduo, then looked directly into Luo Zhenduo's eyes and asked, "Tell me clearly, what's going on?"
Luo Zhenduo took a few deep breaths and said, "My mother... took Xiyin to do a paternity test, and the result was..."
Luo Zhenduo couldn't continue speaking, but Zhuang Baihua understood what he meant.
Zhuang Baihua processed this information quickly. The result of the paternity test was naturally not ideal. The question was why Mrs. Luo suddenly wanted to do a test.
Now that they have done a paternity test, it is a foregone conclusion that Xiyin's DNA does not match. Luo Zhenduo still used the word "maybe" and said that he still does not want to believe this fact.
After Zhuang Baihua finished his analysis, his first reaction was that Luo Zhenduo was so miserable. This son was originally born out of wedlock. He was weak and sickly since childhood. He raised him with great difficulty, but he was not his biological son.
The second reaction was... this is too bloody.
sat down next to Luo Zhenduo, looked at his haggard old friend, tried to choose his words, and tried to comfort him: "Don't worry, get things straightened out. Even if there is no blood relationship, relatives are always there."
Zhuang Baihua knew that any words were pale to Luo Zhenduo now. Even he himself was so shocked and couldn't believe it, let alone Luo Zhenduo. He couldn't empathize with him without experiencing the same thing, so he could only try to make Luo Zhenduo see things more positively.
"The most important question is, where is your biological son?" Zhuang Baihua asked cautiously, "When the child was just born, didn't you do a paternity test?"
Logically speaking, it is impossible not to do it. The Luo family is a wealthy family and should be very cautious in this regard. Moreover, the child was born from an accident after drinking, which was definitely verified after birth.
Luo Zhenduo wiped his face and looked at Zhuang Baihua, trying to draw strength from his friend. He said weakly: "This is the most incredible thing. We did a paternity test at the beginning. The report from 20 years ago is still there, and it doesn't match Xiyin's DNA at all."
That means the child was misidentified after a paternity test.
... or rather, replaced.
If it wasn't man-made, it would be hard to believe that a child from a wealthy family who had undergone an appraisal would be taken away by mistake.
Moreover, Xiyin was soon discovered to have congenital heart disease. The time from the child's birth to the time of the mistake was very short, and the probability of it being pure coincidence was too low.
Obviously the Luo family also thought of this, and they felt more and more overwhelmed.
"Calm down." Zhuang Baihua felt suffocated. If the child was really replaced artificially, it would be too vicious. "If it was artificial manipulation, think about it from another perspective, your biological son should be twenty years old now."
As a result, this sentence ignited Luo Zhenduo.
With red eyes, she said painfully, "When I think about this, I find it hard to accept. My child... has been wandering outside for 20 years. I don't know how he lives. I don't even... I don't even know if he is still alive."
After Luo Zhenduo finished speaking, he stood up and rushed towards the pile of wine bottles, picked up a bottle and poured it into his mouth. Zhuang Baihua stood up and snatched the bottle, and said loudly to him: "So now you should cheer up! You still have a mission and a goal. You have to find your biological child and bring him back to make up for the twenty years of care and education he has missed."
Luo Zhenduo stood there stupidly as he listened to Zhuang Baihua's words.
Zhuang Baihua supported me and asked me to sit down, and continued: "I know this is difficult, but you have to hold on and not fall down. When you find the child, you still have to find out the truth of 20 years ago and take revenge for what happened."
Zhuang Baihua is a well-known good guy, but he does not wait for anyone to lose his principles and support all victims in holding them accountable for crimes such as child swapping, and in giving the criminals the most severe punishment.
Luo Zhenduo was still in a daze, but at least he calmed down a little. Zhuang Baihua saw that he seemed to have listened to what he said, so he continued to ask the original question: "Mrs. Luo took Xiyin to do a paternity test and said that she found some clues. What do you know?"
Luo Zhenduo looked ahead and spoke hoarsely: "I didn't say anything specific, I just insisted on doing this appraisal."
His eyes gradually regained clarity. The words that Zhuang Baihua had just said were like a huge bell, waking him up, and his stagnant brain slowly began to think again.
Luo Zhenduo recalled his mother's reaction and said hesitantly: "I suspect my mother knows the whereabouts of my biological son, but for some reason, she is not sure. As soon as Xiyin's paternity test report came out, she left in a hurry after reading the results. She must have gone to find someone to investigate."
"That's right." Zhuang Baihua said, "Let's find the child first, and then we can talk about the next step."
This is the only way to persuade Luo Zhenduo, otherwise Luo Zhenduo will be trapped in the quagmire of pain and may never recover.
Zhuang Baihua thought about it and asked Luo Zhenduo another question: "Xiyin had a large-scale surgery when she was fifteen years old. Didn't you notice something was wrong at that time?"
Luo Zhenduo shook his head: "No, close relatives cannot receive blood transfusions. We have never considered that aspect. The plasma we purchased directly when Xiyin had the surgery did not cause any problems."
It's really weird. I can only say that Luo Zhenduo's situation is completely blind to the truth.
Zhuang Baihua came up with a bold idea, but he was thinking about the wording in his mind, wondering how to express this idea.
At this moment, Zhuang Baihua's cell phone suddenly rang. The urgent ringing interrupted Zhuang Baihua's thoughts. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was the assistant who stayed with Chi Yue calling.
This scene seems familiar.
Zhuang Baihua had a bad feeling in his heart, so he quickly picked up the phone, and heard the panicked voice of his assistant: "Boss Zhuang! Chi Yue was kidnapped!"
Chi Yue and Xi Yin sat face to face, but Chi Yue had a blindfold on his eyes and his feet were tied, so he couldn't move.
Xiyin stretched out her hand and took off her blindfold. Chiyue squinted her eyes and saw the surrounding scene clearly.
There were many large wooden barrels next to him, which looked like wine barrels judging by their shapes. The light here was dim and no windows were visible. The damp smell of wine lingered in his nose. He was sitting on a chair in the middle of the barrel, with Xiyin being the only person in front of him.
Chi Yue was kidnapped from the school gate and put into a car. Then she was tied up, blindfolded, and taken to this strange place.
Xiyin also sat on a chair, put her hair on her knees properly, and looked at Chiyue with a smile.
There was a hint of shyness in her smile: "We can finally be alone together, Yue."
Chi Yue was still the same, too lazy to pay attention.
I don't even want to ask about his intentions.
Xiyin showed an annoyed look: "I finally created an opportunity for the two of us to be together, why are you still ignoring me."
Chi Yue thought, if she hadn't taken the initiative to follow Lu Hong out of the dormitory, how could she break through the encirclement arranged by Zhuang Baihua with Xiyin? She simply didn't know how much she was capable of.
Xiyin didn't know what Chiyue was thinking, so she smiled shyly at him, "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything, as long as you say that I like you."
"I know you are not completely indifferent to me. When I searched you just now, I touched the pen. You carried the gift I gave you close to your body, saying that you could accept my love."
She spoke softly, her face as pale as paper, her eyes as inorganic as gray glass balls, and her lips as red as blood: "I like you, so I want to share everything about me with you."
Xiyin raised her head, pressed her slender fingers on her heart, and said, "I have been born with a congenital heart disease. At that time, the doctor said that I was too old to have surgery and could only wait until I grew up and the conditions were ripe, then I could have surgery to treat it. But before I was fifteen, I spent half of my time lying in the hospital. Every day, I felt hypoxia and shortness of breath. Angina pectoris accompanied me throughout my childhood."
came close to Chi Yue and asked softly: "Do you know what that feels like?"
He pressed his hand against Chi Yue's chest and said, "It really hurt like a hole in my heart. I bit my lip in pain until I passed out."
"You definitely can't imagine it." Xiyin said, punching Chiyue's chest fiercely, "How can someone who has never felt pain understand it?"
Xiyin's physical condition was not very good, but being hit at such a close distance still caused Chi Yue to feel a dull pain in the chest. However, his expression remained unchanged, which made Xiyin very disappointed.
"Why are you like this?" Xiyin said in a coquettish voice, "I like you and want you to experience my feelings. I want to share my pain and discomfort with you. Why don't you accept it?"
Chi Yue moved her lips, Xi Yin put her ear close to him and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Chi Yue repeated loudly: "You pervert!"
After hearing this, Xiyin was not angry, but instead she started to giggle.
"Maybe you're right, I'm a pervert." He admitted leisurely, "When I was little, I envied others for being able to play outside, and I kept asking my dad to take me to the amusement park. After I got there, I was extremely jealous when I saw others riding roller coasters. Afterwards, I had surgery, and I found that I began to like seeing others in pain. I was happy when others were injured and when others were bleeding. I guess I am a pervert."
Xiyin had a smile on her lips, which was as innocent and gentle as ever, but she said cruel words: "I like you, your blood makes me more excited, I like you so much, I hope you can feel less pain."
He lowered his head and touched the gauze on Chi Yue's thigh: "I want to carve scars all over your body, so that you will completely belong to me."
Apart from saying "you pervert", Chi Yue didn't say anything. No matter what Xiyin said, she didn't respond at all.
Xiyin was smiling at first, but then she lowered her head and started crying: "I really like you..."
"We were so connected, so connected that it shocked me. You know, we should have called each other by our first names."
Chi Yue then spoke up and asked, "Oh? What do you mean?"
Seeing Chi Yue's response, Xi Yin raised her head while crying. There was some joy on her face, and she cried and laughed at the same time in a very distorted way: "Anyway, Dad and Grandma will reveal the truth soon, so it's okay to tell you."
cried very sadly: "I am not my father's son, you are."
Chi Yue raised her eyebrows, showing a little surprise.
Chi Yue's expression pleased Xi Yin, and she began to tell him everything: "When I was fifteen years old and had an operation, I found out that I was not a child of the Luo family. There was a big flaw in my medical record. I tore off that page of records before my father and grandmother found out."
"Dad and grandma love me so much, and the Luo family is so rich, so they can cure my illness and I can live a good life. How could I let them know my life experience?"
"But it's not a big deal now, my body is almost fully recovered." She burst into laughter, "I went for a check-up, and I can now lead a normal life. Besides, after all these years, we have developed feelings for each other, and they will not abandon me."
Xiyin was full of confidence and told Chiyue everything. She treated her as her close lover and shared all her secrets with her.
"Recently I found out that you are the child of the Luo family. This is such a coincidence. Do you know how excited I am? This shows that there is an inseparable fate between us. I have visited your home. It is so shabby and your parents are also rotten people. I gave you money and you cooperated with me to trick you out. You are not worthy of you. You should be with me."
What a pervert, Chi Yue reminded Xi Yin: "Those are your parents, not mine."
Xiyin laughed strangely: "It doesn't matter. I don't care about anyone else. I only care about you."
He took out a folding knife from his pocket, opened it, put the blade against Chi Yue's face, and whispered, "I can't wait any longer. I want to create scars on your body and see you bleed."
Chi Yue asked calmly: "You are holding a knife now, and it looks like you are going to stab me. You were the one who put the bottle opener there before, right?"
Xiyin laughed non-stop: "Of course, since you are a guest at my house, I will definitely give you a gift in return."
"Are you happy that your biological father's bottle opener is embedded in your bones and blood?" The silver blade flickered with gray light in the dim air. Xiyin took the knife away from Chiyue's face and said, "Don't worry, I like your face and won't disfigure you. Where should we start? Why not continue from the last wound?"
Xiyin lowered her head, gestured with the knife, and was about to make a cut to try. At this time, Chiyue suddenly moved.
The ropes that bound were loosened, pulled 's feet out, quickly stood up from the chair, and pushed Xiyin away.
Xiyin fell to the ground and looked at him in shock.
Chi Yue reached behind his waist and cut off the power. He then took a step forward and knocked the knife in Xi Yin's hand several meters away.
"You've finished talking, it's my turn now. I don't like talking, I like to take direct action."
He grabbed Xiyin by the collar, lifted her up easily, and then threw her hard towards the wine barrels.
Xiyin's body hit the wall of the wooden barrel hard, making a "bang" sound.
Chi Yue walked over, picked up Xiyin again with one hand, clenched his other hand into a fist, and punched Xiyin straight in the nose.
Xiyin groaned, and purple marks instantly appeared on her fair skin, and two streams of blood flowed from her nose.
Chi Yue imitated what he had just done and laughed, but his eyes were sinister and cold, which made people shudder.
Chi Yue took out the pen from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and showed the sharp tip to Xiyin.
"I don't use a knife, I use this pen. Do you remember that I once told you that you would regret giving me this thing?"
