“Ziyu, give us another chance. I will give you and the children a happy family.” Di Mingjue moved forward step by step, reaching out to grab Jiang Ziyu’s arm.
Looking at the man before her, already deeply entrenched, Jiang Ziyu knew that anything she said at this moment would be futile.
Seeing that she did not resist, Di Mingjue naturally pulled her into his embrace again. He stroked her shoulder with his palm, already envisioning a happy life for their family of four.
He was still unaware of Xiaoran’s existence.
“You let me think about it.” Jiang Ziyu removed his arm from her.
Di Mingjue immediately nodded, “Okay, I’m not in a hurry. You take your time to think. Think about the children; they also need a complete and sound family.”
As Jiang Ziyu came out of the ward, she saw Shen Lin. He was holding a document, which presumably contained the results of the paternity test.
Shen Lin looked at Jiang Ziyu’s face, which had two different expressions on either side, and suddenly remembered something.
Was she the same woman from back then?
He suddenly understood.
From the first time he saw her, he had felt a sense of familiarity. It wasn’t that she looked alike; she was the woman who had relations with Di Mingjue back then and given birth to Qianqian.
Shen Lin hit his head in annoyance, wondering why he hadn’t realized it sooner.
“Madam.”
Jiang Ziyu did not speak.
Di Mingjue appeared behind her and reached out to take the paternity test results.
He opened the file bag and poured out the papers. Di Mingjue looked at the words on the papers, his lips curling up to his ears.
“Shen Lin, you go back to the old residence immediately and tell the old madam about this matter,” Di Mingjue instructed.
Shen Lin nodded and left.
Turning back into the ward, Yuze had already woken up.
“Do you know who I am?” Di Mingjue asked.
“Daddy,” Yuze called out sweetly.
The soft voice reached his ears, sending a shiver through Di Mingjue. He had always had Qianqian’s company, but due to her voice issues, this was the first time he had heard a child’s call.
Di Mingjue smiled and urged, “Call me again.”
“Daddy,” Yuze called out, reaching out and grabbing Di Mingjue’s finger.
His small hand was enveloped by a larger one, and Yuze intimately touched him.
“Hey!” Di Mingjue kissed Yuze’s soft face repeatedly.
After the father and son were reunited, they were almost inseparable. Di Mingjue even moved from the adjacent ward to live with Yuze.
Meanwhile, when the old madam learned of Jiang Ziyu’s identity, she was both surprised and disbelieving. Only when she saw Yuze’s face, which was almost identical to Di Mingjue’s in his childhood, did she accept it.
With all plans disrupted, Lu Sisi was driven mad with jealousy.
Seeing that Di Jianhan was also captivated by Yuze, she felt a strong sense of crisis.
On the other side, Jiang Ziyu informed Mu Liangchen, who then booked the soonest flights.
…
Night.
Jiang Ziyu stayed by the ward as usual, her gaze fixed on Di Mingjue beside her.
Her gaze was so intense that it kept Di Mingjue awake. He opened his eyes to face Jiang Ziyu’s unreserved stare.
“Do I look a lot like him?” Di Mingjue asked, looking at Yuze beside him, with a playful smile.
It was as the saying went online, as one grew up, they would resemble their fathers.
Di Mingjue got off the bed and picked up the blanket beside him, draping it over Jiang Ziyu’s shoulders. “I have already made my stance clear to the old man. No matter what he does, I will not compromise again. Our family of four will live together happily.”
“Do you want some water?” Jiang Ziyu suddenly stood up and proactively poured him a glass of water.
Looking at the steam rising from the glass of water, Di Mingjue thought she did not want to discuss these topics. He accepted the glass and drank the water cooperatively.
As the glass of water went down his throat, Di Mingjue felt his head growing heavy. He rubbed his temples with his fingers, and his vision began to blur.
“There’s sleeping medication in the water?”
As the question fell, he passed out.
