Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Visit Him Often
She was striving to keep her composure, determined not to show weakness in front of Zhao Gushen.
However, her red eyes, in Zhao Gushen’s view, didn’t look any better.
Zhao Gushen sighed; there were still many things he wanted to probe.
But now, he couldn’t bring himself to say them, his heart softening.
He couldn’t stand seeing her so obviously helpless, yet trying so hard to remain strong.
"When did I ever say that I wanted to take Xiao Mo away?" Zhao Gushen softened his voice to say.
Ye Fei was stunned, her mouth agape, staring at him dazedly.
"You..." Ye Fei could not believe her ears.
Was what he said really what she understood it to mean?
"I’m showing you this only to let you know, I am Xiao Mo’s father. Xiao Mo’s father is not a stranger, not an unknown person, and certainly not someone who died of a terminal illness." Towards the end, a playful smile appeared in Zhao Gushen’s eyes.
Ye Fei suddenly remembered what she had said to Zhao Gushen before.
In front of Xiao Mo’s biological father, she had claimed that he had died of a terminal illness.
Ye Fei lowered her head in chagrin.
"When... did you start suspecting Xiao Mo..." Ye Fei said softly, "I myself knew nothing about Xiao Mo’s father, didn’t even have a suspect in mind."
"You registered for the culinary competition; on your ID card, it shows you are from Ye City." Zhao Gushen said, "You also mentioned that you came to B City five years ago. I was also in Ye City five years ago, on that night when that incident happened."
"Perhaps these seem just like coincidences, but to me, such coincidences are worth looking into as clues. So, I did a paternity test. As for Xiao Mo, I obtained his hair." Zhao Gushen said, "I hope you don’t mind."
Ye Fei was silent, how could she mind?
But...
Thinking that the person from that night turned out to be Zhao Gushen.
She... she and Zhao Gushen were actually... had actually been that intimate.
Ye Fei suddenly felt uneasy, feeling incredibly hot in front of Zhao Gushen, extremely embarrassed.
Feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles, she instinctively moved a little further away from Zhao Gushen.
Zhao Gushen: "..."
"So, how did you end up that night..." Zhao Gushen asked.
Ye Fei, feeling awkward, definitely didn’t want to bring up that night’s events.
She looked at Zhao Gushen and said, "Promise me first, that you really won’t take Xiao Mo away. Once we’ve reached a consensus on this matter, I’ll tell you everything that happened at the time, word for word."
"I promise." Zhao Gushen was not angry and patiently said, "I’m showing you this identification report today just to let you know that I’m Xiao Mo’s father."
"I won’t take him away, I’ve seen his relationship with you. If I take him away, he will hate me." Zhao Gushen said.
"Xiao Mo is a good child, I’m his father, I also don’t want him, at such a young age, to be tainted with these negative emotions."
"I just hope I can come see him often, be able to meet him regularly, participate in his growth. I also want to contribute to his growth."
Ye Fei was surprised; she didn’t expect Zhao Gushen to be so... so good...
Upon learning of his relationship with Xiao Mo, his first thought wasn’t to take Xiao Mo back, but rather just to ask to see Xiao Mo regularly.
Such a request, Ye Fei really had no reason or right to refuse.
