Chapter 451: 451, I dare not, can you help me look.
The snow was white and thick, the cold wind sharp and biting. The ambiance in the room was unusually oppressive, the air appeared stagnant, and everything in the world seemed to be at a standstill.
Shi Yuhuan was leisurely and gracefully reclined on the couch, seemingly asleep with his eyes closed.
Song Qinghuan lay on the couch, her head resting on Shi Yuhuan’s thigh, her gaze fixed upon the dossier in the center that had yet to be opened.
Inside it was the parental verification of her and Yan Pingdan.
“Shi Yuhuan,” Song Qinghuan broke the silence after some time. She looked at Shi Yuhuan with profound confusion in her eyes. “Why did you conduct an examination of the blood ties between my brother and me? Do you suspect that my brother and I are not genuine siblings?”
Shi Yuhuan slowly opened his eyes, no longer having the cold severity present earlier. His indifferent composure was back, as was his mysterious aloofness.
How should he explain to her the reason for testing their blood relation was because he suspected Li Wei?
However, the problem was, he hadn’t revealed to Qinghuan that Li Wei had faked his death.
Song Qinghuan found her voice again and softly said, “Do you see my brother as a villain? My brother isn’t a bad person. He treats me well. He possesses a pure heart. Actually, we are not biological siblings.”
Shi Yuhuan remained silent throughout, and the air seemed to freeze because of the silence.
Song Qinghuan did not view Shi Yuhuan’s silence as unusual; she believed that he was still upset over the Four Fingers affair. 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮
Feeling a bit cold, Song Qinghuan nestled closer to him and continued her exposition, “I didn’t know all of this before; it was only later that I heard people saying that my brother wasn’t my mother’s child. He was there before my father and mother got married. My parents, hailing from a Scholarly Family and a humble background respectively, met through matchmaking. Their values were polar opposites—one prized principles, the other, money. They shouldn’t have ended up together in the first place. However, my father got drunk one night and ended up having me with my mother, which resulted in their marriage. I remember they used to quarrel a lot when I was young. My father would always restrain himself from retaliating against my mother, but my mother only became more unruly as time passed. Finally, my father could no longer tolerate her and decided to divorce her, taking my brother with him. Honestly, at that time, I dearly wished that father would take me along as well.”
Shi Yuhuan had been looking at her sagely, but eventually spoke up in a casual tone, “Having endured your mother’s behavior all these years, haven’t you ever questioned whether she might not be your biological mother, hmm?”
Song Qinghuan sprung upright from the couch, “How could you think that way? Shi Yuhuan, do you know something?”
Her heart pounded fiercely while she stared at Shi Yuhuan in surprise.
“Just take a look at the result. You would understand,” was Shi Yuhuan’s simple response, his gaze fleetingly resting on the dossier, indicating that Song Qinghuan should pick it up.
Song Qinghuan’s body felt as though it had been immobilized.
She didn’t move an inch but kept her gaze fixed on Shi Yuhuan. “Isn’t it just the DNA verification result of me and my brother’s bloodline? What did it…
“It has your mother’s result too,” interrupted Shi Yuhuan, his profound eyes shimmered mysteriously like a cat’s.
She nodded and was about to pick up the dossier when she changed her mind.
Her arms, supple like serpents, coiled gently around Shi Yuhuan’s neck as she murmured softly to him, “It’s your request that this be verified, so you should be the one to read it first. So, go ahead and read it. Quick, read it!”
