Chapter 163: As the Water Recedes, the Rocks Emerge (1)_1
"We’re waiting for the results of the test," Old Master Jia didn’t wait for Old Master Situ to speak, and rushed to reply.
"Oh, I see, what kind of test is it? Do you need me to hurry them up for you?" The vice president wanted to please these two old men, but it was quite apparent that the attempt to flatter them had backfired. Once the vice president spoke, he was met with unhappy looks from both old masters.
The vice president didn’t realize what he had said wrong, and it was only because of the president’s indication not to speak further that he stopped talking. Although both the president and vice president stopped speaking, knowing their place, they couldn’t leave while the two distinguished guests remained.
Originally, when Jia Zhengce was summoned by Old Master Jia, he was very uncomfortable, but he dared not complain too much in front of his father. Given his way of doing things, he would certainly leave once everything was done. However, unexpectedly, after completing the paternity test with Situ Haoran, Jia Zhengce stayed.
He didn’t stay because he had discovered something upon seeing Ling Ruobing, but he felt that there was something odd about the day’s events; it was strange how his old man had suddenly called him back for a paternity test, and it wasn’t just him. The other person was someone he would never have expected—Situ Haoran.
There, while Old Master Situ and Old Master Jia were talking with the president and vice president, Jia Zhengce walked over to Situ Haoran, playfully bumped into him, and said, "Tell me, Situ Haoran, what’s this about? You’ve even fallen to the point of having to do a paternity test at the hospital. Heh heh, it seems your private life isn’t as straightforward as it appears~." As he said this, Jia Zhengce laughed to himself.
But Situ Haoran didn’t say anything and just frowned at him. Meanwhile, Situ Haotian, seeing his elder brother being laughed at, felt very uncomfortable and burst out wanting to defend his big brother, but he was stopped by Situ Haoran, who shook his head to signal not to be impulsive. They would address the issue after the results were out.
After completing the paternity test, Liang Ruobing sat in a chair in the corner silently, her head lowered, her expression hidden from Situ Xin’s view. However, Situ Xin felt that Liang Ruobing was also a child with a hard fate.
It’s known that Jia Zhengce had already married and even had a son. Moreover, according to the investigation results from the Dragon Society, Jia Zhengce was keeping five mistresses outside, and two of them had already borne him children. Naturally, all these were kept secret, and if it weren’t for the intelligence network under Dragon Society, Situ Xin might not have been able to dig up this information.
Even with such a biological father, if the results came out, there would be no benefits for Ling Ruobing.
Situ Xin might feel pity for Liang Ruobing, but she was not a saint, ready to reach out and help her.
