Mr. Fu, please stop being abusive. Madam has already signed the divorce papers.

Fu Zheng closed the door and slowly walked to the sofa next to Wen Liang and sat down. "Aliang, the person I sent to Philadelphia has brought back the news that the child has been found."

Wen Liang was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Really?"

"Ah."

"You ask them to bring the person back."

Fu Zheng shook his head gently, "It's too late. He was picked up by someone else."

"Who?" Wen Liang was surprised again.

"Huo Dongcheng..."

Wen Liang: "..."

"According to his adoptive parents, Huo Dongcheng is the child's father."

After saying this, Fu Zheng looked at Wen Liang.

Meeting Fu Zheng's eyes, Wen Liang pursed his lips helplessly and rubbed his brows, "I... I don't remember, but I asked Bella, and indeed... he is the most likely candidate."

"possibility?"

"Well... Bella said that I have never been in a relationship in Philadelphia, but I am very close to Dongcheng brother..."

Fu Zheng: "...Brother Dongcheng?"

"Huo Dongcheng."

Fu Zheng snorted without changing his expression.

"Unhappy?" Wen Liang looked at Fu Zheng's expression and tilted her head to look at him.

Fu Zheng lowered his eyes calmly, his fingers tapping regularly on the armrest of the sofa, "No...it's just that I didn't expect it to be him..."

When he first learned about this, he should have thought it was Huo Dongcheng, but he just didn't want to believe it.

"No?" Wen Liang raised an eyebrow, took his hand, and played with his slender fingers, "Why do I smell a strong smell of vinegar?"

Fu Zheng paused, raised his head, and changed the subject seriously, "The child has been wandering outside for so many years, which means he didn't know about this at all. Now, I don't know how, he suddenly knows it."

"Yeah, I'm also curious about what happened back then. Have you found out anything?"

Fu Zheng: "According to the information found by Special Assistant Yang, when you arrived in Philadelphia, you were not used to the local food and planned to rent a house so that you could cook for yourself. After you met Huo Dongcheng, he introduced you to an apartment. But later you moved out of the apartment, and Huo Dongcheng didn't know where you moved to. He even went to the original apartment to look for you..."

For this reason, Fu Zheng has never been sure whether the child’s father is Huo Dongcheng.

Hearing this, Wen Liang was confused, "...Why didn't I tell him about my pregnancy back then?"

Fu Zheng: "Maybe you are not boyfriend and girlfriend, so pregnancy is not normal."

"...Anyway, I'll call him and find out what's going on."

"Wait a minute, Aliang, the child has been taken away by his people, what are you going to do?"

Fu Zheng asked seriously, "If you want custody of the child, I can find a way to get it back for you."

"It's too early to talk about this now. I need to communicate with Dong... Huo Dongcheng and see the child first."

"You are in confinement now, how can you meet him?"

"Let Huo Dongcheng bring him here... Or, wait until I am out of confinement and go to the capital in person."

"Okay, I'll accompany you."

Fu Zheng was determined not to let her go to see Huo Dongcheng alone, even with the children present.

"Then I'll call him now."

"Ah."

Wen Liang found Huo Dongcheng's number in the phone book and dialed it.

The phone rang for a few seconds, and then Huo Dongcheng's deep voice came from the other end, "Hello, Aliang? It's really rare that you have time to call me. How are you feeling recently?"

There was a hint of concern and intimacy in his tone.

Fu Zheng gritted his teeth.

hypocritical.

Wen Liang smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Dongcheng. I haven't informed you yet, but I just gave birth to a daughter a few days ago."

"Oh? Congratulations, but I remember you're still two months away from giving birth. How's your niece doing?"

Little niece?

Fu Zheng licked his back teeth. Who is his little niece?

"She is much weaker than a full-term newborn baby and is now living in an incubator for two months."

"Don't worry, my little niece is blessed by fate and will grow up healthy."

"Thank you, Brother Dongcheng, for your kind words."

"The time for the full moon banquet has been confirmed. Be sure to notify me so I can go see my little niece."

Fu Zheng frowned.

Still want to see his daughter?

Think beautiful.

"Okay, welcome, Brother Dongcheng."

"That's it."

After the pleasantries, Wen Liang got to the point, "By the way, Brother Dongcheng, I heard that you had someone bring a child back from Philadelphia?"

Huo Dongcheng paused, his voice revealing a bit of helplessness and vicissitudes, "You know everything?"

"Ah."

"Then... do you know his origins?"

What's the origin?

Wen Liang hesitated for a moment, "As far as I know...he is my child."

“…It’s our child.”

Fu Zheng clenched his fists and looked unfriendly.

Wen Liang glanced at him, raised her hand to cover the back of his hand to comfort him, and said into the microphone, "Brother Dongcheng, what happened back then?"

"Do you want to know?"

"of course."

Huo Dongcheng was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed and said, "Is Fu Zheng by your side?"

Wen Liang: "..."

Fu Zheng held Wen Liang's hand with his backhand, his face calm: "Just say it directly."

"Then I'll be frank," Huo Dongcheng said in a slow and distant voice, recalling the past. "That year, when Aliang first arrived in Philadelphia, I happened to be back from vacation, so I just happened to be free, so I helped him out..."

"Get to the point." Fu Zheng interrupted him.

Huo Dongcheng said slowly, "After we found a suitable apartment, Aliang invited me to dinner. She accidentally learned that I was her senior, so she asked me for advice on academic matters. We had a great chat that day... The second time we met was in a cafe. I saw Bella complaining about the professional results assigned by the professor in her circle of friends. I guessed that Aliang might have difficulties, so I took the initiative to ask her out to help..."

Fu Zheng: "...get to the point!"

insidious.

"As we interacted more frequently, I gradually fell in love with Aliang..." Huo Dongcheng paused.

Wen Liang glanced at Fu Zheng’s dark face and held his breath.

This atmosphere made her feel a little weird.

"But Aliang rejected my confession, saying that she already had someone she liked. From Bella, I learned that the person she had a crush on looked like me, so I had no choice but to continue to be friends with Aliang, hoping that Aliang would look back at me, until that Chinese gathering..."

Wen Liang realized the point and pricked up his ears to take it seriously.

"Aliang was in a bad mood that day and drank a lot of wine. I asked Bella and found out that she was hurt by her secret crush that day. Bella also drank a lot with her. After the party, Jingyuan took Bella home and I sent Aliang back. I didn't expect..."

Fu Zheng had almost expected what happened next, and interrupted him coldly, "I didn't expect that Aliang mistook you for me when he was drunk?!"

Huo Dongcheng smiled and said, "That's it."

"You know very well that she doesn't like you at all. You were not drunk, Huo Dongcheng, and you took advantage of her!" Fu Zheng was furious.
