Rebirth of the Little Actor – Chapter 19
19 – The little fool wouldn’t have run away from home after confessing the truth, right?!
After saying goodbye to Ning Rong at the hospital, even if he was slow, An Xing also noticed that something was wrong with An Zhaoming.
He was still a bit confused, knowing that when he saw An Zhaoming return Ning Rong’s ID card to him, his face was still innocent, but his heart jumped heavily. Then thinking back to An Zhaoming when he heard Ning Rong said that he was wrongly carried back then, but never questioned him, and in his heart, he realized that there was something wrong.
Confession can not be delayed, An Xing silently thought.
When they entered the house, Shen Ying arrived home one step ahead of them, urging her son to go drink some congee and hurry upstairs to rest.
“That family is too much! What does our Xingxing have to do with this matter, and we still have to be dragged into it.”
The woman rambled indignantly, pulling her son’s hands and arms to inspect them, seeing the scratches and bruises on An Xing’s left hand, her heart ached.
“Luckily the injury isn’t too bad, or I’ll see how you can do crafts from now on!”
An Xing shrunk his neck, the whole person a large write of well-behaved, and spoke hesitantly period.
“Mom are you alright? Did it scare you?”
Just now, Shen Ying looked so sad that she couldn’t stand still, which scared An Xing.
The woman sneered.
“Where am I that fragile, your mom, I was just acting!”
An Xing:!
“You little fool, they didn’t even use much strength, you can get weak in the legs and get pushed into the water. If I don’t act, are you planning to continue arguing with people after being fished out?!”
An Xing: ……
“What happened to the kid who pulled you up?”
The teenager wilted and didn’t say anything, An Zhaoming looked back and answered.
“Sent to his friend’s house.”
“I told you not to show off blindly, and you did it for me!” Shen Ying poked her son’s forehead hard, “You stay away from that kid in the future!”
“Cough, don’t guilt-trip the victim.” An Zhaoming lightly coughed, “This is mainly an accident today.”
Shen Ying was in an emotional state at the moment, and was annoyed at anyone who got involved with An Xing’s falling into the water, and hearing the man’s words, she turned around to glare at him.
“You can talk now, why don’t you usually teach your son! Quarreling with people but still been hit, An Zhaoming this is not your son!”
An Zhaoming blurted out, “Of course it’s my son! How could it not be my son!”
An Xing’s eyes reddened and tears fell.
“…… Xingxing? XingXing what are you crying for?”
Shen Ying was the first to notice the teenager’s tears and was surprised. An Zhaoming’s heart sank violently when he saw his son’s expression.
The words that came out of his mouth often represented the truest thoughts, and the moment he heard An Zhaoming’s words, An Xing felt that the invisible boulder that was weighing heavily on his heart, at this moment, also fell down.
He looked up at An Zhaoming and Shen Ying, did not say anything, went upstairs to his room, took out the report that Lu Tian Shen had given him earlier, came downstairs with heavy steps, and handed it to the two people.
“I pulled out dad’s hair and my hair that day and sent it for a paternity test.”
“……”
Inside the room was an unbearable dead silence, An Zhaoming’s face was expressionless. Shen Ying also fell silent, looking at the bag of papers and then at the teenager, as if realizing something, her eyes slowly reddened. She stumbled a step backward, her body swaying.
“Mom!”
An Xing rushed over and reached out to help the woman.
Shen Cherry grasped the teenager’s wrist in a backhand death grip, her gaze slowly moving from the teenager’s anxious and guilty face to the file bag.
An Zhaoming held the document bag and felt a little burned. He was silent for a long time and stood up to help Shen Ying.
“It’s late today, it’s time to rest ……”
“Open it.”
Shen Ying’s voice was hoarse and calm.
An Zhaoming was silent again for a while, did not rush to open the file bag, first helped Shen Ying to sit on the sofa, then backhandedly pressed An Xing next to Shen Ying, then sat down himself.
He looked at the bright red official seal on the document bag, saw that the sealed bag had already been opened, sighed silently, and took out one of the documents under the watchful eyes of the two.
The line of results was conspicuous and blinding.
An Zhaoming closed his eyes, his worst guess came true, he was strangely calm. More than this result, he was more worried about ……
“A’Ying?”
The woman unconsciously clutched something in her hand, her reddened eyes staring at the line in death. It wasn’t until she averted her gaze that she realized she had been clutching her son’s wrist, and then let go of her hand like an electric shock. She looked down and saw her son’s wrist, clutched by herself made a circle of red marks.
“Xingxing ……”
An Xing shrunk his right hand, not crying out in pain, and only halfway looked up, forcing a smile.
“I’m sorry. I …… didn’t know how to tell you guys ……”
“Brother Shen helped me with the tests. The testing organization said that they used all the hair I sent in, and the rest of the test material was destroyed, so no one knows about this except Brother Shen.”
“I …… I really didn’t expect this to happen. Anyway ……”
“Since I’m not your child, it’s better to get your real child back quickly, and I’ll move out quickly ……”
An Zhaoming and Shen Ying did not doubt the authenticity of this test report at all, because An Xing had no need to lie, and this child’s low spirits in the past few days and the discomfort he felt just now were all explained.
Everything in front of them was real and absurd, and they were still a little muddled and unable to react at the moment. They listened woodenly to An Xing speak, the voice seemed to be separated by a thin veil, indistinct and hazy. Until they heard the teenager’s last words.
“Nonsense! What moving out! You’re only a few years old and you want to go out and live by yourself!”
An Zhaoming refused without even thinking.
“Xingxing do you disown your mom? Just because you weren’t born to mommy, you disown mommy?”
Shen Ying’s face was sad, and tears slowly slid down.
An Xing’s nose was sour, he was already holding back his sadness, and at this time, the only bit of intention he had could not be maintained, and all of a sudden, he flung himself into Shen Ying’s arms.
“No, it’s not …… I don’t want to leave you guys woohoo!”
Shen Ying embraced the teenager, An Zhaoming also wiped his face and grabbed An Xing’s shoulders.
“It’s not easy to raise you so big, you said you’ll move away?”
The man’s eyes were also red, and his always majestic and solemn voice trembled a little.
“Don’t even think about it! You honestly support me and your mom in our old age! According to our country’s inheritance law, you have to take up the obligation if you constitute an adoption relationship!”
In his last life, Shen Ying, who knew the truth, was so irritated that she fainted on the spot, and An Xing and An Zhaoming sent the person to the hospital and watched over the woman to wake up. After Shen Ying woke up, An Xing proposed to move out.
At that time, Shen Ying and An Zhaoming made the exact same reaction as today.
Listening to the familiar words that he had heard once in his previous life, An Xing’s tears still could not stop.
He had once worried, would it be possible that in this life by him telling the truth, mom and dad would change their opinion of him, and would not be so …… in love with him anymore. Such thoughts were childish, but he was only twenty years old, he cared about them too much, and in the face of such a big event, it was really hard to keep his sanity.
Maybe all those excuses were fake, and the only reason he put off confessing until the accident was probably just because he was scared.
“I’ll support you in your old age,” the teenager drawled, “if you want me or not, I’ll support you all in your old age.”
Aunt Zhang, who cooks for the family, is on vacation today, and Uncle Li went back to his house after picking up Shen Ying from the police station, so there are only the three of them in the villa. The three members of the family hugged and cried, but it was An Zhaoming who calmed down first and helped An Xing to finish the porridge by holding him down and sent upstairs to rest.
“You fell into the water today, go take a shower and hurry to sleep. Other things, let’s talk tomorrow.” An Zhaoming said, “This appraisal, is that Lu family kid helping you?”
An Xing nodded, obediently smearing An Hao: “That time I quarreled with my cousin, and I heard some rumors, and I was momentarily angry …… Brother Shen promised that he would not tell others, and the appraisal was also done in his private hospital.”
An Zhaoming was not too worried about leaks, after all, Lu Tian Shen was very reliable. Besides, as long as he and Shen Ying were prepared for this kind of thing, even if it leaked out, it wouldn’t be too much of a problem.
On the contrary, nowadays, it seemed that the rumors in the company had to be investigated to find out what was going on.
He did not move and nodded his head, seeing his son finish the porridge, he drove the person upstairs to his room, then turned around, sitting next to Shen Ying.
“A’Ying ……”
Shen Ying opened her mouth, no longer hiding in front of An Zhaoming, tears smashed down drop by drop.
“Why ……”
Why did their family encounter such a thing.
An Zhaoming was also heartbroken. He had just had a bit of a shake up during the day, and was feeling like he had a sick brain blindly guessing, who would have thought that that bit of absurd speculation would just be so caught off guard and become true. He sighed.
“On the bright side, it’s fortunate that it was Xingxing who found out about this. If we let outsiders know about this, our family would be even more reactive.”
The An Family was a large family, not without people coveting it. If someone with ill intent knew about this matter first and contacted their own son in advance, or secretly encouraged and threatened An Xing, then the trouble would be even greater.
Shen Ying shook her head. She is not referring to the money, but …… how sad it must be for that child to find out this kind of thing and have to confess himself.
How frightened and guilty An Xing should be these days.
“Our …… son, we have to find him as soon as possible.”
Shen Ying grabbed her husband’s hand.
” Xingxing didn’t do anything wrong, and his parents shouldn’t be kept in the dark.”
“We, as parents, can’t let Xingxing bear these pressures.”
As a mother, she couldn’t just be sad at times like this, or else their family would fall apart.
An Zhaoming shook his wife’s hand.
“Okay.”
That night, the two tossed and turned, neither of them sleeping well. Shen Ying got up the next day and decided to make something delicious to make her son happier. But by the time she made breakfast, An Zhaoming had already come down, and An Xing’s room was still quiet.
“Xingxing? Got up yet?”
Shen Ying went upstairs to tell her son to get up, knocked on the door of the room, and couldn’t hear a single movement inside.
Wait, the little fool wouldn’t have run away from home after confessing the truth, right?
Shen Ying felt that with her son’s IQ, he could really do this thing, and hurriedly wrenched open the door to go in, and saw the teenager shrinking under the covers, sleeping soundly.
She breathed a sigh of relief and quietly walked into the dimly lit room, and was about to push her son awake when her gaze lurched.
The teenager was curled up in a ball, his face red with fever.
