141 Bloodline
141 Bloodline
died?I was a little surprised, frowning and asked Meng Qinliang to explain in more detail.
Meng Feng's car accident happened on the day of Liao Chi's sixth birthday. He probably wanted to visit his son secretly, but his life was taken away by a large truck that overturned on the road-I vaguely think it was the devil's fault.
With the information provided by Meng Qinliang, I can easily connect everything that happened that year: after hearing the news of Meng Feng's death, Liao Yirong was almost insane. Liao Yirong was bumped into by Liao Chi who was going out to use the bathroom.
The completely insane man treated Liao Yirong's body in an extremely cruel way in front of Liao Chi, and Liao Chi became afraid of women because of this.Afterwards, the man imprisoned Liao Chi. After three months of abuse, little Liao Chi finally escaped by jumping out of the window and was rescued by patrolling security.
In the court, the man was diagnosed with a mental illness and was sentenced to the hospital for treatment. Gu Chuan, who smelled demonic energy while escorting him, took him away and locked him in the underground secret room of the mental hospital.
After sorting out everything, the heaviness in my heart has not disappeared in the slightest.I secretly hoped to find a chance for Liao Chi to meet his biological father, but Meng Feng had died many years ago, and now Liao Chi's parents have both died since he was a child.
Meng Qinliang noticed my depression and couldn't help laughing: "You asked me what my fourth uncle is doing. You were just born when he had an accident, right? How did you know him?"
After a little hesitation, I told Meng Qinliang and Liao Chi that he might be related to Meng Feng by blood.
Meng Qinliang was so shocked that he almost choked himself to death, and shouted: "Impossible! I know his mother, a famous lady, how could she get involved with my fourth uncle when she is married?"
"Trust me." I sighed: "I originally wanted you to help get some of his hair for an appraisal with Liao Chi, but now he's gone for so many years, and I'm sure I won't be able to get anything."
Meng Qinliang hadn't recovered from the shock, "Why did you guess about my fourth uncle?"
Regarding this question, I vaguely said: "I am not an ordinary human being, so I have my own way."
"That's right, Liao Chi's father doesn't look like his own." As one of the few outsiders who knew about Liao Chi's childhood, Meng Qinliang nodded in conviction. After a little thought, he said, "Let Liao Chi be related to me Let's identify it, if he is really my fourth uncle's child, we should have the same Y chromosome. Give me a hair of his hair tomorrow, and I'll find someone to do it urgently."
"Okay, I'll trouble you then." I breathed a sigh of relief and was not polite to him.Meng Qinliang raised his lips and smiled, and said slowly: "No trouble, if Liao Chi is really from my Meng family, are you going to tell him?"
"En." I nodded: "Liao Chi guessed that he had no blood relationship with his nominal father before, and has been checking his own life experience. When it is confirmed, I will tell him the result. As for what to do next, just Let's see what he thinks."
I gave one of Liao Chi's hairs to Meng Qinliang, and two days later I received the expected identification result - Liao Chi and Meng Qinliang were indeed cousins.
Meng Qinliang couldn't help sighing that he and Liao Chi had known each other since childhood and had always regarded each other as best friends, but he didn't expect that there was such a blood relationship behind them.
I saw him filled with emotion and couldn't help laughing.After the two discussed it, they decided that I would tell Liao Chi first to see his reaction, and if Liao Chi was willing to admit the relationship with the Meng family, then Meng Qinliang would tell his family members.
When we came home from our morning run on the weekend, I handed the report to Liao Chi. Liao Chi was stunned for two seconds after reading it, and then read out the line of test results:
"The two testers are related, and they were initially identified as cousins."
I didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.
"Meng Qinliang and I...are cousins?" Liao Chi raised his head from the laboratory test sheet and looked at me in confusion. He didn't even notice the hint of asking for help in his eyes.
"Yes, I asked him to do a family test a few days ago." I grabbed his trembling hand.Softly said: "I found your biological father."
"Why do you..." He seemed to want to ask how I knew he wasn't born to that man, but his voice suddenly stopped, and he asked eagerly, "Where is he?!"
His eyes were a little moist, and because of the burning desire, I was at a loss for words. Facing such longing eyes, I didn't know how to tell him the news that Meng Feng had passed away long ago.
Noticing my hesitation, Liao Chi forced himself to relax and hold my hand tightly, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, just tell me, I can bear it."
I sighed, pulled him into my arms, and kissed his forehead: "He's...not here anymore."
Liao Chi didn't move, he blinked for a while, and let out a soft ah.
The corners of his eyes were red, and he fell into a panic-stricken silence.I forcibly suppressed the sadness welling up in my heart, raised a gentle smile, and asked softly: "Do you want to go see him with me?"
Meng Feng's tomb is in a private cemetery-style cemetery. When we arrived, Meng Qinliang was already waiting there. He was not familiar with the fourth uncle who died young, so naturally he had no feelings for him. He was copying his hands in his pockets , looking down at the photo on the tombstone of his grandmother who died of illness.
"Here we come." Seeing us coming, Meng Qinliang greeted Liao Chi, and smiled at Liao Chi. This was the first time the two met after knowing their relationship, and it was somewhat awkward.Liao Chi called "Brother Meng". Although it was still the same address as usual, the meaning had changed.
Liao Chi stood in front of Meng Feng's tomb, squatted down and put down the flowers in his hands, looking at the photos on the tombstone.The young man's eyebrows and eyes were three points similar to his, but more masculine and rough. He looked forward and met Liao Chi's eyes in the photo, with a heroic smile.
Liao Chi stretched out his hand and touched the photo lightly.
Meng Qinliang winked at me, and I followed him away quietly, making sure that Liao Chi couldn't hear the content of the conversation at this distance, Meng Qinliang said: "I will tell my father about Liao Chi. Having said that, my dad took fourth uncle's blood sample for identification."
"Blood sample?" I frowned: "It's been more than 20 years and there are still samples left?"
"It was the watch my fourth uncle was wearing when the accident happened. There was his blood on it. My grandmother kept it and it was taken by my dad for extraction." Meng Qinliang lowered his voice: "When the results come out, he wants to Liao Chi recognizes his ancestors and returns to his clan."
"This..." I was suddenly worried, and looked at Liao Chi from a distance: "It depends on Liao Chi's intentions."
"I know, so I asked my dad not to say it for the time being." Meng Qinliang spread his hands: "But he will definitely agree, after all, I have known him for so many years and I know what he thinks. I don’t want to say it, but I definitely want to recognize my father’s family in my heart.”
"Okay, as long as you know it in your heart." I believe in Meng Qinliang, because of one thing, my impression of him has improved a lot.The two stood side by side for a while, when Liao Chi stood up and looked towards us.
We walked over, Liao Chi traced the handwriting on the cold tombstone, and sighed softly.
"Thank you."
"What are you polite about?" Meng Qinliang waved his hand, "I have always regarded you as a brother before, but I didn't expect that you are really my younger brother. I will treat you to dinner after a while."
"Okay." Liao Chi smiled slightly, with an indelible tiredness in his eyes, I quietly held his hand hanging by his side, and warmed his cold fingertips with the warmth of my palm.
After staying in the cemetery for a short time, we went back. Liao Chi began to investigate the relationship with the Meng family. I didn't tell him what I knew, and I chose to let him uncover the mystery of my life experience little by little.
Some pain cannot be shared with anyone, and licking the wound quietly and alone is the best way for him to deal with it.
Meng Qinliang sent Liao Chi and Meng Feng a paternity test that turned out to be father and son. I handed it to Liao Chi. Liao Chizai read it carefully and remained silent all night.He went alone to the cemetery where his mother was buried, and locked the certificate in the safe when he came back.Then he kept silent as if he never knew about it.
I tentatively asked him if he would like the Meng family to recognize him, but he shook his head without hesitation, obviously thinking about it a long time ago.
This was a result neither Meng Qinliang nor I expected, and I couldn't help asking in surprise, "Why?"
"This is the life I want most now, and I don't want to break it." Liao Chi stroked my bristly short hair and said with a smile, "The Meng family probably doesn't know about it either, just right, both sides can do it." Do not disturb each other."
I was speechless, and my intuition told me that this was just an excuse Liao Chi had come up with to prevaricate me.It took another two days before I suddenly realized: Liao Chi insisted not to recognize the Meng family because he didn't want Liao Yirong to bear the notoriety of cheating in marriage.
After all, in the entire Liao family, no one knew that Liao Chi was actually Meng Feng's child, and everything that Liao Chi's nominal father said was regarded as the nonsense of a mental patient. No one thought of making Liao Chi and him a parent. Identification.Liao Chi would rather continue to be a mentally ill son than disturb his mother's cleanliness after death.
I don't know what to say, I can only respect his choice, no matter what, as long as he is happy.
Happy days always go by quickly, and the New Year is coming in a blink of an eye. The company has a five-day holiday, and Liao Chi and I have to go back to our home for the New Year. On the afternoon of the 29th, I returned to my hometown smoothly.
My mother, who is a physics teacher, drove to pick me up. She had the same long winter vacation as the students. If she had nothing to do, she went to my dad's express store to help, sent me home, and continued to visit the store.
Dad went to the market to buy vegetables and hadn’t come back yet. I didn’t bring my luggage and went to my room empty-handed. I took off my clothes and fell asleep without saying a word.
Awakened by the sound of the range hood, I dazedly touched my phone, looked at the time and guessed that Liao Chi should be on the plane now, didn't send him a message, got up and went into the kitchen feeling the sound.
"do you need my help?"
Mr. Lao Lin waved his frying spoon and chased me away: "Get out, you boy, what kind of kitchen are you going into?"
"...From what standpoint did you say this to me?" I was completely speechless: "If you don't go into the kitchen, do you have to eat takeaway every day?"
"Stupid you." The double-standard old Mr. Lin gave me a blank look: "Won't your wife do it for you?"
I:……………………
I really wanted to tell Lao Lin that I also found a wife who couldn't cook like him, but for the sake of his fragile heart, I still touched my nose and slipped away without a word.
