Chapter 209: Illegitimate Child Exposed
Last night, Ye Wanqing fell asleep earlier than usual. When the first ray of light in the early morning quietly entered the room, around half past six, she slowly opened her eyes.
The morning light in May is gentle and shy. Although the clock has not yet pointed to seven, the horizon is already filled with brilliant morning glow, like a painter's lightly applied watercolor, gradually spreading to the horizon.
She gently opened the curtains, allowing the golden sunlight to pour into the house unhindered, warm but not dazzling.
Ye Wanqing has an important schedule today, she is going to the hospital for a follow-up visit.
These days, she felt that she was in a very good state. Even though Zhang Duoer and Xu Xinyi kept making small moves in an attempt to disturb her peaceful life, when Zhang Duoer came to visit last night, Lin Xuan happened to be present. She chose to treat him with a detached attitude, as if the other party was just a speck of dust in the air, which she brushed past gently and ignored.
As for the threatening text messages that were sent to her for two consecutive nights, she was completely unaware of them, because Lin Xuan had quietly built a firewall for her, intercepting them all and throwing them into the trash can.
Although this action may seem like an attempt to cover up one's own faults, it actually gave her a little spiritual comfort.
For breakfast, Ye Wanqing chose a simple yet exquisite meal, paired with a cup of warm milk, to store up energy for the upcoming follow-up visit.
She wore a light floral dress with a pair of comfortable white flat shoes, which was both elegant and easy to move in.
On the way to the hospital, she deliberately set off an hour early to avoid the morning rush hour congestion.
At 8:40, her car was parked steadily in the hospital parking lot.
Dr. Guan arrived a little earlier than the agreed time. When she walked through the waiting area and her eyes met Ye Wanqing's, she immediately smiled warmly and led her directly into the clinic.
"It seems that you are in very good condition today. You must have had a good dream last night?" Doctor Guan said with some approval.
Ye Wanqing smiled and responded, "Yes, Doctor Guan, I followed your advice and called the police." Her tone revealed a hint of determination, "Also, I didn't take sleeping pills last night."
A glint of relief flashed in Dr. Guan's eyes: "This is really good news! I'm very happy about your progress."
After Dr. Guan was dressed and the two of them sat down, Dr. Guan continued to ask, "Any progress from the police side?"
"There's no specific feedback yet, but I already have the answer in my mind." Ye Wanqing's voice was calm and firm. "It's Xu Xinyi."
Doctor Guan frowned slightly upon hearing this. "Ms. Xu, didn't you have a legal dispute with her before? She just ended that incident, so why is she back at it so soon?"
Ye Wanqing shook her head slightly, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes: "Perhaps, she is unable to let go of her feelings for Lin Xuan."
Upon hearing this, Dr. Guan just sighed softly and did not delve into the matter further. Instead, he started talking about other light topics.
The half-hour follow-up consultation passed in a flash. After examining Ye Wanqing's physical condition, Dr. Guan offered encouragement: "Your mental state has indeed improved significantly. Keep it up. Remember to take your medicine on time and don't stop without authorization."
"I will. Thank you, Dr. Guan." Ye Wanqing nodded seriously. She has always been an obedient patient, and this well-behaved behavior made Dr. Guan like her even more.
Before leaving the clinic, Ye Wanqing stood at the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Doctor Guan, do you think that emotions arising from certain specific situations are trustworthy?"
Dr. Guan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this. This was the first time she heard Ye Wanqing ask about love.
She smiled and asked, "Which lucky guy has made your heart beat again?"
Ye Wanqing's cheeks flushed slightly. She bit her lower lip and replied in a low voice: "It's still him."
"Oh? You're attracted to the same person twice?" Dr. Guan seemed quite surprised.
Ye Wanqing was speechless for a moment and could only smile awkwardly: "Well, I won't bother you for now, Doctor Guan."
"Don't be nervous, Ye Wanqing." Doctor Guan patted her shoulder gently. "Life is about enjoying every moment. No matter how the relationship arises, what matters is whether you treat each other sincerely."
Ye Wanqing nodded gratefully and left the hospital with Dr. Guan's encouragement.
As soon as I got back into the car, my cell phone rang rapidly. It was a call from the police station.
The police told her that the person who sent the threatening text messages had been confirmed to be Xu Xinyi, and they had already given her a verbal warning. If Ye Wanqing wished to take further legal action, they were willing to provide all necessary evidence.
"Thank you, Officer Li. I understand." Ye Wanqing hung up the phone, feeling mixed emotions.
She put the medicine bottle aside and her eyes fell on her vibrating phone. It was a message from Lin Xuan asking about her follow-up visit.
She smiled slightly, touched the screen with her fingertips, and replied: "Everything is fine, don't worry."
Qin Zhuyu sent more than a dozen WeChat messages to Ye Wanqing in succession. Ye Wanqing clicked into the chat interface and after browsing it, she couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.
"Is this true?" she replied quickly.
Qin Zhuyu seemed to be particularly free today. As soon as Ye Wanqing sent the message, he replied immediately: "It's absolutely true! Check it out online, it's still up there! Even the photos have been leaked! Hey, you didn't see it, Xu Honghua's illegitimate son looks exactly like his father, Xu Xinrong!"
Ye Wanqing immediately opened Weibo and scrolled to the bottom of the hot searches in the city, where she found the entry "Xu Group Chairman's Illegitimate Son Exposed."
Although the popularity of the hot searches in the same city cannot be compared with the hot search list, it is enough to make everyone in the city know about it.
Ye Wanqing logged out of Weibo and sent a message to Qin Zhuyu: "I see, the Xu family is probably going to be in turmoil these days. I'm leaving first."
After saying that, she put her phone aside and drove back to the villa.
And at this moment, the Xu family has indeed "exploded".
Early in the morning, the news that Xu Honghua's illegitimate child was exposed became a hot search in the city, and related photos were circulated wildly in the circle.
Before breakfast was over, Xu's mother received a call from Mrs. Wang, who was her worst enemy. "Mrs. Xu, your family is trending on the internet. Did you see that? Congratulations, you have another son!"
Xu's mother was already unhappy because she received a call from Mrs. Wang early in the morning. Unexpectedly, the other party said a bunch of words she couldn't understand. Xu's mother directly accused Mrs. Wang of being crazy.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang, who usually has a hot temper, didn't get angry this time and didn't hang up the phone. "Oh, Mrs. Xu, how can you curse me? I'm just kindly reminding you that your husband's mistress is now known to the whole capital!"
"Mrs. Wang! We are all people who value our dignity. You said these nonsense so early in the morning. If you don't apologize, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Oh my, I'm telling the truth. Why should I apologize? If you don't believe me, just look at WeChat for yourself! I sent you a photo. Is it your Lao Xu? Don't you recognize him?"
After saying that, Mrs. Wang hung up the phone.
Mother Xu opened WeChat with a sullen face. When she saw the trending search terms and the photos, she instantly became furious.
At this time, Xu Xinrong was drinking soy milk and reading a newspaper, just like usual.
Xu's mother picked up a decorative ornament and smashed it hard on the table.
A loud "bang" instantly broke the Xu family's early morning tranquility.
Xu Xinrong was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and looked at Xu's mother coldly: "What's wrong with you so early in the morning?!"
"I'm crazy? Xu Xinrong! Are you worthy of me? You're actually having a mistress outside!"
Xu Xinrong felt guilty for a moment, but only for a moment. He thought he had hidden it so well that Xu's mother wouldn't be able to find out. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm either at the office or at home all day long. How could I be hiding a mistress?!"
Xu's mother had been a housewife for over 30 years. When she learned today that her husband had cheated on her, she instantly collapsed and beat and smashed things at Xu Xinrong: "I'm talking nonsense? There are pictures of you and that mistress everywhere now! And that illegitimate child! That illegitimate child is already in his twenties. How dare you do this to me!"
Xu Xinrong felt confused. Xu's mother grabbed his shoulder so hard that it hurt, so he subconsciously pushed her away.
The eldest son of the Xu family, who had just come downstairs, quickly reached out to support Xu's mother: "Mom and Dad, what are you doing?"
When Xu's mother saw her son coming, she seemed to have found support: "What am I doing? Your father has a mistress outside! And he has an illegitimate child in his twenties! You ask me what I do, but you should ask what your father did!"
Xu Xinyi just walked to the stairs and heard what her mother said. Her face turned pale in an instant: "Mom, did you misunderstand Dad? Why would Dad support someone outside? He has always been to you-"
"Misunderstanding? Look at these photos, isn't it a misunderstanding?"
Xu Xinyi took the phone and saw the photo. She was also in disbelief: "Dad?!"
Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Father Xu no longer tried to hide it: "It was all an accident. She got pregnant with my child and gave birth to it. What can I do? Haven't I been good enough to you all these years?"
Xu's mother completely lost control and rushed forward to beat Xu's father while crying and shouting.
Early in the morning, the noise at the Xu family's house was even more lively and exciting than the market outside.
