170 I Know I Was Wrong
Chen Xiaomei was stunned. Cai Wenlun said, “The alcohol content that was in your blood far exceeded the standard for drunk driving. Fortunately, you didn’t get a DUI record. We’ve stopped it, and the fine has been dealt with. You can rest assured now.”
Cai Rixi lowered her head and said, “I know I was wrong…”
Chen Xiaomei patted Cai Rixi’s shoulder and said, “It’s good that you know you were in the wrong. You’ve always been a sensible and obedient child. You must have been under a lot of pressure recently, right? Don’t push yourself too hard.”
Cai Rixi nodded. “You both must be tired these past few days. I’m fine now. Go home and have a good rest.
Although the two of them were worried about Cai Rixi’s health, they had more important things to do in their hearts. They did not say anything and turned to leave the ward.
“Don’t tell Rixi if there’s nothing wrong after seeing the results tomorrow,” said Chen Xiaomei when they got home. “She’ll be very sad.”
Cai Wenlun said, “Since there’s no problem, why can’t we say it? You’ll know sooner or later when you go for the check-up tomorrow. Why don’t you just tell her? It’ll save you from suspicion in the future.”
Cai Wenlun paused for a moment and continued, “If, I’m saying ‘if,’ this child Rixi is really not our—”
Chen Xiaomei unusually determined on this matter and interrupted Cai Wenlun’s words, saying, “We’ll see the results tomorrow. There’s no need to think about those useless things now!”
The two of them were so upset that they did not rest well the whole night. They wanted to get the report at once and went to the hospital early in the morning.
Cai Rixi’s body was fine, and she was ready to be discharged. She looked out of the window and saw that her parents had come over, and she was very happy.
However, after waiting for a long time, her parents did not come into her ward.
Cai Rixi got up and went to find her parents in confusion. She happened to see her parents entering the director’s office with serious expressions.
Being noisy in the hospital was prohibited, so Cai Rixi did not shout. She just walked a few steps quickly and wanted to follow them in.
Unexpectedly, as soon as her parents went in, they closed the door. Just as Cai Rixi was about to knock on the door, she heard a man inside say, “The paternity results are out. Take a look for yourselves.”
When she heard the words “paternity test,” Cai Rixi was stunned, and her mind went blank. She did not care about being polite and immediately pushed the door open.
When Chen Xiaomei saw Cai Rixi come in, her face turned pale, and she hid the report behind her.
“Mom, what are you hiding?” Cai Rixi asked, trembling. “…Mom, what are you hiding?”
“You silly girl,” Cai Wenlun said calmly. “Don’t you know how to knock?”
Then, Cai Wenlun pretended to be calm and said, “It’s a physical examination for your mother and myself.”
Cai Rixi screamed, “Don’t lie to me! I heard everything, this is my paternity report!”
Chen Xiaomei immediately said, “Don’t think too much, Rixi. The results are out. It can prove that you are our child.”
Cai Rixi seemed to have suffered a huge blow. She shook her head vigorously and shouted, “Don’t tell me… You don’t want me anymore because of some drunk driving?!”
Chen Xiaomei did not expect Cai Rixi to have such a big reaction. She frowned and said, “Rixi, calm down.”
Cai Rixi got up and pounced forward, wanting to snatch the report. She said, “You can’t do this to me! No! Don’t look!”
Chen Xiaomei was caught off-guard. The report was ripped away by Cai Rixi. Rixi grabbed the report and immediately turned to run. Chen Xiaomei got up and wanted to chase after her.
Dr. Wang had seen too many of such travesties over the years, but this was an acquaintance, so he felt a little troubled.
“The hospital is quite safe,” Dr. Wang immediately said. “Mrs. Cai, I have a soft copy here. Do you want to take a look first before you go after…?”
Chen Xiaomei looked at Dr. Wang with anger in her eyes. Doctor Wang immediately turned on his computer and found the soft copy report of the paternity test.
Under the dense content, the red seal was particularly eye-catching…
[Confirmed no parent-child relationship.]
Chen Xiaomei fell back into her chair, her eyes full of tears. Dr. Wang opened another report, and on the top, it stated the same.
[Confirmed no parent-child relationship.]
Cai Wenlun stood at the side, his face full of shock. Chen Xiaomei’s eyes lost their color and she said in a hoarse voice, “Why is it like this? Why is it like this?”
Cai Wenlun was silent for a moment before he said, “At that time, when you were giving birth… There was one maid…”
Chen Xiaomei suddenly came back to her senses and said, “That’s right… That maid married a man with the surname Ming!”
Suddenly, Ming Liuyi’s every frown and smile appeared in Chen Xiaomei’s mind.
