Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 823: Chapter 823: The Results of the Paternity Test

"Xiao Yue, what’s wrong with him?" Zhang Hualian asked with concern.

Tang Yue looked at Zhang Hualian, puzzled, and said, "Mom, I don’t know either."

"Xiao Yang is a pure and kind child, excellent in studies, and even has his own career. This young man is truly remarkable." Zhang Hualian didn’t like the Lian Family, but she admired Lian Qingyang.

"Xiao Yang is indeed very good."

Tang Yue nodded.

In the bathroom, as the hot water washed over Lian Qingyang, the small bathroom filled with steam, slowly calming him down.

"Where’s Uncle Tang?" During dinner, Lian Qingyang didn’t see Tang Zhengde and asked curiously.

"My dad’s at the shop; he won’t be back until after nine." Tang Yue explained, giving him a knowing look and said, "Xiao Yang, are you thinking about my dad’s cooking?"

"Hehe."

Lian Qingyang laughed brightly and said, "Yes, Uncle Tang’s cooking is delicious. I haven’t had it in a long time."

"Sister Xiao Yue, this pork bone is nutritious, you should eat more." Lian Qingyang scooped the ribs into Tang Yue’s bowl, piling the bone soup into her bowl until it was full. He said, "We can’t let my little nephew go hungry."

"Maybe it’s a niece." Tang Yue touched her swelling belly, a smile playing on her lips.

"Whether it’s a nephew or a niece, I like them both." Lian Qingyang grinned broadly and said, "I’ll be their uncle in the future."

"That’s right." Tang Yue affirmed with a nod.

Zhang Hualian occasionally chimed in. Perhaps because she had been dreaming about things from years ago, looking at Lian Qingyang and Tang Yue, they seemed like real siblings. Even a strange thought arose—could Qingyang be her own child?

As soon as this thought arose, Zhang Hualian dismissed it. Impossible, impossible. Lian Qingyang was Xiang Yazhi’s child and had nothing to do with her.

Zhang Hualian quietly ate her meal, feeling that she had been somewhat abnormal lately.

After dinner, only Tang Yue and Lian Qingyang were left in the living room.

"Tell me, what happened?" Tang Yue tilted her head, looking at Lian Qingyang. His lively and cheerful nature made it impossible for him to hide anything.

"Sister Xiao Yue."

Lian Qingyang looked nervously at Tang Yue. Meeting her bright eyes made him feel trusted and reliant—something he never felt from Lian Qingqing.

He hugged a small pillow from the side, blinking and said, "If I weren’t your real brother, would you still treat me well?"

I’m not your real brother?

He knows?

Tang Yue’s expression darkened, and she said, "Xiao Yang, no matter who you are, you’re my real brother. In my heart, you’re just like Xiao Jun, my real brother."

"Really?" Lian Qingyang’s eyes lit up instantly, then he looked at Tang Yue with suspicion.

Tang Yue gave a gentle smile. If he didn’t bring it up, she wouldn’t either.

Lian Qingyang held her gaze for a long time, then said, "Sister Xiao Yue, being your brother is a blessing I earned in a past life."

"Certainly is. You should cherish it." Tang Yue said playfully, then asked, "By the way, how’s your computer factory going?"

"Many of the hardware pieces need to be imported, which is a bit costly. But don’t worry, it will definitely make money." Lian Qingyang said with confidence, almost ready to pat his chest in assurance. Their computers even came with a game developed by them, which, while not profitable, was a major selling point for the computers.

Tang Yue listened intently, occasionally offering lots of advice.

In the kitchen, Zhang Hualian listened to their conversation, and that absurd idea began to creep up on her again.

Sea City.

"Big brother." Lian Tong wanted to comfort him but didn’t know where to start, as she was also very nervous.

Today, the results of the paternity test would be released.

"Xiaotong, whatever the result, I can handle it." Lian He took a deep breath, waiting until the doctor handed him the test results.

When the words "No biological relation" appeared in black and white, Lian He felt dizzy. Though the paper was thin as a wing, why did it feel so crushing?

"Xiang Yazhi."

As soon as Lian Tong saw the results, she left with gritted teeth to settle the score with Xiang Yazhi.

Lian He was still reeling from the shock, unaware that Lian Tong had left. He sat in the hallway with the results in hand. To an outsider, it might seem like Lian He was suffering from an incurable disease.

In the shadows, Shen Jing looked at Lian He’s appearance with pleasure. When Suniang died, she still thought of him. Now, he was tasting the bitterest part of life. Believing his biological son wasn’t actually his? What could be more painful?

Seeing Lian He’s anguished expression made Shen Jing happiest. All the lengths he went to bring Lian Qingyang here, crafting a fake identity, having Xiang Yazhi take him in were not in vain.

When Lian Qingyang learns the truth, will father and son turn against each other?

Shen Jing was eagerly anticipating it.

Lian Tong stormed out, heading straight to confront Xiang Yazhi. But before she could, Gu Chun had already shown up.

"Don’t stop me. Even if I kill her, it won’t quench the rage in my heart." Lian Tong’s face turned blue with anger. How did Xiang Yazhi have the audacity to raise someone else’s child with her brother?

If it weren’t for Xiao Yue, her brother would have gone through life without his own biological children, raising two for someone else?

Fortunately, they found Xiao Yue.

Lian Tong felt very grateful in that moment. Otherwise, her brother’s biological child would suffer while someone else’s child claimed her brother’s child’s place. The thought of it fueled her anger.

"Tongtong, do you want the whole city to know that neither of the children your brother raised is his?" Gu Chun’s single sentence quickly calmed Lian Tong down.

Lian Tong widened her eyes and said, "Then we’ll act quietly, so no one knows."

"In broad daylight, how can you act quietly?" Gu Chun glanced at the scorching sun.

"I can’t help it." Lian Tong twisted her clothes so tightly they were nearly torn. She wouldn’t feel at ease until she acted on her anger.

Gu Chun took her hand and said, "Tongtong, we can do it this way."

Gu Chun’s soft voice whispered in Lian Tong’s ear, and her furious expression softened instantly.

The sky was dark and the wind howled. Xiang Yazhi was waiting for Shen Jing to come back, yet before he did, someone knocked her out, leaving her to sleep with another man.

When Shen Jing returned, he saw Xiang Yazhi entangled with another man in bed, his face darkened with rage. He nearly beat the other man to death. Though he had no affection for Xiang Yazhi, he wouldn’t let another touch his woman.

As Xiang Yazhi came to her senses, she lay bare, sobbing that she had mistaken the man for Shen Jing and pleading that someone had framed her.

In the shadows, Lian Tong finally exhaled a breath she held for a long time. Hitting someone was one thing; destroying Xiang Yazhi’s support was the most decisive retaliation.
