Deng Yuan watched Xu Yihan take the brocade box from Aunt Qiu: it was black satin-covered, with a golden lock, and it stood squarely in Xu Yihan's palm.

At this moment, even Aunt Qiu became solemn unconsciously. She pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "I have received the money, then this thing... I will give it to you."

Xu Yihan just nodded and didn't speak.

After Aunt Qiu left, Xu Yihan looked at Deng Yuan with a gentle look on his face.

"Sister, if I buy this, I will have no money." He said lightly.

Deng Yuan only thought he was joking, staring at the brocade box and asking, "What is this?"

"You come and see."

Deng Yuan sat down beside Xu Yihan.

Xu Yihan smiled at him, and opened the brocade box neatly.

"Hair, my dad's," Xu Yihan said, "you can use it for a paternity test."

Deng Yuan: "Then you—"

"Ok?"

Deng Yuan probably wanted to ask, "Then are you going to do a paternity test?", but he didn't ask when the words came to his lips.Maybe he felt that there was no need to ask, the thing was in Xu Yihan's hands, so could he not do it?

Xu Yihan gently tore open the seal of the sealed bag, and pinched the lock of black, white and white hair between his fingers.Facing the sun, he kept changing angles to measure the hair, earnestly like a craftsman appraising jade.

"Sister, do you know," Xu Yihan looked away, "When I was a child, I used to very, very much hope that my dad would take me for a paternity test. I even asked him in person once. As for him, he didn't say anything. I have a meal."

Deng Yuan: "..."

Xu Yihan was still pinching that lock of hair: "At that time I was too young to understand the twists and turns. Later I realized, how could he take me for a paternity test? If I were my grandfather's child, then the Xu family would be Incest, I changed from his son to his brother - how could he take me for a paternity test."

"For a long time, I hated him and my mother. I always thought, if I was really my grandpa's child, then how could my mother do such a thing? I thought again, why did he Can't you take me for an appraisal? Since he hates me so much, why can't he give me a good time? I'm in the Xu family, everyone looks down on me, why? It's not my fault, and I didn't decide who I am! Besides, I don’t know who I am, do I?”

Xu Yihan's hand holding his hair trembled, he closed his eyes, two lines of tears slid down his cheeks.This is the second time he shed tears in front of Deng Yuan. The first time was the tenth anniversary of his mother's death. He shed tears all over his face in the dark. A boiling, bubbling kettle.

"Sister, for a long time, I wished that I wasn't Xu Yihan. It would be fine if I was Xu Yize or Xu Yiqian. In short, anyone is fine, as long as it's not Xu Yihan. I think if I wasn't Xu Yihan, they wouldn't be so right I did. Until—until later, I suddenly realized that I was not the only one," Xu Yihan wiped the tears from his face, but his voice became more choked up, "I am not the only one, just like me, I am not treated as a person by them Yes, and my mother. She was looked down upon from the moment she married into the Xu family, she was scolded, beaten, raped - if I was really her and my grandpa's child - how would she want to be with a The old man went to bed? She was raped."

Xu Yihan's whole body was trembling, only his index finger and thumb tightly pinched the lock of hair, with such strength that his fingertips turned blue-white.

"But my mother is so kind, gentle, beautiful, and capable. During the Chinese New Year, she took me back to my hometown. She can make such a big bowl of fish cakes by herself—she can also dance, kill chickens, and weave Bamboo basket, I still remember her voice. Her voice is a bit thick, but her tone of voice is always gentle. My mother is so nice, why do they say I’m a bastard? Why do they treat me like that? Me? No matter who my father is, Deng Xiuli is my mother. In fact, my mother doesn't care who my father is, I only care-they hurt my mother. "

Xu Yihan looked at Deng Yuan with red eyes: "Sometimes I feel that I am a complete piece of trash. If I want to get revenge, I have to be like a Xu family dog... But sister, you know, every time I feel that I am a complete piece of trash I comfort myself, no, I’m not rubbish, because I do all this because of my mother, because of... because I love her. But this is too much, I doubt myself a little, Am I avenging my mother, or am I just looking for reasons for myself? Maybe I am the same rotten thing as the Xu family, I just want the Xu family's property, and I am just a dog under the guise of avenging my mother? I doubted myself so many times, sister, until one day, Lao Xu died. When he died, there was only one thought in my mind, that is, I couldn't avenge my mother."

"Mountain. With. Yu. Xi."

"Then I was sure that I did all that for my mother. I don't care which dog. Japanese man's son I am. I just need to know that I am Deng Xiuli's son. It is such a simple truth. It took me half my life to figure it out - so I bought this lock of hair, 100 million, I can use this lock of hair to do a paternity test, or not, I bought this lock of hair, whether to do a paternity test or not It's totally my choice."

"Sister, I know that I am looked down upon by others. I have always been looked down upon since I was a child. Others look down on me because I am a 'wild species'. I also look down on myself because I hate the Xu family to the core but I am still the dog of the Xu family. "Xu Yihan reached into his trouser pocket and took out a black lighter, "Whether it's 'wild species' or a dog, I can't choose. Only this time, sister, this time I can choose by myself, the right to choose." It's all in my hands."

With a "click", Xu Yihan pressed the lighter, and he held a cluster of straight flames in his hand.The flames were trembling by Xu Yihan's breathing, reflected in Deng Yuan's pupils, and Deng Yuan's pupils were also trembling.

Xu Yihan brought Lao Xu's hair closer to the flame, getting closer and closer - the hair ignited!

"This is my last chance. I can choose to do a paternity test, or I can choose not to do it." Xu Yihan's face was full of tears, and he sent all the old Xu's hair into the flames, and instantly his fingertips were burned Flushing, he said word by word, "I choose not to do it, because I know who my mother is, and that's enough."

In this way, he burned Lao Xu's hair and personally ruined the last chance to know who his father was.
