Getting Huo Tian’s promise was a pleasant surprise for Xi Cheng.
He smiled and said, “Didn’t you say just now that you were going to stand on your mother’s side? Why are you agreeing to help me now?”
Huo Tian argued, “This doesn’t conflict at all. Mom has never forgotten you, and you’ve never made any principle-based mistakes. According to my estimations, there’s a high chance that the two of you will get back together. Therefore, it’s not a big deal for me to help you a little. If Mom makes up her mind to ignore you, I won’t let her be sad either.”
Xi Cheng suddenly had a feeling that even if he were to be accepted by this pair of mother and daughter again, his status in the family wouldn’t be too high.
However, even though he could predict that his family’s status was going to be low, Xi Cheng was still filled with anticipation for that kind of future.
Huo Tian was not an ordinary person after all. After the initial shock, she quickly composed herself and continued to remain calm when she interacted with Xi Cheng thereafter.
She even discussed with Xi Cheng the timing for him and Ding Rong to reunite and the two of them came up with a simple plan.
After telling Huo Tian about their relationship in a moment of agitation and getting a response that was a pleasant surprise, Xi Cheng wanted to strike while the iron was hot and quickly reunite with Ding Rong. He had been separated from his wife for more than ten years. He really did not want to wait another second.
Huo Tian dismissed Xi Cheng’s impulse. She insisted on waiting for the DNA results to come out and confirm Xi Cheng’s identity before letting Ding Rong know about this. Her mother missed her father very much and she didn’t want to disappoint her…
Xi Cheng had also planned on doing a DNA test previously. Today, he had only wanted to test Huo Tian’s thoughts on her father and to leave her biological sample for testing. Therefore, he had contacted an authoritative testing agency long ago, wanting to get the results as soon as possible.
However, in order to eliminate the influence of other factors to the greatest extent, Huo Tian had proposed to look for another organization to do the test. It would take a longer time. Even if Xi Cheng was anxious, there was nothing he could do. He could not blame Huo Tian for being troublesome. Moreover, he felt that he could not refuse any of Huo Tian’s decisions now.
Huo Tian had come to the Xi Family today to make adjustments for the equipment, but this matter had been completely ignored. No one brought up this matter until she and Si Huan left.
Si Huan wanted to drive Huo Tian home, so he went through another round of dissatisfied gazes from Xi Cheng. He felt that he really encountered a lot of hurdles in his love life. The Ding Family’s siblings were already difficult to deal with, but now, there was Xi Cheng.
He would probably become the biggest obstacle in Si Huan’s love life. Si Huan had already sighed countless times in his heart and couldn’t help but want to sigh ‘alas’.
Huo Tian had a lot on her mind as she unconsciously played with the jade pendant. Clearly, today’s matter had made her unable to calm down for a while.
Si Huan stopped the car on a quiet street.
Huo Tian suddenly came back to her senses from her messy thoughts. She subconsciously looked around. “Are we already home?”
Si Huan said, “No, I just want to have a good talk with you.”
Huo Tian turned to look at Si Huan and realized that he was looking at her with a gentle and tolerant gaze. That gaze did not have any sense of invasion, but it seemed to be able to reach deep into her heart.
Huo Tian pouted and her tone unconsciously became a little spoiled. “What? I was still thinking of how to tell you about it but it turns out that you already know.”
“Actually, I only guessed it today. Before you talked to Uncle Xi, I verified my guess,” Si Huan explained. “Tiantian, I’m a little worried about your feelings. After all, this would be a piece of shocking news for anyone..”
