Capítulo 879: Chapter 879: Could There Be a Mistake?
For a father, this is the only wish he can have for now.
However, Huo Shiqian fell silent for a mont, and said, “I’m sorry.”
Ou Zhenting felt a slight twinge in his heart, but he could only sigh, “Then… let’s wait for the child to co back from Ling County and talk about it then.”
Then, Ou Zhenting couldn’t help but look towards the study door.
The door of the study was tightly closed at this mont, as if completely cutting off communication between inside and outside.
“Huo Shiqian, this child, I’ll leave him to you for now.” Finally, Ou Zhenting suddenly said solemnly to Huo Shiqian with earnestness.
Upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian stood up and seriously faced Ou Zhenting, “Rest assured, Uncle, I will always protect Chuyi.”
Seeing Huo Shiqian speak sincerely, Ou Zhenting nodded, “That’s good, that’s good…”
Then the scene fell into silence.
Ou Zhenting knew he should say goodbye and leave, but looking at the study door… he felt a bit reluctant.
“Sigh…” No matter how reluctant he was, since the child didn’t want to, he could only leave, “Then, young man of the Huo Family, we shall take our leave now.”
Huo Shiqian nodded, “I’ll see Uncle off.”
After saying that, Huo Shiqian escorted Ou Zhenting and Ou Jun out of the Bao Mansion.
The distance from the living room through the courtyard to the front door wasn’t very long, yet Ou Zhenting and Ou Jun kept looking back every few steps, taking quite a while to leave.
No matter how slow, the road always cos to an end.
As they crossed the threshold, Ou Zhenting sighed deeply and stepped forward to leave.
At that mont, Ou Jun suddenly said, “Huo Shiqian, may I go with you to Ling County?”
“You want to go?” Surprised by what he heard, Huo Shiqian furrowed his brows slightly in thought before saying, “I’ll ask Chuyi.”
“Thank you!” Ou Jun imdiately expressed his gratitude.
“No need to be so polite.” Huo Shiqian waved his hand slightly, “You go back first; I’ll ask Chuyi and reply to you by phone.”
“Thank you!” In the end, that’s all Ou Jun could say.
After seeing off Ou Zhenting and his son, Huo Shiqian returned to his room.
By then, Xia Chuyi had already stepped out of the room.
“Have they… already left?” Xia Chuyi asked, looking sowhat complexly towards the direction of the door.
Hearing this, Huo Shiqian approached and embraced her, “Yes, they’ve left.”
“I always feel a bit sorry for them,” Xia Chuyi said apologetically, unable to help it as she gazed at the door.
At this mont, she recalled everything she had heard about the Ou Family and everything she had seen about them.
The Ou Family had been searching for a child, ‘Ou Jiao,’ for many years, having spent imasurable effort.
“They have been waiting for ‘Ou Jiao’ for a long ti,” Xia Chuyi sighed slightly.
“You’re overthinking it.” However, hearing her words, her side’s Huo Shiqian didn’t agree, “In this matter, many people are at fault, but you’re not at fault at all.”
Xia Chuyi understood his aning, but she just couldn’t shake the guilt in her heart.
“Brother Shiqian, do you think it’s possible that the DNA test was wrong?” Xia Chuyi, filled with complex emotions, suddenly couldn’t help but look at Huo Shiqian and blurted out, “Is it possible that I’m not Ou Jiao? That they made a mistake?”
A flash of helplessness and heartache passed through Huo Shiqian’s eyes.
And in his eyes, she saw her own reflected confused expression.
