Swoosh.
The old man pulled hard on the fishing rod, and the fishing line swung back. Suddenly, a lively big fish was thrown onto the shore.
The fish, having left the water, struggled desperately.
The old man urgently said, "Boy, quickly catch it!"
Ye Qiu was speechless, then rolled up his sleeves to grab the fish.
But after several attempts, because the fish was too slippery and also too big, Ye Qiu struggled to finally catch it.
He tossed it into the basket, wiped the water off his face, and looked at the old man sitting on a small stool, focused on watching the fish, not acknowledging him, and said speechlessly, "I say..."
"Shh!"
Just as Ye Qiu was about to speak, the old man interrupted him with a hand gesture. Ye Qiu looked at the old man staring at the fish in confusion, shook his head helplessly.
He stood quietly aside watching the old man, who remained silent, just staring at the fish,
After a long while, the old man, perhaps speaking to himself or to Ye Qiu, looked at the fish that was slowly suffocating after leaving the water, and murmured: "A fish out of water has only one outco, which is death."
Ye Qiu looked at the old man, who then raised his head and fixed his gaze on Ye Qiu, seeing a woman approaching from behind Ye Qiu, and said, "Xiu Juan, you’re here!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu turned his head, and when he saw the elegantly dressed, still charming woman slowly approaching him, he was sowhat surprised and thought to himself, "What a classy woman, she must have captivated countless n in her youth."
"Dad."
The woman ca to the old man’s side, greeted him respectfully, and the old man nodded, pointing at Ye Qiu, said, "Look, isn’t he your poor child!"
Upon hearing this, the woman’s pupils shrank, then suddenly looked at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu was also emotionally shaken, confused by the old man’s words, his mind, enhanced by the system, spun rapidly.
At this mont, he faced the woman’s excited expression, filled with disbelief.
"No, wrong."
Ye Qiu knew he had parents, so when he saw the woman’s gaze, he shook his head.
However, the woman, regardless, ca in front of Ye Qiu, then began to unbutton his clothes, trembling with excitent.
"W-what are you doing?" Ye Qiu wanted to stop her.
The old man’s voice this ti was unquestionable: "Let her see."
Ye Qiu glanced at the old man, then nodded, resigning to let the woman unbutton his shirt.
The woman, not caring about anything else, after unbuttoning Ye Qiu’s shirt, looked towards his chest, but when she saw nothing on Ye Qiu’s solid chest muscles, she trembled all over.
"No, impossible..."
The woman found it hard to believe, then reached for Ye Qiu’s pants, which Ye Qiu wanted to stop.
The old man’s sharp voice ca, "Let her see!"
Ye Qiu looked at the old man and saw the old man trembling slightly, his expression showing a trace of urgency.
Ye Qiu reluctantly released the woman’s hand, and she imdiately pulled down Ye Qiu’s pants, then pulled down his undergarnts; Ye Qiu covered up, but she looked at Ye Qiu’s buttocks.
But after looking around, she sat down on the ground in a daze, staring at Ye Qiu, muttering, "How it’s not, how it’s not..."
The old man saw the woman’s state, his body trembled, his expression darkened for a mont, then he sighed softly, shook his head while looking at Ye Qiu who was dressing.
Then he told the woman, "You should leave first."
The woman stood up chanically, took one more look at Ye Qiu, then turned and left reluctantly.
Ye Qiu watched the woman’s back, feeling that she must have a story, and seeing her dazed appearance, he also felt she was quite pitiful.
At this mont, the old man’s voice sounded, "Boy, co over here!"
Ye Qiu turned around and walked towards the old man.
He ca to the old man’s side and greeted respectfully, "Old man."
The old man nodded, looked deeply at Ye Qiu, pointed to the small stool beside him, and said, "Co, sit down..."
Ye Qiu, upon hearing this, sat down on the small stool and looked at the old man.
The old man cast the fishing line back into the river, waiting for the fish to bite, but he was no longer as expectant as before; instead, he stared at the river in front of him, lost in thought.
Ye Qiu stared at the elderly appearance of the old man, feeling that he seed to have suddenly aged several years.
Indeed, the old man was very old, but when Ye Qiu first saw him, there was a vitality in him, as if he was looking forward to sothing, suppressing a strength in his heart, yet now, after the woman left, he seed to have lost sothing in an instant.
"Do you know why I let Xuan’Er bring you to the Ye Family?"
The old man’s voice broke the silence.
Ye Qiu shook his head. Although he had so guesses in his heart, he was still uncertain. Now seeing the old man wanting to explain, he got up and saluted, "Please explain, old man."
The old man waved his hand, indicating Ye Qiu to sit down. After Ye Qiu sat down, he stared at the river in front of him and said, "The Ye Family used to have four children."
"But the third child was unfortunate and got lost when he was very young."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu understood. It seed the Ye Family mistook him for the lost child?
"That child was your age, and we also nad him Ye Qiu."
The old man looked at Ye Qiu, offering a kind smile, and Ye Qiu smiled back, saying, "There are many people with the sa na in the world; maybe it’s just a coincidence."
"Yes, indeed. But coincidentally, your na, blood type, birth date, and a whole series of details are the sa as my lost little grandson."
The old man’s wise eyes, at this mont, looked at Ye Qiu, filled with deep puzzlent, and said, "But why did Xiu Juan say you’re not?"
Ye Qiu scratched his head, "Xiu Juan is... the mother of your lost child, right?"
The old man nodded and said, "That’s right."
"What was she looking at just now?" Ye Qiu asked.
The old man said, "Birthmarks. My little grandson had a birthmark on his chest and buttocks after birth."
"I see!"
Ye Qiu thought for a mont; he really hadn’t noticed. He couldn’t see his buttocks, and he hadn’t paid much attention to whether he had a birthmark on his chest.
But he hadn’t had any skin transplantation surgery, so when the woman looked earlier and didn’t find it, he indeed didn’t have it.
"You should be more reassured, maybe your little grandson is also looking for you." Ye Qiu comforted.
The old man shook his head, staring at Ye Qiu, and said, "The information can’t be wrong. I carefully reviewed your information, and even the DNA matches my little grandson, so I won’t be mistaken."
"Haha, even high technology can make mistakes, who can understand the many mistakes and rights in this world?"
Ye Qiu thought about the system within him, which was also high technology from the Outer Star Realm, wasn’t it?
"Wait..." Ye Qiu suddenly thought of sothing and hurriedly summoned Fle with his mind...
The old man looked at Ye Qiu, shook his head again, and then looked at the fish that had already bitten the hook, yet showed no interest, his eyes filled with deep confusion.
"No, no, absolutely not, but where did it go wrong?"
