Chapter 414 Relieved
"Mr. Xu, I just want to ask today, did you know that my aunt was pregnant when she left the imperial capital?"
This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Xu Bowen. The cup he was holding shook suddenly, and the water and the cup fell to the ground, making his knees wet.
"What did you say?"
From Xu Bowen's reaction, Lin Xi could see that he was shocked by the news, and his facial expression was not fake.
She whispered: "My aunt died in childbirth. She and her child died in the mountains together."
"It's impossible, it's impossible."
Xu Bowen stood up suddenly, "She never told me. She left me a letter and left without mentioning anything about the child."
"My aunt died alone in the mountains. She didn't dare to tell my grandparents, but she didn't expect to leave with the child. She only told my mother about the pregnancy, but my mother happened to be giving birth to me at the time, so she didn't I didn’t see her for the last time.”
Lin Xi couldn't help but shed tears as she spoke. Although there was an element of lying, a large part of it should be the truth after all.
Xu Bowen's calmness no longer existed, and his whole person was trembling.
"Ms. Lin, I can tell you that I have never forgotten her. She left so decisively and didn't give me any time at all. I was too busy at the time and had no news from her for a long time. Later, I became angry and thought We’ll look for you when you’re done.”
"Mr. Xu, you have been angry for a really long time. You have been angry for a year. When your anger subsides, you will be separated from yin and yang."
Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief, "After knowing your identity, I wanted to ask. Now that I understand, the knot in my heart is relieved. Thank you!"
"Your thank you is a slap in my face!"
Xu Bowen raised his hand tremblingly, "Yi Ze, give me a cigarette."
Lin Xi looked at his trembling hands. They were slender and fair, with no trace of smoke at all. He was obviously not a regular smoker.
Shen Yi looked at Lin Xi, then took out a cigarette and handed it to Xu Bowen.
"Uncle Xu, everything is over. Auntie's choice to leave must have been out of necessity."
Xu Bowen took the cigarette without saying a word. After taking a silent puff, he coughed suddenly.
Just when he lowered his head and coughed, Lin Xi saw a drop of crystal.
"You guys go back first, I'll stay for a while."
Lin Xi was relieved now. Xu Bowen didn't know, which meant that her scumbag father still had some conscience.
Tang Jingxian saw the scene when the two of them came out of the teahouse, and she knew the plainclothes guards on both sides of the teahouse.
Speaking of official business, Xu Bowen walked out, and Shen Yize and Lin Xi followed, which made her cautious.
On the way back, Shen Yi held Lin Xi's hand and held her in his arms.
Lin Xi leaned on his shoulder, feeling sad but finally relieved.
"Shen Yize, can we not be angry in the future?"
"I will definitely not be angry with you. I will listen to whatever you say."
Shen Yi kissed Lin Xi's forehead tenderly and hugged him tighter.
"Thank you for giving me this opportunity to ask the truth personally."
Lin Xi said and crawled into his arms.
When the two of them were approaching Fenglinwan, Lin Xi's phone rang.
Seeing Lan Wanying's call, Lin Xi sat up straight and answered it.
"Sister Lan."
"Lin Xi, Zhuo Xuan is about to give birth and has been sent to the hospital now."
The sudden good news made Lin Xi excited, "Didn't it say how many days are left before the due date?"
"How do I know this? I have never given birth to a child. Maybe Ning Ning is too excited about getting engaged tonight."
"Well, I'll go to the hospital right away."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xi told Xiaopeng to go to the hospital, and excitedly hugged Shen Yize and said, "Zhuoxuan's baby is about to be born."
Shen Yi hugged her and smiled, but felt very uncomfortable in his heart. If their child was still there, he would be born soon.
But at this time, he didn't want to make Lin Xi sad, so he hugged her tenderly and laughed with her.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhao Jinyan and Sun Miaomiao were already waiting outside.
Inside were all the Lu family members, all of them looking forward to but nervous. This battle was like a battle. The medical staff shook their heads as they watched. Not only could they not be driven away, but more and more people were coming.
Seeing Lu Chen walking nervously in front of the delivery room, Shen Yi and Zhao Jinyan looked at each other and smiled.
A person who is always calm has never seen him so nervous. He is probably more nervous than when he points a gun at a gangster.
Lan Wanying and Pei Yan followed closely, "How's it going?"
"Not out yet."
"I heard that giving birth is not that fast. When my cousin gave birth, she gave birth to a baby all day and all night."
Sun Miaomiao's words made everyone worried. Do so many people have to wait here all day and night?
Shen Yi was afraid that Lin Xi would be tired, so he suggested: "It's not good for us to have so many people gathered here, and it will also affect the movement of nurses. Why don't we go sit in the cafe next to it. We don't know how long it will take."
A few people think it makes sense.
After sitting down in the coffee shop, Pei Yan was the first to speak, "Mr. Shen, I heard that you are also working on biotechnology-related projects. I wonder if there are any opportunities for cooperation?"
Lan Wanying glared at him after hearing this, "It's the nature of a businessman to sit down and talk business."
Shen Yi smiled and said: "Mr. Pei, you are well-informed. It is true, but it has just started."
"That's just right. I just invested in a research center and it hasn't been listed yet. If there are any opportunities for cooperation, we can have a good chat in private."
Pei was originally in the field of medical equipment and medicine, and he had a better foundation than them in all aspects. However, Shen Yi was engaged in new technology, and Pei Yan should have criticized him for this.
Shen Yi heard him talk about the research center and was secretly happy that it hadn't been listed yet. Isn't this just like someone giving you a cup when you want to drink tea, and someone giving you a pillow when you want to sleep?
"Mr. Pei, there must be opportunities. You can come to our company tomorrow and we can have a good chat."
"Hey, no, can you take me with you?"
Zhao Jinyan also wanted to invest in projects recently, but there was no suitable opportunity.
"Does your family seem to have nothing to do with us?"
Their main business is a supermarket. In the past two years, he has also invested in some game companies, but few in industrial and high-tech industries.
Zhao Jinyan was not happy to hear this, "Business has nothing to do with it, and money has nothing to do with it. Does it mean that money has a surname?"
Pei Yan and Shen Yize looked at each other and said in unison: "Mr. Zhao, what you said makes sense."
A few people sat here until the cafe closed, but there was no news at all from the hospital.
When they returned to the hospital, they saw Lu Chen still lingering at the door of the delivery room. They originally wanted to tell him to go back first, but there were so many people here and they couldn't help.
But before she could reach Lu Chen, the door to the delivery room opened.
"Congratulations to Mr. Lu. Mother and son are safe. The fat boy weighs seven pounds and six taels."
This news undoubtedly inspired everyone, and Lu Chen was so excited that he beat the wall.
Zhao Jinyan looked at his stupid look and said with a smile: "That guy was so happy that he smashed the wall with his fist."
