Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 718 An Awkward Situation (2)

When Zhao Shunchang opened the door, all he saw was darkness. Zhao Yifei had been lost in his thoughts previously, so he did not notice that the sky had gotten dark. He did not even turn on any lamps.

The moment the lamp was turned on, a blinding light shone on the bulging ball on the bed, illuminating the entire room. However, it did not shine on the hearts of the two people in the room!

Zhao Shunchang hesitated for a moment, but he still walked in the direction of Zhao Yifei.

Zhao Yifei lay on the bed motionlessly, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep. However, he knew just how close his heart was to jumping out of his chest.

He was not mentally prepared to face this man who was no longer considered his father. He had thought of this possibility countless times, but he had never thought of the current situation.

Zhao Shunchang stood by the bed for a long time, as if he was considering whether to wake Zhao Yifei up.

Time passed by second by second. It had only been a few minutes, but Zhao Yifei felt as if a century had passed.

Just as Zhao Yifei’s heart was filled with anticipation, feeling that Zhao Shunchang still had some feelings for him and was reluctant to wake him up from his sleep, Zhao Shunchang suddenly moved. He reached out and lifted the blanket. He patted Zhao Yifei’s shoulder.

Zhao Yifei’s heart skipped a beat. If Zhao Shunchang was reluctant to wake him up and quietly left, then it meant that Zhao Shunchang still cared about him in his heart.

But if he lifted the blanket right away like this, then it meant that… Zhao Shunchang probably…

Zhao Yifei’s heart was already in turmoil, but he did not show it on his face. He pretended to be in a daze as if he had just woken up from his sleep and reached out to rub his eyes.

After a long while, it was as if he had suddenly found Zhao Shunchang by the bed. He said in surprise, “Dad, you’re back?”

Unexpectedly, this “Dad” had stabbed the sore spot in Zhao Shunchang’s heart. Zhao Shunchang’s face darkened slightly as he looked at Zhao Yifei on the bed, who was dressed neatly and had a guilty and uneasy look on his face.

Zhao Shunchang, who had suffered countless shocks in just a short day, displayed a rare bit of intelligence. His eyes narrowed slightly as he said in a low voice, “You already know about your mother’s matter and your matter, right?”

What did he mean by what happened to my mother and me? Was this person referring to the fact that he was not a child of the Zhao family and that he was not his own son? Was he planning to settle the score with him?

Zhao Yifei’s mind went through a thousand twists and turns, but on the surface, he still maintained a pitiful look of grievance and uneasiness. He looked like a pitiful child who had been abandoned by his parents. “I… I know everything.”

Of course, he had been listening and watching from the side. How could he not know?

Unfortunately, Zhao Shunchang was used to seeing him being arrogant and domineering at home. Now that he saw him being so meek, he was not going to fall for this act. “Since you know everything, then you should pack up and get ready.”

Zhao Shunchang’s words were too calm, so much so that Zhao Yifei thought that he had misunderstood for a moment. “Wh… What do you mean, pack up and get ready?”

Zhao Shunchang looked at his son, whom he had raised for more than twenty years. He sighed and said slowly, “You’ve seen the paternity test. You’re not my child. Your mother is now… I’m going to get someone to send you back to the Sun Family First. Although you’re not my child, you’re of the Sun family’s bloodline. I’m sure they’ll be happy to take you in. In the future, you… take care of yourself.”

Zhao Yifei’s entire body trembled. He stared at Zhao Shunchang in disbelief. “Dad, don’t you want me anymore?”

After all, he was a child who had been raised for many years. When Zhao Shunchang saw him like this, he couldn’t help but look away.

When Zhao Yifei saw this, he hurriedly climbed down from the bed. He grabbed Zhao Shunchang’s thigh and said, “Dad, you can’t treat me like this. As the saying goes, it’s better to raise a child than to be close to a child. Although… Although I’m not a child of the Zhao family or your child, we’ve been father and son for so many years. Now, just because of a paternity test, you’re going to abandon me so cruelly?”.

Zhao Shunchang’s fingertips trembled for a moment, and the light in his eyes that were originally not very firm, to begin with, began to quiver.

Zhao Yifei knew that he had already wavered. He hurriedly continued, “I know… I know that mom has done a lot of things that have disappointed and angered you, but… but I really didn’t know about those things beforehand. If it wasn’t for today… Today at grandfather’s place… I simply couldn’t imagine… in this matter, you are indeed the victim, but am I not one too? If I had a choice, why would I be willing to be such a… stain on the family? And yet I have to bear the consequences of her actions. Don’t you think it’s unfair?”

Zhao Shunchang opened his mouth. The line of defense that he had worked so hard to build in his heart had almost collapsed under Zhao Yifei’s words.

“Yifei, I…” A hint of panic appeared on Zhao Shunchang’s face. He hurriedly lowered his head to look at Zhao Yifei’s face.

But because of this… the former master’s last words suddenly rang in Zhao Shunchang’s mind. “Shunchang, think carefully. You’ve already raised that boy for more than 20 years for no reason. There’s no need to continue being a sucker.”

While Zhao Shunchang was wavering, Zhao Yifei thought to himself that there was a chance. His eyes lit up and he was about to continue working hard. However, Zhao Shunchang suddenly said, “I know what you’re saying, but you’re not a child of our Zhao family. It’s better for you to go back to your mother’s family. You don’t have to go to the Zhao group anymore. Your grandfather has just informed the human resource department and will find another person to take your place. Your office shouldn’t have anything particularly important, right? If there is, you can also go over and pack up in the next two days and take it with you.”

After saying that, Zhao Shunchang was ready to turn around and leave. Zhao Yifei didn’t have time to think. He suddenly tightened his grip on Zhao Shunchang and said loudly, “Dad, dad, don’t go, don’t go.”

Zhao Shunchang’s footsteps suddenly stopped. Seeing this, Zhao Yifei raised his head in anticipation. However, what he received was a sentence from Zhao Shunchang, “In the future, Don’t call me dad anymore.”

The smile on Zhao Yifei’s face suddenly froze. His eyes were wide open as he stared at Zhao Shunchang in disbelief.

When he saw that Zhao Shunchang’s expression was calm and resolute, there was no turning back. Zhao Yifei’s face turned green and white. After a few changes… finally, he could not help but ask coldly, “Are you really that heartless?”

Zhao Shunchang was not particularly comfortable being stared at by Zhao Yifei’s somewhat sinister gaze. When he recalled that he had not had much status in this family for the past few years, and that he had been trampled under the feet of the wife and son pair, he felt a slight anger in his heart, it was rare for him to be so stubborn as to say, “It’s not that I’m heartless, it’s that the you and your mother have gone too far.”
