Wei Xingzhou lowered his gaze to Cui Cui, feeling wronged.
The next moment, Wei Xingzhou pulled Cui Cui aside and walked out.
Wei Xingzhou quickly got into the hover car and left.
Lu Wanqing and Cui Cui were forced to stay at the Zhongli family's house. Lu Wanqing was frantic, her mind racing as she tried to make sense of the situation, but...
What exactly was going on?
To avenge Cui Cui?
After much thought, Lu Wanqing's eyes widened in shock: "He knows who Cui Cui's enemy is?"
"No, it's the person who swapped the genes. He knows who it is?" Lu Wanqing asked anxiously.
Zhongli Fei nodded. "Mm."
Lu Wanqing was astonished.
Cui Cui was also stunned, frozen in disbelief.
Meanwhile, Wei Xingzhou rushed back to the Wei family and went straight to Wei Xingyun's home. He found Wei Xingyun and, without hesitation, raised his hand and punched Wei Xingyun hard.
Wei Xingyun was completely taken by surprise and was knocked down by Wei Xingzhou's punch. He was bewildered, then stared at Wei Xingzhou in disbelief.
"Brother? What are you doing!" Wei Xingyun shouted anxiously.
Wei Xingzhou gritted his teeth and delivered a second punch.
After being hit twice, Wei Xingyun stopped pretending. He glared at Wei Xingzhou and punched back.
Wei Xingzhou had indeed found out that he was responsible for the child matter. But so what? Nine years had passed, and the child was already eight years old.
Wei Xingzhou and Wei Xingyun fought for a full half hour. After thirty minutes, Wei Xingyun was bruised and swollen, but he was still smiling.
Wei Xingzhou was incredibly upset. He glared at Wei Xingyun and questioned him, word by word, "Wei Xingyun, what is the meaning of all this? What good does it do you?"
"I just wanted a child. I..." Wei Xingzhou choked up, unable to speak.
Wei Xingyun, however, smiled, as his plan had succeeded. Although there had been a slight hiccup, the final outcome was much better than he had anticipated.
Without Lu Wanqing's genetic contribution, the child cultivated from Wei Xingzhou's and that trash woman's genes was clearly dull-witted. Such a person would be incapable of managing the Wei family when grown, making it much easier for them to seize real control of the Wei family.
People from the Federal Judicial Bureau arrived, confirmed their identities, and immediately took Wei Xingyun away.
Other members of the Wei family also arrived, especially Wei Xingyun's parents, who rushed over. Seeing their son being taken away by judicial officers, they panicked and begged Wei Xingzhou to let their son go, but Wei Xingzhou didn't even spare them a glance and turned to leave.
As he turned, Wei Xingzhou also saw his own parents, who had rushed over after receiving the news. Their eyes met, and no one spoke.
Wei Xingzhou was silent for a moment, then walked past his parents, intending to leave.
"Xingzhou!" Suddenly, his father grabbed his hand.
Wei Liang looked at his son and said cautiously, "Zhouzhou, no matter what, the child has grown up safely. Nothing bad happened. Yunyun is your brother, after all. Why don't we just let this matter go?"
With the Wei family's influence, the investigation wouldn't take long. Wei Xingzhou's parents had already discovered the truth, but the one who had tampered with things was their own child. They couldn't bear it...
Wei Xingzhou looked at his father, then at his mother. After a long pause, he sneered, "It cannot be let go."
Wei Liang: "..."
"Xingzhou, Xingzhou didn't mean to. He was young and ignorant back then, which is why he did such a thing. He's grown up now, he knows he was wrong, and he knows what he should and shouldn't do."
"We'll make him apologize to you, so please don't report him to the police, okay? After all, Xingyun is your brother. If he's arrested, the Wei family's reputation will also be affected."
Wei Xingyun's mother also rushed over, grabbing Wei Xingzhou's hand and pleading anxiously.
Wei Xingzhou looked at his aunt. He had once considered her like family, but now he extended his other hand and slowly, bit by bit, pulled away her hand.
"He's only a year younger than me," Wei Xingzhou said coldly.
Having said that, Wei Xingzhou no longer paid attention to the Wei family members. He would upload all the evidence to the court, and Wei Xingyun would face the full legal consequences.
Wei Xingzhou left the Wei family and took a hover car to the Zhongli family's residence.
The distance between the two families was not short. Even by hover car, it took almost two hours to arrive. Only after returning did Wei Xingzhou slightly relax, but thinking of Cui Cui, he still felt very sad.
The residents of the Seventh Legion's military housing district knew Wei Xingzhou. Those who saw him return immediately rushed to report to Zhongli Feiyu's home.
At Zhongli Feiyu's house, Lu Wanqing and Cui Cui heard that Wei Xingzhou had returned and quickly ran out.
Cui Cui saw Wei Xingzhou and immediately ran up, taking his hand.
Wei Xingzhou's hand was held by his obedient daughter. He looked down at her, their eyes meeting, and he inexplicably felt a surge of grievance.
Cui Cui looked at her father, her eyes unconsciously turning red. "Wei Xingzhou, are you an idiot?"
Wei Xingzhou could no longer hold back his tears. He squatted down, hugged Cui Cui tightly, and cried, "Yes, Dad is an idiot. Dad didn't protect your genes well. If Dad had been more careful back then, Cui Cui would have been Dad's biological daughter, boohoo."
Cui Cui's tears also fell, but she didn't sob.
Cui Cui gently raised her head, looked at Wei Xingzhou, and said, "Wei Xingzhou, you really are so stupid. If your genes hadn't been swapped by someone else, maybe the baby cultivated wouldn't have been me, and then there wouldn't be a child like me in this world."
Wei Xingzhou was stunned. Tears still welled in his eyes, but his mind finally caught up.
Right...
Different genes meant different children. If the genes hadn't been swapped, would the cultivated baby still be Cui Cui?
If the baby wasn't Cui Cui...
Wei Xingzhou shook his head vigorously at the thought. No, no. If the baby wasn't the cute Cui Cui, the sky would fall. Even if the cultivated child was biological, it wouldn't do!
Thinking this, Wei Xingzhou quickly hugged Cui Cui and kissed her a few more times. He said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, fortunately, fortunately, their genes were swapped. If they hadn't been swapped, my precious Cui Cui would be gone. The thought is terrifying."
Upon hearing Wei Xingzhou's words, Cui Cui's long-suppressed emotions finally surfaced. The corners of her mouth curved upwards uncontrollably, a happy smile.
