Xu Jie’s tears rolled down again.

“I don’t know if that counts as abandonment. Xiaorou and I broke up normally, and when we did, I was unaware that Xiaorou was pregnant. I used to be a criminal police officer.

“I met Xiaorou while carrying out a mission. At that time, this land was home to only a few small factories, nothing like the scale it is today.

“Back then, there was a Silk Reeling Factory, and Xiaorou was the purchaser for the factory. She was a very brave girl. When we were pursuing someone here, she was fearless and even helped us catch the person.

“Because of Xiaorou’s help, I was even commended by my team. Afterward, fearing retaliation against her, I often escorted her home after work. Gradually, we developed feelings for each other.

“We spent a very beautiful time together. Soon after, we got engaged, and I bought a house near the Silk Reeling Factory, where Xiaorou and I moved in together. Right here, where we’re standing, was once the home I shared with Xiaorou.

“We both thought we could continue living well, especially since our wedding date was set and getting closer. We both loved children and never thought about taking contraceptive measures.

“But as my work became increasingly busy, and Xiaorou’s mother fell ill, her temper became very bad. Xiaorou was also under a lot of pressure during that time. We often argued over trivial things.

“The arguing escalated, and in the end, we broke up. It was Xiaorou who suggested it first. She said spending some time apart would be good for both of us, that she would move out; I left the keys to the house with her.

“I was in a lot of pain during that time, and just when the department had a vacancy, I transferred from the criminal investigation squad to the anti-drug squad. As a new face, the higher-ups sent me to work undercover. Before the operation began, I went to see Xiaorou; I told her I had to go away for a while, but I couldn’t tell her what I was going to do.

“The mission was far more difficult than I had imagined. I thought I would be back within a year at most. But unexpectedly, when I returned, my body had become what it is now.

“The Silk Reeling Factory had been demolished, and even the house I bought here was torn down, replaced by new factory buildings. Just the explosion injury alone had me laid up in the hospital for nearly two years. By the time I got out, my father had already passed away from illness. I asked people to look for Xiaorou, but all I found was her death certificate.

“There was no more news. I thought our separation was only temporary, but I never anticipated that it would be for a lifetime. The department arranged other clerical work for me. But with this face of mine, who wouldn’t be scared? I chose not to stay in the department and instead came back here, thinking perhaps one day Xiaorou would come to me in my dreams, right here in our house, on this very land.

“Child, I’m sorry. If I had known about your existence, I would never have agreed to break up with Xiaorou. I was just too young then, too impulsive.”

Wenyan truly hadn’t expected the truth of the past to be like this.

No wonder, back at the police station, Wenyan had seen top-ranking officials shaking hands with him.

Originally, Wenyan had come with the intention of seeking justice for Wenrou.

But if Xu Jie wasn’t lying, they had broken up normally, and Wenyan really didn’t know how to condemn him.

After all, there isn’t a couple or a husband and wife in the world who don’t argue; such petty squabbles are a part of life.

And it turns out that his disappearance wasn’t due to being scum, but because he was on a mission; he is a hero of the people.

For the mission, he himself became what he is now, which is undoubtedly a tremendous sacrifice, not something a normal person could endure.

What is she to do now!

Wenyan turned around, removed her sunglasses, and instinctively looked to her two older brothers for help.

Jingxiu understood and gently patted her arm, then said to Xu Jie.

“We will verify everything you’ve told us, and I hope you’re not lying to us. Additionally, if it’s convenient for you, we would like you to cooperate by providing a biological sample, such as hair, which we need to verify on the spot,” Jingxiu said.

“I have no objections,” Xu Jie responded, voluntarily taking off his hat, “You do it; I won’t interfere.”

“Thank you for your cooperation.” Jingxiu signaled Jingchuan with a glance, and Jingchuan immediately stepped forward to pluck a few hairs from Xu Jie.

Jingxiu then added, “One more thing, we are taking your biological sample to avoid being misled by incorrect data. Even if the results prove a parent-child relationship between you two, it doesn’t mean that Wenyan will necessarily acknowledge you as family.”
