Chapter 185 Recognizing Relatives Outside the Delivery Room

"Oh!"

The delivery room door was slammed shut, and Qin Song completely disappeared from Pei Xingzhi's sight.

"Pfft!"

Pei Xingzhi was instantly exhausted and collapsed to his knees in a sorry state.

"elder brother!!"

Pei Lingxuan rushed forward, crying, trying to pull Pei Xingzhi up from the ground, but Pei Xingzhi shook off her hand.

"Don't touch me..." He knelt weakly at the door of the delivery room, all his energy drained by an emotion called "fear," leaving him pale and frail.

His usually straight spine bent heavily at this moment, as if it could no longer withstand any wind or rain, yet it refused to fall completely, still stubbornly guarding something.

“Brother…” Pei Lingxuan squatted down beside him, wiping away her tears, and said to him, “Get up and wait.”

"..." Pei Xingzhi really didn't have the strength to speak, so he could only shake his head weakly to express his refusal.

“Pei Xingzhi.” Jiang Mian walked to his side, frowning as she advised him, “Qin Song will definitely be alright. Can you get up first? Your left foot is so swollen it’s unbearable to look at. You must go see a doctor immediately.”

"..."

Pei Xingzhi remained silent, only shaking his head repeatedly.

Jiang Mian bent down: "Qin Song loves you very much. Just to put her mind at ease, can you get up and take care of the wound on your foot first?"

"..."

Pei Xingzhi lost patience with her and this time stopped even shaking his head.

Jiang Mian was anxious and subconsciously wanted to say a few more words of advice to him, but Lin Jiahe suddenly reached out and stopped her.

"Stop trying to persuade him." Lin Jiahe walked over and stood behind Pei Xingzhi, saying softly, "No one can persuade him until Qin Song comes out safely. Let him kneel down; consider it a prayer for Qin Song."

"Then I want to pray too!" Pei Lingxuan wiped away her tears, bent her knees, and knelt down directly next to Pei Xingzhi.

"Please, Bodhisattva! Please, Buddha! Bless my sister-in-law with a safe delivery!"

Pei Lingxuan closed her eyes tightly and clasped her hands together in devout prayer.

"Please, Bodhisattva, please, Buddha, bless my sister-in-law with a safe delivery..."

"Please, Bodhisattva, please, Buddha, bless my sister-in-law with a safe delivery..."

"Sigh..." Jiang Mian sighed, and didn't say another word.

She straightened up, facing the delivery room, and closed her eyes to silently pray for Qin Song.

Duan Jialu stood behind her and, seeing this, sincerely did as she was told.

……

A sudden silence fell outside the delivery room, broken only by the deafening sound of devout prayers.

Has anyone notified Aunt Pei?

After a while, Lin Jiahe suddenly asked.

Shen Yan replied, "I've notified her. Pei Lingxuan called Aunt Pei a while ago, and she should be on her way now."

"Mm." Lin Jiahe nodded, then remained silent.

"Zhaozhao!!"

"My Zhaozhao!!"

"My sister! Where's my sister?!"

A deafening shout suddenly rang out in the corridor behind them. Jiang Mian and the others turned around at the same time and saw Song Yihuan and Xie Mingyi helping the two elderly people from the Xie family stumble and run towards the door of the delivery room.

"Huanhuan?"

Duan Jialu was surprised to see them, so she quickly stepped forward to help support the two agitated elderly people.

"Why are you here?" she asked in surprise. "Where's Zhao Zhao?" Bai Ruiying grabbed her hand, staring at her intently. "Where's my Zhao Zhao? Where did my Zhao Zhao go?"

"...Huh?" Duan Jialu didn't understand what she was saying. "Auntie, what Zhaozhao?"

"Zhao Zhao is Qin Song!" Xie Mingyi didn't have time to explain slowly, so he simply shouted out this fact that no one believed.

"Zhao Zhao is Qin Song, and Qin Song is my sister! Where is my sister? Has she gone into the delivery room?"

"They just went in half an hour ago." Jiang Mian strode over, and seeing the Xie family's anxious and excited expressions, he vaguely guessed what was going on.

"What do you mean by 'Zhaozhao is Qin Song'?" she asked tentatively. "You..."

"We are Qin Song's family!!" Xie Jiangshan was in tears, his old body trembling and swaying like a leaf in the wind as he sobbed.

"Qin Song is the biological daughter we've been searching for for five years. She's not an unwanted child; she's my Zhaozhao!"

"……What?!"

Everyone outside the delivery room was stunned by these words.

"What did you say?" Pei Xingzhi suddenly opened his eyes, dragged his leg, which was swollen to purple, and got up from the ground, limping towards Xie Jiangshan.

"Watch out!!" Lin Jiahe reached out to support him and brought him in front of Xie Jiangshan.

"Say it again." He stared intently at Xie Jiangshan, his eyes wide, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Say it again, who is Qin Song to you?"

“Child…” Xie Jiangshan raised a hand, trembling as he grasped Pei Xingzhi’s wrist, and said slowly but firmly, “Qin Song is my child, she is the child I lost more than twenty years ago!”

"Really?" Duan Jialu asked in disbelief. "Pei Dahua, is she really your child?"

“Really!” Song Yihuan roughly ripped open her bag and took out the paternity test report.

"I stole Qin Song's hair to do a paternity test, and the results showed that she is indeed the daughter of the Xie family!"

"She is Xie Zhaoyuan, the Xie family's lost Xie Zhaoyuan for over twenty years!!"

Pei Xingzhi snatched the thin paternity test report and frantically searched for the line of text that would determine Qin Song's fate.

"Here it is!" Lin Jiahe spotted the words immediately and quickly pointed them out to Pei Xingzhi.

Pei Xingzhi looked up and saw only a line of striking characters—

I support Xie Jiangshan as Qin Song's biological father.

"..."

It was as if a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed through Pei Xingzhi's mind, his world went white for a moment, and then he swayed and fell.

“Xiao Song…” The paternity test report slipped from his hand. He looked up in disbelief at the pitiful old couple in front of him.

"Xiao Song, is your child..."

"Yes!" Xie Jiangshan and Bai Ruiying affirmed in unison.

"Xiao Song is my sister!" Xie Mingyi exclaimed, his eyes reddening, tears and laughter mingling on his face. "She's my own sister!!"

"..." Pei Xingzhi let out a heavy sigh, unsure whether he was happy or angry.

He stared with bloodshot eyes at each of the four members of the Xie family, then suddenly raised his hand to cover his face and knelt down helplessly.

"Brother-in-law!"

Xie Mingyi had already changed his form of address and quickly squatted down to put his arm around Pei Xingzhi's shoulder.

“Child.” Xie Jiangshan squatted down, gently stroking Pei Xingzhi’s head with one hand and placing the other on his shoulder, his eyes filled with heartache and gratitude.

"My child, thank you for loving my Zhaozhao. Thank you so much!"

"Son-in-law," Bai Ruiying also changed her form of address, "we are all family, waiting together for Zhaozhao to come out. Zhaozhao will definitely be safe."

"...Aaaaaah!!!"

Their response was Pei Xingzhi's surging and cathartic cries.
