Chapter 390 Xia Yichu expresses her suspicions
"It's strange, but I don't think Pei Zongyu looks like Pei Feng at all."
At the Zhou family's dinner table, halfway through the meal, Xia Yichu pretended to be puzzled and said...
"Xiao Chu, you don't know this, do you? From a genetic point of view, a child's physical characteristics are mostly inherited from their parents."
However, there are many special cases, such as gene mutations, which can cause certain physical characteristics of a child to differ significantly from those of their parents. It could also be due to skipped generations of inheritance; perhaps Pei Zongyu resembles a descendant of the Pei family.
After hearing Xia Yichu's words, Zhou Wenbin indeed didn't take the matter to heart and explained it to Xia Yichu without any concern.
"But Uncle Zhou, look at Shi Zhou's nose, it looks like Pei Feng's. His nose is high and straight, with smooth lines, as if it has been carefully sculpted, exuding a heroic spirit. It is exactly the same as Pei Feng's nose."
Pei Zongna's nose wasn't as pretty as Shi Zhou's, but it looked similar to Pei Feng's. Pei Zongyu's nose, however, was completely different from theirs.
His nose was flat and low, with wide nostrils, as if it had been slapped hard, lacking any three-dimensionality. The bridge of his nose was low and almost blended into his cheek, completely lacking any sense of upright beauty.
Moreover, the tip of his nose droops slightly, making the whole nose look clumsy and blunt. Such a nose on his face makes his already unremarkable features appear even more ordinary, and he doesn't resemble Pei Feng at all. I've observed him; he doesn't resemble Feng Yarou either.”
Xia Yichu deliberately described Pei Zongyu's nose in such an unpleasant way, all the while watching Zhou Wenbin's expression. Aside from her slightly dark skin, Pei Zongna's appearance was above average.
Pei Zongyu is of average appearance and not very tall, probably not even 1.7 meters. He looks about the same height as Pei Zongna.
Zhou Wenbin paused for a moment, carefully recalling the appearances of Pei Zongyu and Pei Feng, and it seemed they were indeed as Xia Yichu had described. At this moment, Zhou Shizhou, who had been eating silently, suddenly spoke up.
"Perhaps there are other possibilities."
All eyes turned to him. He paused for a moment, then slowly said, "It's also possible that Pei Zongyu isn't Pei Feng's biological son."
Upon hearing this, the dinner table fell silent instantly. Xia Yichu was secretly delighted; Pei Shizhou was incredibly helpful. Her goal seemed to be almost achieved, while Zhou Wenbin fell into deep thought, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
If that's really the case, that would be great. Regardless, he has to find a way to investigate; what if it really isn't true?
"How is that possible? Someone like Pei Feng could raise someone else's son."
Grandma Zhou was the first to disbelieve it. How could someone as shrewd as Pei Feng raise someone else's son? Although Zhou Wenbin had his doubts, he also felt that Grandma Zhou's words made sense.
Seeing this, Xia Yichu continued, "I heard that Feng Yarou suffered a lot for Pei Feng in the past. If it were me, I would definitely take revenge on Pei Feng if I found an opportunity."
Zhou Wenbin frowned even more deeply after hearing Xia Yichu's words.
"Xiao Chu, are you saying that Feng Yarou might have deliberately made Pei Feng raise someone else's child as revenge against him?"
"Uncle Zhou, it's not impossible. Feng Yarou loved Pei Feng to death back then, but Pei Feng betrayed her. She must harbor resentment in her heart."
Perhaps Feng Yarou snatched Pei Feng back from Shi Zhou's mother simply because she was unwilling to accept it.
Whether she could still treat Pei Feng the same way as before is another question. Personally, I definitely couldn't do it; I'd be lucky if I didn't kill him.
Xia Yichu didn't feel embarrassed saying these things in front of the Zhou family.
"Xiao Chu, I will not let you down."
Pei Shizhou quickly chimed in, stating that unlike Pei Feng, he would only ever love Xia Yichu.
"Xiao Chu, don't worry. A Zhou is as devoted as the Zhou family. He's nothing like Pei Feng. He wouldn't do anything foolish."
"Grandma Zhou, I believe him."
Despite Xia Yichu's seemingly serious demeanor, she was actually quite dismissive. If Pei Shizhou dared to do anything to betray her, she would take advantage of his guilt, first extorting a large sum of money from him, then disappearing from his sight forever.
As long as the money is right, she'll appease herself and not be angry with Pei Shizhou, and she won't kill him, all for the sake of the money.
"Xiao Chu"
Pei Shizhou looked at Xia Yichu with emotion, never expecting her to trust him so much. Grandma Zhou nodded in satisfaction. It was good; although her daughter had missed her beloved, it was good that A-Zhou could be with the person he loved.
Seeing Pei Shizhou gazing at Xia Yichu with such affection, Zhou Wenbin realized his nephew was truly smitten with her. He hoped they could live happily together and avoid any misunderstandings.
"Xiao Chu, no matter what happens to the Pei family in the future, we will not involve you. You don't need to pay attention to anyone from the Pei family. Let A Zhou handle anything."
Grandpa Zhou lived a very happy life. He had two regrets: first, his daughter died in an accident when she was young; and second, neither his son nor his daughter was able to be with the people they loved.
"Yes, whether Pei Zongyu is Pei Feng's son or not is none of our business, as long as he doesn't come looking for A-Zhou. Besides, if Pei Zongyu really isn't Pei Feng's son, then Pei Feng will still come to A-Zhou for help in the future."
Therefore, Pei Zongyu is still better off as Pei Feng's son. Pei Feng should rely on him for his old age and funeral arrangements; please don't bother Azhou.
Xia Yichu agreed with Grandma Zhou, but she didn't think so in her heart. As long as Pei Shizhou was doing well and Pei Zongyu was useless, Pei Feng would inevitably come looking for Pei Shizhou.
"Mom and Dad, Xiao Chu, A Zhou, I have to go out for a bit. I'll be back for dinner tonight," Zhou Wenbin said as he put down his chopsticks after finishing his meal.
"Okay, go ahead and do what you need to do. You don't need to stay home with us all day."
Grandma Zhou sensed that her son had been acting strangely lately. He didn't go out every day and didn't read books. Wherever she went, Zhou Wenbin followed. She couldn't tell if this feeling was good or bad.
"Okay, I got it. Ah Zhou, I'm driving the car away."
"it is good"
Pei Shizhou handed the car keys to Zhou Wenbin, who then took them and left. Although Xia Yichu said that Pei Zongyu was not Pei Feng's son, no one believed her, and he also thought it was unlikely.
However, he was willing to spend time investigating anything that would cause Pei Feng pain. Even if the final investigation revealed that Pei Zongyu was Pei Feng's son, he would make sure Pei Zongyu was not.
To leave a thorn in Pei Feng's heart, it would be best to make them love and hate each other. Zhou Wenbin first prepared some things and even went to the hospital before taking the things and driving to Pei Feng's house.
"Xiaoyu, have you found the medicinal wine yet?"
Pei Feng was in excruciating pain all over his body. Zhou Wenbin, being a doctor, deliberately targeted the most painful spots when he hit him.
"No, don't rush me."
Pei Zongyu said impatiently that he didn't know where the medicinal wine was. Only Pei Feng and Pei Zongyu were at home. Feng Yarou said in the morning that she was going out to buy things and wouldn't be back for lunch.
The father and son didn't even eat lunch yesterday, the same day Pei Feng was fired from the textile factory. Pei Feng also dismissed their housekeeper; Feng Yarou had made an excuse to leave because she didn't want to cook.
In her view, as long as Pei Shizhou, her biological son, was around, the Pei family would never have to worry about money. Therefore, she did not approve of Pei Feng firing the nanny, and this time Pei Feng's attitude was particularly firm.
In her opinion, Pei Feng was overthinking things. At worst, her whole family would go to Pei Shizhou's company and cause a scene. If Pei Shizhou dared to ignore them, she would make sure he couldn't run his company or do business.
