After breakfast, the father and son left the house together and drove to the hospital.

Han Luofan drove and Han Bing sat on the side. On the way to the hospital, Han Luofan tried to find some easy topics to talk to Han Bing about.

He looked sideways at his father and suddenly said, “When I was young, I thought you were especially tall.”

Han Bing tilted his head and looked at him. He said rationally, “Because you’re short. You had to look up at me.”

“Yes.” Han Luofan smiled and said, “I’m taller than you now.”

Han Bing snorted and said, “That’s because your genes are good.”

“Of course.”

The morning traffic was busy. Those who were at work and going to school rushed over together. There were countless cars on the road. When they met a red light, all the cars stopped. Han Luofan and others were still one or two hundred meters away from the traffic light intersection. Han Luofan said, “It’s quite jammed.”

Han Bing nodded.

Han Luofan complained, “When you were the provincial party secretary, why didn’t you fix this path?”

Han Bing looked at him unhappily and said, “When I came here to be the provincial party secretary, the city planning in Junyang City had already been developed. How can this road be expanded any further? By pushing down the commercial buildings on both sides of the road?” Han Bing looked at Han Luofan like he was looking at a retard.

Han Luofan rolled his eyes.

Han Bing snorted before saying, “Cut the crap. What exactly are you trying to say?”

Han Luofan’s expression turned serious and he said in a deep voice, “No matter the outcome, it won’t be bad.” Han Luofan tilted his head and stared at the side of Han Bing’s face. He said, “You’re my father and I’m your son. This is an unchanged fact.”

“So, if the test results are not satisfactory, please don’t be too sad.”

Han Bing’s lips quivered.

Han Luofan said, “I’m very worried about you.”

Han Bing’s expression changed slightly. He wanted to say something to Han Luofan. For example: No matter the outcome, no matter if you are Ji Yue’s child or Yuan Ting’s child, I will love you.

Han Bing composed himself and was about to say something mushy when he said, “Xiao Fan, no matter…” Han Bing’s voice was quite soft. He felt embarrassed. He had just said four words when he heard Han Luofan scold loudly, “It’s finally the green light. Damn it, I’ve waited for so long.”

Han Bing was speechless.

The car passed through the traffic lights and the crowd finally dissipated.

Han Luofan asked Han Bing, “Dad, did you have something to say to me just now?”

Han Bing’s face darkened as he said expressionlessly, “No.” He had finally mustered his courage and planned to confess his feelings, but he was scolded by his son.

Finally, they arrived at the hospital.

The father and son went straight to the judicial review center.

They sat in the corridor and realized that there were others on the iron chairs in the corridor. Most of them were young couples, and some even carried babies who were crying for food. The father and son sat there, looking out of place.

Han Bing said emotionally, “An official isn’t omnipotent. In my opinion, the country should have a law for love and marriage. Those who stole someone’s partner, two-timers, cheaters, people who drug others or scammers who robbed their family’s assets…” Han Bingluo listed rows of despicable actions. In the end, he said,” They should all be arrested and imprisoned. ”

If that was the case, Yuan Ting would have gone to jail for ruining their relationship back then.

Han Bing sighed. “Unfortunately, I’m not omnipotent.”

When Han Luofan heard this, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Now, we advocate freedom in love.”

“Sigh…” Han Bing replied. “Just because you’re in love and free doesn’t mean that you’re in love. Liking someone should be a beautiful thing, not something without a bottom line.” He looked at the baby in the arms of the young people on the left and said to Han Luofan, “If you dare to bring your wife and children here in the future…”

Han Luofan asked, “What will happen?”

Han Bing only smiled.

However, that laughter made Han Luofan’s back turn cold.

The father and son lowered their heads and chatted non-stop. Han Bing was not a talkative person. Today, he had become a chatterbox for the first time. At the end of the day, he was just nervous. Han Luofan knew his father too well, so he accompanied him.

After the two of them expressed different opinions about young people’s views on love back then, they finally met the doctor.

The doctor was a woman who looked quite mighty. She had a mole on her chin and looked especially like the female version of Chairman Mao. (Translator’s note: Chairman Mao was the former president of China)

“Mr. Han and Han Luofan, right?”

The female doctor looked at Han Luofan, but she could not help but glance at Han Bing. She felt that this old man looked a little familiar, but she could not remember where she had seen him before. Han Luofan nodded and said, “Yes.”

“Follow me to verify your identity.”

After they verified their identities, the doctor handed the report to him.

Neither Han Luofan nor Han Bing looked at the test results. Han Luofan asked the doctor directly, “Is Yuan Ting my mother?”

The doctor was used to such foul things, so her attitude was quite cold.

She shook her head and said, “No, you two are not mother and son.”

Upon hearing this, Han Luofan was stunned, and Han Bing was a little excited.

Only then did Han Bing snatch the report from Han Luofan’s hand and look at it. After confirming that the results were right, Han Bing’s hand that was holding the report trembled. For a moment, he was both sad and happy. He did not have any reaction and walked out with the report.

Han Luofan came back to his senses and quickly chased his father out of the hospital.

After returning to the car, Han Luofan hesitated and did not know what to say. At this moment, Han Bing, who was beside him, pinched the report and cried. His cries were very suppressed, and it made Han Luofan feel especially terrible.

Han Luofan thought of his father’s life and sighed.

He patted Han Bing’s trembling back and persuaded, “Dad, stop crying. Isn’t this a good outcome?”

Han Bing shook his head and did not look up.

Han Luofan lowered his head and saw Han Bing’s tears falling onto his legs. His black pants darkened. At this moment, Han Bing choked and said, “I was really drunk. How could I possibly get hard!”

“Yuan Ting, that woman, she made us suffer!”

“She’s really vicious. You’re clearly Xiao Yue and my son, but she deliberately made me mistake you for her child…” Thinking about her loving and hateful attitude towards Han Luofan a few years ago, Han Bing felt even more bitter.

He suddenly hugged Han Luofan.

Han Luofan froze.

Her father’s tears fell on his neck. They were moist and a little warm.

Han Luofan heard Han Bing’s tearful confession to him. He said, “Child, I’m sorry. I’ve let you down. You’re right. I did hate you back then. When I first saw you, I even had the thought of throwing and killing you. If your grandmother hadn’t begged me, I would have really killed you…”

At that time, when Ji Yue disappeared, Han Bing lived a life worse than death every day like a walking corpse.
