Pulling out Shen Yubai's white hairs isn't as difficult as they thought it would be.
Shen Sinian had an idea, but Xu Chuning couldn't get him to reveal what it was.
After spending a while in the hospital, they decided to return to the restaurant first, then take care of other matters later.
When Xu Chuning returned to the restaurant, You Shuzhen was busy.
Seeing her and Shen Sinian arrive together, You Shuzhen didn't ask much. She always trusted Xu Chuning, knowing she wouldn't get into trouble outside.
"Ningning," You Shuzhen handed her a bowl of rice noodles and two chicken legs that had just been cooked and packed, "deliver this al to Xiao Shen."
Xu Chuning took it and asked, "Ordered by Shen Yubai?"
You Shuzhen nodded.
Xu Chuning uttered a sound of acknowledgnt and was about to turn around to deliver the al when Shen Sinian suddenly spoke up, "I'll go."
Hearing this, the mother and daughter looked up at him.
Shen Sinian gave Xu Chuning a look and said softly, "I happen to need to talk to him about the hair issue."
"Can you handle it?" Xu Chuning was sowhat worried.
Shen Sinian sincerely looked at her, "Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."
Xu Chuning thought it over and, looking at the face in front of her that sowhat resembled Shen Yubai's, she guessed that maybe Shen Yubai really wouldn't do anything to Shen Sinian.
With this thought, she handed over the dinner, and also stuffed the old mobile phone she had on her into his hands, "Call the restaurant if anything cos up."
Shen Sinian responded with a hum, glanced at the specific address written on the order, "I'll head out now."
Watching Shen Sinian leave, You Shuzhen looked at Xu Chuning worriedly, "Ningning, are you sure about letting him deliver the al for us?"
Xu Chuning nodded, "Mom, he knows his limits. Don't worry."
She pondered for a mont, then whispered, "Once we're done with the rush, I have sothing to tell you."
You Shuzhen was half-convinced, "Alright."
During the dinner rush, more and more custors ca into the restaurant.
You Shuzhen and Xu Chuning didn't talk much more; the mother-daughter duo—one was in charge of cooking, the other took care of clearing tables and washing dishes and utensils. They were busy but content.
anwhile, Shen Sinian was riding Xu Chuning's bicycle towards the high-end residential area where Shen Yubai lived, his long legs sowhat cramped pedaling the small bicycle.
After registering at the entrance, Shen Sinian smoothly entered the residential area, found the building where Shen Yubai lived, and then took the elevator up.
When the doorbell rang, Shen Yubai had just finished showering. He casually took a clean towel and draped it over his dripping wet hair, walking towards the door.
Opening the door, Shen Yubai reached out to receive the food, slightly lifting his gaze—
Abruptly, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the young man whose stature didn't differ much from his own, "Why is it you?"
Shen Sinian smirked, showing his usually reserved adolescent temper only in front of Xu Chuning, "If not , who would you expect? Xu Chuning?"
Shen Yubai sneered, not paying him any mind.
He reached out to take his dinner, intending to close the door as soon as he had it.
Unexpectedly, Shen Sinian stepped to the side, hiding the delivery behind him, "...I have sothing to tell you, and I'll give you the dinner after."
"Oh?" Shen Yubai had never encountered soone threatening him before in his life. He scoffed coldly and lifted his eyelids to ask, "Who are you? Do you really think I won't do sothing to you?"
Angered by his attitude, Shen Sinian wanted to declare that he was his bona fide son.
But saying that out loud wouldn't carry any weight, and the generational difference would make things even worse.
Thus, the word "son" circled around Shen Sinian's mouth and was swallowed back down, "Don't worry about who I am, just give a few minutes to speak, and then I'll leave."
Shen Yubai had neither the leisure nor the ti to listen to him.
He was just about to close the door when the ringtone of the cellphone he had casually tossed onto the living room couch sounded.
"You answer the phone first." Shen Sinian was very polite.
Shen Yubai's eyebrows twisted slightly as he stared at him for a while before turning to pick up his cellphone.
The call was from Ban Shu, who had been Shen Yubai's brother since they were kids.
The two of them had agreed to play gas together that night, but Ban Shu had been waiting for a while without any sign of Shen Yubai.
"Why haven't you co online yet?" As soon as he picked up, Shen Yubai could hear Ban Shu's protest, "I've been waiting for ten minutes."
Shen Yubai glanced at the upright figure standing by the door, his tone cool, "Five minutes."
Ban Shu: "...Alright, but make sure you're on in five minutes. I'm bringing a girl to play today, and it's not nice to keep a lady waiting."
Shen Yubai snorted softly and hung up on him.
After hanging up, he lifted his eyelids to look at the person standing still, "I'll give you one minute."
Shen Sinian childishly criticized him, "...Stingy."
Shen Yubai's gaze was indifferent.
Shen Sinian asked, "Can I co in?"
Without receiving an outright rejection from Shen Yubai, Shen Sinian took it as consent. He wasn't afraid of Shen Yubai and directly stepped into the house that Xu Chuning had often visited but had never entered before.
He placed the takeout he was carrying on the dining table and turned around, "I know what I'm about to say sounds absurd and you're unlikely to believe it, so why not give us a chance to present the evidence?"
Shen Yubai furrowed his brow, "What do you an?"
Shen Sinian: "A few days ago, Xu Chuning and I did a paternity test. I just got the results today."
He took the paternity test out of his pocket and placed it in front of Shen Yubai.
Shen Yubai looked up, glanced at the test results, and scoffed, "What does this have to do with ?"
His emotions were faint, showing no change.
Any other person would have been shocked or have had questions seeing the paternity test result of Xu Chuning and Shen Sinian. However, Shen Yubai showed no such reaction—it seed he couldn't care less about this bizarre situation.
"She's my mom, you're my dad, what do you think our relationship is?" Shen Sinian asked, "Give two strands of your hair, and I can prove the truth of what I'm saying."
Shen Yubai glanced at him sideways, leaning arrogantly on the dining table with his legs crossed, "What makes you think I would agree to give you my hair?"
Shen Sinian pursed his lips, "You wouldn't want to bother you every day, would you?"
If Shen Sinian weren't worried about Xu Chuning being concerned for his future, he wouldn't have wanted to co to Shen Yubai with this matter—he felt humiliated.
But if he didn't do this, the only person left would be Xu Chuning. He didn't want to subject Xu Chuning to this humiliation.
Shen Yubai sneered, "Are you threatening ?"
"If you call it a threat, then it's a threat," Shen Sinian couldn't be bothered to argue with Shen Yubai and extended his hand, "So, are you going to give it or not?"
He had a pair of peach blossom eyes identical to Shen Yubai's, but while Shen Yubai's were narrow and cold, Shen Sinian's were upturned and glistening. The sa type of eyes on two different faces gave off completely different impressions.
After a silent standoff, Shen Yubai's thin lips barely moved, "Don't even think about it."
How could he possibly hand over his hair to him.
Shen Sinian had expected him to refuse, but he hadn't expected him to be so dismissive.
His brows slightly furrowed, Shen Sinian confird with Shen Yubai, "You really won't give it?"
Shen Yubai coldly snorted, the mockery clear.
After receiving Shen Yubai's firm response, Shen Sinian closed his eyes for a mont before leaving a final remark, "You're forcing my hand."
Then, he made a move towards Shen Yubai.
