I haven’t seen him for so many years. I heard Qiqi say before that he seems to be a minister of the central government. Since he has been in officialdom for many years, he must be more calculating now.

After the call ended, Xia Mei put the phone back in the living room. Seeing that Xia Mei's face was not very good, the nurse hurriedly said, "Aunt Xia, are you feeling unwell again? Let me help you take a rest first."

"Nothing." Xia Mei waved her hand, "I'm going to meet a colleague tomorrow. Just stay at home with Xiao Lin and don't go out with me." Xiao Lin was the nanny's name.

"But what if..."

"I'm just meeting you near home and I'll be back soon. Besides, it's inconvenient for you to follow me out to meet my colleagues." Xia Mei interrupted, "If I really feel unwell, I will call you. of."

Seeing Xia Mei's insistence, the nurse couldn't say anything more. When Xia Mei went out the next day, after repeated instructions, she put some emergency medicine into the small bag that Xia Mei carried with her. Don't worry.

Xia Mei came to the cafe she had agreed with Shen Yeding and saw the other person without much effort.

Shen Yeding is wearing a suit and leather shoes, his hair is neatly combed, his figure looks slightly stout in middle age, and he wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He doesn't look as downtrodden and arrogant as he did back then, but he looks like he is in an official position. Rich state.

Shen Yeding obviously saw Xia Mei, stood up, and smiled at Xia Mei.

Xia Mei stepped forward and said, "I'm here. Just tell me what you have to say."

"Sit down first. It's hard to talk if you stand like this." Shen Yeding said. Compared to Xia Mei's sarcastic remarks, he seemed much kinder.

Xia Mei glanced at the other party coldly, and finally sat down.

The waiter came forward and asked, "What would you like to order?"

"A cup of latte and a cup of warm water will do." Shen Yeding said. When the waiter walked away, he said to Xia Mei, "You have only been discharged from the hospital not long ago, so it is better to drink warm water."

Xia Mei pursed her lips. Isn't this seemingly considerate behavior what fascinated her in the first place? She thought that because he paid attention to details and took great care of her, he loved her.

But it's just that some men are like this in nature. It's just a habit of theirs. It's not a matter of whether they love or not.

And it is this habit that will make them favored by women, and also cause women to misunderstand.

Not long after, the waiter brought warm water and coffee. Xia Mei looked at the warm water in front of her, but did not drink it. She just looked at the man in front of her coldly.

Shen Yeding seemed to be sipping his coffee leisurely.

For a moment, neither of them spoke. After a moment, Shen Yeding put down the coffee cup in his hand, opened the door to Xia Mei and said, "Xia Qi is my daughter, right?"

Xia Mei was shocked and denied, "No, she is not your daughter."

But after hearing this, Shen Yeding still had a calm smile on his face, "Whether it is true or not, you only need to go to the hospital to do a DNA test. Nowadays, medical science is advanced, and this kind of test is also very convenient."

If you go for a test, the result will only be one... "You haven't come to see me in years, and when you come, you mention my daughter. What do you want to do?" Xia Mei asked.

Shen Yeding stared at Xia Mei with burning eyes, "I want to recognize her."

Xia Mei almost jumped out of her chair. Although she had imagined this possibility before, when these words actually came out of the other person's mouth, she still felt a strong anger.

"Recognize her? Why do you recognize her? Shen Yeding, do you still remember the last words you said to me? You said that even if I really had it, I would abort the child. If you want to recognize her now, Don't you think it's too late?" Xia Mei said angrily.

"It's a little late, but it's better than my daughter never knowing who her father is." He said, with a look of regret and sorrow on his face, "Mei, give me a chance to make amends, and give me a chance to start over again." A chance to be a father."

At this moment, he called her name affectionately just like he did back then.

Xia Mei's expression was a little dazed, but then she sneered, "Aren't you already married? Didn't your wife give you children? Are you asking for compensation and begging to be a father?"

"I have already told my wife about you and that Xia Qi should be my daughter. My wife also agrees with me taking care of you mother and daughter." Shen Yeding said.

Xia Mei was stunned. She didn't expect that his wife would actually agree, but - "My daughter and I live very well, and we don't need you to take care of us. What's more, you are not qualified to be my daughter's father. If you really For the sake of everyone, just like before, we will never have contact with each other. Even if we see each other, we can treat it as if we haven't seen each other."

After a pause, Xia Mei added, "You'd better not talk nonsense in front of your daughter. If some things are revealed, you will only be embarrassed. Do you think your daughter is still a child now? She is still crying and clamoring for her father. What’s your age?”

"Even if she is older and married now, I will still be her father. I can give her the father's love she has never received. How can the nature of blood be wiped out so easily?" Shen Yeding argued. .

Xia Mei examined the other person's expression. If she hadn't been severely hurt by him and saw his true nature clearly, she would have thought that he was sincere and wanted to make amends.

"If Qiqi had not married into the Jun family today, would you still come to me and say these words?" Xia Mei said directly.

A flash of nervousness flashed across Shen Yeding's face, but he regained his composure immediately, "Of course I will, I didn't come to you because Qiqi married into the Jun family, it just happened that I came to you when Qiqi married into the Jun family. It was only then that I learned that you had given birth to a daughter for me, and that I also knew about Qiqi’s existence.”

Shen Yeding's words were almost impeccable, but Xia Mei's heart was not moved at all.

"Since in the past so many years, you have never thought of coming to me or coming to confirm whether I have given birth to the child, then you must have already planned it in your heart, even if I really If you give birth to a baby one day, you will never recognize it, right?" She said word by word.

He suddenly felt embarrassed as if she had seen through it. The ugliest face of his life had been exposed in front of this woman. Even though he had been immersed in officialdom for so many years and had long been good at concealing his true thoughts, but in front of her , but there is still a feeling of nothing to hide.
