It was a pity she hadn't waited for Jin Lan, and had also lost herself and her child.
"Ye Wan, I'm sorry," Gu Yunting said, his lips trembling, finally uttering those three words to her.
Ye Wan's body trembled violently. She had never imagined that in her lifetime, she would hear those three words from his mouth.
He would actually apologize to her proactively?
Ye Wan's mind went blank. She hated Gu Yunting, but she also knew that it all stemmed from love. Without love, where would hatred come from?
But now, she truly just wanted to get away. The pain he had given her far outweighed the good.
Ye Wan endured the sharp pain in her chest, ran over, hailed a taxi, and left.
Gu Yunting stood there, the trouser leg below his right knee empty. Gu Ye knelt beside him, supporting him so he wouldn't fall. After a pause, he heard Gu Yunting say, "Let's go, let's go back."
"Yes, Young Master." Gu Ye stood up, picked up the prosthetic leg that had fallen on the ground, and helped Gu Yunting back into the car. Once Gu Yunting sat in the car, a layer of cold sweat had broken out on his forehead.
"Get a paternity test done. For me and Ye Tuan Tuan." Gu Yunting thought that even if it was his wishful thinking, he wanted to give himself a glimmer of hope. If Ye Tuan Tuan was his daughter...
"Yes, Young Master! I'll take you to the hospital immediately." Gu Ye said as he got into the passenger seat and instructed the driver to drive to the hospital.
Jin Lan looked at the connection point on Gu Yunting's leg, which was already red and swollen. This was a common occurrence for people who wore prosthetics daily. In theory, it shouldn't be worn all the time, and the wound needed time to rest. But Gu Yunting was too stubborn, insisting on wearing it every day and refusing to use a wheelchair.
"How many times have I told you not to do this, but you never listen! How can you be so stubborn at your age?" Jin Lan said as he treated the wound on his leg.
"..."
Gu Yunting remained silent, his face grim. After a while, he simply closed his eyes, not wanting to hear anything more.
Jin Lan knew that when he acted like this, he didn't want to hear anyone speak, so he also closed his mouth and stopped.
When they came out, he asked Gu Ye what had happened. Gu Ye told Jin Lan everything.
After listening, Jin Lan sighed helplessly and said, "I really think that child might be Ting Ge's. Hurry up and get it done, and let us know the fastest possible result."
"Yes, I'll go now. The results can be out as soon as tonight." Gu Ye said.
He was just worried about Gu Yunting, so he stayed behind to wait. Now that Jin Lan was here to take care of him, he felt relieved and immediately went to handle the urgent matter.
The results came out quickly. Gu Ye, holding the paternity test results, trembled with excitement. He quickly took out his phone to call Gu Yunting.
"Young Master, Miss Tuan Tuan is indeed your daughter!" Gu Ye's voice trembled with excitement. How many years had it been? He felt that the young master had lived too hard, living every day in self-blame and regret, wishing he could die to atone for his sins. If it weren't for the possibility that Ye Wan might still be alive, the young master would have given up on living long ago.
In the past few years, the young master had shown him what it meant to be a walking corpse, living without a soul or thought, with the only desire being for the young madam to return.
When Gu Yunting heard this news, his eyes instantly welled up with tears. No one knew how scared he had been before this. He was afraid of getting another result. Perhaps heaven also felt pity for him and began to show him mercy, letting him know that his daughter was still alive.
"Jin Lan, she's my daughter!" Gu Yunting said, tears streaming down his face. The corners of his mouth began to curve upwards.
