[ILivestreamDivination] Chapter 29.1 — Ancestral Grave Dug Up

Amidst everyone’s curious and doubtful looks, the boyfriend’s father sighed, looked out the window, and recalled the past.

“I had a good comrade. He had no father or mother, had a rough life experience, and was diagnosed with cancer at a young age. After he passed away, his wife fell in love with a new partner, but her new husband’s family was quite mean and felt that if she brought in a girl, it would be okay, but it would cause disputes since she had a boy.

“The kid who was just born was being treated like a ball, being kicked around by them.

“I couldn’t stand seeing this anymore, so I said, ‘I’ll adopt him’

“After that, I became a 19-year-old single father…”

Boyfriend:”!!!”

Mengmeng and her family: “!!!”

Audience in the broadcast room: “!!!”

[So this is what happened! Master, I understand!]

[The case has been solved, Mengmeng’s boyfriend is the adopted child of his father.]

The boyfriend’s eyes widened, shock written all over his heart. He raised his finger and pointed at himself, with confusion and surprise in his voice “… Is that child, me?”

Before the boyfriend’s father could answer, the boyfriend’s mother saw that her husband had punctured the window paper. She felt complicated in her heart. She nodded heavily, “It is indeed you. You may not know but that year, my boyfriend brought back a child—I can’t begin to tell you how I felt.”

Although her boyfriend said that the child was not his illegitimate son, and the paternity test did confirm his statement, her family did not want her to marry such a foolish person at all.

Wasn’t this just setting her up to be someone’s stepmother?

Later, her boyfriend earned some money after he was discharged from the army, bought a motorhome, and became a local millionaire. Her natal family thought she would not endure hardship with this kind of life, so they were finally willing to let her marry him.

When the boyfriend’s father heard this, he put his arm around his wife’s shoulders and said gratefully, “Thank you for all these years.”

After he adopted his first child, they also had their own biological son, but his wife still treated the adopted eldest son as if he were her own child, and the family continued to live in harmony.

The two of them looked at each other like honey, very sweet.

The boyfriend was in a trance, feeling that the people he had been with for more than 20 years had become strangers, and the whole world was distorted into something he didn’t recognize at all. “Then, why didn’t you tell me this before?”

The boyfriend’s father sighed after hearing this. “You were too young at the time, and you wouldn’t understand even if I told you about your background, so we didn’t tell you. When Xiao Jiang was born, your mother and I were worried that you would feel that you were different from Xiao Jiang, and you would feel like you were only relying on the goodwill of strangers, so we didn’t say anything.

“If it hadn’t been for what happened today, we would have eaten this secret in our stomachs.

“We have raised you, watched you grow up, and our feelings have long surpassed blood relations. Does it matter whether we are blood-related or not?”

When the other people in the room heard what the boyfriend’s father said, they all felt a little moved, and so did the audience in the livestream channel.

Blood relationship was just one kind of bond. Some people love their children not because of any blood relationship.

Tears flashed in the boyfriend’s eyes, and his voice choked up, “I— I always felt it was a bit weird before. Why did you have me when you were barely an adult? I thought it was because you played too wildly when you were young…”

Boyfriend’s dad: “???”

“You bastard! It was you who made me that way!!”

[Hahahahaha, this child is so filial.]

[Dad: Unfilial son! I really regret adopting you!]

[Most people can’t adopt a friend’s child at all, but this father handled it, and he really did things well.]

[His mother looks gentle and kind. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to support myself, let alone raise other people’s children.]

[I think his father should have told him his life story earlier. No one wants to be kept in the dark about matters like this]

[But I think this is a white lie and it is necessary. If I were a child adopted by my parents, I would rather they never tell me for the rest of my life, otherwise my whole world would collapse and there would no longer be a safe harbor in my heart.]

[Those who feel that Dad is wrong in concealing it, think about Dad’s life experience. The father was abducted. He hid the secret from his son for half his life, and his mother also hid it from him for half his life. They canceled each other out and there is no debt between the two.]

[This livestream is really a Russian matryoshka doll¹.]

… …

When the boyfriend’s life experience was revealed, everyone lamented for a while that things were impermanent, but then there was deep joy in their hearts.

If the two children were really related by blood, they would definitely not be able to bear this, and neither could the parents.

After all, it was an affair between cousins.

Even if the two children were willing to separate, this incident would become a lingering shadow in the minds of the two families, and a deep gap would appear from then on. The joy brought about by the recognition of siblings who had been separated for many years could not overcome this shadow.

But now, the secret has been let out, and it turned out they were not related by blood after all.

Mengmeng’s mother and her boyfriend’s father looked at each other and breathed a shared sigh of relief.

It was a happy event to find a relative who has been separated for many years, and it was also a happy event to have two children get what they want. Now it was truly a double happiness!

The boyfriend realized that the obstacles between him and his girlfriend have now been completely eliminated, so he left the sofa and sat with Mengmeng.

The two of them leaned together tacitly, crying and laughing, their faces full of joy after escaping the disaster.
