"Dad... this is all a misunderstanding! Li Xiaomei is my ex-girlfriend. We ran into each other by chance in the photo. She... she's had a really hard life. She married a drunk, and he was always beating and cursing at her. She finally had no choice but to divorce him and has been raising their child all by herself. It's been incredibly difficult for her. I just happened to run into her, and seeing how miserable she was, I couldn't help but comfort her... Dad, it was just a hug, nothing more, I swear!"
"And the child? Is he yours?"
"I..."
Shen Zhengfeng froze, not answering immediately. Shen Yi, standing beside him, spoke in a calm voice. "Dad, I'm the one who took that photo. At the time, I overheard that woman say that Chen Feng is your son. Later, I went to the school to confront Chen Feng about it, and he told me that Mom and I stole the life that should have been his and his mother's. Dad, I don't understand what he meant. Why don't you tell me what's really going on?"
