She never expected the always unreliable Ye Mufan to also have such a meticulous side.
"When did you start suspecting it…?"
Ye Mufan thought about it. "I don't remember clearly. There were many things, but it was probably when you suddenly changed your att.i.tude toward Shen Mengqi. At first, it was just those little changes, so I didn't think too much about it… The time that made me distinctly suspicious was probably…"
"When?" Ye Wanwan looked up.
Ye Mufan coughed and gulped as if there were still lingering fears inside him. "The time… the time you punched a giant hole in the hood of Gong Xu's sports car…"
Ye Wanwan's expression froze and she wordlessly clutched her forehead. "Alright…"
So it was the time she got drunk and went crazy…
"Later… I thought about everything from the beginning and realized you seriously changed too dramatically… You were clearly a fragile and delicate girl, but you would always stand in front of us and could resolve everything no matter what. You had a bad memory since you were a child, but now you suddenly have a photographic memory. Although it was plausible you learned some martial arts, you absolutely couldn't be that fearsome…" Ye Mufan said as he sifted through his memories.
"So you went and did a DNA test because you suspected my ident.i.ty?" Ye Wanwan asked furtively.
Ye Mufan shook his head. "No. No matter how I suspected you, I never did a test. I just secretly mentioned it to Dad and Mom a few times in a roundabout way…"
Ye Mufan smiled helplessly. "In truth, I could tell that Dad and Mom also had some doubts, but like me, they also partially thought it was impossible. The other part was that they both subconsciously avoided this topic…"
Ye Wanwan was confused. "Then how…?"
Then how did you confirm it…?
Although Ye Wanwan didn't finish her sentence, Ye Mufan knew what she wanted to say and glanced at the man next to her. "A few months ago, your man suddenly visited in the middle of the night and told us the truth."
Ye Wanwan turned to look at Si Yehan in shock. "Ah-Jiu told you?"
Why didn't I know anything?
Ye Wanwan never expected Si Yehan to have told them the truth that long ago.
Ye Mufan nodded. "Back then, we did faintly sense something was off about you, but hearing the truth from his mouth was still too hard to accept… Then… he just stood outside the door and waited… and also apologized to Dad, Mom, and me…"
Shock covered Ye Wanwan's face. She had no idea this happened.
Ye Wanwan looked at the man next to her again. "Why did you come back by yourself to do this?"
Si Yehan calmly replied, "Considering your personality, after learning about your true ident.i.ty, you definitely couldn't bear to conceal it from them and would tell them the truth. It was my fault to begin with, so you shouldn't have to bear this weight."
Ye Wanwan hadn't antic.i.p.ated Si Yehan would even consider that.
He knew she valued her relations.h.i.+ps and didn't want her to face it alone, so he helped her handle everything long, long ago.
Bitter and complicated emotions swelled in Ye Wanwan's chest. She didn't know what to say.
"What do you mean it's your fault? You only did it because of me… It was me who was too weak and didn't have the courage to face everything, so I selfishly asked you to help me forget those memories. Even if an explanation was needed, it should've been me who explained…"
