He unexpectedly becomes a father at the start of his life, and the mother of his child is a national

Lin Caiwei did not answer immediately.

She put her phone back in her bag, and then carefully took something else out of it—a photo printed on stiff photographic paper.

She looked down at the photo, her eyes instantly becoming extremely complex, filled with tenderness, heartache, and struggle.

After looking at it for several seconds, she seemed to muster up the courage to hand the photo to Chen Hao.

"Take a look at this first."

Chen Hao took the photo with a puzzled look.

The photo shows a little girl.

She looked to be about two or three years old, wearing a cute pink dress, with two little pigtails on her head. She was smiling at the camera, her eyes curving into crescents, revealing a few tiny teeth.

Her skin was snow-white, and her face was round and chubby, like a delicate porcelain doll.

It's so cute, anyone who sees it will fall in love with it.

But Chen Hao's gaze was firmly drawn to it.

It's not just because the child is cute.

The little girl's features... look very much like Lin Caiwei!

Especially those smiling, crescent-shaped eyes and small mouth—they're practically a miniature version of each other.

Anyone could tell that this was definitely Lin Caiwei's child.

However, what made Chen Hao's heart skip a beat was another strange feeling.

Looking at the little girl's smile, a corner of his heart softened, and an indescribable sense of warmth arose within him.

It seems like... I've seen it somewhere before?

No, it's impossible.

He was certain he had never seen the child before.

But this feeling is real and abrupt.

"This..." Chen Hao looked up at Lin Caiwei, not understanding why she was showing him photos of her child.

Lin Caiwei met his gaze, her red lips parted slightly, and she spoke clearly, word by word:

"This is my daughter, Lin Sisi."

She paused, her sharp gaze fixed on Chen Hao's eyes, as if trying to ascertain his every reaction.

"She's your daughter too."

"..."

Time seemed to stand still.

Chen Hao stared with his mouth agape, still in the position of looking at the photo. It was as if a bomb had been thrown into his mind, and with a "boom," all his thoughts were shattered, leaving him completely blank.

daughter?

Lin Caiwei's daughter?

Or...my daughter?

A few seconds later, the jumbled thoughts were pieced back together, but all that came out were question marks and a sense of absurdity.

He shook his head violently, as if trying to dismiss this absurd claim, his voice trembling with shock:

"What...what did you say? Miss Lin, this joke isn't funny at all!"

He quickened his pace, attempting to refute this absurdity with logic:

"You're saying she's my daughter too? That's outrageous! I don't even have a girlfriend!"

"I'm just a food delivery guy! You, Lin Caiwei, a big star, we've never had any connection whatsoever before!"

"I can't even afford the cheapest ticket to your concert! How could I possibly be this child's father? You must be mistaken! You're 100% wrong!"

Chen Hao felt like he was going crazy.

The things that happened today were more and more bizarre than the last.

First, someone resembling Lin Caiwei forcibly pulled him into the car, then casually gave him 10,000 yuan to buy a beat-up car, and now they're telling him they have a daughter.

Lin Caiwei seemed to have anticipated his reaction, and her face showed little surprise, only a deep weariness and helplessness.

After Chen Hao finished speaking excitedly, she opened her bag again, took out a folded file folder from a hidden compartment, opened it, pulled out a bound report, and handed it over.

"I know you won't believe me." Her voice was calm, but upon closer listening, there was a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.

"This is the evidence. See for yourself."

Chen Hao hesitated before taking the report.

On the white cover, several eye-catching words in bold black font read: "Parental Relationship Assessment Report".

Below is the name of a seemingly authoritative appraisal institution.

His fingers were a little stiff as he flipped open the cover and looked directly at the conclusion page.

After a few lines of technical jargon, he saw the most crucial line:

"Based on the DNA analysis results, it is supported that there is a biological relationship between sample 1 (Lin Sisi) and sample 2 (Chen Hao)."

The signature of the appraiser and the official seal of the institution are also present.

The date was... half a month ago.

Chen Hao's pupils suddenly contracted.

The name on Specimen 2 is indeed Chen Hao's, and the ID number is also blurred, but the exposed digits are the same as his.

He stared intently at the conclusion, his blood rushing to his head and then receding just as quickly, leaving his hands and feet feeling cold.

Is this a genuine authentication report?

The format and official seal look very professional.

but……

He looked up abruptly, his remaining rationality struggling desperately to find a loophole.

Yes, a vulnerability!

This report came too easily!

"First!" Chen Hao's voice was a little hoarse as he raised a finger.

"How did you get my report... that biological sample? I had no idea about it! When and how did you get it?"

How could he have had a sample taken for a paternity test taken without his knowledge?

Hair? Saliva? Or blood?

"Second!" He raised his second finger, posing the more crucial question.

"Even if this report is genuine, how can you be sure that the sample you provided to the forensic institution, the so-called 'father' sample, is definitely mine, Chen Hao's? What if you've got the wrong person? Or..."

He paused, not uttering the word "forgery," but the meaning was clear.

These two questions are very pointed and get straight to the heart of the matter.

Chen Hao stared intently at Lin Caiwei, not missing a single change in her expression.

Lin Caiwei did not panic after hearing his question, but her eyes became more complicated.

She pursed her lips, seemingly considering her words.

"The first question," she began slowly, avoiding Chen Hao's gaze and looking out the window at the rapidly receding street scene.

"You don't need to know how I got your biological sample. I have my methods, and I make sure it's yours, no mistake."

Her tone was very certain, with an air of unquestionable authority.

"As for the second question," she turned back, her gaze hardening once more as she looked directly into Chen Hao's eyes,

"If you don't believe this report, we can go to any qualified testing agency you specify right now, take a sample on the spot, and do a paternity test again."

You can supervise the entire process to ensure the samples are error-free. Once the results are in, everything will be clear.

Her words silenced all of Chen Hao's doubts based on the possibility that the report was fabricated.

If she dares to redo it on the spot, it means she is extremely confident.

Chen Hao was speechless.

He looked at the pure and beautiful face before him, yet one etched with seriousness and exhaustion, and then at the cold, hard medical report in his hand.

And the shocking conclusion in the report, and the little girl's bright smile in the photo... my mind was completely in turmoil.

Could it be... could it be true?

But how is that possible?

He has absolutely no recollection of it!

I have absolutely no recollection of it!

Just as his thoughts were in utter confusion and he was almost about to believe this absurd truth—

【Ding! 】

A crystal-clear electronic notification sound, seemingly ringing directly in the depths of his mind, jolted him awake.

Chen Hao froze completely in the back seat, his eyes wide open, the appraisal report and photos he was holding slipping onto the leather seat.

What was that sound just now?
