Ke Yingying took Xiao Zian to America and settled her life before leaving. Ke Yingying didn't even meet Xiao Zian's significant other. Ke Yingying did this intentionally. He wasn't neglecting his duties, but rather respecting Xiao Zian's privacy through his own methods of conduct.
Li Jiu asked Ke Yingying to accompany her with the intention of letting other members of "Logical Paradox" know that the organization still had control over Xiao Zian. However, upon arriving in America, Ke Yingying discovered a problem: it wasn't easy to control someone in another country. Li Jiu had never intended to control Xiao Zian. After discerning Li Jiu's thoughts, Ke Yingying chose to go through the motions.
Of course, Ke Yingying had his own agenda. He took his son to another state, another city, and sought out the best doctor there to perform a deoxyribonucleic acid test.
Holding the results, Ke Yingying couldn't believe his eyes. It was true; the paternity test proved the child was his. This was a foreign land, and no one would plot against him here.
Ke Yingying's hands trembled. Something he thought he'd never have in his life had happened like a miracle.
Feng was his son, his biological son.
...
In traditional Chinese beliefs, parents would sacrifice everything for their children. Even Ke Yingying, a schemer, was no exception. While in America, he experienced its excellent medical conditions and educational resources. Thinking of himself, although a schemer was considered wealthy in the eyes of outsiders, Ke Yingying ultimately still considered himself a criminal.
Thus, Ke Yingying made a decision to let his child live and study in America.
...
Hearing Teacher Wang Ren's account, I roughly understood that Ke Yingying's child was related to Xiao Zian losing her psychologist's license.
"Why did Xiao Zian also go to that city?"
Teacher Wang Ren sighed, "As far as I understand, Xiao Zian also didn't want 'Logical Paradox' to interfere with her private life. She reported one city, then took her girlfriend, went incognito, obtained a psychologist's license, and lived in another city. These are all normal behaviors."
"Then why did they cross paths?"
"Fate also has another name: coincidence."
...
The city where Xiao Zian and Ke Yingying's son lived experienced a school shooting at a middle school. Twelve students and one teacher were killed in the shooting. Among the twelve students was one of Chinese descent, who was Ke Yingying's son, Ke Feng.
The perpetrator of this shooting was two local teenagers. One of the teenagers committed the crime because he had been bullied by classmates for years. The teenager's parents were aware of this and sent him to Xiao Zian's psychology clinic. However, Xiao Zian's psychological guidance seemingly had no effect.
That year was 1999. Ke Yingying, who went to America to attend his son's funeral, was devastated and couldn't recover. Xiao Zian also paid a price for this sudden event; her medical license was revoked. Under public pressure, Xiao Zian left the city with her friend, who was about to give birth. However, they were involved in a car accident while leaving. The child was saved, but the mother died.
After Lin Zhijun's death, Xiao Zian, as his successor, was ordered to take over Lin Zhijun's work. Thus, Xiao Zian returned to Guangzhou Foshan with the child, who was a few years old.
This is the extent of what Teacher Wang Ren knows. It is truly an unforgettable tragic fate.
"Uncle, did Ke Yingying know that the psychologist of the American youth who killed his son was Xiao Zian?"
"He didn't know."
"If this wasn't a setup, there would be no need to blame a psychologist. As a fellow psychologist, I stand with Xiao Zian. Frankly, revoking Xiao Zian's license in America was due to public pressure. One person's violence cannot be linked to a psychologist. There are many other factors involved, such as the relationship between poverty and crime. The poverty here isn't just about material scarcity but also accompanying prejudice. In that country, more significant factors include racial discrimination, family breakdown, career, family conflicts, and, most importantly, the availability of firearms."
Teacher Wang Ren's words were reasonable. In such sudden events, many factors need to be considered, and there's no need to fixate on one counselor. Ke Yingying is a sensible person. If he were to blame anyone, it would be fate for toying with him. He had resigned himself to the fact that he would have no descendants, yet fate bestowed one upon him, only to snatch it away.
Ke Yingying's heart was broken!
...
"Uncle, I have another question. Did Xiao Zian know that one of the deceased students was Ke Yingying's son?"
Teacher Wang Ren pondered for a moment and said seriously, "I don't think Xiao Zian knew either. Ke Yingying hid his son in America precisely to avoid the organization 'Logical Paradox.' And Xiao Zian was the only member of 'Logical Paradox' living in America. If I were Ke Yingying, Xiao Zian would be the last person I would want to conceal this from."
"If neither of them knew, then who ignited this long-simmering conflict?"
Teacher Wang Ren looked at me with a subtle, profound gaze and asked, "Wasn't it you?"
"Uncle, can you stop joking? This is the first time I've heard this tragic story today."
"Then I don't know. Ke Yingying sent me this fax to confirm if Xiao Zian had indeed obtained a psychologist's license under a new name. He disappeared before he received my confirmation."
...
I looked up at the ceiling, and Teacher Wang Ren sat quietly. Suddenly, I turned to him, "Uncle, do you think there's another possibility?"
"Let's hear it."
"Not long ago, two people learned this secret and began to attack each other."
"Then why is Ke Yingying only revealing this secret now?"
I sighed, "These two people, in front of me, are like the Monkey King and his impostor in Journey to the West. To distinguish between the schemer and the victim, I set up a plan to share intelligence on both of them. During this process, Ke Yingying was at a disadvantage. He probably sensed I was targeting him, so he released this information."
Teacher Wang Ren sighed deeply, "Tang Nan, your actions are becoming unpredictable. You're a bit like Xiao Shi back then. Even if what you say is true, why did Ke Yingying disappear after giving me the information?"
...
Additionally, this account was linked to another account belonging to Chang Dachun. A video message left for Xiao Zian stated that after Xiao Zian's son graduated from university, a foundation would transfer fifty million to Chang Dachun. However, Xiao Zian did not mention the name of the fund management company in the video message.
...
Xiao Zian and Ke Yingying both intended to use my strength to defeat their opponent. However, with this intense conflict emerging, they no longer planned to do so. They appeared to be determined to kill each other, regardless of the consequences.
