BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1413 - No Better Than A Dog
If Yun Xi could recall from her last life, Hao Yaotian’s existence was the biggest humiliation of Han Hongbin’s legally wedded wife, Madam Han.
Even though Han Yaotian had returned to the Han family and became the deputy head of the house, Madam Han did not stop her disdain toward Han Yaotian, and she had even dragged Yun Xi into her hatred in that life.
This was especially so after she had helped Han Yaotian overcome the financial crisis the Han family faced and boosted Han Yaotian’s status within the Han family. Madam Han was afraid Han Wanling will lose the position as the head of the house and humiliated Yun Xi publicly to bring down Han Yaotian’s reputation.
But that was all in the past. With her knowledge of another illegitimate child of the Han family, Yun Xi had all the material to make her revenge more interesting.
If it was not for the man’s criminal history, she had planned to release this man to the Han family to see what kind of chaos his existence will throw the family into.
“...” Han Yaotian’s expression was dark. A tiny spot of light flickered in his eyes as he turned back to the man. He seemed to be pondering something.
Yun Xi blinked. She had firsthand experience of Han Yaotian’s suspicious nature, and she was more than willing to let him find his own proof and evidence. It was more reliable to seek the answers yourself than to rely on an external party, and Han Yaotian would be more willing to work with her.
“If Chairman Han is doubtful about his identity, I can ask the men to collect a blood sample for you to do a DNA test. If there’s a 98 percent match with your father’s DNA, then there is no doubt he is your father’s son.”
Han Yaotian was caught off-guard by Yun Xi’s suggestion. Yun Xi seemed to be able to read his mind on the doubts he had. The proposal had made Han Yaotian feel rather vulnerable. He felt that he had no way to hide his thoughts from Yun Xi.
“It’s not that I doubt you. This is not a small matter, so I would love to have some form of verification...”
“Oh? So Chairman Han did not tell you about the other illegitimate sons he had? Has Chairman Han never wondered if he had another one like you?”
“What do you mean?” Han Yaotian spun around in confusion, the hands he had in his coat pockets squeezed into a tight fist.

He recalled that Han Hongbin seemed wary of him since his return to the Han family. It was a wariness that had not resolved, despite Han Yaotian’s attempts to prove himself to his father.
Han Yaotian had assumed the wariness came from the years they spent apart as father and son, so there would be awkwardness and unfamiliarity in their exchanges. He had faith that it would change over time. However, the years of work he had put in was for nought, and the tension remained as strong as ever. He was the only son of Han Hongbin, yet his father did not think as well of him as he did the foolish Han Wanling.
The truth was finally unveiled to him at that moment. He was not the only son of Han Hongbin after all.
“According to my investigations, Chairman Han was very protective of him. You know, the family did not know about him because Chairman Han had arranged for special housing accommodation, and he had been educated abroad. Chairman Han had spent all his birthdays with him and made sure the foreign news media did not capture any photographs or videos of them together. He seemed to like this son very much. I’m afraid Han Wanling could not even compare.”
Yun Xi continued as she gazed calmly at Han Yaotian, “Chairman Han didn’t do anything when Han Wanling was exiled, yet he protected this man so well. He didn’t need to shoulder any of the responsibilities of the Han family like you did too. He didn’t need to sacrifice his life for the family, and he lived a life of luxury because of Chairman Han.”
“No... that’s impossible...” Han Yaotian’s fist struck the glass panel with a thud. He gritted his teeth in seething rage as his eyes met with the man who was oblivious about what was transpiring on the other side of the glass.
The cautiousness in his heart was slowly eroded by the anger and unjust he felt. He would have accepted the fact that he had lost years to bond with his father and accepted the hard work he had to put in to prove himself if he was the only illegitimate son. All of his sacrifices could be repaid to him, if he managed to gain a standing for himself.
His acceptance faltered now that he learned of another illegitimate son, who was similar in age yet had lived a drastically different life. If he were to compare the differences in their treatment, Han Yaotian was treated no better than a dog Han Hongbin had picked up from the streets.
He wondered if his father was absent at moments he needed him the most because he was spending time with the other son. Why did Han Hongbin treat them so differently if they were both illegitimate sons? He wondered, why was he the one that was treated less than human and slaving away for the Han family?
Han Yaotian worked his life away to gain a mere status as the vice-chairman of the Han Corporation, while the other man had barely worked to gain a lifetime of reputation and wealth from Han Yaotian.
Why? The anger and injustice within Han Yaotian reached a crescendo point. They had the same illegitimate birth, so why? Why was he treated so unfairly?
