After I opened the gift box, I still had doubts in my heart, so I sent a message to my mother: "I am the only biological son of you and dad, right? I was not picked up from the trash can, right?"

Within two seconds, my mother sent me a photo of my birth certificate, saying that it had always been the background of her chats with me, and she didn't understand why I suddenly asked this question. Then, she took a photo of my father's mobile wallpaper and sent it to me. It was a photo of me and my parents in the hospital room on the day I was born.

I know the implicitness of fatherly love and my father's poor expression. Putting our photo in the most prominent place is his ultimate expression of love.

Looking at the two photos on the screen, my doubts became stronger. Even if it was adopted, it is impossible for someone to take the baby away at birth.

My mother seemed to sense that I was in a bad mood, and she transferred another 521,314 yuan to me, leaving a message: "Why are you so strange today? Are you short of money? Although it is your birthday today, Xiaowan is also very hard-working in taking care of the family. You can use the money to buy her a gift, but don't say it was me who taught you to do that."

I accepted the transfer, replied to my mother with an "obeyed" emoji, and told her to watch my father drive slowly on the road, safety first.

My mother didn't care, but was moved and said: "My son has finally grown up and knows to worry about us? This daughter-in-law is a good choice! Don't worry, your father has prepared a lot of surprises for you, and he even hid it from me. This old guy is really getting worse and worse at hiding things as he gets older."

I responded with mixed feelings, and when Wendy saw that I didn't react after opening the gifts, she came closer to me anxiously: "Husband, don't you like these gifts? Then let me choose new ones, okay? Today is your birthday, I don't want to make you unhappy..."

In today's world where people love their wives unconditionally, Wendy 's thoughtfulness and understanding are particularly rare. I used to be thankful countless times that I married a thoughtful and understanding wife, but now I dare not think so anymore.

She carefully put the gift box I opened into the cabinet, turned around and smiled sweetly: "By the way, you haven't told me when your parents will be home. I asked Quincy to help me prepare some gifts for them. Let's go now, just in time for them to get home."

Before I could speak to stop her, she had already called Quincy. There was nothing unusual about her behavior, but the more normal she seemed, the more nervous I became.

To reassure me, she would press the hands-free button when she called any member of the opposite sex in front of me. After she finished talking about what she needed to buy, Quincy's respectful voice soon rang out: "Okay Wendy , you are so thoughtful about Chairman Williams , they must be very happy to receive the gift!"

Wendy leaned in and kissed my cheek, then said: "I remember that several brands have recently launched high-end suits, I want to give them to my husband, if you think it's convenient, let's buy them together."

Quincy agreed without hesitation. I chuckled and leaned closer to the phone to test him: "Is this too much trouble for you? It would be bad if it affects your normal work. Why don't I go by myself? Anyway, I have nothing to do today since I'm on leave."

Quincy refused without even thinking: "Serving you is my job, it's what I should do, it's not a big deal. I'll make an appointment now, happy birthday to you!" His voice was so sincere that I couldn't hear any other emotions, which made me even more confused.

He has always been dedicated to his work, and I have proposed to give him a raise several times to express my gratitude. But he always declined politely, saying that everything is his job, and he only wants a raise based on his work ability.

I once admired my father's unique vision for hiring such a good assistant for Wendy. But I didn't expect that such a principled man would stand up and accuse me of being an ungrateful person immediately after the car accident.

As time went by, my doubts and uneasiness grew stronger. I had to get to the bottom of all this!
