Chapter 1485: Great to Have You (45)
Mu Qixing followed her out and started chatting with her, explaining to her about everything that Wu Pingyang did. After hearing her story, Mu Wansheng was simply stunned.
“Luckily, you and Luo Hang got divorced long ago. Otherwise, you’d really have been implicated in this. There’s this saying, right? Every jack has its jill. Amazing.”
Mu Qixing smiled faintly. “That’s true.”
….
When the DNA test results came out, the members of the Mu family were all curious to know the truth while the senior Mr. Mu and Mr. Mu both looked indifferent, as if they were already aware of what the results were.
Since she had entered, Mu Wansheng had not gotten the chance to obtain a strand of the elder Mr. Mu’s hair. However, it was pretty clear to her that Fan s.h.i.+xin had gone out previously most probably to follow the staff back to the test center.
The results of the test could not have been faked.
It would not be a lie or a scheme that was plotted.
Hence, she believed that the results of the test would definitely be the truth.
“The test results are out, ” the doctor from the test center remarked, his expression rather sullen. His hands were also trembling slightly as he held onto the test report.
The senior Mr. Mu replied bluntly, “Since they’re out, just announce them.”
“Wait,” Mu Wansheng interjected. “Luo Hang hasn’t married Pingyang, he probably shouldn’t be here to hear this news. I think he should stay away for a while.”
Wu Pingyang felt that Mu Wansheng was intentionally going against her. “That won’t do. Although we’re not married yet, we will be very soon. Luo Hang can stay here, he shouldn’t be asked to leave.”
The senior Mr. Mu was indifferent toward it as well since he already knew clearly that the results would be as per his arrangement. There would be no mistake.
“Wansheng, it’s okay. Luo Hang and Pingyang will get married soon anyway. Since he’s here, he can listen as well.”
Hearing how he had said it like this already, Mu Wansheng had no choice but to reply, “Since Grandfather says so, then please announce the test results, Doctor.”
The doctor flipped open the test report and said, “After comparing the senior Mr. Mu and Ms. Mu Wansheng’s DNA, we found that… they are indeed father and daughter.”
Once this was revealed, everyone’s faces changed instantly.
Wu Pingyang let out a cold snort while the elder Mr. Mu, the junior Mr. Mu, and Mrs. Mu’s faces turned from calmness to rage.
This was not the result they had intended to announce.
How did it…
How did the test result they had arranged properly turn out like this?
“You… have you gotten the wrong results?” the senior Mr. Mu asked.
“Mr. Mu, the results are correct. There are absolutely no mistakes. I’ll take my leave first.” The doctor pa.s.sed the test report to Mu Wansheng before leaving.
Mu Wansheng took a glance at the results, her face unchanged.
She spoke first. “Since this is the results, then there’s no need to say anything more. After all, I’ve already suffered enough from this matter during my university days and even quit school because of this. I didn’t ask to be born, nor was I the one who made a mistake. So, I’m not the one who should be responsible for this either. Since the truth has been revealed, let’s just face it.”
The senior Mr. Mu did not expect her to be this calm. “Wansheng, you…”
“Should I continue calling you Grandfather or Father?” Mu Wansheng asked while looking at him.
“Father, of course. Since you’ve let go of this already, then I won’t say anything much.” It had never occurred to him that things would turn out like this. He had originally given a strand of the junior Mr. Mu’s hair to the test center’s doctor in private while giving his own strand of hair in front of everyone to deceive them. Who would have expected…
Mu Wansheng’s gaze landed on the rest of the Mu family members. “Alright, then, from today on, I won’t be in the Mu family with the status of a granddaughter, but the youngest daughter. Pingyang, you should stop calling me cousin from here on. Since I’m your mother’s sister, you should call me Youngest Aunt. Come, greet me once.”
Wu Pingyang felt like she would be the death of her. She had yet to tease Mu Wansheng about this, and she had already started to use her seniority on her.
The elder Mr. Mu urged her, “Pingyang, what are you waiting for? Greet her.”
Wu Pingyang ultimately still greeted, “Youngest Aunt.”
Mu Wansheng sneered faintly, “You aren’t being sincere at all. Forget it, it’s good that you’ve greeted me. When your Youngest Uncle comes back later, don’t forget to greet him.”
Wu Pingyang was simply on the verge of vomitting blood.
“Why am I the only one greeting you and Mu Qixing doesn’t need to do so?”
“Because Youngest Aunt dotes on you the most, ” Mu Wansheng remarked, winking at Mu Qixing as she did so. Mu Qixing covered her mouth while chuckling.
Given how the truth of what was supposed to be a dirty scandal had come out and transformed into a situation like this, there was simply no way for anyone to start pointing fingers to accuse someone.
When Fan s.h.i.+xin went through the front door, the atmosphere in the house was rather strange. Even though he knew the reason behind it, he still pretended like he was in the dark and asked, “What happened?”
Mu Wansheng discreetly whispered a few sentences into his ear while he, in turn, whispered back into her ear.
After she heard what he had muttered in her ear, Mu Wansheng’s face was burning slightly, as this was what he had said: “I was the one behind it. Please reward me at night.”
“Right, s.h.i.+xin. Pingyang will call you Youngest Uncle from now on. Although you might not be used to it, you’ll grow accustomed to it once she greets you more often.”
Fan s.h.i.+xin grinned as he replied, “Yes, you’re right.”
Wu Pingyang’s blood was boiling as she turned speechless because of these two and could not act up either. She could only say, “Grandfather, now that we know what happened between you and Second Aunt, have you thought of how Second Uncle might feel? It wasn’t anyone else but his own father who made him a cuckold. I really feel indignant for Second Uncle.”
The senior Mr. Mu simply responded bluntly, “If you feel like you can’t live in this house anymore or don’t wish to stay here, you don’t have to come back anymore. It’s been something that happened more than 30 years ago. What’s the point of saying such things now? It’s water under the bridge already. I would like to make it claer now. In the future, Wansheng’s status in this house will be that of my youngest daughter. Wansheng’s mother is to move out and will never be allowed to return to the Mu residence anymore.”
Mrs. Mu simply could not believe what she was hearing. “Why do I have to move out?”
“Because I’ll divorce you, ” Mr. Mu interjected. “Since the results have been revealed now, there’s no need to continue a marriage like this anymore, right?”
Mrs. Mu’s face turned pale, and she could no longer utter a single word.
When everyone had left, the senior Mr. Mu immediately got the younger Mr. Mu to go and ask the doctor what exactly had happened. However, he was stopped by Mu Wansheng.
“There’s no need to ask.”
“Why?”
“I made the doctor reveal the true results,” Fan s.h.i.+xin stood out to answer. “Wansheng already had an answer inside, and she did not want to continue living like this without knowing her true background. Even if the truth was this, she felt that there wasn’t anything wrong with it. After all, none of this is her fault, right?”
The elder Mr. Mu let out a deep sigh. “It’s me, it’s all my fault. Back then, when Pingyang’s grandmother pa.s.sed away. I was so devastated that I started intoxicating myself with alcohol. Then, I made such a mistake when I was muddleheaded… I already told Pingyang’s Second Uncle about this in private before.”
“It’s all in the past, don’t talk about it anymore, ” Mu Wansheng replied. “Since this matter has already been revealed, just let it be. We’ll be leaving first.”
