Lu Anning couldn't help but laugh: "Madam Gu's memory is not very good. I said, I am not short of money."

"It's the Tang family that's not short of money, not you. There's no point in pretending. You deliberately brought out the Gu family's things at the exhibition, weren't you just trying to get me to come to you? If not for the money, are you after my status as the Fifth Miss of the Gu family?"

Ji Yan looked at the face carefully and had to admit that Lu An Ning's eyebrows and eyes did resemble her own, but she was not that stupid.

Both of her sons had mentioned this woman to her. How could such a calculating person like her be related to her?

Ji Yan was confident that she had seen through Lu Anning's thoughts and sarcastically said, "If you knew what was good for you and took the money and handed over the things obediently, you could still get some benefits. You should learn to be smarter!"

Lu Anning smiled and said, "The things are mine. When did they become your Gu family's? What are you trying to gain? That's all Madam Gu's own idea. I don't think I said anything! I won't sell the things. The Gu family is powerful, but not everyone can come and become your daughter."

She had wanted to warn Ji Yan, but who knew she would actually think this of herself? Sure enough, she had been deeply abused by Lu Yunxi and only trusted her.

"You don't want to? Then why are you holding the seal that symbolizes my daughter's identity? Don't think you can alienate the relationship between us mother and daughter with such a seal. Who knows where you stole it from?"

Lu Anning's face suddenly darkened. It was ridiculous that she was treated as a thief while holding her own things.

"Didn't you all assume she was your daughter based on that agarwood plaque? It's dead, so it doesn't prove anything. Madam Gu is convinced, so why don't you go back and get a paternity test and come talk to me after you see the results?"

Ji Yan sneered: "You want to use the same method again? Yaoyao is my daughter, I won't do any paternity test. You said before that she was the daughter of the Lu family, and what happened? A paternity test would only slap you in the face. I won't believe a word you say."

Lu Anning clenched his fists and said, "If you don't believe what I say, then you can always believe what the old director of the orphanage says, right?"

Ji Yan said disdainfully: "Who knows if you bribed anyone? You are not trustworthy at all."

Lu An Ning was angry. It turned out that the Gu family didn't believe his stubbornness at all, which made An Ning feel angry and funny.

"Okay! In that case, there's nothing more to discuss between us. I won't sell anything, Madam Gu, goodbye!"

Lu An Ning didn't waste any more words. Looking at the woman in front of her who was most likely her mother, she felt very complicated.

But after taking two steps, she still didn't give up and looked back at Ji Yan.

Why does she need the Gu family to believe her?

Isn't it enough for her to find the answer herself?

Suddenly she understood, and she stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Gu, can I lend you a strand of hair?"

Ji Yan looked at Lu Anning warily: "What do you want to do?"

"It's just a hair. I just want an answer. Since the Gu family doesn't care, I just want to fill the hole in my heart."

Ji Yan snorted coldly: "You want to do a paternity test? Even if you did, I wouldn't believe it. It's easy to fake the results now. If you have money, you can get any result you want."

Lu Anning smiled slightly and didn't want to refute. However, he felt a little uncomfortable because he was not believed.

She hid her emotions very well and quietly stretched out her hand. Ji Yan generously plucked out several strands of her hair and threw them into Lu Anning's hand.

"Take it! I want to see what tricks you can come up with!"

Looking at Ji Yanru's alms-giving eyes, Lu Anning felt a chill in his heart, and suddenly he was not so looking forward to meeting his family.

Carefully tucking his hair away, Lu Anning smiled politely, turned around and left without any regrets.

After walking out of the teahouse, she called Tang Jingyuan.

The person was nearby, and Tang Jingyuan was worried, so he waited there.

After receiving the call, Tang Jingyuan had a feeling something was wrong.

"Is it over so soon?"

"I'll wait for you at the door. You'll have to take me somewhere later."

Lu Anning's tone was filled with fatigue. Tang Jingyuan didn't delay and quickly walked out of the dessert shop with the freshly baked snacks.

Soon, the car stopped in front of Lu Anning. In just a moment, her face had already turned red from the cold wind.

As soon as I got in the car, Tang Jingyuan handed me hot tea and turned up the temperature in the car.

"Why don't you wait for me inside for a while? Your face is red from the cold."

Lu Anning forced a smile: "It's good to take this opportunity to sober up."

After she told him the address, Tang Jingyuan was stunned at first, and looked at her with surprise in his eyes.

"She believed it?"

Lu Anning shook his head: "They believe Lu Yunxi without a doubt, and they don't believe anything I say. This is just my explanation to myself. Whether the Gu family knows it or not is not important."

No one can wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep!

Lu An Ning went to the most authoritative testing agency in Kyoto. Watching the samples being taken away, Lu An Ning said that he didn't care how he felt. He was both looking forward to it and a little scared.

“Don’t think too much, and don’t take it too seriously no matter what the outcome is.”

Lu Anning nodded, trying hard not to let his thoughts wander.

When they got home, everyone seemed to notice that Lu Anning was in a bad mood, and even the old man tried to make her happy.

Lu Anning looked at the warm family in front of him and suddenly felt relieved.

A true family is not maintained by blood ties. Those around her are the family she should cherish.

When he came to the paternity testing center again, Lu Anning couldn't control his nervousness.

Looking at the door in front of her, her legs suddenly felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move an step.

She swallowed and held Tang Jingyuan's hand tightly.

"Or, you can go in and get it for me!"
