Chapter 155 Eldest Brother and Sister-in-Law

As soon as Shao Muyan finished speaking, he was met with a glare from Shao Min.

"I'd like to, but do I dare?"

Their eldest son is the most gentle of them all. He is neither as slippery as Shao Mushi nor as upright as Shao Muyan, but he is the most shrewd and worldly-wise.

He doesn't manage things much at home, and nobody can control him.

There was another reason why Shao Min didn't set her sights on the eldest brother: although Shao Yun resembled a member of the Shao family, he was not like Shao Muwen at all.

"Besides, even if I didn't show myself, my sister-in-law should have already made a move. She didn't say anything, so there's nothing to worry about."

Madam Shao is the matriarch of the family, but she doesn't manage affairs and has long since handed over the power of household management to her eldest daughter-in-law.

Their eldest sister-in-law is the real tough character; she's not someone to be fooled.

If the eldest brother really did something to wrong his wife, she wouldn't make a scene like the second sister-in-law. She would simply hand him a divorce agreement, clearly dividing their belongings, and then kick him out of the house.

Since nothing happened, it means the incident wasn't caused by the eldest brother.

After listening to his sister talk for a while, Shao Muyan calmly took a sip of coffee and took out his phone.

He made a phone call right away.

"Sister-in-law."

Shao Min's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and after listening to Shao Muyan's conversation with her sister-in-law, she was already drenched in cold sweat.

As expected of the third brother, he's got guts!

They dare to stick their heads into a tiger's mouth to pull out its teeth!

Fearing trouble, Shao Min tried to run away, but Shao Muyan caught her quickly.

"The paternity test came back normal, so... have you had a kinship test done?"

Shao Min's eyes widened suddenly.

She stared at Shao Muyan, dumbfounded.

Kinship testing?

"Okay, I understand, sister-in-law." Shao Muyan hung up.

Shao Min excitedly lunged forward, "Sister-in-law even had a kinship test? How was it? What were the results?"

Shao Muyan raised his eyes slightly, a glint of light in them.

He seemed to be pondering something.

Shao Min waited for a long time but didn't hear Shao Muyan utter a single word, and she became extremely anxious.

Her younger brother has always been incredibly steady, almost to an excessive degree. He's like a silent gourd, impossible to get a word out of. Whoever is unlucky enough to live with him in the future will be driven crazy by him!

"Speak up!" Shao Min kicked Shao Muyan's shin under the table.

Shao Muyan pulled his leg back, dusted off his trousers, and slowly asked Shao Min, "Does the orphanage have any records about Yunyun's background?"

"Didn't I tell you all this already?"

Shao Min was an impatient person, and her mouth spewed out like a machine gun: "Back then, my parents questioned me countless times. I asked them everything they needed to ask. Yunyun was indeed an abandoned baby, left at the gate of the orphanage one autumn morning. She was wrapped in a red cotton quilt, with nothing on her body, and she didn't cry or make a fuss. The director even thought she was a little mute."

Upon hearing this, Shao Muyan's face turned pale, and his heart clenched.

For most of the years, he, as the younger brother, had been taking care of Shao Yun. But the more emotions he poured into Shao Yun, the less he dared to ask about his life in the orphanage, for fear of breaking his heart.

Shao Yun rarely mentioned it to his face, nor to the Shao family. The few times he did mention it, he told Xiang Chu like a story. But this did not mean that Shao Yun wanted to sever ties with the orphanage. On the contrary, he would visit the orphanage every now and then to see the director and the children. This was also a condition he made when he was adopted.

In fact, many families wanted to adopt Shao Yun, but he chose Shao Min because she was genuinely kind-hearted and capable of meeting the conditions he set.

Shao Yun never wallowed in self-pity; he was too insightful.

She's so clear-headed, she doesn't even look like a child.

After a moment's pause, Shao Muyan said to Shao Min, "My sister-in-law said she arranged for my brother to have a paternity test done."

Shao Min's pupils contracted.

"But she hasn't had a kinship test done."

Shao Min was stunned for a moment, and Shao Muyan immediately said, "I don't believe it."

"..."

—

Yu Residence.

Just before entering his home, Shao Muwen was still instructing his secretary on matters, his expression serious and solemn.

Once inside the house, all external affairs are shut out.

"I'm back."

Yu Wanqiao was in the living room having a flower arrangement class with a group of close girlfriends. When she saw her husband return, she greeted him. Everyone stood up to greet Shao Muwen, who nodded slightly, not wanting to disturb her, and strode upstairs.

It took the group of ladies quite a while to reluctantly turn their gaze away from Director Shao's retreating figure.

The men of the Shao family are all handsome.

To be honest, Shao Muwen's appearance wasn't particularly handsome; he wasn't as good-looking as his two younger brothers.

His appearance and demeanor easily evoke the phrase "national prosperity and peace," perfectly embodying the spirit of a Confucian general.

"Your uncle is still single?"

Madam Lin gently hooked Yu Wanqiao's elbow. "I have a niece who just returned from abroad. She studies art and is a perfect match for me. How about we meet her? We should keep the good stuff in the family."

Yu Wanqiao's long hair was tied back, with a thin strand of hair hanging down in front of her forehead, giving her an indescribable gentle and elegant appearance.

"No, no one can make decisions about my younger brother's marriage."

"Nonsense, as the matchmaker, how could Third Master Shao not give you face?"

Yu Wanqiao just smiled slightly, but didn't respond.

After seeing off her group of wealthy female friends and exchanging all the necessary information, Yu Wanqiao went to the kitchen to arrange dinner before going upstairs.

Just as I was about to take off my floral dress in the dressing room, a tall figure pressed against me.

It rubbed against her neck like a big dog.

Yu Wanqiao said, "Dirty."

Shao Muwen said, "I'm tired."

...

Yu Wanqiao's fingertips were trembling as she came out of the bathroom and back into the dressing room.

Men's words are all lies.

Who is truly exhausted?

"I'll put it on you."

Shao Muwen provided excellent service. After dressing his wife, he smiled and kissed her on the corner of her mouth, then picked her up and placed her on the bed. He then brought her a pair of white cotton socks to put on her.

Yu Wanqiao, looking rather lazy, brought up serious business with him, saying, "San'er called me today."

"Oh?" Shao Muwen asked, "What is it?"

"Ask Shao Yun, ask if I did a paternity test for you and Yun Yun back then."

Shao Muwen suddenly looked up, raising an eyebrow: "Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Yu Wanqiao shook her head. "Something might have happened, and I have some doubts."

"Did you say so?"

"He only told half of it."

Yu Wanqiao said, "I said I only did a paternity test, not a kinship test."

Shao Muwen narrowed his eyes. "He can't be trusted."

"I know."

Yu Wanqiao lied, but laughed lightly, "Ayan is very clever, let him investigate."

After laughing, he quickly put on a serious expression.

"Those who plotted against Ayan back then have paid the price they deserved, but that girl has still not been found."

Yu Wanqiao sighed softly and hooked her hand around Shao Muwen's hand. "Honey, this is something we owe Ayan. We've dragged him to this age. What if Ayan really ends up a bachelor? How are we going to explain this to our parents?"

"I'm not afraid."

Shao Muwen pinched his wife's calf and massaged it for her, saying, "He'll be taken in by Yu Xiaoyan sooner or later."
