..."Indeed, my husband Pei Fengzhi and I have only been married for a short time, and our marriage started rather hastily. Therefore, I did not want to pry into his past, but only wanted to look at the present and the future. I have never asked about his past relationships. I just never expected that such a misunderstanding would occur."
A reporter sensed something else in Ye Ningwan's words and asked with some surprise.
"Ninth Madam, do you mean that the little boy who had a legal dispute with Pei Fengzhi is Pei Ninth Master's illegitimate son?"
Ye Ningwan's eyes were red and her pupils were filled with tears, which, combined with her stunningly beautiful face, made her look even more pitiful.
Her voice was choked and hoarse, yet she smiled at the camera, which evoked a sense of pity in people just by looking at her.
"I think the term 'illegitimate child' is very inappropriate. It's a derogatory term. It should be called 'child born out of wedlock'."
As soon as Ye Ningwan opened her mouth, the press conference room erupted in an uproar.
All the reporters looked at each other in bewilderment. All the prepared remarks they had made were now useless, and at the same time, countless questions and sharp inquiries arose in their minds.
The host pointed to a member of a friendly media outlet who stood up and asked a question.
"So, this is a miscarriage of justice, and Master Pei was simply meeting with his biological son? It's not like what's being widely circulated online..."
Ye Ningwan nodded.
"I have secured evidence of the online rumors about my husband, Pei Fengzhi, and have filed a police report. Every person who spreads rumors must pay the price."
Just as Ye Ningwan's gaze swept over every reporter present, a reporter sitting in the back row suddenly stood up and questioned Ye Ningwan.
"Ninth Madam, are you implying that your husband, Pei Fengzhi, has a child outside of your marriage? But everyone in Jiangcheng knows that Pei Fengzhi has no other woman by his side, so how could he have a child?"
The reporter paused, then spoke with barbs aimed at Ye Ningwan.
"Or is this all a scam, designed to clear Pei Fengzhi's name, suppress the trending topics, and stabilize the Pei Group's stock price!"
Ye Ningwan maintained her smile.
"Actually, I don't believe my husband could have a five-year-old child, so I had a DNA test done on my husband and the child by a relevant identification department. I believe you wouldn't believe me if I said this, so I invited Director Bai, the director of the forensic department of the Municipal Bureau, to answer your questions."
As Ye Ningwan finished speaking, a plump, fair-skinned figure walked onto the stage and took the microphone from the host.
Sitting next to Li Mochuan at the bottom was Jiang Yinglin, who had rushed over this morning.
Jiang Yinglin touched his nose, carefully leaned close to Li Mochuan's ear, and whispered.
"Why did you bring in the forensic department? Luo Rui is targeting Pei Fengzhi so much, can the municipal bureau really help us? Aren't you afraid of backfiring?"
Li Mochuan glanced at Jiang Yinglin, then quickly looked away, focusing his attention on Ye Ningwan on the stage, his tone indifferent.
"Don't worry, there's no problem."
Sure enough, Director Bai's voice resounded throughout the entire press conference venue.
"I now announce that, based on DNA testing, there is a 99.99% probability that Mr. Pei Fengzhi and a certain child are father and son."
These words caused an uproar at the scene.
No one expected that Pei Fengzhi, who had always been indifferent to women, would have had a son five years ago.
So, who is this child's mother? What is her identity? And will she use her son to gain power and position, forcing Ye Ningwan to step down?
Many of those present were somewhat inclined to watch the spectacle unfold.
If the position of Madam Pei Jiu is indeed changed by then, then Ye Ningwan's act of standing in front of others to clear Pei Fengzhi's name today will be extremely ironic and utterly shameful.
A reporter immediately asked a question.
"What are you really thinking? You were forced to appear here by the Pei family. In reality, you didn't want to be here to clarify this matter for your husband, Pei Fengzhi, right?"
"What does the Pei family plan to do with this child? What about the child's mother?"
Will you divorce Master Pei later?
"..."
Faced with a barrage of questions, Ye Ningwan remained calm and answered indifferently.
“The child’s biological mother has gone abroad and will never come back. Before she left, she entrusted the child to my husband. My husband took my feelings into consideration and temporarily raised the child abroad. I never expected that such a big misunderstanding would occur.”
“I love this child very much, and I will raise him as my own son. As for my relationship with my husband, I think that is a private matter between us, and you don’t need to worry about it.”
After Ye Ningwan finished speaking, she winked at the host.
The host understood and immediately addressed everyone.
"That concludes today's press conference. Please leave in an orderly manner."
Ye Ningwan stepped off the stage, and Jiang Yinglin went to greet her.
"sister in law."
Ye Ningwan wasn't surprised to see Jiang Yinglin. Although he had been sent out by Pei Fengzhi, the matter had escalated to such an extent that even someone sent to the Amazon rainforest would have received the news by now. How could he possibly sit still? He rushed back immediately.
Judging by the time, it should be today.
Ye Ningwan raised her chin at Jiang Yinglin.
