Liu Ruyan looked terrified as she watched General Liu approach her step by step and immediately cried out, "No, Father!"
“How could I not be your daughter? We’ve lived together for over ten years.”
Zou Shuang'er nervously rubbed her hands together.
If Liu Ruyan were not General Liu's daughter, Shixuan would have lost a powerful backer.
No, absolutely not.
She absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.
"General Liu, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs."
"You raised her all these years, how can you just casually express doubt?"
General Liu, upon hearing Zou Shuang'er's words, scoffed:
"Hmph, Madam Zou, you're quite the smooth talker."
“Back then, you all called Ye Lanyin’s children bastards. I haven’t even verified it yet, and you’re already trying to stop me.”
"Could it be that this child is yours and Minister Shen's?"
As soon as General Liu finished speaking, Zou Shuang'er looked at the Marquis of Zhenbei in fright.
“My lord, please don’t listen to General Liu’s nonsense. How could Ruyan be my child? I didn’t even know Lord Shen before.”
The Marquis of Zhenbei was furious. If such a shameful thing were to reach the ears of outsiders, how could he still have any face?
"Shut up!"
General Liu sneered, "See? You're not even happy if I said she was your daughter. It's easy for you to say that when you're not in my shoes!"
With that, he waved his hand, and the servant who had followed him walked toward Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan was so frightened that she kept backing away until there was no way to go behind her.
"I'm sorry, young lady."
After the servant finished speaking, he immediately grabbed Liu Ruyan.
Shen Lanxue sat anxiously in the chair, waiting for the maid to return and report the news.
Lin Wanwan brought it from somewhere and placed it in front of General Liu with her short legs.
"Uncle Liu, here you go~"
"Good, good, good, Wanwan is so good." General Liu was just worried that no one would serve her.
Zou Shuang'er was so angry her eyes almost popped out.
That damned Lin Wanwan! She's not even a member of the Lin family anymore, yet she still comes back to cause trouble!!
General Liu bit his finger and dripped the blood into the water.
Immediately afterwards, the servant also grabbed Liu Ruyan and brought her to have her blood dripped.
Soon, two drops of blood fell into the bowl. General Liu held his breath and stared intently at the bowl.
Lin Chang'an and Xiao Chengyun also craned their necks to look into the bowl.
Hey.
Go collect entrance fees!
Lin Chang'an shrank back and crawled out from underneath, sneaking towards the main gate.
After haggling with the storyteller, they happily took the silver notes and led their group towards the back door.
Soon, people were hiding in the bushes throughout the mansion.
Lin Chang'an patted his bulging chest and swaggered back to the front hall.
"ah--"
"Damn it, she's definitely not my daughter!!"
"Liu Ruyan, it's a pity that I've treated you like my own daughter all these years."
General Liu sat down in a chair, furious, and pounded the chair with both hands.
The Marquis of Zhenbei and Zou Shuang'er were furious.
Really not?
They had finally managed to climb up to the Liu family.
That's all?
After being shocked, Liu Ruyan knelt heavily on the ground with a thud.
She cried and recounted her story, tears streaming down her face.
"Father, I will only recognize you and Mother in this life, and I will never go back to my biological parents."
"Father, please don't abandon your daughter. I can't live without you."
"father……"
Marquis Zhenbei also hurriedly spoke up.
"General Liu, the kindness of raising a child is greater than the kindness of giving birth to him. You can't abandon this child."
“Yes, General Liu, Ruyan is a good girl, you can’t be so heartless,” Zou Shuang’er chimed in.
Upon hearing this, General Liu flicked his robes and sat down in his seat.
"Since you two are so kind-hearted, why didn't you even include Ye Lanyin's children in the family genealogy back then?"
"Don't tell me you've forgotten; everyone in Bianjing knows about this!"
The Marquis of Zhenbei and Zou Shuang'er were so ashamed that they couldn't lift their heads.
Seeing this, General Liu continued:
"You've really got a good plan. You won't even acknowledge Ye Lanyin's child yourselves, but you're asking me to acknowledge a child of unknown origin."
"You guys are so shameless!"
Liu Ruyan clung tightly to General Liu's robe.
"Father, please don't be so heartless."
Lin Wanwan grabbed some pastries from the table and stuffed them into her mouth.
The Marquis of Zhenbei felt a pang of heartache watching her eat so heartily.
He was offering these pastries to his in-laws; he hadn't even eaten any himself.
"Mmm, delicious~"
"Daddy's here~"
As soon as Lin Wanwan finished speaking, she saw Minister Shen rushing over angrily, followed by a maid and a woman.
The maidservant quickly walked up to Shen Lanxue and shook her head at her.
Shen Lanxue immediately stood up, "Mother~"
Madam Shen, sobbing, reached out and grabbed Shen Lanxue.
"Lanxue, let's go home and talk about it. This marriage is up to your father. We're not getting married."
Minister Shen roared.
"Shut up!"
"You wretch! Today, I, your humble servant, will conduct a blood test to prove our kinship in front of your in-laws!"
Marquis Zhenbei was still in shock a moment ago.
The next moment, the words "family verification" startled him quite a bit.
It's another blood test for kinship.
What exactly happened today?
They wanted to get rid of Lin Wanwan, but General Liu was still there, and the Marquis of Zhenbei didn't dare to give the order.
Madam Shen knelt on the ground, crying and shouting:
"Sir, let's go home and talk about this. We shouldn't wash our dirty linen in public."
"Go home and talk about it? That's not your home anymore!"
"I'd like to see who my daughter really is!"
Lin Wanwan muttered to herself:
"Uncle Liu~ it's tied, she's not tied it~"
