"You're being incredibly rude!" Yao Zheng said coldly. "What do you mean by 'outsider'? Manning has been our daughter for over twenty years, how can she be an outsider!"
"She's an outsider!" Qin Minzhi shouted excitedly. "Wanyin is our daughter! It's this bitch who ruined Wanyin!"
"Minzhi!" Yao Zheng raised his voice, "Don't talk nonsense without evidence! Manning harming Wanyin, that's all just your imagination!"
"No!" Qin Minzhi glared at him. "That day, Yao Manning insisted on accompanying me to see the attending physician. She had ulterior motives and wanted to take advantage of my absence to harm Wanyin! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Wanyin was kidnapped just because I wasn't in the ward for a moment?"
Yao Zheng sighed deeply at her, and finally uttered a few words heavily: "You are simply unreasonable!"
“I’ve made my decision,” he said coldly. “Wanyin is in poor health and has now developed amnesia. It’s impossible for her to get married or take over the family business… So, let Manning take on this responsibility!”
Qin Minzhi's mind went blank, as if a heavy object had fallen from the sky and crashed down on her.
She stared at Yao Zheng for a long time, unable to believe her ears.
"What...what did you say?" Qin Minzhi asked him, "You're going to hand Yao Shi over to that bitch?!"
"Yes!" Yao Zheng glanced at her and put his hands behind his back.
Qin Minzhi trembled with anger.
"Yao Zheng, don't forget!" she gritted her teeth, "The Yao family doesn't belong to you alone. Without my dowry and my family's influence, the Yao family wouldn't be among the four great families of Yangcheng!"
"Fine, fine, it's all thanks to your Qin family, okay?" Yao Zheng said impatiently. "Qin Minzhi, after all these years, can't you say anything else to me? You think you've done something great by giving birth to a daughter with congenital defects?!"
"you……"
Qin Minzhi never expected that Yao Zheng would dare to speak to her like that one day.
Over the years of their marriage, Yao Zheng, though not a perfect husband, had always been very devoted to her. But today, he actually did it for Yao Manning…
Qin Minzhi suddenly shuddered!
Why is Yao Zheng protecting Yao Manning so much? Could there be something more to Yao Manning's background?
"You don't need to look at me like that, I'm just telling the truth!" Yao Zheng shouted. "Minzhi, we've been husband and wife for so many years, you should know me well! I don't want the Yao family to be without an heir, and I certainly don't want the empire we've built to end up changing hands!"
“Although Manning was adopted, she also has the surname Yao!” He said this while looking away as if he felt guilty.
“Manning is at least healthy, and we’ve raised her a lot since she was little. Even if she can’t marry Huo Zhixing, she can still marry into a respectable family! That way, her marriage can provide security for the Yao family.”
"But what about Wan Yin? Besides causing us parents so much worry and trouble, what else has she done?"
Qin Minzhi was speechless for a long time.
She looked at Yao Zheng and suddenly felt that this man was terrifyingly unfamiliar.
"Ha, in your eyes, children are just tools for your own profit, right?"
"Look at you, you've said something really unpleasant again..."
"You bastard!"
Qin Minzhi suddenly raised her hand, her movements swift and decisive, and a resounding slap landed on Yao Zheng's face!
Yao Zheng stared in disbelief, half of his face burning with pain.
Qin Minzhi didn't want to argue with him at the hospital, so she turned around and left.
As soon as she arrived home, Yao Manning came out to greet her with a big smile, but her smile disappeared as soon as she saw her.
"Dad!" She glanced at Yao Zheng behind her and nodded slightly.
Qin Minzhi sneered, "Now Miss Yao only has eyes for her father, and no longer for me, her mother?"
Yao Manning glanced at Yao Zheng subconsciously before turning to Qin Minzhi and softly calling out, "Mom."
However, this "Mom" was not as respectful and ingratiating as usual; Yao Manning's face also carried a hint of mockery and sarcasm.
Qin Minzhi's heart tightened slightly.
"Oh no, what happened to Daddy's face?" Yao Manning exclaimed.
Yao Zheng waved his hand, indicating that she was fine, but Yao Manning made a fuss and almost went to get the first-aid kit.
Qin Minzhi frowned and quietly watched the scene before her.
They are more like a real father and daughter...
Father and daughter?
Qin Minzhi's eyes darkened, and a thought flashed through her mind like lightning.
"Mom, how could you hit Dad?" Yao Manning questioned her. "Why can't you talk things out instead of resorting to violence!"
"Ha, when did it become your place to tell me what to do, you little bitch?"
“You…” Yao Manning glared at her, and after a moment, a smug smile appeared on her lips.
"Mom, is it because you were upset that Dad wanted to hand over the company to me that you hit him?"
Qin Minzhi's expression was cold, and she didn't say a word.
Yao Manning laughed, "I understand! You just can't stand to see me doing well, you can't stand to see me get more than your daughter! But I did get it anyway, so what can you do about it?"
“Manning!” Yao Zheng growled.
But he couldn't stop Yao Manning.
At this moment, she had become a mad beast.
She turned and went to the study, took out a DNA test report from the drawer, and threw it directly in front of Qin Minzhi!
The numbers above looked like a steel knife, piercing straight into Qin Minzhi's chest.
"What..." She gasped for breath, her heart felt like it was going to jump out of her throat, and her whole body froze.
"Yes, you read that right." Yao Manning crossed her arms over her chest. "I am my father's biological daughter!"
Qin Minzhi glared angrily at Yao Zheng, but Yao Zheng pretended to be mute.
"Tell me, what happened?"
"This..." Yao Zheng licked his lips. What else was there to explain? He had only made a mistake that every man in the world would make.
“Let me tell you, Mrs. Yao.” Yao Manning walked up to her arrogantly, looked at her disheveled appearance, and sneered, “My mother died when I was very young, so I went to an orphanage. Fortunately, my father knew about me and came up with a way to bring me back from the orphanage.”
"Ha, what adoption, what compatibility of horoscopes with my sister... these are all just excuses to cover things up!"
"You can never say I don't have Yao family blood in me again!" Yao Manning's face twisted in rage. "Mrs. Yao, I am the daughter of the Yao family, there is no doubt about that! In the future, I will not only be the daughter of the Yao family, but I will also be the president of the Yao Group!"
"And you... you might as well die together with your good-for-nothing daughter!"
Qin Minzhi was having difficulty breathing, feeling all the blood rushing to her head. She pointed at Yao Manning, her hand trembling uncontrollably.
He wanted to yell at her, but he couldn't utter a single word.
In a fit of anger, she rolled her eyes several times, lost her balance, and fell headfirst to the ground with a thud...
"Oh dear, Minzhi!" Yao Zheng exclaimed in surprise. "Quickly, call the driver and get her to the hospital!"
