Upon hearing that she wouldn't cooperate with the bone marrow matching, Shao Xiaofei panicked.
So she readily agreed.
"Xiao Fei!" Qin Yu suddenly called out to her, shaking his head at her.
Shao Xiaofei's eyes reddened, but she still glanced at Qin Yu's expression and took two steps back.
Pei Shasha continued negotiating with them: "To get a bone marrow match, you need to send me five million first. I'll give you my account number in a bit. Once the match is successful, I want half of my fortune!"
"What did you say?"
Qin Yu increasingly felt that there was something wrong with this woman.
"Shouldn't they?" Pei Shasha curled her lips. "The Qin family hasn't raised me all these years, and they want to take my bone marrow the first time we meet. Shouldn't they give me some compensation?"
Qin Yu remained silent.
Even if Pei Shasha hadn't brought it up, he would have compensated her anyway. But the fact that she brought it up herself made it feel different.
To everyone's surprise, Shao Xiaofei nodded in agreement!
"Are you crazy?" Qin Yu finally lost his temper.
"Qin Yu, I think you've gone mad!" Shao Xiaofei shouted. "Right now, all I want is for my daughter to live. I'm going to save her life!"
"you……"
Before Qin Yu could finish speaking, he caught a glimpse of Pei Shasha's smug smile out of the corner of his eye.
Even though he was wearing a mask, the smile still made him very uncomfortable.
He took a deep breath to suppress his anger, but Pei Shasha turned and left, as if she was certain that the couple wouldn't dare to bargain with her.
After she walked away, Qin Yu said in a deep voice, "This woman's identity is unknown, and I don't believe a single word she says!"
"Qin Yu!" Shao Xiaofei's eyes widened. "Do you know what you're saying?"
Qin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
He was different from Shao Xiaofei. Shao Xiaofei grew up in a scholarly family, and although Shao Zhiheng was involved in politics, he had a strong scholarly air about him. Everyone in the Shao family was a scholar, which led to Shao Xiaofei's overly simple upbringing. Although she had a fiery temper, she was straightforward and a very emotional person, so others could easily manipulate her with just a few words.
Qin Yu, having witnessed the cutthroat world of business since childhood, is wary of everyone.
They were especially wary of Pei Shasha.
The pocket watch is indeed real, and the photo is not photoshopped, but the refusal to do a DNA test is very suspicious.
Moreover, on their very first meeting, they demanded an exorbitant price: five million for a tissue matching procedure.
If we use her bone marrow in the future, wouldn't we be risking half of the Qin family's fortune?
Qin Yu's face grew increasingly gloomy, the knot between his brows relaxed and tightened again, and finally he let out a long breath.
"Xiao Fei, I understand how you feel, and I also want to save Nuan Nuan! But you can't lose your mind because of your daughter, or someone will take advantage of you!"
"I don't care!" Shao Xiaofei shouted, "You don't want to save Nuannuan at all... You don't deserve to be her father!"
"Calm down!" Shao Xiaofei hugged her shoulders. "Don't you have any doubts about her identity? Yes, the pocket watch is real, but a pocket watch can't talk! It can't tell you who its previous owner was!"
“What…” Shao Xiaofei was stunned, staring blankly at him.
Qin Yu loosened his tie. The low ceiling of the room made him feel suffocated.
"The old man does have this pocket watch, but that doesn't mean that the person who has this pocket watch is the old man's child."
"Then... what should we do?"
Qin Yu remained silent.
He didn't know what to do either. Pei Shasha had nothing but a keepsake, and she wouldn't even do a DNA test.
If they won't even do a DNA test, there must be something wrong.
But there's also a 50% chance that she is his sister...
Qin Yu rubbed his temples wearily.
However, in an instant, a flash of lightning seemed to strike his mind, illuminating the words Ning Meng had spoken at Shao Zhiheng's banquet: "Pei Nian's mother is a human trafficker! She grew up in an environment where human trafficking was rampant, so she must be very familiar with human trafficking!"
Qin Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart began to pound!
"What... what's wrong with you?" His unusual expression left Shao Xiaofei puzzled. She gently patted his shoulder, wiped away her tears, and whispered, "You're right, I shouldn't have been so impulsive... but I think we should still think of a way to get Pei Shasha to do a DNA test, so everyone can feel at ease. How about I go talk to her?"
"No need." Qin Yu practically spat out these words. "I... I'm going to see someone first."
"who?"
"Ningmeng".
Shao Xiaofei was very confused. "Ning Meng? Isn't she in jail? Even the Ning family doesn't want to see her!"
"Yes, so she must be very excited that someone is still willing to see her at this time. Perhaps in her excitement, she will be able to ask some questions!"
*
After leaving the Qin family, Pei Shasha did not return to her residence, but instead took a detour to the hospital.
With bodyguards accompanying her, she easily found Qin Nuan's hospital room. Then she dismissed the bodyguards and made up an excuse to send all the medical staff away.
The identity of being an illegitimate daughter of the Qin family is quite useful.
Everyone was wary of her being Qin Yu's sister, so whatever she said went.
Pei Shasha entered the ward and immediately spotted the thin, small figure on the bed. A thought crossed her mind, and she slowly walked over.
Qin Nuan had just finished her IV drip, and her fair little hands were covered with bluish-purple marks. Her large eyes looked disproportionately large on her small face.
Pei Shasha sat expressionlessly on the edge of the bed. Qin Nuan sensed someone was there, turned around abruptly, and opened her eyes wide.
"You...you are..."
"Warm and cozy?"
Qin Nuan dared not speak, biting her lip tightly.
Pei Shasha scoffed and reached out to touch her head, but Qin Nuan instinctively dodged away, grabbing the blanket and wrapping herself in it.
What are you doing, child?
"You, get out! You..."
Qin Nuan was trembling all over, terrified.
She didn't know who this person was; all she knew was that the mask on their face was terrifying. Actually, it was made of gold and jewels, but the little girl thought that anyone who didn't show their true face must be a bad person!
"Are you afraid of my mask?" Pei Shasha laughed. "Little Nuannuan, don't you think this mask is cool?"
"I don't think so!" Qin Nuan said clearly and distinctly.
Do you know who I am?
"have no idea……"
"Once you know who I am, you'll like my mask."
Qin Nuan's eyes showed fear, and her small body trembled uncontrollably.
Pei Shasha's cold hand touched her small face.
"Oh, little girl, I'm your aunt!"
"No, you're not!" Despite being terrified, Qin Nuan struggled to break free. "I have an aunt, and my aunt isn't you!"
"Then I'll take off my mask and show you?" Pei Shasha smiled. "Then you'll know whether I'm really your aunt or not."
