After returning to her bedroom, Wen Yan immediately pulled out the photos she had taken in Su Yang's study.
According to the information, Shen Zhirou's adoptive parents owned a clothing factory and were financially well-off. Wen Yan searched online and found that the factory had indeed been established for over ten years.
The factory's legal representative and Shen Zhirou's adoptive father's identities match perfectly, without any loopholes.
Moreover, this couple is truly kind. According to the records, they often help orphans, and Shen Zhirou is not the first child they have helped.
"Am I overthinking things?" Seeing the written agreement in black and white, Wen Yan couldn't help but doubt herself.
However, she hadn't doubted Shen Zhirou's identity; she just found it too bizarre after hearing what Su Yang said.
At first, she only wanted to expose her true colors and seek justice for the original owner.
However, Shen Zhirou's weasel tail is hidden too well; she needs to be provoked.
If what was written in the original owner's diary is true, and she really did have illicit feelings for Shen Jinghe, then she could make good use of that.

The master bedroom on the first floor.
Su Yang sat absentmindedly in front of the dressing table, unaware that Shen Yuan had already approached her.
"What are you thinking about, honey?"
Su Yang turned to look at Shen Yuan: "Do you remember the first year Zhi Rou came back? At first, Yan Yan and Zhi Rou had a good relationship, but later Yan Yan started complaining about her."
“I remember. What happened? Wasn’t Yan Yan trying to get our attention? Since Zhi Rou came back, she doesn’t receive as much attention as before, so it’s normal for her to throw a little tantrum. Although the two of them are competing openly and secretly, they haven’t caused any major trouble.”
"But... but what if Zhirou really did something really bad to Yan Yan?"
"What is it?" Shen Yuan frowned. "Has something happened that I don't know about?"
Su Yang shook her head: "No, I meant if."
“Then let’s reason with each other. If Zhirou really did something excessive, even if she is our own flesh and blood, we cannot be too biased.”
"Then do you think... using hair for paternity testing might be inaccurate?"
"Of course not. If there were any problems with the hair, the testing agency would have informed us at the time. What's wrong with you? Did Yan Yan say something to you just now? Did she complain to you again?"
"No. Yan Yan plans to get along well with Zhi Rou, so she came to ask me about Zhi Rou's past."
"So you're thinking about the past? But we already investigated back then, and everything was fine, so don't overthink it. Besides, Zhirou looks just like you, how could she not be our child?"
"Okay, then I don't want to think about it."
When Zhirou returned, her identity was questioned by both her own family and her husband's family, but in the end, they were all convinced by a paternity test.
There's no reason for her to start having doubts just because of a few words from Wen Yan.

The next morning.
Everyone sat down at the table on time for breakfast, except for Shen Jinghe.
Upon seeing the empty seat, Chen Yuan frowned.
Before he could speak, Su Yang spoke up first: "Aunt Zhang, go and call Jinghe down."
Wen Yan glanced at Shen Zhirou, who was sitting properly in the chair, and suddenly volunteered.
"Mom, I'll go wake up my second brother. He's grumpy when he wakes up, but I'm closer to him, so he won't get angry with me!"
As Wen Yan spoke, she observed Shen Zhirou's expression.
Sure enough, Shen Zhirou's expression changed when she mentioned her good relationship with Shen Jinghe.
But perhaps because everyone was present, her facial expression didn't change much, and it was on a completely different level from her sudden outburst last night.
After saying that, Wen Yan didn't linger and immediately went upstairs.
She first knocked politely on the door, but no one answered after three knocks, and her hand started to hurt from knocking.
[Shen Jinghe, are you a pig? The sun's already high in the sky and you're still sleeping!]
Shen Jinghe, who was drying his hair just a door away: ...I won't open the door. Knock all you want, knock as hard as you can, knock a hole in the door, and I'll admit defeat if you open it.
The next second, his phone started ringing incessantly.
He hung up on Wen Yan and then called again; he hung up again and then Wen Yan called again.
After dialing three times, Wen Yan finally stopped, but immediately his WeChat started sending out messages.
Wen Yan: Wake up, big star! The whole family is waiting for you to eat.
Wen Yan: Mom even spoke up for you.
Wen Yan: If you keep staying in bed, it will be so embarrassing for Mom.
Wen Yan: You don't want to embarrass Mom either, do you?
The phone kept ringing. Speechless, Shen Jinghe put down the towel in his hand and walked towards the door.
The door was suddenly opened from the inside.
As Wen Yan was editing a message, she looked up and saw a handsome man who had just come out of the bath, his upper body naked and his lower body only wrapped in a towel.
She blinked repeatedly, forgetting to move her fingers.
"...How could you do this? Couldn't you have put on some clothes before opening the door?"
Holy crap, Shen Jinghe's body is absolutely amazing. I don't think he's ever taken his clothes off in front of the camera before, so am I in the front row? Like, sitting on the sofa?
Shen Jinghe's handsome face darkened: "...You knocked on the door, made a phone call, and then sent a message. Did you give me time to get dressed?"
"Uh..." Wen Yan chuckled, "I thought you were sleeping in. Hurry up, everyone's waiting for you to have breakfast."
"You don't need to wait."
"Oh, we've already waited, we can't just wait for nothing. Hurry up and get dressed, I'll go downstairs with you."
"What? Can't you walk by yourself? Are your feet just for decoration?"
