The old man's bodyguard greeted him with a smile as soon as he arrived: "Young Master, you've come. The old man is playing chess with Ms. Xi."
Xi Leng nodded to the other person, then headed straight for the main living room.
Hearing the voices, the old man looked out over his reading glasses. Aunt Xi, standing beside him, teased, "Dad, don't take back your moves under the pretense of someone's presence. Hurry up, or you'll lose in three moves."
The old man said angrily, "Impossible! I'll checkmate you in three moves!" Afraid that his daughter would take it seriously, he simply scrambled the chessboard and messed it up. Then he immediately got up and said, "I think it's that kid A Leng here. Hurry up and have someone make a pot of tea and wash a plate of fruit."
Aunt Xi said she was used to it; old people are like children, throwing tantrums and acting spoiled is normal—what a load of rubbish!
I've never seen anyone more shameless than her dad!
I'm never playing chess with him again!
Xi Leng walked into the living room and immediately knew what his grandfather had done. He wisely avoided looking towards the chessboard. "Grandpa, Aunt, how have you been lately?"
The old man waved his hand. "Come on, you brat. I know you too well. You don't come here unless you need something. So, what's wrong? Did your brainless parents do something again?"
Xi Boyuan couldn't have been truly brainless to have reached that position, but he was overly romantic and indulged his wife without any limits, which the old man saw as a sign of being brainless.
Xi Leng helped the old man sit down in the rosewood chair. "You must know about Yu Ruxia bringing home a child a few days ago, right?"
"Yes, I know. What's wrong? Is there something wrong with that child?"
“He was born at full term, but was born 15 months after Aye’s accident. In the four years since he was born, the child has been forced to undergo seven plastic surgeries.”
Xi Ye had his accident five years ago in February, and next February will mark six years. The child is only four and a half years old, and he never slept with Yu Ruxia, so Yu Fan is definitely not Xi Ye's child.
"What about the paternity test? You didn't skip it, did you?"
Xi Leng said, "Yu Ruxia provided a paternity test, which supports the claim that Aye and Yu Fan are father and son."
"How is that possible? The timing doesn't match up! Surely foreign countries don't already have the technology to alter DNA?"
After saying that, the old man seemed to remember something and immediately shut up.
“I had the maid in my house take Yu Fan’s hair. The test results showed that only one of the 21 loci did not conform to the laws of genetics. The conclusion was that “considering the mutation site, it cannot be ruled out that the two are father and son.”
However, the identification report provided by Yu Ruxia concluded that the DNA data from all 21 loci provided conformed to the laws of inheritance.
Although the two reports differed by only one locus, the fact that such a difference occurred in less than three months, based on the testing time she provided, confirmed my suspicion.
“I suspect that the drug that was injected into my body five years ago was provided by Yu Ruxia.”
There is likely a research institute behind her that specializes in studying human genes.
They've even made significant breakthroughs in genetic research; my body is a prime example, and altering Yu Fan's genes wouldn't be a problem either.
However, this technology is probably still unstable. Over time, its effects may disappear or it may cause gene mutations. This is probably the main reason why Yu Ruxia took more than five years before she dared to bring her child back to China.
Otherwise, Yu Ruxia wouldn't have gone to such lengths to have Yu Fan undergo plastic surgery.
Letting him use a face that resembles his brother to deceive the couple at home would definitely make them feel more sorry for the child than a mere paternity test certificate.
The fact that Yu Fan had undergone seven plastic surgeries was actually deduced based on the time he disappeared.
Yu Ruxia hid people too well; it took a lot of effort for the people behind her to find out this much information.
As for why Xi Leng said that the person had a research institute behind him—that was something he thought of on the way.
Five years ago, they tried to kidnap him for money, which was also a way to kill him.
But they failed.
The drug that can change his body's basic abilities is not something an ordinary person can produce. As we all know, research is extremely expensive. Five years later, their research needed money even more. So, Yu Ruxia reappeared and took over the Xi family. Then, that research institute would never have to worry about money again.
Aunt Xi said angrily, "What is the Yu family trying to do? Our family has no grudge against them, has it?"
Xi Leng glanced at his aunt: "What grudge do we need? Money is enough."
Aunt Xi immediately fell silent.
She is currently single, but she has been married before.
The man's surname is Lü, and his name is Lü Xiuran. The two met at a party. Lü Xiuran came from an ordinary background and worked in Longcheng after graduating from university. He became the business manager in three years and can be considered young and promising. At that time, Aunt Xi was in charge of the family company. The two fell in love at first sight.
When she brought him home, the old man even had someone check. It turned out that Lü Xiuran had no fiancée, no "white moonlight" (ideal love), and had an ex-girlfriend whom he dated for three months before breaking up with after graduating from university.
Once it was confirmed that he was alright, the wedding naturally took place very soon.
The couple were deeply in love for a year after their marriage. Then, Aunt Xi became pregnant. Lü Xiuran doted on Aunt Xi, treating her like a precious treasure. In the end, Aunt Xi simply stayed home to rest during her pregnancy and let Lü Xiuran help manage the company.
When Aunt Xi's child was four years old and ready to go to kindergarten, she returned to the company and found that the company had changed a lot. The senior executives were extremely obedient to Lü Xiuran, and when she wanted to know about some business matters, the subordinates would make excuses and tell her to ask President Lü.
Aunt Xi wasn't a truly naive person, so she kept a close eye on him. But Lü Xiuran was too shrewd; he didn't reveal anything to Aunt Xi until their child started elementary school.
Aunt Xi eventually found an opportunity to go to another city for business, planning to go for a week, but in fact she bought a new ticket and flew back to Longcheng after the plane landed.
The person in charge of keeping an eye on Lü Xiuran also sent her a message: no sooner had she left than Lü Xiuran brought a woman home.
Yes, bring the person home.
This person probably thought that taking him to a hotel would leave a record, or that the most dangerous place was the safest place, which is why Aunt Xi caught him red-handed.
Divorce was inevitable, but what frustrated Aunt Xi was that her son kept complaining that she shouldn't have divorced him and kept speaking well of his father.
In the end, Aunt Xi even abandoned her child. Lu Xiuran still wanted half of Aunt Xi's property, but unfortunately, he had embezzled a lot of money from the company by taking advantage of his position. The reason they didn't send him to jail was because they didn't want the child to have a father who broke the law.
In the end, she only took one million, which was child support, paid in full by Aunt Xi.
