Chapter 13



The door of the reception room was closed. Lu Tianchen adjusted the blinds to closed and turned around.

The man had no expression on his face. He walked slowly to the opposite side of Dr. Ran, sat down on the sofa, and then spoke lightly:

"The results are out?"

Dr. Ran, who had been feeling anxious all morning, also sat down and handed over the document bag.

"Yes, the results are in there."

He didn't know who the two samples his boss gave him belonged to, he only knew the results...

“…Based on the existing data and DNA analysis results, it is ruled out that specimen 1 is the biological father of specimen 2.”

The moment he saw this line of text, Lu Tianchen felt his heart skip a beat, and his head felt like he was punched by his coach when he first learned boxing. He subconsciously tightened his expression, not revealing any clues, put the file back, and looked up at Dr. Ran.

"Are you sure there is no problem with the results? Are they the two samples I gave you?"

Lu Tianchen thought he had covered it up, but in fact the murderous look in his eyes almost scared Dr. Ran to death. Dr. Ran gritted his teeth and nodded.

“You can’t go wrong.”

Lu Tian was silent for a moment and put the document down.

"Don't mention this to anyone, understand?"

Doctor Ran looked serious.

"Don't worry, I have done several tests and all the useless samples have been destroyed."

Even though he was a private doctor, he had professional ethics and would not say anything when it came to other people's privacy. Moreover, he really didn't know who the two samples belonged to.

Let Dr. Ran leave first. Lu Tianchen felt a little confused and had a headache.

That little idiot, does he know about this...

An Xing didn't know that his brother Chen was worried about the results of the appraisal. He used his brother Chen's card to have a team building with his colleagues in Lu's cafeteria. Everyone tacitly didn't mention what happened just now, just talked about some small talk and gossip, and the meal was very harmonious.

After eating and drinking, An Xing began to feel sleepy. When Xiao Rui finished talking to others and turned around, he saw the young boy slumped in the chair, his eyes were about to close, but he was trying to keep them open, looking dazed.

Xiao Rui was a little speechless. The afternoon meeting would not start until an hour and a half later, so they should find a place to take a lunch break.

An Xing was almost asleep, and when Xiao Rui woke her up, she groaned in her chair. Just as she was struggling to wake up, a gentle female voice came.

"Mr. An? Do you want to rest?"

An Xing looked back in confusion and took two glances before recognizing him.

"Ah, you're the lady in the elevator this morning."

Looking closely at this round-faced, curly-haired boy, his skin was so white that you could hardly see his pores. His naturally smiling lips curled up in a beautiful arc. His light brown almond eyes were filled with sleepy water, as if they were wet and small animals begging for caress. When the staff looked at this face, they felt a motherly love that they had never felt before.

"Yes, Mr. An, I am an employee of Lu's." The staff member said softly, "Have you eaten enough? Mr. Lu has told us to open a special meeting room for you to rest. Please follow me."

An Xing's eyes widened.

Oh my god, Brother Chen not only takes care of the meals, but also the lunch break! I am touched!

The boy remembered something and looked back at his colleagues who were looking at him with sharp eyes.

"Is the conference room big? My colleague..."

The staff member smiled and said, "Of course it's big. It's big enough for you and your colleagues to rest together."

Everyone cheered and came over to pat shoulders and pinch faces.

“Our stars are awesome!”

An Xing's face turned red from being rubbed, and he hid behind Xiao Rui with his hands covering his face before he could catch his breath. The group followed the staff to the empty meeting room. There were many chairs in the meeting room. Those who wanted to sleep could lie on the table to sleep, or put a few chairs together to sleep lying down. Those who didn't want to sleep could sit next to them and play with their phones quietly.

After waking up, An Xing stretched and found Xiao Rui playing with his phone next to him. Seeing that he was awake, Xiao Rui asked in a low voice:

"Who was that person who greeted you before dinner?"

An Xing was stunned for a moment. During the week of internship with Xiao Rui, he found that this young designer had a cold personality. He had no interest in the gossips that other colleagues talked about in their spare time, and he didn't like to inquire about other people's private affairs.

This was the first time that Xiao Rui cared about something other than his work.

"It's my roommate, Su Yiran."

Although he didn't know the reason, An Xing still answered obediently.

"You have a good relationship with him?"

"I used to think so, but now..."

An Xing curled her lips and suddenly felt like talking.

"He doesn't like me at all, but he pretends to like me and that we are good friends, and he even schemes against me behind my back... Why does he do this? It's so meaningless."

An Xing himself couldn't understand this behavior. He had always liked whoever he liked and stayed away from whoever he hated, except for An Hao and Ning Rong - An Hao was a relative, and Ning Rong was someone he felt sorry for.

An Xing didn't understand why Su Yiran, who clearly didn't like him, had to come closer to him with a shameless face.

"Because there is profit in you, this is normal."

Xiao Rui didn't think there was anything incomprehensible about this, and thought that the boss's stupid son was indeed stupid.

"Your background destined you to be surrounded by people with ulterior motives. You should have seen many of them since you were a child."

An Xing became even more unhappy.

Of course he has seen it many times, but isn't it because he was blind in the past and truly regarded Su Yiran as a friend that he is frustrated now?

The boy looked a little pitiful with his head down, but Xiao Rui was very cold and unmoved.

"He is now interning in the design department of Weiqing Jewelry Company? That company has plagiarism issues. If you want to protect your reputation, you'd better have less contact with him in the future."

An Xing's eyes widened: "Really?!"

Xiao Rui nodded.

Chaos exists in all walks of life, especially in the past few years when the concept of intellectual property rights was not deeply rooted in people's minds and policies and regulations were not strict enough. In the past, some jewelry companies thought that it was better to bring in popular ideas from abroad and use them with a little modification instead of spending time on designing, which was profitable and convenient.

That's how Weiqing Jewelry rose to prominence. With the tightening of regulations in recent years, the old way of doing things could no longer work, so Weiqing Jewelry started to set up a design department. But outsiders can't see it, but experienced insiders can still see that their jewelry has traces of plagiarism and imitation.

In the design industry, plagiarism is a taboo, and designers with a conscience despise this behavior. If a designer is found to have plagiarized, no formal company will hire him in his lifetime.

An Xing hesitated and said, "Su Yiran is just doing an internship, he probably hasn't done anything like this yet..."

"It's not too late." Xiao Rui glanced at the boy and said, "Do you think your friend can't find anything?"

...Probably not. Su Yiran has always had a sharp eye, and he is quite ambitious in his profession, and his ambition is not entirely aboveboard.

An Xing closed his mouth.

If Su Yiran had been sincere to him, he would have advised him to change his internship company, after all, a good environment is also very important. But now An Xing knows that Su Yiran has never regarded him as a friend. Not only did he team up with An Hao to plot against him secretly, but he also took advantage of him in his previous life.

Therefore, An Xing didn't bother to care about the consequences of his actions.

The boy stretched himself and went to attend the afternoon training session with his colleagues without any hesitation.

Perhaps because he was very embarrassed to be rejected by An Xing at noon, Su Yiran neither sent a WeChat message nor talked to him again. An Xing listened to a lot of speeches and exchanges from designers from other companies and felt that he had gained a lot. After the exchange meeting was over, he went to Lu Tianchen's office and waited for the man to get off work so that they could have dinner together.

Lu Tianchen has been uneasy since he got the result. Sometimes he wondered if An Xing had deliberately asked him to do the test, and sometimes he wondered if An Xing had given him the wrong hair. He was more troubled than dealing with an acquisition case, but he saw the boy coming to him for dinner without any worries.

Sighing, the man decided to eat with the little fool first and talk about it after they were done.

"Brother Chen, are you worried about something? You seem absent-minded the whole time."

After eating until he was 70% full, An Xing put down his chopsticks and looked at the man.

Lu Tianchen subconsciously denied: "I have nothing on my mind."

"You did. You didn't even eat a few bites of your favorite baby cabbage, kelp seedlings, and ox brains. You even added two spoons of coriander when you were making the sauce!"

An Xing was very serious.

Lu Tianchen: “…”

Some little fools look silly and can't remember anything, but in fact they can even remember the weird little eating habits of their close ones clearly.

Lu Tianchen sighed slightly and put down his chopsticks. When he looked at An Xing again, he wanted to make a serious expression, but he didn't want to scare the little fool, so he could only take out the briefcase with a little embarrassment.

"Paternity test. I asked someone to prepare a report for you. It's just..."

Lu Tianchen thought about it, but couldn’t bring himself to say it.

"Maybe there is some misunderstanding between Uncle An and Aunt Shen."

An Xing: ???
