"Master Yun, gossiping can lead to legal consequences. You'd better think carefully before you speak."
"At my age, why would I slander someone's reputation? This matter has been weighing on my mind for so many years. Since you want to hear it, I'll let you know clearly. That year, I personally went to the Shen Group to deliver a cheongsam. Mr. Shen had ordered one for the old lady, and I asked Su Wan to deliver it for me. But my assistant made a mistake when packing it, so I drove there myself to exchange it. Just as I reached the office door, I heard a sound coming from the half-open door. I looked inside and saw Mr. Shen of the Shen Group embracing your mother..."
"That's impossible!" Lu Zhiwei's eyes reddened as she shook her head desperately.
Her mother was an incomparably sacred figure to her.
She could never do such a thing.
Moreover, she had an affair with Shen's father, who was already married at the time.
“What’s impossible about that? Shen Jinmo’s father was able to buy your mother a small villa twenty years ago. That alone proves that their relationship is very close. Besides, I have videos of their affair as evidence.” Lu Jingyao appeared in Yun Ruoyu’s studio at some point.
They must have been keeping an eye on Lu Zhiwei's whereabouts and deliberately timed their arrival.
Lu Jingyao opened the video and showed her phone to the group of people.
In the video, in a dimly lit room, Su Wan is pinned to the bed by her father. Su Wan is in a daze, and her dress has fallen down more than halfway, revealing her fair shoulders...
The video only lasted a few dozen seconds before it ended.
But adults can easily imagine what happened between the man and woman in bed next.
Shen Jinmo pursed his thin lips, his face gradually losing color, his fingers tightened, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
His dark eyes were filled with a terrifying ferocity, as if he wanted to tear the man and woman in the video to pieces.
"How could I, Yun Ruoyu, have taken on such a disciple? Get out of here!" Greatly disappointed, Yun Ruoyu turned and went into the house.
In the front hall, Lu Jingyao looked smugly at Shen Jinmo and Lu Zhiwei's successive injuries, her red lips curving slightly.
“I just went to the hospital to ask Dad if it was true. He admitted that he knew your mother, Su Wan, was having an affair with Shen Jinmo’s father, Shen Mo, which is why he chose to divorce your mother. Moreover, he has been targeting the Shen family and opposing them at every turn all these years because he was so angry about being cuckolded. He only felt better after Shen Mo died.”
At this point, Shen Jinmo suddenly strode up to Lu Jingyao, grabbed her arm, snatched the phone from her hand, and threw it forcefully onto the floor: "Shut up!"
Lu Jingyao's phone was smashed, but she didn't feel bad at all.
Compared to himself, Lu Zhiwei and Shen Jinmo in front of him must be in excruciating pain.
"Also, Dad said that the DNA test report that led to Lu Zhiwei being recognized as a member of the Lu family was fake, and that you are Chen Mo's bastard child, hahaha..."
Lu Jingyao laughed even more wildly, in a terrifying way.
A murderous intent flickered in Lu Zhiwei's bloodshot eyes.
She grabbed Lu Jingyao by the collar and shoved her against the wall behind her. "Lu Jingyao, your mother took the blame for you and begged me to let you go, that's why I didn't touch you. You better not mess with me."
“Everything I said is true, these are my father’s exact words. If you don’t believe me, go ask him yourself.”
A maniacal smile appeared in Lu Jingyao's eyes.
Lu Zhiwei forcefully threw her to the ground.
Frowning, she turned to Shen Jingmo, who was standing there in a daze, and said, "Come to the hospital with me."
"What are you doing?" Shen Jinmo's pupils were unfocused, as if he had lost his soul.
"Check DNA."
Before figuring out everything else, she had to figure this one thing out first.
What if what Lu Jingyao said is true?
She can no longer keep the baby in her belly.
“I won’t go. What if it is? How am I supposed to face you? How am I supposed to face the Shen family?”
Shen Jinmo turned and left.
Rather than confront the cruel reality, he chose to escape.
It is a fact that they were married once.
"Shen Jinmo, can you calm down? Everything should be based on scientific facts. What if Lu Yunsheng is just trying to play us?" Lu Zhiwei grabbed Shen Jinmo's arm.
She absolutely must not lose her composure; she must remain absolutely rational.
Shen Jinmo lowered his eyes and looked at the arm that she had taken the initiative to hold.
After the divorce, she never touched him again.
But the thought that they might be related made him feel disgusted and wanted to kill himself.
“You don’t have to go, but you can give me a single hair, and I’ll find out what happens next myself.”
Lu Zhiwei let go of him and turned to leave.
No one was more afraid of facing the final test results than she was.
A few minutes later.
Shen Jinmo followed Lu Zhiwei and accompanied her to the hospital.
They did not choose Lu Family Hospital because they were afraid that Lu Yunsheng would control the hospital and that the doctors would tamper with it.
Lu Zhiwei took Shen Jinmo to a private testing center for an expedited DNA test.
It will take eight hours to get the results.
The results won't be available until the next morning.
The two sat in the hospital corridor, watching all sorts of people.
“I believe my mother is not that kind of person.”
“I also believe that my dad is not that kind of person.”
The two people each have their own version of events.
"Then where is the problem?" Shen Jinmo asked her.
Lu Zhiwei bit her lip, her clear eyes slightly lowered.
She could not give Shen Jinmo an answer until the matter was thoroughly investigated.
She persevered until late at night, but Lu Zhiwei was so tired that she fell asleep on a bench.
Shen Jinmo gazed at Lu Zhiwei's sweet sleeping face, his fingers slowly reaching towards her cheek.
Mingming.
She is within reach.
But he no longer had the courage to approach her.
With great effort, Shen Jinmo took off his suit jacket, leaving Lu Zhiwei alone on the bench. He then left the hospital alone and smoked one cigarette after another all night in the designated smoking area.
After hoarseening his voice, Shen Jinmo finally took out his phone to prepare a backup plan.
If DNA testing proves they are related.
He wouldn't let this result appear in front of Lu Zhiwei.
Let him bear the consequences alone.
Even if he suffers a lifetime of entanglement and pain, it's still better than the two of them having to endure it together.
A grueling night has passed.
Dawn finally broke.
Lu Zhiwei was woken up by Shen Jinmo.
He was carrying a bag of breakfast he bought near the hospital, which included steamed buns and soy milk.
"Have some breakfast." Shen Jinmo hadn't slept all night; his eyes were dark and his face was exhausted.
Lu Zhiwei had no appetite. "I can't eat. Have the results come out yet?"
"It'll be soon."
"Mr. Shen, Ms. Lu, your DNA test results are ready. Please come and pick them up." A nurse came to inform them in person.
Lu Zhiwei quickly got up and followed the nurse to get the results.
