Chapter 148 Is it possible that it could be mine?
Assistant Qin on the other end of the phone was speechless. How could he be sure about something like this? Back then, the wife hadn't even divorced the boss yet. He should know better than anyone else whose child she was carrying.
However, he dared not say this aloud, and could only say, "At that time, Mr. Chen admitted it, and Miss Yun also said that it was his child."
He didn't know why Pei Jiuyan suddenly brought up the child again, but wasn't this matter already in the past? It had been so long, and President Pei hadn't mentioned it at all, so why was he suddenly asking about it today?
Something's not right.
Pei Jiuyan didn't express his feelings, but both Yun Zhaozhao and Chen Boxu seemed a bit off.
He hadn't been able to calmly think about this matter, mainly because he hadn't wanted to think that Yun Zhaozhao's child wasn't his business. But today, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that there were many loopholes in the whole thing.
Yun Zhaozhao could never possibly like Chen Boxu. If her child really is Chen Boxu's, then something must have happened that she didn't want to.
He knew the little princess's temper better than anyone else; she was absolutely vengeful. If Chen Boxu had really forced her, she would never have let him off so easily. However, now when she mentioned Chen Boxu, her expression was very indifferent, as if this person had nothing to do with her.
Moreover, Chen Boxu is acting strangely. If Xixi really is his child, he wouldn't not ask a single question.
It's not that Chen Boxu has any conscience, but that Chen Boxu would definitely use the child to threaten him.
Seeing that he remained silent, Assistant Qin said, "President Pei, now that the child has been born, if you want to confirm this issue, you can take a sample of the child's hair and Chen Boxu's hair for testing."
Pei Jiuyan hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to do it anyway.
He didn't care whose child Xixi was, but he had some inexplicable feelings about it, and he felt he had to figure it out.
The hair from the child's side is easy to collect. He holds the child every day, so cutting a couple of strands of hair is very easy. There are also people collecting hair from Chen Boxu's side.
Chen Boxu has a lot of mistresses. With their help, they can get anything, not just hair.
Pei Jiuyan entrusted this matter to Assistant Qin, and specifically instructed him to avoid the Zhou family's hospital to avoid being discovered.
Yun Zhaozhao noticed that Pei Jiuyan had been acting strangely these past two days. He often stared blankly at Xixi, seemingly lost in thought.
"Pei Jiuyan, have you done something again?"
Yun Zhaozhao asked.
Pei Jiuyan was about to shake his head subconsciously when he heard Yun Zhaozhao say, "Think it over before you answer me."
Pei Jiuyan sighed: "Yes, I'm investigating something recently, but I don't want to talk about it right now."
He didn't want to lie to Yun Zhaozhao, but he didn't dare to tell her either.
Hearing him say that, Yun Zhaozhao's expression softened a bit. She glanced at him and said, "Don't do anything bad."
"no."
"I turned down all those things."
"By the way, besides a mine, I think I also own a farm and a winery abroad, including a vineyard. The grapes are ripe there now, would you like to go and take a look?"
Pei Jiuyan didn't want Yun Zhaozhao to keep asking, so she changed the subject.
How much wealth do you actually own?
Yun Zhaozhao frowned.
She thought she had already taken almost everything from Pei Jiuyan, but now it seems that it was just the tip of the iceberg.
Pei Jiuyan said something that made you want to punch someone.
"have no idea."
"I only found out because they notified me this time."
He couldn't possibly have that much energy to manage it all, so he put many of them in trust.
The last divorce involved liquidating domestic assets, and he only just found out now that he has so many assets overseas. Not to mention houses, he owns several wineries, farms, and mines, as well as a small island. However, that island is registered under Yun Zhaozhao's name, but Yun Zhaozhao is unaware of it. Apparently, it was a birthday gift he planned to give to Yun Zhaozhao, but before her birthday even arrived, they broke up.
He only learned about these things recently when someone contacted his assistant, who then told him.
He then asked his assistant, Qin, to check the overseas funds, only to discover that it was a huge sum.
When he learned that he possessed so much, he was not happy, but afraid. With such a vast fortune, he worried that he might have done other things.
He didn't want anything to happen; Xixi was so cute, and there was Yun Zhaozhao too...
If he weren't by Yun Zhaozhao's side, who knows how many suitors would be around her, or even people with ill intentions like Huang Chao.
Yun Zhaozhao didn't know what he was thinking. After listening to him recount his assets, she took a deep breath and said:
“Pei Jiuyan, there’s a reason why Zhou Xiao has always disliked you. You really deserve a beating.”
She had never lacked money since childhood, and her bank account had never been less than eight figures, but she was still shocked by Pei Jiuyan's extravagance.
"So, when you divorced me, you gave me the money so readily, but it didn't really hurt you at all."
She genuinely thought she had completely exploited him.
"I was wrong."
Pei Jiuyan quickly replied, "I'll have Assistant Qin sort out my overseas assets tomorrow and transfer them all to your name."
"No, I can't afford that. Who knows where you got those things?"
Yun Zhaozhao's casual remark left Pei Jiuyan speechless, because he himself felt guilty, as he didn't even know where many of his things came from.
Fortunately, Yun Zhaozhao didn't ask any further questions.
And soon, news came from Assistant Qin's side.
"President Pei, the report is out."
"How about it?"
Pei Jiuyan's voice sounded somewhat urgent.
"According to the test, the child is not related to Chen Boxu by blood."
Assistant Qin found it unbelievable when he said it. Like everyone else, he thought that Yun Zhaozhao's child was Chen Boxu's. He was the one who investigated the matter. He saw the surveillance footage and confirmed that Yun Zhaozhao went to Chen Boxu's room and didn't come out all night, only emerging near dawn.
He had been feeling sorry for Pei Jiuyan, thinking it was unfair that she was a friend of Pei Jiuyan. He thought it would be fine if it were anyone else, but it just so happened that Pei Jiuyan was the one who was in the situation.
Who knew that the child wasn't Chen Boxu's?
"Mr. Pei, whose child is Miss Yun?"
Assistant Qin couldn't help but ask.
"You're asking me? Who should I ask?"
Pei Jiuyan had already accepted the news, but he felt something was off. He felt something was wrong with both Yun Zhaozhao and Chen Boxu.
After a while, Pei Jiuyan suddenly said, "Do you think it's possible that it could be mine?"
