Chapter 215 Whose Child Am I?
Xiang Jingheng sat on the sofa for a long time, feeling as if his brain had shut down.
Otherwise, how could he not understand what Yu Yan was saying?
How could Xiang Chu suddenly become Mei Nansheng's son?
But hadn't he already had that thought?
Xiang Jingheng stood there dumbfounded, and Yu Yan didn't pay him any attention right away. Together with Shao Muyan, she sent all the photos to Nan Song. Since Mei Nan had already gone deep into the tiger's den, it meant that their first step of the plan had been successful.
However, it came at a terrible price.
Even though Yu Yan appeared calm when posting the photos, her hands were still ice-cold and trembling.
"I'll do it." Shao Muyan took Yu Yan's hand at the right moment and communicated with Nan Song.
Nan Song hacked into Xiang Jingheng's computer system in front of him and said somewhat embarrassedly to Xiang Jingheng in front of the camera: "Mr. Xiang, this is an emergency, please forgive my rudeness. Give us the photos, and the chip is yours."
Xiang Jingheng suddenly looked up.
After finishing speaking, the video call ended.
The computer system has also returned to normal.
Xiang Jingheng's expression never returned to normal after receiving those photos.
Have you calmed down?
Yu Yan looked at Xiang Jingheng's pale face, sighed softly, and nudged Shao Muyan, asking him to pour him a glass of water.
Xiang Jingheng took the water and drank it all in one gulp.
He gripped his cup, his eyes red as he looked at the people opposite him, his voice hoarse: "Now that things have come to this, there's no need for you to hide anything from me anymore. Tell me everything about Mei Nan, Xiang Chu, and... about you."
Xiang Jingheng said the last half of the sentence while looking at Yu Yan.
Yu Yan no longer intended to hide anything.
"I'll make this short."
Yu Yan glanced at Shao Muyan, "You fill in the missing parts."
Shao Muyan nodded: "Okay."
Looking at the two people sitting together, perfectly in sync, Xiang Jingheng had no more thoughts in his heart.
There wasn't even a trace of extra emotion left.
Right now, all he wants is to find out the truth!
“This story goes back six years,” Yu Yan paused, “almost seven years now.”
She looked at Xiang Jingheng and said, "Do you still remember the place where the accident happened back then? It was at the Donglong Hotel, right?"
Xiang Jingheng felt as if his heart had been squeezed hard.
Yu Yan was referring to the place where they first had sex.
"Of course I remember."
After Xiang Jingheng finished speaking, his brow twitched suddenly. "Don't tell me that the person that night wasn't you?"
"Of course it wasn't me."
Yu Yan frowned: "If it were me, how could Xiang Chu become Mei Nan's child?"
Am I stupid?
Xiang Jingheng: "..."
He was speechless for a moment, then said in a muffled voice, "Go on."
"That night was my graduation farewell dinner with Mei Nan. I was forced to drink a lot of alcohol and got drunk. Something was laced with my drink; it was Mei Nan who did it."
Yu Yan's voice was relatively calm, but with a hint of coldness, "That day, besides me, you were also drugged."
She then looked at Shao Muyan, who added, "Me too."
"..."
Hua Zhidao and Song Cheng, who were watching from the sidelines, both sighed inwardly upon hearing this.
They really caught them all in one fell swoop.
"You already know Mei Nan's identity."
Yu Yan glanced at the note that Xiang Jingheng had crumpled up. "She is Mei's biological daughter, you can tell from her appearance. The following are just our guesses, take them with a grain of salt."
Xiang Jingheng listened silently to Yu Yan's story.
Despite the fact that he had grown up alongside Mei Nan and witnessed her transformation firsthand, there were still many aspects of Mei Nan that Yu Yan described that he didn't know about.
He knew that Mei Nan came from a poor family, otherwise her mother would not have come to the Xiang family to work as a maid.
But he didn't know that Aunt Mei came to the Xiang family as a maid not only to earn money, but also to steal the research and development secrets of Xiang's Technology... Now that he thinks about it, the previous technological crises of Xiang's Technology were all related to Aunt Mei.
You can guard against thieves day and night, but it's hard to guard against thieves within your own household.
He knew that Mei Nan's father had died the year she graduated from high school, supposedly by drowning. But Xiang Jingheng had heard some gossip from the servants that the man Mei Nan had found was a scoundrel who not only beat his wife but also his children.
He didn't know that the man wasn't Mei Nan's biological father at all, but just a puppet, a front.
He was unaware that the man's drowning was not an accident, but rather a murder.
And there are many, many secrets.
"That night, the four of us were at the Donglong Hotel, and Mei Nan personally directed a play."
Yu Yan continued, "Uncle Yan and I were led into a room by her, while she went into your room."
Xiang Jingheng's pupils suddenly contracted.
“I think you haven’t slept with Mei Nan again.”
Yu Yan looked directly into Jing Heng's eyes and said bluntly, "If any two of the four of us slept together again, the truth of what happened back then would have been exposed much sooner, instead of dragging on for so long now."
Xiang Jingheng's heart tightened, and he gripped his knees tightly.
He understood Yu Yan's implication, and looking at her and Shao Muyan, his Adam's apple bobbed.
"So, you two... discovered this secret after you had sex?"
Hua Zhidao and Song Cheng also looked at them curiously.
"no."
Yu Yan and Shao Muyan shook their heads at the same time.
Shao Muyan said, "We noticed it before this. Do you remember what Dr. Su said in Mesuli?"
Xiang Jingheng nodded: "I remember."
He pondered it for a long time after returning from that trip, but he didn't find anything wrong with it.
Shao Muyan asked, "After returning from Mesopotamia, did you go to the DNA testing center to have your and Xiang Chu's DNA tested again?"
Xiang Jingheng glanced at Yu Yan subconsciously, a hint of unease flashing across his face.
But now that he knows Xiang Chu wasn't born to Yu Yan, there's nothing to feel awkward about anymore.
“You’ve tested it too,” he said.
"yes."
Shao Muyan nodded, "I had my DNA tested and found that we are biological father and son."
Even though he already knew this fact, Xiang Jingheng's eyelashes still trembled.
“Like you, I never thought of testing Yu Yan.” Shao Muyan looked at Yu Yan.
Xiang Jingheng was suddenly taken aback.
Yes, he has tested his own and Xiang Chu's so many times, why didn't he think of testing Xiang Chu and Yu Yan's as well?
Who would have thought that the child wasn't the mother's biological child?
"So," Xiang Jingheng looked at them, "you've tested Yu Yan and Shao Yun?"
"right."
The decision was final.
Xiang Jingheng leaned back on the sofa, his expression blank.
Facts speak louder than words; in the face of science, all doubts become theorems.
"The two children were switched by Mei Nan?"
Xiang Jingheng's eyes reddened again.
"Yes." Yu Yan's eyes also reddened. Even though she had accepted the fact, she still couldn't suppress the heartache when talking about it.
“The baby was secretly switched by Mei Nan as soon as it was born. When I woke up, Shao Yun had become Xiang Chu.”
Yu Yan felt a chill run down her spine. "I became Xiang Chu's mother, while Shao Yun was thrown into an orphanage."
Snap!
The phone fell to the floor.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Xiang Chu standing barefoot at the corner, looking at them with a deathly pale face.
"Tell me, whose child am I?"
