Chapter 415: Counterfeit
Mr. Zhong’s birthday party is approaching, and the Zhong family is also making preparations for this birthday party.
Since it wasn't a full birthday party, and Mr. Zhong didn't want to spend too much, the venue for this birthday party was set at the Zhong family. Furthermore, this time, only some business partners and family friends were invited, and no one else was invited.
Just when everyone was busy taking care of Mr. Zhong, Zhong Nian Yao took the opportunity to slip out because she had an appointment.
A moment later, in the coffee shop——
Zhong Nianyao and Chu Xu met, and this time, it was Zhong Nianyao who took the initiative to ask Chu Xu out.
Seeing Zhong Nian Yao coming, Chu Xu seemed very excited, but also a little restrained. He quickly stood up and was about to pull a chair for Zhong Nian Yao.
Zhong Nianyao waved her hand to refuse, then pulled out a chair and sat down. Her movements were smooth and elegant.
Chu Xu did not dare to delay any longer. After Zhong Nianyao sat down, he immediately poured her some tea. Then he asked curiously, "Miss Zhong, how come you have time to ask me out today?"
"Actually, I asked you out today because I want to confirm something with you." Zhong Nianyao didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly, "Are you really sure that Chu Yixue is the second daughter of your Chu family?"
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's question, Chu Xu was stunned for a moment, then scratched his hair, feeling a little strange. "Miss Zhong, what do you mean? Didn't you ask me this question before?"
"Chu Yixue didn't just take her back rashly. My uncle and aunt did a paternity test with her. So, they are very sure that she is their biological daughter."
"Really?" Zhong Nianyao raised her lips in a strange arc, "What if I tell you that Chu Yixue is not your cousin at all?"
"What?" Chu Xu subconsciously refuted, "That's impossible. Paternity tests are all done by hospitals that our Chu family is familiar with. There's no way they can be faked."
However, even though he said this, after hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, he still had a trace of uncertainty in his heart. He had witnessed Zhong Nianyao's abilities with his own eyes. Now that Zhong Nianyao said Chu Yixue was a fake, he couldn't help but start to doubt it.
"Of course, I wouldn't say anything casually about something like this." Zhong Nianyao smiled and continued, "There's no blood relationship between Chu Yixue and you. And—"
When she said this, her expression suddenly changed and she frowned. "I can tell from your face that one of your relatives has been in a bad state recently and may be seriously ill. If there is no improvement, you will soon experience the death of a relative."
"But no one at home is sick!" Chu Xu just opened his mouth and immediately stopped.
Because he remembered what Zhong Nianyao had just said, about his second cousin whom he might never have met.
For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He didn't know whether he should believe Zhong Nianyao's words, but at the same time he was worried. If what Zhong Nianyao said was true, then his real cousin really had an accident, what should he do?
"Take me to see your grandfather!" Zhong Nianyao said directly, "I think he should be able to make the decision."
After hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, Chu Xu immediately became energetic, "Yes, I can find grandpa."
Grandpa is still the head of the family now, so he must be informed of such a major matter. He should also make the final decision on any matter. With his small arms and shoulders, he simply can't bear such a responsibility!
Without any hesitation, Chu Xu immediately contacted the old man of the Chu family. However, he did not directly say that Chu Yixue was a fake, but only said that Zhong Nianyao wanted to meet him.
Having heard from Chu Xu how powerful Zhong Nianyao was before, the old man of the Chu family always held a sense of awe towards her. Even though she was just a junior, he would never dare to be arrogant. Now that he heard that Zhong Nianyao wanted to see him, although he didn't know what it was, he knew it must be very important.
Therefore, after receiving Chu Xu's call, Mr. Chu immediately agreed to meet, and he could meet at any time, getting better and better.
A moment later, the Chu family's driver came to pick up Zhong Nian Yao.
Chu Xu thought about it and got in the car with them. He also wanted to know what was going on with Chu Yixue. Also, where was his real cousin now?
The car arrived, and soon the driver took Zhong Nian Yao and Chu Xu to a high-end teahouse that was very hidden.
After entering the private room, they saw Mr. Chu sitting inside.
When Mr. Chu saw Zhong Nianyao, he didn't act arrogantly and immediately stood up, "Miss Zhong!"
Soon, the group sat down.
Chu Xu, who was in the lowest position in the private room, was very attentive and poured tea for Old Man Chu and Zhong Nian Yao.
Mr. Chu didn't even glance at Chu Xu, his attention was all on Zhong Nianyao, "Miss Zhong, is there something you want to talk to me about this time?"
When he heard that Zhong Nianyao was looking for him, he was very surprised. But he also knew that this must be no small matter, so he found this teahouse.
Chu Xu, who was standing aside, paused for a moment after hearing what Old Man Chu said, but did not answer.
It wasn't that he didn't want to answer, but he simply didn't know how to explain it. Furthermore, he only had a limited understanding of the subject, so even if he wanted to, he couldn't articulate it clearly.
Zhong Nianyao raised her head, looked directly at Old Man Chu, and spoke slowly, "Your second granddaughter Chu Yixue is fake, she is a counterfeit!"
“Snap—”
As Zhong Nianyao finished speaking, Old Man Chu was startled and his hand accidentally touched the cup on the table.
The cup fell to the ground with a crisp shattering sound, and the scalding hot tea spilled directly onto the ground. Fortunately, no one was burned.
Chu Xu, who was standing by, was startled by this sudden change, and immediately stood up and started to clean up.
The conversation they had here today was really not suitable for a fourth person to hear, so he could only clean up more diligently.
Mr. Chu didn't even glance at the mess he had caused. His gaze fell on Zhong Nianyao, and his expression became serious. "Miss Zhong, do you know what you are saying?"
He couldn't say whether he liked or disliked Chu Yixue, his granddaughter. But after all, he felt much more at ease because of her return. Because Chu Yixue's disappearance had always been a knot in the hearts of his eldest son and his wife!
