As Ni Sitian lowered her head to drink, her eyes involuntarily glanced at Xu Haicheng, her expression complex.
Xu Haicheng noticed Ni Sitian looking at him and laughed, "This wine doesn't taste right?"
Ni Sitian quickly averted her gaze and shook her head.
"This wine has quite a kick; you have to savor it slowly." Xu Haicheng knew his daughter-in-law liked red wine; she was clearly someone who got drunk easily, but she was very straightforward when it came to drinking.
"Thank you, Dad, I understand." Ni Sitian still felt awkward, so her voice was softer than usual.
Xu Haicheng felt something was off; Ni Sitian seemed to have become much more distant from him.
Perhaps it's because we haven't seen each other for a long time.
Xu Haicheng lowered his head and sipped his wine, not thinking about it any further.
Ni Sitian was trying to figure out how to get Xu Haicheng's hair.
To test for DNA, you need at least five to ten hairs, and naturally shed hairs are not acceptable; the hair follicles must be removed.
She is Xu Haicheng's daughter-in-law, so it's impossible for her to pluck her father-in-law's gray hairs.
Getting a hair sample is difficult, but drawing blood is even more difficult; it's not enough to just get a drop or two, you need at least a whole syringe.
It's all too difficult; if it's not explained clearly, it's simply impossible to do.
Ni Sitian became more and more troubled the more she thought about it.
Actually, on the day she returned with Li Yinan, she had asked him for help on the plane, but he replied that he couldn't do it. What kind of status does Xu Haicheng have? Pulling his hair is like pulling a tiger's whiskers; it's not something that can be done without anyone noticing.
It wouldn't be easy to injure or bleed him, as he had many bodyguards, all of whom were elite troops.
Only because she is his daughter-in-law can he be considered relatively close to her.
Also because of this identity, they can't get too close.
"What are you thinking about?" Xu Tingchuan placed a cup of yogurt in front of Ni Sitian and said, "You've been lost in thought ever since we finished eating."
Ni Sitian sat on the sofa in the room, took the yogurt from Xu Tingchuan, took a sip, and said, "I see that my father-in-law has a lot more gray hair."
“Yes, so much happened from January to March last year.” Xu Tingchuan sighed softly, sat down next to Ni Sitian, hugged her from behind, and rested his chin on her shoulder. “Fortunately, it’s all over now.”
Ni Sitian put down her yogurt cup, turned to look at Xu Tingchuan, and said, "I'm sorry for making you so sad."
Xu Tingchuan shook his head: "It's all in the past. You're not allowed to leave my side again."
"Mmm." Ni Sitian's cheek was pressed against Xu Tingchuan's hair, soft yet slightly prickly.
Actually, it's not necessary to test her and Xu Haicheng's results; Xu Tingchuan's could also be tested. However, she had already checked, and testing half-siblings would be difficult, and the accuracy rate of the diagnosis wouldn't be as high as testing with Xu Haicheng.
She didn't want to get an ambiguous answer, which would leave her feeling uneasy, so it was best to get Xu Haicheng's DNA.
"You're daydreaming again." Xu Tingchuan was a little annoyed by her absent-mindedness, so he pulled her closer and kissed her neck.
Ni Sitian stepped aside. Before that matter was settled, she felt awkward and strange about being intimate with him.
"I'm going to give Tuantuan a bath!" Ni Sitian got up and hurried to the crib in the room, but Tuantuan was already asleep and not cooperating at all.
Xu Tingchuan had already sensed Ni Sitian's evasiveness, so he got up and walked over, pulling her into his arms again. He said in a low, husky voice, "Tuantuan already washed yesterday. It's winter now, so there's no need to wash every day. Why don't you help me wash?"
