Chapter 1239: Chapter 1239: Conduct the Paternity Test Again
Bai Family had encountered so issues, and she vaguely knew a thing or two about them. So ti ago in Jin City, the dia had made a big fuss over the Bai Family’s affairs.
She didn’t understand business very well, only knowing that it seed to involve Bai Xuan being suspected of money laundering, among other things.
But, next to the Shen Family, Bai Family’s status in C City was untouchable. Who would dare to move against the Bai Family…
“Aran.” Jiang Zhilan turned her head and called out.
But, as soon as she turned her head, her whole body stiffened, her spine rigid, and her lips faintly trembling.
“I’ve brought her here,” Zhou Ran said calmly, her face showing no expression.
Xu Chaomu could barely recognize Jiang Zhilan, who had changed so much from before. Gone was her forr radiance, her complexion now dull and her features gaunt.
“Did you tell her?” Jiang Zhilan remained silent for a long ti before she slowly spoke.
“Not yet,” Zhou Ran said.
“What exactly do you want to say?” Xu Chaomu frowned.
She didn’t want to stay in this place, feeling like a little rabbit, hoodwinked and knowing nothing.
“Xu Chaomu, you must really want to know who your father is,” Jiang Zhilan began, “I know, and I can tell you.”
“Why did you bring in circles here to tell ? What if I say I’m not interested?” Xu Chaomu said.
“Since you’re here, I won’t let you leave empty-handed. Even if you’re not interested, I will still tell you.” Jiang Zhilan had made up her mind to tell Xu Chaomu, and at the sa ti, it was inevitable to require sothing from Xu Chaomu.
Xu Chaomu’s heart was almost leaping out. In this quiet place, she could hear her own heartbeat.
What on earth were they going to tell her…
“Xu Chaomu, do you believe it? You and Manman are sisters with the sa father but different mothers,” Jiang Zhilan said calmly, but her eyes were fixed on Xu Chaomu.
“What did you say?” Like a sudden wake-up call, Xu Chaomu was completely stunned.
Sisters? Sa father but different mothers?
Does that an she is Bai Xuan’s daughter?!
How could that be, how could she be Bai Xuan’s daughter? She couldn’t even clearly rember what Bai Xuan looked like…
And, why would she have any connection to Bai Man? She really disliked that woman, very much.
She still rembered the incident when Bai Man almost crushed her Wealth to death, how she hugged Wealth, mourning, wishing she had hit Bai Man a few more tis.
Now, Jiang Zhilan was telling her, that she and Bai Man were sisters with the sa father but different mothers? Bai Man was her sister? Hah… What a joke.
“I said, you are Bai Xuan’s daughter,” Jiang Zhilan said calmly.
She observed every expression on Xu Chaomu, clearly seeing how shocked Xu Chaomu was with the answer!
There was nothing around her to clutch, Xu Chaomu could only cross her arms, anxiously intertwining her hands.
“What else do you want to deceive with? I’ve been deceived once, do you think I’ll believe you again? I don’t have a father, my father has long been dead!” Xu Chaomu cried out.
“Xu Chaomu,” Zhou Ran walked up to her, “The blood used for the last paternity test was donated by Bai Xuan for Cexian, and you’ve seen the results many tis. You don’t need to lie to yourself.”
“You are all liars. I don’t believe it, not at all. Aunt Zhou, from the first day I knew you, you’ve been lying to , so, do you think I will believe you?”
“Whether you believe it or not, the fact remains.” Zhou Ran said, “Your father, he’s still alive.”
“No, he’s already dead!”
Xu Chaomu shrieked hysterically at them, her head aching terribly. Each word spoken by Zhou Ran and Jiang Zhilan felt like strands of silk, tightly entwining around her heart, seizing her brain.
Her entire being was suffocating, especially in the sealed and narrow space of the prison.
“Xu Chaomu, you should calm down a bit, this is the truth, you have to face it,” Zhou Ran said.
“Why tell ? Why tell now?” Xu Chaomu asked coldly.
Suddenly, she seed to understand sothing.
Shen Chi had said that his ti spent with Bai Man last year was just for show, and then, the Bai Family collapsed.
Upon further thought, who would dare to target the Bai Family, if not for Shen Chi?
And now, they were telling her this secret, how “thoughtful” they were.
“This secret could not have been kept from you forever,” Zhou Ran said.
Xu Chaomu asked another question, “Does Shen Chi know?”
“He does not.”
Xu Chaomu gave a bitter smile, suddenly seeming to breathe a sigh of relief. Thankfully he didn’t know…
It appeared… she cared more about that.
Silence followed, another quiet stillness.
Jiang Zhilan looked at Xu Chaomu, unsure what to say. It seed Shen Chi hadn’t told Xu Chaomu about the things he had done to her, but can a secret be contained forever?
Would Xu Chaomu actually help her, would she help the Bai Family?
“If you have sothing to say, just say it,” Xu Chaomu had cald down considerably. She looked at Zhou Ran, “Aunt Zhou, since the first ti we t, you’ve had ulterior motives towards . Now, what are you trying to use for? It seems I still have so value to you.”
“Think what you like,” Zhou Ran said indifferently, “I’d rather have never t you and never made that decision I regret.”
“It was I who asked Aran to bring you here,” Jiang Zhilan spoke up, “I have sothing to tell you.”
“Are you asking for my help? Sorry, even if I am Bai Xuan’s daughter, he never fulfilled a father’s responsibilities for a single day! In my heart, my father is long since dead. Also, I don’t like the Bai Family, whether it’s Bai Xuan, you, or Bai Man, I dislike you all!”
“You can’t deny blood ties!” Jiang Zhilan said.
“What does it matter if I deny them? I don’t want to see Bai Xuan!” Xu Chaomu said, “Do you want to beg Shen Chi? Why don’t you ask this woman by my side to beg him? She is, after all, Shen Chi’s biological mother.”
Disdain flashed across Xu Chaomu’s face, but she was rely hiding her heartache and pain.
She strived to keep herself calm, trying to face these so-called elders.
Hearing Xu Chaomu’s words, Jiang Zhilan’s face showed a hint of embarrassnt. So, Xu Chaomu had already guessed it.
Zhou Ran too, remained silent, silently crossing her arms.
“Let’s end today’s matters here, I don’t want to talk anymore,” Xu Chaomu was weary, “I will not help you. You better pray that Bai Man doesn’t appear in front of , otherwise, I will tear her apart.”
Jiang Zhilan was taken aback. She did not expect the gentle and kind Xu Chaomu to say such words.
“Xu Chaomu, do we need to do another paternity test for you to face reality?” Zhou Ran said calmly.
“If I had no connection to Shen Chi, would you have chosen to tell this fact? Jiang Zhilan, Madam Jiang, you’re as selfish as Bai Man. If you weren’t trapped, you probably would have never let know about this, right? If I knew, wouldn’t there be another daughter to compete with you for the inheritance?” Xu Chaomu’s smile was very cold.
