Chapter 155: Paternity Test
Shen Xiaoxiao frowned. This An Ning was Huo Wanting’s biological daughter. Who didn’t know that the Ouyang family only had two sons and a daughter? The only legitimate daughter, Ouyang Ning, was actually not liked by her mother? What kind of international joke was this?
“I don’t know about that, but Weiwei, you have so many channels. You can go and check it out. Don’t forget to let me know when the time comes. Alright, the gossip is almost over. Let’s go, we’ll have tea another day!”
Huang Yueyan suddenly came and left, leaving Shen Xiaoxiao sitting there deep in thought. She even began to speculate about the hidden story of the Ouyang family, could it be that An Ning was Ouyang Jincheng’s illegitimate daughter and was brought into the Ouyang family to be raised by his wife, Huo Wanting, which was why Huo Wanting hated her so much?
Otherwise, why would her biological mother hate her so much?
But just as she thought of this, Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to slap herself. Didn’t she also have a biological mother who hated her so much?
However, Gu Yuehua hated her because she wanted to take over all the properties of the Shen family because of money. But what about the Ouyang family? What about the Ouyang family?
At this moment, Shen Xiaoxiao couldn’t wait to get someone to take a closer look, but she knew that she couldn’t. Last time, when she wanted to investigate the Ouyang family, Yan Kuan immediately found out and even warned her. If she were to investigate Miss Ouyang again this time, it was obvious that Yan Kuan would definitely disagree.
What secrets did the Ouyang family have, and why did Yan Kuan never allow her to investigate everything about the Ouyang family?
She was confused, really confused…
Since she couldn’t figure it out, Shen Xiaoxiao no longer forced herself to think about it. She simply prepared to go out for a walk. 19 followed behind her as usual. Yan Kuan went out early in the morning and told Shen Xiaoxiao that he wouldn’t be back tonight.
Every month at the beginning of the month, Yan Kuan would go out once. It was as short as one day and as long as three days. Every time he came back, he was exhausted.
She had never seen this man show any signs of fatigue. However, every time he came back at the beginning of the month, there was a hint of sadness between his brows.
She thought that she actually knew this man quite well. At least, she could easily tell whether this man was angry or happy. Or, even though he was clearly smiling, she could also feel the loneliness in his heart.
As she strolled along the streets, the warm sunlight of early spring shone on her lazily. She even felt a little drowsy.
She deliberately chose the place where the sunlight shone on to walk, avoiding those dark places. After being reborn, she enjoyed the warmth of the sunlight on her body more than anyone else.
This made her feel inexplicably real and inexplicably at ease!
“It’s him? Why did he return to the country?”
Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect to see someone she was familiar with when she was out for a walk. It was Pei Xi, the Second Young Master of the Pei family.
Actually, Shen Xiaoxiao had only seen Pei Xi three times in her life. One time was during Shen Xiaoxiao’s annulment ceremony, one time was during Pei Dongguo’s 80th birthday banquet, and the other time was at the entrance of a hospital.
The three times they met were all in a hurry. Shen Xiaoxiao did not know much about Pei Xi. The only thing she remembered was that this was the only young man in the entire Pei family who had never looked down on her.
He had always lived abroad and was not valued by the Pei family. At that time, she had even overheard Pei Meimei saying that Pei Xi had almost been passed on to Pei Tianai. The great aunt of the Pei family had never married in her entire life. She did not know the reason and had never returned to the country. She was an invisible figure in the entire upper-class society.
Pei Xi was a very clean person. At the very least, compared to the other two members of the Pei family, Pei Xi was much cleaner.
The last time she saw Pei Xi at the entrance of the hospital, Pei Xi was even very attentive and patient in helping an old lady whose legs were inconvenient. Hence, Shen Xiaoxiao’s feelings towards Pei Xi were very complicated.
If Pei Xi was a sunny sunflower, then she, Shen Xiaoxiao, was a moss that grew in a dark crevice. One was dazzling and brilliant, while the other could not see the light of day.
Shen Xiaoxiao was actually very envious of such a young man. But now, after experiencing so much, Shen Xiaoxiao only viewed Pei Xi from the perspective of a bystander. Of course, if someone had to take charge of the Pei family business… Of course, Shen Xiaoxiao would choose Pei Xi without the slightest hesitation.
Swallow the Pei Corporation? Of course, that was good. But Shen Xiaoxiao also knew that she could not do it so far. Not only for now, but she would also have to work hard for at least another ten years. Perhaps then she would have this possibility.
“19, did Pei Xi suddenly come back because of the paternity test?”
As a senior encyclopedia, 19 naturally quickly reported everything he knew.
“Miss, Pei Xi suddenly came back because of the paternity test, and the results were out an hour ago.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned. It really came out? She immediately asked 19 curiously, “Hurry up, tell me, tell me, what’s the result?”
19 saw how curious and interested the Miss was, and how she was completely different from the dead and lost in her thoughts just now. As expected, the Miss loved to gossip about the feuds of the rich and powerful.
“Other than the Second Young Master of the Pei family, Pei Xi, Pei Li, Pei Meimei, and Pei Tianheng are not related by blood at all.”
“Ah? Hahaha, hahahaha, it’s actually like this, it’s actually like this. Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter, I’m dying of laughter.”
“Miss, I think you’ll be more interested in listening to the next report.”
Shen Xiaoxiao stopped bursting into laughter and said to 19, “Is there anything more hilarious than this? Pei Li is an illegitimate child. Just thinking about this makes me laugh.”
19 was speechless, but he still reported everything that his boss had told him, “Miss, Pei Li and Pei Meimei’s biological father is Ouyang Jinming. The parent-child report also came out this afternoon.”
“What?”
Sure enough, her laughter was stuck in her throat. This Pei Li was actually a member of the Ouyang family? How, how was this possible? Didn’t they say that the children of close relatives were all deformed? Pei Li and Pei Meimei were not deformed either. On the contrary, they were both very smart.
Shen Xiaoxiao did not know that her question had already been voiced out. 19 looked at the Young Miss with a dumbfounded expression. Could it be that the Young Miss did not even know about this?
“Young Miss, even though the probability of the children of close relatives being deformed is high, they are not all deformed. Moreover, they are usually divided into two levels. They are either extremely smart or extremely stupid. Of course, there are also deformities. There are a few ordinary people.”
“Ah? Is that so?”
Shen Xiaoxiao naturally did not know about this. She was a child who had been trafficked since she was young. How could anyone talk to her about this? Even when she was overseas, she did not really understand what other people were saying. Of course, it was impossible for her to know about this.
But now that she heard 19 say this, Shen Xiaoxiao knew that Pei Li and Pei Meimei were the exceptions. They were extremely intelligent.
However, if they were from the Ouyang family, it would be even more difficult to deal with them.
“Does Ouyang Minyan and Ouyang Jinming know?”
“They should know. Otherwise, this Second Young Master, Pei Xi, wouldn’t be so unpopular with Ouyang Minyan.”
Hearing 19’s words, Shen Xiaoxiao turned to look at Pei Xi in the glass window. It seemed that it wouldn’t be easy for Pei Xi to hold on to the position of the head of the Pei family.
Eh? The woman opposite him was Pei Tianai? The daughter of the Pei family who has been abroad for more than ten years? Why was she back?
Shen Xiaoxiao had seen a photo of Pei Tianai. She and Pei Tianheng were twins, so Pei Xi and Pei Tianai were somewhat similar.
However, she did not know why Pei Tianai had suddenly returned. It seemed that the internal problems of the Pei family were much more chaotic than she had imagined…
