After finishing her statement, Ye Lengan produced another bottle. With a swift motion, she unsheathed a dagger, slicing her own finger, and allowing the crimson blood to drip into the container. Immediately, she sealed the lid.
On the sidelines, Huangfu Ruiling, intending to intervene, found himself too late. He looked disapprovingly at Ye Lengan, clearly reluctant to see her harm herself, even if it was just a minor wound.
Sensing Huangfu Ruilings discontent, Ye Lengan offered a placating smile. She then turned her gaze to Ye Hongxuan, handing over the bottle. “Of course, the most crucial part is the DNA test. Though I’m uncertain whether the Hidden World conducts DNA tests, they likely require my blood as well. You’ve witnessed me extracting blood; surely, you won’t suspect any foul play!’
Hearing Ye Leng’an’s forthright words, Ye Hongxuan was left momentarily speechless. Resignedly, he reached out and accepted the bottle she proffered.
Once Ye Hongxuan had the bottle in hand, Ye Lengan asked further, “Master
Ye, how long will your confirmation process take?”
Facing Ye Leng’an’s composed demeanor, Ye Hongxuan struggled to articulate his feelings. After a moment’s thought, he asked, “We’ll know by tomorrow. When did you find out about this?”
In truth, he was more curious about Ye Leng’an’s thoughts. Her attitude was calm, almost indifferent. There was no trace of yearning for familial ties or affection toward parents in her eyes.
“It’s been some time,” Ye Lengan responded nonchalantly.
“Why didn’t you come sooner?” Lian Mengzhu interjected immediately. “You clearly knew we were your parents, and you could find the Ye family!’
Although the verification was pending, Lian Mengzhu had already placed full trust in Ye Leng’an’s words. Ye Lengan wouldn’t have come if she wasn’t certain. Moreover, the sight of Ye Lengan triggered a deep-seated feeling of familiarity and warmth.
“Why should I have come looking for you?” Ye Lengan retorted. “I’m not a child anymore, and I don’t need so-called parents to dictate my actions. If that’s the case, why invite trouble?”
Upon being labeled as trouble, Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu struggled to express their feelings. For a moment, they regarded Ye Lengan with complex gazes.
They were unsure of what experiences had shaped Ye Lengan into her current state. However, witnessing her demeanor, they couldn’t help but feel a heavy sense of foreboding.
“In fact, the reason I came and revealed this information is to seek revenge on Ye Wanwan,” Ye Lengan declared, gazing at the couple before her. ‘You probably don’t know! She knew about this long ago and even dispatched individuals to the mortal realm to harm me. So…
“Impossible! Wanwan isn’t that kind of person.”
Before Ye Lengan could finish, Lian Mengzhu interrupted, only to realize her mistake. When she looked at Ye Lengan, her eyes evaded contact. “l… I didn’t mean anything else, I just think you might have misunderstood Wanwan.”
Even though they had just learned that Wanwan might not be their daughter, the emotions they had shared over the years were genuine. Wanwan might be a bit wilful, but she wasn’t a malicious person.
Unfazed by the denial, Ye Lengan wore a mocking expression. “Whether you believe me or not is inconsequential. I came here today merely to inform you, not to persuade you.”
With that, Ye Lengan stood up, heading towards Huangfu Ruiling. “Since we’ll know the result tomorrow, I’ll return then!”
Preparing to leave, she pushed Huangfu Ruiling to exit the Ye family residence.
Observing Ye Leng’an’s departure, Ye Hongxuan promptly stood. “Are you leaving just like that?”
He found it increasingly challenging to comprehend Ye Leng’an’s intentions. She disclosed shocking news, yet took no action. Even after revealing everything, she stood up and left without displaying any excitement.
“Yes,” Ye Leng’an affirmed. “Since I’ve conveyed what I needed to, it’s time to leave.’
Did she need to stay for dinner?
Moreover, whether Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu believed her or not was uncertain. They needed time to verify the truth before deciding their next steps!
Therefore, after uttering these words, Ye Lengan disregarded Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu, pushing Huangfu Ruiling to leave the Ye family.
Left alone in the side hall, Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu sat in silence, neither daring to speak first.
After an extended period, Ye Hongxuan finally raised his head, glancing at Lian Mengzhu with a strained tone. “Mengzhu, if what Ye Lengan said is true, then I won’t spare Lian Zixin.”
Aware of how much his wife cherished her sister, he intended to convey that if Lian Zixin had indeed committed such deeds, he wouldn’t be lenient. Even if his wife pleaded in the future, he wouldn’t be swayed.
“If Zixin really did this, then…” Lian Mengzhu’s tone carried a weight of sorrow, yet she gritted her teeth, continuing, “l won’t care about sisterly bonds anymore. She must pay the due price.”
Even if she were her biological sister, causing separation from her daughter for so many years was unforgivable.
Ye Hongxuan nodded. After a pause, he spoke again, “If what Ye Lengan said is true, then Wanwan…
Hearing Ye Hongxuan’s words, Lian Mengzhu lapsed into silence.
Now, learning abruptly that the daughter she had doted on for years might not be her biological child and that Ye Wanwan was the actual daughter of Lian Zixin, the perpetrator, left them unsure how to face Ye Wanwan.
After an indeterminate period, Lian Mengzhu finally uttered, “Wanwan, can’t she stay with us? Back then, she was just a little baby, completely ignorant of anything..”
