Meng Lixing fell silent for a moment, a calculating look flickering in his eyes, "Then how should I explain this to the family? If I lie, they will definitely come to claim kinship, and if I tell the truth? If they find out Chuyue is not Wanhua’s biological daughter, they will definitely come to claim Wanhua’s inheritance.
This isn’t easy to handle. In my opinion, since you are wealthy, why not give me that money? That way, the secret can be kept."
Han Zheng sneered, "You misunderstand. I don’t need you to keep any secrets; otherwise, why wouldn’t I continue to conceal this?
You can do whatever you want now, but I must remind you that Meng Wanhua knew all along that Chuyue was not her biological daughter, so, that will won’t become invalid over any affair, don’t believe me? Go ask a lawyer. Now, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t stay any longer."
With that, Han Zheng left with Han Muyang.
After they left, the waiter brought in the items that Muyang had ordered and politely said, "Sir, President Han instructed that if you wish, we can pack these items for you."
Meng Lixing had no appetite, but not wanting to waste, he nodded, "Then pack it all."
As soon as Meng Lixing returned home, he was surrounded by Meng Jinhua, Fu Hongfang, and Meng Yajun.
Meng Jinhua asked excitedly, "Why did you bring back so much food? Was it from Han Zheng? I knew it, he wouldn’t disregard you."
Fu Hongfang’s eyes sparkled, "How much money did he give you? What about Jinhua’s job?"
Meng Yajun remained silent.
He saw very clearly that Meng Lixing looked dejected.
He also couldn’t understand how his parents could be so lacking in perception.
Meng Lixing handed the items he brought back to Meng Jinhua and sat down on the sofa, sighing deeply as if he had been drained of his spirit, and said, "Han Zheng said that Chuyue is not Wanhua’s biological daughter."
The three were speechless.
Meng Yajun, "How could that be?"
Meng Jinhua, "Could they be deceiving you? How could they even utter such a lie?"
Fu Hongfang, "If Chuyue isn’t Wanhua’s biological daughter, then does that mean Chuyue has no inheritance rights to Wanhua’s estate? Not only can we claim the inheritance back, but we can also demand child support payments from her?"
Meng Lixing waved his hand, "Han Zheng said Chuyue was stolen by Wanhua, that Wanhua’s biological daughter has always been enjoying a life of luxury, and also said that when Wanhua wrote the will, she knew Chuyue wasn’t her biological child, so the will wouldn’t be invalid. He’s not afraid of us suing him."
The three were silent again.
Chuyue was stolen by Wanhua?
Her own biological daughter has always been living in luxury, does that mean she actually switched the children?
If so, who is her real family?
Meng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang speculated wildly.
Meng Yajun also had various guesses, but he didn’t voice them.
Already feeling a headache, Meng Lixing was further annoyed by Meng Jinhua and Fu Hongfang’s babbling. He called to Meng Yajun, who was about to retreat to his bedroom, "Yajun, call your Second Uncle and ask him to come over and discuss this. If he asks what it’s about, just tell him the truth."
Meng Yajun agreed and left.
Fu Hongfang and Meng Jinhua, hearing that Meng Yinhua was coming, quickly started eating the food Meng Lixing had brought back.
If they didn’t eat now, there wouldn’t be a chance once Meng Yinhua arrived.
Chuyue is not Meng Wanhua’s daughter?
She was stolen by Meng Wanhua?
Meng Yinhua felt his worldview shatter upon hearing this news.
Thinking it unnecessary to keep this from his wife and children, he immediately shared the news with them, and then headed to Meng Jinhua’s home with Yin Fenglian, regardless of the darkness.
After they left, Meng Yuzhu remarked to Meng Yu, "No wonder Chuyue wanted to sever ties with us back then; she must have known she had no blood relation to us."
