Chapter 78: Chapter 78: The Snowball of Lies Chapter 78: Chapter 78: The Snowball of Lies Meng Wanhua lay in bed after returning home, her mind swirling with random thoughts.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard a rapid knocking at the door.
She glanced at the time, it was past three in the afternoon…
Who could it be at this hour?
She got up and walked to the door, peering through the peephole, she was surprised to see Lin Youdong and Zhao Sulan.
What were they here for?
They also seemed extremely anxious.
Could it be that Lin Fangwei’s condition had worsened?
No, that couldn’t be right.
They didn’t know Lin Fangwei was her daughter, so there was no reason for them to come looking for her because of that.
Confused, she opened the door, and before she could say anything, Zhao Sulan barged in, pushed her forcefully, and cursed, “Meng Wanhua, you heartless and deceitful woman, clearly your daughter Meng Chuyue could save Fangwei, but instead you hid her away and had your cousin impersonate her.
You’re so cruel to stand by and do nothing, your conscience is utterly despicable.”
Meng Wanhua felt a jolt in her heart, “…”
How did they find out?
Did Meng Jingfen betray her?
If that was the case, Meng Jingfen was truly hateful.
With a steely gaze, she asked, “Who told you?”
Lin Youdong was about to answer when Zhao Sulan interrupted, “Who told us?
You were so intent on keeping this secret, but you never expected to run into your second brother today, did you?
He used to avoid us whenever he saw us, but today, perhaps because you got diagnosed with a terminal illness, he took the initiative to talk to us.
He said Youdong should treat Chuyue better in the future, ha, Chuyue?
Haha, Meng Wanhua, it’s all karma.”
If Lin Fangwei were Zhao Sulan’s biological daughter, she could retort with “It’s fate that your daughter got that disease too, right?” But since Lin Fangwei was her own biological daughter, she couldn’t utter those words.
She sighed and said calmly, “Meng Jingfen is indeed my cousin’s daughter, the child of my elder brother Meng Jinhua.
However, Chuyue is not Lin Youdong’s biological daughter.
If you don’t believe me, we can have a paternity test done.”
Chuyue’s biological father was Han Zheng, so she wasn’t afraid of having a paternity test with Lin Youdong.
So he still couldn’t shake off being cuckolded?
The frenzy and mockery on Zhao Sulan’s face suddenly disappeared, and with eyes wide open in fury, she screamed, “You’re talking nonsense!
If she isn’t Youdong’s daughter, why would you need to use an imposter to trick us?”
Meng Wanhua gave a helpless smile, “I didn’t want Chuyue to know that her father’s identity was uncertain.”
Meng Wanhua, “But now that it can’t be hidden anymore, there’s no need to keep hiding it.
You can have her take a paternity test whenever you want.”
Zhao Sulan fell silent for a moment, then said, “What do we need a paternity test for?
It doesn’t matter whose daughter she is, as long as she can a kidney to Fangwei.
Meng Wanhua, I beg you, let her be tested for a match.
No matter the result, I promise on behalf of Youdong that we will treat her as our own daughter from now on.”
Meng Wanhua snorted derisively, “When you thought she was your own daughter, you never cared for her at all.
How would you look after her now?
Get out before I lose my temper.”
Zhao Sulan was about to say something, but Lin Youdong held her back, “Don’t rush, let’s wait for the results of the paternity test.”
Currently, only the First Hospital in Hai City has the equipment for paternity testing, and they had contacts there.
It wouldn’t be difficult to arrange for a compatibility test.
If the compatibility test failed, further discussion was useless.
And if it succeeded, what’s the harm in tweaking the results of the paternity test a bit?
Zhao Sulan also regained her calm and glared fiercely at Meng Wanhua before leaving with Lin Youdong.
Meng Wanhua closed the door and collapsed onto the sofa.
Lin Youdong and Zhao Sulan were temporarily dealt with.
But what about Lin Fangwei?
Should she fabricate another lie, saying that the child she had switched at birth was lost accidentally, and that Chuyue was a child she found later on?
Well, if push comes to shove, that would be her story.
