Xie Tang has not done many bad things. Her thinking is still a bit limited.
Xie Qian thought: If Wen Ying were present, she would definitely not ask such a question.
To do a paternity test does not necessarily require the whole person to be present. Taking a bit of the party’s blood or hair samples with follicles can also work.
Xie Qian not only wants to take samples from that pair of siblings abroad, but also from the scum dad, and from that “uncle” who does border trade.
For the Zhuo siblings, Xie Qian has a way.
For the scum dad’s, Xie Qian can also get his hands on it.
The identification sample from the “uncle” who does border trade business is not easy to get… but it is not impossible. As long as one is willing to put in the effort, there is always a way.
Xie Tang did not ask why to keep it from the family.
She understood even more why Tai Jing was unwilling to say at first. Because the news Tai Jing told today is too explosive. If it is not yet investigated clearly and it makes a big fuss, not only would it wrong that “uncle” who does border trade, but it would also ruin the relationships of two families, no, three families!
Could the Zhuo siblings be that “uncle’s” children?
Xie Qian cannot confirm now.
Xie Qian is not meddling in others’ affairs, necessarily wanting to check clearly for “Xie Jinghu” whether that uncle is trustworthy.
But that uncle not only has business dealings with Jinhu Group, but also invests in mining abroad together with Xie Jinghu. If it is really the other party who connected and let the woman surnamed Zhuo and Xie Jinghu rekindle old feelings, Xie Qian suspects it is not simple emotional entanglement. With such deep interests involved between the two sides, it is impossible to simply see it as emotional entanglement!
Xie Qian let Xie Tang not tell the family first, but did not cleverly conceal it from his mother Zou Weijun.
The mother and son had dinner. Xie Qian said he wanted to go downstairs for a walk. Old Madam Xie’s eyes smiled into a line: “Go, accompany your mum for a few more laps. If you do not occupy her time, she will put down the chopsticks and be busy with work again. Work is important, rest is also important. No matter how busy, one must combine work and rest!”
The old house where Old Madam Xie now lives is not too big. Zou Weijun can live here temporarily. Adding one more Xie Qian would be too crowded.
These days back in Beijing, Xie Qian lived alone in another house. However, although he does not live with the old madam, unless he really cannot spare the time, he generally comes over to accompany the old madam for dinner.
With the liked daughter-in-law and the most beloved grandson both accompanying her, the old madam was happy to eat half a bowl more rice than usual.
To prevent this happiness from being destroyed, Old Madam Xie prohibited her son Xie Jinghu from coming to the door to be annoying.
The nanny Xiao Tian wished she could give a hundred likes to the old madam’s decision!
The mother and son strolled in the old family compound. After two laps, Xie Qian simply told the matter. At first, when Xie Qian said about Xie Jinghu’s love-hate relationship with Sara Zhuo more than twenty years ago, Zou Weijun could still endure the disgust and listen.
Later, when it came to Sara Zhuo’s two children possibly not being Xie Jinghu’s, Zou Weijun did not express an opinion. Until Xie Qian said the name of another party, Zou Weijun subconsciously refuted: “Impossible!”
Xie Qian did not speak.
Zou Weijun’s two elegant eyebrows furrowed tightly. “Your dad’s fair-weather friends are many. The circle he is in now is messy. Bosses who got rich doing business inevitably get a bit inflated. Not many can be wholeheartedly devoted to their original wives. In his circle, the one with the cleanest reputation is your Uncle Zhijun. Your Uncle Zhijun is also very close to your little uncle. Such words cannot be said carelessly.”
Yes, Uncle Zhijun’s reputation in the circle is really good.
This is a very loyal person.
When Xie Jinghu’s affair was exposed, Uncle Zhijun was the first to come to the door to劝, letting Xie Jinghu cherish his family, forcing Xie Jinghu to swear to break off with Sara Zhuo. Xie Jinghu did not give the other party a definite answer. Uncle Zhijun was angry to announce breaking off with Xie Jinghu.
Their two companies have business dealings. The overseas business is even more interest-related and not easy to split. Uncle Zhijun handed all business-related docking to others. He himself no longer meets Xie Jinghu, practicing the “breaking off” declaration.
Pushing back some years, when Xie Qian’s grandfather Professor Zou passed away, at that time Xie Jinghu was on a business trip. It was also this Uncle Zhijun who got the news and ran around to help the Zou family handle the funeral.
When Xie Jinghu hurried back, father-in-law Professor Zou was already buried. Zhijun stayed up with bloodshot eyes, acting more like the Zou family’s son-in-law than Xie Jinghu!
Xie Jinghu never suspected whether Zhijun was so diligent because he had intentions towards Zou Weijun. Because Zhijun married the same year as Xie Jinghu. The wife was a minority ethnic group with fair skin, beautiful appearance, and long legs met while doing trade at the border. Bringing her to any occasion gives Uncle Zhijun face. After marriage, the couple has a son, a few months older than Xie Qian. The couple’s relationship is good.
Zou Weijun reminded Xie Qian not to speak carelessly, not only trusting Zhijun’s character, but more worried that Xie Qian’s unfounded accusation spreading out would destroy Zhijun’s family’s happiness.
Even if Zhijun really had a period with the woman surnamed Zhuo in his youth, at that time both were not yet married. Zhijun and the woman surnamed Zhuo secretly together was sorry to Xie Jinghu, but this is not the same nature as infidelity in marriage.
Xie Qian’s meaning is not only that the woman surnamed Zhuo’s eldest son may be Zhijun’s, even the little daughter may be… These years, how Zhijun treats all the Xie family people, everyone sees. Xie Qian putting a hat on others is indeed unreasonable.
Do not say if not guilty then prove innocence, generously come out to do paternity test. Why should a good family accept such moral questioning and character insult?
Once the paternity test is done, no matter if the child is Zhijun’s or not, Zhijun’s happy family is ruined.
Zou Weijun broke these words bit by bit and told Xie Qian.
Xie Qian naturally also thought of it: “So I do not want to investigate with great fanfare. I will not alarm Uncle Zhijun’s family.”
Walking to the fourth lap in the courtyard, Zou Weijun knew she could not persuade Xie Qian. She sighed deeply: “Xie Qian, this is our family matter. You promise mum, must not hurt innocent people. You must be careful, cautious again cautious.”
“…Okay.”
Xie Qian sent his mother to the stairwell. “I will not go up.”
Zou Weijun’s heart was messy. Back home, she told her mother-in-law that Xie Qian left, and went back to her room.
Old Madam Xie called the nanny Xiao Tian: “Did Xie Qian quarrel with his mum? I see Weijun a bit unhappy.”
Xiao Tian also could not figure out what happened, but Xiao Tian subconsciously refuted. “That is impossible. Xie Qian is so filial to Sister Zou. How could he quarrel with Sister Zou!”
Xiao Tian felt that most likely the mother and son talked about Xie Jinghu, making Sister Zou low in mood.
But this cannot be said to the old madam.
Old Madam Xie thought and also nodded.
“You are right. Xie Qian is a filial child. He will not make his mum unhappy…”
—Is it that old third dog thing bullying the child again?
Old Madam Xie’s brows also furrowed: The child just returned to Beijing a few days. Does the old third really want to force the child until he cannot even return home?
