Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 343: What I Say Goes!

Although Jing Yun and Sheng Minglan could afford to wait somewhere else for three days, Grandpa Sheng could not.

With Sheng Xiao leaving Jianchuan with Mu Qiqi as well, what could that only mean?

Things between Jing Yun and Sheng Minglan were definitely not as simple as Sheng Xiao had put it.

And since both Jing Yun and Sheng Minglan left together, how could they defend themselves?

The old man was therefore furious, and indeed shaking with anger.

However, with Sheng Xiao not in Jianchuan at the moment, the old man spoke pointedly at Mama Sheng when the Sheng family convened in the evening. “You are the one who bore him. Finding him is your task, and when he comes back, I hope he would have a good explanation for what’s going on between Minglan and the white-eyed wolf.”

“As for Minglan, I’ll keep getting others to search for her.”

However, Mama Sheng was frustrated too. “Yes, I am the one who bore my son, but I wasn’t alone in educating him, was I? And what’s between Jing Yun and Minglan is ultimately their personal feelings, so why should my son have to explain things?”

“You shouldn’t condemn everyone as a whole, as if my son had harmed your granddaughter.”

The old man was naturally upset with his words. “Xiao Qin, have you been influenced too much by Mu Qiqi lately and forgot your place? You’re the matriarch of the Sheng family.”

“You are the one watching over the family and minds its affairs, so who else should I ask when there’s a problem in the family?”

“I’ll pass your word to Sheng Xiao when he returns.” Mama Sheng was not bothered to continue arguing with the old man, because everything happening to the Sheng family is always others’ fault and not his. “Is that enough?”

Be that as it may, the old man was still fuming at how Sheng Minglan never had eyes for anyone other than the family’s dog.

She was their great young mistress.

And Jing Yun?

What was he, to gun for a member of the Sheng family?

To stop Jing Yun from causing further losses to the family, the old man hence promptly issued an order, notifying all of Huang Yao to terminate every last one of Jing Yun’s position, the lunatic who shoots for the moon!

Meanwhile, Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi had met up with Jing Yun and Sheng Minglan, with Jing Yun learning from Sheng Xiao that the old man was running amok at the moment.

Sheng Minglan was naturally a little worried, and kept staring at Jing Yun while they rested at night on the bed.

“I want you to promise me that you won’t leave me whatever happens. Never say that ‘it’s for my own good’ and have me return to the Sheng family alone.”

Jing Yun turned and studied her solemnly, taking her dainty right hand as he calmly answered, “I definitely wouldn’t leave you now that we’re together. It doesn’t matter whether I’m a Xu or that I’ve been an orphan all along, I’m not letting go of your hand so easily now that I have you, whatever happens.”

Sheng Minglan promptly embraced him at those words. “You promised. Don’t go back on your words.”

“Come…” Jing Yun pulled off the sheets and sat on the bed as well, holding her tightly in his arms. “What I say goes!”

After admiring her for years, Jing Yun had long since allowed Sheng Minglan to melt into his very bones.

Now that they were together, he naturally wouldn’t push her away.

Moreover, they have Sheng Xiao.

Even if everyone in the whole wide world couldn’t be trusted, nothing couldn’t be changed as long as Sheng Xiao was with them.

Watching as Sheng Minglan fell asleep, Jing Yun whispered to her in the darkness, “I’m so useless, aren’t I? I have to rely on Young Master on everything…”

Meanwhile, things were not peaceful at the Xu family as well.

Thanks to their quick actions, the DNA results would be available early tomorrow.

But although the Xu couple had no qualms about the matter, they were still nervous when they realized they had to face the evidence.

“Dear, if the son here is exposed as an imposter, doesn’t it mean that Yihong was fooled as well?”

“Of course.” Papa Xu replied. “Or are you suggesting your eldest son was lying to you?”

“What’s with the lying? Why aren’t you asleep yet, Mom, Dad?”

Xu Yihong had just entered the house then, and had caught his parents in their serious discussion.

“Oh, I was asking your father when we could move to Jianchuan, and he said that you’ve settled things.” Mama Xu quickly switched the subject.

Xu Yihong nodded and lowered his briefcase. “Are you anxious to move there, Mom?”

“I was just thinking we were going there eventually, so why not hurry up?”

“Well, I’ll urge the people in charge and tell them to get it done quick.”

“Of course.” The Xu couple shared a look then—neither of them were telling Xu Yihong about the impostor because they remembered Sheng Minglan’s instruction to show their hand only after getting their evidence.

“Well, I’m going upstairs to rest.” Xu Yihong told them then.

The Xu couple nodded, and naturally didn’t continue discussing the matter.

However, Xu Yihong was still a little unsettled when he arrived upstairs, and therefore knocked on his younger brother’s door and told him, “Keep an eye on Mom and Dad in the next few days. I have the feeling that they are keeping something from us.”

The impostor nodded and scratched his head. “Bro…”

“What?” Xu Yihong turned and asked.

“Nothing.”

In truth, the impostor was suspecting that his toothbrush had been changed. It was no different from the one he used before, but he just felt like this one was a little too new.

Of course, Mama Xu was the one who had swapped it.

Still, the impostor was afraid to tell Xu Yihong since he might make a mountain out of a molehill.

By the next morning, the Xu couple used the excuse of visiting a friend and left their home for the DNA test center where they met Jing Yun and Sheng Minglan.

“The results are out.” The person in charge handed Papa Xu the report. “These are the documents you requested for urgent processing.”

Papa Xu deliberately opened the documents in front of the others, with Mama Xu snuggling up to formally recognize Jing Yun’s identity.

“My son. You really are my son, there’s no mistaking it.”

Husband and wife promptly put their arms around Jing Yun, who returned the hug.

The result was expected, and Sheng Minglan was naturally rejoicing too. “Can you still call yourself an orphan now, Jing Yun?”

“That said, we shouldn’t talk here. Let’s go somewhere else.”

The family hence returned to the hotel where Jing Yun stayed and discussed away behind a locked door.

“The results are out, and the one in our house is definitely an impostor… but it raises two questions.” Mama Xu told Papa Xu. “The first is how did the impostor make contact with Yihong, and the second is how the first DNA test manage to fool everyone? And because Yihong was the one who did both things, I couldn’t help being suspicious.”

“But now that we have the evidence, can’t we ask Yihong directly?” Papa Xu asked in return.
