Shen Qingyue’s face remained calm, without a hint of emotion. “Next time, you don’t need to inform me about such matters. Just stop her directly! Don’t let her disturb Grandfather’s rest.”
However, this time, the bodyguard on the phone seemed a bit hesitant. “Ms. Xu brought another woman with her. She claims that the woman is Mr. Shen’s biological granddaughter and even presented a DNA test report…”
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyue stopped in her tracks, her brows furrowing.
“Have you verified the authenticity of the report?”
“We checked, and it seems to be genuine…” The bodyguard hesitated.
After a few seconds of contemplation, Shen Qingyue said, “Stop them. I’ll be back immediately.” With that, she swiftly left the airport and rushed to the hospital.
When she arrived, Xu Fengzhi and another woman were sitting in the corridor, apparently waiting for her.
Xu Fengzhi immediately stood up. “You’re here quite quickly! Hmph, but you won’t have a good time from now on. Tell your guards to step aside. I’ve come today with important news!”
Shen Qingyue ignored her words and instead looked at the young woman beside her. She surprisingly recognized this woman; she was the waitress from the hotel who had almost been assaulted by Lu Xiong last time. “You…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Xu Fengzhi triumphantly interrupted her, “This is the legitimate daughter, the Young Lady of the Shen family! You should have heard from the bodyguard on the phone. I’m here to officially introduce her to her ancestral home! Be polite now. Perhaps, when you get kicked out of this house, I might consider helping you out a bit, out of old times’ sake. You won’t end up on the streets.”
Shen Qingyue stared coldly at Xu Fengzhi. “You suddenly bring a woman here and claim she’s the Shen family’s legitimate heir. She’s the real Young Lady.
Who do you think you are?”
“I am the legitimate daughter-in-law of the Shen family, different from someone like you, a wild seed. And Yan Xi is Shen Jun’s biological granddaughter! I’ve already had a DNA test done. Here’s the proof. I won’t foolishly fake something like this to deceive you. You can verify it as you please! Besides, I had it done right here in this hospital, right under your nose!”
Shen Qingyue did not accept the report. “A single DNA test won’t make me believe this absurdity.” She then sent the bodyguard to find a doctor from the hospital.
Soon, the report came back from over there. The appraisal report that Xu Fengzhi had brought over was indeed genuine.
Receiving this reply, Shen Qingyue was momentarily stunned. She had always thought this was just another reason for trouble that Xu Fengzhi had found, another attempt to prevent Grandfather from resting well. But this… was it real? If Yan Xi was Shen Jun’s granddaughter, then who was she? This hadn’t happened in her previous life.
Shen Qingyue’s mind suddenly became chaotic. The news had left her dumbfounded; she wasn’t a child of the Shen family?
Smirking, Xu Fengzhi pushed aside the bodyguards. “Can we go in now? I told you, I wouldn’t lie about this. If I didn’t have confidence, why would I come?” They had concealed this matter for a long time.
Shen Qingyue was still in shock, unable to fully grasp the situation. This revelation had hit her too hard.
The bodyguards exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped aside, allowing access to the way leading to Shen Jun’s ward. If Yan Xi was the real heiress of the Shen family, they would be working under her in the future. They were merely employees; they would do as told.
Triumphantly, Xu Fengzhi glanced at Shen Qingyue and then swaggered into the ward, almost as if he owned the place, exuding an air of arrogance.
Yan Xi timidly followed behind her, looking as though she dared not breathe. Passing by Shen Qingyue, she cast a cautious glance at her.
Their eyes met for a moment, and Yan Xi quickly averted her gaze, her heart filled with guilt. Shen Qingyue had helped her last time, and she had promised to repay her. But now, when they met again, Yan Xi was here to fight for her family’s inheritance. She felt a twinge of remorse. Yet, more than repaying her debt, she wanted to reclaim what was rightfully hers.
Shen Qingyue might have helped her, but Yan Xi was the true heiress of the Shen family. Shen Qingyue possessed everything that rightfully belonged to her. So, Shen Qingyue helping her was merely a matter of Shen Qingyue repaying her debt to Yan Xi!
With these thoughts, Yan Xi gathered her emotions and briskly caught up with Xu Fengzhi.
Shen Qingyue stood still for a moment, finally collected herself, and followed after them. Regardless of the situation, Xu Fengzhi remained the same person. She couldn’t allow him to disturb Grandfather. However, when she entered the room, Shen Jun was reading the appraisal report. She had expected him to be shocked or disbelieving, but he only wore an indifferent expression..
