Chapter 1484 - Great to Have You (44) (1/2)

Thereafter, he added, “But this is ultimately your family’s private issue. I haven’t married you, is it really okay to go as your boyfriend?”

“Why not? My grandfather is just trying to make things clear, right?” Wu Pingyang insisted on him going along with her. “Just go with me to take a look. I heard from my mother that Mu Wansheng’s eyes have been treated.”

“She really has a blessed life. I’m impressed.”

“Isn’t there a saying that goes, ‘good people don’t live long, but the evil live a thousand years to harm others’?”

Luo Hang laughed in amusement. “I can tell, your relationship with her is really terrible.”

“It has been like this since we’re young. It isn’t a matter of one or two days.” Speaking of this, Wu Pingyang asked him, “Is that Xia Banqin still contacting you?”

“She called me, but I didn’t pick up. She had originally wanted custody of the child, but how could I have given it to her? I’m already being magnanimous by allowing her to see the child twice every month. What else does she want?”

“Well done. You can’t give her the custody of the child. It’s right to have her in your clutches like that. Otherwise, if she gets the child’s custody, she’ll have the upper hand.” Wu Pingyang was peeved once she thought about how Xia Banqin had taken her and Luo Hang’s intimate pictures to the Mu residence and dared to extort such a huge sum from them. She must be really crazy about money.

“I’m going back.”

“Alright. Drive safely.”

He nodded, then got up to leave.

Wu Pingyang also got up from the long bench and went back to her department.

She had just gone in when Lu Jingrao started criticizing, “Don’t you see that there are so many patients around? Where have you been?”

“My boyfriend was here. I went to meet him for a while.”

“He has to come once every day, and during your work hours? Tell him next time to come and find you when you’ve gotten off work. If you dare to go out for half an hour during your work hours again, I’ll add a demerit to your record.” With that, he left the department. Having been told off by him in front of so many colleagues, Wu Pingyang was extremely peeved.

“Isn’t our head your brother-in-law? I see he isn’t humane toward you at all. Looks like you don’t have a good relationship with your sister.”

Wu Pingyang let out a snort before rebutting her colleague, “Why do you care? You needn’t worry about such things. Get lost.”

“…”

The following morning, the skies were gloomy and rather dark. The weather was evidently not good.

Mu Wansheng and Fan Shixin packed up their house before heading to the Mu residence.

When Fan Shixin entered the front door with his hand in Mu Wansheng’s, he asked upon realizing that everyone was around, “Is this a family meeting or something? Why is everyone here?”

From how it seemed to him, a paternity test didn’t require the whole Mu family to be around, right? Wasn’t it enough if a few of the elders were around?

Wu Pingyang responded, “No, everyone gathered here because we want to witness the moment of truth. We were only waiting for you and Mu Qixing’s family to arrive.”

Mu Wansheng replied frankly, “I think there’s no need for this, actually…”

“You may think that there’s no need, but all of us think that this is very necessary. Not only has the outside world been engaging in heated debates about this, even amongst the Mu family members, there have been discussions about this. And this despite the fact that nobody says anything about it on the surface,” Wu Pingyang asserted strongly, without even waiting for her to finish speaking.

“Why didn’t we do a test a few years ago, then?” Mu Wansheng asked. “That was when the debate about this was the fiercest, wasn’t it?”

This question rendered the senior Mr. Mu completely speechless, yet he could not ignore it.
