Chapter 1745: As Far Away As Possible
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Because the Qin Corporation’s Private Hospital was too powerful, Gu Nianzhi chose to have the military laboratory do a DNA test so that it could be used as legal evidence in court.
Of course, she would also have Lu Jin test it so that she could have a good idea. However, Lu Jin’s test could not be used as legal evidence without a legal source.
There were not many organizations that were qualified to test the DNA of their immediate relatives and could be accepted as evidence by the court.
The military laboratory was one of them.
Gu Nianzhi also believed in He Chengjian and He Zhichu’s abilities.
Once they realized the source of the danger, they would not hesitate to cut off their hands.
Therefore, only the military laboratory could guarantee that the test results were most likely correct and legal.
…
After the judge left the courtroom, Qin Yaoguang was carried out by the bailiffs to the infirmary for an examination.
Her huge legal team followed her in a flash.
Wen Shouyi sat alone on the other side of the witness stand. She had a wooden face and was expressionless. It was completely different from her usual smiling face.
When the Qin family walked past her, they didn’t know how to face her.
Initially, they still had some opinions about her sudden landing and becoming the executive director of the Qin Corporation’s Private Hospital. However, after listening to the trial today, they did not know what to say.
One by one, they walked past her. At most, they only glanced at her. No one spoke to her and greeted her. No one even maintained their previous hypocritical courtesy.
Liang Meili and Wen Dayou were escorted back to the detention center by the bailiffs.
When they passed Wen Shouyi, Wen Dayou stopped to take a look at her. He wanted to say a few words, but he didn’t know where to start.
Liang Meili felt extremely uncomfortable. Although she knew it wasn’t Wen Shouyi’s fault, she still couldn’t treat her as her daughter anymore.
However, when she glanced at Wen Shouyi and thought of Qin Yaoguang’s appearance, she couldn’t help but shake her head, thinking that she had made a mistake?
If Wen Shouyi and Qin Yaoguang were related, they didn’t look alike at all…
Then Wen Shouyi must look like her father, Wen Dayou.
However, Wen Shouyi only had a nose that looked more like her father. Who else did she look like in other parts of her face?
Liang Meili muttered to herself as she left the courtroom before Wen Dayou.
In order not to be seen by He Chengjian and He Zhichu, Lu Jin and Huo Shaoheng left the courtroom among the Qin family members.
After they left, only Gu Nianzhi, He Zhichu, He Chengjian, and Xie Qingying were left in the courtroom.
He Chengjian walked up to Gu Nianzhi and said ruefully, “Nianzhi, you were amazing. You opened our eyes today!”
“Major General He, you flattered me,” Gu Nianzhi picked up her briefcase and said with a smile. “Qin Yaoguang’s DNA is being tested in the military lab. I hope Major General He could keep an eye on the military lab to ensure that the test results are accurate and confidential.”
“My personal secretary would keep an eye on this matter personally.” He Chengjian assured Gu Nianzhi. “Don’t worry, the test results would be accurate and will be handed directly to the court.”
“Thank you, Major General He,” Gu Nianzhi nodded and smiled at He Zhichu, who was standing next to He Chengjian. “Mr. He, please help out. After the lawsuit is over, I’ll treat you to dinner.”
When she said, “treat you to a meal” she also included Xie Qingying.
Xie Qingying was seated between He Chengjian and He Zhichu when she was listening in from the side. Now, she was standing behind He Zhichu.
When she heard Gu Nianzhi say this, she stuck her head out and smiled. “You’re too kind, Lawyer Gu.”
She praised her, “Lawyer Gu, you were imposing in your lawsuit. You would win!”
However, even if she won, it was a lawsuit against her mother. Xie Qingying felt that she had mentioned the wrong thing and quickly responded, “I would be leaving first. I’ll wait for Mr. He and Uncle He outside.”
He Chengjian waved at her, “Qingying, you and Zhichu go first. I have something to say to Nianzhi.”
He Zhichu gave Gu Nianzhi a deep look and turned to leave with Xie Qingying.
Gu Nianzhi and He Chengjian were the only two people left in the courtroom.
He Chengjian’s guards and the personal secretary looked at them from afar, taking the opportunity to be on alert.
In the empty courtroom, even breathing seemed to echo.
However, He Chengjian’s voice was even softer.
He asked softly, “Nianzhi, do you think that your mother, Qin Yaoguang, and Wen Dayou gave birth to Wen Shouyi?”
He Chengjian said solemnly, “I could prove that you were the first child Qin Yaoguang gave birth to. She can’t give birth to Wen Shouyi.”
“Why did you say that?” Gu Nianzhi asked calmly, wanting to know more about the truth of the past.
“The year Wen Shouyi was born, I remembered that she spent most of her time researching the imperial capital and had never seen her pregnant before. It was completely different from six years later when she was pregnant and gave birth to you.”
“… I only believe in DNA evidence,” Gu Nianzhi thought about it seriously, “I’m very happy that humans have mastered biological genetic technology and could accurately verify the human’s immediate family relationship. As for how they gave birth, I don’t care.”
He Chengjian always felt that Gu Nianzhi had a hidden meaning behind her words.
But he hadn’t thought about it for a while.
At this time, he was also certain that the person who had planned to kidnap Nianzhi eight years ago was Qin Yaoguang, even though he couldn’t understand why she had done it.
He had never stopped Qin Yaoguang and Gu Xiangwen, nor had he forbidden them from seeing Nianzhi.
On the contrary, he had specifically told them that they could visit Nianzhi at any time.
The He family’s door was always open to them.
Qin Yaoguang was a classic example of someone who wouldn’t leave through the door but insisted on jumping over the wall and going down the wrong path.
When Gu Nianzhi turned to leave, she saw He Chengjian furrowing his brows tightly, still pondering her words.
She couldn’t help saying, “… Modern science became so advanced that artificial insemination was already a very mature technology. The sperm and egg cells were combined to form a fertilized egg, which is then transplanted into the womb and implanted into the bed, and a child could be born.”
She paused, then continued, “If the fertilized egg of Qin Yaoguang and Wen Dayou is transplanted into the womb of another woman, Wen Shouyi could still be born. Moreover, her DNA data will show that she and Qin Yaoguang are mother and daughter, and not the surrogate mother.”
He Chengjian’s brows relaxed as he suddenly realized something, “You’re saying that Qin Yaoguang’s egg cells were artificially inseminated with Wen Dayou’s sperm before being born to the surrogate mother?”
“If you insist that Qin Yaoguang did not give birth to a child before giving birth to me, and Wen Shouyi is her direct relative, then this would be the only answer.”
“But why would she do that? Why would she combine her egg cells with Wen Dayou’s sperm?” He Chengjian was very confused, or perhaps a little uneasy.
“I don’t know about that, and I don’t care,” Gu Nianzhi shrugged. “Major General He, if you’re interested, you could ask Qin Yaoguang directly. I think Qin Yaoguang treats you differently and might tell you the truth.”
Gu Nianzhi walked to the door and didn’t turn back. She continued, “If you want to ask her, please also ask her why she kidnapped me eight years ago and framed my father.”
He Chengjian kept quiet.
Of course, he wouldn’t ask Qin Yaoguang personally. After Qin Yaoguang woke up, she had immediately asked his lawyer to bring a letter to see him, but he had rejected it.
He was an extremely suspicious person, to begin with.
Qin Yaoguang was able to let his guard down and even married her because Qin Yaoguang did not have any selfish motives all these years. Other than doing her medical and genetic research, she took care of He Zhichu’s body and poured her heart and soul into his health.
The Qin family had never disobeyed He Chengjian and harmed the interests of the country.
That was why he had allowed them to grow.
But now, starting with the infrasound weapon, the Qin family had begun to tease He Chengjian about the things he could not stand the most.
Not only had the court today proved that Qin Yaoguang was the mastermind behind Gu Nianzhi’s kidnapping eight years ago, but she had also suddenly appeared as an “illegitimate daughter”. How could He Chengjian continue to believe her?
Strictly speaking, Gu Nianzhi was also an “illegitimate daughter” because Qin Yaoguang and Gu Xiangwen had never been married.
However, in He Chengjian’s heart, Gu Nianzhi’s identity was aboveboard and could not be compared to Wen Shouyi, who had no idea how she had been born.
And once He Chengjian became suspicious, he would think very far ahead, very deeply.
…
He walked out of the courtroom and got into his bulletproof car. He Chengjian realized that He Zhichu was the only one there.
“Where’s Qingying?”
“She left first,” He Zhichu closed the window. “Let’s go home.”
He was in a good mood, but He Chengjian was in a bad mood.
No matter who it was, they wouldn’t be in a good mood if they found out that the person they used to sleep with had a face that he wasn’t familiar with.
“Dad, I would be going to the military lab in the next few days and personally watch them conduct the tests,” He Zhichu had made up his mind to help Gu Nianzhi secure this important piece of evidence.
“Okay,” He Chengjian answered lightly and closed his tired eyes. He told his personal secretary, “Investigate the medical experiments that the United Nations Population Fund had done in our country, especially the collaboration projects from more than 20 years ago. Also…”
He Chengjian thought for a moment, “Call Speaker Long and Prime Minister Xie separately. Tell them that I don’t agree to continue the collaboration with the United Nations Population Fund on pharmaceutical research in biological genes. Tell them to pack up and get lost, as far away as possible!”
“Yes, Chief.”
…
Gu Nianzhi returned to her apartment, Lu Jin and Huo Shaoheng came up to her.
“My daughter was so amazing!” Lu Jin was the first to walk up to her with open arms, wanting to hug her.
Gu Nianzhi pushed him away with one hand and said bluntly, “Dad, did you already know who Wen Shouyi was?”
