Chapter 879 What's wrong? You're not going to do it? Feeling guilty?
"Mom, you're lying to me, aren't you?"
Xu Aiqing tried to get close to Guo Shufen, but was stopped by the bodyguard.
“I’m not lying to you. Back then, your mother, Yue Minglan, worked as a maid in our Xu family. At that time, our Xu family hadn’t gone bankrupt yet and was quite well-off. Your mother had already started having bad intentions.”
Guo Shufen looked at Xu Aiqing with cold eyes and began to recount what happened back then.
“She bought aphrodisiacs from the black market and put them in my husband Xu Wenchang’s tea, trying to have sex with him and then use that to climb the social ladder. I came back from my parents’ home early and happened to catch her in the act. She didn’t succeed. The surveillance footage at the time recorded the whole process of her drugging him.”
"Grandson-in-law, show her the surveillance footage."
Guo Shufen took out a USB drive and handed it to Mo Erchen.
"Okay, grandma."
Moerschen took the USB drive and inserted it into the lawyer's laptop.
A short while later, the scene of Yue Minglan putting medicine in the teacup appeared.
A few minutes later, Yue Minglan took the teacup containing the drug to Xu Wenchang's study.
Xu Wenchang took the teacup and smelled it. As if realizing he had been drugged, he smashed the teacup with a "bang".
Then they saw Yue Minglan trying to force herself on her. At this moment, Guo Shufen pushed open the study door, angrily scolded Yue Minglan, and drove her away.
The video ends here.
"After your mother's attempt to drug her failed, we fired her. A year later, she came to the Xu family with a baby girl, saying that the child was my husband's and demanding a large sum of money from us. We immediately took her and the baby to the hospital for a paternity test, which proved that the child was not my husband's. Your mother then abandoned you and ran away. We also immediately reported the case to the police, and your mother was sent to prison for the following crimes: illegal drugs and extortion."
Guo Shufen continued her story.
Mu Qianqian, Xu Zhiyi, and Cheng Sinuo all stared wide-eyed.
Could such a ridiculous thing have actually happened to an old lady?
"No...she's not my mom, I don't have a mom like that."
Xu Aiqing held her head in her hands, her face contorted in pain.
"You may not believe it, but it's true. Your mother has been out of prison for a long time. You can find her and verify everything I've said."
“At first, my husband hated your mother and you and wanted to hand you over to the police or an orphanage because he didn’t know who your biological father was.”
"It was because I had a soft heart that I took you in with the witness of several elders of the Xu family. Over the years, I raised you like my own daughter and even married you into the wealthy Ji family. Who knew that my good intentions would be rewarded with such an ungrateful wretch like you? Not only are you ungrateful, but you also refused to support me when the Xu family went bankrupt and even kicked me when I was down. Now that the Xu family has risen again, you want money back. Where do you have the nerve?"
"Mom, you're lying. I took care of you. My brother was able to make a comeback because I gave him a large sum of money."
Xu Aiqing was still not giving up and wanted to distort the truth.
"Take a look, what is this?"
Mo Erchen took out his phone and pulled up the surveillance video of the Ji family from many years ago. It showed a conversation between Xu Aiqing and Ji Mingxuan, clearly indicating that Xu Aiqing was refusing to support her adoptive mother who had gone bankrupt.
"If this isn't evidence that you haven't supported your grandmother, then provide evidence that you have."
Mo Erchen's face was gloomy, and he exuded a strong sense of coldness.
"I...I have no evidence."
"You said you gave your father-in-law a large sum of money to help him make a comeback, but where are the transfer records? You live in two different countries, so you can't possibly say you gave him cash, can you?"
Mo Erchen pressed on relentlessly, leaving Xu Aiqing completely unable to defend herself.
"I…"
"Ms. Xu, if you continue to argue illogically and distort the truth, we will sue you according to the law."
The lawyer then stepped forward and reprimanded Xu Aiqing.
"I…"
Xu Aiqing opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a rebuttal to the lawyer.
She was just talking nonsense.
And indeed, he never took care of his mother.
Not to mention the claim that she gave her elder brother Xu Lanshan a sum of money to help him make a comeback; that was all made up by her and was completely fabricated.
“Aiqing, if you still have a conscience and remember the kindness of me raising you, then don’t come to the Xu family to cause trouble. The lawyer has also said that the adoption agreement from back then is not protected by law at all and is as good as nothing. You will not get a single penny from the Xu family.”
“Even if the Ji family goes bankrupt, there are still three thousand nails in a broken ship. You all have hands and feet, you can earn your own money and won’t end up on the streets. I haven’t received any care or support from you all these years. It’s all Lanshan and Zhiyi who have supported me, taken care of me, and treated my illnesses. If you still remember the kindness I, your mother, have shown you in raising you, then don’t try to distort the truth and stop scheming for the money your older brother worked so hard to earn.”
Guo Shufen's words made Xu Aiqing lower her head.
Ji Mingxuan's wife began to waver and became anxious.
He wanted to make a comeback by exploiting the Xu family.
If his wife really isn't a member of the Xu family, what will they do in the future?
My son is a good-for-nothing, and my daughter is mentally unstable and in a mental hospital; she needs money for treatment.
"Mom, I don't believe what you're saying. How could Aiqing not be your daughter? You've planned this all along, using the excuse that she's not your daughter to avoid giving her money, haven't you?"
Ji Mingxuan jumped in, continuing to stir up trouble.
“Ji Mingxuan, there is a medical procedure called paternity testing. If you continue to make trouble, I don’t mind arranging for a doctor from the Mo family’s private hospital to do a paternity test for Grandma and Xu Aiqing.”
Mo Erchen's cold gaze startled Ji Mingxuan.
But the lure of money still made him stubbornly stick his neck out and continue talking nonsense.
"You said it yourself, it was a paternity test done at your Mo family's private hospital. Do you think we'd believe it? Who knows if you might have tampered with it?"
"Fine, then let's go to a specialized and authoritative institution. That way you won't have anything to say, right?"
Given Mo Erchen's temper, he would have knocked Ji Mingxuan down with a few punches long ago.
But thinking that he wanted to help his wife, grandmother, and father-in-law get rid of this shameless family, he still held back his temper.
"Let's do it. We'll choose the hospital; isn't that fair?"
Ji Mingxuan started to have his own plans.
He has a relative who happens to be a doctor at a paternity testing agency in Country C. If necessary, he can secretly change the test results so that Xu Aiqing is still the Xu family's daughter and can smoothly obtain a sum of money.
"Don't get any funny ideas. We're monitoring the whole process with CCTV, including the doctor conducting the assessment. I'll have someone watching him. Forget about your dirty thoughts."
How could Mo Erchen, so shrewd, not see through Ji Mingxuan's scheme?
"this…"
"What, you're not going to do it? Feeling guilty?"
Mo Erchen looked at him with disdain.
"Honey, let's stop doing it."
Xu Aiqing now believed her adoptive mother's words.
She worried that if the paternity test results came back and she really wasn't Xu's biological daughter, then everything would be over.
If she doesn't do it now, she can appease Guo Shufen in a few days and maybe continue being the Xu family's adopted daughter. If she keeps the old lady happy, she can still get money.
The couple had all sorts of ulterior motives.
