The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 416 - Chapter 416 Chapter 461 The Truth

Chapter 416: Chapter 461: The Truth Chapter 416: Chapter 461: The Truth Now Zhong Niangyao was here, claiming that Chu Yixue was an impostor, which was undoubtedly a thunderbolt from a clear sky for Old Sir Chu.

Seeing such a big reaction from Old Sir Chu, Zhong Niangyao did not continue speaking but waited for Old Sir Chu to digest this information before she would say anything else.

After all, having experienced many storms in his life, Old Sir Chu regained his composure shortly after his initial shock. His expression was inscrutable, and it was hard to guess what he was thinking at that moment. “Lady Zhong, do you mean to say that Chu Yixue is not my granddaughter, is that it? Do you have any evidence?”

“No,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head. “I know you have already done a DNA test with Chu Yixue. However, I can tell you clearly that Chu Yixue is definitely not your granddaughter.”

Hearing Zhong Niangyao’s words, Old Sir Chu’s brow furrowed even more. “Lady Zhong, what do you mean by this? Are you just making empty claims?”

He did not understand what Zhong Niangyao meant. Was she playing games with him? But seeing the serious look on Zhong Niangyao’s face, he had a vague idea that she might be telling the truth.

“Old Sir, I think you must have also investigated. There have been quite a few grudges between Chu Yixue and me,” Zhong Niangyao continued. “However, regardless of my mindset, I am telling the absolute truth in this matter. From the beginning, I knew Chu Yixue was not your granddaughter.”

“Only, I don’t have any evidence yet. Also, I want to know how she could have deceived your family and become your supposedly lost granddaughter.”

Chu Yixue’s family background was something she knew very well, which made her even more sure that Chu Yixue couldn’t have the ability to forge DNA test results nor could she have the capability to deceive the Chu Family.

She was curious about who was behind this and what their motive was. Without evidence, she didn’t expose Chu Yixue.

“Why are you saying it now then?” Old Sir Chu asked sternly, his piercing gaze falling on Zhong Niangyao, as if he could see through her thoughts.

Zhong Niangyao, neither overly humble nor arrogant, met Old Sir Chu’s eyes, and then spoke slowly, “I originally did not plan to expose Chu Yixue’s identity so soon. But today, after meeting Chu Xu, I changed my mind.”

“Although I still don’t know who your actual granddaughter is, but–”

At this point, Zhong Niangyao’s demeanor became serious, “your real granddaughter is now suffering from a serious illness, and her life is not expected to last long. If she can be found quickly, there might still be a chance for her to live. Otherwise, I fear you won’t even get to see her for the last time.”

Upon hearing this, Old Sir Chu’s face changed dramatically. “Are you telling the truth?”

Though he asked this, his heart had already started to believe Zhong Niangyao’s words somewhat.

“In such matters, I would not lie,” Zhong Niangyao looked at Old Sir Chu, speaking seriously, “If you still have doubts, then find a way to do another DNA test with Chu Yixue! However, keep it concealed from Chu Yixue. This time, the DNA results will reveal the truth.”

After hearing Zhong Niangyao’s words, Old Sir Chu appeared even more solemn. He did not speak but sat silently, deep in thought. No one could tell what he was thinking at that moment.

An eerie silence pervaded the room.

Zhong Niangyao was unaffected. She sipped her tea and enjoyed some snacks while waiting for Old Sir Chu.

Chu Xu, on the other hand, dared not even breathe heavily at that moment. In such an oppressive atmosphere, he felt restless.

He really regretted that he had followed them here. Had he known it would be like this, he would not have come out of curiosity. Now, he felt he couldn’t even leave if he wanted to.

After a long while, Old Sir Chu spoke again, “Lady Zhong, then do you know where my real granddaughter actually is?”

Once he spoke, everyone present knew that he believed Zhong Niangyao’s words. Thus, he now wanted to quickly find his granddaughter to avoid any regrets.

“I don’t know.”

Zhong Niangyao honestly shook her head, and as Old Sir Chu looked disappointed, she continued, “However, I can figure it out.”

Old Sir Chu, who had felt immensely disappointed, was suddenly filled with hope. He spoke eagerly, “Please, Lady Zhong, help figure out where my unfortunate granddaughter is right now.”

“Alright,” Zhong Niangyao nodded, then continued, “However, to deduce where she is, I need the blood of her kin.”

“Then use my blood,” Chu Xu quickly spoke up. “I’m young and strong with plenty of blood, I’m not afraid.”

Hearing Chu Xu, who seemed to be offering himself as a blood sacrifice, Zhong Niangyao rolled her eyes and retorted, “You’re thinking too much. I just need a few drops of blood. It’s just–”

At this moment, she turned her head, her gaze falling on Old Sir Chu, “The closer the relation, the easier it is to determine the exact location.”

In other words, the blood of the person most closely related to the lost girl would make it easier to determine her location. That closest relative would likely be the biological parents or siblings.

Old Sir Chu and Chu Xu both understood Zhong Niangyao’s explanation.

Chu Xu looked to Old Sir Chu, awaiting his grandfather’s decision.

If they needed the blood of his uncle or aunt, or one of their other children, then it would no longer be possible to keep this from them.

Recently, his uncle and aunt had been happy about recovering Chu Yixue. Telling them suddenly that Chu Yixue was an impostor would be quite a blow to them.

However, if they chose not to disclose this information, the true harm would come if something happened to their real second cousin, especially since they had a chance to prevent it.

“Xiao Xu, notify your uncle and aunt to come here now.”

Old Sir Chu didn’t hesitate much before making his decision, “She is their daughter, they have the right to know. Moreover, their real daughter is on the brink of death, and as her biological parents, they have the right to be informed. Otherwise, learning the truth later would also be a tremendous shock.”
