Chapter 40: The DNA test

It was a glorious morning, the air was fresh and the singing of the birds was melodious. Chi Lian skipped like an unbothered child as she finished her morning workout. She waved to every stranger she came across cheerfully.

She was still high from that unexpected kissing session with Jun Muyang last night. Every time she closed her eyes it was like she was right back in that moment, in his arms with their lips pressed together and his hands running up and down her arms and back.

She wondered what it would be like when things worked out between them and they crossed that final line. He had definitely been excited at one point last night which excited her body in return. It was too soon to cross that line but who made the rules in this scenario?

She was like an otaku who died a virgin in his past life and she was now ready to shed that identity.

All she had to do was work harder at invading his heart and soon, she would be able to kiss him and touch him as she pleased.

Within her mind, she laughed like a villain and plotted her next move.

Together with her two female bodyguards they stretched one last time before going back to the house.

As soon as she entered the house, Mei-Mei threw herself into her arms like a little cannon bolt.

"Mummy catch." she shouted in her adorable voice.

Chi Lian lifted her up and threw her into the air while she squealed. "Mummy stop." She giggled very loudly.

Mama Chi was anxiously watching them from the dining table. What if she slipped and fell! Her daughter was really a risk taker.

"Do you want to bathe with mummy?" She asked the giggling baby.

"Mei, bathe mummy," she nodded.

Ever since she started talking, she had been adding more and more words to her vocabulary to the delight of the entire family. Lately, their biggest way to pass time at home was getting Mei-Mei to pronounce different words.

Chi Zimo came downstairs with his phone and showed the trending topics on the internet.

"Sister, the peep star has a video of you and brother-in-law kissing in his car. You have become famous; all the entertainment shows are discussing you."

She looked at the phone and realized that all the trending topics were somehow related to her. From the show tea with the princess to the topic about Shu Ning’s breast surgery. All the first seven trending topics were things she had caused or done.

"Maybe you should join your entertainment company; your name is in the gossip blogs and shows every week you are just like celebrity. But I wonder how this paparazzo does it, they are too good." Zimo mumbled as he walked away.

She smiled as thought about that video; it was one of her finest pieces. What was Jun Muyang’s thought about it.

Jun Muyang was not thinking about the video, he was very busy that morning teaching a class.

Wenzhe was even busier than his boss. He had secretly carried out the task assigned to him by the Jun family; he took some of Mei-Mei’s hair and Jun Muyang’s hair and ordered for a DNA test to be carried out. Today was the day that he finally got the results.

Because he was acting secretly, he had the results sent to Jun Muyang’s office at the university because he could easily sneak it away from there without his young master’s knowledge. At the office, any document had to go through security and the secretaries would sort out what belonged where before delivering it to his desk directly.

Here he was the only one with access.

As Jun Muyang lectured a class of eighty students, Wenzhe kept looking outside nervously. And when class ended, he quickly run ahead to the office and left Jun Muyang to the crowd of adoring students.

He found the envelope labeled Dingnan labs and hurriedly ripped it open. To his expectation, the test reported exactly what he expected.

Jun Muyang and Mei-Mei were 99% related. They are father and daughter.

Quickly, he scanned the document and uploaded it to his files, and then he sent it to grandpa Jun.

"What are you hiding?" Jun Muyang popped up behind him.

Wenzhe screamed like a girl and put a hand over his heart. Was his young master trying to give him a heart attack?

"It’s nothing, just some old student assignments." His young master could never know what he had secretly done.

"Hand it over." Jun Muyang held out his hand expectantly.

Wenzhe hid the document behind his back and walked backwards until he was backed against the wall.

"Give it to me before I rip it out of your hands." Jun Muyang looked at him coldly.

Wenzhe squeezed his eyes and tried to look pitiful. He prayed to Buddha for mercy because the young master was going to rip his arm off for what he had done. He would be fired and banned from working for all upper society forever. It was a quagmire that had no positive end.

"Young master, I didn’t mean to. I really didn’t. It was the old master who forced me to do it."

Jun Muyang leaned back in his chair, crossed one leg over the other and folded his hands over his chest.

"Let me guess, they told you to do a DNA test on Chi Lian’s daughter and I." he said with one eyebrow raised.

His family was nothing if not predictable.

"Yes," Wenzhe nodded his head. "The chairman said that I would be re-assigned if I refused to do it."

"What are they hoping for?"

"Your grandfather is sure that she is your daughter but your father does not agree."

Jun Muyang stayed quiet and drummed desk with his fingers in deep thought. He had no desire to rendezvous with his father at any point any time soon. Their relationship was damaged and it was beyond repair. If his father knew that Mei-Mei was not his daughter, he would make it a point to make life unnecessarily difficult for Chi Lian so that she could stay away from him.

He liked Chi Lian and her daughter was tolerable, the girl was adopted and she had no father. It wouldn’t harm her to be his adopted daughter if things went well. And if they didn’t, he could take her as his god-daughter. He would have a conversation with Chi Lian about it.

"What about my mother and grandmother?"

"They like lady Chi and are hopeful that Mei-Mei is yours."

"Hand that document to me."

Once he received the sealed document, he stood up, walked to the shredder and shredded it.

"Get a similar document made which proves that she is my daughter and send that one."

"Yes young master." Wenzhe quickly tuned around to leave the mine field which he had just survived.

"Wenzhe," Jun Muyang called dangerously.

He turned around, legs numb and trembling. "Y-ye-yes."

"This should be the last time you keep such a thing from me. If it happens again, I will fire you."

"I promise not to do it again." he vowed desperately.

He left the office with sweat dripping down his back and rushed into his office. When he sat at his desk, his entire body felt weak and boneless.

He placed his down for a few minutes to calm his heart.

When rational thought finally returned, he realized that the young master had just asked him to forge the document. But why!

The test was clearly positive, they were father and daughter. Did the young master not know or was he pretending?
