Chapter 436: Zhan Yanxun must agree
After Yan Lan finished speaking, she was about to start working again. After all, she was very curious about whether the baby that suddenly appeared was Zhan Yanxun's, and the sooner she knew the truth, the sooner she could make preparations.
Yan Lan was about to start again when Xiao Jiangbao's hands went numb.
How can they still be so greedy?
Su Mengyu tightly protected Xiao Jiangbao and said, "I'm sorry, if you want to do a paternity test, you must get Zhan Yanxun's consent."
“Miss Su, we are Yan Xun’s mother and sister-in-law. Why aren’t we qualified to do a paternity test for the child?”
"I don't care whether you're qualified or not, but Zhan Yanxun entrusted the child to my care, so I must take good care of the child and make sure she's unharmed. If you pull the baby's hair and hurt her, I won't be able to explain it to Zhan Yanxun."
Although Zhan Yanxun did not give any specific instructions, Su Mengyu still could not allow Xie Qingyi and Yan Lan to do a paternity test for the child.
After all, she always felt that Yan Lan had ill intentions and was secretly plotting against them.
Could they secretly tamper with the results of the paternity test?
She wasn't sure if the child was Zhan Yanxun's. But if a paternity test revealed that he had tampered with the results, it would be troublesome. Therefore, she had to protect the child until Zhan Yanxun returned; whether or not to do a paternity test was Zhan Yanxun's business.
"It's just plucking a few strands of hair for a paternity test, how could it harm the child? Miss Su, you are really serious and responsible for your child, but you are overthinking it."
Yan Lan definitely wanted to have a paternity test done on the child. After all, she needed to know as soon as possible whether the child was Zhan Yanxun's or not so she could make new plans.
Yan Lan's explanation was worthless to Su Mengyu.
Su Mengyu calmly said, "Thank you for your praise. If a paternity test is to be done, it should be done by the child's father. As for other people, just listen to what the child's father has to say."
Su Mengyu was being quite polite to Yan Lan. If it were her personality in the past, she would have kicked them out long ago.
She didn't want to meddle, but she didn't want to have a conflict with her right now. After all, she was holding such a small baby in her arms, and she didn't want the noise to cause the baby any discomfort.
Yan Lan, having run into trouble with Su Mengyu, quickly turned to Xie Qingyi and said, "Mom, you came all this way in this sweltering heat just to get a paternity test for the child, but this Miss Su seems to distrust us. She actually won't let us do the paternity test for the child. Does she think we're bad people? Why don't you talk to her about it?"
Yan Lan knew that Su Mengyu wasn't exactly a pushover. Back home, she had already instigated Xie Qingyi, urging her to get a paternity test done no matter what, because if the child wasn't from the Zhan family, they couldn't let her be deceived by some random woman.
Yan Lan pondered in her heart. If Xie Qingyi insisted on pulling out the child's hair for a paternity test, she might even argue with Su Mengyu. This would greatly damage Xie Qingyi's impression of her, and she would no longer want to let Yan Lan marry into the Zhan family. In that case, Yan Lan would still be the Zhan family's only daughter-in-law.
Xie Qingyi smiled and said to Su Mengyu, "Miss Su, if this child really is my son's, then I am the child's grandmother, and I have an obligation to care for and raise him. But as you know, the Zhan family is large and powerful, and I'm afraid some malicious people might deceive my son, claiming that this child is his. I can't let those vixens get away with this, so today I must pull a few strands of the child's hair to do a paternity test with my son."
Su Mengyu was in a dilemma. If it were Yan Lan, she would have dared to chop her to death with a hand chop, but it was Xie Qingyi.
After all, she was Zhan Yanxun's mother, so she couldn't use a simple and crude method.
How can I get her to give up?
“Madam Zhan, I understand your good intentions, but the child’s father should know about the paternity test. If he doesn’t agree, I can’t let you pull the child’s hair.”
Yan Lan said impatiently from the side, "It's just plucking a few strands of hair, Miss Su, you're being way too anxious. If you don't believe me, fine, but why don't you believe my mother-in-law? My mother-in-law is the matriarch of the Zhan family, Zhan Yanxun's mother, and maybe even the grandmother of this little girl you're holding. How come she doesn't even have the qualifications to do a paternity test? You have too much power. Even a grandmother needs your permission to do a paternity test for her granddaughter. If word gets out, people will laugh at my mother-in-law."
Xie Qingyi has always been very concerned about her reputation, and she's been pleading with Su Mengyu relentlessly. Yet, Su Mengyu still won't let her get a paternity test for the child.
This was going too far. Xie Qingyi's expression darkened. She said, "Miss Su, this is a family matter of the Zhan family. I just wanted to confirm whether the child's bloodline is that of the Zhan family. What do you mean by constantly obstructing me?"
Su Mengyu said gently, "Mrs. Zhan, I know you're unhappy, but please understand. I'm just helping to look after the child. The child must be safe and sound in my care. As I said, if you want to do a paternity test, Zhan Yanxun's consent is required. I will definitely cooperate if he agrees. How about I call Zhan Yanxun now?"
"Why make a phone call? Just bring the child over and pull out a couple of hairs, it's that simple. Why make it so complicated?"
After Yan Lan finished speaking, she reached out to snatch the child. Su Mengyu kicked her directly, and Yan Lan fell onto the glass table. Most of the things on the table fell and shattered on the floor, and the scene instantly became a mess.
Su Mengyu was also stunned. Her kick just now was just a defensive move and she didn't use much force. Yan Lan fell so far and broke everything. This was too exaggerated.
At this moment, Yan Lan cried and said, "Mom, look how arrogant Miss Su is! I was just following your instructions to get a paternity test done for the child, and she actually kicked me away. She doesn't even care about you before she's even entered the Zhan family. If she really does enter the Zhan family, will she still care about me, her sister-in-law? I think I'll be worse off than a dog."
Little Jiangbao: You mean auntie, you faked a fall! If you like getting hurt so much, why don't you get your foot run over by a car when you go out!
Xie Qingyi hadn't expected Su Mengyu to actually do it. Her face darkened as she said, "Miss Su, you've gone too far. Give me the child right now."
Xie Qingyi got angry, and Su Mengyu hugged the child tightly.
She didn't know what to do either; after all, he was Zhan Yanxun's mother, and she couldn't resort to violence. Just then, Zhan Yanxun returned. Seeing the mess, he angrily asked, "What happened?"
Yan Lan immediately stepped forward and said, "Yan Xun, it's good that you're back. Mom just wanted to pluck a few strands of hair from the child to do a paternity test, but I didn't expect Miss Su to make such a big deal out of it and refuse to let us do the paternity test. She was very rude to Mom and even kicked me, which is why this place is in such a mess. I really didn't expect Miss Su to have such a fierce temper. Who would dare to provoke her?"
