Chapter 529: Let Him Give Up Hope
But was this something he could decide?
He couldn’t even handle a confession...
Just as Qin Nanyu was about to toss his smartphone aside, the butler’s call came through.
Qin Nanyu’s brows frowned as he picked it up.
"Have Mr. and Mrs. Shen just arrived at the villa? Is there anything they’re not comfortable with?"
"No, it’s not that. Miss Ji’s adoptive parents are easygoing and honest people. They haven’t made any special requests and have settled in smoothly," the butler explained respectfully.
After finishing, he paused slightly before continuing.
"I am calling the young master because of the old master’s instructions..."
"My grandfather?" Qin Nanyu was startled.
The old man had just hung up on him—what other tricks was he up to now?
"Yes, the old master just called me to ask if the little miss is still staying at the Qin Family Villa. He wants me to sneak her out for a paternity test. He always feels that the little miss looks exactly like you did as a child, except cuter..."
The butler spoke tremblingly, hardly daring to breathe.
He reassured Qin Nanyu repeatedly that these were the old master’s exact words and that he would never dare contradict his own young master.
Hearing this, Qin Nanyu rubbed his brow wearily, unable to help but ask the butler, "What did you tell him in the beginning? I’ve already explained to him that Yaoyao is not my biological daughter. Why can’t he just let it go?"
The butler: "..."
Was this something he said? Clearly, the old master yearned for a great-granddaughter to the point of madness.
It didn’t matter to him that they hadn’t done a paternity test—if the results came back confirming that the little miss had no blood relation to his young master, the old man would probably still find some excuse to take someone else’s granddaughter and raise her in his own home.
In short, the little miss was too endearing—it wasn’t his fault.
The butler wore a look of innocence.
Qin Nanyu understood this to some extent.
After pondering for a moment, his thin lips parted slightly, "Just tell grandfather that Yaoyao’s biological father has appeared. Whether or not we do the paternity test, the result won’t change anything. Tell him to give up on this idea."
After saying this, Qin Nanyu hung up and lay back down on the hospital bed.
Staring at the ceiling, he questioned his life.
Less than three minutes later, he grabbed his smartphone again and sent a message to Ji Weitian.
-
At the Qin Family Villa.
Following the butler, Mr. and Mrs. Shen had just settled their things in the guest room when Ji Weitian arrived with the two children.
"Grandpa—"
"Grandma—"
As soon as the two little ones saw Mr. and Mrs. Shen, they dashed over, snuggling into their embrace from both sides.
Mr. Shen and Mrs. Lin had some reservations about moving to the Qin Family Villa, fearing they might disrupt their daughter. But seeing their granddaughter, they temporarily cast all other concerns aside, allowing themselves to be guided around the villa by the two children.
Although Ruirui had not been back in the country for long, he was the little master of the Qin Family Villa and knew it well.
Yaoyao was famously diligent; now, she not only managed Ji Weitian’s small household but also had a complete grasp on the ins and outs of the Qin Family Villa. Even the butler had to step aside in her presence, not to mention anyone else.
With the siblings working together, Mr. and Mrs. Shen didn’t need to worry about anything; Ji Weitian had everything arranged.
After a hearty meal and a chat with her parents to reassure them, Ji Weitian was about to return to her room to work when she received a message from Qin Nanyu.
There was no text, only a photo.
It was of him looking pitiable, lying alone on a hospital bed.
Ji Weitian pretended not to see it, quickly pocketing her phone.
