Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 532: Pretend It Till You Make It!

"..." Ji Weitian was speechless and choked up.

She had been worried whether Qin Nanyu had discovered something, but now, hearing it was just his grandfather’s wish, her heart suddenly relaxed with relief.

However, the moment she thought whether the Old Master might really have noticed something, the heart she had just let down was suspended once again.

Ever since she found out that Qin Nanyu was indeed Yaoyao’s biological father, Ji Weitian gradually realized that although Yaoyao looked like her, her behavior, movements, and that clever streak were all so much like Qin Nanyu.

From appearances alone, nothing seemed amiss, but whenever father and daughter were together, even strangers could easily spot their similarities.

During dinner today, her adoptive parents even mentioned inadvertently that Qin Nanyu’s affection for Yaoyao resembled that of her biological father, with no sense of discord, and lamented how wonderful it would be if they were indeed biologically related.

At that moment, Ji Weitian dared not respond at all, but she had not expected that in such a short time, a third person would see it...

Ji Weitian’s mind twitched, and the words burst from her mouth.

"Yaoyao has nothing to do with you, you don’t need to get a DNA test!"

"..." Qin Nanyu was taken aback by her sudden outburst, squinting suspiciously with narrowed dark pupils.

"Didn’t you tell me before that getting pregnant with Yaoyao was an accident, that you don’t know who her biological father is? How can you be so sure it’s not me? Maybe it was really me all those years ago..."

Qin Nanyu hadn’t finished speaking when Professor Fan’s recent words suddenly echoed in his mind.

The accident that had happened to Ji Weitian all those years ago was a disaster for her; no matter who that man was, to her, he represented a pain she did not wish to speak of.

By bringing this up now, apart from pushing her further away, there was no benefit.

Qin Nanyu’s pupils tightened slightly, noticing Ji Weitian glaring at him, and he wisely cut himself off, not continuing further.

"Let’s just assume we both know that Yaoyao isn’t my daughter; then how about taking the test just to comfort an old man? Can we do that?" Qin Nanyu asked in a negotiating tone.

Seeing Ji Weitian silent, he continued.

"My grandfather has heart disease and has just undergone bypass surgery. He’s getting old, and the doctors have instructed us not to stress him. His only obsession now is his great-granddaughter. If possible, I hope you agree to let Yaoyao play along in a pretense, just to make the old man happy, to fulfill his wish."

His words left Ji Weitian conflicted yet unable to refuse.

Reason told her she could not agree to this farce.

Because of the relationship between Yaoyao and Qin Nanyu, this mess could lead to serious trouble!

But she had heard quite a bit about Old Master Qin’s condition from the servants at the Qin Family Villa.

Qin Nanyu’s parents had a troubled relationship, and shortly after he was born, his mother left him behind and divorced his father.

His father, deeply affected by the event, also neglected his own son.

The father and son had a very distant relationship.

Qin Nanyu had practically grown up with his grandfather.

The Old Master was very fond of him, and indeed treated his grandson as the apple of his eye, but...

No amount of affection could stand up to the Old Master being obsessed with daughters.

This generation had neither a daughter nor a granddaughter.

The only hope was that Qin Nanyu would give birth to a great-granddaughter for him.

Now with the Old Master in poor health, and uncertain how much longer he could hold on, Ji Weitian worried that her concealment and refusal might ultimately turn into an irreparable regret...
