Chapter 78

“Are you sure?” This was the second time Fu Qingyun had asked Li Zhengyin this question. After all, this person went from a 500 square meter villa to an 800 square meter one. It wasn’t just an extra 300 square meters; it was almost double the price.

Li Zhengyin nodded. This set was a bit bigger. Xu Zhiqian came from a single-parent family and didn’t have a good life when she was a child. Her Omega mother raised Xu Zhiqian by herself. Li Zhengyin thought that when the time came, she could also bring Xu Zhiqian’s mother to live with them. Of course, her own parents too. The more, the merrier.

But she guessed her parents wouldn’t come. Since they found out Li Zhengyin was married, her parents were either traveling or on their way to travel. They rarely cared about her business.

“I was thinking of bringing my mother-in-law to live with us.”

Fu Qingyun often heard 12138 talk about family dramas. They all said that a mother-in-law would not get along with her daughter-in-law, but a mother-in-law would love her son-in-law more and more. What mother-in-law wouldn’t like a son-in-law like Tiger? “But don’t you think it would be inconvenient for two generations to live together?”

“How could it be? If we have children later, her mother can also help take care of Ashen. At times like this, a mother makes you feel more secure.”

It was the first time Fu Qingyun had heard this. “Is that so?” She took out a black card from her bag and handed it to Li Zhengyin. “Take it. I’ll deduct it directly from your dividends at the end of the year.”

“Thanks for being so generous, boss.” Li Zhengyin snatched the card from Fu Qingyun’s hand. It wasn’t that she didn’t have enough money. It was a good thing she brought Fu Qingyun along.

Li Zhengyin happily followed the sales lady to sign the contract. Fu Qingyun, on the other hand, was thinking about what Li Zhengyin had said. Su Ziqin had mentioned before that she wanted a child, but Su Ziqin didn’t seem to want to find her own family now.

Ring, ring, ring. Her phone rang. Fu Qingyun’s thoughts were interrupted. She looked at the caller ID. It was a number she had seen before. Fu Qingyun never saved numbers. There was only one contact in her entire phone, and that was Su Ziqin.

If Su Ziqin hadn’t whined and begged Fu Qingyun to give her a note, Fu Qingyun probably wouldn’t have saved a single number. In her opinion, since she could remember them anyway, saving numbers was a bit of a waste of time. Just like the number she had now, Wu Jianjun had shown it to her not long ago.

“Godfather,” Fu Qingyun answered the phone.

Wu Jianjun’s tone on the other end of the line was a little too excited to be suppressed. “Qingyun, are you busy? Are you free today? I have something I need to talk to you about.”

Hearing Wu Jianjun’s tone, Fu Qingyun knew that Wu Jianjun had confirmed Su Ziqin’s identity. “Godfather, I hope she can find her family, but don’t force her.”

“You know?” Wu Jianjun said in surprise. Then he realized that Fu Chenlan must have told Fu Qingyun about this. He couldn’t help but feel a little grateful to Fu Chenlan. “Qingyun, the situation is very complicated. Ziqin’s mother’s mental state has not been very good recently…”

At this point, Wu Jianjun suddenly stopped. Some things not only hurt one person but also caused irreparable damage to an entire family.

“Godfather, at three in the afternoon, come to the Bureau of Housing Management to find me. We’ll talk. I hope you can tell me the whole story, and I’ll find time to tell her.”

Wu Jianjun’s throat bobbed. His voice was a little choked up. “Okay, I’ll see you then.”

Wu Jianjun hung up the phone. He looked down at the appraisal report in his hand, then looked up at the study door. He wondered if he should knock and go in.

“Commander, why are you standing at the door and not going in?” If Su Ziqin were here, she would definitely recognize this person. Although it was just a quick glance in country Y, there weren’t many Omegas who were military doctors.

“Lu Nian, how many times have I told you? We’re not in the army now. Don’t call me ‘Commander.’” Wu Jianjun hid the appraisal report behind his back.

Lu Nian saw his small movement and looked behind him with curiosity. “What are you hiding?”

“What are you looking at? It’s classified,” Wu Jianjun glared at her. Lu Nian shrugged. “Fine, I won’t look. Why are you so fierce?”

Seeing this, Wu Jianjun softened his tone. “How’s your father’s health recently?”

“As you know, the General has old injuries from when he was young on the battlefield. His bones ache whenever it rains. We had a check-up a couple of days ago. It’s just rheumatism and some old injuries,” Lu Nian said.

Lu Nian was transferred to Jing City. Besides her position at Jing City Military Medical University, she was also responsible for taking care of Wu Yuanhao.

Wu Jianjun rubbed his chin, lowering his head slightly so as not to look at Lu Nian. “How’s his mental state?” Can he handle being shocked? Wu Jianjun didn’t dare to ask this question. Although Lu Nian wasn’t a blabbermouth, this was a matter of the Wu family’s history, and Wu Jianjun didn’t want to broadcast it to her.

Lu Nian looked at Wu Jianjun in surprise. “General Wu’s mental state is very good. Much better than some other old people his age.”

“That’s good.” Wu Jianjun nodded. It was better to tell his father about this, but before dealing with Su Ziqin, he shouldn’t tell his sister-in-law and his mother yet.

Just as Wu Jianjun was relieved and was about to knock on the study door, the study door opened by itself. The old male Alpha was very tall, his back straight. He was wearing a vintage Zhongshan suit that was neat and proper.

Wu Yuanhao’s eyes were like those of a seasoned male lion on the grasslands. He looked at Wu Jianjun with a hint of arrogance. “You’ve been muttering at the door for a while. Get in here.”

“Okay,” Wu Jianjun said with a fawning smile.

Wu Yuanhao looked at Lu Nian. His tone was clearly a little more kind. “Xiao Lu, you should go back. No check-up for today.”

“Okay, I’ll come back in a few days. You must get another check-up before the state banquet.”

Wu Yuanhao nodded gently. “I know.”

After Lu Nian left, the smile on Wu Yuanhao’s face completely disappeared. He walked into the study with a stern [Read on BaiLianTales]face. Wu Jianjun’s heart sank. Judging by this posture, Father doesn’t seem to be in a very good mood.

Wu Jianjun walked into the study, slowly closed the door, and walked to the desk. “Father.”

Wu Yuanhao sat with his back to him, holding a dragon-headed cane in his hand, his thumb stroking the dragon’s mouth. “The military medical university said you took a DNA sample from A-Jing. They also said you took a paternity test this morning.”

“Hmm,” Wu Jianjun grunted. As expected, I was too impatient. He couldn’t hide this little action from his father’s eyes.

Wu Yuanhao turned around, the corners of his eyes slightly red. “Is that child still alive?”

“Father, let me explain first…”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Wu Yuanhao’s voice suddenly rose. He stomped the cane on the ground. “I’m asking you, is A-Jing’s child still alive?”

Wu Jianjun was shocked by Wu Yuanhao’s imposing manner. Thinking of Su Ziqin’s current attitude, Wu Jianjun closed his eyes. After a moment, he finally made up his mind and handed the paternity test to Wu Yuanhao.

“Father, she’s still alive.”

Wu Yuanhao took the report, not looking at the lengthy explanations. He moved his gaze directly to the result of the report.

“It has been proven that Su Ziqin and Wu Jing and Meng Yanan have a parent-child relationship.” Just a few short words were enough to make Wu Yuanhao’s eyes red. He covered his frantic heartbeat. The report was crumpled in his hand.

“Where is she? Is she doing well?” Wu Yuanhao’s fingertips were covered in calluses, a sign that he had been playing with weapons for a long time. Now, they were gently caressing the name “Su Ziqin,” as if he were stroking the top of a child’s head.

Wu Jianjun saw that Wu Yuanhao’s emotions had only been excited for a moment before returning to normal. He was relieved. “She was adopted by the Su family when she was a child. It was a little tough when she was young, but she was a good kid. She got into Qing University and now she’s a boss with her own company. She’s living a very happy life now and loves her Alpha very much.”

“Alpha?” Wu Yuanhao’s face changed. He slapped the report on the desk and said coldly, “She’s married? Whose Alpha? Is she good to her?” His granddaughter had just been found, and he already knew that some wild Alpha had abducted her. Wu Yuanhao’s displeasure was understandable.

Wu Jianjun took two steps back, afraid that he would get caught in his father’s anger. “Fu family’s Fu Qingyun.”

“Chenlan’s child?” Wu Yuanhao was a little surprised. This fate was a little… He thought back to when the Gu family’s Omega had broken off the engagement with this old cow and went with Fu Chenlan without hesitation. Decades later, Fu Chenlan’s child had abducted his granddaughter again.

Thinking of this, Wu Yuanhao looked at Wu Jianjun with contempt. “You useless thing. That girl from the Gu family didn’t like you and ran off with Chenlan. Now my granddaughter has been abducted by her child. Do we, the Wu family, owe the Fu family something?”

Wu Jianjun thought that he couldn’t be blamed for this. If Qingli didn’t like him, there was nothing he could do. “Father, don’t be angry.”

“How can I not be angry? What kind of person is Fu Qingyun? What does she look like? What’s her character like? What’s her Alpha level?” The army was a place that valued Alpha levels very much. High-level Alphas could perform many difficult missions and were the backbone of the army.

As a great general of China, Wu Yuanhao naturally cared about this. He thought for a moment. Fu Qingyun’s level probably wasn’t very high. Otherwise, with an old stubborn guy like Gu Xingbang, he would have definitely dragged Fu Qingyun into the army.

“I didn’t ask about that,” Wu Jianjun said, scratching his head. The last time they met, Fu Qingyun didn’t release any pheromones, so he didn’t know her level. Besides, in this day and age, who would release their pheromones in public for no reason? “But Qingyun is very beautiful, like a little fairy. Ziqin loves her very much.”

The three words “little fairy” made Wu Yuanhao’s expression turn to one of disdain. A proper Alpha acting like a fairy. She must be weak. But then he thought about how much his granddaughter liked her, and Wu Yuanhao felt a little conflicted.

“Oh, right, Father. I’ve arranged to meet with Qingyun this afternoon.”

Wu Yuanhao asked suspiciously, “Why?” He remembered that this kid had gone to see Chenlan’s family as soon as he returned to Jing City. He was just a distant godfather. Why was he always trying to get close to them?

“It’s a bit complicated. Ziqin had a tough childhood. She doesn’t have much of a sense of family and doesn’t really want to find us. Fu Chenlan told me that only Qingyun can convince Ziqin.”

Wu Yuanhao was silent for a moment. He looked up at Wu Jianjun. “I’ll go with you.” He wanted to meet his granddaughter-in-law.

Wu Jianjun looked at Wu Yuanhao, who looked like a lion before a hunt, and knew that his father was probably going to make things difficult for Qingyun.
