CHAPTER 677: CHAPTER 677: LOVE GROWS EVER DEEPER (122)

If the results truly indicate a blood relation, they must acknowledge her back into the family.

In a usual paternity testing hospital, results could take hours, days, or even half a month, but here, under urgent circumstances, the outcome was delivered in a mere forty minutes.

When the paternity test results came out blazing hot.

The couple held their breath at the very moment they saw it together.

The results confirmed that she was indeed their second daughter they had abandoned over twenty years ago.

Yin Qi felt a surge of heartache upon seeing this.

Yu Wen, however, was ecstatic.

Before they could even sit down, Gu Lili was awake.

As clever as she was, how could she not realize her current predicament, "You drugged the tea."

Yu Wen, tears welling in her eyes, sat beside her and handed over the test results, "Take a look at this."

Gu Lili took it and glanced, "This... How is this possible? Isn’t your eldest daughter 24 years old? I’m 24 too."

"It’s because your sister Cheng Yi’s age was altered by two years." Yu Wen grabbed her and cried bitterly, "Lili, Mom and Dad are sorry, we didn’t abandon you, it was really out of compulsion, back then the internal strife was very intense, someone took you away secretly."

Gu Lili didn’t know why, but she felt no excitement, her expression calm. Sensing this, Yu Wen awkwardly let her go.

"Since you’ve done the paternity test, there’s not much else I can say. I truly didn’t expect you to be my biological parents. Seeing those photos online, I just thought it was a case of doppelgängers."

Yu Wen gripped her hand earnestly, "We’ve been looking for you all these years, but never heard any news of you. Lili, now that we’ve found you, Mom and Dad will surely make it up to you. It’s just that your father has only just taken office a few days ago, and can’t reveal your identity yet."

Gu Lili was about to speak when she saw Long Yubei shaking his head at her with a solemn expression. Understanding his cue, she spoke very casually, "There’s no need to disclose it. After all, I never intended to acknowledge you as family,"

Hearing this, Yin Qi and Yu Wen were momentarily stunned, "What did you say... You do not acknowledge us?"

"Yes, I do not. You gave birth to me, and for that, I thank you for this life. My master took me in and raised me, teaching me all the knowledge she once learned, without ever attending school. Although I’ve never called her Mom, in my heart, she is my one and only mother, irreplaceable by anyone. Now I’m 24, have been through life’s ups and downs, and I no longer need biological parents or any additional family members. I have children and money now, so being the President’s daughter won’t add any happiness to my life. I hope this matter stays secret forever, for your benefit and mine. On that note, I’ll take my leave."

Gu Lili stood up, bowed slightly, and turned to leave.

By the time the couple recovered, she had already left.

"She... she... she... she doesn’t acknowledge us?"

Yin Qi’s face showed pain, "Didn’t you see she looked as indifferent to the test results as if she hadn’t seen them at all? She simply doesn’t care."

"I knew it, this child won’t be close to us anymore; truly, she was born in vain." Yu Wen, not knowing if it was anger or something else, spoke without mincing words, "It was right to have thrown her away back then, otherwise, raising her would have just produced an ingrate."
