CHAPTER 290: CHAPTER 282: HANDING HER A DNA TEST REPORT

Flipping to the last page, Jin Jumo stared at the column with the test result clearly printed with 9999%, her pupils violently contracting, her fingers gripping the paper so hard it almost tore a hole in it.

Mu Qinnian didn’t miss Jin Jumo’s shocked and pale face, but at this moment, he didn’t say anything.

Time seemed to stretch on like a century, Jin Jumo slowly lifted her head, looking at Mu Qinnian’s reddening peach-blossom eyes, every expression on her face was one of disbelief.

Mu Qinnian took the evaluation report from her hand, his slender fingertips carefully smoothing out the wrinkled paper Jin Jumo had crumpled, then placed it into the folder, his cool voice slowly emerging, "Do you remember the time we ran into each other at the amusement park?"

Jin Jumo was submerged in extreme shock and couldn’t give him any response.

Mu Qinnian didn’t seem to expect her to respond, and continued on his own, "That day, I took some hair from your head and had it compared with mine in a DNA test. The result is what you just saw."

Jin Jumo’s lips trembled, "How could this be, how..."

"If you don’t believe it, we can go to the hospital and have our blood tested again." Mu Qinnian didn’t intend to give Jin Jumo a chance to escape, staring heavily at her, enunciating each word, "Little Mo, we are siblings, destined by the heavens, nothing can change that."

Jin Jumo inhaled, staring blankly at Mu Qinnian, "Siblings?"

"Yes." Mu Qinnian reached out, holding Jin Jumo’s clenched fist resting on the table.

Jin Jumo slowly lowered her head, staring at their clasped hands, still unable to believe it, suddenly raising her head to look at Mu Qinnian, "Liang Yi..."

Upon hearing her mention that name, a flash of undisguised disdain appeared on Mu Qinnian’s face, "A woman who abandoned her own daughter for wealth and glory is not worth remembering. Little Mo, from now on you have a brother, and your brother will protect you."

Little Mo, from now on you have a brother, and your brother will protect you...

Jin Jumo didn’t deny the impact these words had on her, but compared to accepting the fact that the man in front of her, whom she knew nothing about, was her brother, the latter was evidently more impactful.

Jin Jumo withdrew her hand, took a deep breath, her eyes filled with questions, but looking at Mu Qinnian, she suddenly didn’t know what to ask first.

Mu Qinnian understood the shock, panic, and confusion Jin Jumo was displaying at this moment.

Fortunately, Mu Qinnian didn’t see rejection or avoidance expressed on Jin Jumo’s face or in her eyes.

Mu Qinnian half-closed his deep eyes, deliberately lowering his voice, speaking slowly, "I know you have many doubts in your heart right now, ask me anything you want to know."

Jin Jumo tightened her fingers, staring at Mu Qinnian, "Are you also Liang Yi..."

"No."

Before Jin Jumo could finish asking, Mu Qinnian spoke in a cold voice, his eyes revealing a chill, showing his extreme unwillingness to be associated with Liang Yi in any way.

Jin Jumo noticed his displeasure, pressed her lips tightly, remained silent for a while, and then said, "Are we half-siblings?"

Mu Qinnian looked at her, "Yes."

Jin Jumo’s heart slowly sank, looking at Mu Qinnian.

Mu Qinnian slightly lowered his eyes, "My parents grew up together, their relationship was very good, and naturally ended up together as adults, marrying and having children. However, after I was born, my mother focused all her attention on me, while my father was busy with business, spending more time traveling for work than at home over the years.

Additionally, after returning home, he couldn’t get my mother’s attention, so he wanted to be home less. Once, my father went on a business trip to Z City, where he had to stay for several months for a project. During that time, he met that woman."

Mu Qinnian didn’t even want to mention Liang Yi’s name, which shows how much he despised her.

Jin Jumo, hearing this, had almost guessed the story’s process and ending.

Liang Yi spent her life chasing after prestigious wealth, always wanting to live a high-status life.

Meeting Mu Qinnian’s father, she would have used all her efforts to cling onto him.

When a man indulges in the youth and young body of a woman, sweet words and beautiful promises are always easily spoken.

At that time, Mu Qinnian’s father must have made beautiful promises to Liang Yi as well.

"There’s no wall in the world that can’t let the wind in, and my mother quickly discovered the affair between my father and that woman. My mother was strong-willed and, knowing my father had betrayed her, firmly demanded a divorce, with no one able to dissuade her. Her resolute attitude unexpectedly awakened my father, and he gave up his business in Z City, returning to Country C. But by the time he came back, my mother had taken me away from home," Mu Qinnian said, as though a dim layer of fog covered his deep eyes.
