You Are My Only Sunshine

Chapter 125: Chapter 125 Grasshoppers on a String
 

The visitor was none other than Chu Yi’s father, Chu Zhongtian.

Sitting down, Mo Zhenggang was anxious as he said, “Brother Chu, I really have no other options now. I know this is my family matter, and I shouldn’t trouble you with it. But as you can see, we’re truly finished.”

Chu Zhongtian frowned displeasedly, “This matter, indeed, you’ve handled foolishly! We’ve known each other for so many years, yet I never knew there was an issue with your daughters’ identities!”

“Brother Chu, I didn’t mean to deceive you all. The only way I could secure everything left by that woman was to do this. Plus, Xinyu is my daughter too, and I will leave everything to her in the future. You’ve seen how I’ve raised her over the years, but how could I have anticipated that Mo Jun would suddenly defy us like this? So, I was wondering if she might have discovered what happened back then…”

“Impossible!” Chu Zhongtian raised his hand to interrupt him, “We were very discreet about that matter. Who would know if you don’t speak of it?”

“But her temper has suddenly changed, and it all feels very strange,” Mo Zhenggang said doubtfully.

Chu Zhongtian also harbored suspicions, “If that’s the case, then just get rid of her. She’s become a nuisance now anyway.”

“How can we clear ourselves of suspicion if we get rid of her now?”

“That’s why you shouldn’t have concealed her identity. If I had known you’d left so many handles for her to rebel against you, I would have told you to get rid of her earlier! I really thought you were using just some illegitimate daughter!”

As it turned out, the woman his son was set to marry was the illegitimate daughter!

Mo Zhenggang caught the meaning in his words and could only nod guiltily, “Indeed, I handled this matter poorly. Brother Chu, at this point, my regret is useless, and only you can save us now.”

“Save you? The Mo Family has lost so much, what do you expect me to use to save you?” Chu Zhongtian asked authoritatively.

Mo Zhenggang knew he would shirk responsibility, and through gritted teeth said, “Brother Chu, we’re in the same boat. When you wanted me to do those deals years ago, I did them. You can’t just stand by and watch us die.”

Chu Zhongtian narrowed his eyes slightly, “But you also gained quite a lot. No matter, if you collapse like this, my losses are also severe. Rest assured, since we are to become family, I naturally won’t abandon you. However, you must be completely honest with me, no more hiding anything. If anything goes wrong again, don’t blame me for turning my back on you!”

“Yes, yes…” Mo Zhenggang quickly nodded, then clenched his teeth and finally revealed a truth.

…

After Mo Jun filed a lawsuit, the court swiftly issued a subpoena to Mo Zhenggang and his family.

In order to clarify Mo Jun’s lineage, the court agreed to conduct a fair and public paternity test.

Under media and public scrutiny, the lawsuit was processed quickly.

The date for the paternity test was set for a week later.

During this time, almost everyone believed that Mo Jun was the legitimate daughter of the Mo Family while Mo Xinyu was the illegitimate one.

Such reports were flying everywhere, naturally.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng, imprisoned in the basement, was unaware of all this and had no chance to find out.

Every day, he endured torture, biting down his pain, all to avoid betraying Miss Yun’s daughter.

He wasn’t afraid to die, but he would rather die than implicate Miss Xinyu!
