Ye Qingning blinked, wasn't this the old lady she had talked to at the bus station before?
The old lady obviously saw her too and greeted her with a smile.
Ye Qingning stood up quickly and bowed to the two of them. Others also stood and greeted the two old men. After the two sat down, as juniors, they sat down again.
"Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye are so lucky. Look at these children, each one is prettier than the other. I heard that my youngest daughter has also been selected for the national team?" Li Lanxin glanced at a few people with a smile, like a loving old lady next door.
"You've given me the award, let the children live up to their own expectations."
After Jiang Lanxi and Li Lanxin exchanged polite words, Chen Wenxiong coughed and brought the topic back.
He placed a document on the table, and several people's eyes were attracted to the document. Ye Qingning pursed her lips, her expression a little nervous, and her hands unconsciously clutched her skirt.
"This is the paternity test report of Ning Ning and my daughter."
Ye Shaohua looked serious and reached out to take it, but Chen Wenxiong pressed the document with his hand.
"Mr. Chen, what are you doing?"
"My wife and I have not opened this report yet."
As soon as the words came out, several members of the Ye family looked at each other, not understanding Chen Wenxiong's intentions.
"My wife and I like Ning Yatou very much. Today, no matter what the outcome is, we hope to have a relationship with Ning Yatou and let her be our granddaughter. If Ning Yatou is willing, please trouble Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye to make her our granddaughter." Witness, if Ning Yatou doesn’t want to, we won’t force it.”
As soon as the words came out, several people were stunned. Ye Qingning blinked and looked at the two old men in front of him. He couldn't tell what his emotions were, but his heart was beating fast.
"I...I am willing." Ye Qingning hesitated for a moment, but after Ye An silently patted her back, she seemed to have the confidence to speak out her true thoughts.
Hearing Ye Qingning's answer, the two old men seemed to be relieved. Even Chen Wenxiong showed a rare smile, and the wrinkles on his face became more obvious.
He let go of his hand and pushed the document in front of Ye Shaohua. Ye Shaohua took it, opened the document bag under everyone's gaze, and took out the report inside. He looked seriously and looked through the report.
The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Several people held their breath, waiting for the final results to be announced.
Ye Shaohua was stunned for a moment when he saw the final identification result. Jiang Lanxi was the first to pull out the report, wanting to punch a hole in the paper.
She looked at Ye Qingning, and Ye Qingning also looked at her, with expectation, fear, and uneasiness in his eyes.
Jiang Lanxi nodded and handed the report to Ye Qingning. With the report in Ye Qingning's hand, Ye An and the others immediately moved their heads over, making the hall even quieter.
"How?" Chen Wenxiong was calm.
Ye Qingning looked at him and put the report on the table. It showed that Ye Qingning and Chen Xi were related as mother and daughter.
"Now that things have happened, this result is no longer very important." Chen Wenxiong and Li Lanxin's reactions were much calmer than those of the Ye family. At their age, they have seen through many things.
The most important thing is to find it. Originally they just hoped that this child could make their daughter return to normal, but after meeting and understanding Ye Qingning, their thoughts changed slightly.
And after knowing that Ye Qingning went to see Chen Xi, they became more and more sure of their thoughts.
They were undoubtedly disappointed that Ye Qingning could not wake up Chen Xi, but they also knew that Ye Qingning was a good child, and the grievances of the previous generation should not be involved in her, so they did not read the appraisal report in advance, but asked for recognition. The idea of her being the granddaughter of two people.
"Since Ning Ning is a child of our Chen family, she naturally wants to recognize her ancestors and return to the clan. Now Ning Ning has some unfair reputation in the Ye family. We want to hold a recognition banquet to recognize Ning Ning back in her glory. What do you think?"
"No!" Ye Qi immediately rejected Chen Wenxiong's proposal.
The unexpected rejection made Chen Wenxiong frown.
"With all due respect, if Ning Ning is recognized back to the Chen family, I'm afraid she will really be criticized."
Chen Wenxiong and Li Lanxin have lived for most of their lives and have never seen anything. Even if they encounter such an unexpected situation, they are very calm.
"Tell me about it." Chen Wenxiong's eyes were cloudy but very sharp. The younger members of the Chen family would unconsciously avoid his eyes when they saw him, but Ye Qi kept looking at him without any intention of looking away. This made Chen Wenxiong Watch with admiration.
"Ye An, please take Ningning back to her room first." Ye Qi looked at Ye Qingning, and after receiving her uneasy look, he rubbed her head.
Ye An didn't say anything, and took Ye Qingning upstairs.
Knowing that Ye An had brought Ye Qingning back to the room, Ye Qi continued the topic just now.
"According to my parents, Aunt Chen Xi gave birth to a child out of wedlock. If Ning Ning is recognized, what identity should she be in?"
"This..." Chen Wenxiong was immersed in the joy of thinking about his granddaughter. When Ye Qi asked this question, he was rarely silenced.
"Ning Ning was taken back. She is indeed acknowledging her ancestors, but how will outsiders evaluate her? An illegitimate daughter? Mr. Chen, I believe you also know what is the most taboo of our class. Wasn't it just for fame that you did it? Did you choose to hide the fact that Aunt Chen Xi eloped with a man and even gave birth to a child out of wedlock? "
"Ye Qi!" Ye Shaohua reminded Ye Qi to pay attention to his wording, but Chen Wenxiong raised his hand to signal Ye Qi to continue speaking.
"Even if you don't care, Ning Ning is still young, and she is at least an adopted daughter in the Ye family, an adopted daughter or an illegitimate daughter. If you have to choose one, I believe you will choose the former. Furthermore, once Ning Ning is recognized When we go back, what happened to Aunt Chen Xi back then will most likely be discovered, and even her current appearance will cause outsiders to have more speculations about Ning Ning, such as..."
Ye Qi paused and wanted to use a more tactful word. But Chen Wenxiong's eyes dimmed and he took over Ye Qi's words.
"If people find out about Chen Xi's madness, Qing Ning will not only be criticized for her identity, but she will even be questioned as to whether she inherited it from her mother."
There was no emotional ups and downs in Chen Wenxiong's words, and everyone present was silent.
This is a fact and beyond reproach. For Ye Qingning, the best choice is to stay in the Ye family. At least as an adopted daughter, she is still the daughter of the Ye family.
But if the identity becomes that of an unknown biological father, a child born out of wedlock, and the mother went crazy while she was still pregnant with her... any of these factors can make Ye Qingning lose her reputation in this circle.
This is why Ye Qi asked Ye An to take Ye Qingning upstairs. If these words were said in front of her, no matter what her mood was, it would be hurtful to her.
The living room fell into silence for once.
