Chapter 170 Yuan Yuan is not our daughter

Deng Rui had been thinking about moving, and she could use the fear of Ah Chong's family causing trouble as an excuse.

That way, Jiang Die wouldn't overthink it.

Jiang Yuan also had the idea of ​​moving, because the East Coast Villas were ready for handover.

That night, Deng Rui sat on the sofa watching rental videos recommended by the real estate agent.

"Stop looking." Jiang Yuan sat down next to her, blinking her bright eyes. "I've already chosen a house."

Deng Rui put down her phone and asked, "Which apartments are you looking at?"

Jiang Yuan frowned, thought for a moment, and shook her head, "I forgot to count."

"Why do you need to count just a few rooms?" Deng Rui thought she was joking.

Jiang Yuan: "..."

Seeing Deng Rui pick up her phone to look at apartments again, Jiang Yuan simply locked her phone and said with a serious expression, "I've really found the right one, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"Okay, okay, I won't watch it then." Deng Rui had no choice but to put down her phone and glance at the wall clock. "What time is it? Why isn't your dad back yet?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Jiang Dashan pushed open the door and came in.

"Dad's back. Mom was just talking about you." Jiang Yuan said, then noticed his expression was a little off. "Dad, what's wrong?"

Jiang Dashan looked at her, his eyes slightly red.

Deng Rui put down her crossed legs and stepped forward to ask, "Why are you crying? Were you bullied at work?"

Jiang Dashan shook his head, squinting hard to hold back his tears, "It's nothing, it's just red from the wind."

"Really?" Jiang Yuan was skeptical.

"When has Dad ever lied to you?" Jiang Dashan said as he walked towards his room. "I'm going to take a shower."

Jiang Yuan looked at his dejected figure and frowned, saying, "Mom, ask Dad what's wrong later. I feel like something's off about him."

"Okay." Deng Rui nodded, though she was also a little worried.

Jiang Yuan sat back down on the sofa, thought for a moment, picked up her phone and transferred two thousand yuan to her father via WeChat.

Is it because you're broke and feeling wronged?
When Deng Rui entered the room, Jiang Dashan had already finished showering and was lying in bed.

"Jiang Dashan, what's wrong with you?" She sat down at the dressing table to do her skincare routine.

The room was quiet, and Jiang Dashan lay silently in bed.

After Deng Rui finished applying eye cream, she lifted the blanket and lay down. Just as she was about to say something, Jiang Dashan suddenly turned around and hugged her.

"What happened?" Deng Rui frowned, sensing something was wrong. "Say something."

Jiang Dashan began to sob, "Wife..."

Deng Rui's heart sank suddenly, and her voice turned cold, "Have you been cheating on me?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Jiang Dashan said, both angry and helpless. "Am I the kind of irresponsible man?"

"What else?" Deng Rui looked him over suspiciously.

Jiang Dashan sighed, "I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it if you find out..."

Deng Rui's eyes darted around. "Apart from your infidelity, I can accept anything else."

"really?"

"What are you dawdling for? Speak up!"

Jiang Dashan pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Someone came to me today and said that Yuan Yuan is not our daughter, and that they are Yuan Yuan's biological parents."

"What?" Deng Rui looked at him in disbelief, then rolled her eyes. "What kind of joke is this? It's not funny at all."

Jiang Dashan looked distressed: "At first, I thought they were joking, but then they produced a paternity test..."

“A paternity test could be fake!” Deng Rui said confidently. “My own daughter, how could I possibly switch her at birth?”

“They did say that she was switched at birth in the hospital…” Jiang Dashan choked up. “They said that someone deliberately retaliated back then by switching all the newborns, and our biological daughter is still missing…”

"Impossible!" Deng Rui sat up, shaking her head vigorously. "I don't believe it!" Jiang Dashan also sat up, sighing, "I don't want to believe it either, but they produced the surveillance video from the hospital's neonatal ward back then..."

Deng Rui stared at him with red eyes, "Where is the video?"

Jiang Dashan turned around, picked up his phone, tapped a few times, and handed it to her.

Deng Rui took the phone and saw that the time and location shown on the surveillance video matched, and a feeling of unease suddenly rose in her heart.

In the video, a person dressed as a nurse is seen moving newborns from one crib to another, and even swapping out the name stickers used to identify the newborns.

"I still don't believe it!" Deng Rui threw her phone on the bed, covered her face, and broke down in tears.

Seeing his wife like this, Jiang Dashan felt very sad.

He reached out and pulled her into his arms. "Rui, it hurts me to see you like this."

"Why did this have to happen..." Deng Rui leaned against him, sobbing uncontrollably, "Why is God so cruel!"

Although she sometimes gets so angry with Jiang Yuan that she says she doesn't have this daughter, now that something like this has happened, she desperately wishes this was all just a dream.

"Perhaps it's just a prank," Jiang Dashan comforted him softly.

Deng Rui's emotions gradually calmed down.

Jiang Dashan gently wiped away her tears, "Don't cry, things will work themselves out."

Deng Rui asked in a hoarse voice, "What did they say when they came to see you?"

Jiang Dashan: "They said Yuan Yuan wasn't our biological child, showed me a paternity test and this video, and then left."

"Didn't they say anything else?" Deng Rui frowned in confusion.

Jiang Dashan shook his head. "No more."

"That's strange." A glimmer of hope rose in Deng Rui's heart. "Could it really be a prank?"

"I don't know," Jiang Dashan sighed. "I'm sorry, I was just too surprised and sad to ask too many questions."

"It's not your fault." Deng Rui patted his hand. "If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't care about anything else."

Before going to bed, she instructed, "You must never let Yuan Yuan know about this."

**
The next day.

Jiang Yuan got up early and found that Deng Rui's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Mom, what happened last night?"

Deng Rui, with her back to her, said, "Nothing's wrong."

Jiang Yuan asked worriedly, "Why are your eyes so swollen?"

Deng Rui said guiltily, "I... I was bitten by mosquitoes."

"Are your bites so symmetrical?" Jiang Yuan leaned closer to her, her face full of worry. "Did my dad do something to wrong you?"

"No." Deng Rui turned her back again. "How dare your dad? I'd slap him to death!"

"Then why are you crying like this?"

"I've already said it was a mosquito bite, why won't you believe me, child?"

Seeing that she was unwilling to talk about it, Jiang Yuan did not press her further.

At noon, she went directly to the building where Jiang Dashan worked to wait for him. The father and daughter then found a stir-fry restaurant to have lunch.

"Dad, why aren't you eating?" Jiang Yuan asked, noticing that he was eating absentmindedly.

Jiang Dashan quickly picked up his bowl and started eating, saying, "I'm eating."

Jiang Yuan placed a piece of pork rib in his bowl, a hint of scrutiny in her eyes. "Are you and your mother hiding something from me?"

Jiang Dashan immediately choked, "Cough cough cough... What nonsense are you talking about? Cough cough..."
