Chapter 35 Paternity Testing
Shen Xue stared at the painting and found that the patterns in the original painting became shallower and shallower, and in the end it was even completely invisible.
"How did this happen?" Shen Xue muttered.
"Grandpa can't just leave a blank piece of paper, right?" Mu Ran looked at the painting, and a cloud of doubt also appeared in his heart.
The two of them looked at the painting with barely any pattern visible, and didn't know what to do.
"Why don't you take a picture under the light?" Mu Ran remembered that he couldn't see things clearly when he was a child, but he could see clearly under the strong light, so he tried to suggest.
"Husband, look." Shen Xue took the painting under the light and observed it carefully, and sure enough, she found something different.
Mu Ran hurried forward.
"It seems like a list." Mu Ran looked at the piece of paper faintly peeking through the painting and said softly.
Shen Xue changed the painting from several angles, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong.
"Husband, there seems to be a mezzanine in here."
Mu Ran stepped forward to check it, he touched the painting with his hand, it seemed that it was indeed much thicker than the ordinary scroll painting, he quickly took out a small knife from the drawer on the desk and compared it to the painting.
He spread the painting on his desk, cut it little by little along the seams, and sure enough, the painting was divided into two layers. Just when Shen Xue and Mu Ran were shocked and didn't know what to do, a piece of paper fell out of the crack!
Shen Xue hurriedly got up and picked up the paper that had just fallen on the ground, picked it up and looked at it.
"Husband! Look! Shen Xue's face instantly turned pale, and she was startled by the content on the paper.
Shen Xue held on to the table, feeling that she was about to lose her footing, and her eyes were full of disbelief when she looked at Mu Ran.
Mu Ran hurriedly rushed forward to help the crumbling Shen Xue and took the paper in her hand.
"Wife, this...."Mu Ran was also frightened, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Husband, it turns out that Shen Yu is not Dad's child!" Shen Xue let out a long breath, her voice trembling.
Mu Ran looked at the paternity test of Shen Yu and Shen Tang who fell out of the painting, and his heart beat fast: "Wife, I understand, I finally understand." ”
Shen Xue looked up at Mu Ran.
"This paternity test says a lot of things."
Shen Xue nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, I also understand why Shen Yu and Chen Hui wanted to kill their grandfather." ”
As she spoke, Shen Xue's face was already full of tears unconsciously, and Mu Ran knew that she must have thought of her grandfather again.
"Wife, you put this paternity test away first." Mu Ran motioned for Shen Xue to put this important evidence in the safe, and then continued: "It's been a few years since Grandpa passed away, and this bit of evidence in our hands alone can't prove that Chen Hui and Shen Yu are the murderers. ”
Shen Xue's eyes looked out the window, as if she was recalling something: "Then what should we do now, husband?" ”
Mu Ran looked at Shen Xue's flushed cheeks and said softly: "Wife, I know you really want to get justice for your grandfather, but it is imperative that we find strong evidence." ”
Whether it was the doctor's certificate or this paternity test, it was just their reasoning and speculation about the death of his grandfather, and Mu Ran's heart revealed a faint worry.
Shen Xue understood what Mu Ran meant, he should be afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions the next time he met Chen Hui's mother and daughter, and finally startled the snake and broke the matter. Shen Xue took a long breath, then nodded at Mu Ran to reassure him.
Just when Shen Xue and Mu Ran reached a consensus and decided to find evidence first, there was a knock on the office door.
"Mr. Shen, there is a lady downstairs looking for you." The secretary whispered outside the door.
"Okay, I'll be right here." Shen Xue locked everything in the safe, and then followed the secretary downstairs.
As soon as I walked downstairs, I saw a familiar figure sitting in the reception area of the company hall.
"Miss Zhou?" Shen Xue looked at Zhou Yan and was very curious.
How could she come to find herself, except for a few "not very friendly" meetings between the two people a long time ago, she had hardly met this Mu Ran's ex-girlfriend, and this time the other party would come to the company to find her, Shen Xue was naturally full of doubts.
"Designer Shen, I came to you this time to talk about business." Zhou Yan knew where Shen Xue's questions came from, and she decided to get straight to the point. As she spoke, she brushed the hair from her ears back with her hand, and stared at Shen Xue with a pair of eyes.
Shen Xue looked at the woman in front of her, she thought that the other party should not have a good impression of her, what business could there be between her and her?
"Miss Zhou, please upstairs." Shen Xue's tone was polite and detached.
Shen Xue took Zhou Yan to the conference room next to her office.
"What does Miss Zhou mean by talking about business?" Shen Xue poured Zhou Yan a glass of water, and then went straight to the point.
"Miss Shen, I read the Yinxue series you designed for Mohs jewelry some time ago, and I like it very much, so I want to ask you to be the jewelry designer for my marriage." Zhou Yan smiled, without the hostility that the two had met several times before.
Shen Xue was very surprised when she heard the news that Zhou Yan was going to get married, she remembered that Zhou Yan had only returned to China for half a year, how could it be so sudden.
"Congratulations, Miss Zhou, thank you for your trust, but I have a lot of plans at hand recently, I don't know if you can accept other excellent designers in our company to design for you."
Shen Xue didn't lie, she has been busy with her grandfather's affairs recently, Mo's next season's new products have not yet been finalized, and if they promise Zhou Yan, the two of them will definitely communicate privately often, thinking that Zhou Yan is Mu Ran's ex-girlfriend, Shen Xue is still a little embarrassed in her heart, so she had to find an excuse to refuse.
Zhou Yan seemed to have guessed that Shen Xue would refuse, and there was no change in her expression.
"Miss Shen, I came to your company because I admired your work, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for other designers to design what I want." Zhou Yan looked into Shen Xue's eyes squarely and said very sincerely.
"Miss Shen, I know what your concerns are, you can rest assured, I don't have any opinion on you for a long time, about the schedule you said, it doesn't matter, I can wait, and my wedding is in three months, there is plenty of time." There was a smile on the corner of Zhou Yan's mouth, and it was difficult for Shen Xue to refuse her tone.
Shen Xue looked at the woman opposite, a little confused about what medicine was sold in her gourd, but the other party had already taken a big step back, and it was really difficult for him to refuse.
"Miss Zhou, my design fee..."Shen Xue made a look of wanting to say something.
"Don't worry, I understand the rules, this is a deposit." Zhou Yan took out a check from her bag and deliberately shook it in front of Shen Xue.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, six." Shen Xue took the check, swept it with her afterglow, and counted it silently in her heart.
I have long heard that Mu Ran's ex-girlfriend is rich, and she is really generous.
"When the design comes out, I will pay you ten times the deposit." Zhou Yan said while observing Shen Xue's face: "I don't know if Designer Shen thinks it's enough." ”
"Enough is enough, I asked the secretary to take Miss Zhou down to sign the contract." Shen Xue smiled on her face, no matter who she was, she wouldn't have trouble with money.
Looking at the back of Zhou Yan leaving, Shen Xue sighed in her heart, this rich person is indeed different.
Since Shen Yu suddenly appeared to help Shen's company get through the difficulties, her prestige in the company has become higher and higher, and the old lady of the Shen family has also trusted Shen Yu more and more, and she can't wait to hand over the company to Shen Yu now.
"Grandma, the new air conditioner has been sent to Mohs, and the quality inspection has passed." Shen Yu was in Mrs. Shen's office, reporting her work with a smile.
Old Lady Shen's face bloomed with a smile, she didn't expect that Sang Yan's chip would be completely compatible with her own family's air conditioner.
"Okay, good, it's good." Old Lady Shen couldn't hide the happiness in her tone: "Xiaoyu, this time it's really thanks to you." ”
Shen Xue pretended to be modest: "Grandma, this is what I should do." Since there is no problem with the quality inspection, then the company has started mass production, do you think it is okay? ”
"That's nature. Now that this matter is handed over to you, everything is up to you to decide. ”
"Grandma, what about the funds?" Mass production, without enough funds will certainly not be able to sustain it.
"You go and calculate the specific expenses, and then just find the financial allocation." The stone in Mrs. Shen's heart finally fell to the ground, and she would agree to anything Shen Yu mentioned now.
When Shen Yu heard her grandmother say this, a smile instantly spread on her face: "Okay, grandma, I'll go now." ”
Shen Yu now has the full management of the Mohs project, so it will naturally be much easier to do things, as soon as she left the old lady Shen's office door, she took out her mobile phone and made a call: "Mom, grandma agreed, you let LISA come to my office." ”
Hanging up the phone, Shen Yu's face inadvertently showed a smile, this time, she decided to strike first.
Since Shen Xue agreed to help Zhou Yan design wedding jewelry, she has always mentioned Zhou Yan at home, intentionally or unintentionally, and said that "you must first understand the customer's personality and preferences before you can design jewelry that is truly suitable for the customer." ”
As a designer, it is naturally good to understand customers in many aspects, but the problem is that Shen Xue's channel to understand Zhou Yan turned out to be - ask Mu Ran. This really made Mu Ran miserable, because since then, there has often been such a conversation in their villa:
"Husband, do you think Miss Zhou's usual personality is quiet or lively?"
"I was pretty lively in college."
The atmosphere fell into a burst of embarrassment ....
"Wife, that's not what I meant."
"I know husband, you're definitely not the kind of person who doesn't know anything about your ex-girlfriend."
Shen Xue had a smile on her face, but her tone was filled with anger: "You can sleep on the sofa tonight!" ”
Mu Ran's mind was full of question marks, and a chilling feeling appeared in his heart.
After a few more days, Shen Xue was drawing, and Mu Ran leaned over.
"Husband, do you think Miss Zhou will like the design of this moon?"
"I don't know, how do I know what she likes!"
Mu Ran thought to himself: "I was fooled by you last time, will I still be fooled this time?" As long as Miss Zhou is mentioned, I don't know anything! ”
Who knew that Shen Xue's face sank again after hearing this: "Husband, I'm working, why are you so uncooperative with me, don't you want my design drawings to be called back and redone?" ”
Mu Ran didn't dare to speak.
"I asked you just to know more about customers, and you actually thought about it, does this prove that you have a ghost in your heart?"
Mu Ran looked at Shen Xue with a sincere face, so she had to say softly: "I should like it, I remember that she said that the moon is very pure." ”
Shen Xue's face was as angry as pig's liver: "Oh! ”
Mu Ran suddenly felt bad.
"You sleep on the couch tonight..."
What the hell!!
"Wife, let's not take Zhou Yan's list, okay..."
