Chapter 16 - Chapter 16

Madame Chu watched, wide-eyed, as Shen Bijun fed the medicine to Chu Yu, unable to stop her in time.

All she could do was sigh and hand the test report in her hand to Chu Yanshen, "I didn't expect that just two hours of being out could lead to such chaos at home!"

Chu Yanshen took the report, looking confusedly at the parentage probability column, and saw it written: 99.99% probability of father-son relationship.

...How could this be?!

He looked at Shen Bijun in astonishment.

In fact, when she had repeatedly entangled him to take a DNA test, and when the two children had run over to embrace him, calling him "Daddy," he had been moved.

To get a DNA test done was but a matter of saying the word.

Yet this woman insisted they had dated for half a year...

He was certain that this woman had either mistaken someone else for him or that her lies were simply too clumsy.

But now this DNA report was truly in front of him, personally overseen by Madame Chu, making falsification impossible.

These two children... were actually his!

Lin Wanru was extremely shocked, she could never have imagined that the old woman would go behind her back to get a DNA test done, and seeing Chu Yanshen's expression, she knew the truth had come out.

In her fear that they would suspect her, she pointed accusingly at the remaining beverage and yelled, "Yanshen, the poison was planted by Shen Bijun! The doctor found the poison in the beverages she gave to the children! She hated us so much that she wanted to poison all three children to death!"

Chu Cimo had been playing games upstairs, casually boasting to his friends about his genius daughter and hadn't heard the commotion downstairs with his headphones on.

Only just coming downstairs, he was terrified to see the two children lying on the ground and hearing Lin Wanru's words, he angrily turned to Shen Bijun in his "old father" role, "If you hate her, hate her. Why would you poison my children as well? How could you be so ruthless!"

Shen Bijun was now filled with chilling anger.

The fury she had suppressed while trying to save the children was now churning and burning to the extreme.

The woman's eyes were very dark, seemingly calm, yet they harshly exposed a ferocity that was horrifying, as she stepped closer to Lin Wanru.

Though without evidence, she knew the poison had come from Lin Wanru!

She looked at the remaining beverages, her voice very low and heavy, "Were toxins found in all these beverages?"

The doctor spoke, "Toxins were found in all the beverages."

Lin Wanru, intent on framing her, surely wouldn't leave any loopholes: "What are you pretending for? To ensure they would randomly get a poisoned beverage, you'd definitely poison all of them, you..."

Shen Bijun didn't even wait for her to finish her sentence, stepping forward and grabbing Lin Wanru's chin with one hand while picking up a beverage with the other, twisting off the cap one-handed, and shoving it into Lin Wanru's mouth!

Lin Wanru's face turned pale with fright!

She struggled with both hands trying to push Shen Bijun away, but the woman stood firmly, her grip on Lin Wanru's chin seemingly effortless yet disabling any resistance!

"Glug, glug..."

She could clearly feel that the whole bottle of beverage had been drunk!

Lin Wanru's eyes widened in terror, sensing the expressionless Shen Bijun as a demon from hell!

"...Quick, save her!"

By the time the others finally reacted and thought to come forward to help, they saw that Shen Bijun had already let go, and Lin Wanru collapsed onto the ground, limp as though her bones had been dismantled.

The empty packaging bottle that had been drunk rolled in front of her, not a drop left inside.

After doing this, Shen Bijun walked over to the children, bent over to pick up Chu Tianye and the unconscious Chu Xiaomeng, one in each hand, and she looked straight at Chu Yanshen, her voice cold as she said, "Tell everyone who Chu Tianye's father is!"

Chu Yanshen's expression was complex, his heart filled with extreme remorse!

Thinking of today, when he refused to give Chu Tianye a Transformer, in the moment of Chu Tianye's earnest gaze, he had chosen Chu Yu...

For the first time in his life, he felt somewhat at a loss.

If he had known earlier that these two children were also his, although he might have still made a snap decision to save one to prevent all three from dying, he wouldn't have done so as resolutely!

He opened his mouth, his voice incredibly hoarse, "It's me."

He thought the woman would demand justice from him, would want an explanation, but he didn't expect Shen Bijun to simply look at Chu Tianye in her arms, "Little Meng, did you hear that?"

Chu Tianye's eyes reddened, and he buried his head in her embrace, "I heard it."

Mommy was using her actions to answer the question he had asked out of grievance before.

He and his sister were Dad's children!

Shen Bijun's gaze swept over the family doctors and the domestic staff and maids in the house, speaking deliberately, "Remember this, both Little Ye and Little Meng belong to the Chus. If anyone dares to treat them differently in the future, they will end up like Lin Wanru."

Her light tone was speaking terrifying words.

The servants all shuddered!

But Shen Bijun did not bother with them anymore and went straight out the door with the two children.

"..."

The room fell silent until the sound of retching was heard, and that was when everyone realized that Lin Wanru had quickly grabbed the soap water and was inducing vomiting.

She vomited a mess on the floor until she was sure there was no more poison in her stomach before she stopped, but her throat still burned painfully like it was being cut by a knife.

She called out to the doctors, "Save me!"

Only then did the family doctors snap to their senses and rushed over to examine her, "It's good, it's good, most of the poison was thrown up in time, only a small amount has been quickly absorbed..."

The situation was severe for the children because they had not been discovered immediately after being poisoned, delaying the best time for gastric lavage.

Lin Wanru induced vomiting in time, which, although not fatal, was serious because the poison she chose was too harsh; even a small amount that entered the body would be absorbed.

This small amount of absorbed poison was enough to damage her internal organs, and even if she didn't die, her body would be much weaker in the future.

Hearing this, Lin Wanru sobbed towards Chu Yanshen, "Yanshen, Shen Bijun is too arrogant, too excessive! Did you see? She dared to poison me right in front of you! This is murder!"

But Chu Yanshen didn't pay her any attention, simply staring fixedly in the direction of the door where Shen Bijun had left.

Lin Wanru shouted, "Yanshen, she's a cold-blooded animal, it was she who poisoned me! After the incident, she gave the medicine to Chu Yu only to make you feel guilty, to make you not hold her accountable! Even if Chu Yu is alright, her two children could have died, she still would have killed your children!! You can't let her go!"

She actually dared to make her drink poison... she would make Shen Bijun die!

However, just as these words fell, Chu Yanshen finally slowly turned his head to look at her, "That night five years ago, it wasn't you."

Lin Wanru's limbs instantly turned icy cold.
