785 Don'st Have to Do a DNA Tes

Xia Ling was unhappy for having lost her brother.

She took out her unhappiness on Li Lei, hitting him several times on the chest with her clenched fist. "It's all your fault!"

Li Lei nodded. "Yes, yes, yes. It's all my fault."

"What is your fault?" Xia Ling wouldn't let the matter rest.

Li Lei was taken aback. "My fault for…" How would he know why was it his fault?! He was just trying to placate his wife when he accepted the blame. He felt really wronged!

Xia Ling started to hit him again. "You're just humoring me!"

Li Lei said, "Yes, yes, I was humoring… Oh no… why would I be humoring you?!"

Xia Ling snapped. "You're humoring me again!"

Li Lei was close to tears.

Just as he was contemplating what exactly he had to shoulder the blame for, he heard Old Master Li clear his throat. "Miss Ye, I was in the wrong earlier. Please forgive an old man for being ignorant."

Li Lei frowned. "Grandfather, we're family. You can cut the nonsense and just be sure to treat Xiao Ling like she's your granddaughter. We can resolve all the differences."

Xia Ling wanted to say something but caught herself on account of Li Lei.

She disliked this old man, but he was still Li Lei's grandfather. She didn't want Li Lei to be caught in the middle.

The Old Master said to her, "Next time, your problems are all the Li Family's problems." Since The Preceptor regarded her as his sister, then Old Master Li thought that accepting her as his granddaughter-in-law was the right thing to do, regardless of whether they were biological siblings.

How many wealthy families wanted to have a relationship with the Xia Family? This was a fortune that would keep him smiling in his dreams.

With regards to Xia Ling being a jinx? Since The Preceptor had accepted her as his sister, there must be a way to alter her fortune. There was no reason for him to continue to object to the marriage that his grandson wanted so much for.

Seeing his change in attitude, Xia Ling was well aware of what the Old Master's considerations were.

Unfortunately… "Since you dislike Shaohui so much, even if I wanted to marry Li Lei, I still wouldn't." She sighed in mock resignation. She lashed out at Li Lei again. "It's all your fault! Why did you go anger my brother?! If he doesn't like you, why would he agree to our marriage?!"

Li Lei tried to placate her. "I'll go look for brother and apologize."

"Who's your brother?!" Xia Ling shouted at him. "Return my son to me!" Boohoohoo, her brother had taken little Shaohui away in his anger. She didn't know when she would be able to see Shaohui again. She was already missing him.

Li Lei was also missing Shaohui as he weakly responded, "We'll get Shaohui back."

Xia Ling was not convinced. Did he think that he could beat her brother in a fight, or that he would be able to verbally convince her brother to return Shaohui? Boohoohoo, her brother was a tyrant… the big boss villain in computer games. She thought about it for a moment before taking out her mobile and ringing Xia Moyan. "Xia Moyan, return my son to me!" She screamed into the phone.

Xia Moyan said something on the other end of the line.

Xia Ling hung up, her face ashen.

"What did brother say?" Li Lei nervously asked.

"Who's your brother?!" Xia Ling shouted at Li Lei again, before saying in an unhappy tone, "My brother said that since we don't want little Shaohui, he will keep him. He'll care for Shaohui in the Xia Family and won't ever let the Old Master see him."

Li Lei felt depressed.

He knew that his brother-in-law was a man of his word.

Xia Ling was upset as well. "Isn't he horrible? Even if he doesn't want to let the Old Master see Shaohui, he can just send the Old Master out of the country! Why did he have to take Shaohui back home? Now, even I can't see Shaohui!"

Old Master Li was speechless. Hey… I'm not dead yet.

As Su Tang glanced over at the Old Master's dark expression, her heart dropping a little. After realizing Xia Ling's identity, the Old Master's attitude towards her had had a 180-degree shift. He was so nice to her that it was too much. Look here now, Xia Ling had said something so disrespectful to him and he wasn't even going to chide her about it.

Su Tang felt that things were getting out of hand and piped up softly. "The Xia Family is a powerful family indeed, but they can't just treat us like that. They are taking Shaohui away just because we've suggested a DNA test? We don't know if he's truly part of the Li Family bloodline yet. We can't take this matter lightly."

While Xia Ling was prepared to put up with Old Master Li for Li Lei's sake, that didn't mean that she was going to put up with Su Tang. She glared at Su Tang and gave a cold laugh. "Yes, we can't take matters of the child's bloodline lightly. Miss Su, didn't you think about that as well when you chose to have Li Rui?"

Her words were like a needle piercing Su Tang's heart.

Su Tang knew that Li Lei would tell Xia Ling the truth, but hearing Xia Ling say it still hurt her. Originally, she had thought that Xia Ling was like her in that Shaohui was not Li Lei's biological son, but now it appeared that Xia Ling's child was indeed Li Lei's. Wasn't that just putting Su Tang in a bad position?

Su Tang lowered her head with a face pale.

The Old Master Li said in Su Tang's defense, "Miss Ye, Su Tang is Xiao Lei's savior. The acceptance of that child is repayment for what she did for the Li Family. Be magnanimous and don't take it to heart!" He was still fond of Su Tang and wouldn't leave her in the lurch. Xia Ling might be The Preceptor's sister, but what had she done for Li Lei and the Li family?! All she did was to create a lot of problems for them these few years!

Even though he was going to accept Xia Ling into the family, deep down he was still more fond of Su Tang.

Su Tang's predicament was such a pity… it was such a pity that she couldn't compare to Xia Ling in terms of family background.

The heavens were playing a joke on him. After all that happened these years, his grandson was still going to be together with that girl.

Seeing the Old Master take Su Tang's side, Xia Ling couldn't resist but say, "Old Master, Miss Su here clearly doesn't believe that Shaohui is the biological child of Li Lei and myself. It's alright, regardless of whether you guys believe it or not, Shaohui's identity is not going to change. It's fine even if I can't marry into the Li family my whole life!"

Li Lei said, "Grandfather, Shaohui is really my son. There's no mistake whatsoever. I'm not going to let Xiao Ling and the child do another DNA test. I believe them. Even if the whole Li family doesn't accept it, Shaohui is still my biological son. He's going to be my only bloodline in this life."

Xiao Ling could no longer conceive, and he wasn't going to get together with anybody else.

Shaohui was his only precious son.

Su Tang's face was pale. "I'm sorry, Li Lei, Miss Ye. I'm sorry for making you angry… I… I was just thinking for the Li Family."

Li Lei looked at her sternly. "Don't even talk about the DNA test ever again."

Su Tang bit her lip and nodded.

Old Master Li said, "Fine, don't do the DNA test. I believe that Shaohui is of the Li Family bloodline." He had initially thought that Xia Ling was lying about Shaohui's identity to marry into the Li Family. But The Preceptor's appearance had overturned the Old Master's hypothesis. If she had the Xia Family backing her, why would she need to bother about lying about the identity of her child?

Shaohui had to be Li Lei's son.

With that thought, his urgency to see his great-grandson emerged again. "Where did The Preceptor bring the child to? I was too disrespectful earlier… let me go look for him to apologize and bring the child back."
