Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 386
Chapter 386: We Were Really Blind!
Xu Yihong had expected the urgent Xu Holdings board meeting to be called.
It was fortunate that one of the stockholders who backed him had privately reached out to him. Any plans he had beforehand… could be carried out now.
Indeed, Xu Yihong could guess that Papa Xu had called for a board meeting so urgently because he managed to get his hands on the test results beforehand. After all, Jing Yun was crafty enough to have Papa Xu move up his schedule.
That said, even if Papa Xu had cards his sleeves, Xu Yihong had his ladder to climb any walls.
It was two in the afternoon.
The Xu Holdings board meeting was about to start.
Jing Yun had followed Papa Xu to the office, although he had no right to show up at the meeting.
Meanwhile, Mama Xu had brought both test reports made with Xu Yihong and asked to set up a meeting with her eldest sister-in-law through a friend, because he wanted to help his husband and son to settle the matter as soon as possible.
As a matter of fact, eldest uncle Xu’s wife had been abiding with her husband over the years because she privately blamed herself for not giving him a son. That was why she was aware that her husband had a mistress.
After that one big argument, her husband had become more restrained. That was why she would turn a blind eye if he did not step out of line.
Still, she was surprise to see Mama Xu.
While they often met in family gatherings, it was rare that they saw each other individually.
“Eldest Sister …”
“What’s the matter, Sister?” The other woman sat down in confusion, although she was aware that Papa Xu had suspended her husband’s duties.
“I have two things to show you today.”
With that, Mama Xu passed her eldest sister-in-law both DNA test reports.
The other woman already had a bad feeling when she saw the yellow envelope in Mama Xu’s hand, which was why she was very hesitant when she accepted the envelope.
“You’re not doing something untoward to my husband, are you? Your eldest brother-in-law may be a little outrageous, but he wouldn’t…”
“You would understand after reading that, Eldest Sister.” Mama Xu said quietly.
Nodding, the eldest Xu sister mustered her courage to open the yellow envelope, and soon flung it aside.
“What it this?” She rose to her feet in agitation.
“Xu Yihong—the eldest son in my family is not the child I had with Wenhong, but a son Eldest Brother had with a mistress.”
“No way. He may have had mistresses, but I know for a fact he didn’t have a child.”
“Eldest Sister, the hospital has proof that eldest brother was with that woman when I was giving birth to my eldest son, and she gave birth to another son. He does not care what it takes to grab power, and therefore switched away my eldest son. My poor real son later died just a few-years old.”
Mama Xu’s tears were flowing freely then.
The eldest Xu sister clearly wouldn’t accept that.
Even so, it was known that the Xu family had always cherished Xu Yihong, meaning that there was nothing else to say for Mama Xu to come to her personally. As such, she sat down once again, looking rather jarred and caught in disbelief.
“That animal!”
“Eldest Sister, that’s not the only outrage Eldest Brother had done. I’m sure you know I’ve found my youngest son, but did you know who abandoned him?”
Over the years, Mama Xu almost lost her mind in her search for Jing Yun—the eldest Xu aunt knew that well.
If it was that animal too…
“We really were blind… what do you hope I would do?”
“No, I’ve only come to tell you this, Eldest Sister. After all, if you still would rather keep the family together…”
The eldest Xu aunt promptly slammed her hand on the table and stood up once more. “I’ve compromised over the years for our daughter! I would have divorced him if I knew that the animal had a son! You think I want this marriage? Family? He never even cared for my daughter and I after all these years. And I’ve always wondered about that…”
“So the truth is that he has a son already! While here I am, holding single-sided sentiment and convinced that I owed him. What are you planning to do?”
In the end, there was nothing more delightful than finding a comrade against a common enemy.
“You should take what’s yours. It’s enough as long as you do right by yourself and your daughter.”
“I’m divorcing him! Or the day would eventually come that everything he has would be given to that bastard! Don’t even think about it—Sister, you and Second Brother don’t have to feel any guilt. That animal deserves to be struck by lightning for what he did. We should have left him long ago!”
The eldest aunt was certainly understanding, which was why Mama Mu told her everything.
“If you’ve really made up your mind, sister, please hear us out…”
Before Papa Xu sued the eldest Xu uncle for fraud, Eldest Aunt had already made preparations to divorce him and claim half of his wealth—or everything would be too late when his assets were frozen.
“I don’t know whether you need it, but I still have evidence of his extramarital affairs. I wonder if I’ve photographed the mother of his bastard too.”
“And there’s evidence that he has bribed some stockholders!”
“Really?”

Meanwhile, the various stockholders had taken their seats at the Xu Holdings’ conference room. Naturally, neither the eldest Xu Uncle or Xu Yihong were present since they were suspended.
However, those two were quietly waiting. If Papa Xu would make a reckless move, they were not going to die without struggling.
Jing Yun himself stood outside the conference room, although he was not as calm as he looked.
After all, he knows that the stockholders all were in this business for profit. If Xu Yihong could bribe them enough, Papa Xu would not have an easy time in the board meeting.
“Chairman Xu, do tell us what you want to say! Everyone’s time is precious!”
Papa Xu had been clutching at the test reports and having a hard time speaking. Even so, after some thought, he began, “There are two marvelous actors in the Xu family. This family scandal shouldn’t be known out there, but I have to tell you because this involves the very roots of Xu Holdings.”
“After investigation, it is proven that Xu Yihong is not my own son. I have left this matter to my lawyer, whereas the stock Xu Yihong holds and the latest project he is in-charge of shall be put on ice.”
The stockholders only got half the picture. “If Chief Xu is not your son, then whose son is he?”
“Chairman Xu, you have to say it so that everyone could understand.”
“Xu Yihong is a son born to my eldest brother and his mistress. For power, he swapped my own son for his, and that is how we end up here today!” Papa Xu explained.
“I see!”
“To think that something like this could happen.”
Their questions answered, the stockholders all appeared to have satiated their appetite for gossip when one amongst them spoke out in protest, “But that’s not the version I heard.”
All at once, everyone turned towards the person speaking.
