Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1741
Chapter 1741: Self-Disclosure

Liang Meili’s eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
She shouted, “Who was it? Tell me!”
Liang Meili was furious. She would kill anyone who stood in her way!
Qin Yaoguang’s lead lawyer, Lawyer Qin, quickly shouted, “Objection! This question had nothing to do with this case!”
The judge in the courtroom looked at Gu Nianzhi, but before he could ask, Gu Nianzhi interjected, “Your Honor, I would be proving that this matter was closely related to this case!”
“You were talking about who was Ms. Wen’s biological mother. May I ask what would this matter had to do with my client?” Lawyer Qin was dissatisfied with the judge’s favoritism towards Gu Nianzhi, “Your Honor, please stop the plaintiff’s lawyer from engaging in such tasteless behavior!”
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help but laugh. She nodded and repeated, “Yes, what did the identity of Ms. Wen Shouyi’s biological mother had to do with your client, Qin Yaoguang? I didn’t say they had a relationship. Look, there shouldn’t be any relationship at all.”
.
Gu Nianzhi was walking a tightrope as well.
She had started by investigating Luo Piaopiao’s DNA and found out Wen Shouyi’s relationship with the Qin family.
However, Luo Piaopiao had already been blown to pieces. She couldn’t bring up the results of Luo Piaopiao’s DNA test, so she had to beat around the bush and let Wen Dayou and Liang Meili reveal it themselves.
Liang Meili didn’t know who Wen Shouyi’s biological mother was but Wen Dayou knew.
Gu Nianzhi’s gaze stopped on Wen Dayou’s uneasy face. She said to Liang Meili, “Why were you asking me, Ms. Liang Meili? You should be asking your husband, he would know who was your daughter’s biological mother…”
Liang Meili turned to Wen Dayou in anger, who was beside her.
She screamed and pounced on Wen Dayou, slapping him repeatedly on the head and back.
Wen Dayou was in a sorry state as he shielded his head and dodged. With great difficulty, he was pulled to the side by a bailiff. Liang Meili was subdued by two female bailiffs.
She was short and wide. While being detained, she lost a lot of weight and also aged quite a bit. She wore a well-made brocade coat and black velvet trousers in court today, but now she was in a mess.
Liang Meili was being held by two female bailiffs and was still scolding Wen Dayou hysterically, “How could you cheat on me! I would kill you!”
The judge frowned and knocked on the gavel, “Silence! The court should remain quiet. Take Ms. Liang Meili out to calm down first.”
The two female bailiffs led the stumbling Liang Meili out.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the cowering Wen Dayou, she walked over and stared into his eyes, “Mr. Wen Dayou, could you explain why your illegitimate daughter appeared in the Qin Orphanage? When you adopted her, did you know that she was your biological daughter?”
Wen Dayou crouched in a corner of the witness stand with his head in his hands, ignoring Gu Nianzhi’s question.
Gu Nianzhi waited patiently by the side for a while. When she saw Wen Dayou’s fearless expression, her face turned cold and she said, “You don’t want to tell me, but you think nobody knew? Let me tell you, there were a lot of people who knew.”
“The adoption records of the Qin Orphanage, Wen Shouyi’s birth certificate, and the entire empire’s online census system. As long as I input her DNA data, I could find out the DNA of her immediate family members!”
It was impossible to find Wen Shouyi’s immediate relatives with this method.
The government’s census system did not have a complete DNA database. Currently, the only DNA database in the government system was the criminal DNA database created by the police system.
Anyone with a criminal record would have their DNA stored in the system for easy inquiry.
If these people committed a second crime, they would be immediately detected.
Wen Shouyi’s biological mother, based on her relationship with Luo Piaopiao, was a woman of the Qin family. However, if this person did not have a criminal record, her DNA couldn’t be stored in the police system.
Therefore, it was impossible to use such a DNA data retrieval method to find out who Wen Shouyi’s biological mother was.
To put it bluntly, Gu Nianzhi was only using this kind of high-sounding gimmick to scare Wen Dayou.
As expected, Wen Dayou was shocked.
His hands that were holding his head loosened a little, and he slowly turned his head to look at Gu Nianzhi.
But at that moment, Qin Yaoguang’s lawyer finally rebutted.
He quickly reacted and sneered, “Lawyer Gu was good at scaring people. I never knew that our country’s census system could still be used to check DNA data. This trick would only work on naive people!”
Wen Dayou immediately turned back and continued to crouch in the corner with his head in his hands. No one could pull him up.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and slowly straightened her back. She lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before deciding to continue with the psychological warfare.
She couldn’t directly point out Wen Shouyi’s biological mother’s relationship with the Qin family nor take the initiative to hint at it.
The only thing she could do was to make Wen Dayou expose himself.
But how could she do that?
Qin Yaoguang’s lead lawyer saw the opportunity and took it, “My client’s character witness, Wen Shouyi, was not doing very well. I’d like to request a half-hour recess so that the doctor could take a look at her.”
The judge discussed it with the other two judges and agreed, “Fifteen minutes. The court will reconvene in fifteen minutes.”
He told Gu Nianzhi, “Lawyer Gu if you were unable to prove your question was related to this case, the court will forbid you from bringing up any questions related to Ms. Wen Shouyi’s background.”
Gu Nianzhi could only smile and say, “Thank you, Your Honor, for giving me this opportunity to prove my point.”
…
After the court adjourned, Gu Nianzhi did not speak to anyone and walked out of the court alone.
She went to the locker where she kept her personal belongings and took out her phone. She wanted to look up some information, but Lu Jin sent her a text message, “Check your email.” Gu Nianzhi quickly opened her email and found that Lu Jin had sent her a letter. This letter was Wen Dayou’s details from the time he was born until now!
All these years, where he had been to and what he had done, it was listed clearly!
And most importantly, this data had been obtained from a public and legal place!
It could be used as court evidence.
Unlike Luo Piaopiao’s DNA data, which could only point them in the direction of the investigation, but could not be used as legal evidence.
Gu Nianzhi looked through the data at a glance and came up with an idea.
Some of the content was interesting.
…
Fifteen minutes later, Wen Shouyi and Liang Meili had both regained their composure. Even Wen Dayou was much calmer.
However, when they walked in, their faces still did not look good.
Wen Shouyi did not look at Liang Meili and Wen Dayou at all.
Liang Meili’s feelings were even more complicated.
She thought that she would hate Wen Shouyi because she was the daughter of a mistress.
However, she had raised her with her own hands and fed her with milk one mouthful at a time when she was a baby.
Raised her with painstaking efforts for all these years, there was no difference if she wasn’t her biological daughter.
Liang Meili could not hate Wen Shouyi at all.
Gu Nianzhi watched as they sat down on both sides of the witness stand.
The witnesses were supposed to appear in court one by one, but Gu Nianzhi needed them to appear in court together, so she had specifically applied to the court.
As far as the court was concerned, there were no set rules for how the witnesses would appear in court. It depended on the outcome of the negotiations between the plaintiff and the defendant.
Gu Nianzhi looked down at the message Lu Jin had just sent her. She had already printed it out and used it as a new copy of the Court’s defense materials.
The judge rapped the gavel and said in a clear voice, “The prosecution shall continue. Please get to the point as soon as possible.”
Gu Nianzhi nodded, “Thank you, Your Honor.”
She took the document to Wen Dayou’s witness stand and began to ask him, “Mr. Wen Dayou, what was the date of your birth?”
Wen Dayou was stunned and subconsciously glanced at Lawyer Qin.
Lawyer Qin nodded slightly at him.
Wen Dayou told Gu Nianzhi the date of his birth.
Gu Nianzhi asked again, “When you were thirty years old, you participated in a medical experiment conducted by the United Nations Population Fund in Huaxia. May I know what kind of experiment was that?”
Wen Dayou looked up abruptly, he was bewildered.
He looked at Gu Nianzhi as he had no idea how she knew about this!
He had participated in the medical experiment because he had been attracted by the sum that was offered in exchange for going through the experiment.
He only had to donate his sperm and was offered a thousand dollars. It was simply too easy to earn.
However, this method was still rather shocking to the more conservative Huaxia back then, so they had tacitly kept it a secret.
The people who came to participate in the experiment wore masks, so no one knew each other.
After they left, they immediately went their separate ways.
Wen Dayou wanted to make more money, so he came several times.
“Mr. Wen Dayou, may I know what kind of experiment was that?” Gu Nianzhi knocked on the witness stand in front of her and asked again.
Wen Dayou’s dark red face alternated between red and white, and the changes in his expression were obvious.
Although he did not say anything, from his expression, it was clear that something had happened.
“Weren’t you going to tell me?” Gu Nianzhi continued to look at her information. “What I had here was a publicly released document from the United Nations Population Fund. It stated the purpose and results of the experiment.”
“This experiment was to study the reproductive genetic functions of Chinese people, especially the genetic fragments unique to Chinese people.”
“Mr. Wen Dayou, I was curious. You donated your sperm when you were thirty years old, and then Wen Shouyi was born. If you didn’t have a mistress, then someone used your sperm to synthesize a fertilized egg with another woman’s egg cells, and gave birth to Wen Shouyi?”
She looked at the information in her hands and asked again, “But that wasn’t right. The sperm you donated at the United Nations Population Fund, and the child who was born later, why would she appear in the Qin Orphanage?”
“According to the documents, Wen Shouyi was born not too long ago when you adopted her. It had been several years since you donated your sperms. Mr. Wen Dayou, did you think we would believe your clumsy lie? You had an affair!”
Gu Nianzhi’s tone became harsh, “You tried to use medical experiments to confuse us!”
“I didn’t! I didn’t cheat! I didn’t have a mistress!” Wen Dayou was getting anxious.
Liang Meili jumped from her seat again. She felt Gu Nianzhi’s words made sense and started to beat Wen Dayou again. She yelled, “You were still lying to me! Tell me! Who the hell was that wretched mistress?!”
Wen Dayou was flustered by Liang Meili’s words, so he tried hard to prove his innocence and shouted, “I don’t know why Shouyi was in the Qin Orphanage. Director Qin probably knew about it. She let me adopt Shouyi and told me that she was my biological daughter. At that time, Director Qin was also helping the United Nations Population Fund with the medical experiment!”
