Mrs. Wilson was taken aback.

These Chinese people with money were particularly annoying.

Wealthy Chinese were even more irritating than poor Chinese.

In China, they had to be catered to at hotels and even after leaving hotels. The Chinese people’s provincial manner made her feel both amused and contemptuous.

She certainly looked down on Chinese people.

Why shouldn’t she?

Their annual salary couldn’t even buy one of her daily-worn trench coats.

Why shouldn’t she despise the poor?

Not just the Chinese poor – in Mrs. Wilson’s eyes, the American poor were just the same.

Even if she and Ivan went bankrupt, their life would still be far better than the poor.

These detestable Chinese people – their country still wallowed in poverty and ignorance, yet the lucky few who made some money dared to show off in front of her?

Xu Zhongyi coldly stared at her, making Mrs. Wilson swallow her words of rebuttal.

Xu Zhongyi was different.

This man had patiently lurked for 20 years just to avenge his lost wife and child, and he succeeded!

Mrs. Wilson knew Zhang Jiadong all too well.

Yet even Zhang Jiadong was killed by Xu Zhongyi… Mrs. Wilson turned her head away:

“Tina, I just wanted to be more certain. 95% is 95% then. Since this is the best testing technology available, I’ll accept it. Professor Emerson, I apologize for my unprofessional comments!”

Professor Emerson didn’t take offense.

He was only responsible for the testing and reporting of the results.

How people reacted was a matter of human nature, unrelated to the laboratory results.

“This is a process, you’ll need time to accept it.”

Professor Emerson hurriedly left – he was busy in the laboratory after all. If it weren’t for Klaus begging for help, he wouldn’t have done the DNA test, only to have the results questioned despite confirming the parent-child relationship. It was truly vexing.

Tina looked at Mrs. Wilson, then at Xu Zhongyi.

Xu Changle opened his arms to her:

“You’ve been angry with me for so long, aren’t you going to give me a hug now?”

Tina bit her lip.

She remembered what Ji Jiangyuan had said.

Your brother wants to give you what he thinks is best, he’s taken so many steps toward you, can’t you show some compassion and respond to him?

Tina lifted her feet and slowly moved her body.

Yes, she had said she would be a daughter of the Xu family, and when Xu Zhongyi offered her money, she wouldn’t take it… but she couldn’t reject her brother too.

The siblings embraced.

Xu Changle’s shoulders trembled – it had been six months since everything changed, and this was the first time Tina had been so close to him!

Xu Zhongyi stood nearby, deeply moved.

This was his daughter – he wanted to step forward and embrace both his son and daughter, but he controlled himself.

No rush, take it slowly.

He shouldn’t frighten Tina.

Mrs. Wilson’s eyes were red, “Oh, I’m so happy that your siblings have reconciled! Your daddy and mommy must be watching this moment from heaven.”

This woman knew how to ruin the atmosphere!

Xu Changle felt Tina’s back stiffen.

He patted Tina’s back, comforting her for a while before letting go:

“Aunt Cynthia, I’m grateful for your care and concern when Tina needed help. The grudges of the previous generation have nothing to do with Tina – she wasn’t even born then. She always thought she was Zhang Jiadong’s daughter. Father and I understand her and can wait for her to change her mind… but I don’t want anyone constantly reminding her of those grudges in her ear, creating negative emotions! At this moment, even the laboratory professor is wishing for our family’s reunion, is it appropriate for you to say such things?”

“Brother…”

Tina tugged at Xu Changle’s sleeve.

Xu Changle shook his head, “I’m not looking for an argument, I’ve wanted to say this for a long time. Tina, you should move past your grief and continue your studies. If you truly like China, I can arrange for you to study there. If not, shouldn’t you return to Columbia? Young people should broaden their horizons – I support you traveling the world during holidays, but young people also need to learn how to be self-sufficient. Do you want to be someone who can only live off trust funds?”

Mrs. Wilson became anxious.

How could they let Tina stay in America?

Tina was also at a loss, “Of course I’ll continue my studies, but not now. I promised… no, I mean Aunt Cynthia and Uncle Ivan helped me when I was in difficulty, and now they’re in a difficult situation themselves. I should stay with Aunt Cynthia through this crisis.”

Both Xu Changle and Xu Zhongyi’s gazes fell on Mrs. Wilson.

This was truly strange.

The Wilsons’ difficulties were caused by Harold Wilson.

How would they get through this crisis?

Tina was just a young girl, she didn’t have any remarkable business talents that could help the Wilsons turn their situation around!

Mrs. Wilson pressed her lips together. She knew her care for Tina was effective – the young girl was very easy to control.

Yes, she couldn’t panic, couldn’t let the Xu father and son notice anything unusual:

“I am Cui’s friend, of course, I speak from her perspective! Cui originally had a happy and complete family, but then suddenly everything changed. Should I forget my friendship with Cui and persuade Tina to happily accept her so-called birth father? Damn it, this all happened too suddenly! Now that you have the DNA test results, are you using them to morally blackmail Tina and control her? Farn, I’ll say the same thing again – you can arrange how to use Tina’s money, but you can’t forcefully arrange how she lives… She feels she hasn’t adjusted well enough to return to school in her best state, why are you forcing her?”

Mrs. Wilson also opened her arms:

“Darling, you can live according to your wishes, be brave!”

This Mrs. Wilson was suspicious.

Xu Zhongyi was one hundred percent certain.

When Mrs. Wilson claimed to be Cui Yiru’s friend, she displayed grief was fake!

Her love for Tina wasn’t sincere either.

Listen to these words – she was instigating a 19-year-old girl to oppose her family, but speaking very skillfully as if she was considering everything for Tina’s benefit.

Did this Mrs. Wilson think he, Xu Zhongyi, was a pushover who wouldn’t get angry?

Bang, bang, bang.

These were Klaus’s footsteps in the hospital corridor.

Urgent and powerful, showing this man’s anxiety.

Damn New York traffic – he got stuck in another major traffic jam on the way from the laboratory to the hospital. For the last few kilometers, Klaus had to run on foot.

By the time he arrived at the hospital, it was two hours later.

Wen Manni’s contractions were frequent, and even professional midwives, couldn’t ease her anxiety. The influence of pregnancy hormones made Wen Manni’s thoughts bizarrely changeable – one moment she felt she was great, and the next she thought herself foolish for changing her DINK lifestyle to have a high-risk pregnancy!

Qi Wei thought she was amazing – after having the baby, she would become a partner.

But if she hadn’t gotten pregnant, this wouldn’t just be break room gossip, but reality!

Zhou Yi stood beside her sharing supposed experiences, more nervous than the about-to-give-birth Wen Manni. Zhou Yi herself had nearly died during childbirth. With Wen Manni’s husband still not arriving, Zhou Yi tried to distract Wen Manni’s tension while her legs trembled in fear – when she heard Klaus calling “Connie,” Zhou Yi was almost crying with relief:

“Connie is about to give birth to your baby, my God, you’ve only just arrived!”
