1036: Chapter 1037: Duanmu Family Couldn’t Hold In The Fart 1036: Chapter 1037: Duanmu Family Couldn’t Hold In The Fart “Oh, what way?

Speak quickly!”

Duanmu Chang urged anxiously.

Duanmu Lin said smilingly, “Father, you should remember, I had a son with that vile woman, and for all these years, I never sought him out.

But this time due to the issue with Tajin Country, there was no choice but to find him.

Just a few days ago, I located the child.

That vile woman is already dead, but the child has grown up, and was adopted by the Xiao Family of Linhai.

His name is Xiao Chen!

I plan to reclaim him!”

Upon hearing this, everyone present was extremely surprised.

They hadn’t expected that the child from those years, who once required constant care, was still alive.

It truly was a miracle.

It seemed that the heavens were looking after the Duanmu Family.

“Father, did you really find him?”

It was Duanmu Yun, Duanmu Lin’s son, who spoke.

Duanmu Yun was the favored son of the Bai Family and also the main focus of this scandal.

“That’s wonderful, hurry and bring the person back.

I don’t want to be married off to that godforsaken place!”

He was very excited.

The aristocratic Duanmu Family’s business expanded significantly, not just domestically, but also internationally.

Tajin Country, located in the eastern part of Africa, although a tiny nation, happened to have oil and diamonds.

The Duanmu Family’s business reached there and even signed agreements with the king of Tajin Country.

They had the rights to oil and diamond mining there.

But the other party reneged.

Reneging at this critical juncture represented a huge loss for the Duanmu Family as they had already invested heavily.

They had also signed a collaboration agreement with the Bai Family.

If things didn’t work out, the Bai Family would definitely be furious.

Luckily, the other party proposed a requirement: just choose a direct male descendant from the Duanmu Family to marry into Tajin Country and wed the princess of Tajin Country.

Then choose a direct female relative to marry the king of Tajin Country.

Once the two families became relatives by marriage, the contract would be upheld.

The Duanmu Family had been very worried about this.

No one wanted to send their son to suffer in that place.

The conditions in Tajin Country were harsh, and it was frequently disturbed by unrest.

Who knew if one would abruptly perish there?

A while ago, Duanmu Lin found an illegitimate daughter he had fathered outside, which filled the place of a woman.

This illegitimate daughter was born to a woman who had sold herself in Chaoyang City.

He settled it with a sum of money.

But finding a male descendant was more problematic.

Thus, they went to look for Xiao Chen, thinking that, like with the woman, Xiao Chen would take the bait for money immediately.

Unfortunately, this time it failed.

“Your uncle has already sought him out, but that young lad is rather greedy, taking our money but still refusing to come back.

He is probably expecting more.”

Duanmu Lin said with a cold laugh, “But don’t worry, Yun’er, Father definitely won’t let you go to Tajin Country.

My son is supposed to inherit the Duanmu Family.

How can he go to such a place?

This matter, I’m just informing you all.

Your uncle will take the lead on how to handle it, so don’t worry!”

“But, my son,”

Duanmu Chang suddenly said, “don’t forget the Xiao Family of Linhai.

Although the Xiao Family has declined today, Xiao Enze has a good relationship with Ye Jianguo.

What if he gets desperate?”

Duanmu Lin disdainfully said, “The Xiao Family is not what it used to be.

The Xiao Family once stood above the top ten wealthy clans, on par with the Shang Clan.

But now, they aren’t capable.

Even if Xiao Enze and Ye Jianguo are friends, so what?

Would Ye Jianguo become hostile to our Duanmu Family for such a trivial matter?

Furthermore, we still have the Bai Family behind us.”

“That makes sense!”

Duanmu Chang nodded slightly, it seemed there really wasn’t much to worry about.

“Father, can I celebrate with everyone today?

I haven’t been able to eat or sleep well these days.

I finally await the day when clouds part to show the bright sun.”

Duanmu Yun said excitedly.

“Alright, you young people go out and celebrate.

I still have some matters to handle.

But Yun’er, remember, you are to inherit the Duanmu Family, you can’t just focus on having fun.”

Duanmu Lin said.

“Father, don’t worry, I will!”

Duanmu Yun excitedly beckoned the younger members of the family to leave.

“This child, look how happy he is!”

Duanmu Lin also smiled happily.

Everyone in the Duanmu Family was very happy.

Who wouldn’t be happy after finding a scapegoat?

After picking up Jiang Meng from the airport, Xiao Chen and his wife went crazy all night.

But they took safety measures.

Although Jiang Meng wanted children,

Xiao Chen wasn’t planning on having any for the time being, given the current state of the world.

It wouldn’t be too late to have children after he achieved his goals.

After all, he wasn’t even thirty yet, and Jiang Meng was even younger.

There was no need to rush.

The next day, Xiao Chen received a report from Jianghu Teahouse.

“The Duanmu Family had a family meeting last night, and they confirmed your status.

It seems they really want to bring you back, boss!”

Leng Yue said over the phone.

“Keep investigating, see why they suddenly want to find this abandoned child.”

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

He still wasn’t sure if the paternity test was real.

He hadn’t asked his parents yet, for fear of hurting their feelings.

He would just investigate secretly.

“We’ve found out!”

Leng Yue said with a laugh, “That Duanmu Family really can’t hold it in!”

“You’re a woman, speak more civilized.”

Xiao Chen said with a wry smile.

“Cough, got it, boss.

It turns out that the Duanmu Family needs to send a direct blood relative to marry into Tajin Country to secure a major contract.

They originally chose Duanmu Yun.

But Duanmu Lin definitely wouldn’t agree.

So, you became their sacrificial lamb.”

Leng Yue said.

“They really can’t hold it in, can they!”

Xiao Chen scoffed coldly, “I hope that paternity test isn’t real.

If it is, it’s disgusting that I’m born from such a family.”

“We’re still checking on the paternity test, but from the Duanmu family’s reaction, it’s probably not forged.

After all, that king of Tajin Country isn’t a fool.

He used to be a mercenary abroad, formed a troop, took over the area, and became a king.

He has experts under his command.”

Leng Yue said.

“Abat, huh, I know him!”

Xiao Chen said with a light smile, “That fellow once kneeled before me begging for mercy.

Since he hadn’t done anything too outrageous, I spared his life.

He still bows to my photo every day.

Tell me, how would he see me if I really went over?”

Though Xiao Chen spoke lightly, Leng Yue could feel the phone turning icy.

Xiao Chen was angry.

Very angry!

If the paternity test was real, it meant that Duanmu Lin had abandoned him and his mother for over twenty years, not caring whether they lived or died.

If it weren’t for the Xiao Family, he might have died a long time ago.

Now that he was of use, they came looking for him.

In this world, to have such malicious relatives, how could Xiao Chen not be angry?

“Boss!

Should we contact Langya to obliterate Tajin Country?”

Leng Yue suggested.

“No need, Tajin Country hasn’t provoked me; this is purely the Duanmu Family causing trouble, and Abat is quite obedient.”

Xiao Chen shook his head, even in his anger, he wouldn’t kill the innocent.
