Inside the private room, Situ Wenze had been waiting with his nephew and niece for a long time.
The three of them saw Yun Zijin, and their eyes instantly lit up.
"Aunt Zijin!"
Hearing someone call her "aunt" so suddenly, Yun Zijin was still a bit unused to it.
She hadn’t expected to be called "aunt" at only twenty-one years old.
"There’s no concrete evidence yet, so there’s no need to change how you address me."
Yun Zijin only wanted to know the truth. But as for returning to the Situ family, she was absolutely against it.
Going back would mean she was a member of the Situ family, and she would have to consider the rest of the family in everything she did from then on.
And Yun Zijin didn’t believe that someone like her, who was only acknowledged halfway through her life, would have any say in the Situ Family.
She’d be constrained at every turn, having to watch others’ expressions before doing anything. No matter how she thought about it, Yun Zijin couldn’t see any benefit in returning to the Situ family.
Twenty-one years had passed. They hadn’t come when she was working part-time jobs every day just to make a living. They hadn’t come when she was all alone at school parent-teacher conferences. And they certainly hadn’t come when others bullied her, calling her a little bastard!
Now that she had everything, they showed up. Swooping in to reap the rewards couldn’t have been easier.
"Are you resentful of us?"
The moment Situ Wenze heard her, he felt that Yun Zijin didn’t seem particularly happy about their arrival.
’Hadn’t he heard that she grew up in an orphanage and that finding her father was worse than not having one at all? So when family like them appeared, shouldn’t she cherish them even more?’
"No, I just think it would be more reliable to do a DNA test. The mere fact that I look like your aunt isn’t persuasive enough."
Yun Zijin was very clear about her reason for agreeing to meet Situ Wenze today.
She simply wanted to know who her parents were.
"You’re right, a DNA test is necessary. However, my aunt is still in France right now, so we might have to wait a few days for the test."
He could do a kinship test with Yun Zijin, but the accuracy was a bit lower. If a maternity test was possible, it was the more reliable option.
"I’m available anytime. Just let me know when she comes to Hua Country."
Aside from what was necessary, Yun Zijin had no intention of having much contact with the Situ family.
Situ Wenze nodded. "I’ll let you know the moment my aunt arrives in Hua Country. The food is getting cold, let’s eat."
They must have already ordered before Yun Zijin arrived. During their conversation, a waiter had quietly served the dishes.
However, looking at the food on the table, Yun Zijin had no appetite. She barely picked at her food with her chopsticks a couple of times before making her excuses to leave.
"I just had breakfast not long ago, so I’m not very hungry. Please take your time. I’ll be going now."
Now that the DNA test was settled, Yun Zijin had no intention of staying any longer.
Situ Wenze frowned slightly. He couldn’t shake the feeling that Yun Zijin didn’t seem to like them very much, showing none of the joy one would expect from someone who had finally found their long-lost relatives.
But considering they hadn’t done the DNA test yet, Situ Wenze couldn’t bring himself to say anything to her.
’Even if I were to say something, I’d have to wait until after the DNA test confirms everything. Then I could speak to her as an elder.’
Situ Anyu and Situ Anrui ate in silence, feeling that it would be inappropriate for them to speak at that moment.
After leaving Qingjin Pavilion, Yun Zijin glanced back at its sign.
’It seems there was a reason Situ Wenze reacted so strongly when he heard my name at the banquet.’
However, Yun Zijin didn’t want to dig any deeper. Her life was very good as it was.
Just as Yun Zijin stepped out of Qingjin Pavilion’s entrance, she ran into Lu Yunque.
"What are you doing here?"
