The CEO's Substitute Wife Is A Genius-Chapter 392: Isn’t Saliva the Best DNA Specimen?

"You know..." Jiang Yueping’s inner thoughts were truly vile.

If he couldn’t have it, then he’d destroy it.

But he knew he couldn’t cause trouble.

The old man already looked down on him. If he caused trouble now and ruined Hu Ming’s wedding, then the outcome was predictable.

Not to mention the little familial affection that remained, his family of three would likely be kicked out by the Hu family.

"You think I don’t want to? But could I do something so foolish?" Jiang Yueping glared at Jiang Rou.

Jiang Rou pouted, her eyes fixated on the people in the dining room downstairs, seething with jealousy.

She really wanted to be doted on by her brothers too.

Why couldn’t she be the biological child of her parents?

"We can’t just stand by and do nothing."

Action-oriented, Jiang Rou stepped forward immediately after speaking.

She took a few steps then pulled on Jiang Yueping, "Come on, let’s join the fun!"

"What’s there to join? They don’t welcome us," Jiang Yueping pouted, despite his actual desire to go but feeling awkward about it.

"Who cares if they welcome us or not, we are living here now, we belong to this family!"

With that, she yanked Jiang Yueping away.

The atmosphere on the first floor was pleasant, with everyone chatting and laughing.

But when they heard Jiang Rou’s whining voice, the smiles froze on their faces, and were replaced by mutual awkwardness.

"What are you drinking there? Can I try some?" Jiang Rou asked with a smile.

The butler glanced at the lady of the house.

The second wife felt uneasy, her mouth twitching slightly, "Of course you can..."

"Thank you." Jiang Rou stepped forward, winking at the butler.

Two empty glasses were procured by the butler and filled with a small amount of drink.

"Fill it up. What is this, just a little bit?" Jiang Yueping complained.

The butler frowned, "Try it first, and if you like it, I’ll pour more..."

"The Hu family is wealthy and prestigious, why are you being so stingy? Anyone would think you’re mistreating relatives."

"You mean..." the butler’s forehead beaded with large drops of sweat as he filled the glasses to the brim.

He was overstepping his bounds.

Relatives? Did the Hu family acknowledge them?

Jiang Yueping took the full glass and gulped it down.

After finishing, he smacked his lips, "Tss... it’s just so-so."

Everyone felt awkward at these discouraging words.

Just as everyone had been enjoying their drinks, his comment dampened their spirits.

Jiang Man subconsciously raised her hand and saw not her watch, but the bracelet given by Lu Xingzhou.

She smiled, "Auntie, it’s getting late. We should head back."

"Alright," agreed the second wife, also eager to get away from Jiang Yueping.

The group scattered toward the foyer.

"Auntie, big brother, sister-in-law, you don’t need to see us out," said Jiang Man indifferently.

The second wife, worried, instructed Hu Xianyun, "Send a message after you’ve dropped Manman and the others at the hotel."

Hu Xianyun said nothing; he was always like this, aloof to others.

The second wife, accustomed to this, patted his shoulder.

After watching Jiang Man and the others get into the car, the group returned to the villa.

Passing by the dining room, they saw Jiang Yueping still drinking. The second wife shook her head.

"I’m going to rest in my room," she said with a heavy voice.

"Then mom, Anna and I will head to our room too."

Hu Ming spoke, wrapping his arm around Chen Anna’s waist.

Chen Anna eagerly shared something exciting with her fiancé.

She took out ADE108 from her bag.

Her eyes shining, she lowered her voice, "I have something great to show you."

"What?" Hu Ming looked at the medicine in a tube-like bottle with suspicion on his face.

"Manman gave me the miracle medicine! It’s said to be developed by Dr. M, named after a string of numbers, which I didn’t remember. What I wanted was the high imitation of this medicine, marketed under this medicine’s name but it’s actually a fake."

Hu Ming raised his eyebrows but didn’t react much.

"Isn’t your mom allergic? She took this medicine and was cured in the blink of an eye!"

Only then did Hu Ming show a reaction, incredulous, "It’s that miraculous?"

"Indeed." Chen Anna cherished the item in her hand, "Even the fake can sell for 21 million. The real deal is priceless. I’m planning to save it and take it only when necessary."

"You’re pregnant, you really shouldn’t take medicine recklessly."

"Manman said that this medicine is safe for pregnant women." Chen Anna raised her eyebrows, "I just think it’s a precious treasure and can’t bear to take it all at once, haha, but actually Manman has a bunch in her bag."

She didn’t really need to be so frugal, but felt embarrassed to ask Jiang Man for more.

Even if Jiang Man did have a pack, the medicine was indeed a rare treasure.

"I’ll wait and take it for my post-pregnancy recovery."

"That’s fine." Hu Ming rubbed her hair.

He knew women loved beauty and liked a wife who cherished her appearance, and he would fully support her.

"I’ll just go ask for more from Manman later. Don’t feel bad about it."

"Really? That would be awesome! Honey, I love you~"

The two of them got mushy with each other, their voices growing distant.

Jiang Rou couldn’t hear very clearly, the conversation breaking in and out, catching words like "21 million," "rare treasure," and "miraculous effect."

She also caught a glimpse of Chen Anna, secretly holding onto a vial of medicine.

million! For these wealthy heiresses, it’s just a cosmetic treatment.

But for her, it was a fortune beyond imagination!

"Dad, stop drinking." Jiang Rou quickly came up with a plan and dragged Jiang Yueping away.

"Why? I’m not done drinking!"

"Come on, come on, back to the room!"

Jiang Rou forcefully dragged Jiang Yueping back to the third-floor room.

Hu Fangqin had gone to the hospital and hadn’t returned yet.

Father and daughter closed the door of their room and immediately started whispering.

"I just overheard that my sister-in-law has a vial of medicine worth 21 million. She and Jiang Man went to the charity gala tonight, right? I guess it must be the much-talked-about Rejuvenation circulating in the city!"

"I’m not interested in the things you women chase after, it’s all a tax on intelligence," Jiang Yueping said unenthusiastically and still savoring the alcohol from before.

Claiming the alcohol was bad was a lie; it was just to provoke others.

"Ah, Dad, if we steal that vial of medicine and sell it on the black market, we could make a fortune, right? These rich people wouldn’t be too heartbroken over losing one vial of medicine."

"Jiang Rou, I advise you not to cause trouble!" Jiang Yueping couldn’t help but lower his voice and scold her.

But Jiang Rou wasn’t afraid and giggled, "Dad, are you confused? Waiting for the old man to pass away and leave you an inheritance, that could take forever, no? We have an opportunity to make money now, why be afraid?"

"I’m afraid that you’ll mess things up and completely anger the old man, leaving us with nothing!"

"That won’t happen, it’s just a vial of medicine. We can frame a servant if anything happens."

Jiang Yueping frowned.

Jiang Rou leaned in closer, "Dad, we’ve been cowards all our lives, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to strike it rich. Chen Anna is busy with her wedding, she won’t notice something is missing. By the time she does, it’ll be too late and there’ll be insufficient evidence."

Jiang Yueping was gradually persuaded and became tempted.

He thought about how pathetic his life had been, truly poor as one could be.

"Alright, just let me know what help you need when the time comes."

"Great, Dad, you’re the best!" Jiang Rou hugged Jiang Yueping’s arm and nuzzled it.

Jiang Yueping looked at the head leaning against him, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Both daughters were of his blood, yet they were so different.

He thought to himself, he needed to get a hold of some live samples from Jiang Man as soon as possible, for another DNA test.

That’s right!

His eyes lit up.

Saliva was the best sample, wasn’t it?

The glass that Jiang Man had just drunk from...

Oh no!

Jiang Yueping pushed Jiang Rou away, "I haven’t finished my drink, better not let the servants pour it away!"

With that, he ran out of the room like the wind...
