Upon noticing the scowl on his father’s face, Dabao hurriedly said, “Mommy, Daddy’s right too…”

“I know he’s right. But he’s just saying that to spite me,” Ning Ran snapped.

Sensing the tense atmosphere between his parents, Dabao did the only thing he could think of. “Shall we call it a night? I’m kinda tired and sleepy.”

“Alright. Children should get more sleep so they can grow big and strong!” Ning Ran agreed.

After taking a shower, Ning Ran flopped on her bed, prepared to play on her phone for a bit before going to sleep. At that moment, Nan Chen entered the room.

He had been particularly argumentative tonight, a fact that pissed her off.

Rolling her eyes at him, she growled, “What are you doing here?”

“This house is mine. This bedroom is also mine. In fact, everything here is mine,” he threw back.

“I know they all belong to you. You don’t need to put so much emphasis on it. If I had known back then that this was your house, I wouldn’t have moved here! You can take it back if you want to!”

Nan Chen frowned at her irritable words. Whats wrong with her tonight? Her tempers out of control!

“The report’s out,” he informed.

“What report?”

“The paternity test report.”

“What paternity test report?”

He did not bother replying and simply waited for her to come up with the answer herself.

A few seconds passed before she abruptly recalled what Ning Ziqiang had said a while ago. He had told her she was not his biological daughter.

At the time, Nan Chen had said they would run a DNA paternity test.

He must be referring to that report.
