Wei Lin's photo appeared in the post just like that.
Insiders claimed it was definitely him!
The hired commenters who received the posting task were stunned when they saw the photo.
[The boss who assigned the task didn't say to post a photo]
[Why do you care so much? Maybe they hired two groups of commenters. Just complete the task and get paid, isn't that good enough?]
[You're right]
The hired commenters continued posting as instructed.
The so-called "insiders" also continued to flutter in the comment section, urging everyone to remember this face and avoid him like the plague.
Old Mrs. Feng saw the situation change when it was already too late.
Her face darkened as she hurled the nearby bottled water: "They've come up with a counter-move so quickly? What's the use of posting someone's photo in the thread?"
Xing Siyun peeked over to look.
She recognized the person in the photo at a glance... Her breath caught instantly, but she didn't dare let Old Mrs. Feng notice.
Only she knew that at that moment, her heart was pounding, and she felt extremely guilty.
What's going on?
Had they been discovered?
But, but how did they find out?
Wei Lin had clearly said that the old man had cancer, and his control over the company had greatly diminished years ago. Now he was in charge, and many of the household staff listened to him.
Before he went abroad, he had confidently told her: "There's nothing to be afraid of."
"Siyun... Siyun! Siyun, I'm calling you!"
Xing Siyun suddenly snapped back to reality upon hearing the voice and turned to look at Old Mrs. Feng.
Old Mrs. Feng said displeased: "Where did your mind wander off to? All those years of teaching you were wasted. Is this how a noble young lady behaves?"
Xing Siyun didn't dare to argue, only digging her nails into her palms.
What noble young lady.
The Xing family hadn't been doing well for the past couple of years... Even when her grandfather was still the chairman of the group, the business had gradually declined with changes in national policies.
She was sent abroad to learn so-called British etiquette and mingle in high society circles. In reality, she was just carrying bags and running errands for those true nobles, enduring no small amount of hardship...
Her grandmother didn't truly have her interests at heart either, only caring about the family's interests.
How could she not look out for herself?
Old Mrs. Feng was unaware of her granddaughter's resentment. Seeing her not talk back, she was somewhat satisfied with her obedience.
So she just directed her assistant to continue stirring up trouble in the post.
[Come on, it's not this person at all, it's someone else]
[How is it not? He's Li Xiaoya's uncle.]
The netizens were rebellious, immediately posting a clip from the show where Wei Lin indeed referred to himself as "uncle" when picking up Xiaoya.
Old Mrs. Feng nearly had a fit when she saw this.
"Why are these netizens so argumentative? We've already said it's not him, it's not!"
"This Wei Lin is just a pawn after all, how could he be matched with you?"
Xing Siyun felt a bit indignant: "Haven't you noticed? He's the one with real power in the Wei family now."
"What real power? He's not even in the line of inheritance!" Old Mrs. Feng suddenly caught on, "Why are you speaking up for him?"
Xing Siyun lowered her head and said: "It's just a pity, a pity that the Wei family's own son isn't such a capable person..."
Old Mrs. Feng sneered: "This is why I say you're not as clever as this old lady. Of course it's better to have someone like Wei Wenjuan or Wei Wenqing who are easier to control! Their family fortune will be more than enough to support the Xing Group's comeback in the future."
Yes, yes, yes! Everything is for the benefit of the Xing family, but no one ever thinks about her.
The Qing Dynasty is long gone, when will you old feudal minds finally fall?
Xing Siyun felt even more resentful in her heart.
She envied the love and importance Li Xiaoya received... And wasn't that envy also a form of yearning?
She could never hope for her family to treat her that way in this lifetime.

No matter how Old Mrs. Feng tried to turn the tide, Wei Lin had already been targeted in the post.
Time passed quickly, and by the time Chinese New Year came around, Xiaoya still hadn't seen her grandfather return.
"Is Grandpa sick?" she asked Wei Wenqing.
Wei Wenqing shook his head firmly.
"Then why doesn't he come back even for New Year?"
Wei Wenqing typed: "Hmm, it's to test our ability to be independent."
"Is that so?"
Wei Wenqing nodded vigorously and patted Xiaoya's head: "Trust your uncle."
Now only he and Sheng Yuxiao knew...
Wei Wenqing lowered his head. He wasn't good at lying...
"Miss Xing has arrived," the servant announced.
Wei Wenqing thought, thankfully there's something else to divert attention!
He quickly waved his hand, gesturing for the servant to show them in.
Neither Old Mrs. Feng nor Xing Siyun had expected him to welcome them so eagerly.
Had he finally come to his senses?
Wei Wenqing's phone emitted a cold voice: "Can we do the DNA test now?"
Well, he was still stone-hearted. Old Mrs. Feng's mouth twitched as she nodded and said: "Yes, we can. Let's go to the nearest hospital together."
After both parties provided biological samples, they were sent to the testing department together.
With expedited processing, the results came out quickly.
"...The child's alleles can all be traced to the tested father's genotype, confirming biological parentage."
The doctor handed the report to Wei Wenqing and said: "This is the result."
Xiaoya was dumbfounded.
Wei Wenqing was also stunned.
Old Mrs. Feng asked: "Are you satisfied now?"
Wei Wenqing immediately used his phone to ask: "Could there be an error in the results?"
The doctor frowned: "Are you questioning our authority and accuracy? I'm sorry, but it's impossible for there to be an error."
Wei Wenqing might seem more naive compared to his brother, but he wasn't completely unfamiliar with underhanded tactics.
His phone continued to emit a cold, pressing voice: "Are you sure you haven't accepted any bribes?"
The doctor was getting a bit angry: "Fine, if you believe there's a mistake, you're completely free to go to another hospital for testing. Your accusation is entirely baseless!"
"I apologize," Wei Wenqing quickly said.
By this time, Old Mrs. Feng's expression had become very unpleasant: "Do you really intend to go to another hospital?"
Wei Wenqing's gentle demeanor changed. He stared steadily at Old Mrs. Feng and nodded seriously and decisively.
Old Mrs. Feng laughed coldly: "Very well! If you want to change, then change..." She looked at Xiaoya, "Isn't the little girl close with the Sheng family's eldest son? That young master Sheng is good friends with the young master of New Domain Medical Group... If you're not reassured, you can use New Domain Medical's own facilities."
"But, even though our family isn't as prominent as before, that doesn't mean you can bully us as you please."
"Please have Mr. Wei Wenqing sign an agreement."
Xiaoya said: "Wait."
She called her grandfather again: "Are you still not coming back?"
After listening to the whole story, Wei Xuanming wasn't angry.
Xiaoya was very clever, with excellent people skills and good luck.
But she lacked one thing...
She lacked aggression, the drive of a fierce beast to bite its opponent to death.
Wei Xuanming said hoarsely: "Now there are only two possibilities. One, your younger uncle is a scoundrel who did something and won't admit it. The other is that your younger uncle has been wronged, but there are many things that don't add up. Xiaoya, can you find evidence on your own this time?"
"If you do find it, how should the Xing family be dealt with? Think about it, Xiaoya."
