Chapter 586: Paternity Test in the Trash Can

The young police officer handed the evidence bag to Lin Dongfan.

The small silver USB drive in the bag now looked like a bomb that could detonate everything, reflecting some light under the lamp.

Lv Shuting stared at the USB drive closely, her pupils suddenly contracting.

As someone who regularly deals with high-end electronic equipment, Lv Shuting immediately recognized that this was no ordinary USB drive; beside its interface, a tiny microphone hole could be faintly seen.

This is clearly the top-tier covert surveillance equipment on the market!

Having made an accurate judgment, Lv Shuting felt more anger than shock—a furious rage stemming from her privacy being violated.

She snapped her head up, glaring angrily at Lin Dongfan: "Director Lin! How dare you sneak into my home and illegally install surveillance equipment! This is illegal evidence gathering!"

"Illegal evidence gathering?" Lin Dongfan gave a slight smile after being shouted at.

Lv Shuting shouted furiously: "Whether it's illegal or not, you know it yourself! Someone like you who commits serious illegal and despicable acts—I can report you at any time to get you stripped of that uniform!"

At this moment, Lv Shuting was like a lioness thoroughly provoked.

After shouting, she lunged to snatch the evidence bag; in her view, this was undoubtedly Lin Dongfan using despicable means to topple her father.

"What are you doing? Want to rebel?"

Raising his right hand holding the evidence bag casually, he easily dodged Lv Shuting's snatching motion.

Lin Dongfan warned Lv Shuting calmly: "General Manager Lu, take a good look—this isn't something we placed in your home."

"Bullshit!"

Lv Shuting's eyes widened in anger; she simply didn't believe Lin Dongfan's explanation.

She flared up, snapping: "Besides you lot who'll stop at nothing to achieve your goals, who else would use such despicable tactics?"

"Listen, this is something Jiang Lin left in your home."

Lin Dongfan held up the evidence bag before Lv Shuting, a true conqueror, fearless—he wasn't afraid of her lashing out like an enraged lioness.

This time, Lv Shuting didn't grab for it.

The name Jiang Lin left Lv Shuting somewhat startled and doubtful: "You mean Qiao Lianzhou's wife? That's absurd! How could she possibly get into my home?"

"How could she not get into your home?" Lin Dongfan asked with a calm smile.

Jiang Lin said: "Even if it were Qiao Lianzhou himself, when he comes to visit my father he'd have to say hello first! How could my father possibly receive Qiao Lianzhou's wife? It makes no sense!"

Faced with Lv Shuting's "sound and logical" reasoning, Lin Dongfan could only sigh helplessly to the heavens.

It seems she's the kind of elegant older sister that every man wants to pounce on—she usually doesn't care about her father's private life, not even knowing that he had taken Jiang Lin as a mistress.

Put another way, Lv Yizhi's chaotic private life is also deeply concealed.

Lv Yizhi had been involved with Jiang Lin for over a decade, yet both Qiao Lianzhou and Lv Shuting, as their closest relatives, only learned the truth after the Anti-Corruption Bureau got involved.

Not knowing is better; the less you know, the smaller the chance of implication.

Lin Dongfan examined Lv Shuting's furious, ashen face and patiently explained: "You guess—could there be such a possibility: your father has some shady connection with Jiang Lin?"

"What do you mean by that?" Lv Shuting stared fixedly at Lin Dongfan.

Lin Dongfan smiled faintly: "What's meant by 'shady' is nothing more than power-for-sex trade. Jiang Lin has long accompanied your father in oxygen‑deprived exercise, while your father helps promote Qiao Lianzhou. This USB drive in my hand is the safety net Jiang Lin left for herself. She feared that if your father fell from power he'd silence her, so she prepared this in advance."

"Enough! Stop playing this framing trick in front of me!"

The more Lv Shuting listened, the angrier she became; she refused to believe, and could not believe, this fact.

In her memory, her father's love for her mother was profound; after her mother's death, he remained chaste and never approached other women.

Extreme anger and humiliation caused Lv Shuting's emotions to spiral completely out of control.

She rushed forward heedless of danger to snatch the evidence bag from Lin Dongfan's hand: "This is illegal evidence! Give me the USB drive!" she screamed, her nails almost scratching his wrist.

Lin Dongfan sidestepped to avoid her, simultaneously raising his hand to block.

At that moment, a nearby prosecutor officer also rushed forward, trying to restrain Lv Shuting, and the small living room instantly descended into a chaotic physical struggle.

Amid the pushing and pulling, all that could be heard was a crisp "clang."

The metal‑framed trash can beside the coffee table was kicked over by Lv Shuting; its contents—waste paper, fruit peels, and other garbage—spilled out instantly, scattering across the floor.

"Stop!"

Lin Dongfan shouted sternly, and the chaos temporarily subsided.

Lv Shuting panted, barely able to catch her breath, no longer caring about her appearance; her eyes, full of resentment and hatred, locked onto Lin Dongfan as if she wanted to tear apart a scumbag.

But Lin Dongfan paid her no heed.

Lin Dongfan bent down, picked up a slightly creased A4 printout from the scattered trash heap, looked closely, and indeed it was a paternity test report.

Damn it!

God didn't nod off today? He actually sent such a powerful assist!

Smiling faintly, Lin Dongfan handed the report to Lv Shuting: "Have a look yourself—this fell out of your trash can; it surely isn't evidence I forged, right?"

The previously furious Lv Shuting took the paternity test report and glanced at it.

Her eyes widened in shock!

At the top of the paper, a bold black headline was clearly printed: "Opinion on Parental Relationship Determination!"

The report's format is standard, its content rigorous:

Principal: Jiang Lin (mother)

Subject 1: Qiao Xu (son)

Subject 2: Lv Yizhi (father)

……

Conclusion: Based on existing data and DNA analysis, after ruling out extreme cases such as identical twins and close‑relative breeding, it supports Lv Yizhi as the biological father of Qiao Xu.

The cumulative paternity index (CPI) is 9.99×10¹⁶, and the relative paternity chance (RCP) exceeds 99.99%.

The air, at this moment, completely solidified.

This paternity report that appeared out of nowhere was like a bolt from the blue, shattering all her pride, persistence, and cognition in an instant.

She stood frozen in place, as if she had lost her soul, her whole expression a complete mess.

How could this be? How could this be!

How could my dad possibly be this kind of person!

How could I possibly still have a younger brother!

……

Lv Shuting stared fixedly at the dense genetic locus data and the final few lines of cold, conclusive appraisal results, her face ashen as paper, unable to speak for Along while.

As a philandering scoundrel, Fan Ye remained as considerate as ever.

He took back the paternity test report from Lv Shuting's hand and comforted her: "Don't panic, as long as you openly acknowledge this brother, you'll have one more person to help share the family inheritance—this is a good thing."

……!!!

Lv Shuting gave Lin Dongfan a resentful sideways glance, 'You crazy bastard who loves drama and isn't afraid of making a big deal, watch out—I might find a chance to sleep with you, this scumbag, and even bear you an illegitimate child to split your inheritance!'
