Chapter 864
"No." Yun Moting shook his head obediently. "I collected it quietly."
"But, Dad, what do you need his hair for?"
"Momo." Xu Tian said seriously, "Dad does have a use for this hair, but I can't tell you the reason yet. However, Dad promises you that what I'm doing now will not harm your or the Yun family's interests, and it certainly won't hurt you. Do you trust me?"
He didn't want to tell Yun Moting about things like DNA testing until there were concrete results.
If this Yun Mufeng was indeed a fake, then he could be considered to have helped the Yun family, but if he was real, then he, an outsider, would be causing trouble for no reason.
"Of course I trust you." Yun Moting replied. "Dad is the best to me; I believe you won't hurt me."
"Good boy. Then I'll keep you company while you read and have lunch, and I'll go back to the office when you take your nap."
That morning, Xu Tian stayed at the Yun family to keep Yun Moting company. After lunch, he waited until the little guy was asleep before leaving the Yun family manor.
He had obtained hair samples from both Yun Mufeng and Yun Moting. Now, he just needed to find a testing agency to determine if the two were indeed biological father and son.
But when he looked up a testing agency, he didn't go there immediately.
The Yun family is one of the three great families, after all. If this Yun Mufeng was a fake, how could they not have found out?
Being able to have the Yun family recognize his identity means that the DNA test must have been fine.
Yun Mufeng's genes must indeed match those of Madam Yun or Yun Moting.
If this person's identity is still fake, then the situation is serious.
Xu Tian frowned and pondered; there were only two possibilities for such a result.
One is that the Yun family knows his identity is fake but hasn't exposed it; the other is that the power behind this imposter is strong enough to make an authoritative testing agency fake the results and pull off a deception.
Regardless of which result it is, if he rashly takes the samples in his hand to a testing agency, he will alert certain people and might even implicate Yun Moting, putting him in danger.
After all, everything is just suspicion for now; they have no evidence to prove that Yun Mufeng is an imposter.
If Qiao Jing Tian was just worried about Yun Moting, overthinking, and being overly nervous, wouldn't this be a farce?
But through his understanding of the man over this period, Xu Tian didn't feel he was the type to speculate wildly. Is there some other hidden story here?
In any case, he had promised the other party he would investigate, so he couldn't give up halfway now.
However, going to a testing agency now is definitely not safe, unless he finds someone he can trust to test this DNA sample personally; only then would he be at ease.
Xu Tian returned to the Azure Wolf Hall with the samples. After walking into his office, he dialed the internal line and called Zhong Yu and Zhong Ling to his office.
When Zhong Yu entered the room, she was clearly a bit apprehensive. Unlike before, when she would sit directly on the sofa or jump onto Xu Tian's desk, she was carefully hiding behind Zhong Ling, like a child who had done something wrong and was worried about being punished.
Xu Tian swept a glance over them coldly but didn't speak.
Zhong Yu felt increasingly guilty and spoke in a low voice.
"Brother Yi, listen to my explanation. I didn't mean to..."
She also knew that last night's events should have been kept secret, but if gossip isn't shared, where is the fun?
"Do you have any channels to perform a test? Perhaps someone who understands this knowledge and can operate it?"
Although Xu Tian didn't hold out much hope, he still had to ask.
"Test what?" Zhong Yu poked her head out and asked.
As long as Brother Yi didn't pursue the matter from last night, she would do anything.
"DNA," Xu Tian replied.
"DNA?" Zhong Yu was slightly stunned and said subconsciously, "Brother Yi, do you have a child? Are you suspecting he isn't your biological one?"
Xu Tian:...
He truly couldn't understand this girl's thought process.
"Or are you suspecting that you aren't your parents' biological child?" Zhong Yu covered her small mouth, her face full of shock, as if she had uncovered some earth-shattering secret. "Don't worry, we will definitely keep your secret and will absolutely not reveal a single word to outsiders!"
Xu Tian rubbed his brow: "It's not for me to test."
"Then who is it?" Zhong Yu still wanted to continue asking, but was pulled back by Zhong Ling.
"Brother Yi, I know the Second Elder understands the process for this. Should we call him over and ask?" At critical moments, Zhong Ling was indeed more reliable than Zhong Yu.
"Hmm, call him over," Xu Tian nodded.
Soon, the Second Elder arrived at the office.
"Sir, what do you need me for?"
"Second Elder, do you understand the content regarding DNA testing?" Xu Tian asked straight to the point.
"Which aspect are you referring to?" the Second Elder asked in return.
"Is it possible to perform a DNA test yourself without going to an agency?"
"This..." the Second Elder pondered.
"Is it very difficult? Perhaps you know of an agency that is absolutely trustworthy and won't let word leak out?" Xu Tian continued.
"It's not necessary to entrust it to others," the Second Elder shook his head. "I studied biology when I was young, so I can perform the test myself, as long as I have the relevant equipment."
"Really?" Xu Tian's eyes lit up. "Where in Kun City can one buy this kind of equipment, and how long does it take to prepare?"
"It won't take too long; I can find a way to get the equipment and such." The Second Elder thought for a moment and replied, "If things go smoothly, the equipment and reagents will be ready in a day. However, we aren't a professional testing agency, so the speed of getting results definitely won't be as fast as theirs."
"That doesn't matter. You go ahead and purchase the equipment and reagents. And this matter must be kept strictly confidential; only the four of us present can know, and it must absolutely not be revealed to outsiders."
"Sir, may I ask whose DNA you want to test?" the Second Elder asked cautiously. "Is there a problem with your parents' side, or has a woman brought a child to find you?"
If it were the second reason, that would be a major event for the Azure Wolf Hall.
If anyone dared to scheme against their leader, the Azure Wolf Hall would absolutely not let it rest.
"That's none of your concern," Xu Tian said coldly. "Remember to keep it a secret."
"Yes." Seeing Xu Tian's attitude, the Second Elder didn't dare to ask any more questions. After receiving the order, he turned and walked out of the office.
The Second Elder's efficiency was quite high; the next day, he had all the equipment and reagents related to the testing ready.
Moreover, it was all transported secretly to the Azure Wolf Hall headquarters in the middle of the night, without letting any word leak out.
That morning, he received the hair from Yun Mufeng and Yun Moting from Xu Tian, and then locked himself in the temporarily set-up laboratory.
Xu Tian was in his office handling documents from the past few days while waiting for news from the Second Elder.
The Second Elder had already warned him in advance that the results might not be as fast as a professional testing agency, but until the results came out, Xu Tian had no heart to handle other matters, so he only picked out some unimportant documents to sign off on.
