Early the next morning, Tang You Ran and Bai He drove to Plum Garden. They first went to a snack bar next to Plum Garden to taste the fermented rice ball before buying a ticket to enter Plum Garden.
The winter passed, and spring arrived. It was the time when the plum blossoms were in full bloom.
The plum blossoms that filled the garden competed to bloom, red, white, green, and pink.
Tang You Ran and Bai He walked and stopped in the Plum Garden. From time to time, she would take a few pictures. She didn't forget to choose a few beautiful pictures to send to Ye Xiao He.
Even in his busy life, Ye Xiao didn't forget to interact with her. Tang You Ran and Bai He stayed in Plum Garden for the entire morning. When they were hungry, they left the Plum Garden and went to find a restaurant.
Bai He said that the rice ball she had eaten in the morning tasted quite good and suggested that they continue to eat. Tang You Ran did not reject her.
The two of them then went to eat some fermented rice balls before driving away from the Plum Garden. Today was the day of rest, so there was an endless stream of people coming to the Plum Garden to admire the flowers. There were a lot of cars and traffic jams.
Tang You Ran carefully drove the car out of the Plum Garden District. The road was no longer congested. She sped up, and when she reached a bend, an electric car suddenly turned around. Tang You Ran hastily turned the steering wheel and ran into it.
The owner of the electric car was hit and injured. Someone called the police and called the police. The ambulance arrived very quickly. The injured were taken to the hospital. The police did their routine alcohol test for Tang You Ran.
The result shocked Tang You Ran greatly. The results showed that the alcohol content in her body had reached 56mg/100ml, which had long since exceeded the alcohol standard.
How could she have alcohol in her body if she hadn't been drinking? Tang You Ran couldn't figure it out, but the traffic police wanted to detain her for driving around drunk.
Tang You Ran and Bai He were invited to the detention center. The news of Tang You Ran's detention was immediately brought to Ye Xiao's ears.
He immediately called his subordinates in River City and told them to bail out Tang You Ran. Then, he quickly returned to River City from the sea market.
Ye Xiao and the injured owner of the electric car paid a high compensation fee, but the owner decided not to pursue the matter. The police also informed them that Ye Xiao and Tang You Ran had already left the police station unscathed before they got to River City.
At this point, the matter had come to an end, but Tang You Ran felt guilty and decided to go to the hospital to see the injured owner of the electric car and apologize.
She and Bai He bought a gift fruit and went to the hospital to visit the injured person. When they entered the ward, the injured person was lying on the bed, beside him was an old man in his sixties.
Tang You Ran was obviously surprised as he kept staring at him with a strange expression.
Tang You Ran and Bai He explained the purpose of their visit. They put down the fruits and gifts and prepared to leave, but the old man called out to Tang You Ran.
"Miss, can I see that pendant around your neck?"
Tang You Ran froze for a moment. "Uncle, this is just an ordinary pendant. Is there really nothing to look at?"
"Let me see. This pendant is very similar to my old friend's pendant." The old man insisted.
Tang You Ran hesitated for a moment before he took the pendant and handed it to the old man. The old man turned the pendant over and over for a while before tears began to flow down his face.
Tang You Ran looked at him in confusion. "Uncle, what's wrong?"
"Yeah, Dad, what happened to you?" The young man with the broken bed was also strange.
The old man wiped his tears as he looked at Tang You Ran. "Was this pendant given to you by someone called Fang Yiran?"
"Yes?" How do you know? " Tang You Ran asked.
"Where is she?"
"My mother is dead." A sorrowful expression appeared on Tang You Ran's face.
"Dead? How is that possible? " The old man mumbled. Is she still so young? "
"She died of illness. Great sir, do you know my mother? "
"I do." The old man looked at Tang You Ran with a complex expression, "Miss, are you twenty-four years old this year? Is it May 18th? "
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"Miss! I've finally found you! " The old man instantly knelt down.
Tang You Ran was scared out of his wits and retreated while Bai He looked confused. After a while, she stretched out her hand to support the old man kneeling on the ground. "Uncle, get up. Why are you kneeling like this?"
"Miss, do you know how difficult it was for me to find you? I thought I would never be able to find you in this life, but who would have thought that the heavens were right, and the mister was born with the knowledge to protect me when I found you."
"Old man, what do you mean? Isn't Ran an orphan with no one to rely on? How did she become your Young Miss? " Bai He asked curiously.
"This is a long story, I will tell you slowly." The old man didn't let go of Tang You Ran's hand and slowly began to narrate the story.
It was already night when Ye Xiao and Tang You Ran arrived at River City. He called Tang You Ran several times but no one answered. When he was angry, a shocking piece of news was reported to him: "Boss Ye, I just received some information about Miss Tang's identity."
"You Ran's identity? Isn't she an orphan? " Ye Xiao asked.
"No, she's the daughter of River City's Seven Stars Corporation's Chief, Tang Mubai."
"What?" Ye Xiaohe was surprised. " Are you sure it's reliable? "
"Reliable. The one who was injured by Miss Tang is Guan Jie's son, Guan Yuhang. "Guan Jie was taking care of his son in the hospital. Miss Tang and Miss Bai went to deliver flowers to apologize. When Guan Jie noticed that Miss Tang's eyes looked like Tang Mubai's, he took a few more glances."
The other person panted, and then Guan Jie discovered the familiar jade pendant hanging around Miss Tang's neck. It's said that this jade pendant was passed down from Tang Mubai's ancestors, and Tang Mubai had a daughter when he was married in the United States. This jade pendant was given to his wife as a token of affection. Now, this jade pendant was actually found on Miss Tang's body. It's clear that Miss Tang is the daughter of Tang Mubai. "
"There's actually such a thing?" Ye Xiao was in disbelief.
Tang Mubai wasn't an ordinary person in River City. His Seven Stars Corporation was extremely famous. Tang Mubai had great management skills and the entire Seven Stars Corporation's upper echelons were all elites. Moreover, they were all loyal to Tang Mubai.
Even after Tang Mubai passed away, the company didn't decline in the slightest. It was still as bright as the sun in the sky. If Tang You Ran really was Tang Mubai's daughter, then he would be the sole successor to the Seven Stars Corporation.
This wasn't a small matter. He was the heir to the tens of billions. Although Ye Xiao didn't know much about money, he was still surprised by this sudden change.
He immediately ordered Ah Guang, "Immediately go to the hospital!"
Ye Xiao and Tang You Ran rushed to the hospital but did not see them. Guan Yuhang told him that his father had brought his daughter home.
After asking for the Guan Jie family's address, Ye Shaohe rushed over to Guan Jie's house.
The Guan Jie Clan was near the Plum Garden. Not long after Tang Mubai's death, his once loyal and devoted housekeeper was dismissed by his current widow, Lady Tang.
The reason Mrs. Tang dismissed Guan Jie was because he was a thief. The police had found many antique calligraphy and paintings in Guan Jie's house. They were all things that Tang Mubai loved the most when he was alive.
Guan Jie was charged with the crime and sentenced to five years in prison. The once glorious housekeeper became a prisoner, and his family was treated with contempt.
Guan Jie spent two years in prison. He was commuted three years for his good attitude and for his meritorious service. He had only recently returned home for a short period of time.
Ye Xiao and Guan Jie were chatting about the Tang Clan with Tang You Ran when Ye Xiao arrived. Tang You Ran was at a loss, as if he had not recovered from his shock.
Seeing Ye Xiao and Tang You Ran rush over, Tang You Ran jumped into his arms and cried out pitifully: "Xiao He!"
Ye Xiao held her waist and patted her shoulder. Tang You Ran said gently, "Grandpa Guan said that I'm Mr. Tang's daughter. I'm very surprised …"
"I already know!" Ye Xiao and Tang You Ran supported Tang You Ran's waist as they sat down. Ye Xiao looked at Guan Jie and asked, "What method do you have to confirm You Ran's identity?"
"Miss's eyes look exactly the same as Mister's, and Miss has on her a jade that Mister gave to Lady Xian, and Miss's mother is called Fang Yicheng, which is the name of the lady Mister married in America."
"No, you don't understand what I mean. This doesn't prove anything, the eyes look like they can be altered, and the jade pendant could be obtained by chance. As for the Lady Fang you're talking about, she's already dead, so there's no way for you to prove it. I need the most direct evidence!"
"This …" Guan Jie was speechless.
Ye Xiao and Ye Xiao sighed, "This is not just a matter of proving the relationship between father and daughter, but also related to the company's shares. If Mr. Tang is still alive, the most direct evidence would be DNA, but Mr. Tang is already dead.
Guan Jie fell silent. What Ye Xiao had said was the truth. The fact that they looked alike and had jade pendants meant nothing at all.
This was a battle that involved tens of billions of properties, and without solid evidence, it would just be empty talk.
Tang You Ran quietly leaned against Ye Xiao and didn't say a word. Bai He couldn't bear it any longer and said, "I read in the newspaper that you can find brothers and sisters to use their DNA to prove the relationship …"
"Mr. Tang doesn't have any living siblings, nor any children." He had already thought of this point a long time ago. If it was possible, he wouldn't need Bai He to remind him.
"Is there really no other way?" Bai He was somewhat disappointed.
Naturally, she had heard of Tang Mubai's reputation before. When she heard that Tang You Ran was Tang Mubai's daughter, she was truly shocked. If Tang You Ran's identity was acknowledged, wouldn't she be the Miss Qian Jin? That was such a good thing!
However, now that Ye Xiao had been splashed with cold water the moment he arrived, Bai He couldn't help but sigh.
Only Tang You Ran's expression didn't change. She wasn't making things up.
Tang Mubai was her biological uncle. She was very clear in her heart if her uncle was married and had no children.
Parentage appraisal was not her main goal. If she could be a paternity test, then she wouldn't even want to join in. The reason why she designed all this was because she couldn't be a paternity test without proof.
No paternity test could prove that she was Tang Mubai's daughter, but Tang You Ran had other ways to prove it.
