Chapter 117: Identification

Fortunately, the problem was not that serious. The baby had a fever because he had been crying for a long time and had sweat all over his body. The sweat was not wiped off in time. Coupled with the fact that he had not completely recovered from his cold, the symptoms of the cold worsened with this stimulation, so he had a recurrent high fever.
When the two of them returned home, Wang Li appointed someone she trusted from the three maids who had worked in the Tan family for more than ten years to be in charge of temporarily taking care of the baby.
Although the baby was still a little noisy because he was not used to it, fortunately, he was used to Wang Li. When he cried, Wang Li could coax him.
Knowing that the child was a small problem, Tan Si heaved a sigh of relief. This was the key to her entry into the Si family. “Mom, are we still looking for a confinement nanny? I’m worried that we’ll encounter such a thing again.”
Wang Li sighed. “I have no choice. How can I take care of it alone? The baby is good at being picky. We can only do this for the time being. We still have to hire someone. But in the future, the confinement nanny can’t leave the nursery as she wishes. She has to get my permission to come out. Then it should be fine.”
Tan Si saw that Wang Li knew what she was doing and could not be bothered with such trivial matters. It was fine as long as it did not affect her anymore.
Wang Li looked at Tan Si, who was slumped on the sofa, and sent the servants away. She asked in a low voice, “Why don’t you think of a way to get a strand of Si Cheng’s hair and we’ll bring the baby for a round of tests ourselves?”
Tan Si was a little angry when she heard this. “Mom! Although I like to play, I’ve never done anything rash in terms of relationships. If you’re suspicious even as my biological mother, how can others not be suspicious?! My first time was Si Cheng! How can this child not be his?!”
When Wang Li saw Tan Si’s agitated expression, she quickly comforted her. “Mommy doesn’t suspect you. Isn’t this just imagining and confirming the outcome? Otherwise, we won’t be able to figure it out just by sitting here. Haven’t you suspected that the baby might have been carried away by the wrong person? Which child doesn’t look anything like either parent? Of course, we can’t rule out the possibility that it’s because he’s still too young for us to see. However, if we confirm it we’ll be more at ease.”
When Tan Si heard Wang Li’s analysis, she calmed down and said in a low voice, “Alright, I’ll contact Si Cheng to meet him and secretly get a strand of his hair. When the time comes, I’ll do a DNA test on his hair and the baby’s.”
Si Cheng had been a little busy recently and could not be bothered to deal with Tan Si. However, he could not resist Tan Si’s coaxing and pestering. Thinking that it had indeed been a long time since they had contacted each other, he finally agreed to meet Tan Si next weekend.
After confirming the time, Tan Si prepared to set off for Xiyun.
Originally, Wang Li also wanted to choose the gift herself. When the time came, she would send a photo to her sister-in-law to prove that she had personally chosen it. Wouldn’t that show more sincerity? Unfortunately, because the confinement nanny had left, Wang Li had to help take care of the child. She had to busy herself with choosing a new confinement nanny and could not split herself up.
Tan Ming had a good night’s sleep in the old residence. She did not feel uncomfortable at all. It was as if she had been staying in this room for so many years.
The next day, she woke up naturally. Tan Ming picked up her phone and looked at the time. She saw the message her third brother had sent her.
Jiang Huai: You went back to Xiyun with Mom and Dad?!
Tan Ming: “That’s right. I came back to buy something.”
Jiang Huai:…
Jiang Huai: Why didn’t you wait for me…
Tan Ming chuckled when she saw Jiang Huai’s message. She could already feel Jiang Huai’s resentment through the screen.
Tan Ming: “It’s my Aunt Tan’s birthday in a few days. It’ll take you so long to finish filming! If I wait for you, it’ll be too late.”
Jiang Huai: I really can’t be away for too long. Our hometown is too far away. I’ll be delayed on the way back. You must tell me as soon as you return to Sea City!
Tan Ming looked at the screen in confusion, not knowing what her third brother was up to.
Tan Ming:”?”
Jiang Huai: Trust your brother. There will definitely be a surprise. It’s not a loss to tell me!
Tan Ming smiled and shook her head.
Tan Ming: “Okay.”
The two of them chatted about the production team before putting down their phones.
After Tan Ming got up, she went to the next room to play with Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi. Then, she went downstairs to the dining room. “Good morning, Mom and Dad.”
Li Mei and Jiang Hai smiled and replied, “Good morning. Come and have breakfast. There’s your favorite soup dumplings today.”
After Tan Ming sat down, she found out that her parents had something urgent to deal with today, so they couldn’t accompany her to shop. However, the person-in-charge of the industry here would accompany her.
The person-in-charge was called Jiang Zhen. Jiang Zhen’s father and grandfather had been working for the Jiang family for decades. Although it was just an employer-employee relationship, they could be considered very reliable people..
