"Yi Lingfei! She said it herself." Mi Xiaotian frowned slightly, "This Yi Lingfei is even more vicious than her mother!"
"Didn’t she go to the nightclub with Han Yirou? I thought they were friends." Mi Chenshuo narrowed his eyes, thinking that keeping this child around was a hassle, but without him, things were much easier. However, Yi Lingfei committing sothing so heinous at her age was truly grating.
Yi Luowa glanced at Mi Chenshuo, "If she’s not a friend, then she’s an enemy. Yi Lingfei likes you, I’m well aware of that. Just because I took a couple of photos with you, she nearly lost her mind in fury."
Long Che placed a chess piece, then raised his hand and tapped hers, "Your turn."
Yi Luowa grinningly picked up a chess piece and placed it right where Long Che had just moved, "All done! My billion-to-one wager is secured!"
Long Che glanced at the board with a smirk, "Looks like you’re too lazy to let win. I wasn’t even done understanding the situation before you defeated ."
Yi Luowa chuckled as she separated the black and white pieces and placed them into a jade box, "You deliberately spared this round, shall we keep playing?"
"Wait till your uncle finishes talking, then we father and daughter can have a proper few rounds." Long Che crossed his legs and turned to Mi Xiaotian, "What’s going on?"
"Luowa guessed it right; Yi Lingfei hates Han Yirou because of the rumors circulating outside that Han Yirou’s baby belongs to Shuoshuo. She took Han Yirou to the nightclub yesterday with the intent to cause her miscarriage."
As Mi Xiaotian spoke, he sat down, "Han Yirou is a child from a distant cousin’s family of Xi ichen. Her family’s living conditions are poor, and out of nowhere Xi ichen showed benevolence and aided them. Han Yirou has been deeply grateful. This ti, she had no defenses whatsoever. First, Yi Lingfei gave her miscarriage pills, and then took advantage of the chaos to knock Han Yirou over."
"She did sothing underhanded and still dared to admit it?" Tong Yao asked in confusion.
Mi Xiaotian shook his head helplessly, "She specifically went to Han Yirou’s hospital room to provoke her; otherwise, how would we have known she’d done such a vicious thing."
Yi Luowa pursed her lips, "Stitched up with five stitches, yet she still stord in there to provoke her? Truly unbelievable."
Long Che raised an eyebrow at her, "You’ve got your information pretty well-rounded! You even know she had five stitches."
Yi Luowa scratched her head with a sheepish smile, "Dad, I’ve been wanting to turn myself in... Well, Yi Lingfei got hit by . But after Tong Airui left, I totally forgot. Dad, Fourth Brother made all the arrangents before leaving, can you keep this secret for us and not tell Uncle?"
"Do you all think your uncle is a fool?" Long Che curled his lips slightly, "If he weren’t turning a blind eye, you lot wouldn’t still be carefree at ho; you’d have long been summoned for tea."
Yi Luowa pouted her cheeks and said with so indignation, "No matter how clever Uncle is, he’s no match for my Fourth Brother. My Fourth Brother’s plan is absolutely flawless—right now, Uncle is surely being led by the nose by him."
Long Che glanced at Tong Yao, and the couple exchanged smiles.
"In our family, looks like that protective streak runs in your father’s veins!" Tong Yao smiled helplessly, "Anyway, this matter finally has an outco, as long as there’s an explanation for your uncle. Once Rui’er’s personal evaluation is released, have Shuoshuo hold a press conference. When we return to Xiawu, let’s do so cleanly."
Long Che shot her a look, "Saying I’m protective. What about you? Aren’t you being protective? Your underlying ssage is that, regardless of whether that child is Shuoshuo’s, during the press conference, don’t admit it, right?"
Tong Yao playfully glared at him, "Why say it so blatantly?"
Yan Zi smiled, "Let share so good news — the person who did Han Yirou’s paternity test has been found; it’s Han Yirou’s biological sister."
Mi Chenshuo looked at his mother, "Did Han Yirou have her cheat the results?"
Yan Zi shook her head, "No, her sister acted on her own accord. Her sister saw you had money and wanted to use the child to scam so money out of you."
"So Han Yirou is innocent then? But whose child is it?" Tong Yao furrowed her brows, clearly puzzled.
"Who knows? It was a deputy director’s birthday that day, and everyone drank heavily." Mi Chenshuo ruffled his hair, "I’ll quit drinking — never touching a drop again. When I transition to working behind the scenes, if sothing cos up, I’ll handle it myself. I’m old enough now to stop troubling you all..."
"You’re a celebrity, a movie star. If your image gets ruined, so does Wanzhou Entertainnt, the company your mother worked so hard to establish. Even if it wears out, it’s worth it. But you do need to be more mindful; fa attracts trouble, and the circles you move in are chaotic. You must maintain your integrity!" Mi Xiaotian said, then turned to Tong Yao, "Sister-in-law, last ti you ntioned the daughter of the Duke of Blue liked Shuoshuo. When you go back this ti, settle things sooner. If Shuoshuo has a family, others might stop coveting him so much."
