However, Old Madam Luo had always been kind to him. When Luo Yeqing was not paying attention to him and his daughter, it was his mother-in-law who dragged her sick body from the hospital and helped him raise Luo Huian. If not for her, then who knows what might have happened to him and his daughter?
Thus, Ye Shun still held so respect for his mother-in-law. Even though he would have loved to leave with his daughter right away, he still gave his Old Madam Luo so face and agreed with a hum.
Qi Yongrui and the rest, on the other hand, looked at one another, not knowing what to do in this situation; should they follow or stay here?
Fortunately, Old Madam Luo cleared their confusion.
She looked at them and said to the three rs, "Entertain the guests until we return. No matter what the situation, we can’t just ignore the guests when we are the ones who invited them."
"Yes, grandmother," Qi Yongrui took the lead and agreed while Old Madam Luo led the entire family to a small lounge room.
Once she entered the room, she turned to look at the r who had insulted Ye Shun and questioned him sternly, "Who told you that Huian is not the child of our Luo family?"
She had a feeling that this matter was linked to Qin Qiy but she had no evidence. After all, who else other than Qin Qiu would benefit the most if Luo Huian’s parentage was unclear?
Qin Qiu felt a chill in his heart when Old Madam Luo glanced at him; even though she did not say anything, he had a feeling that Old Madam Luo could see through him in just one glance.
He swallowed hard and tried to pretend to be confused.
The r on the hand was terrified out of his wits; he never thought that Ye Shun, who was always so calm and elegant, would explode like that. He blinked his eyes and then responded in a dazed manner, "I—I was just saying hearsay. Mister Ni was the one who told that Master Ye’s daughter did not belong to Madam Luo and I didn’t an any harm. I just—I was just curious and wanted to know if it was the truth."
"As Madam Luo has never discredited these rumours, I thought that they were the truth."
Everyone turned to look at Luo Yeqing, whose face turned red and she said, "I didn’t even know that such rumours were flying around in the first place!"
She was so busy trying to keep the falling Luo Corporation in place; how could they even expect her to listen to the rumours and gossip of rs?
Ye Shun, on the other hand, simply snorted, "Isn’t it because you don’t care that my reputation is getting sared? If you cared, then you would have paid attention! At least you could have asked if there was so misunderstanding."
"Ah Shun," Luo Yeqing stepped forward to hold Ye Shun but the r stepped back clearly upset and angry with her.
Ye Shun knew that he was being uneasonable by blaming Lup Yeqing for not paying attention to the gossip when he knew how busy she was in the past but when he thought about how his repuation had been sared, ruined and spat on, he couldn’t help it anymore.
For twenty years! For twenty years he was treated like a fool. As he clearly didn’t like stepping into the social circle or talk with the rs of other families, he never thought that one day he would suffer for that in such way.
"My brother is right." Second Aunt Ye had her head thrown back on the headrest of the couch and nursing her broken nose, while waiting for it to get healed. She turned to look at Luo Yeqing and stated in a cold voice, "You could have easily asked him about this matter, so why didn’t you? Clearly, Ah Shun got pregnant after the marriage so how co this misunderstanding even aroused?"
Luo Yeqing parted her lips but then closed it right back. What was she supposed to tell the Ye family? That their night of consummation was not exactly pleasant and Ye Shun cried throughout the process and they only did it once?
How was she supposed to know that they would hit the goal in just one night and just one ti?
She swallowed hard and at the sa ti Ye Shun also turned awkward as he realised where the misunderstanding arosed from.
Luo Qingling saw that her mother was hesitating and was speechless. She said to her mother, "Mom, are you really going to keep quiet now? Do you believe when I say that this matter can beco solid ground for divorce!"
"Sothing I will support," Luo Huian sneered as she looked at the foolish woman in front of her. "I want a change of mothers! I don’t like this one, I want a new one," she turned to look at Ye Shun who was about to reply when Luo Yeqing snapped at Luo Huian.
"Well, you have no choice because there is no way you are getting a new mother!" this naughty girl she really was her nesis, she actually demanded Ye Shun to get her a new mother, right in front of her!
Luo Yeqing then pursed her lips and sighed before explaining, "I and Ah Shun didn’t have much of a coordination back then. We —we just consumated our wedding night out of responsibility and that was it."
Once she finished speaking, both her and Ye Shun turned even more awkwrad and embarrassed. To humiliating, who would have imagined that one day they would be confessing that they did it only one ti in their entire married life?
Second aunt Ye looked at Luo Yeqing and Ye Shun before letting out a whistle.
"One shot eh?" she teased only to get smacked on the back of her head by her elder sister.
"Don’t joke around at this mont!" Elder Aunt Ye chided. Seriously, couldn’t she see that Luo Yeqing and Ye Shun were about to lt because of the embarrassnt?
Luo Yeqing cleared her throat before saying, "Anyway, after Ah Shun gave bith I receieved an anonymous DNA report which said that I and Huian had no blood relationship."
