“Little Young Master…” Tian Wind appears tied in his expression but eventually grew firm in his next words, “Since you found out then I won’t keep the secret from you. Eight years ago, it was indeed my daughter Furen who had a one-night stand with your father. She gave birth to a son, and that son is you….”
PFFF~!
This time not even Bai Yan could hold back herself and spurted out the tea she was sipping. Taking the offered napkin from the flirt to wipe the stain, the lady immediately showed a sarcastic smirk after regaining her composure. She couldn’t wait to see how these people are going to swing the story because it’s truly enlightening.
Bai Xiachen on the other hand wasn’t so amused, rather he’s stunned beyond belief. Truly, he never thought a person could be this shameless.
How can he even say that? Does he take me for a fool?
“You claim that the mother whom I’ve been with since I was born is a fake, while your daughter who I don’t even know is my real mother?” The steambun found it hilarious just saying that, let alone believe the humor in that claim. For one thing, he was born in the other world, not here on Earth so the idea held zero ground to stand on.
“Yes, after giving birth to you, Furen became too afraid and abandoned you. She did not expect you to be picked up by this woman over there, therefore she’s only your adoptive mother and not your real one.”
Anyway, we’ve already offended this kid, what does it matter if we go all the way? At least we will have a sliver of hope if things work out.
“Dad?” Tian Furen popped her eyes in shock, not able to hold back the trembling in her body due to the anger flaring out.
Her willingness to accept the sick medicine pot from the Water Clan was already a great concession on her part, now her own dad was going to ruin her reputation? What would the others in the capital think? How was she supposed to continue living here in this city? All of these claims are nothing small, they’re all very heavy-handed claims! First it getting pregnant before marriage, then discarding a baby?
“Little Young Master,” Tian Wind ignores the way his own daughter was looking at himself and continued with the farce, “From the first time we saw you, Furen already knew you were her child. The only reason she didn’t come out and tell you was because she didn’t want to scare you, however, I could no longer stand idly by knowing someone wants to use you to their advantage in order to get close to your father. If you don’t believe me then we can do a DNA test for clarification. The hospital will have the proof you need.”
As long as Bai Xiachen was willing to go to the hospital with him then everything’s set in stone. Making a false report would be a piece of cake, by then their Tian Clan would stand at the top again with his daughter leading the helm of the Water Clan!
Against that suggestion, members of the Ling family here were all beginning to go crazy, this was especially true for the old general Ling Kaiyuan who started to frown deeply in the face. But then just as the old grandpa wanted to lash out at the shamelessness of these uninvited bastards, a light chuckle cuts in and stops him. The laughter was taunting and full of contempt, thus resonating loudly in this quiet banquet hall who are now entirely drawn to the source of this voice – aka Bai Yan who was sitting there holding the stomach in a laughing fit.
