“Pft! Cough cough cough…” Ye Wanwan was nearly choked by her own spit. “No… Dad, Mom… You’ve misunderstood!”
Patriarch Nie and Madam Nie looked at each other, baffled. “Misunderstood? What do you mean?”
Ye Wanwan patted Tangtang’s head and exasperatedly asked, “Dad, Mom, who told you Tangtang’s father is Emperor Ji?”
Madam Nie retorted, “It’s not?”
Ye Wanwan cleared her throat. “It really isn’t…”
Madam Nie and Patriarch Nie were stunned.
They both knew how much their daughter liked Ji Xiuran back then. Moreover, Ji Xiuran had always treated Tangtang very kindly, and they shared a close relationship. Hence, Ji Xiuran never said anything, but they tacitly agreed that Tangtang had to be the son of their daughter and Ji Xiuran.
Who would’ve expected that to be false?
“D*mn! Tangtang’s dad isn’t Ji Xiuran?” Nameless Nie was also astonished. “Then who’s Tangtang’s father?”
“…” Ye Wanwan wondered how her parents and Nameless Nie would react if she told them it was Lord Asura…
Forget it, I should give them a breather.
Ye Wanwan glanced at Darling Tangtang’s nearly identical features to a certain someone before saying, “Either way, it’s not Ji Xiuran. Don’t misunderstand! When there’s time, I’ll bring Tangtang’s dad here to meet you!”
Madam Nie deliberated her next words for a moment. She grasped Ye Wanwan’s hand and heavily said, “Ah, Worriless, although you can’t be with Xiuran, you absolutely can’t abandon yourself and get with a random man, alright?”
“That’s right! Don’t tell me the daughter of me, Nie Huaili, would need to fret about finding a good man! That punk from the Ji family is blind for not liking you!”
Ye Wanwan didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. “Dad, Mom, don’t worry! How could I have possibly found a random man?! You just need to look at Tangtang’s perfect genetics to know his dad is very outstanding and especially handsome! More importantly, we’re mutually and genuinely in love, so don’t worry!”
Her parents finally relaxed after hearing that.
However, Ye Wanwan’s heart suddenly raised.
Sh*t, now that everyone knows I’m Worriless Nie, Si Yehan must also know…
He knows I’m Worriless Nie, he knows Worriless Nie has an engagement with Ji Xiuran, he knows I have a son—an out-of-wedlock son with Ji Xiuran…
At the same time, at a hot-springs resort in the Independent State:
Si Yehan, Jiang Lihen, Xie Qianchuan were discussing business while sitting at a stone table under a tree when the sound of urgent footsteps was heard.
Lin Que dashed toward Si Yehan, gasping for air. “Ninth Brother! Some.. something happened… something serious happened!”
Si Yehan frowned lightly. “What is it?”
Jiang Lihen and Xie Qianchuan also reflexively turned to Lin Que.
Jiang Lihen disdainfully looked at Lin Que’s face, which turned average-looking after his disguise, and asked, “Tsk tsk, say, Second Lin, when can you fix your ruckus-causing personality?”
“Something heaven-collapsing really happened this time, alright?!” Lin Que ignored Jiang Lihen and caught his breath before swiftly continuing, “Ninth Brother, everyone in the Independent State is saying that the President of the Fearless Alliance, Bai Feng, is the true Second Miss of the Nie family, Worriless Nie!”
“That girl crashed the Nie family’s family head succession ceremony today and supposedly broadcast a telling video that proved the Worriless Nie in the Nie family right now is a fake and she’s the real one! The fake one was killed on the spot by Nameless Nie!”
