After Shi Guang left the provincial team and was about to head for Qian Xun and Xiao Bai, she received a call from Lu Yanzhi, asking her coldly where Xiao Bai was.
“Xiao Bai’s… with my friend. I’m going to pick him up right now.” An uncomfortable feeling streaked through Shi Guang’s heart.
“Give me the address. I’ll pick him up myself.” It was an authoritative tone that allowed no negotiation.
“Huh?”
“Since when has my son turned into someone else’s illegitimate son?” Lu Yanzhi’s tone was getting impatient. “Address!”
It was almost by instinct that Shi Guang revealed the hotpot address instantly.
Feeling nervous and uneasy, the cold breeze behind her sent goosebumps down her neck—did something big happen?
Given Qian Xun’s identity, it was easy to search for anything related to her up on the internet with. And indeed, when Shi Guang went online, she saw how photos of Qian Xun eating with Xiao Bai were caught and published online.
Even though the pictures were blurry, one could still make out that it was them.
Despite Qian Xun wearing a cap and a face mask, she was still recognizable. And it was exactly because Xiao Bai was wearing a cap and a thick scarf that covered his mouth and chin as well that their similarity was exemplified in the blurry photo through their similar eyes.
After a netizen posted it online, the media outlets changed the topic immediately to how Qian Xun was eating with her illegitimate son.
Other than the exposé from the first netizen, every other post was deleted. Later on, the media photos had Qian Xun and Xiao Bai’s faces mosaic-ed, such that most people online were suspicious.
Shi Guang was terrified after reading everything and felt her goosebumps rising.
Lu Yanzhi wouldn’t do something out of rage… would he?
Shi Guang gave Lu Yanchen a call right away.
“Lu Yanchen, this is bad… bad! This is bad! Would Yanzhi do anything to Qian Xun?”
“What happened?” Lu Yanchen asked nonchalantly.
“I’ll explain to you later. First, can you hurry to this address I’m going to send you? I’ll rush there as well.” Shi Guang got onto her car and turned on the speaker mode, sending Lu Yanchen the address while explaining everything generically.
She was afraid of Lu Yanzhi. This was the captain of the special forces, someone who had weathered through blood and storms, and would always give off a bloodthirsty feeling when he did not speak. If he were to get angry as such, he wouldn’t end up killing someone, would he?
It was safer to let Lu Yanchen know about it at the very least.
…
Qian Xun was extremely speechless—to think that this kid would end up being claimed as her son?
She looked at Xiao Bai who was eating, and then at how the articles were talking about them looking alike. Instantly, she felt that all of those people were blind.
How were they alike?
This kid clearly looked like Lu Yanzhi, and not the slightest bit like her!
If they wanted to make rumors about him being her son, so be it! To think that they could even tell blatant lies!
She exited Weibo and texted Shi Guang, asking her when she was going to reach. Shi Guang replied almost instantly that she was on the way.
Putting down her phone, Qian Xun poured herself a glass of water and sipped slowly. She looked at Xiao Bai, who had placed his chopsticks down and was wiping his mouth, and asked, “You’re done eating?”
After wiping his mouth elegantly, he picked up his chopsticks and looked at Qian Xun brightly. “Not yet!”
He then reached out for some food again, only to have Qian Xun cut before him. “I’ll do it.”
She then picked out a small plate of food for him.
