Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The tender voice of a child rang out.
That “mummy” was an absolute bomb that shocked the entire scene as every single audience found themselves flabbergasted!
Instantly, the entire hall went so silent that one could even hear a pin drop for that moment.
Qian Xun’s first reaction at seeing Xiao Bai was surprise. But, when he hugged her thigh and yelled out mummy, she was filled with a deep anger.
What was this Lu Yanzhi playing at? Why did he ask his son to come call her mummy at her engagement banquet?
Even if she said that she hated him, he needn’t go to this extent to get revenge, right?
He must be truly prepared to give her even more scandals, as though she hadn’t had enough to deal with, such that she could not get herself clean at all!
Qian Xun was so pissed, mad, and enraged that she almost exploded!
She heaved in a deep breath of air, trying her best to maintain that perfect smile of hers before looking down at Xiao Bai and slightly squatting over, whispering with a volume that only the two of them could hear, “Xiao Bai, why are you here? Where’s your daddy? Why did you come here calling me mummy?”
Usually, Xiao Bai would always bear an intelligently cool expression. But this time around, he was acting like a small little cry-baby.
He hugged Qian Xun’s thighs fiercely while speaking through snot and tears, “Mummy, don’t abandon me! I’ll be good and listen to you, and do anything you want me to! Just don’t get engaged with this man and abandon me and daddy!”
The entire crowd was shaken as they glared at Qian Xun and Xiao Bai. Some were skeptical, some were surprised, and of course, there were some that bought it…
Qian Xun nearly fell over the ground on hearing this crying complaint of Xiao Bai.
Toward this situation, she truly did not know how to handle it any longer as she swept her gaze through the crowd below—no signs of Lu Yanzhi.
Damn it, what was he trying to do!
…
Shi Guang was totally sent into a daze with that single “mummy” from Xiao Bai, and it was only after hearing Xiao Bai’s voice again that she snapped to reality.
Qian Xun was Xiao Bai’s mummy?
For real!
It was as though she was newly awakened—truly, life was mysterious. The way things had played out now was completely beyond anyone’s guess…
Lu Yanchen hugged the starry eyed Shi Guang into his embrace and spoke calmly, ignoring her shock, “I’ve said it… things won’t be that simple.”
Shi Guang’s eyes flickered as she slowly adjusted her emotions. A moment later, she turned around and looked at Lu Yanchen’s expressionless face, asking slowly, “Could everything that Xiao Bai’s doing be planned by Yanzhi?”
“No idea!” Lu Yanchen replied honestly.
“Then what do you think is going to happen next?” Shi Guang asked nervously as she looked at the people on the stage.
Lu Yanchen looked at her and smirked, wrapping his arm around her shoulders. “How should I know?”
Shi Guang looked at him hopefully. “Make a guess then!”
He pinched her cheeks. “Can’t guess…”
Shi Guang: “…”
She felt that Lu Yanchen must have understood something, but was unwilling to tell her.
Shi Ze’s mother naturally recognized that child on stage as the young little grandson of the Lu Family. But, why was he calling Qian Xun his mother?
Her face turned pale with fright as she wobbled and nearly fell to the ground, asking with furrowed brows, “Ah Ze, what’s going on?”
