667 Mu Qinglan
Xie Yunzhou subconsciously said, “That’s impossible.”
“This is the news circulating on the internet,” the assistant replied.
Xie Yunzhou turned on his computer and searched for all the so-called ‘solid evidence’ on the internet.
The assistant handed over a document. “I’ve already checked. That child is indeed Chu Yuan’s son born out of wedlock. His name is Chu Jiamu.”
Xie Yunzhou opened the file, which contained a series of information about Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan had gotten married and had a child four years ago. He had hidden his marital status for his career until now, when it was exposed.
Xie Yunzhou lowered his eyes and asked, “Who was the one who released the news?”
The assistant was startled. “I haven’t found out about this yet.”
“Go and investigate,” Xie Yunzhou said.
After the assistant left, Xie Yunzhou unlocked his phone.
Shi Xi didn’t send him a message.
Didn’t Shi Xi send him a single explanation after the incident had blown up?
..
Shi Xi’s messages had already exploded. Her friends and family took turns calling her to send messages, but she simply muted her phone and ignored them.
Shi Xi was not afraid of rumors.
But this time, it was obvious that someone had set a trap for her to fall into.
“I want to ask Teacher Chu Yuan, why did Jia Mu call me ‘Mommy’? Who taught him that?” Shi Xi’s eyes were cold as she stared at Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan was startled. “What? I’ve never taught him this.”
“He’s just a three-year-old child. If no one taught him, I don’t believe he would stick to me and treat me like his mother.” Shi Xi’s expression was solemn.
“Chu Yuan has been working recently,” the manager said hurriedly. “His mother has been taking care of Jia Mu.”
“Where’s Jia Mu’s mother?”
The manager didn’t want to say more.
Han Chuan leaned back in his chair and said, “We’re here today to discuss a solution.”
“If you don’t want to say anything, then please clarify that this has nothing to do with Shi Xi.”
It didn’t matter to Shi Xi anyway.
“I’m sorry,” Chu Yuan repeated.
Manager: “We shouldn’t have implicated Miss Shi. But our Chu Yuan is innocent. He didn’t cheat on her.”
“Then I’ll go back and ask who taught Jia Mu to call me mommy.” Shi Xi stood up and pretended to leave.
“Wait! Mu Qinglan should have taught him that,” Chu Yuan said helplessly.
“Mu Qinglan?”
“It’s Jia Mu’s mother.” The manager could only be honest. “Mu Qinglan requests a high amount of child support from Chu Yuan because of their divorce. Otherwise, she would expose the news that Chu Yuan had a child in secret.”
Shi Xi was speechless. No wonder Chu Yuan had been earning money lately.
“Why does she want to involve me?” Shi Xi frowned. “I’ve never provoked her, have I?”
Chu Yuan still said the same thing, “I’m sorry.”
Han Chuan hit the nail on the head. “So, all of this was done by Mrs. Chu to take revenge on Mr. Chu?”
“I’ll have a good chat with her. I won’t drag Miss Shi into this,” Chu Yuan said.
Shi Xi’s face was expressionless. “This has nothing to do with me. I hope Mr. Chu can clarify things as soon as possible to prove my innocence.”
“Can I trouble you to continue taking care of Jia Mu during this period of time?” Chu Yuan asked tiredly.
“You can’t,” Shi Xi rejected him directly.
Taking care of other people’s children…
Not only would there be no benefits, but she would also end up with a bad reputation.
Whoever wanted to be a stepmother could do it.
Chu Yuan was even more exhausted.
Although he was very handsome, Shi Xi wasn’t moved at all.
His beauty was misleading!
She could not agree so easily just because Chu Yuan was good-looking!
After the discussion, Shi Xi sent a clarification message.
She didn’t care what was going on with Chu Yuan!
