Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched. She glanced at Lin Yin, then smiled at the child and said, “Then your father must be very capable! I’ve met your father before! He was working very hard then. I didn’t realize he was your father.”
Lin Yue’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “Really? Aunt, you’ve even met my father? Was father working very hard?”
Gu Qingyao laughed and said, “That’s right, very hard. But your father is very clever. After a while, he made some money and went to do other things. Now he is finally able to come back to spend time with you!”
“Um um!” The girl nodded frantically. “My father is awesome. Father says he has earned a lot of money over the past few years, so our family does not need to suffer anymore!”
Gu Qingyao raised her brows. Family?
What was Chu Yi and Lin Yin’s situation?
Actually, even Lin Yin herself did not know what the current situation was.
The two children were still young. As a mother, she could not possibly tell her children that they were illegitimate and that she and her father were together because of a plot?
The children were too young to understand. She was also afraid that it would affect their character.
To children, family was very simple. Other people had a father and a mother, so they should have the same. But where had Father gone?
So Lin Yin had found a reasonable explanation for the children – Father had gone far away to earn money and support the family.
So for all these years, the children had believed her. They had not realized that their family was any different from other children, who had both father and mother.
Now that Chu Yi had come back to meet them, the children naturally assumed that they were a family.
But… Lin Yin was perplexed. She and Chu Yi were not married?
How were they going to explain that in the future?
The atmosphere in the living room was very odd. Or perhaps, it was the atmosphere between Chu Yi and Lin Yin that was odd. Lin Zheng could clearly sense it.
He lowered his head and was rather quiet. He understood that Father was definitely not as Mother described him.
Actually, his suspicions had begun long ago.
Even if Father had left to earn money, surely there would have been some news of him after all these years?
Why wasn’t there even a photograph of Father in the house?
No matter how poor they were, with two children, Father would surely have left a photograph behind?
Besides, based on what Father said, he had made money later on. Since he had money, why didn’t he write a letter or come back?
Lin Zheng lowered his head. He was rather upset!
Mo Beihan said, “Since you’re here, have a good rest. Stay for dinner tonight! Oh, have you arranged for a place to stay?”
Chu Yi looked up and raised his brows. He looked at Mo Beihan with both displeasure and smugness. “What is there to arrange? Of course I’ll stay at my home. I haven’t seen my two children for so many years. I will sleep with them tonight.”
Mo Beihan: “…”
Fine, fine, fine! He would keep his mouth shut!
Mo Yang saw all this. He raised his brows.
Porter?
Coolie?
Why didn’t he know that this tycoon had done such work before?
This was clearly fake!
In that case, Chu Yi must have only found out recently that Lin Yue and Lin Zheng were his children. Because of Fourth Cousin’s wedding, Chu Yi’s subordinate must have seen Lin Yue’s looks and grown suspicious, so he took photographs and informed Chu Yi?
Hehehe!
Lin Yue and Lin Zheng were still young. They had not grasped the crux of the matter when adults were speaking. But he was not so easily fooled.
