The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 845 - 843: Courting Disaster

"It’s probably too late to realize your mistake now! Lu Beichen wouldn’t have released the video directly unless he really wanted to bring you down. I’ve told you time and again not to act rashly. Your actions have put me in a position where I can’t even deal with him anymore!"

"You’re still thinking about dealing with him!" Gu Xiyao grabbed him and said, "Ning Zeyan, haven’t you always claimed you liked me? You’ve wanted me since six years ago, and now that you’ve got me, does it mean nothing?"

"I have always wanted you, but I thought you were like me. I didn’t expect you to be so foolish. But what can I do? I still like you!" He said, gripping her by the neck, "Gu Xiyao, this is the last time I will tolerate this. This lawyer is the top lawyer in New City, and I worked really hard to get him for you. Communicate well with him and tell him the whole story!"

"The whole story?!" Gu Xiyao murmured softly to herself. The whole story—she couldn’t think of a way to absolve herself.

She sat back in her seat, and Ning Zeyan spoke up, "Lawyer Wang, let’s begin!"

"Miss Gu, I need you to honestly tell me what exactly happened that day!"

Ji Niandong was lying on the sofa at home with her son, reading a comic book, when suddenly the doorbell rang. Lu Sinian shouted loudly, "Dad, someone’s at the door, go open it!"

Hearing this, Lu Beichen came out of the kitchen. Seeing the big one and the little one, he couldn’t help but smile and shake his head. He went to open the door and his brow furrowed.

He was dressed in casual clothes, probably just having finished cooking, with an apron still on!

Tong Songlin had never seen Lu Beichen like this before. A man like him, would he really cook for a woman and child?

Lu Beichen took off the apron and put it aside, then asked coldly, "What are you here for?"

"I’m still Tongtong’s mother. Am I not allowed to see how my daughter’s doing after getting married?"

Ji Niandong heard her voice and sat up. Little Bun finally sensed something was wrong and asked, "Who is it?"

He hopped over to the door and saw Tong Songlin and asked, "Who is this?"

"Nian Nian, right?" Tong Songlin walked in and looked at him, "Back then, I was the one who held you and personally handed you over to him, Beichen, do you remember?"

"Do you know me?" Lu Sinian frowned.

"I’m your mom’s mom, so do you think I know you?" Tong Songlin talked to the child. Though her face was stern, her tone was a bit gentler.

"You’re my mom’s mom, so you’re the one who abandoned my mom?" Lu Sinian replied instinctively and then asked, "So are you here to acknowledge her now?"

"What are you here for?" Ji Niandong pulled Lu Sinian into her arms and asked.

Seeing her on guard, Tong Songlin said directly, "The mess Xi Yao is in now, it’s Beichen who did it, right? Now I’ve been recognized too. Everyone is saying Tongtong is an illegitimate child. Is this your goal?"

"You know my goal clearly. When you do something wrong, you face the consequences. Don’t use Tongtong as an excuse!" Lu Beichen responded lightly.

Ji Niandong also spoke up, "I am indeed an illegitimate child; there’s nothing to hide. I don’t care what others say about me! You don’t need to come here to say these things; you should take care of yourself!"

Indeed, now the ones being criticized more harshly online are her and Sheng Mingyuan, one for having an affair, the other for being with a married woman.

Everyone believes the child is innocent, and Ji Niandong has been spared the worst!

"How things are said on the internet is guided by you! But I’ve anticipated this day since long ago!"

Was it her fault? Ji Niandong pressed her lips tight but heard her say, "Now, this is a lot better than I imagined!"
