The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback-Chapter 972 - 976: Not the Child’s Father

"Princess, you’ve finally... huh?"

Another young girl’s voice resounded in the inner chamber.

Ji Nan walked out holding a child, her eyes widening in shock upon seeing Yu Siqiao, "Yu... Young Master Yu?"

Mo Shu took off her hat, ignoring Ji Nan’s astonishment, and stepped forward to take the child.

Jie Kong also looked at Ji Nan, clearly observing the expression on the woman’s face change from shock, to disbelief, and then to tears welling up.

Ji Nan exclaimed excitedly, "Young Master Yu, you came too!"

It’s the face... 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

How did it get beaten like this?

Let’s not even talk about the bruises; the face is swollen like a bun.

Ji Nan was seeing Young Master Yu in this state for the first time.

Jie Kong remained expressionless, only observing Ji Nan’s excitement, while glancing slightly at Mo Shu.

The dark-clad woman who had just saved him had revealed her breathtakingly beautiful face when she removed the black veiled hat.

Born in the palace, Jie Kong had seen countless beauties of all sorts.

But he had never seen a beauty of such caliber.

Her face was like peach and plum, her glances divine; even as she held the child and smiled gently, she resembled a goddess from the heavens.

At that moment, the goddess, while soothing the child, said helplessly, "He’s not him."

Ji Nan’s tears were already streaming down, but Mo Shu’s words abruptly halted her emotions.

Jie Kong responded indifferently, "It seems there’s a story behind this. The reason the lady saved me might not be as simple as requesting a guard."

Mo Shu chuckled slightly, "To be honest, you resemble my husband a lot..."

She paused for a moment, adding, "He’s also the father of my child."

Jie Kong’s eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Ji Nan, incredulous, asked, "Princess, is he really not Young Master Yu?"

Mo Shu’s smile carried some hardship, but she shook her head, "No, he’s not."

Ji Nan felt a bit disappointed but was unwilling to give up, staring intently at Jie Kong.

Jie Kong’s expression was calm, seeming entirely unaware of Ji Nan’s scrutinizing gaze.

Mo Shu said, "I’m going to feed the child."

Then, Mo Shu walked into the inner chamber.

Leaving Jie Kong and Ji Nan staring at each other, Ji Nan suddenly asked, "Are you really not Young Master Yu?"

Jie Kong finally looked at her, speaking calmly, "My name is Jie Kong."

Jie Kong, Jie Kong, all is emptiness.

Ji Nan’s expression turned peculiar, "Have you become a monk?"

Jie Kong: "...No."

Ji Nan ceased speaking to him.

This time, Jie Kong stood up, saying, "The time is late, and Jie Kong shouldn’t stay long. If there’s anything, just call my name, and I’ll be there."

Ji Nan stood to see him off, and soon Jie Kong left.

Returning to the inner chamber, Ji Nan found Mo Shu holding the child in a daze.

Little Tangguan, teary-eyed, clung to Mom’s chest, nursing hungrily.

Little Honey Pot, having eaten and drunk his fill, was kicking his legs on the bed, calling for a hug when he saw Ji Nan return.

Ji Nan picked up the child again and asked Mo Shu, "Is he really not Young Master Yu?"

Mo Shu returned from her daze, shaking her head, "No, he’s not."

Ji Nan suddenly felt a tinge of sadness.

Indeed.

If he were Young Master Yu, how could he bear to be so politely distant with the princess? How could he remain unmoved while the child cried endlessly before him?

Clearly having Yu Siqiao’s face, yet not being the princess’s husband or the child’s father.
