Chapter 18: Eyesore

Fang Yuxin looked at the man opposite her. She had only eaten less than half of the exquisite dishes on the table, but she had completely lost her appetite. Perhaps because she no longer had that throbbing in her heart, she became much more sober. Details that she had never noticed before were now obvious. Fang Yuxin saw all of Qiu Yiming's cautious probing clearly.

After some polite conversation, seeing that Qiu Yiming still wanted to continue testing him, Fang Yuxin felt annoyed and completely lost interest in pretending to be nice to him.

So she put down her chopsticks and said politely, "I'm done eating." Qiu Yiming was about to say something, but it got stuck in his throat. He wasn't full yet, but since Fang Yuxin said so, he naturally couldn't continue, so he said, "I'll take you home."

If it were in the past, he might have invited Fang Yuxin to watch a movie or something, but too many things have happened recently, and he really can't spare more time. If he hadn't planned to go see Bai Qianqian, he wouldn't even offer to send Fang Yuxin home. It's not that he doesn't care, it's that he really doesn't have time.

Fang Yuxin didn't want Qiu Yiming to go to Fang's house. At this time, she was already wary of Qiu Yiming, so she said, "No need, I drove here."

Qiu Yiming was very persistent. He glanced at the colorful night scene outside, and his attitude was gentle and domineering, just right: "It's getting late, and the city is not peaceful recently. I'm worried about letting you go home alone." While speaking, he quickly signed the bill, and then continued to say to Fang Yuxin, "Let's go, I'll take you home."

Fang Yuxin couldn't refuse anymore, so she went downstairs to the garage with Qiu Yiming. He didn't drive his own car, but got into Fang Yuxin's car. Fang Yuxin looked calm, and drove the car quickly into the traffic at night. Neither of them talked much, which was too awkward, so Fang Yuxin played the song "Yiyou". The lingering song slowly flowed out of the speaker, but it was a sad song, telling the story of lovers who were originally in love but eventually went their separate ways.

Fang Yuxin thought of that dream, and her mood instantly fell. Following the song, she was immersed in helpless sadness. But she heard Qiu Yiming say, "The song is good, but it's not suitable for us." After he said that, he reached out and changed the song. The sad melody suddenly stopped, and suddenly turned into cheerful and smooth music, expressing the sweetness of love.

Qiu Yiming smiled with satisfaction and said to Fang Yuxin, "This song is good. You should listen to less sad songs. They are not suitable for you. What's more, as long as I am here, I will not let you have the chance to be sad." His voice became lower and lower, and finally it became a whisper. While saying this, his eyes were deeply looking at Fang Yuxin, overflowing with deep affection, as if he wanted to drown Fang Yuxin in it.

Fang Yuxin's heart trembled fiercely, and at the same time it was sweet, it seemed as if a thorn was deeply pierced inside. She could not forget that in the dream, Qiu Yiming also looked at Fang Mengyao with such eyes, and when he looked at her, his eyes turned into regret and hesitant words. No matter how deep the love is, it can't resist the temptation of the superpower. What's more, Fang Mengyao in the dream is not just an ordinary superpower! She also got the Qingmu Lingfu!

Fang Yuxin smiled and didn't respond. She didn't want to say anything now, and she didn't know what to say. She didn't even dare to turn her head to look at Qiu Yiming, for fear that he would see something.

At this moment, Qiu Yiming suddenly turned around and looked out the window. Fang Yuxin looked at him suspiciously, and saw Qiu Yiming staring at the direction of the window with strong hostility bursting out of his body, as if he had seen an enemy.

Fang Yuxin couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's wrong?"

Qiu Yiming had already turned around and leaned back in his chair, his expression somewhat doubtful and unwilling. He shook his head: "Nothing."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Fang Yuxin stopped asking and continued to drive with full concentration. After what happened, Qiu Yiming lost interest in flirting. He looked unhappy and kept thinking about the car that just drove past. He had a hunch that Bai Ye was inside!

After thinking about it, Qiu Yiming took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to his confidant. Because Fang Yuxin was also there, he couldn't call her to talk about this matter in front of her. After explaining it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, they arrived at Fang's house. The car had just entered the garage and hadn't parked yet when Bai Qianqian, who had heard the noise, rushed out: "Mom, you're back!" Then, he saw the car door open and Qiu Yiming walked out.

Bai Qianqian had never met Qiu Yiming, but Qiu Yiming had seen his photo. But at this time, Qiu Yiming could only pretend that he didn't know Bai Qianqian. He turned to look at Fang Yuxin in surprise: "Xinxin, who is this child?"

Bai Qianqian made no secret of his hostility towards Qiu Yiming. He had a hunch that this man had a special relationship with Fang Yuxin. He glared at Qiu Yiming fiercely, then rushed to Fang Yuxin's side, hugged her legs and looked at Qiu Yiming provocatively: "I am Mama's son! Who are you?"

Qiu Yiming was really shocked this time. He knew Bai Qianqian's identity, so when he learned that Bai Qianqian had been living in Fang's house, he felt something was wrong. Why didn't Fang Yuxin call the police? Why didn't she send him away? He had guessed many possibilities, but he never thought that Bai Qianqian would be Fang Yuxin's son!

This time he came to Fang's house specifically just to see with his own eyes whether Bai Qianqian was still here, and to find a way to let Fang Yuxin send him away. But he never thought that such a secret would be waiting for him!

This is simply impossible! Fang Yuxin has never given birth to a child, he knows this very well! However, seeing the similar faces of Bai Qianqian and Fang Yuxin, Qiu Yiming couldn't convince himself that this was fake! He frowned fiercely, and looked at Fang Yuxin with the last glimmer of hope: "Xinxin, what's going on?"

Ever since that dream, Fang Yuxin had always felt that her engagement with Qiu Yiming was a problem. Now that Qiu Yiming had seen Bai Qianqian, she suddenly felt that this was an opportunity. So she said, "He is right. In terms of blood relationship, he is indeed my son. I only found out about this not long ago."

Qiu Yiming instantly recalled Bai Qianqian's origins. The news from the Bai family said that Bai Ye had a son named Bai Qianqian, who was brought home by Bai Ye from an underground illegal organization, and was a test-tube baby. When he saw the news at that time, he didn't pay much attention to it, just thinking that Bai Ye was too kind to even keep such a child by his side. Now thinking about it again, he just felt that Bai Qianqian's birth was really an eyesore!

He didn't really dislike Bai Ye, but he didn't like him either. He treated Bai Ye just because they were on different sides. But after learning about Bai Qianqian's identity, he wanted to kill the father and son himself! Bai Qianqian shouldn't have been born in this world, and Bai Ye deserved to die!
