Chapter 179 When will Qi Yan be cleared of his name?

Pei Xing reviewed for two days and finished reading the book, but still had plenty of time, so he suggested going to Lifang Plaza to draw sketches.

After lunch, the two took a bus to the square to reserve a seat. After Christmas is New Year's Day, and after New Year's Day is the time when students have winter vacation and white-collar workers have annual leave, so the flow of people during this period is particularly good.

As soon as I set up the easel, a customer came to paint, and soon a group of people gathered around me.

It was the same as last time, some were chatting up the other, some were filming videos, and in order to make money, both of them cooperated very well.

When everyone learned from chatting that Qi Yan was filming an animation at Qing University, a video tagged with Qing Chong University was posted on the Internet.

"You have very sophisticated skills. How many years have you learned it?" A deep and magnetic voice sounded beside Qi Yan.

Qi Yan was drawing for a guest, so he didn't look up. "I haven't learned it."

Gu Nan looked over when he heard the voice and saw a well-dressed, handsome middle-aged man in a business suit, cashmere coat, leather shoes and tie.

He lowered his eyes and looked at Qi Yan, sizing him up with an indescribable complex expression.

Gu Nan recognized him as Pei Hong, but when he looked beside him, he didn't see Cui Mingzhu.

One night should be enough for them to find out the truth. Only Pei Hong came. Does Cui Mingzhu not want to admit it or does he dare not admit it?

Gu Nan's gaze was too direct and sharp. Pei Hong turned his head sharply to look at her, and his brows suddenly furrowed like a small mountain.

Gu Nan couldn't help but smile, only the corners of his lips curled up slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Doesn't it look like he likes her very much?

Was it that the truth she revealed was too harsh, making him feel that she was destroying his family?

"Uncle, do you want me to draw a sketch? Five dollars a sketch. I have excellent skills and I am honest to you." Gu Nan said.

Pei Hong knew that she recognized him, and his face darkened. His eyebrows were pulled down very low, making him look very intimidating. This was the aura honed from being in a high position for many years.

But Gu Nan was not his employee, and was afraid of him being a fairy boss, so he turned cold and said, "Drawing? If you want to draw, go to the other side and queue up."

Pei Hong turned his gaze away coldly and remained silent.

The client of the paternity test was named Gu Nan, so he checked her identity and resume. She was a young girl who had dropped out of middle school. She had been hanging around in the slums for years and made a living by collecting debts for others. Recently, she simply stopped collecting debts and just stayed at home to live off her savings.

No, not only did she live off her savings, she also exploited Qi Yan to paint to support her.

Although he had not completely confirmed that Qi Yan was his child, he had already accepted it to some extent in his heart. That was why he was extremely angry when he knew that Gu Nan had bullied Qi Yan.

Gu Nan didn't know that Pei Hong looked at her this way. If she knew, she would definitely slap him a few times.

She hid her bank transaction records simply because she didn't want to explain why she suddenly learned programming and could program without a computer by connecting to the helmet, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble, not to let Pei Hong slander her and look down on her.

Pei Hong wanted to talk to Qi Yan, but Gu Nan always teased him, and it was almost as if "I don't like it" was written on his face.

She couldn't stand Pei Hong, and Pei Hong couldn't stand her either. The two of them sat on Qi Yan's left and stood on his right, like two cold-faced gods.

People who didn't know the truth saw Gu Nan's sour face, so they filmed her and sent it out.

The video was filled with remarks like "You can make money with a sour face", which immediately triggered a bloody storm.

Pei Hong stood beside Qi Yan and watched for a long time, then finally went to line up and draw a picture.

Then he noticed that Qi Yan looked at him as if he were a stranger, as if he had no idea who he was, let alone their relationship.

Pei Hong looked at Gu Nan who was sitting next to Qi Yan. She was supporting her chin with her hand and watching Qi Yan painting. When she noticed his gaze, she rolled her eyes at him.

After paying, Pei Hong took the painting and left the crowd.

Gu Nan chased out under the pretext of going to the restroom, "Mr. Pei, please stay."

Pei Hong stopped and looked back.

Gu Nan: "Let's be frank. You have received the paternity test results. When do you plan to clear Qi Yan's name?"

Pei Hong had a blank expression on his face, his indifferent eyes hinting at disdain. "What's it to you? What's your plan in doing those things without telling Qi Yan?"

Gu Nan pondered over these words. Pei Hong seemed to have taken Qi Yan under his protection. In fact, he neither denied nor confirmed it. His intentions were unclear, and he even made malicious speculations about her. If he were an honest person, he would have started to prove himself by now.

Gu Nan is not a pushover. It doesn't make sense for him to suffer after doing good things.

She sneered, "What qualifications do you have to say these things to me? Who are you to Qi Yan? Have you ever fulfilled your responsibilities?"

Pei Hong's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"I overestimated you. Your own son is wandering around, never fulfilling his parental responsibilities for a single day. And yet you're putting on airs after a mysterious trip. Is this how you, a prestigious family, behave?"

Gu Nan laughed, but it was even more irritating than not laughing at all. "Don't think I'm being harsh. If you have any conscience, you'll know that what I said is not excessive at all."

Pei Hong couldn't hold back his anger. This girl named Gu Nan was really sharp-tongued and not at all likable. "What do you want?"

Gu Nan seemed to have heard a joke, "What do I want?"

Please, does this person have a tumor on his neck? How can he say such outrageous things?

Gu Nan couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Do you think I'm plotting something bad against Qi Yan, or am I just coveting your Pei family's wealth?"

Pei Hong sneered, "I don't want to say anything too harsh."

The two people who met by chance lived together within a few days, and within less than a month, she dug out Qi Yan's background and sent the paternity test to them. If she didn't have other intentions, how could she explain her behavior?

Gu Nan couldn't laugh anymore. His face was wooden and his cold eyes seemed to have determined his fate in an instant.

"I'm glad I didn't show the paternity test to Qi Yan. It would be a shame for him to know that he has a father like this."

Pei Hong frowned fiercely. He had always been the pride of those around him. When had he ever been belittled like this? Moreover, as a father, being regarded as a disgrace to his son was his real shame.

He was completely enraged, almost blurting out, "It's because of you that I hesitated so much. You're the stain on Qi Yan."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned.

But once the words are spoken, they cannot be taken back.

He did hesitate because of Gu Nan, but it was definitely not just because of her, it was more because of Pei Xing.

A child who has been brought up in pampered circumstances suddenly finds out one day that he is a swapped raccoon cat in the slums. How should he cope with the situation?

The feelings they have had for many years are not fake. He has to think of a way out for Pei Xing before he can take Qi Yan home with peace of mind.

As for Qi Yan not wanting to recognize him?

Pei Hong had hardly ever thought of this possibility. It was because he had experienced suffering that he had a yearning for power. He believed that no one could resist the temptation of jumping from the slums to the top of the pyramid overnight.
