Lu Mingji's expression remained unchanged. He met Xu Yanfeng's gaze and said with a smile, "Are you talking about Ziheng and Youyou? I like them very much and often ate with them abroad. I don't mind. I believe they would also be willing to accept me as their father. I feel very happy to have two lovely and intelligent children at once."

Xu Yanfeng also remained calm, but he was laughing in his heart.

Lu Mingji is interesting in that he is eager to be a father to other people's children.

"Then have you ever considered what the biological father of the two children thinks?" Xu Yanfeng said slowly.

When Xia Xi heard this, her heart skipped a beat. Has Xu Yanfeng still not dispelled his doubts?

Lu Mingji was speechless for a moment. The child’s biological father...?

Ding Wenqi was overwhelmed. The atmosphere had just begun to improve, but as soon as Mr. Xu spoke, things became awkward again. He quickly changed the subject: "I think we should have dinner and talk while we eat."

He winked at Zhao Lei, who received the signal and immediately replied, "Yeah, right, I'm so hungry, let's eat!"

Ding Wenqi breathed a sigh of relief and asked everyone to move to the dining area nearby.

Everyone did not hesitate and moved forward, taking their seats around the large round table.

The dinner was coming to an end. Xia Xi had drunk a lot of wine and whispered in Lu Mingji's ear that she wanted to go to the bathroom. Lu Mingji kindly asked if she needed him to accompany her, but she refused and went to the bathroom with her bag.

Their interaction did not escape Xu Yanfeng's eyes. He narrowed his eyes, picked up the wine glass beside him and drank it all. After a while, he also stood up and left the box.

After going to the bathroom, Xia Xi put on makeup in front of the mirror. She clearly saw her slightly tired face in the mirror. She tried to pull up the corners of her mouth, but they drooped down the next second.

Attending the class reunion tonight was indeed a wrong choice.

She slowly exhaled the foul air that was stuck in her chest, turned around and walked out towards the box. Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her into an empty box with an unshakable force.

Before Xia Xi could even scream, the door was closed and the sound of the lock rang in her ears.

It was pitch black all around, her back was pressed against the hard door panel, and in front of her was the equally hard... man's chest.

A crisp scent of cedar mixed with a hint of tobacco and the aroma of mellow alcohol invaded her sense of smell.

Three words automatically popped up in Xia Xi's mind - Xu Yanfeng.

She wanted to ask him what he was doing, but she didn't have the chance to ask. Her lips were blocked, and the kiss that was almost like biting made her feel no warmth at all, only pain.
