Chapter 161 Lin Wenbin comes to find Su Mengxue!
Was it him, Lin Wenbin? Although five years had passed and he looked much older than before, she still recognized him at first sight. She had never expected to meet him here.
She looked at him and asked subconsciously: "You, why are you here?"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that Zihao was also here. She was afraid that Lin Wenbin would notice something, so she just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
Seeing his mother's surprised expression, Lu Zihao turned to look at the old man in front of him. He looked at her curiously again, tugged at her sleeve, and asked, "Mom, do you know this grandpa?"
Lu Yuanzhou, who was standing next to Lu Zihao, did not recognize the man who suddenly appeared in front of him. He also looked at Su Mengxue in confusion, waiting to hear her next answer.
Without waiting for Su Mengxue to speak, Lin Wenbin walked up to the little boy. After looking him up and down, he asked anxiously, "Kid, what's your name? How old are you?"
Lu Zihao looked up at him with his big round eyes and said, "Grandpa, my mom told me not to tell strangers my identity information, so I can't tell you."
When Lin Wenbin saw his appearance and heard his expression when he spoke, he felt that this child looked so much like Yun Ting that even though he was not completely sure, he guessed it was almost right.
As he spoke, he was about to step forward and touch the little boy's cheek, but was stopped by the man holding his hand. He stood in front of the little boy, looked at him warily, and asked in a cold tone, "Who are you?"
Seeing the man defending the child so much, Lin Wenbin's eyes were full of scrutiny. He said in a serious and cold voice, "Who are you to him?"
Just as Lu Yuanzhou was about to speak, Su Mengxue said to him, "Yuanzhou, it's getting late, let's go back."
Su Mengxue thought that meeting Lin Wenbin here was just a coincidence. She had nothing to say to him, and she didn't want him to have too much contact with Zihao. After she said that, she prepared to take Zihao away.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Lin Wenbin hurriedly said, "I came here specifically to find you. I have something to tell you. I won't keep you too long."
When Su Mengxue heard this, she immediately had a bad premonition in her heart. After thinking for a few moments, she thought that instead of letting her mind wander, it would be better to listen to what he would say.
She turned to look at Lu Yuanzhou and said, "Yuanzhou, take Zihao back first. I have something to talk to him about. I'll be back later."
Lu Yuanzhou looked at Su Mengxue, his eyes filled with worry and concern. He frowned: "Mengxue, is he someone you know? Why have I never heard you mention him?"
Su Mengxue hesitated for a moment, then replied unnaturally, "He's an acquaintance of mine in Jiangbei. You can go back with Zihao without worry."
What she said was not a lie, but she concealed the fact that he was Gu Yunting's superior. The reason she didn't tell Lu Yuanzhou was because she was afraid that he would think too much.
Lu Yuanzhou looked at the man in front of him again and felt that he had an extraordinary temperament. Although he was a little old, he had an upright posture and a majestic demeanor. He was obviously a leader.
Leader? He frowned. The more he looked at him, the more he felt like he had been a soldier. His brows tightened, and a name suddenly popped up in his mind: Gu Yunting.
He quickly came up with a bold guess in his mind. How could Su Mengxue know a soldier? There was only one possibility: the man was Gu Yunting's superior. When this thought came to his mind, his heart sank.
After a brief silence, he looked at Su Mengxue, concealing his uneasiness, and said, "Mengxue, there's a restaurant across the street. It's dinner time now, so why don't you two go there and talk? Don't worry, Zihao and I won't be sitting at the same table with you and won't disturb you. Once you're done, we'll go home together."
The last thing Lu Yuanzhou said was that they should go home together, but his words could easily be misunderstood by others.
Sure enough, he immediately saw the man's face darken, and he became even more certain of his previous guess.
Su Mengxue knew what Lin Wenbin wanted to talk to her about, and she didn't want Lu Yuanzhou and Zihao to hear anything. Just as she was about to refuse, she saw Zihao touching his stomach and said to her coquettishly, "Mom, I'm hungry. You can go to the restaurant across the street to eat. Uncle Lu and I will definitely not disturb your conversation."
Although there was no change in Su Mengxue's expression, the look in her eyes was a little darker and her mood was a little more complicated.
She thought what Lu Yuanzhou said just now was good. This sentence would most likely mislead Lin Wenbin and make him think that Zihao was Lu Yuanzhou's child. But Zihao's words "Uncle Lu" would probably not deceive him anymore.
But Zihao was just a child, how could he understand these things? She didn't mean to blame him at all. She just smiled and leaned over, looking at him dotingly. She couldn't help but pinch his chubby cheeks and scolded him: "Little greedy cat, are you hungry? Okay, then I'll listen to you."
Lu Yuanzhou, who was standing aside, knew much more than Su Mengxue thought. If he was really Gu Yunting's superior, Gu Yunting would probably know the news soon, because Zihao and Gu Yunting were simply cast in the same mold.
He tightened his fingers at his sides, fearing that their future days would not be peaceful.
Lin Wenbin did hear a clue from the child's words. He called the man Uncle Lu, so there was no need to think about it anymore. He could be sure that the child was Yun Ting's child.
At this moment, he felt both happy and guilty. He was too arbitrary back then, which caused Yun Ting and his mother to miss five years of reunion. Thinking of this, he wanted to slap himself a few times.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Su Mengxue deliberately chose a corner seat far away from Zihao and the others. There were not many people in the restaurant at that time, and there were not many people sitting where they were.
She looked at Lin Wenbin who was sitting opposite her and asked directly, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Lin Wenbin stared at Su Mengxue and said firmly, "Is this child Yun Ting's?"
Su Mengxue had anticipated Lin Wenbin's question on the way here, and she replied calmly, "You know everything about what happened back then. He's not Gu Yunting's child."
Lin Wenbin stared at her, and after considering for a moment, he softened his voice and said, "I was wrong to blame you back then. I've done a lot of wrong things. I can apologize to you now, but if he is Yun Ting's child, you should tell him. This will be better for you, him, and the child."
Su Mengxue sneered and replied coldly: "He is not Gu Yunting's child, what should I tell him?"
Seeing that she refused to give in, Lin Wenbin's patience ran out. He frowned and said, "Yun Ting will be back from the island soon. Since you refuse to admit it, I can only let him come and ask you in person."
