Chapter 374 Strong Uneasy
Shen Qianxun was a little scared by his gaze, and shrank behind Shen Hanxing, but still mustered up the courage to say: “Uncle, don’t scare my mother.”
Xuanyuan Ge was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
The smile was very faint, but it was enough to shock Shen Hanxing. She had never seen Xuanyuan Ge smile, let alone a smile so... gentle.
"I didn't scare your mother. We were talking about something." He squatted down, looked at Chihiro straight in the eye, and spoke in a soft tone.
Qianxun nodded, still a little afraid of him, but seeing that he had no ill intentions, she relaxed a little: "Yeah. Uncle, you'd better be careful. If you bully my mother, my father will not let you go."
"Your father?" Xuanyuan Ge's eyes flashed, "Are you talking about Qi Moxun?"
"Yeah." A hint of pride appeared on Qianxun's little face. "You are my dad now. You didn't expect it!"
"Really?" Xuanyuan Ge listened patiently with a smile on his face. "Did he ever tell you the story of Wuyin Mountain?"
"Mist Hidden Mountain?" Chihiro shook her head. "No. What kind of place is that?"
"It's a very mysterious place, with glowing stones and singing streams."
Xuanyuan Ge's voice was very soft, as if he was telling a fairy tale. "However, there are also very fierce beasts there, so you can't go there casually."
Chihiro's eyes lit up when she heard that.
"Really? Then can I go and see it later?"
"Let's talk about it when you grow up."
Xuanyuan Ge reached out and gently touched Qianxun's head, his movements natural and intimate.
Shen Hanxing's heart sank suddenly, and alarm bells rang.
Something is wrong.
Something is so wrong.
Who are the Xuanyuan Pavilion?
He is a ruthless character in the business world who is so decisive and ruthless that even Mr. Xuanyuan has to be wary of him. How could he be so patient with a strange child?
And you smile so gently?
Even... the way he looked at Chihiro was filled with an indescribable complex emotion, like... love?
A terrible thought flashed through her mind: Did he know?
impossible.
She and Han Lingcui were so secretive that she even destroyed the paternity test report...
But if he didn't know, how do you explain his reaction just now?
Shen Hanxing suppressed the panic in his heart, walked forward and pulled Qianxun behind him, his tone cold.
"Mr. Xuanyuan, we haven't finished talking yet."
Xuanyuan Ge withdrew his hand, stood up, and the gentleness on his face disappeared in an instant. He turned back into the head of the Xuanyuan family with a strong aura and sharp eyes.
"What do you think of my proposal?"
Chen Hanxing hugged Fu Yicheng, and held Qianxun tightly with his other hand, his fingertips turning white from the force.
Her mind was now full of Xuanyuan Pavilion's abnormal attitude towards Chihiro, and she had no way of thinking calmly about the matter of Kirigakure Mountain.
"I need time to think about it," she said stubbornly.
"Okay." Xuanyuan Ge looked at his watch.
"But don't wait too long. I'll wait for you for three days at most." He paused, his eyes falling on Chihiro again, and asked casually, "This child... I quite like her."
Shen Hanxing’s heart tightened again, but his face remained expressionless: “He is my son, Mr. Xuanyuan, don’t joke.”
"That's right." Xuanyuan Ge smiled and turned to walk to the door. "I'll wait for your reply in three days."
The bodyguard followed him, the office door was closed, and the heavy footsteps gradually faded away.
It was not until he confirmed that they had really left that Shen Hanxing's legs went weak and he almost couldn't stand.
She hugged Fu Yicheng tightly in her arms, and then hugged Qianxun into her arms, her heart still pounding.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Chihiro felt something was wrong with her and looked up worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"It's okay, Mommy."
Shen Hanxing took a deep breath and tried to calm down, “Qianxun, don’t talk to that uncle just now in the future, understand?”
"Why?" Chihiro was puzzled.
After all, before, Qianxun thought that although Uncle Xuanyuan was fierce, he was not a bad person.
"He's not good." Shen Hanxing's voice trembled a little, "He is a very dangerous person, stay away from him, understand?"
Although Qianxun didn't understand, seeing her mother's serious expression, she nodded obediently: "I know, Mom."
Shen Hanxing sent the two children back to the lounge and locked the door.
She walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and watched the black Bentley drive out of the parking lot, her heart growing more and more uneasy.
Xuanyuan Pavilion’s attitude towards Qianxun is too suspicious.
Even if he didn't know the truth, he definitely noticed something.
Otherwise, with his personality, he would never waste time on a child.
What exactly does he want to do?
Does he simply think Chihiro is cute, or is he...testing her?
Shen Hanxing didn't dare to think about it anymore.
She took out her cell phone, found Han Lingcui's number, hesitated for a long time, but still didn't dial it.
It is still uncertain whether Xuanyuan Pavilion knows the truth. Telling Han Lingcui rashly will only make her more worried.
Let's wait a little longer.
She would wait three days and see his reaction when she gave Xuanyuan Pavilion her reply.
But what about Wuyin Mountain? Do we really need to go?
Shen Hanxing rubbed his aching solar plexus.
Going is too dangerous. She can't risk the safety of herself and her child. If she doesn't go, she is afraid that the cooperation between Fu Jingheng and Xuanyuan Ce will really affect Fu Yicheng, and even... implicate Qianxun.
There is also Xuanyuan Pavilion.
Was he here this time because of Fu Jingheng's matter, or because of Qianxun? Or was it both?
Countless questions swirled in her mind, giving her a splitting headache.
The laughter of Qianxun and Fu Yicheng came from the lounge. The crisp sound was like a warm current, slightly soothing her inner anxiety.
She walked to the door of the lounge and looked inside through the crack.
Qianxun was holding a storybook and telling a story to Fu Yicheng clumsily. Although she didn't recognize many of the words, she told the story very seriously.
Fu Yicheng sat on the carpet next to him, holding a building block in his hand, and kept correcting Qianxun's pronunciation.
The sunlight shines through the window onto them, casting a golden halo on them. The scene is so warm that it melts one's heart.
Shen Hanxing secretly clenched his fists.
No matter what Xuanyuan Pavilion's purpose is, no matter how dangerous Wuyin Mountain is, she must protect these two children.
She turned back to her desk, turned on the computer, and began searching for information about Wuyin Mountain and Xuanyuan Ce.
Whether she goes or not, she must first understand the enemy's background clearly.
Lines of text popped up on the screen, describing the mystery and danger of Wuyin Mountain, as well as Xuanyuan Ce's heinous crimes.
The more Shen Hanxing looked at it, the more frightened he became, and cold sweat broke out on his palms.
Just then, her cell phone rang. It was Qi Moxun calling.
"Han Xing, are you free tonight? I want to take Qianxun out to play."
Qi Moxun's voice was as gentle as ever.
Shen Hanxing looked at the information about Xuanyuan Ce on the screen, and thought of Xuanyuan Ge’s attitude towards Qianxun just now, and suddenly a strong sense of uneasiness arose in his heart.
She said to the phone: "Axun, can you come to the company tonight? I have something to tell you."
There are some things that she can no longer bear alone.
