'Ding-ling-ling...' She was just about to make breakfast when the phone suddenly rang.
Mo Boyu's name was jumping on the screen.
Ning Yichu picked up the phone in surprise and tentatively called out, "Mr. Mo?"
"Chu Chu, I just saw your leave application. Are you feeling unwell?" Mo Boyu asked with concern.
Ning Yichu's expression paused slightly, thinking of what happened in the past two days, his face turned grim, "No, it's just that something happened at home."
Mo Boyu only knew that something happened at the Li family yesterday, and it was related to the kidnappers.
But what exactly happened is still unknown because it is an internal matter of the Li family.
He didn't take it to heart at first, but he didn't expect that Ning Yichu had taken a leave today, so he had to connect the two things together!
Mo Boyu's tone was cautious, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
No one can help her with her affairs.
But even so, Ning Yichu was still very grateful, "I can handle it for the time being."
Mo Boyu felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, and said, "Okay, but remember, no matter what happens, I will always stand by you."
…
aing coffee shop.
More than an hour has passed since the agreed time.
Li Lingyang still didn't see Ning Yichu.
He came to her to calm down and have a serious talk.
But now it seems that Ning Yichu is determined to cut off contact with him...
Li Lingyang was upset when suddenly the phone rang and the voice of Special Assistant Xu came.
"Boss Li, the woman from the orphanage has reappeared. We've already sent someone to arrest her..."
Li Lingyang's pupils trembled violently.
According to Special Assistant Xu’s recent investigation, this woman is very likely Chen Bao’s biological mother!
"I'll be right there!"
Li Lingyang looked at the vacant seat opposite, his eyes darkened, and he stood up and walked out.
Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the orphanage.
"Mr. Li, the person is inside!" Special Assistant Xu hurriedly came forward.
Li Lingyang nodded lightly, pushed the door open, and saw a woman in her twenties.
She had a simple ponytail, no makeup on, and her clothes were extremely cheap and simple. She was extremely thin.
Her face was full of panic, especially after seeing Li Lingyang, it was magnified several times.
"Why did you bring me here?!"
Li Lingyang narrowed his eyes and tapped the table with his slender fingers. "I heard that you were asking about Zhuo Chen?"
The woman's body visibly stiffened. "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Li Lingyang glanced at Special Assistant Xu.
The other party understood immediately and placed a document in front of her.
It records everything she said and did in the orphanage these days, as well as her attempts to test Chen Bao.
Hearing this, the woman's stubborn words choked on her lips and she could no longer say anything.
The atmosphere at the scene was frozen.
"Now, what else do you have to say?"
Li Lingyang stared at her coldly and asked, "Who are you and why are you trying to find out about Zhuo Chen?"
The powerful aura unique to the superior came overwhelmingly and set off a huge storm.
A chill rose from the soles of her feet and crawled densely all over the woman's back, making her shudder and unable to hold on any longer.
The woman's voice trembled as she hurriedly explained, "Don't misunderstand me. I didn't come here for any other purpose, nor did I want to hurt anyone. I just wanted to come and see my son..."
Li Lingyang's back suddenly stiffened, a glint of suspicion gathered in his eyes, "Your son?"
"Well, the Zhuo Chen I was looking into...is actually my son!"
The woman's face was pale. She took a deep breath and said, "My name is Chen Hua. Four years ago, I was unable to raise my child due to chronic nephritis, so I had no choice but to send my child to Zhuochen Orphanage. Now that my condition has improved a little and I can work normally, I wanted to take him back, but... I can't find any news about him anymore!!"
When she spoke of the latter part, she couldn't help but choked up.
The person in front of me is... Chen Bao's mother?
The woman he had sex with back then?!
Although Li Lingyang had guessed it in his mind, he was still shocked when he heard it with his own ears, and his heart was filled with emotion.
"When you sent Zhuo Chen here, did you leave any clues?"
"Yes! I left behind a jade pendant, made of Hetian jade..."
Chen Hua added, "It's roughly in the shape of a heart, with a dragon carved on one half and a phoenix carved on the other, symbolizing the auspiciousness of dragon and phoenix!"
The jade pendant also matched!!
Even so, Li Lingyang still had doubts in his heart about this woman who suddenly appeared.
He looked at it and asked, "From your description, if the jade is so precious, why do you have it?"
Chen Hua looked honest and answered calmly, "This was given to me by my grandmother! I heard that my grandfather hired a professional jade carver to make it as a betrothal gift for her..."
Her answer was flawless and Li Lingyang could find no fault with it.
Therefore, we focus on the most critical point -
"Who is Zhuo Chen's father?"
"I, I don't know..."
"have no idea?"
Chen Hua seemed to have recalled some unpleasant memories, and his expression became extremely ugly. "This is a private matter, I don't want to talk about it!"
Li Lingyang's breathing became slightly tense, and his expression gradually became subtle and complicated.
Chen Hua looked at him nervously, "Sir, you keep asking me about my son. Do you have any clues about him?"
Li Lingyang didn't deny it. He hummed lightly, his eyes gleaming with a dark light. "I do know some clues. If you want to meet him, then answer my last question honestly. What exactly is going on between you and Zhuo Chen's father?"
Chen Hua lowered his head, a gleam in his eyes, as if he found it difficult to speak, but for the sake of his child, he still mustered up the courage to say it.
"I didn't lie to you. I really don't know who Zhuo Chen's father is, because we are... a one-night stand!"
Li Lingyang couldn't help but curl his fingers under the table into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.
"Sir, I have already answered all your questions. Now you should tell me the clues about Zhuo Chen, right?!" Chen Hua asked expectantly.
Li Lingyang narrowed his eyes slightly, and a scrutinizing gleam flashed across his eyes.
"Zhuo Chen is my son!"
Chen Hua seemed to have been hit by acupuncture points, and froze in his place, his face full of astonishment, "So what's he doing now..."
"Also by my side."
Chen Hua didn't expect that everything the mysterious phone call said was true. He pretended to be excited and said, "Then, when can I see him?"
Even though this mother of unknown origin answered all the details, Li Lingyang still felt strange in his heart.
He had to ensure 100% accuracy, so he slowly said, "No rush, let's do a paternity test first!"
