For a time, the Shang family became household names and celebrities that made a sensation in the county. Whether in the streets or in high-end clubs, teahouses, hotels, and shopping malls, their family always attracted a lot of attention.
Even the sanitation worker who was sweeping the floor chased after Bai Meng and Cha Cha and asked, "Madam, is that you? And this child, is she your granddaughter?"
Bai Meng lowered her head, looking at the magazine in the sanitation worker's hand, and asked the sanitation worker in confusion, "This is me and my granddaughter, but I look a little too ugly in this photo."
"It says your daughter gave birth to a child out of wedlock. Is that true?"
"I...does this have anything to do with you? Just focus on sweeping your floor and don't listen to those gossipers."
"No... Madam... I'm just curious, so please tell me!"
"Okay, the floor has been swept. Move aside. I still have to take our Cha Cha out for afternoon tea!" Bai Meng snatched the magazine from the sanitation worker and threw it into the trash can behind her.
She pulled Cha Cha and turned around to leave, but she was blocked by a crowd of curious people who gathered around her.
"Madam, please tell me. Is this your daughter? Is she Miss Shang Qingke's biological daughter?"
"Yes! Who is the father of the child?"
"Wasn't Miss Shang previously engaged to Wang Zhengsheng, the prince of the Wang Group? How come Wang Zhengsheng suddenly married someone else?"
"Could this child be from the Wang family?"
"Yes! Did Miss Shang get pregnant and then be abandoned, so she gave birth to a daughter out of wedlock?"
…
The onlookers blocked Bai Meng and Cha Cha in place, and asked them questions all at once.
Bai Meng was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He snatched the broom from the sanitation worker and started beating up passers-by.
"Get out of here, you gossipers! What does our family's affairs have to do with you? Are you bored? Get out, get out, and do what you need to do..."
The onlookers were so scared that they ran around. Cha Cha hid next to a trash can, trembling with fear.
"Who are these people? A rich lady from the upper class. What's the difference between her and poor people like us? She's just a shrew who wears better clothes." A bystander said to Bai Meng with contempt.
The moment Bai Meng decided to accept Cha Cha, she prepared for the worst. What was face, what was reputation, these were not as important as a family being together happily.
Now, she no longer cares about her face. In order to protect her daughter and granddaughter, she doesn't mind being called a shrew by everyone.
"You guys who have nothing better to do than eat, I'm telling you, if you keep doing this, I'm going to call the police and hire a lawyer to sue you for defamation."
Bai Meng raised the broom in his hand and shouted at the crowd who were still unwilling to give in.
Some people in the crowd were taking pictures with cameras, and it was not difficult to see that there were reporters among them.
"Defamation? Mrs. Shang, what evidence do you have to prove that we are defaming you? Isn't the child Wang's?" The person who spoke had a pen and a notebook in his hands, and asked questions very professionally. He should be a reporter from some gossip magazine.
"Why should I tell you whose the child is?" Bai Meng responded patiently.
"Then can you tell us who the child's biological father is? Where has Miss Shang been during these four years?"
Bai Meng replied confidently, "This is our family matter, I have no comment."
"Then why hasn't the child's father appeared until now?"
“…” Bai Meng was so angry that he couldn’t speak.
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of Bai Meng, the man turned his attention to Cha Cha who was standing next to the trash can.
She bent down and said to Cha Cha with a smile, "Little sister, can you tell me what your father's name is?"
Although Cha Cha is a very outgoing person, she is still very scared when facing so many strangers who are eyeing her eagerly.
Seeing this, Bai Meng pulled Cha Cha behind him.
"What are you doing? Not only are you making things difficult for me, but you even put a little child in the ward. If you scare her, I will never forgive you." Bai Meng glared at the person angrily and shouted, pointing at her nose.
After saying that, she picked up Cha Cha and ran away at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
Such things are not uncommon. Ever since Cha Cha appeared in the public eye, Bai Meng and Cha Cha always encounter such nosy people.
Qing Ke just wanted to live a quiet life, but she didn't expect that even if the tree wanted to be quiet, the wind would not stop.
The rumors had already affected Wang Zhengsheng and Youyou's daily lives. Whenever they went out, they were often met by reporters. These reporters were desperate to get firsthand information, and some even followed them around the clock.
Wang Zhengsheng and Youyou have quarreled over this more than once.
That day, after several minor quarrels, Youyou finally exploded.
"Zhengsheng, tell me the truth, is that child your own flesh and blood?" Under public pressure, Youyou had begun to distrust Wang Zhengsheng, who slept with her.
They had been married for three years, and although they had always been in harmony and treated each other with respect, Youyou had never been able to bear a child for the Wang family. A happy life inevitably lacked some regrets, especially for a prominent family like theirs.
Zhengsheng certainly played the role of a good husband. Not only did he not put any pressure on Youyou, but he also comforted her and told her not to worry too much and just let things take their course.
But Zhengsheng's parents couldn't hold it in any longer and always found ways to find fault with Youyou. What's more, Youyou was not the daughter-in-law they liked.
