CHAPTER 923: CHAPTER 69: BIOLOGICAL SON

Chapter 69

Yan Yuan hesitated for quite a while before finally deciding to tell Xia Lu the truth.

She’s her manager, and if she deliberately hides it, it could be troublesome if something happens in the future.

"So here’s the thing, I don’t have a place to stay right now, so I’m living with my cousin." Yan Yuan laughed.

Xia Lu saw her beating around the bush and was full of curiosity, "Your cousin? Who?!"

Yan Yuan squinted and smiled, "Bai Chenxi!"

"Ah!"

At first, Xia Lu thought she had heard it wrong, "Say it again."

Yan Yuan rolled her eyes, knowing it would be like this, "Bai Chenxi!"

Xia Lu, who was just skeptical, suddenly reacted, grabbing Yan Yuan’s arm, "The Bai Chenxi you’re talking about is our BOSS?"

Yan Yuan looked at Xia Lu’s overly excited expression and shrugged innocently, "That’s right!"

"Whoa!" Even Xia Lu, who always remained composed, couldn’t stay calm now.

Everyone assumed Yan Yuan was a newcomer without any backing, who would have guessed she had such deep connections, even having Bai Chenxi supporting her.

No wonder Su Meili’s complaints never succeeded.

Xia Lu was shocked for a while before grabbing Yan Yuan’s hand, "Now I feel relieved, your path will be much smoother from now on."

Yan Yuan smiled lightly, which was a given. Otherwise, why would she go through so much effort to befriend Bai Chenxi and work with him on big ventures?

The two of them chatted for a bit.

Then Yan Yuan left.

Xia Lu was thoroughly impressed by Yan Yuan, who could hide her relationship with Bai Chenxi so well, far better than Su Meili.

Now, if anyone bullies Yan Yuan, Xia Lu definitely won’t show any mercy.

Yan Yuan left the company, and it was already afternoon.

The sunset was beautiful.

She was truly bored, sitting by the street, thinking of her mother.

She thought of the cloud-enveloped sky of the Immortal Realm, the Goddess Palace above the white clouds, and the Divine Palace.

She wondered when she would be able to return to it.

While Yan Yuan was lost in thought, a black sedan stopped in front of her.

The car window rolled down, and Chu Chen’s face appeared, "Yueyue, what are you doing sitting here?"

"Just bored and daydreaming!" Yan Yuan rested her chin on one hand, looking like a pitiful little girl with no home.

Chu Chen opened the car door, walked to her, and gently patted her head with a smile, "Come on, I’ll take you to eat something nice."

Upon hearing this, Yan Yuan’s eyes lit up.

She had no other hobbies besides eating, just eating.

It seemed like Chu Chen knew her nature and always managed to cheer her up.

This time, Chu Chen chose seafood hot pot.

Yan Yuan loved spicy flavors the most. The combination of seafood and spiciness could make the taste of seafood even more pronounced on her taste buds.

"Yueyue, I think you should be very happy. Why do I feel like you have something heavy on your mind?" Chu Chen placed a boiled squid in Yan Yuan’s bowl.

His movements were elegant, gentle, and approachable, like a good big brother.

Yan Yuan smiled, "It’s just that you all treat me like a little kid."

In reality, she wasn’t a little kid.

Having worries was inevitable.

As she said, the heavens spare no one.

She was born a princess of the world, beneath her parents and above all others.

Her reckless behavior in the Heavens meant this catastrophe was unavoidable.

Even as Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Nine Heavens, she couldn’t fight fate.

Chu Chen couldn’t help but laugh, "Yes, yes, yes, you’re not a kid, you’re a big kid."

Yan Yuan rolled her eyes at him and continued eating, "Chu Chen, are we friends?"

Chu Chen frowned, "Why, do you not consider me a friend?"

Yan Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled, "If we’re friends, don’t treat me like a kid. I’m twenty years old, an adult."

"Hahaha!" Chu Chen’s clear and gentle voice became even more tender, "You! Hurry up and eat, then go home. Otherwise, the BOSS will give me trouble again."

He hadn’t forgotten the day he took Yan Yuan to the seaside for seafood, and when they returned, Bai Chenxi’s gaze grew colder.

Yan Yuan didn’t understand what he meant, but being focused on eating, she didn’t think much of it.

After finishing dinner, Yan Yuan felt very good and brought a pizza back.

She planned to share it with Bai Chenxi.

Yan Yuan opened the door, and the lights in the room were on. She thought Bai Chenxi had returned.

While changing her shoes, she called out, "Pizza is here."

"Pizza, ah... I like it, I want some!"

What answered Yan Yuan wasn’t Bai Chenxi, but a childlike voice.

Yan Yuan followed the voice and saw, not far from the sofa, a five or six-year-old child waving to her with big, watery eyes.
