CHAPTER 249: CHAPTER 252: ALREADY SOLVED

"So, recently I went on a business trip. Because the itinerary wasn’t convenient to disclose, and there was no signal, I just turned off my phone."

Hearing his words, Ye Xinluo finally breathed a sigh of relief. "I see, I thought something had happened!"

It seems she was overthinking.

"Mm, sorry to make you worry." If possible, Gong Shaoyu wouldn’t mind her worrying a bit about him. At least that way, it would make him feel that, in her heart, he still has a place, even if just a little...

"It’s good you’re back. By the way, what are you here in Z City for this time?"

"Yes, as I mentioned, I’m here to handle a project. By the way, has there been any movement on the Beichen Family’s side recently? How’s Jingxi’s situation?"

Gong Shaoyu had been on a business trip for a while and didn’t have time to care about Ye Xinluo. Now, besides coming to Z City for the project, another purpose was about Jingxi’s matter.

Hearing his words, Ye Xinluo smiled and said, "Jingxi’s issue has been resolved. Sorry for making you worry."

Hearing this, Gong Shaoyu was somewhat surprised and raised an eyebrow. "So fast? How was it resolved?"

Ye Xinluo lowered her gaze, pondered for a while, and then spoke, "Beichen Rui already knows I am Jingxi’s mommy."

"What did you say?"

Gong Shaoyu’s voice turned colder, somewhat disbelieving. He had only been on a business trip for a short while, how did he find out so soon?

Frowning slightly, he couldn’t quite understand.

Could it be that he didn’t erase the information properly? Impossible. He had clearly erased the information about Jingxi and Xinluo. Not to say it’s foolproof, but even if someone wanted to investigate, it would take time. How did Beichen Rui manage to figure it out?

Originally, he planned to finish dealing with his household affairs before taking her and the child abroad, but unexpectedly...

Staring at Ye Xinluo with determination, "How did he find out?"

Scanning Ye Xinluo up and down, as if to confirm something.

Ye Xinluo smiled, "He tested the DNA of me and Jingxi."

Gong Shaoyu’s eyes narrowed. No matter how much he calculated, he didn’t foresee this. It’s said that Beichen Rui is not close to women, with only a handful around him. Coupled with Ye Xinluo being by his side, it was incredibly easy for him to find out.

However, for him to deduce it was Ye Xinluo, it proves he must have seen her before.

Damn it, he fell into his trap.

"So, what did you say?"

"He wants to take back the custody of the child. Of course, I won’t agree to it..."

"What did you promise him?"

Now, he was almost sure that some kind of agreement had been reached between her and Beichen Rui.

Ye Xinluo lowered her gaze, hiding the emotions in her eyes. After a while, she finally spoke, "He gave me two options: either give up custody, or..."

Gong Shaoyu did not speak, waiting for her to continue.

"...marry him."

The atmosphere suddenly froze, and no one spoke again. Gong Shaoyu looked at Ye Xinluo, his eyes filled with hurt.

Did she just throw away her happiness like this? The Beichen Family is different from other places; it’s dangerous in there.

One could even say it’s a dragon’s den. If Ye Xinluo really enters, without a strong background, it would be difficult to stand her ground in a place like the Beichen Family.

His eyes flashed with pain. Silly girl, why are you so naive? He wanted to reach out and pat her head, but in the end, he didn’t.

"Actually, if we go to court, it’s not certain that we would lose."
