CHAPTER 30: CHAPTER 30: IF NOT 100%, AT LEAST 80 OR 90

Pfft—

The man next to Si Yuxuan, who had just taken a sip of his drink, was caught off guard by what he had just heard and accidentally sprayed the drink all over his face.

"Si Yuxuan, that’s quite a big joke," the man said, frowning.

The man speaking was called Ji Tingfeng, another close friend of Lu Jihan.

Ji Tingfeng’s grandfather was a veteran figure in Country Z, his father was a general, and his elder brother was a prominent official in the Imperial City. At a young age, he had also followed in his father’s footsteps and became a major general.

Unlike Si Yuxuan’s charming and suave nature, perhaps due to his family’s influence, Ji Tingfeng, true to his name, was ruggedly handsome and acted decisively without much expression.

Even he had such a reaction, which showed just how ridiculous Si Yuxuan’s words were.

Lu Jihan’s lips were tightly pressed together, and he didn’t speak, but a cold gleam shot from his eyes as he glanced at Si Yuxuan.

The wise adapt to the circumstances.

Si Yuxuan, not wanting to suffer, quickly explained, "I’m not joking, truly not. If you don’t believe it, look at this video yourself. It’s all over the internet, saying Lu Jinyan has an illegitimate child, and since Lu Jinyan has a son now, of course, Lu Jihan would be promoted to granduncle."

Lu Jihan was the youngest in the family, and his parents passed away not long after he was born, so he was raised by his elder brother and sister-in-law.

Although his nephew, Lu Jinyan, was only four years younger than him, the family was very particular about hierarchy, so Lu Jinyan always called him uncle.

Seeing Lu Jihan remain silent, Si Yuxuan, uncertain of his thoughts, added, "I’m not lying to you guys. The boy in the video really looks a lot like Jinyan, like they were carved from the same mold."

Hearing this, Ji Tingfeng couldn’t resist his curiosity and leaned in to take a look.

Unexpectedly, he too was stunned at first glance, "They do look quite similar."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jihan’s brow furrowed deeply.

With a cold glance, Si Yuxuan obediently handed over his phone, "Mr. Lu, please."

"Shameless!" Lu Jihan spat out, taking the phone and replaying the video.

After watching it, his face darkened as if clouds had gathered.

Indeed, the little boy in the video looked very much like Lu Jinyan!

If not 100%, then at least 80-90%!

Lu Jihan’s handsome brows knit even tighter.

Since his brother’s passing, Lu Jinyan had been raised solely by his sister-in-law, which led him to become spoiled and develop a flamboyant and unruly personality.

He remembered when Lu Jinyan was eighteen, he changed his application without telling his sister-in-law, abandoning his plan to study economics abroad to secretly study music, which angered his sister-in-law for a full three months...

Clearly, his rebelliousness was palpable.

Now, at twenty-four, the troubles he had caused were countless.

"Gotta say, this is really something Jinyan could do."

Si Yuxuan sat down next to Lu Jihan and changed the subject, "That being said, Jinhan, could that little boy be your son?"

"Impossible!" he blurted out.

"Don’t be so sure, what if..."

"No what-ifs!"

He firmly denied it.

Off to the side, Ji Tingfeng gave Si Yuxuan a disdainful look, "Isn’t that obvious?"

"Oh, look at my memory," Si Yuxuan smacked his own forehead.

Lu Jihan’s lips were tightly sealed, and he remained silent the whole time.
