Chapter 9 Mistaken For His Son
- Min Lingrui tilted his head and said with a sugary voice, “Sir, I do want a strong daddy like you, but if mommy doesn’t agree, then I have no choice.”
- Lingrui?
- Ji Fuchen frowned. “What are you talking about, Xuan?”
- Min Lingrui suddenly grinned and looked beyond adorable. “Sir, you should date my mommy! That way, I can be your son. My mommy is really pretty!”
- Ji Fuchen was speechless.
- So was Min Qing.
- With a frown, Ji Fuchen took out his phone and swiped on the screen to make a call.
- Min Qing lowered her head, wanting to leave.
- Ji Fuchen reached out to stop her. “Wait a moment.”
- Right then, the call finally connected.
- “Where are you, Yan? The mansion? Xuan is at Dorsett all by himself, and you’re at the mansion!?” Ji Fuchen raged, but that fire went out in the blink of an eye, and he hung up.
- “Sorry, I’ve been mistaken,” he said while looking at Min Qing in slight embarrassment.
- Min Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
- Ji Fuchen couldn’t help but take another look at Min Lingrui. The similarities were uncanny that even Ji Fuchen had mistaken him for his own son.
- Min Qing wanted to leave, only to be held back again.
- “Lingrui has a huge bump on the back of his head. I’ll take you both to the hospital!”
- “Thank you, but there’s no need. I can take care of this myself.”
- “It’s no trouble.”
- Ji Fuchen stood right in front of her. He would not let them pass if she didn’t take him up on his offer.
- This man is way too domineering.
- Min Qing relented. “Alright then! Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Ji.”
- Meanwhile, Shen Hongmei, Min Shan’er and the rest of the family were chased out of the hotel like a bunch of scoundrels.
- There were some problems at work, so He Anzhou left shortly after answering his phone. Having just dealt with such an embarrassing situation and getting kicked in his stomach, he wasn’t in the mood to pick up Min Shan’er’s wedding dress with her.
- “It’s all because of that b*tch, Min Qing. She ruined my wedding plans and got us into this mess.” Min Shan’er was livid.
- “Does Min Qing’s child really belong to Ji Fuchen?” Min Mucong didn’t curse at Min Qing, but a cunning look flashed across his eyes.
- Shen Hongmei turned pale. I’ve been humiliated by Ji Fuchen, and my precious Shan’er just had her plans ruined. Instead of showing us his concern, this old man is asking about the bastard child? What is he thinking? Does he want to acknowledge that bastard child as family?
- She wasn’t going to let Min Qing come back with that child and fight Shan’er over the family’s inheritance.
- “How is that possible?” Min Shan’er exclaimed in a shrill voice but controlled her emotions when Shen Hongmei cast her a disapproving glance. “Back then, Qing went to a nightclub with me even though I advised against it. After getting herself drunk, she started dancing and stripping, then some ugly geezer took an interest in her and carried her away. I wanted to stop him, but he threatened to rip my clothes off if I interfered. I was so scared,” she sobbed.
- Shen Hongmei pulled Min Shan’er into her arms and comforted her. “There, there. It’s not your fault. Your sister got herself into this mess and nearly dragged you into it.”
- Min Shan’er continued while in tears, “When Qing got pregnant, she looked so happy. I didn't dare to tell you and Dad about it because I was afraid of Qing getting hurt. I didn’t expect that Anzhou wouldn’t want her after finding out the truth, but she blamed me for stealing him, anyway.”
- “And now, Qing transformed that bastard child into a Ji Fuchen lookalike to get back at me. Dad, she wants to use Ji Fuchen against us!”
- Shen Hongmei chimed in, “Min Qing is just so wicked. Think about it, Mucong. If Min Qing was pregnant with Ji Fuchen’s child, would he let her wander aimlessly all these years? Look at how he behaved earlier. He must have mistaken that bastard child for the Ji Family’s little prince.”
- Min Mucong turned pale in anger. Believing the words of his wife and daughter, he gritted his teeth. “How wicked can she be? I should have killed her the moment she was born.”
