Zhao Shuncheng’s face turned ghastly pale. He flapped his lips for some time before he replied to her dryly, “Yarong, did you hear it wrongly? We were not arguing just now.”

“Oh, really?” Duan Yarong cocked one of her eyebrows before she shifted her gaze and rested on Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Shuncheng’s forehead broke out in cold sweat. He kept shooting glances at Zhao Youlin. However, Zhao Youlin ignored him.

Instead, Xiao Jingyao, who had been following closely behind Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong, pushed back the glasses on the bridge of his nose before he asked teasingly, “Mr. Zhao, what happened to your eyes? Why are they looking slanted?”

Zhao Shuncheng stopped his eye movements. He turned stiff as he turned his head around to face Duan Yarong and the rest of her group. He grinned as he said, “Indeed, something is wrong with my eyes lately. This could be due to having faced the computer for long hours.”

“Staring at the computer for long hours?” A smile arched across Duan Yarong’s face. “Shuncheng, I don’t think the reason you look like that is because you have been staring at the computer for long hours. In fact, it was due to seeing something which you should not be seeing.”

“Madam, that’s not right. There are more things that shouldn’t be seen on the internet compared to others.” Xiao Jingyao played along with Duan Yarong expressionlessly.

Li, who had been quietly following them from behind thought to herself. ‘I am an innocent girl. I don’t understand what you all are talking about!’

Zhao Shuncheng was so annoyed by the two that his face turned dark. However, at the same time, he had to be wary of Zhao Shunrong. Therefore, he forcibly held himself back to not refute them. As a result, his face grew darker than thunderclouds. Even the others who noticed his expression were worried about him and were afraid that he might faint anytime if he suddenly suffered from a stroke. By then, they would have to even carry him out.

Zhao Shunrong stared at Zhao Shuncheng coolly and did not say anything. He shifted his attention to Zhao Youlin and repeated the question, “What were you guys quarreling about? Youlin, tell us what it is.”

Zhao Shunrong’s words successfully captured their attention. Zhao Shuncheng’s face turned as white as a ghost once again. There was a hint of panic and danger as he looked at Zhao Youlin. In fact, he actually felt diffident and nervous.

The corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips twitched. She smiled faintly as she said, “Actually, we were not arguing with each other.”

Zhao Shuncheng heaved a sigh of relief. The next moment, Zhao Youlin added, “Uncle is the only one who was cussing me out.”

“What?! You…” The smile on Zhao Shuncheng’s face turned stiff before his expression contorted into absolute savagery. He walked two steps forward and was about to strike Zhao Youlin again.

“Shuncheng, what are you doing?!” A cold voice with a trace of anger sent shivers down Zhao Shuncheng’s spine. His outstretched hand dangled in the mid-air.

Duan Yarong drew in a cold breath. Even though she knew Zhao Youlin was skillful and Zhao Shuncheng could not possibly harm her, she could not help but break out in cold sweat when she saw a big guy lunging at Zhao Youlin.

Duan Yarong quickly ran over to Zhao Youlin’s side and stood between them. Her face darkened as she said, “Shuncheng, what are you doing? Youlin is only a child. No matter how angry you are, as an elder, you shouldn’t lay a hand on her!”

Zhao Shuncheng’s expression turned grave. He pursed his lips and squeezed his hands that were dangling by his sides. There was a hint of sinister and chillness from the way he stared at Zhao Youlin.

Upon seeing that Zhao Shuncheng did not respond to her, Duan Yarong recalled the words that she heard when she was about to enter through the door. Her expression turned dark. She turned her head around and looked at Zhao Youlin as she asked, “Youlin, what’s going on?”

Zhao Youlin walked out from behind Duan Yarong. She met Zhao Shunrong’s sinister and chilly gaze and smiled faintly as she said, “Actually, there isn’t anything much. I wondered where Uncle learned the news from. The one saying that Tingfeng and I are about to marry. As such, he thought it was very disrespectful that we didn’t inform him, so he came over and accused me.”

Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong were stunned. They tacitly exchanged glances before Duan Yarong smiled as she said, “Oh, that’s how it is. Shuncheng, it’s our fault for not informing you about this. We have been too busy these days. Besides, you’re not working in the company. Therefore, it’s difficult to meet up with you. Moreover, Shuncheng, you couldn’t even attend my birthday banquet last time. We couldn’t reach you so we didn’t manage to inform you about the news on time. As I think about it, indeed, we have neglected you.”

Duan Yarong sounded like she was apologizing to Zhao Shuncheng. However, there was no hint of sincere apologies from her words. In fact, she had rebuked Zhao Shuncheng for not attending her birthday banquet. Otherwise, he would have long learned about this. How absurd it was for him to settle scores from the past.

Unfortunately, Zhao Shuncheng was the type who could never read a person’s face nor understood their sarcasm. Upon hearing Duan Yarong’s words, he truly thought that she was apologizing to him. Therefore, his anger slowly subsided. He became more hopeful with the purpose of his coming.

Seeing that Zhao Shuncheng’s complexion slowly recovered normalcy, a trace of disdainfulness flashed across her eyes. She added, “After all, it’s me and Rong’s fault. Shuncheng, no matter how angry you are, you should look for us instead of making a fuss at Youlin’s place.”

Since Duan Yarong had said so, Zhao Shuncheng naturally knew how to restrain himself. He faked a cough and said, “I was simply too reckless. Shunrong, Yarong, I know you’ve been very busy. Since you’ve said so, there’s nothing much I could say either. I heard that you have found your long lost son, right?”

Duan Yarong and the rest of her group froze upon hearing that Zhao Shunrong had taken the initiative to bring up Han Yichen. Duan Yarong’s eyes flicked with some emotions but they quickly diminished after a while. She said faintly, “Yes, that’s right. Chen is Rong and my son. He was wrongfully taken away from us and was in exile outside for more than two decades. Thankfully, God has shown us his mercy and we have found him. We planned to introduce him to you during my birthday banquet. Unfortunately, you missed it due to some issues.”

The underlying meaning in Duan Yarong’s words was that it was clear she had invited him to her birthday banquet. However, Zhao Shunrong failed to make it there and had thus missed so much important information. How dare he still put the blame on them now?!

Zhao Shuncheng was rendered speechless. However, he soon recovered his senses. He shifted his gaze and put a smile on his face as he said happily, “All these years, I thought that you both didn’t have a child, and we thought that… I never thought you would have a son who is all grown up! It’s truly a blessing for you!”

Duan Yarong remained quiet upon hearing Zhao Shuncheng’s flattering words.

When Zhao Shuncheng saw this, he hesitated for some time.. The next moment, he carefully blurted out the words, “Shunrong and Yarong, since you guys have already recovered your own son, don’t you think you should return Youlin to me?”
