Chapter 756 - 764: Not Even Sparing His Own Staff!
Alan never imagined that Jingxing would say such a thing!
At that moment, she felt like her forehead had been struck. She uncontrollably shouted, "What did you say? Chuchu’s dad is Shang Dongyuan?!"
The driver was startled and his hand on the steering wheel shook violently!
Jingxing, however, was used to it; back at home, mom frequently got frightened by dad...
So he nodded calmly, "Yeah, my older sister just told me."
"..." Alan continued to be silent.
Kids don’t lie casually, especially about their own parents!
Alan was tremendously shocked. She quickly took out her phone.
Her hands trembling badly, the phone fell several times before she finally managed to hold it. Alan hurriedly found the number she had saved for Xiao Ge and quickly dialed it.
When Chu Xiaoge received the call, she was talking about the little boy they had just met with Chuchu in the back seat of the car.
"Alan? What’s up?" Chu Xiaoge raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but tease, "We just separated, and you already miss me?"
"Xiao Ge, is Chuchu’s dad Shang Dongyuan?" Alan didn’t want to beat around the bush and came straight out with it.
"..." Chu Xiaoge was stunned by Alan’s question, and she didn’t speak for a long while.
Instinctively, she glanced to her side, where Chuchu was playing with the toy they had just brought from the ice cream shop, with a simple, happy smile on her face.
Chu Xiaoge knew that once some things started, there was no turning back.
She couldn’t hurt Chuchu anymore...
She reached out and stroked Chuchu’s head, and Chuchu quickly smiled back at her.
Such a smile seemed to give Chu Xiaoge courage.
Suddenly, she lifted the corners of her mouth, took a deep breath, and answered Alan firmly and clearly.
"Yes."
There was no way to deny it anymore.
Maybe, this was what she had always wanted to see in her heart.
But Chu Xiaoge didn’t expect Alan to figure out Shang Dongyuan so quickly...
After receiving Chu Xiaoge’s answer, Alan suddenly fell silent.
The massive amount of information was spinning in her mind, leaving even Alan feeling somewhat dizzy.
How could she have guessed that Chuchu was Shang Dongyuan’s child?
And when did Chu Xiaoge get involved with Shang Dongyuan at all?
All she knew was that Xiao Ge had once worked in the Gambling Stone City...
Shang Dongyuan, that degenerate, didn’t even spare his own employees!
On this end, Chu Xiaoge waited for a while but never heard Alan speak.
She thought that Alan must have been scared out of her wits...
Indeed, such a thing, even she herself found it highly dramatic.
No matter how much of a farce it was, it had happened, and no one could change it.
"Alan, I..." Chu Xiaoge was the first to speak, trying to ease the awkwardness.
Unexpectedly, Alan directly said, "Xiao Ge, bring Chuchu over to my house tomorrow to play? Jingxing really likes Chuchu!"
"...Alright." With no thought of refusal, Chu Xiaoge agreed immediately.
A friend she just found back, she didn’t want to lose again.
Putting down the phone, Chu Xiaoge let out a long sigh, her eyes full of complexity.
Things she avoided for five years would ultimately have to be faced one day.
Moreover, they had to be faced twice as much!
After playing for a while, Chuchu turned to see her mother looking listless. She put down her toy, moved closer to her mother, grabbed her hand, and gently shook it.
