Chapter 124: Unt.i.tled
So that meant he had not deliberately forgotten about her? Cheng Anya was weirdly happy as that thought flashed past her.
Ye Chen had always been observing Cheng Anya’s expressions. Seeing Anya surprised left him more certain that they had known each other before. She was clearly feigning something. Ye Chen, who had no problem dominating the negotiating table, had no problem getting Anya to speak.
In Ning Ning words, ‘Although Mommy is scheming, she is still far from his daddy.’
“I am not deliberately forgetting anybody. Around the year Ning Ning was born, I lost my memory,” Ye Chen replied deeply. “Miss Cheng, your reasoning is not substantial enough. All I want to know is whether Ning Ning is my son.”
He knew that Ning Ning was his son.
However, Ning Ning would only acknowledge him on the condition that Cheng Anya acknowledged him as Ning Ning’s father. By hook or by crook, he had to gain Cheng Anya’s recognition!
“I just want to hear him call me daddy!” Ye Chen replied in a low voice as he unwound a knot in his throat. With a few hints of uneasiness in his voice, he asked, “Aren’t you even able to fulfill such a simple request?”
Cheng Anya felt a choke in her chest and unhappiness welling up in her. Ye Chen’s words had left her extremely upset!
It seemed as though she had recalled a much younger Ning Ning nursing his bruise and asking her why he had no father. Like then, it was as if her heart was stabbed with a knife.
She struggled violently in her heart. She knew that Ye Chen had been lonely for too long and overly craved kins.h.i.+p. It was perfectly understandable for him to want to acknowledge Ning Ning!
However…
Third Young Master Ye was not the most earnest person. One could not go hard but go easy on him. However, when Ye Chen made his request in such a sad and antic.i.p.ating tone…
Cheng Anya was still moved!
“Miss Cheng!” Ye Chen shouted as he looked at her antic.i.p.atively. There was a pure urgency in his gaze, and he would lose all hope should she deny!
‘Please do not look at me in this way, could you?’
“He is my son!” Cheng Anya said after deliberating for a long while.
“n.o.body will deny it!” Ye Chen said in a deep tone. “However, this will not impede the truth that he is still my son, no?”
Cheng Anya looked up at him. Third Young Master Ye’s gaze was solemn and her face was reflected in his beady eyes. Cheng Anya did not know whether to continue denying. Had this been the typically cold and brutal Ye Chen, she could deny until the end.
It was such a pity that this scheming and sinister person played the emotional card and evoked a sense of pity in her.
She knew that he was feigning it, yet she could not help but feel her heart ache for him.
Cheng Anya, you idiot!
“Forget it!” She murmured to herself and took a deep breath. Denying further was meaningless, and he only had to do a paternity test given how advanced technology was. The result of the paternity test was irrefutable proof that she could not deny.
“Yes… He is your son!” Cheng Anya said calmly. “I will not allow you to take him away from me!” She urgently added.
Ye Chen bit his lip and smiled. ‘You have finally admitted! How perfect!’
His smile was a little cryptic!
Cheng Anya suddenly realized what had happened and was so angry to the point she wanted to hit him to stop his smile. If he had already known, why did he still force her for an answer?
“You already knew?” Cheng Anya asked solemnly.
Ye Chen smiled in elegant happiness. He made Anya so angry that she gritted her teeth. “Did I say that I did not know? Miss Cheng, I just wanted you to admit it!”
The tables turned and it was now his turn to anger her. Third Young Master Ye’s temperament was good and was all happy. His previous anger at her suddenly disappeared and one could feel the suns.h.i.+ne entering his life.
He could finally hear his son call him daddy.
As much as being a father at the age of twenty-seven was early, Ye Chen was, however, unfazed by it. Not only was he unfazed, but he was also very thankful to Anya for bearing him such a tough and able son. Nevertheless, he would not tell Anya how he felt.
The young kid who listened on finally understood why he had such awesome genes!
It was really not because of some genetic mutation!
It was because both his daddy and mommy were… very distorted people.
Cheng Anya gritted her teeth and contemplated throwing a knife at him as target practice had she had one. “Why?”
“Our son said that he will acknowledge me only when you have acknowledged me!” Ye Chen smiled in his reply.
Cheng Anya’s eyes twitched and could not help but become secretly unhappy. This man sure changed his words quickly. Son? He sure became a daddy at minimal cost as he did nothing apart from knocking her up.
Since she had acknowledged it, so be it.
Ye Chen suddenly leaned forward and his erect body almost covered her. His both hands pressed on Cheng Anya’s sides as he trapped her between him and the wall. With his warm scent lingering around her nose, Cheng Anya had nowhere to escape.
“Miss Cheng, what exactly happened seven years ago?” Ye Chen asked in a deep voice. Now that he knew that that child was his son, he wanted to know how he had that son. Was he born out of love or…
Ye Chen had numerous women, but he knew that Cheng Anya was not someone who could be easily bedded.
His suddenly larger face made Cheng Anya nervous. As his scent surrounded her and engulfed her, she had nowhere to escape. However she squirmed and avoided him, she could not avoid his scent.
She could count his eyelashes as his delicate features were up close. One, two… Her panicky self was reflected in his deep gaze.
Cheng Anya was unable to respond! This man was a femme fatale when he deliberately exhibited his charm. No women could stay unmoved by his charm, including her! She secretly scolded herself for being so thirsty. However…
Such an intimate pose was embarra.s.sing. She could not help but recall what happened that steamy night and blushed.
Her pale face, and even her ears, turned slightly red.
She only had Ye Chen as her partner throughout her life. He was the only person who could be this intimate with her. Ye Chen was a veteran player. Cheng Anya could not possibly stand up to his advances.
As their hearts pounded, the two closed. Ye Chen could clearly hear her pounding heart.
Such a raw reaction from her left Ye Chen satisfied. He broke into a charming smile as his mood lifted.
“Miss Cheng, why are you entertaining such impure thoughts? You are blus.h.i.+ng!” Ye Chen teased as he gently ran his fingers across her head. Her skin was very pale and tender, and he enjoyed the touch beneath his fingertips. He was too eager to carry on.
He could smell her scent from this up close. It was a gentle scent that was mesmerizing.
What teasing!
What blatant teasing!
Cheng Anya wanted to struggle free from him, but Ye Chen quickly pinned her down and warned her, “Miss Cheng, do you want to undergo another surgery?”
She was stunned into silence!
F***!
‘You dare bully a crippled person!’
“President Ye, did you just mention that all you wanted to know was whether he was your son?”
“I regret!”
