Those two scandals caused a huge stir, and there were many wild guesses out there—both positive and negative.
There were some that guessed that the child was Qian Xun’s stepson, and that man was her boyfriend.
There were others that insisted it was her illegitimate son.
Naturally, there were also some that guessed she had married a long time ago, and those were her husband and son.
Through the years, there had simply been too many scandals about Qian Xun. Yet, she had never once clarified anything, and just let everyone be. This time around however, she wanted to clarify things, as she truly did not want to be dragged into anything with Lu Yanzhi and his son.
As she was troubling over the scandals, another troublesome issue happened—s.h.i.+ Ze visited her father at her place.
For him to choose such a moment to drop by, there was no way Qian Xun would believe that it had nothing to do with the scandals.
Even though the scandals through the years had been relentless, they had no physical proof. As long as she stood out, all of those rumors would crumble instantly, and everything would be explained. A daughter of the Su Family had no need for any hidden help.
As such, s.h.i.+ Ze had never bothered about the scandals either.
Yet, he went over to the Sus’ place this time around. Given his character, Qian Xun could feel that the reason why he went to their place was because the scandal involved the Lu Family.
Even though her relations.h.i.+p with s.h.i.+ Ze was a cooperation, that was something her father did not know.
For the sake of appearances, she should head back home as well.
When Qian Xun reached home, Su Ya was preparing to head out. She smiled when she caught sight of Qian Xun. “Little auntie, you’re back?”
“You’re heading out?”
“That’s right! I’ve arranged to meet with Yan Zi to go shopping. Mr. s.h.i.+ is upstairs, having tea and playing chess with grandpa.” Su Ya replied as she waved to Qian Xun, preparing to leave.
“Yaya…”
Su Ya had barely taken any steps when she was called back by Qian Xun. Snapping her head back, she looked at Qian Xun in surprise. “Little auntie, is there anything?”
Qian Xun wanted to ask if Su Ya had found Rong Mo to be similar to Mo Feifei. But, when she thought about how Su Ya had someone trail her and s.h.i.+ Guang, she decided to forget it.
“Nothing much… Have fun!” Qian Xun marched upstairs.
Su Ya looked at Qian Xun’s back view for a long time, her eyes dim and dark as she turned and walked out. She was feeling uneasy in her heart—Qian Xun clearly had something to say earlier on. Why did she decide to not ask? What was it she wanted to ask? Was it because she had discovered something?
Was it related to… s.h.i.+ Guang and Mo Feifei?
There was no longer any way of stopping the relations.h.i.+p between s.h.i.+ Guang and Qian Xun from developing. Such a situation was truly uncomfortable for her to deal with. She could barely sleep or eat well, worrying day and night that something might happen to disrupt her smooth life.
Seemed like there were truly things she needed to wipe clean if she wanted to have peaceful days.
The issue was no longer small enough to be swept under the rug. If things came to it, she might have to have a change of plans.
…
Old Master Su was at the balcony on the 2nd floor with s.h.i.+ Ze, playing chess and having tea. Hearing their voices from a distance, Qian Xun slowed down.
“My daughter is both naïve and stubborn. With her brash nature, she is often too trusting of others. Please be more patient with her. She is a good child who does not remember grudges and is easy to coax.”
Hearing her father say that of her had Qian Xun feeling rather speechless. She was already in her late twenties, a mature woman. And yet, he said she was naïve and stubborn?
That wasn’t her at all!
Although, kids would always be kids in the eyes of their parents.
