Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Chapter 288

Li Jinyuan soon let go of Zhong Yuhuan. Zhong Yuhuan pursed her lips and grabbed Li Jinyuan back. Whats actually going on? You didnt explain clearly on the phone and when I called brother Wei, he didnt have any idea either. Just what are you hiding from me?

Zhong Yuhuans eyebrows anxiously furrowed.

Li Jinyuans face was undoubtedly 10 out of 10 in terms of appearance. He slightly lowered his eyelids and used a soft gaze to look at Zhong Yuhuan, his gentle expression mixed with a bit of unwillingness and struggle.

If his fans saw him like this, they definitely wouldnt be able to reject him, no matter how outrageous his demands may be.

But Zhong Yuhuan wasnt one of his fans.

Zhong Yuhuan quickly calmed down. Did you take drugs? Or kill someone? Just what unsolvable thing made you say something like that? Hm? Li Jinyuan?

Li Jinyuans calm facade cracked a bit.

Zhong Yuhuan stared at his face, without missing a single detail. Seeing his expression change, Zhong Yuhuan instantly realized, Oh, I mustve guessed wrong. It probably means that its not something that would endanger your life or send you to jail. But something that will make you say that you will be leaving me Mm A thought gradually formed in Zhong Yuhuans head.

Li Jinyuan saw what direction her thoughts were heading in, so he immediately spoke, continuing his previous words, No, someone came looking for me.

Zhong Yuhuan tilted her head. Mhm, and then?

Li Jinyuan helplessly smiled.

Seeing that his tricks wouldnt work anymore, he quickly gave up, not bothering to hide anything. The person said that he is my biological fathers assistant.

As expected!

Zhong Yuhuan had pretty much guessed this possibility but didnt dare believe that there could be such a coincidence.

Does he have any tangible evidence? And how did he find you? Zhong Yuhuans tone couldnt help but become a bit unhappy. No one has come to find you for so many years, but someone comes to find you now?

What kind of father would do this?

Theres nothing tangible, but there is some evidence. He told me some of the things from when I was little. Although I was young back then, my memory isnt that bad. I can still remember a few vague details. Everything he said matched up. Li Jinyuan paused, then said, His excuse was that hes been trying to find me for a long time to no avail. Coincidentally, theres been quite a lot of news about me online, and from the rumor that Im from an orphanage, he guessed that I could be his bosss child. So, he came looking for me.

Zhong Yuhuan frowned. Did he say anything else?

Li Jinyuan looked at her, slightly absent-minded.

She was extremely serious.

A slight furrow appeared between her eyebrows, her lips tugging downwards, and her beautiful visage filled with worries for him.

Although his tricks didnt turn out the way he wanted them to, this was what he really wanted all along.

Her caring about him, noticing him.

Li Jinyuan? Zhong Yuhuan didnt hear his response after ages, so she couldnt help but lift her head and call his name.

Oh, he did say something else Li Jinyuan smiled. To make an appointment to do a paternity test.

When Zhong Yuhuan heard those words, her anger immediately erupted.

Although she knew that it was safer to do the paternity test first, yet when a father disappears for so many years without any news, the child can only grow up in an orphanage. According to the original plot, Li Jinyuan wouldve stayed in the orphanage for even longer if he hadnt met her.

But now, because they saw the news, they came to find him. Theyre not even that polite, asking for a paternity test the moment they open their mouths. The deep sense of disrespect made Zhong Yuhuan extremely uncomfortable.

Whens the appointment? Zhong Yuhuan asked in a cold voice.

Li Jinyuan swept his gaze over her face. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, her expression fierce and cold. But her appearance was so good that no matter what expression she had, she wouldnt seem threatening at all. On the contrary, as of right then she seemed indescribably pretty and cute.

Li Jinyuan couldnt help but show a slight smile, saying, Tomorrow morning. Im going over the moment we return to Haishi.

Zhong Yuhuan rolled her eyes at him unhappily.

Smiling.

You had such a sad expression a few moments ago, but now youre smiling?!

Why are you so stupid?

Doing whatever that person tells you to do!

Im going with you tomorrow, Zhong Yuhuan said in an irrefutable tone.

Li Jinyuan nodded. Sure. As he spoke, his eyes curved into crescents, like the cat that got the cream.

Then have you had dinner? Zhong Yuhuan asked again.

But before Li Jinyuan could answer

Bang, bang, bang.

Huo Chengming had come in at some unknown time. He bent his fingers and knocked on the wall with a dark expression to draw their attention.

Zhong Yuhuan turned to see Huo Chengming holding a small tray with a thermos box packed with food.

Huo Chengming coldly said, Leftovers that we saved for you.

Li Jinyuan smiled and took the tray. The two mens gazes met without much humor.

They were clear about what schemes and plans the other had.

Zhong Yuhuan hurriedly smiled and shook her head. Theyre not leftovers all fresh. You should go eat first. Well talk more tomorrow.

Li Jinyuan could only swallow the words he was about to say.

He knew it. Huo Chengming didnt deliver the food with any good intentions.

Li Jinyuan soon let go of Zhong Yuhuan. Zhong Yuhuan pursed her lips and grabbed Li Jinyuan back. Whats actually going on? You didnt explain clearly on the phone and when I called brother Wei, he didnt have any idea either. Just what are you hiding from me?
