In the Office.
Chu Yichen was in a discussion with Long Ting about the company’s new products. Tired out, he leaned back on the sofa to rest. There had been a lot of work recently and he was somewhat exhausted.
Long Ting held the remote control and casually watched television. Actually, there was nothing much to watch. He was just bored and killing time. Especially when he was with Chu Yichen, who was a workaholic. The pressure was great and one depended on a little entertainment just so one could continue the torturous grind.
He came across a local help program. Long Ting stopped flicking channels. The image of a cute baby flashed across the screen.
He hurriedly flicked back.
In the end, he was disappointed and smiled bitterly. He thought it was that little fellow Li Baobao, but it turned out that it wasn’t. Speaking of which, he missed that cute little fellow a little!
He continued channel surfing.
Suddenly, a beautiful little boy caught his attention. The scene showed a crowd surrounding three children, two men and a woman. However, one of the little boys and the little girl had their heads lowered as they spoke. The camera did not capture their faces, so the little boy who raised his head was especially eye-catching.
“Chu Yichen, look, look…” Long Ting stuttered. F*ck, was he seeing things? That boy with a sullen expression was a replica of his cousin. He had long and narrow eyes, a tall nose, and a stone face. His expression…
He froze.
Chu Yichen, who was leaning on the sofa, did not respond to his shout. He was already used to Long Ting’s constant expressions of surprise.
Long Ting panicked and ran up to him. He boldly pushed the man. “Look at that little boy. He looks exactly like you. Is he your illegitimate son? Which woman did you father him with?” After saying that, he muttered to himself, “It couldn’t have been a result of some one-nighter surely. Open your eyes and take a look. The Chu family doesn’t allow illegitimate children to wander the streets!”
Chu Yichen opened his eyes in annoyance. Long Ting stopped upon noticing the man’s sharp and dangerous gaze.
He pointed at the television. “That child is like a replica of you. If you don’t believe me, look.”
Chu Yichen glanced at him dangerously. He hated being disturbed when he was resting, so he was very angry and wondered about punishing the man.
Long Ting boldly turned the man’s face in the direction of the television. “Look, isn’t it? Confirm if it’s your illegitimate child.”
Chu Yichen was infuriated. He looked at the television. The images of the three children flashed past and then the camera fell on the face of a fat boy holding a lollipop, with snot running down his nose. It looked like the boy had just learned how to walk.
The man narrowed his eyes and raised his head. He walloped the back of Long Ting’s head. “I think he’s more like your son. He’s sniffling just like you did when you were young! And gluttonous!”
Long Ting wanted to retort, but he was stunned when he saw the image. “No, not this one. That other boy just now looks just like you!”
Long Ting wished he could go to the television station and get someone to replay it. What was going on? This boy was not cute at all and they put him on air.
He had been beaten up for nothing. “Give me a moment. I’ll get the television station to send the recording of this show over immediately. You’ll be shocked when you see it.”
Long Ting was prepared to do it. That television station was not under their banner, but they were the huge sponsors of advertising. Such a small matter could be resolved with a phone call.
Chu Yichen saw that he was serious and did not look like he was joking, so he simmered down. “That’s not necessary. There are many similar people in this world. There is nothing to be surprised about. Besides, do you really think I’d have an illegitimate child? Would the Chu family let the child wander on the streets?”
Long Ting persisted even though it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. “No, I think something’s amiss.”
Chu Yichen no longer cared about his unreliable speculations. He put on his suit and walked out. “There’s a meeting starting. Come with me. If you feel bored, I can give you more things to do. Stop daydreaming!”
Long Ting was in shock. He rubbed his nose. Was he really seeing things?
However, since his cousin was so certain, it might have been a mistake..
