The Villain and the Cannon Fodder’s Mother

Chapter 172 – There was no good answer to this question (2)

With the work relationship between Yuan Yao Media and Shengshi Entertainment, logic would dictate that they shouldn’t have tried to backstab Shengshi…

But, combining this with the previous news about Zhang Xiying being switched out, then President Yao Yimeng’s daughter would be the only one who could be tied to both incidents.

Lin Yiyi said in surprise, “This was planned by Yuan Yao?”

These particular news all surrounded Meng Yan, the most popular film emperor, Zhang Xiying, the actress who had been getting a lot of attention as of late, Shengshi Entertainment, the company who was a big player in the entertainment circle, along with herself, being both Meng Yan’s ex-wife and also a movie investor…

Everybody stood to lose something except that Yuan Yao had been cleared.

More importantly, Yao Yimeng was very well-known now! All the audience saw was the innocent Yao Yimeng.

“Yuan Yao will never admit to it.”

Lu Xun sneered, “I have already had someone looking for that ‘Brother Spill’. He’s the key to us finding out the truth.”

CEO Lu’s character setting, at this point in time, was pretty resolute and decisive.

If only he could maintain this character setting, he was actually quite attractive.

That was what was going through Lin Yiyi’s mind at this moment in time.

“Oh, by the way!” Lu Xun put a stop to the talk of all these messy annoyances. Looking at Lin Yiyi all of a sudden, with his eyes beaming, he asked, “My nephew asked if we are dating.”

Lin Yiyi: “……”

“We are, aren’t we?”

“……”

You couldn’t just maintain that attractive character setting for a few minutes longer?!

Lu Xun carried on with no self-awareness whatsoever. “I told him that we are.”

“We are not.”

Lu Xun turned pale. He felt a sense of unjust immediately.

“Why?”

“No reason.” Lin Yiyi turned away and stopped looking at him.

No professing of his fondness for her, no flowers, no pursuing, and he called that chasing?

Not a chance in h*ll!

Well, with the exception of the flowers from last time. Then, there’s that disturbing nephew of his…

Even though Lin Yiyi had always been telling herself that things in the future could very well be different now that she was here, she also couldn’t guarantee that the future would be different just because she was here.

Lin Yiyi tilted her head and looked at Lu Xun, who seemed as if he was waiting for his death sentence to be announced.

She said, “I have a question for you…”

Lu Xun was revived with full health and became lively all of a sudden. “Yes?”

“Has it ever occurred to you what would happen to your nephew when you are in a relationship and get married in the future?”

Lu Xun, “……”

He was shocked speechless all of a sudden.

That was not a question that he was prepared for. No matter what he said about that little expressionless face at home, Lu Mingzhe was his nephew, his real nephew, after all.

He was there when Lu Mingzhe was born. He had watched him grow up. Ever since his brother and his sister-in-law were gone, it was always just the two of them.

What Lin Yiyi had just asked him had never crossed his mind. He had never considered being apart from Lu Mingzhe.

He stood there, stunned.

He thought about her question over and over again, trying to figure out the nature of her question.

Lin Yiyi wasn’t expecting an answer from Lu Xun. She didn’t think he’d be the kind of person who’d abandon his nephew. He was such an affectionate person.

There was no good answer to this question. Let it be Lu Xun or Lin Yiyi, neither one of them could do anything that would harm a child.

After he had gone home, Lu Xun saw his expressionless nephew.

He casted him a glance and felt even more resentful all of a sudden.

“Burden!” said Lu Xun. Then, before his nephew could even react to that, he ran upstairs while holding his hand over his delicate heart.

He finally discovered the biggest strength of his nephew… That would be his self-awareness!

Lu Mingzhe, who has been labeled a “burden”, “??????”
