Xi Xia’s lips curled into a sneer.”Oh yeah, I have an idea. Perhaps we can get rid of Yi’s arrogance and pull the relationship between you and her closer.”
“What is it?” Lin Tianwan asked excitedly.
“This matter is of great importance. I don’t know if I should say it.” Xi Xia hesitated again.
“Tell me,” Lin Tianwan said anxiously.
Xi Xia bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before she nodded.””Alright,” he said.
“But if I tell you, uncle, can you promise me not to tell anyone that I said that?” she continued.
Lin Tianwan agreed without hesitation.”You’ve been helping me all this while. How could I possibly betray you?”
All he could think about was how to beg for Lin Yiqian’s forgiveness.
Xi Xia looked around before she leaned closer to Lin Tianwan and whispered,””Nianshen has a child. Furthermore, little Yi doesn’t know that the child is nianshen ‘s.”
“What did you say?” Lin Tianwan widened his eyes in shock.
He couldn’t believe it.
“My aunt and I only found out about it recently,” Xi Xia replied.
She didn’t look like she was lying or joking.
Lin Tianwan suddenly thought of something and asked,””The illegitimate son that was rumored on the internet?”
He opened his mouth in disbelief.
“Yes.” Xi Xia nodded.
Lin Tianwan’s face stiffened. He lowered his hands and was stunned for a while.
“Who’s the mother of the child?”
No matter what, Lin Yiqian was still his daughter. Gu nianshen’s sudden birth of an illegitimate child would definitely make him feel uncomfortable.
Another consideration was whether Gu nianshen’s child and the child’s mother would affect Lin Yiqian’s status.
Xi Xia shook her head.”I’m not sure about that yet. However, I’m guessing that he’s from a powerful background. From what I’ve heard from the children, he’s probably not short of money.”
“What are they after then?” Lin Tianwan asked worriedly.
Xi Xia whispered,”that’s why you should remind Yi to keep a low profile. After all, grandfather Gu is no longer around. Nianshen has secured his position as Mega’s CEO. No one can shake that position. Now that there’s a child, who knows if that woman will rise to power because of her child?”
Lin Tianwan was deeply touched by her words.
This was what he was most worried about.
Gu nianshen paced back and forth in front of Xi Xia. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He stopped and turned around to look at Xi Xia with a puzzled expression.”Didn’t nianshen and you …”
He wanted to say something but stopped.
However, Xi Xia knew what Lin Tianwan was going to ask.
“Who doesn’t make mistakes when they’re young? maybe it’s because they’ve had too much to drink. It’s impossible for nianshen and I to get to this point anyway. So, I’d rather the person who takes my place be little Yi.”
Lin Tianwan could not find any loopholes in his words.
Since it didn’t belong to him, he might as well help his best friend. It was better than giving it to a stranger.
Lin Tianwan looked at Xi Xia gratefully.”I know. You’re such a kind and good child.”
She raised her hand and patted Xi Xia’s shoulder.
Xi Xia pursed her lips tightly.”I hope that little Yi will be well and that nianshen will be happy. Little Yi is someone I know very well.”
She sighed helplessly.”I only hope that uncle can remember what you promised me today and not sell me out. Auntie didn’t allow me to say it.”
