Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 20: Have You Thought About the Father of the Child?
Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Have You Thought About the Father of the Child?
She certainly doesn't want to see her godson crying; it would make her distressed.
She's still thinking about how to please the little guy; she definitely can't offend him.
What if one day the little guy complains about her in front of Xinluo?
Lying in bed, no one spoke, just quietly staring at the ceiling.
After a while, Lan Shan seemed to think of something, turned around, and lay on her stomach, looking at Ye Xinluo.
"What's wrong?"
Startled by her sudden movement, she was a bit scared, thinking something might have happened.
"Xinluo, can I ask you a question?"
"What is it?"
Seeing her serious expression, Ye Xinluo also became nervous, "Did something happen..."
Before Ye Xinluo could finish her sentence, Lan Shan interrupted her.
"Have you ever thought about who the little guy's father is?"
Not immediately grasping the meaning of her words, "What did you say?"
"Have you ever thought about who Jingxi's biological father is?"
The tone had softened considerably compared to before, ensuring she could clearly hear what she was saying.
It took a while for Ye Xinluo to come back to her senses and she smiled slightly at Lan Shan.
"No."
Honestly, it's a question she had never thought about.
She didn't dare to think about this question.
Because deep down in her heart, there was always some unease, always feeling that one day that man would know about the little guy's existence.
Afraid to face this fact, she chose selective avoidance. If Lan Shan hadn't brought it up, Ye Xinluo might have forgotten about this person's existence.
This man, who has a blood connection with the little guy but never met him.
"Haven't you ever thought about it?"
"No."
No, she never has.
"What if he shows up one day?"
Lan Shan's words were like a bomb, exploding in Ye Xinluo's once peaceful heart.
Yes, what if one day that man shows up? What should she do?
"Looking at the current situation, that man certainly doesn't know about Jingxi's existence, otherwise he couldn't have not shown up up until now.
You were in America before, maybe that man couldn't do much to you then, but now it's different, you've brought the little guy back, you have to think about this problem.
Perhaps he is from Z City."
Could he be from Z City?
Considering what happened back then, perhaps that man is really from Z City.
"Xinluo, do you really not remember what he looks like?"
Ye Xinluo shook her head.
Despite racking her brains, she couldn't recall any meaningful clues.
She only vaguely remembers he was tall, and his facial expression was very cold. She knows nothing else.
Lan Shan frowned deeply, this is the most troubling part; if they knew what he looked like, they might be able to guard against him a bit more. The problem is right here, Xinluo simply doesn't remember what he looks like.
If he were from out of town, it'd be easier to say, but if he's from Z City, Xinluo staying here with Jingxi, they will be discovered sooner or later.
He remains in the shadows while we are in the light. This is an especially tricky problem.
"Maybe you should try hard to think, see if there's any clue."
"It's no use, I can't clearly remember what he looks like."
If she could remember his face, she wouldn't be so nervous.
"What should be done then? If they discover Jingxi, they might come looking for you, what will you do?"
This is exactly what Lan Shan is worried about and what Ye Xinluo has always been afraid to face.
She is also very afraid of that day coming.
If they really took Jingxi away from her, she would feel worse than death.
"I won't let him take Jingxi away."
Jingxi is her baby, whom she carried for ten months and gave birth to, and she will not allow anyone to take him away from her.
She instinctively clenched her fists, her eyes reflecting a firm light.
If that day really comes, unless she's dead, otherwise, don't even think about taking her child away.
Watching her determined expression, Lan Shan felt a strong emotional response inside. She reached out to hold Ye Xinluo's hand.
"Rest assured, no matter what the future holds, I'll be there with you."
"Thank you." Ye Xinluo sincerely thanked her. To have a confidant in life is to die without regrets.
Ye Xinluo didn't say this, otherwise, this silly girl would become over the moon again.
"Xinluo, I've been wanting to tell you something."
"Go ahead."
Reading between the lines, Ye Xinluo frowned slightly.
"What if one day you meet that man, you don't recognize him, but he recognizes you, then what?"
"Shut your crow's mouth."
Ye Xinluo rolled her eyes at her.
She had never thought about this question.
Nor would she even think about it. If that day really comes, she'll just have to play it by ear.
Lan Shan wisely shut her mouth, but her mind was still dwelling on this issue.
Actually, what she wanted to say was, if that man recognized Xinluo, but Xinluo was unaware, it would be easy to expose the little guy.
She always felt that the little guy looked familiar, as if she had seen him more than once. Yet she can't remember where exactly she'd seen him.
Perhaps it's because that man and Jingxi never appeared in the same frame, so she can't figure it out.
Oh well, why think about it so much, when in the world are there such coincidences anyway?
The two lay in bed and chatted for quite some time until Ye Xinluo began to feel sleepy, said goodnight to Lan Shan, and then returned to her room.
She took her change of clothes for a shower, and after bathing, blew her hair with a hairdryer.
But she was just too sleepy; she didn't even dry her hair completely before heading to bed.
Early the next morning, Ye Xinluo was awakened by the sound of the little guy getting out of bed.
When she opened her eyes, she saw the little guy tiptoeing to the bathroom.
Seeing Ye Xinluo awake, Jingxi flashed her a sweet smile.
"Mommy, did I wake you up?"

"No."
She picked up her phone and took a look. It was just after five in the morning, why did the little guy wake up so early?
"Jingxi, it's not even six yet, go back to sleep. At seven, Mommy will make you breakfast."
She thought perhaps the little guy couldn't sleep anymore and wanted to get up.
"Mommy, I just need to pee."
Saying this, he clamped his legs together, holding himself there. Before Ye Xinluo could speak again, he darted off to the bathroom.
Ye Xinluo looked at the tightly closed door, smiled, and ignored the little guy, lying down to continue sleeping.
At seven on the dot, the alarm clock rang.
Ye Xinluo reached out, fumbling toward the bedside table.
It took her quite a while to find her phone, and she promptly turned off the alarm.
She opened her sleepy eyes and took a glance outside the window. It was so dark outside that she couldn't see anything.
Lounging in bed for a while longer, until the alarm rang once more, she reluctantly threw off the covers and went to the bathroom.
After washing up, she came out of the bathroom.
Maybe it was the air conditioning, but the room was quite warm. The little guy had kicked the blankets to the side, his chubby little legs exposed to the air.
She walked to the side of the bed, tucked the little guy in, then moved to the other side, picked up the phone from the bedside table, and left the bedroom.
Entering the living room, she glanced at the adjacent room, which was dark and silent, suggesting its occupant was still asleep.
