Chapter 1100 Strong Backing
Chapter 1100 Strong Backing
Cheng Yunchuan felt her trembling and tightened his arms, holding her more tightly behind him. He stared at Gu Jingchen with sharp eyes, like a lion protecting his cub.
Gu Jingchen's gaze fell on Jiang Mubai, and he said affectionately: "Mubai, I missed you so much these years." His voice was low and magnetic, with a barely perceptible tremor.
Xiao Bao blinked his big eyes, looked at Cheng Yunchuan, then looked at Gu Jingchen, and asked in a baby voice: "Mom, who is he?"
Gu Jingchen's eyes fell on Xiaobao, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He was about to speak, but was interrupted by a crisp female voice.
"He's your father." A woman with delicate makeup and fashionable clothes walked in on high heels. She walked to Gu Jingchen, took his arm affectionately, and looked at Jiang Mubai provocatively, "Hello, I'm Gu Jingchen's fiancée, Sophie."
The atmosphere in the ward froze instantly, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder. Jiang Mubai felt her head buzzing, as if ten thousand bees were flying around her ears. She took a deep breath, trying to stay calm, and said to Xiaobao: "Baby, have you seen this uncle before? He is... your Uncle Gu."
Xiao Bao tilted his head and thought about it, then shook his head: "I don't remember."
Cheng Yunchuan sneered: "Mr. Gu, since you already have a fiancée, please don't disturb the lives of our family of three anymore."
Gu Jingchen seemed not to hear his words, his eyes locked on Jiang Mubai: "Mubai, I have a lot of difficulties about what happened five years ago. Can you give me a chance to explain?"
"Explain?" Jiang Mubai smiled bitterly, "Five years ago you left without saying a word, and now you suddenly appear again, saying you missed me? Gu Jingchen, what do you think of me?"
Seeing how infatuated Gu Jingchen was with Jiang Mubai, Sophie was burning with jealousy. She held Gu Jingchen's arm tightly and said tenderly, "Jingchen, let's go. Let's not waste time here."
Gu Jingchen shook her hand off and said firmly, "Fei Fei, go back first. Mu Bai and I have something to talk about."
Sophie didn't expect Gu Jingchen to reject her in front of so many people, and her face suddenly became ugly. She glared at Jiang Mubai fiercely, stomped her feet, turned around and left the ward.
Only Cheng Yunchuan, Jiang Mubai, Xiaobao and Gu Jingchen were left in the ward. The atmosphere became even more awkward and tense.
"Mu Bai..." Gu Jingchen just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Cheng Yunchuan.
"Mr. Gu, I think you should understand that Mu Bai is now my wife and Xiaobao is my son. Our family of three is very happy and we don't need your disturbance." Cheng Yunchuan's tone was cold, with unquestionable majesty.
Gu Jingchen did not give in at all: "Cheng Yunchuan, you know very well that Xiaobao is my son!"
Jiang Mubai and Xiaobao were stunned when these words came out. Xiaobao widened his eyes, looked at Cheng Yunchuan, then looked at Gu Jingchen, with a blank look on his face.
Cheng Yunchuan's face turned pale in an instant. He picked up Xiaobao and said to Jiang Mubai, "Let's go."
Jiang Mubai nodded and followed Cheng Yunchuan out of the ward.
Gu Jingchen watched them leave, his heart filled with resentment and anger. He clenched his fists, his eyes sinister, and swore in his heart: Jiang Mubai, I will definitely get you back! Even if it means anything!
On the other side, Cheng Yunchuan brought Jiang Mubai and Xiaobao back home, but the atmosphere was extremely heavy. Xiaobao seemed to have noticed something, and hugged Cheng Yunchuan's neck tightly, not daring to speak.
Jiang Mubai sat on the sofa, her face pale, her hands clasped tightly together. Cheng Yunchuan put Xiaobao next to her, sat down beside her, and gently put his arm around her shoulders.
"Mu Bai, don't worry, I'll take care of everything." His voice was gentle and firm, as if it could dispel all the uneasiness and fear in her heart.
Jiang Mubai raised her head and looked into his deep eyes, her heart filled with emotion and gratitude. She knew that no matter what happened, he would always be her strongest support.
"Yunchuan..." Jiang Mubai choked, tears blurring her vision again, "I'm scared..."
Cheng Yunchuan held her tightly in his arms, patted her back gently, and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Just then, the doorbell rang. Cheng Yunchuan got up to open the door, but saw Sophie standing outside.
Sophie held a document in her hand with a strange smile on her face: "Mr. Cheng, I think you should take a look at this."
Sophie raised the document in her hand, with a hint of provocation in her smile: "Mr. Cheng, are you sure you know your wife and Xiaobao? This paternity test report may subvert your cognition."
Cheng Yunchuan's face darkened as he took the document. He quickly glanced through it, his bony fingers turning slightly white due to the force. The conclusion on the report clearly stated: Gu Jingchen and Xiaobao are father and son.
He raised his head suddenly and stared at Sophie with a sharp gaze: "What does this mean?"
Sophie covered her mouth in surprise: "Oh, didn't Jiang Mubai tell you? Five years ago, she and Gu Jingchen..." She paused deliberately, observing Cheng Yunchuan's reaction, and then continued, "They were very close."
Cheng Yunchuan's breathing became rapid, and he felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and he could hardly breathe. He turned his head to look at Jiang Mubai, his eyes filled with complex emotions: shock, suspicion, pain, and... a hint of incredible expectation.
Jiang Mubai's face was pale, his lips were trembling, but he couldn't say a word. Xiaobao seemed to feel the solemn atmosphere, hugged Jiang Mubai's legs tightly, and looked at Cheng Yunchuan timidly.
"Mu Bai," Cheng Yunchuan's voice was low and hoarse, "Is this true?"
Jiang Mubai took a deep breath, tried to control his emotions, and slowly said: "Yunchuan, what happened five years ago was very complicated..."
"Complicated?" Cheng Yunchuan sneered, "Is there anything more complicated than this? Your son is actually another man's child!"
Jiang Mubai burst into tears: "Yunchuan, listen to my explanation..."
"Explain?" Cheng Yunchuan interrupted her, "What else is there to explain? The facts are right in front of us!" He threw the document on the coffee table with a loud bang.
Xiaobao was frightened and started crying, shouting loudly: "Dad! Mom!"
Jiang Mubai picked up Xiaobao distressedly and comforted him softly. She raised her head and looked at Cheng Yunchuan, her eyes full of pleading: "Yunchuan, five years ago, I was..." She bit her lip and said the word with difficulty, "forced. Xiaobao...was an accidental pregnancy."
Cheng Yunchuan's body froze, he looked at Jiang Mubai in disbelief, as if he was meeting her for the first time. He had always thought that Jiang Mubai left voluntarily, he had always thought that she abandoned him because she fell in love with another man.
