Chapter 1098 Tongyanwuji
At this moment, the little boy suddenly spoke. He pointed at Cheng Yunchuan and asked in a baby voice, "Mom, who is he? He looks like me!"
These innocent words from a child were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples. Cheng Yunchuan's heart suddenly trembled, and he looked at the little boy with complex emotions in his eyes.
He slowly squatted down, looked at the little boy at eye level, and asked softly, "What's your name?"
"My name is...Xiaobao." The little boy answered timidly.
"Xiaobao..." Cheng Yunchuan repeated the name, feeling mixed emotions. He reached out and gently stroked Xiaobao's cheek, the soft touch softening his heart.
At this moment, Xiaobao suddenly stretched out his little hand, grabbed Cheng Yunchuan's fingers, and giggled.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at Xiaobao's innocent smile, and suddenly a strange warmth surged in his heart. Perhaps, all this was not as bad as he imagined...
Just when he was distracted, Xiaobao suddenly leaned close to his ear and whispered mysteriously: "Uncle, I actually know who my father is..."
Cheng Yunchuan's heart seemed to skip a beat. Xiaobao's words were like a bomb, exploding in his ears. He stared at Xiaobao closely, his eyes full of inquiry and doubt.
Xiaobao just blinked mischievously, and then said in a smaller voice: "Uncle, my father is a great hero, he is very powerful! He..."
Before Xiaobao could finish his words, Jiang Mubai covered his mouth and looked at Cheng Yunchuan nervously, his eyes full of pleading. "Yunchuan, don't listen to his nonsense, the child is ignorant..."
Cheng Yunchuan pulled Jiang Mubai's hand away and stared at Xiaobao with burning eyes. "Xiaobao, tell me, who is your father?"
Xiao Bao hesitated for a moment, looked at Jiang Mubai, then looked at Cheng Yunchuan, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "My father... is Ultraman!"
Cheng Yunchuan was stunned. He didn't expect to get such an answer. He looked at Xiaobao's serious expression and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He originally thought that Xiaobao would say a man's name, reveal a secret that had been hidden for many years, and turn his world upside down again. But he didn't expect that Xiaobao's father was Ultraman.
Jiang Mubai also breathed a sigh of relief. She gently stroked Xiaobao's head and said softly, "Xiaobao is so good."
The atmosphere in the ward eased a little, and Cheng Yunchuan gradually calmed down. He looked at Xiaobao, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He didn't know how to face this child, nor did he know how to face Jiang Mubai.
"Yunchuan..." Jiang Mubai spoke timidly, with a tremor in his voice, "Do you... do you still love me?"
Cheng Yunchuan did not answer, he just looked at Jiang Mubai quietly, his eyes full of pain and struggle. He loved Jiang Mubai, there was no doubt about that. However, this sudden child made him unable to let go.
"I know, I'm sorry..." Jiang Mubai's tears flowed again, "I did something wrong, I shouldn't..."
"Mu Bai," Cheng Yunchuan interrupted her, "You don't have to explain, I understand."
He understood Jiang Mubai's helplessness, her pain, and her inability to control herself. He hated that man, hated him for hurting Jiang Mubai, and hated him for destroying their happiness. However, he hated himself even more, hated himself for not protecting Jiang Mubai, and hated himself for not discovering all this earlier.
"Yunchuan..." Jiang Mubai choked and stretched out his hand to touch Cheng Yunchuan's face.
Cheng Yunchuan subconsciously dodged. He looked at Jiang Mubai with a complex expression, with love, hate, disappointment, and pain. He didn't know how to face all this, nor how to face Jiang Mubai, and even less how to face this... child who might be his son.
At this moment, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and a man walked in. He was tall, dressed in a suit, and had an extraordinary demeanor. He walked straight to Jiang Mubai, his eyes full of tenderness and pampering. "Mubai, I'm here."
When Jiang Mubai saw the man, her face turned pale instantly. She took a step back in fear and hugged Xiaobao tightly, as if to protect him from harm. "You...what are you doing here?"
The man smiled, his tone gentle but with a hint of unquestionable dominance. "I'm here to take you and the child home."
"No! I won't go back!" Jiang Mubai shook his head desperately, "I won't go back with you!"
“Mu Bai, stop messing around,” the man frowned, “You know you can’t escape.”
"I said, I'm not going back!" Jiang Mubai's voice became sharp, "Go away! I don't want to see you again!"
The man sighed, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes. He looked at Cheng Yunchuan and said calmly: "Mr. Cheng, I think we need to have a good talk."
Cheng Yunchuan looked at the man, his eyes full of vigilance and hostility. He knew that this man was Xiaobao's father and Jiang Mubai's ex-husband. He didn't know what this man wanted to do, but he knew that a storm was coming...
Cheng Yunchuan was stunned for a few seconds, then reacted and suppressed his laughter. He squatted down and looked at Xiaobao at eye level, "Are you sure he is Ultraman?"
Xiaobao nodded vigorously, pointing his little hand at the man's belt, "It glows! All Ultraman will glow!"
The man's face became even uglier, and he subconsciously tried to cover his belt, but then he seemed to remember something and put his hand down dejectedly. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "Mu Bai, I..."
"You don't have to explain." Jiang Mubai interrupted him, her voice so calm that no emotion could be heard. "Five years ago, you disappeared just like that, and now you suddenly appear again, with... this." She pointed at the red light on the man's waist, with a hint of unspeakable sarcasm in her tone.
The man opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. The departure five years ago was an eternal pain in his heart. He didn't intend to abandon Jiang Mubai and her daughter, but he had no choice. Now, he can finally come back, but he finds that everything has changed.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at the man's embarrassed look, and a sense of satisfaction rose in his heart. He coughed lightly and broke the deadlock, "Mr. Ultraman, since you are back, then explain where you have been for the past five years. Also, what's the matter with your belt?"
The man looked up and gave Cheng Yunchuan a complicated look, but finally chose to remain silent. There were some things he couldn't say, and didn't want to say.
"It seems that Mr. Ultraman has many secrets." Cheng Yunchuan said in a playful tone. He walked to Jiang Mubai and gently held her hand. "Mubai, let's go. Don't disturb Ultraman from saving the world."
Jiang Mubai didn't say anything, and let Cheng Yunchuan lead him and Xiaobao away. The man watched them leave, his fists clenched tightly, his nails digging deep into his flesh.
