Chapter 375: Hiding It From Me So Hard
Faced with Murong Ling'er's silence, Chu Lingfeng felt uneasy, but apart from her, he really couldn't find another person he could trust. He couldn't let his subordinates do such an extremely private thing!
Murong Ling'er shook her head slightly and politely declined, "Master Chu, this matter is quite sensitive. Why don't you have a frank discussion with Miss Liu in person? If outsiders interfere, it will inevitably cause complications."
In fact, Liu Yuyan was obviously not the person that night, but Chu Yuting and Chu Lingfeng looked very similar. Moreover, Liu Yuyan acted extremely cautiously along the way and did not mention a word about the life experience of the mother and son. There must be something hidden.
If Chu Lingfeng took the initiative to ask, it might lead to a series of unexpected entanglements.
Chu Lingfeng didn't expect Murong Ling'er to refuse. After coming to his senses, he felt ashamed of his impulsiveness.
He thought that if Miss Murong knew about their engagement, she would probably be extremely disappointed in him.
After all, no matter from which angle he looked at it, he shouldn't have dragged Miss Murong into such a chaotic situation.
Looking at Chu Lingfeng's hurriedly fleeing back, Murong Linger sighed helplessly. She understood that Chu Lingfeng was thrown into disarray by the sudden appearance of Liu Yuyan and her son.
......
"Ling Feng, please follow me."
As soon as Chu Lingfeng escaped to the outside of Murong Ling'er's yard, he ran into Li Yunyi head-on.
Li Yunyi looked solemn, with a hint of majesty in his eyes that could not be refused.
"Uncle Li?" Chu Lingfeng looked at him doubtfully, feeling uneasy.
"Don't ask too much, just follow me." Li Yunyi turned around and left with hurried steps. Seeing this, Chu Lingfeng could only quickly catch up.
As soon as Chu Lingfeng stepped into the room, he saw Li Yunyi with a dark face, his hands behind his back, his brows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and his eyes staring at him like torches.
Chu Lingfeng's heart skipped a beat, and he felt an inexplicable sense of unease.
"Uncle Li, what happened?" Chu Lingfeng pretended to be calm and broke the silence with a smile.
In the past, Li Yunyi was always kind to him, but today's behavior was really abnormal.
Li Yunyi took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the urge to beat up Chu Lingfeng. His voice was so cold that it seemed to freeze ice: "I heard that a mother and son came to see you, and Ling'er brought them here personally. Is that true?"
Chu Lingfeng was shocked. He didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. He opened his mouth and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Li Yunyi.
"Let me ask you, what is your relationship with that mother and son?" Li Yunyi stepped forward and stared at Chu Lingfeng.
"I..." Chu Lingfeng had just uttered a word when Li Yunyi asked again.
"I also heard that the little boy called you dad, right?" Li Yunyi's voice became more severe.
"No..." Chu Lingfeng hurriedly denied, but before he could finish his words, Li Yunyi interrupted him again.
"You already have a wife and son?" Li Yunyi's face was full of anger and his eyes were full of disappointment.
"Wait..." Chu Lingfeng tried to explain, but he couldn't get a word in.
"Chu Lingfeng, how could you do this? Where do you put Ling'er and Xiaochen?" Li Yunyi was heartbroken, his voice trembling.
Chu Lingfeng was confused by this series of questions. It took him a while to react and realize that Li Yunyi had misunderstood him.
He looked at Li Yunyi helplessly and hurriedly explained: "Uncle Li, you misunderstood. Miss Murong and I are not what you think, and Xiaochen is not my son..."
"Chu Lingfeng! What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Yunyi was immediately furious when he heard this, and veins popped out on his forehead. "Xiaochen looks so much like you, and you actually said he's not your son? Do you have any conscience?"
Li Yunyi was already furious when he heard that Chu Lingfeng had another wife and children. Now that this man was lying with his eyes open, he was so angry that his whole body was shaking and his fists were clenched unconsciously.
"I didn't...what did you say...Xiaochen looks like me?" Chu Lingfeng was trying hard to explain, but when he heard this, he was suddenly stunned and asked back subconsciously.
Li Yunyi frowned even more tightly, his face full of displeasure: "Isn't this obvious? Anyone with eyes can see that Xiaochen's looks combine the best features of you and Ling'er. He is much better than the two of you."
Instantly, Chu Lingfeng froze in place, as if struck by lightning. Murong Chen's image flashed through his mind, and all the details he had previously overlooked now surfaced one by one.
He slowly turned his head, staring straight at Li Yunyi across from him, and asked word by word, "Uncle Li, are you sure Xiaochen looks like me?"
"What? Do you think I've been crazy for so many years that I've lost my judgment?"
Li Yunyi grew increasingly irritated, nearly laughing out of anger. "Let me tell you, even if I'm old and my eyesight is blurry, I wouldn't be unable to tell who my nephew resembles. What's wrong with you as a father? You don't care enough about Xiaochen!"
"So that's it... So that's it..." Chu Lingfeng muttered to himself, suddenly realizing.
No wonder I always feel like I've seen Murong Chen before when I occasionally see him, but I can't remember who he looks like. It turns out that this kid looks like me.
He felt mixed emotions, shocked at learning the truth and regretful for his past negligence.
At this time, a breeze blew, causing the candlelight in the house to sway gently.
Chu Lingfeng looked at the bright moon rising gradually outside the window, his thoughts drifting away. He knew that from this moment on, everything would be different, and the relationship between himself, Murong Ling'er, and Murong Chen would also be rewritten.
He had no idea what kind of waves the appearance of Liu Yuyan and her son would stir up in this complex web of relationships, but he knew that he had to face it all.
Chu Lingfeng figured it out, and the words Li Yunyi had said before flashed through his mind like a kaleidoscope. Those seemingly ordinary words actually contained a shocking secret.
His heart began to beat violently and uncontrollably, and an indescribable premonition came over him.
After some intense thinking, a truth that stunned him gradually surfaced. This truth was far more unbelievable than the fact that Murong Chen looked like himself.
Chu Lingfeng stood there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.
After a long while, he spoke with difficulty, his voice trembling slightly: "Uncle Li, I want to ask Miss Murong..."
Li Yunyi raised his eyes, a trace of vigilance flashing in his eyes: "What happened to my niece? You'd better tell the truth."
Chu Lingfeng's heart sank suddenly. It seemed that Miss Murong really knew his identity a long time ago.
In an instant, he felt the world spinning and the ground beneath his feet seemed to be collapsing.
It turned out that Miss Murong and her father Huo Jianjie had known everything for a long time, but had been hiding it from him silently.
If Li Yunyi hadn't let the cat out of the bag this time due to his excitement, he would probably have been kept in the dark forever.
Chu Lingfeng was filled with bitterness. Since Miss Murong had known for a long time that the two families had an engagement, why had she kept it a secret from him?
Could it be that in her heart, she is so unbearable that she doesn't even want to mention it?
Thinking of this, Chu Lingfeng felt like he was hit by a heavy hammer, full of frustration and distraught.
"Chu Lingfeng, you must explain everything to my niece today, otherwise, I will never let you go!"
Li Yunyi's face was full of anger, like an angry lion. He would never allow his niece to be teased like this. If Chu Lingfeng dared to be perfunctory today, he would really beat him up without mercy.
Chu Lingfeng's mind was in a mess at this time. He had no idea how to respond. He had no choice but to risk being beaten and hurriedly escaped from Li Yunyi's house.
