Five years ago, Shen Ruojing awoke to find her boyfriend Chu Cichen vanished without trace after their passionate night and proposal, leaving her pregnant and disowned by the Shen Family. Now, upon learning of his return for Matriarch Chu's birthday banquet, she arrives at the Luxury Intercontinental Hotel with their son Chu Tianye. Mocked by Lin Wanru, Shen Ruotong, and socialites for her fallen status and lack of gift money, Shen Ruojing boldly claims her son as Matriarch Chu's eldest grandson.

“…”

An eerie silence instantly enveloped the people present.

All gazes then fixed on Chu Tianye in utter shock.

The little boy's delicate features and his big, captivating eyes were exactly like those of the other Chu Family young masters!

Did this child truly possess the Chu Family bloodline?

Lin Wanru hadn't noticed this boy before. Now, her eyes locked onto Chu Tianye's face, and her fists suddenly clenched tight.

The others present had never encountered Chu Cichen, so they didn't realize the child's features resembled his by 50% to 60%!

Shen Ruotong was clearly stunned too. “Shen Ruojing, what do you mean? Could it be that this little b*s…this child’s father is Young Master Mo or Young Master Yuan?”

Chu Cimo was quite the playboy.

Meanwhile, Chu Ciyuan, as an illegitimate son of the Chu Family, held a lower status.

It was entirely possible that Shen Ruojing had been involved with one of them...

Envious looks immediately appeared on the faces around her.

Though she couldn't match Miss Lin, linking up with the Chu Family would mean no one dared bully her anymore!

Before Shen Ruojing could respond, Lin Wanru cut in sharply. “Shen Ruojing, this isn't the place for talk. This issue affects the Chu Family's reputation, so you should speak directly with Matriarch Chu. Follow me, please.”

Amid everyone's stares, Lin Wanru escorted Shen Ruojing to the VIP lounge.

As Sea City's sole six-star hotel, a vast garden separated the lobby from the VIP resting area.

Though Shen Ruojing had frequented banquets before, she'd never witnessed anyone booking out the whole hotel for a celebration. The Chu Family truly reigned as Sea City's wealthiest clan.

Chu Tianye bounced along behind her. His eyes sparkled as he took in the sights. “Mommy, daddy’s family looks super rich!”

He'd checked earlier and learned this hotel belonged to the Chu Family.

Priceless plants and trees worth millions dotted the area.

Rockeries and a man-made lake valued at tens of millions stood there too!

Money's scent permeated the entire hotel. He absolutely loved it!

Noticing her son's greedy expression, Shen Ruojing's lips twitched. Recalling Matriarch Chu's own love for wealth, she sighed in resignation—like mother, like son!

With no bystanders around, Lin Wanru dropped her fake politeness and sneered, “You've clearly struggled these past years. You've even raised your son to act like a total hick!”

Chu Tianye rolled his eyes and pouted. “Mommy's had it rough lately with rising prices. It'd be way simpler if all women were like you!”

Lin Wanru blinked in confusion. “Like me?”

Chu Tianye stuck out his tongue. “A slut!”

“…”

Lin Wanru held back her anger, but her stare at Chu Tianye turned venomous like a snake's. She hissed darkly, “Throw this little bastard into the lake!”

The artificial lake linked to outer rivers, creating swift currents. A child who fell in without escaping quickly would be swept away, likely dying without a full corpse!

Without the kid, how could Shen Ruojing prove his Chu Family blood?

Lin Wanru's two loyal bodyguards sprang into action: one blocked Shen Ruojing while the other lunged for Chu Tianye.

Shen Ruojing snapped furiously, “His father is Chu Cichen—who dares lay a hand on him?!”

Lin Wanru stayed calm and sneered. “So what? Let me make it clear: Young Master Chen and I share a blissful romance. We won't let this child ruin us!”

Blissful romance…

If their engagement went through, what became of her past liaison with Chu Cichen five years ago?

Shen Ruojing replied coolly, “I want to see Chu Cichen.”

She hated mix-ups. Some things needed direct clarification.

Lin Wanru toyed with her fingers. “How could a nobody like you demand to meet Young Master Chen? And you two, stop dawdling! Drown this little b*stard now!”

Just as the guard nearly grabbed Chu Tianye, the boy nimbly slipped under his arm.

Shen Ruojing didn't rush to him but seized Lin Wanru's throat, yanking her to the lake's railing. One loose grip, and she'd plunge in.

The guards froze, abandoning Chu Tianye to charge at her.

Shen Ruojing warned steadily, “Stay back.”

Lin Wanru panicked. “Shen Ruojing, what are you doing?!”

“Have Chu Cichen come meet me.”

Lin Wanru seethed with fury, grinding her teeth. “Young Master Chen's flight is delayed—he won't show tonight and heads straight home. Give up!”

She absolutely refused to let them meet!

Right then, the Chu Family butler arrived with several guards after hearing the noise.

Hope flashed in Lin Wanru's eyes. Suddenly, she shoved Shen Ruojing hard, making herself tumble toward the lake!

“Shen Ruojing shoved me into the lake!”

“Hurry and rescue me!”

Guards leaped in, pulling Lin Wanru out swiftly. Tears welled in her red eyes. “Butler, she first claimed her son was Young Master Mo’s…but switched to Young Master Yuan, then Young Master Chen. I called out her lies, so she flew into a rage and pushed me in…”

The butler's face darkened with fury. He barked at the guards, “Seize them! They've got a death wish messing with the Chu Family!”

Lin Wanru exhaled in relief.

Once Shen Ruojing was caught, she'd dictate her fate!

She murmured to her aides, “Snap the adult's limbs and dump her. Drown the little b*stard, but stage it as an accident.”

Though whispered, Shen Ruojing read her lips clearly!

Shen Ruojing's brow furrowed. Over ten guards now encircled her.

Chu Tianye winked at her.

Daddy wouldn't come? No problem—he'd sent his sister to the airport to pick him up.

At the airport.

Chu Cichen had just deplaned and strode toward the exit.

Tall and imposing, a constant icy aura clung to him. His commanding presence, flanked by guards, kept ordinary folk at bay.

Reaching the VIP pickup, he spotted Lu Chen in a floral shirt, leash in hand for a samoyed.

Next to him stood a pretty little girl clutching a scary cloth doll, eyes glued to the dog.

Chu Xiaomeng fidgeted with her clothes.

Humans weren't her thing due to mild social anxiety—she avoided chatting with strangers.

B…but this doggy was too cuteee!

Gathering courage, she approached Lu Cheng. “Uncle, may I pet the doggy?”

Her adorable voice made refusal impossible for Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng teased, “Call me big bro first, then you can pet it.”

(Am I that old? Not even married yet!)

Chu Xiaomeng's big eyes widened.

Puzzled by the request, she relented anyway. “Uncle, can I pat big bro?”

“…”

Lu Chen stood speechless.

A chill swept in; Lu Cheng whipped around in shock. “Bro Chen, you're here at last. Listen to how this kid tricked me…”

He felt utterly duped by the girl.

Chu Cichen frowned in distaste before glancing at her.

But the little girl locked eyes on him. Moments later, delight lit her face as her clear, sweet voice cried, “Daddy! Hurry and save mommy and big brother!”
