Chapter 99 How to Win Over Your Husband's Nemesis (34)

"Yes, what's wrong?" Cheng's mother asked.

Cheng Yin said, "I happen to be free today, so why don't I go with you?"

Mother Cheng's eyes widened in surprise: "Oh my, has the sun risen in the west today? You actually want to come with me to the banquet?"

Cheng Yin sat on the sofa and said without changing his expression, "It's just that I happened to have nothing to do today, and I saw that you went alone."

He added, "If you don't need me to accompany you, then forget it."

"Who said I don't need to? Of course it would be great if you could come with me."

It was rare for her son to be so proactive, and Cheng's mother was overjoyed. Without much thought, she immediately agreed.

When the mother and son appeared together at the banquet, Gu Zhaoting found it strange: "President Cheng actually came today too."

Cheng Yin raised an eyebrow: "Of course I'll be attending Aunt Gu's birthday party."

"Yes," Cheng's mother nodded. "Cheng Yin happened to be home today, and as soon as he heard that I was coming to the Gu family's banquet, he immediately said he would come with me."

Mother Gu was naturally pleased to hear this, after all, it was her birthday banquet, and the more guests who came, the more prestigious the Gu family would be.

Seeing that Gu Zhaoting seemed about to say something, she was afraid of causing any unpleasantness between them, so she quickly smiled and said, "I watched Cheng Yin grow up. You and our Zhaoting were old classmates when you were little. Of course, I welcome you to my birthday party today."

As she spoke, she gave Gu Zhaoting a look, signaling him not to say anything he shouldn't.

Cheng Yin maintained a polite and respectful demeanor throughout. He had a gift brought up—a pearl necklace—which Gu's mother liked very much. She exchanged pleasantries with Gu and her son.

Although Gu Zhaoting didn't say anything more, he still glanced at Cheng Yin warily, inexplicably feeling that Cheng Yin had come with ill intentions today.

While the elders were exchanging pleasantries, Cheng Yin exchanged a glance with Qi Ning, who was standing next to Gu's mother.

Those attending the banquet today are all prominent figures in Beijing. The banquet hall is filled with a faint fragrance, and melodious music echoes in the air.

As the banquet drew near, guests arrived one after another. They greeted each other with smiles, sharing their recent situations and the latest news, and gathered together to discuss a range of business topics.

The so-called birthday banquet, besides celebrating Gu's mother's birthday, was mainly to gather these people together to facilitate mutual understanding and expand their social networks. That was their main purpose in coming here.

During the banquet, the atmosphere was very lively as everyone toasted and exchanged drinks.

Secretary Gao came to Gu Zhaoting's side and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Gu, I have brought Miss Ye and the young master over. They are in the lounge now."

Gu Zhaoting nodded slightly.

The reason he brought Yangyang to meet his parents today was because he knew they were eager to have a grandson, especially since he had just celebrated his birthday.

After the birthday party, there is a quiet moment after the excitement, a time when people feel empty inside, which is the perfect time for what they want most to appear.

He instructed them, "Make sure they stay in the lounge and don't wander around. Also, make sure they have some food and take good care of them."

"Yes, I understand."

Secretary Gao responded and was about to go to the lounge.

At that moment, Gu Zhaoting and Secretary Gao suddenly heard a commotion in the crowd.

They looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the projector in the center of the banquet hall, which had not been used before, had been turned on at some point, and a video was appearing on the big screen.

The video begins with surveillance footage showing Gu Zhaoting interacting intimately with a mother and son, going out to eat together, and visiting amusement parks, among other places. The woman in the footage is clearly not Gu Zhaoting's wife, Qi Ning.

Next, the video showed a comparison photo of Gu Zhaoting and a child. The two looked almost identical, like father and son.

Finally, the screen showed a paternity test report, which clearly stated the names of Gu Zhaoting and a child, and the results clearly indicated a father-son relationship.

When the image froze on the paternity test report, the banquet hall was in chaos. Everyone was whispering among themselves, their gossipy and curious eyes darting between the Gu and Qi families.

Mr. and Mrs. Gu stared blankly at the big screen, while Qi Ning's father, Qi Rongchang, and Mrs. Qi had already stood up.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, what exactly is going on?" Qi Rongchang demanded sternly.

"Yes, is this paternity test report real? Does Gu Zhaoting really have such a big illegitimate child?" Mrs. Qi's face was also particularly ugly.

Mr. and Mrs. Gu looked at each other, they didn't know about this either.

Mr. Gu quickly stood up to calm them down: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, please don't get agitated. We don't know the details of this matter either. We'll have to ask Zhaoting to find out. It must be a misunderstanding."

As he spoke, he ordered the people around him, "Where is Gu Zhaoting? Go and fetch him here right now!"

"Yes."

The man hurriedly went to find Gu Zhaoting.

Gu Zhaoting was stunned when he saw this scene. Immediately, he guessed that it was Qi Ning who was behind it.

After all, only Qi Ning knew that he had a child outside, and no one else knew about it.

This was not what he had planned; he hadn't intended to reveal the truth about Ye Yunyi and Yangyang in front of so many people.

The man Gu's father had instructed saw Gu Zhaoting and quickly ran towards him: "The master wants to see you."

With a stern face, Gu Zhaoting whispered to his secretary, Gao, beside him, "Go to the lounge quickly and secretly send the mother and child away."

At this time, it is inconvenient for Ye Yunyi and her son to meet with his parents again.

"Okay, Mr. Gu," Secretary Gao replied, and hurriedly ran towards the lounge when no one was looking.

After seeing Secretary Gao leave, Gu Zhaoting walked towards his parents and the elders of the Qi family.

Upon seeing Gu Zhaoting approach, Gu's mother grabbed him and said, "Zhaoting, is this true or false? Tell me quickly!"

Qi Ning sat silently in her seat. Gu Zhaoting glanced at her before speaking, "Mom and Dad, I'll explain this to you later. Let's stabilize the situation first."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of reporters rushed in through the entrance of the banquet hall, carrying cameras and microphones, and headed towards Gu Zhaoting and his group.

In the blink of an eye, the cameras and microphones were in front of Gu Zhaoting.

"Mr. Gu, I've heard that you have a three-year-old illegitimate child. Is that true?"

"Mr. Gu, may I ask whether this illegitimate child was conceived before or after your marriage?"

"Mr. Gu, what do you have to say about your affair and having an illegitimate child?"

……

Besides asking Gu Zhaoting, some people also asked Qi Ning.

"Mrs. Gu, are you aware that Mr. Gu has an illegitimate child?"

"Mrs. Gu, how are you feeling right now?"

……

In addition, there were those who handed the microphone to Mr. and Mrs. Gu.

"Chairman Gu, what are your thoughts on this matter?"

……

The banquet hall was in chaos. The Gu and Qi families were surrounded by reporters, while the guests who came to the banquet watched the excitement from all sides, including Cheng Yin and his mother.

Seeing the scene before him, Gu Zhaoting became even more convinced that this was a premeditated scheme. Otherwise, how could this video have suddenly appeared? How could the surveillance footage of him and Ye Yunyi and their son, as well as the paternity test report, have been exposed? And how could these reporters have appeared so coincidentally?

Looking at the chaotic scene before him, Mr. Gu immediately realized that if this matter were to be exposed, the reputation of the Gu family would be completely ruined, and even the stock price of the Gu Group would be affected.

Thinking of this, Mr. Gu quickly denied it: "Everyone, this must be a misunderstanding. How could there be an illegitimate child in our Gu family? This child is definitely not Gu Zhaoting's. Someone probably just found a random child to frame him..."

Gu Zhaoting's heart sank when he heard his father's denial. He now only hoped that Secretary Gao could successfully send Ye Yunyi and her son away without anyone discovering that they were here.

In the lounge, Ye Yunyi held Yangyang, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Secretary Gao isn't here either, and she doesn't know how long she'll have to wait.

"Mom, why hasn't Dad come to pick us up yet?" Yangyang asked.

Ye Yunyi glanced down at him and said, "It'll be soon. Dad will be here to pick us up in a bit."

She added, "Dad will take us to see Grandpa and Grandma later. When you see them, you have to be good and sensible. You have to greet them first and smile often so they will like you, okay?"

“I know,” Yangyang nodded. “Mom, you’ve said it so many times.”

The mother and son were talking quietly in the lounge when suddenly, Ye Yunyi vaguely heard a commotion coming from the banquet hall.

Just as she was wondering what was happening, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.

Ye Yunyi thought it was Secretary Gao who had arrived, so she quickly picked up Yangyang and stood up, saying, "Yangyang, let's go. It must be Dad who sent Uncle Gao to pick us up."

The mother and son arrived at the door of the lounge, opened it, and found that the person outside was not Secretary Gao, but a strange male waiter.

"Miss Ye," the waiter said.

Ye Yunyi looked puzzled: "Who are you?"

"Here's what happened. Something went wrong at the banquet hall. Someone leaked the paternity test report between President Gu and the young master in front of all the guests, and a group of reporters also stormed into the banquet hall."

"what?"

Ye Yunyi's face suddenly turned pale.

No wonder there was a bigger commotion in the banquet hall when the door was opened; something had happened.

"Then, what do we do now?" Ye Yunyi asked anxiously, holding the child tightly in her arms.

"Please don't worry," the waiter said. "I was sent by Mr. Gu to see you off."

"leave?"

"Yes, the situation in the banquet hall is chaotic right now. Mr. Gu was worried that something might happen to you, so he asked me to come and take you away first."

"Oh..." Ye Yunyi didn't suspect anything. She asked, "Are we leaving now?"

"Yes, let's go now, come with me."

"it is good."

Ye Yunyi quickly picked up her child and followed behind the waiter.

After walking for a while, she realized something was wrong: "Are we going through the main gate? Why aren't we going through the underground parking lot?"

The waiter turned around and replied naturally, "Mr. Gu's car is waiting at the hotel entrance. You don't need to go to the underground parking lot. And don't worry, those reporters are all inside the banquet hall. No one will be guarding the door, and no one will notice you."

Ye Yunyi thought it made sense, so she had no choice but to follow the waiter out.

As they exited the gate, Ye Yunyi was looking around for Gu Zhaoting's car when suddenly a group of reporters who had arrived late got out of the car and spotted them.

"Look, that looks like Mr. Gu's mistress and illegitimate child!"

“It really is, exactly the same person as in the surveillance video.”

……

Dozens of reporters, sensing the approaching news, immediately surrounded Ye Yunyi, leaving her no time to escape.

She was surrounded by reporters.

"Are you Miss Ye? I heard that you gave birth to an illegitimate child for Mr. Gu of the Gu Group. Is that true?"

"Miss Ye, is the child you're holding Mr. Gu's biological son?"

"Ms. Ye, I heard you used to be Mr. Gu's secretary?"

……

"No, I'm not!" Ye Yunyi covered Yangyang's face and denied it loudly.

She turned around, wanting to find the waiter who had led her out for help, but found herself surrounded by reporters, and the waiter who had brought her out was nowhere to be seen...

Secretary Gao rushed to the lounge after hearing Gu Zhaoting's instructions.

But when he arrived at the lounge, he found the door open and the person inside gone.
