Chapter 693: Chapter 693: You Drank for Your Son

Bai Tangyuan felt like her brain had crashed upon hearing Shi Yaoguang’s words.

He ... he didn’t mishear, did he?

What did this woman say?

Isn’t she Uncle Tang Nade’s fiancée?

How is that possible!

No, no, no, it absolutely can’t be.

She must be saying this on purpose to scare him!

Thinking this, Bai Tangyuan grew even bolder, "Don’t think that just because you say so, I will be afraid of you! Let me tell you, I will never bow to evil forces!"

Shi Yaoguang nodded in agreement, "I also think you shouldn’t bow to evil forces."

"However ..."

She drew out her last word, her tone ominously chilly.

He had no idea what she was going to say to scare him this time.

In his mind, Bai Tangyuan cheered himself on and then confidently stated, "If you still want to marry Uncle Tang Nade, you have to treat me well, or Uncle Tang Nade definitely won’t like you. If Uncle Tang Nade doesn’t like you, you won’t have a good time!"

Hearing these words, Shi Yaoguang looked at Tang Nade with a smirk, "Mr. Tang Nade, do you want to marry me?"

Tang Nade’s head shook like a rattle-drum, "No, I don’t want to!"

"Really don’t want to?"

Shi Yaoguang let out a light laugh, "I thought from what the little friend here suggests, you might have had some improper thoughts about me."

Bai Tangyuan couldn’t help but roll her eyes, "Could you not be so narcissistic? Who would have any improper thoughts about you? Uncle Tang Nade only likes my mommy!"

"Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, everyone who knows my mommy likes her, so you’d better give up early!"

As Bai Tangyuan said this, her gaze finally settled on Quan Jinbei.

She looked at Quan Jinbei, wanting to see if this uncle, like everyone else, had improper thoughts about her mommy.

But quickly, she spotted a very important issue.

That was ...

This man bore an identical face to her own!

Or rather, it was more accurate to say it was a carbon copy.

Considering age, it was definitely her who resembled this man.

Bai Tangyuan had an incredible thought rise in her heart.

All these years she had lived with her mommy and had never met her daddy.

Could the man in front of her possibly be her daddy?

The idea that she might have finally met her biological father brought a gleam of joy to her eyes.

But she restrained the impulse to rush towards him.

This daddy was too close to the bad woman; he might be on the bad woman’s side.

She didn’t want to be with the bad woman.

Plus, this man was the bad woman’s husband!

Thinking this, any warmth and joy in her heart disappeared without a trace.

Her glance at Quan Jinbei carried a bit more disdain and dissatisfaction.

Just one look at this man and you could tell he was no good.

She would never let her mommy be with him.

Thinking this, she felt a vague sense of satisfaction.

Even if Daddy wanted to acknowledge her, she wouldn’t agree.

Who asked him to be so close to the bad woman.

Just as Bai Tangyuan was fantasizing about how she would cruelly punish Daddy before deciding whether to forgive him, Quan Jinbei spoke up.

The words he spoke were neither the plea for peace that Bai Tangyuan had imagined, nor was it stepping forward to tell him that he was Bai Tangyuan’s daddy.

Instead, he reminded Shi Yaoguang, "Wife, your coffee has gone cold, and if you leave it any longer, it’ll lose its flavor."

Upon hearing this, a big smile instantly bloomed on Bai Tangyuan’s face.

At the same time, he shot Shi Yaoguang a provocative look.

As if to say, "See? Another man is bowing down under the pomegranate skirt of my mommy."

Shi Yaoguang faced his challenging gaze with a curve forming at the corner of her lips.

Bai Tangyuan looked triumphantly at Shi Yaoguang, unaware that what Quan Jinbei had said wasn’t what he understood it to be.

"The coffee will have no taste left if you don’t drink it now, so you mother and son figure it out—who’s going to drink it?"

At these words, both Bai Ruoxi and Bai Tangyuan were taken aback.

What does he mean by seeing who will drink it?

Why should they be the ones to drink it?

Knowing that there’s something in there, who would be foolish enough to just drink it?

Under normal circumstances, indeed no one would do that, but aren’t we operating outside of the norm now?

"You couldn’t possibly expect me to hand over the matter to my customs officer friend, could you? If you are reluctant, then you now have only one option."

Bai Ruoxi had a bad feeling, "What option?"

"Get rid of the substance before I call him over."

Bai Tangyuan was disdainful, thinking that it wouldn’t be difficult to dispose of the substance before the person arrived. If he just poured it away, no one would discover it.

Thinking this, Bai Tangyuan’s eyes rolled around as he looked at the coffee cup, waiting for a chance to strike fatally.

But would Shi Yaoguang really let him get away with it so easily?

Obviously, she wouldn’t.

Even if it came to a physical confrontation, Bai Ruoxi and her son would never be able to snatch it from her.

After Bai Tangyuan’s attempt proved fruitless, he became frustrated and angry, "What do you mean?"

Shi Yaoguang looked at Bai Tangyuan with a kind smile, "My meaning is quite simple. Since the coffee has been made, it’s meant to be drunk. I can’t bear to waste your good intentions, so I plan to save it. If you don’t want my customs officer friend to help me analyze it, then... just drink it yourself."

Hearing this, Bai Tangyuan’s face turned instantly pale.

He knew what he had put in his coffee and naturally couldn’t drink it.

Now, hearing Shi Yaoguang say this, his face naturally turned ashen.

As she looked at his pale little face, Shi Yaoguang shrugged, "I can’t help it, who made me such a generous and kind person? I am so benevolent, I certainly won’t make things difficult for you."

But Bai Tangyuan didn’t breathe a sigh of relief at her words.

If Shi Yaoguang truly had no intention of making things difficult for him, she wouldn’t have said so much.

Since she had spoken, it was clear that she intended to make things hard for him.

Thinking this, his face became even uglier.

At this moment, Shi Yaoguang had become synonymous with malice in his heart.

"There’s no use in looking at me like that," Shi Yaoguang said, showing an innocuous expression, "Even if you look at me that way, it’s futile. I won’t let you off lightly just because of your pathetic little puppy eyes."

Bai Ruoxi, watching Bai Tangyuan tremble with fear, couldn’t help but stand up to be a strong mother and speak for him, "Mrs. Quan, aren’t you going too far? Tangyuan is still just a child, how can you treat him like this?"

"What did I do to him?" Shi Yaoguang replied, "Have I done anything wrong?"

"Bullying Tangyuan on purpose, and yet you say you haven’t done anything wrong?" Bai Ruoxi accused with an interrogative tone, "Do you realize how much psychological trauma this could bring to Tangyuan?"

As she spoke, she cast a pleading look towards Quan Jinbei, hoping he would say something in their favor.

Quan Jinbei received her plea for help and indeed gave a response.

But his response was not what Bai Ruoxi had hoped for.

"My wife is a kind person; she doesn’t bully children," he said, pausing for a moment before adding, "Since you are his mother and can’t bear to see him suffer, then you drink the coffee yourself."
