Chapter 701: Chapter 701 The Original Yang is Still Present

The most crucial thing was, he simply didn’t remember having anything with Bai Ruoxi.

The inexplicable joy of unexpectedly becoming a father was not something just anyone could enjoy.

The Quan family patriarch also knew about Bai Ruoxi and her son’s appearance on the talk show.

As far as the Quan family patriarch was concerned, his relationship with Quan Jinbei was already strained.

But it didn’t matter, as Quan Jinbei still had his blood running through his veins.

After all, he was his own flesh and blood, so when it came to disciplining his son, he had every right to do so.

It was because of this legitimacy that the old man called Quan Jinbei’s cell phone, demanding that Jinbei acknowledge his son.

"Third one, you’ve got an illegitimate child without a word? Don’t always blame me, thinking that I’ve fathered so many illegitimate brothers for you. Think about it, aren’t you doing the same?"

Quan Jinbei snorted coldly, "I’m not like you."

"What’s the difference?" the old man asked, unconcerned. "Aren’t they both illegitimate children? What, is your illegitimate child more precious than mine?"

Quan Jinbei clenched his teeth, "Bai Tangyuan is not my illegitimate child!"

"What do you mean he’s not your illegitimate child?" the old man snorted coldly. "Do you think I’m blind? Just because I’m old doesn’t mean I can’t tell if that child is yours or not!"

"He looks exactly like you did when you were little. Do you dare say he has nothing to do with you?"

"He has nothing to do with me," Quan Jinbei repeated firmly.

The old man still didn’t believe him.

"Don’t talk to me about this, I won’t listen!"

"If you won’t listen, forget it then." Quan Jinbei said and then hung up the phone.

The Quan family patriarch listened to the dial tone on the phone and his face darkened.

"You little brat, hanging up on me!"

Quan Sicheng, who sat with the old man, sighed faintly after seeing his reaction, "Dad, do you really like the third brother’s illegitimate child?"

Speaking of illegitimate children, Quan Sicheng couldn’t hide the embarrassment on his face.

If Bai Tangyuan was indeed Jinbei’s son, an illegitimate child,

then he... was an illegitimate child as well.

In the old man’s words, who was more precious than whom?

An illegitimate child is born with original sin.

The Quan family patriarch wasn’t aware of his son’s mood; he was fully occupied with how to make Jinbei agree to acknowledge Bai Tangyuan.

Even though his relationship with Jinbei had deteriorated, it didn’t stop him from meddling in his son’s affairs.

Bai Tangyuan, after all, was a grandson with the Quan family blood in his veins.

If his existence had remained unknown, it might have been different, but now it was nearly public knowledge.

Under such circumstances, giving up his grandson was absolutely out of the question.

Even if his relationship with his son had deteriorated, it didn’t mean he would neglect his grandson’s well-being.

After all, he was of Quan family lineage; how could he let him be lost to the world?

Jinbei had no idea of the "great" plans the old patriarch harbored.

Since he didn’t believe Bai Tangyuan was his son, he naturally wouldn’t accept him.

Unwilling to acknowledge the child, he certainly wouldn’t allow Bai Ruoxi and Bai Tangyuan to continue spreading rumors online.

He posted a message online under his verified identity.

Quan Jinbei currently had only one wife and no strange offspring.

Shi Yaoguang followed by reposting the message.

Shi Yaoguang’s fans breathed a sigh of relief at this.

They knew that with a beauty like Shi Yaoguang around, how could Quan Jinbei possibly cheat?

But some still felt something was off.

Shi Yaoguang was indeed a great beauty, and she definitely deserved Quan Jinbei’s full and devoted attention.

However, the existence of Bai Ruoxi and Bai Tangyuan was a matter from seven years ago.

Bai Tangyuan was already six or seven years old.

Clearly, this was not a recent event.

If, seven years ago, Quan Jinbei really had something with Bai Ruoxi, wouldn’t that mean Bai Tangyuan was indeed his son?

Bloodlines speak for themselves, don’t they? Even if Quan Jinbei didn’t want to admit it, that would be futile, right?

Thinking this way, people started to doubt whether what Quan Jinbei said was true.

Bai Tangyuan resembles Quan Jinbei so much, and it happens that Quan Jinbei is the third eldest. The "third brother" that Bai Ruoxi mistakenly called out also matches up.

Moreover, Quan Jinbei already had an adopted son when he was twenty.

It’s only a family as large as the Quan Family that would need to adopt a son beforehand, which ordinary family would need to do that?

Thinking along these lines, doesn’t that make the Quan Family even more suspicious?

Anyhow, summarizing the problems from various aspects, there’s definitely something off about Quan Jinbei.

Bai Tangyuan is definitely Quan Jinbei’s son.

As a result, beneath the Weibo comments of Quan Jinbei and Shi Yaoguang, a swarm of mocking voices appeared.

"Anyone can see that Bai Tangyuan is Quan Jinbei’s son, what, you still don’t dare to admit it? What use is having a big family and business if you can’t even acknowledge your own son?"

"Could it be Shi Yaoguang threatened him?"

"Can the person above use their brain? Shi Yaoguang is not that kind of person!"

"So because you said she’s not that kind of person, she isn’t?"

"When I say she’s not, she’s not! Shi Yaoguang has no need to do such things."

"That’s not necessarily true, love isn’t something that reason can control. Who knows, the actress you all think so highly of might just be a petty person filled with jealousy!"

"The actress is not that kind of person!"

Shi Yaoguang, looking at the squabbling among the middle schoolers in her comment section, felt somewhat helpless.

Quan Jinbei, observing her expression, felt a twinge of guilt.

Even if he didn’t believe Bai Tangyuan was indeed his son, in the face of such a situation, he still felt guilty.

Had it not been for him, Shi Yaoguang would not have suffered this baseless disaster.

"Wife, about this matter..."

Shi Yaoguang didn’t wait for him to finish and said, "Don’t you find this whole situation rather strange?"

"Hmm?" Quan Jinbei immediately looked at her.

His eyes were filled with confusion.

This matter was indeed strange.

However, judging by Shi Yaoguang’s attitude, the strangeness she referred to didn’t seem to match what he had in mind?

As he was pondering, Shi Yaoguang continued, "If Bai Ruoxi really had something with you, it would be understandable, but she clearly has..."

She paused, then changed her way of speaking, "She clearly came with a purpose."

Moreover, what she didn’t say was that in the past few days, some new memories had surfaced in her mind.

And well, her judgement of people had gained a slight... ahem, accuracy.

How to describe it exactly?

It’s like when looking at a person, you can see through the "qi" on that person.

In layman’s terms, it’s called "yuan yang."

And to put it bluntly, Quan Jinbei was still a virgin.

Quan Jinbei, oblivious to Shi Yaoguang’s thoughts, saw her funny expression and couldn’t help asking, "Do you really not suspect me at all?"

After all, Bai Ruoxi’s claims were so adamant, it would be normal for Shi Yaoguang to suspect him.

He even felt that it would be normal for Shi Yaoguang to doubt him.

Shi Yaoguang cleared her throat and said solemnly, "Of course I don’t suspect you."

"Even though Bai Tangyuan looks so much like me, you don’t have any doubts?" Quan Jinbei pressed further.

Shi Yaoguang glanced at him and retorted, "Are you hoping he’s your son?"
