Chapter 823: Chapter 823: Tong Qingyan, Have You Been Cuckolded?

Tong Qingyan harbored a deep-seated loathing for Bai Chuwei, yet she had to admit that Bai Chuwei possessed many exceptional qualities that she might never be able to match in her lifetime.

Although Bai Chuwei often made unpleasant remarks, sometimes they were actually true.

Adopting many fathers? What did that mean?

Coming out from the side, Duan Xingye had also overheard the conversation and his expression gradually turned odd. "Xu Xingchen has got many godfathers? That can’t be, can it?"

In the past, the term "godfather" was quite positive, but over time it had developed a different connotation.

He had adopted godfathers, and not just one or two.

Could it be...

Duan Xingye somewhat disbelieved, but then suddenly remembered his own father Duan Xiuhao’s social media updates.

A few days ago, Duan Xiuhao had posted on his social media about how sons grow up and become less close to their fathers.

Initially, Duan Xingye thought he was referring to him; ever since he had become disillusioned with his biological father, he hadn’t bothered with Duan Xiuhao much.

He would always like his father’s posts in the past, but now he acted as if he didn’t see them.

Then he thought about it, how could it be him? It was probably Xu Xingchen.

If Xu Xingchen was no longer close to his father Duan Xiuhao, then where was he getting his living expenses?

Duan Xingye felt uneasy and was even more startled when he heard Bai Chuwei say that Xu Xingchen had many godfathers. Could Xu Xingchen be getting money from these "godfathers"?

Tong Qingyan of course knew what a godfather was and felt a pang of alarm. Lately, Xu Xingchen indeed had been using his phone frequently at home and always brought back some nice things. He always said they were from his dad, Uncle Duan, so she never gave it much thought.

Could it be...

Bai Chuwei watched with interest as Tong Qingyan’s face underwent a dramatic change.

With her face ashen, Tong Qingyan hurried down the stairs.

Before she even got close, Xu Xingchen, who had sensed her approach, had already closed his phone and greeted her with a gentle smile. "Qingyan, have you finished your exam? How did it go?"

With a stern face, Tong Qingyan snatched Xu Xingchen’s phone. "What’s the unlock password? Who have you been chatting with all this time?"

Could Xu Xingchen really have found himself several godfathers?

A flicker of panic passed through Xu Xingchen’s eyes. "No, I’ve just been talking more with my dad, after all, I’m studying in Imperial Capital and can’t show filial piety in his presence."

Tong Qingyan, remembering Bai Chuwei’s mocking gaze, obstinately said, "Then unlock your phone and let me see!"

Classmates preparing to leave the exam room for the library glanced over frequently, starting to murmur among themselves.

"Could the belle of our department have been cheated on?"

"Man, even Tong Qingyan with her looks could get cheated on? Out of all the department beauties in the school, Tong Qingyan is the first!"

A male student nearby nodded in agreement. "Exactly, aren’t all the department beauties with boyfriends treated like goddesses by their guys? To be cheated on, that’s just too..."

Too miserable, wasn’t it?

Xu Xingchen, his face reddening to his ears, quickly tugged on Tong Qingyan’s sleeve and whispered, "Qingyan, it’s embarrassing out here, let’s go back and talk about it."

Tong Qingyan, noticing the onlookers who were eager to see some drama, suddenly realized the situation.

She turned and glared at Bai Chuwei fiercely. Did Bai Chuwei deliberately say it out loud to make all their classmates watch the commotion?

To see her acting like a shrew out in public and ruin her image completely?

Grinding her teeth, Tong Qingyan forced out a few words through clenched teeth: "Let’s talk back home!"

She wouldn’t give Bai Chuwei the satisfaction.
