Chapter 843: Chapter 843: Blatant Favoritism
Zhan Youyou couldn’t listen to Zhan Qing’s words. When she saw Mr. Qi about to leave, she hurriedly caught up with him in big strides.
"Grandpa, I don’t want to go home, Grandpa..."
Mr. Qi stopped and frowned, not speaking immediately.
Zhan Youyou wanted to say something more, but Zhan Qing came over and grabbed her hand to take her away, "Don’t make a fool of yourself here, come home with me."
Zhan Youyou forcefully shook her hand, and somehow, she slapped the child in Zhan Qing’s arms in the face.
The child was startled at first, then burst into loud cries, as if he had suffered a great grievance.
Zhan Qing looked at the child in his arms, his face dark, "Zhan Youyou, I’ll give you one more chance: come with me or stay here? Think carefully, if you don’t come home with me today, you can forget about ever returning to the Zhan Family."
"Do you think I care about the Zhan Family? Zhan Qing, look at yourself, bringing a bastard child here; are you afraid others won’t know you have a bastard child outside?"
The term "bastard child" made Lin Wanyun abruptly turn around and cover Zhan Mobai’s ears.
But it was too late. She clearly saw the confusion in Zhan Mobai’s eyes, and then it seemed he understood something, as he looked at the child in Zhan Qing’s arms without much expression.
Lin Wanyun’s eyes watered, "Xiao Bai, she’s just talking nonsense, don’t listen to her."
Zhan Mobai moved her hand away and nodded obediently, "I know, I won’t listen to her."
Lin Wanyun took a deep breath, "Good boy, Mommy will take you home, we’ll leave right now."
Lin Wanyun still couldn’t carry Zhan Mobai, so she could only hold his hand to leave.
Halfway through, Zhan Qing called to her from behind, "Wait for me a moment, I’ll go back with you."
After speaking, Zhan Qing looked at Zhan Youyou again, "Are you coming, or not?"
Zhan Youyou didn’t even think before shaking her head, "I won’t go; Grandpa said I should stay here to recuperate and he will send me home when I’m better."
Zhan Qing said meaningfully, "You better have the ability to stay here for a lifetime."
With that, he took his wife and child and left without looking back.
Chi Yue wanted to chase after them, but was stopped by Fu Rongyin.
Fu Rongyin shook his head at her. Chi Yue roughly understood what he meant, but it was hard not to worry about Lin Wanyun, after all, with Zhan Qing holding a time bomb, who knows when it might explode.
But things here were not yet resolved, and she couldn’t leave for a while.
Seeing Zhan Qing really leave like that, Mr. Qi finally spoke, "Then stay a while longer, no one is allowed to mention tonight’s events ever again."
This was blatant favoritism towards Zhan Youyou.
Chi Yue and Fu Rongyin had no objections, Qi Hongwen exchanged a glance with the couple, and left angrily, "What kind of nuisance have we brought home."
Mr. Qi was furious, but it was hard to bring anything up again.
The banquet ended on a sour note.
Chi Yue and Fu Rongyin returned to their room with Fu Mianmian; after coaxing her to sleep, Chi Yue took the keys and was about to leave.
Fu Rongyin frowned, "Where are you going now?"
"I’m worried about Lin Wanyun."
"She’ll be fine."
Chi Yue shook her head, "Today, Zhan Qing even brought the child out in the open, which shows he no longer cares about Lin Wanyun’s feelings. If something happens, she won’t be able to handle it."
There’s no way she could take Zhan Mobai back by force.
Zhan Mobai is her life; if Zhan Qing takes the child away, she’ll be devastated.
Fu Rongyin was silent for a moment, "Zhan Qing won’t do anything to her. If you want to go, I’ll have the bodyguards take you there."
She was also not at ease leaving Fu Mianmian alone at home.
