“No…” Chu Xun was perplexed and very serious. “Let me be frank with you, I can’t imagine who else would find someone to follow and investigate me… Could it be your father?”

Lin Yanchen hesitated for a moment. “I actually… haven’t even told my dad about you yet, but he may not necessarily be unaware, so there is that possibility.” 9EHypd

In Lin Yanchen’s heart, his father was an SSS-rank big devil king boss.

Chu Xun didn’t grasp this point, and instead stared at him and said, “You haven’t told your family about me yet? …I really don’t understand what you’re doing, Lin Yanchen.”

Lin Yanchen’s heart jumped. When he heard Chu Xun call him by his full name instead of his nickname, he knew that Chu Xun was angry. He said carefully, “I… I’m afraid my father will get in the way. I want to be completely prepared before laying down all my cards in front of him.”

“What preparations?” Chu Xun questioned, trying to get to the heart of the matter. 4giZN9

Lin Yanchen held his hand. “If he doesn’t agree, I’ll leave my family and elope with you.”

Chu Xun’s thick-skinned face turned red, and at a loss, he said, “That isn’t good, is it… Is it necessary to cut off all ties?”

He frowned. “Is your father that terrible? How do you know he’s definitely going to object?”

Lin Yanchen hesitated before he said, “I’ve been afraid to say it all this time, because I was worried it would make you unhappy.” KRS91J

Chu Xun: “Say it.”

Lin Yanchen lowered his head and pecked his lips. “Sour.” L1xeIW

Chu Xun coldly hmphed, and said in a bad tone, “My parents also wanted me to go on blind dates, but I refused and directly told them about you.

“It’s embarrassing to show me off, huh? My socioeconomic status isn’t good enough, I’m not good-looking, I’m older, and I’m even a man. My personality is also terrible; I’m full of shortcomings.”

Lin Yanchen kissed him. “My shortcomings are worse than yours.

“My biggest weakness is incompetence, which caused you to feel insecure like this.” q37FS

After talking about it, Chu Xun wasn’t as angry anymore. He swung their hands back and forth and said, “After all, he’s your father. If it’s possible, don’t get into a big fight with him; try not to let it get that far. Talk to him properly. If I need to be there, I’ll accompany you.”

Lin Yanchen: “If it doesn’t work out, Ah Xun, will you elope with me?”

Chu Xun laughed. “What elope? My parents don’t disapprove of you. You can take my family name. Jiu Jiu has my surname anyway.”

Lin Yanchen hugged him tightly, buried his face in his neck, and took a deep breath. “Okay, Ah Xun, I’m almost completely ready. I’ve actually also sorted out the inheritance my mother left me. When I return and see my father this time, I’ll confess everything to him properly. Whether it’s successful or not, the outcome won’t change.” rVjFTo

He was just afraid that his father would bully Chu Xun. He couldn’t win in a fight against his father; perhaps he should just properly bow his head to him this time.

Jiu Jiu held onto the rails of the crib, stood up, and called out in his milky voice, “Dad, dad…”

He let go and fell down on his butt. Looking up at his two dads, he reached out with his hands, also wanting a hug.

Chu Xun said, “Jiu Jiu wants us to hold him.” HXQPGB

Lin Yanchen could only let go of Chu Xun first and pick up Jiu Jiu, who was as soft as a cloud.

Chu Xun suddenly said, “I’m sorry. According to the normal order of things, we should have dated first, then get married, before making ample preparations to welcome a child. When I left, we were still just dating, and then I suddenly made you become a father. You should be upset, too.”

Lin Yanchen looked at Jiu Jiu, whom he was holding in his arms. The corners of his mouth turned down as he made a monster face. Jiu Jiu giggled and tried to copy him. He couldn’t do it very well, so just lazily wrinkled up his little face.

Lin Yanchen laughed and said sincerely and extremely gratefully, “I think it’s pretty good. Thanks to this little thing, you can’t act as if nothing happened, otherwise you’d definitely have abandoned me.” tD6Y9W

Chu Xun: “…”

Lin Yanchen went back the next day, ready to lay down all his cards in front of his family.

Chu Xun couldn’t calm down when he thought about the future, so much so that he was a bit out of it when he went to work. He only managed to concentrate with great difficulty; he couldn’t let anything affect his work.

Chu Xun received a text message from his mentor: I have something to discuss with you. Come to my office. PJc4Tp

Chu Xun got up and went over. He ran into Manager Tang on the way. Manager Tang bumped into him on purpose and snorted in a peculiar manner.

Chu Xun: “?”

Chu Xun entered the president’s office.

His mentor had him sit down for a talk. Chu Xun saw the pictures on the table. All of them were pictures of him. lkMTNt

Chu Xun: “…”

Chu Xun: “!!!”

Liu Zong’s mood was complicated. He knew that Chu Xun was very capable. As expected, gold would shine sooner or later. He knew that Zhuang Hanxue wanted to poach Chu Xun back, but he didn’t expect Lin Yanchen and Lu Hao to also come for Chu Xun. He was still wondering how Chu Xun got to know these people. He himself couldn’t match up to the wealth of the Lin family, and he hadn’t even had the chance to speak to Lin Yanchen.

They were all big companies and corporations; his company truly couldn’t be compared with them. Thus, he didn’t think that it was possible for Chu Xun to run away with the company’s trade secrets, as Manager Tang had said. SVJHR3

President Liu tactfully asked, “Are you not satisfied with your present salary? What salary do you want?”

Chu Xun understood that he had wrongly accused Xiao Lin’s father. This was truly an unexpected mishap.

President Liu took out a picture of Chu Xun and Lin Yanchen together. “I know that the salary I give you isn’t high enough, and doesn’t match the work you’ve been doing. But I’m still rather curious: How do you know the young master of the Lin family? He has quite a good eye, to choose you.”

These words could be interpreted differently, and Chu Xun blushed slightly. “Mentor, I don’t want to switch jobs. Lin Yanchen and I are not… in the kind of relationship you’re thinking of.” 59687Q

President Liu asked, “Then what is your relationship?”

Chu Xun said with a red face, “Weren’t you complaining about how I didn’t tell you when I got a boyfriend? …Lin Yanchen is my boyfriend.”

On the other side.

Lin Yanchen found his father, who was currently reading a document. 2cxlsR

Lin Yanchen took a deep breath and solemnly said, “Dad, I have something to tell you.”

Lin Shaoyuan didn’t look up and said without thinking too much, “En… go ahead.”

After reading a few more lines, he shifted his attention from his work document and looked at Lin Yanchen. Seeing his serious expression, Lin Shaoyuan was startled. “What’s the matter? What are you going to do?”

Lin Yanchen said, “Dad, I’m begging you, don’t have people follow Chu Xun.” Gl72vZ

Lin Shaoyuan wanted to say something, then hesitated. He took off his glasses and closed the file. He asked blankly, “Chu Xun… who is that?”
