Chapter 780: Shaohui’s Bloodline

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Ling felt that her hand was held by a soft little hand.

She looked down and saw Shaohui’s face in the dim light.

The small child looked up and said uneasily, “Mom, I don’t want to go on stage.”

“Why?” She knelt and asked gently.

The child’s voice was very soft. “I don’t want to call that person... great-grandfather.”

Xia Ling’s heart hurt. She knew her child best. He was always happy-go-lucky and did not mind when the servants offended him ocassionally. What kind of suffering did he endure such that he fully rejected a person?

She said, “Then don’t call him that.”

Shaohui’s eyes sparkled. “Is that really ok?”

“When have I ever lied to you?” Xia Ling smiled and stroked her child’s head in sympathy. “Rest assured, even if the world falls apart, your mom will be here for you.”

Thus, the child sighed in relief.

A soft white light swept through the crowd and stopped when it found the mother and child. On the stage, Li Lei smiled warmly as he invited them on stage. “Xiao Ling and Shaohui, come up.”

She held her child’s hand and walked on stage.

As they walked, the crowd automatically parted to give way to them.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the mother and child. The flashing lights of cameras were ceaseless as they captured this momentous scene. Xia Ling was already used to this, so she was elegant and calm as usual. Shaohui, however, rarely experienced this, so he tried to put on a majestic appearance. With his chubby face, he looked really cute.

They stood by Li Lei’s side and were separated from Old Master Li and Su Tang by a few steps.

Su Tang’s expression was awful, but it was concealed very well by her makeup and hair accessories. She still couldn’t believe that Shaohui was actually Li Lei’s biological son. Could this be an intentional strategy to make Old Master Li agree to Li Lei and Xia Ling as a couple?

It definitely must be!

She definitely had to expose their scheme!

She tightened her fists, her sharp nails piercing her palms.

Beside her, Old Master Li did not notice anything strange. He was completely focused on Shaohui. This was the first time he saw the child. When he was kindapped, he did not even bother to take a look at the photos. This child was very well-groomed and his eyebrows were beautiful. He wore a small silvery-white tuxedo and his posture was naturally noble, unlike civilian children who couldn’t even learn this no matter how they were dressed.

What was more surprising was that he was completely different from Li Rui who had a gloomy temperament.

Shaohui looked silly like Li Lei when he was younger.

After his past memories were evoked, Old Master Li liked this great-grandson even more. There was an unprecended kindness in his voice. “Are you Shaohui?”

Shaohui held Xia Ling tightly and shrank behind her light fairy-colored dress.

Old Master Li’s smile stiffened.

Li Lei explained. “This child is a little afraid of strangers.” In reality, he knew that this was a lie. Shaohui was scarred after being kidnapped to Blissful Paradise.

Old Master Li’s awkward expression eased a little.

Li Lei beant down and picked the five year old boy up without difficulty. He held the microphone and said to all the guests below the stage, “This is my son, Shaohui. He’s five years old this year and is older than Xiao Rui by one year. He’s my eldest son.”

There was another uproar.

Besides the media representatives, the guests were all from the upper class and understood what it meant to be the eldest son. At once, all kinds of gazes fell on Shaohui, Li Lei, Xia Ling and Shaohui. They initially thought that the eldest son was Su Tang’s Li Rui, but unexpectedly, it was Shaohui now.

Things were about to get interesting...

Who in the fourth generation of the Li Family would get the inheritance right?

Although the Li Family did not really follow the right of primogeniture completely, the eldest son would definitely get more benefits than the other sons as long as he was not dead.

Su Tang’s expression was ghastly, and she almost couldn’t keep it together.

Shaohui’s identity reveal was too sudden, and she just realized that this bastard was older than Li Rui by a year! How could it be?! She had to force herself to remain calm to avoid appearing awkward in front of the media.

Old Master Li smiled happily. It was great to have him as an eldest son...

Since this child was Li Lei’s biological son and his eldest, there was no pressure to take care of that good-for-nothing Li Rui who had no blood relation to the Li Family.

In the future, there would not be any situation in which Li Rui tried to compete for the inheritance right.

Old Master Li was elated.

Below the stage, a reporter asked, “Mr. Li and Miss Ye, congratulations for finding your biological child. However, there’s something I don’t understand. If this child is really yours, when was Miss Ye pregnant with him? We all know that Miss Ye is a public figure and only got pregnant once five years ago when she married into the Pei Family.”

After he asked this, everyone realized the questionable parts of the story.

“That’s true, Miss Ye. Give us an explanation. Was that child you gave birth to five years ago Pei Ziheng’s son? That child died after a hundred days, right?”

Xia Ling already expected that she would be interrogated about this.

She looked at Li Lei, who gave her an encouraging look.

Thus, she held the microphone and slowly told her story. “The situation is rather complicated and it’s quite hard to explain. In reality, the child I had five years ago wasn’t Pei Ziheng’s but Li Lei’s. The child went missing when he was a hundred days old and I thought he was dead. Thankfully, he wasn’t, and after many years of separation, God sent him back to me.”

There was a huge commotion in the crowd. This new information was too mindblowing, and their brains almost couldn’t accept it.

Su Tang was the first to react and immediately asked, “Miss Ye, do you mean that when you married Pei Ziheng and announced that you were pregnant with Pei Ziheng’s child, it was all just a show? The Pei Family did not get an heir but...” As if she knew she spoke rashly, she swallowed back her words.

“I’m sorry. I’m too shocked.” She sogtly apologized.

Xia Ling looked at her coldly. She did not even need to think to know that she did that on purpose.

Below the stage, the reporters were already clamouring for a response. “Miss Ye, were you playing Pei Ziheng for a fool?” Huge gossip, this was definitely mindblowing huge gossip! There was new conflict regarding the love affair of the two giants in the entertainment industry regarding the shocking mystery of their heirs!

The reporters were extremely excited.

However, many influential people looked at Xia Ling with faint disdain.

They all came from wealthy families and knew that lying about a child’s bloodline was a horrible crime to them.
