Qi Yue turned off the recording and immediately said anxiously, “Lu Rong, this woman has ulterior motives. Hurry up and chase her out!”

Lu Rong pinched the space between his brows and leaned back against the chair. He said, “I understand what you’re saying, but I can’t chase her out yet.”

Qi Yue asked in surprise, “Why?”

“Because of Ran Ran. She needs Bai Qian to take care of her,” Lu Rong explained.

“Ran Ran?” Qi Yue lowered her head and thought for a while. Then she raised her head and said seriously, “Lu Rong, I can take care of Ran Ran. After all, I’m her aunt. Isn’t it better for me to take care of her, rather than some outsider?”

“How can you take care of her? Do you think Ran Ran still wants to see you after you slapped her?” Lu Rong looked at her with amusement.

Qi Yue hurriedly explained herself, “It’s not like that. I was also deceived by someone. It was all the fault of that appraisal agency. He lied to me and said that she wasn’t your child and I believed him. Before this, I really thought that she was a fake. Besides, she spoke rudely. That’s why I couldn’t help but hit her!”

As she said that, tears flowed down her cheeks, “I really didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just that I wrongly believed the slander. I will definitely treat her well in the future. After all, I’m her biological aunt!”

“There’s no need. Ran Ran doesn’t want to see you. She’s still so small. I don’t want her to be unhappy,” Lu Rong rejected flatly.

“But I’m related to her by blood. Besides, Bai Qian has evil intentions. She can’t possibly treat Ran Ran with all her heart!”

“Enough,” Lu Rong interrupted her coldly. “When it comes to evil intentions, do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? Since I can tolerate you, I can also tolerate her.”

Qi Yue choked on her words, then turned around and left resentfully.

Before closing the door, she looked at Lu Rong, unwilling to admit defeat, but Lu Rong did not even look at her.

Lu Rong, who was sitting on the chair, got up somewhat impatiently and went to the bathroom.

“Mommy, don’t worry. I’m a man, I’ll take good care of myself!” A crisp boy’s voice sounded behind him.

Lu Rong stopped in his tracks. The company had made it clear that employees were not allowed to bring their children to work. So, whose child was this?

Just as he was thinking about this, the door of the cubicle suddenly opened and a little boy jumped in. He held a water gun in his hand and without saying a word, he sprayed the water at Lu Rong as he shouted, “Daddy! Take this! Biubiubiu!”

Lu Rong:”…”

His exquisite suit was instantly drenched. The water dripped onto his shiny leather shoes and formed a small puddle on the floor.

His expression instantly turned cold. Where did this devilish brat come from?

After he finished shooting the water from the water gun, the devilish brat slowly put down the water gun. He covered his mouth in surprise and asked, “Who are you?”

“Only when he finished shooting did he ask who he was? As expected of a devilish brat!” Lu Rong thought to himself. Looking at the little boy who was wearing a hat and was only slightly higher than his knees, he frowned and asked, “Who are you? Why are you here?”

“Uncle, you haven’t answered my question yet!” Bai Xu raised his head proudly and looked at him.

Lu Rong, who originally did not have much patience with children, for the first time, did not directly ask someone to throw the kid out. Instead, he patiently asked again, “Where are your parents?”

“My, my father, he, he died!” Bai Xu said while pouting.

Lu Rong frowned even more. “Are you lying to me? You just mistook me for your father, and now you’re saying he’s dead?”

“Sob, sob, sob,” Bai Xu wiped his nonexistent tears and said pitifully, “Uncle, you look too much like my father, so I couldn’t help but call you that!”
