Chapter 700: Chapter 700: Don’t mess with Tangyuan’s Dad

Even if we ignore certain objective factors, just the fact that Bai Tangyuan and Quan Jinbei’s faces look like they were carved from the same mold makes it completely unrealistic to believe they have no relation whatsoever.

Some people can accept this fact.

Others cannot.

"So you’re saying Bai Tangyuan is Quan Jinbei’s son?"

"The case is cracked."

"This is so hard for me!"

"Sisters upstairs, what’s so hard for you?"

"I want a husband and I want a son too!"

"I’m different, I want to marry a husband, I want to marry off a son too!"

"Holy crap! Sister, you’re so twisted."

"A life without being twisted is meaningless!"

The butler couldn’t help but send a bullet comment after reading this.

"All of you stop speculating wildly, the Third Young Master doesn’t have an illegitimate child!"

The message sent by the butler was not at all eye-catching.

The netizens’ typing speed was incredibly fast, and the butler’s message was quickly drowned in a sea of comments.

It wouldn’t affect anyone’s judgment at all.

Not to mention, by now, most people were already convinced that Bai Tangyuan was Quan Jinbei’s son.

"Am I the only one who thinks this is Miss Bai riding on the coattails of popularity?"

"Exactly, perhaps Bai Tangyuan is about to debut, and Miss Bai is saying all this just to boost his popularity."

"If not for Master Quan, who would know who Bai Tangyuan is."

"Now that everyone knows about Bai Tangyuan, if Bai Tangyuan enters the entertainment industry, he will definitely be a top influencer from a young age."

"What’s called a marketing genius? This is it!"

"Can’t help but admit it!"

Others thought the netizens believed too much in conspiracy theories.

"What’s wrong with Miss Bai bringing her baby to find his father? Why does everything have to be about marketing?"

"Who said Bai Tangyuan is debuting? Miss Bai has no intention of letting Bai Tangyuan debut at all!"

"If Miss Bai really wanted Bai Tangyuan to debut, she could have signed a contract with an agency immediately. But look, when Bai Tangyuan’s popularity was high, Miss Bai made no arrangements. How could she possibly do it now?"

"Are you sure it was the peak of popularity before? The more attention and discussion there is, the more likely it’s the pinnacle of popularity, right? If it were me, I would also know to play the long game to catch a big fish."

Seeing the comments section boil over with discussions, the TV station’s executives were laughing hysterically.

"This interview has been a great success, the views are at an all-time high!"

The host was also very happy, as this was the show she had hosted.

Although there was no commission, being seen by more people was still an opportunity.

To maintain this great momentum, the host couldn’t help but suggest, "Director, how about we do a sequel?"

"A sequel?"

"Yes, yes, look at how hot the topic of Miss Bai and Bai Tangyuan is. The discussion isn’t going to die down anytime soon! If we take advantage of this opportunity for a marketing push, our views are guaranteed to skyrocket!"

The executive thought for a moment, then nodded approvingly, "Your idea is good!"

"As long as you’re not opposed, Mr. Executive," said the host, who had already begun to arrange the following topics.

As long as they could keep everyone’s attention, their show would be considered explosively popular.

However, before the host could come up with a good plan, problems arose.

The station’s executives came to ask the host, "Do you know who Bai Tangyuan’s father is?"

The host shook her head, then shared her speculation, "Miss Bai didn’t tell me, but I guess there’s an eighty percent chance it’s Quan Jinbei."

Hearing this, the executive’s face suddenly changed, "What did you say?"

The host became somewhat nervous, "Is there a problem with that?"

"Is there a problem? It’s a big issue!"

The executive paced back and forth, "No, no, you quickly go and figure out who Bai Tangyuan’s father really is!"

The host asked hesitantly, "What if it really is Quan Jinbei?"

"If it’s him? If it’s him then we can’t air it!"

Hearing this, a displeased expression crossed her face, "But we have such huge viewership, to give that up..."

"Popularity? Offended Quan Third Master, and you still want what popularity! Hurry up and clear things up!"

Seeing the director so anxious, the host couldn’t help but get anxious as well.

If the director didn’t dare to offend that person, neither did she.

All she could hope was... that Miss Bai and Bai Tangyuan were just here for the popularity, right?

If they were really just here to create a scene with Quan Jinbei, then the show could still go on.

Even though it was creating a scene, after all, it didn’t harm Quan Jinbei’s interests.

Thinking this, the host approached Bai Tangyuan.

"Tangyuan, can you tell me who your daddy is?"

Bai Tangyuan looked at her warily, "I can’t say."

"Good Tangyuan, sister just wants to know who your daddy is, only then can she help you find your daddy better, right?"

Bai Tangyuan thought for a moment, then nodded.

"What you said makes sense."

Seizing the opportunity, the host pressed, "Then tell sister quickly, who is your daddy?"

"It’s..."

Bai Tangyuan hadn’t finished speaking when he was interrupted by Bai Ruoxi, "Tangyuan, what are you doing?"

Bai Tangyuan immediately ran over to Bai Ruoxi and said to her, "Host sister is asking me who my daddy is."

Bai Ruoxi’s expression changed, "Haven’t I told you, you can’t tell others?"

Bai Tangyuan pursed his lips, "But I didn’t say it, ah."

Bai Ruoxi narrowed her eyes, "Really didn’t say?"

"No, no!" Bai Tangyuan assured, "I definitely didn’t tell anyone that daddy is Quan Jinbei!"

Bai Ruoxi: "..."

Host: "..."

How did she not notice before that Bai Tangyuan was so naïve?

Bai Ruoxi felt helpless while the host was delighted.

Indeed her deduction was correct, Bai Tangyuan’s father is indeed Quan Jinbei.

But very soon, that little delight dissipated into thin air.

Because...

The director had said, they couldn’t report anything about Quan Jinbei.

There is nothing more frustrating than knowing there’s a big news story but not being able to report it.

Bai Ruoxi originally didn’t want Bai Tangyuan to reveal his father’s identity, but seeing the attitude of the host, she felt something was odd.

"Is there some problem with Tangyuan’s father’s identity?"

She tentatively asked.

The host looked at her and sighed, "Ah, who says it isn’t? If Tangyuan’s father were someone else, I would want to do a follow-up episode."

"But with Tangyuan’s father’s identity, we, a small TV station, really can’t afford to provoke."

Hearing this, Bai Ruoxi’s brows knitted together.

She understood what the host meant.

The implication was that Quan Jinbei... the TV station couldn’t afford to provoke him.

At this thought, Bai Ruoxi felt a wave of frustration.

Originally, she had hoped to use the program’s public opinion to make Quan Jinbei compromise.

She hadn’t expected the TV station to be so timid.

However, thinking about it from another angle, this might not be a bad thing.

If the people from the TV station didn’t dare mess with Quan Jinbei’s identity, it just proved that after being together with him, she and her son could expect good days ahead!

The only problem now was...

How could she make Quan Jinbei accept Tangyuan?

While Bai Ruoxi was caught in half joy, half worry, Quan Jinbei was also dealing with a headache over this matter.

Although Shi Yaoguang did not create any fuss with him over the child’s matter, he himself was also very irritated.

Wouldn’t anyone who suddenly finds out they have an illegitimate child feel troubled?
