Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!
Chapter 70: Where Is This?

Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Where Is This?

He doesn’t believe that brat will be able to argue his way out of it when the time comes.

"Have you found out who the child’s mother is?"

The butler standing to the side replied respectfully, "Not yet."

Hearing this response, Beichen Jue was furious, and he directly picked up the file on the table and hurled it at him fiercely.

When Beichen Jue was young, he had battled in the business world for many years, cultivating a no-nonsense, decisive demeanor. Although he was older now, his anger was still terrifying.

The butler was startled and knelt on the ground, not daring to look Beichen Jue in the eyes. He had followed the old master for many years and had rarely seen him this angry. As he aged, his heart had softened a lot.

Even with the Young Master, he had never been this furious. It was obvious that this time, the old master was really upset. "Master, it’s not that we didn’t check, but rather..."

"But rather what?" Beichen Jue asked coldly.

"But rather someone deliberately erased the records." The butler was so frightened he didn’t dare release a breath. It wasn’t that they hadn’t checked, but rather someone had erased all the records, making it impossible to investigate.

Hearing this, Beichen Jue realized he had a point. The records they had found on Jingxi were exactly like that.

At that time, the records were like this:

Name: Ye Jingxi

Age: 3 years old

Gender: Male

Place of birth unknown, parents unknown.

There were also a few photos. Except for the one on the swing, the rest were blurry, obviously taken secretly, but it wasn’t hard to make out the little one’s physical features.

When Beichen Jue saw these things, he was nearly enraged to the point of spitting blood.

What did it mean that the place of birth is unknown and parents unknown? What kind of things were these? The old master was so angry that the whole room of subordinates was kneeling without a word, afraid of offending the old master by any chance.

However, this also proved that there was a force protecting the little one from behind; otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible for nothing to be found.

Could it be Beichen Rui? It didn’t seem like it. If it really were him, how could he let the Beichen family’s bloodline roam outside?

This point was undeniable. Just by looking at the face that was almost identical to Beichen Rui’s when he was a child, he could confirm that this child was indeed of the Beichen family’s bloodline.

However, who exactly was secretly protecting the mother and son was unknown.

As Beichen Jue was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door.

Quickly withdrawing from his recollections, he said, "Come in."

A servant pushed the door open and came in. Respectfully, she bowed and said, "Master, he has woken up." The "he" the servant referred to was naturally Jingxi.

The old master immediately smiled, "Really? I’ll go take a look."

The butler quickly got up to support him and followed the old master to the adjoining room.

....

When Jingxi opened his eyes, he saw a white ceiling. Sitting up, he looked around and only then realized he was in a completely unfamiliar room.

The whole room was spacious, mainly in light blue tones, and he was lying on a large bed.

Pulling the quilt aside, he crawled off the bed and ran barefoot to the floor-to-ceiling window, opened a gap in the curtains, and looked outside. It was already dark outside.

Only the ground lights in the yard were on. Jingxi surveyed the courtyard environment. It seemed to be a villa.

Huh?

Wasn’t he at People’s Square buying snowflake pastries with Uncle Ning?

How did he end up here, and where was Mommy?

He remembered that in the afternoon, he wanted to eat snowflake pastries, so he pestered Uncle Ning to accompany him to buy them. When they were ready to go home, it seemed some men in black showed up and took him away.

He couldn’t remember anything after that, only that he found himself here upon waking up.

Just as Jingxi was puzzled, he heard the sound of the door lock turning behind him. The little guy, like a startled fawn, warily looked in the direction of the door.

The door opened, and Beichen Jue, leaning on a cane, entered the room supported by the butler. When he saw Jingxi, a kindly smile appeared on his face, showing none of the earlier fury from the study.

Seeing him come in, Jingxi furrowed his brows in confusion.

Who was this old grandpa? He didn’t seem to know him, and why was he here? Was it him who brought him here?

Not knowing him, why would he bring him here? These questions flashed through Jingxi’s mind, making him even more wary of Beichen Jue.

Beichen Jue knew he was staring at him, but he kept his face impassive and walked to sit down by the sofa.

"Child, come here," he called out to Jingxi. Jingxi not only didn’t approach him but instead retreated.

Why did he wake up here? He wanted Mommy. Mommy, where are you?

His heart was sour, but his face remained unaffected. Even though the elderly man in front of him looked kind and warm, he still wanted to go home. Thinking this, he said, "Grandpa, where is this place? Can you let me go home?"

His voice was soft and tender, carrying a unique childish tone.

Upon hearing his words, Beichen Jue was taken aback. He didn’t expect the little guy’s first words to him to be about wanting to go home.

This was his home; where else would he want to go? And what did he call him? Grandpa?

Beichen Jue was not pleased with this address. He thought to himself that he should be called Great Grandpa.

Thinking this, he didn’t say anything. After all, today was just the first meeting. If he told the little one the truth, he definitely wouldn’t believe it. Instead, he might think he was being tricked.

The most important thing now was to establish a rapport with the little one; everything else was secondary.

This kind of matter couldn’t be rushed. Now that he was home, there would be plenty of time to explain to him in the future.

He smiled and said, "Little friend, your name is Jingxi, right?"

Jingxi was taken aback; he didn’t expect him to know his name. But didn’t this mean that the grandpa possibly knew Mommy?

"Yes, yes. Who are you?"

Although it was possible, Jingxi still didn’t let his guard down.

"I know your mother. She asked me to take care of you," Beichen Jue lied.

Jingxi clearly didn’t believe it, and he skeptically responded, "Really?"

Mommy had never mentioned knowing such a grandpa before, and even if she wanted to find someone to take care of him, it definitely would have been his godmother rather than someone he’d never met.

Moreover, Mommy had been at home during this time and hadn’t gone on any trips, so where did the idea of her asking someone to help take care of him come from?

Jingxi was very sure in his heart that the grandpa was lying to him; as for why, he didn’t know.

Knowing in his heart that he was being lied to, but he didn’t expose him with his words, "Is that so, Grandpa? So is my mommy on a business trip?"

Beichen Jue was suddenly in a tight spot. He didn’t even know who his mommy was; how could he know if she had gone on a business trip?

Since he had lied, he had to continue the tale; otherwise, how would he earn the trust of the little one?

So, he nodded.
