Chapter 75: Chapter 75: How Did You Get Here?

Lan Shan felt that the whole world had turned surreal. At first, when Xinluo mentioned this person to her, she didn’t take it seriously.

She always thought this person was just a playboy. It wasn’t until now that she realized she had been overthinking it.

The man before her was simply a godlike being.

"H-hello."

"May I come in?" Gong Shaoyu asked lightly, a faint smile still lingering at the corners of his mouth.

Lan Shan quickly moved aside, saying, "Of course."

Gong Shaoyu walked into the room and immediately saw Ye Xinluo staring blankly on the sofa.

He stepped towards her direction.

Standing over her, he gazed down at her.

Ye Xinluo was absorbed in her own thoughts, not noticing the person in front of her until Lan Shan gently called her.

"Xinluo."

Ye Xinluo came back to herself, looked at Lan Shan, and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Lan Shan smiled and said, "Xinluo, look who’s here."

Hearing Lan Shan’s words, Ye Xinluo belatedly realized there was someone standing in front of her.

She looked up and, upon seeing the person’s face, froze.

After a long moment, she snapped back to reality and asked, "Why are you here?"

Gong Shaoyu smiled, reaching out to ruffle her fluffy hair, "I heard Jingxi went missing, so I came to check it out."

"Aren’t you usually busy with work? Is it okay for you to come here?"

Gong Shaoyu retrieved his hand and sat down next to Ye Xinluo on the sofa.

"It’s fine."

Lan Shan also went over to the sofa and sat down, looking at Gong Shaoyu and asked, "Mr. Gong, did you come this time to look for Jingxi?"

"Yes." Gong Shaoyu responded.

"Do you have any way to find Jingxi?" Lan Shan asked anxiously. The child had been missing for a day, and her heart was nearly breaking from worry.

"Yes, Shaoyu, do you have any way to find Jingxi?"

"I came this time mainly to look for Jingxi, and also..."

Gong Shaoyu didn’t continue his sentence, just looked towards Ye Xinluo.

Lan Shan sat on one side, observing Gong Shaoyu’s every move with clarity.

If he thought of Jingxi only as a godchild, there would have been no need for him to come personally. He could easily have sent someone to investigate.

Yet here he was in person.

She turned her gaze back to Ye Xinluo.

It seemed that this man called Gong Shaoyu had feelings for Xinluo, or he wouldn’t have come all the way from America.

Previously, Xinluo told her that she only saw Gong Shaoyu as a brother. Now it seemed that Gong Shaoyu didn’t see Xinluo as a sister...

After sorting out her thoughts, she asked, "So, Mr. Gong, do you have any methods?"

Gong Shaoyu smiled, his smile as warm as a spring breeze, which also lifted others’ spirits.

"You can call me Brother Gong. No need to keep saying ’Mr. Gong.’ You’re Xinluo’s friend, so you’re naturally my friend too."

Lan Shan didn’t expect Gong Shaoyu to be so accommodating. Since he said that, she didn’t have much more to say.

"Brother Gong, how do you plan to find Jingxi?"

"This needs to be asked of Xinluo."

How did this relate to Xinluo? For a moment, she couldn’t understand what he meant.

Gong Shaoyu merely smiled and didn’t explain, but turned to look at Ye Xinluo and asked, "Xinluo, do you remember what that man from four years ago looked like?"

The atmosphere instantly quieted down, and for a moment, no one spoke.

Was Jingxi’s disappearance related to that man?

Seeing their reaction, Gong Shaoyu wasn’t too surprised and continued, "Have you thought that the child’s father might know about Jingxi’s existence?"

He didn’t want this to happen either, but under the current circumstances, he had to consider it.

Xinluo was protected around the clock, and he received daily reports about the mother and child’s situation.

They hadn’t been back long enough to make enemies, and even if it were a foe, it wouldn’t be possible for Jingxi to disappear without any news.

As Jingxi grew, Gong Shaoyu gradually noticed that Jingxi didn’t resemble Ye Xinluo much.

But it wasn’t hard to see Xinluo’s shadow in him.

Just from Jingxi’s appearance, Gong Shaoyu dared to assert that the child’s biological father was undoubtedly someone wealthy or powerful.

Yesterday afternoon, Housekeeper Ning called him to say Jingxi had been taken. Gong Shaoyu’s first thought was that the child’s father had found out.

Although he didn’t have much influence in Z city, he knew that taking a child in broad daylight without a trace could only mean the person was very powerful.

Considering the background, Gong Shaoyu had no choice but to reflect on this aspect.

"How does this relate to the child’s biological father?" Ye Xinluo was somewhat confused about how these two matters were connected.

"Yes, could it be a mistake?" Lan Shan echoed.

Gong Shaoyu knew they would disagree and wasn’t surprised they said so, "Xinluo has been abroad for years, making it unlikely she made enemies. Is there any other possibility besides this?

The incident back then happened in Z city; it’s not impossible for the child’s father to be in Z city too."

Gong Shaoyu’s words were like a bombshell, leaving Ye Xinluo momentarily unable to recover.

The past incident was a memory she didn’t want to revisit, but he seemed to make valid points.

Years ago, after getting drunk, she had a one-night stand with a stranger. The next morning, she didn’t even see that man.

Later, she became pregnant with Jingxi and fled abroad, never looking into who that man was.

So, it’s not impossible for that man to also be in Z city.

"Still, it can’t possibly be the child’s biological father, right? Moreover, Xinluo just got back; how could that man know so quickly?"

Lan Shan disagreed with his theory.

Even if he did investigate, it couldn’t have been so quick.

"Just seeing the child would make it clear. The child’s existence is the best evidence," Gong Shaoyu said, his lips barely moving as he calmly spoke.

He had a hunch that Jingxi likely resembled his father greatly.

"That..."

The words left Lan Shan speechless.

He was right; seeing the child would arouse suspicion. After all, there aren’t children who don’t resemble their parents.

Even the first time she saw Jingxi, she thought he looked familiar, as if she’d seen him somewhere before. What more for his biological father?

"Then, could you help me find out who that man is," Ye Xinluo said softly.

In the past, she would not have wanted to know who that man was, but now, she had no choice.

Lan Shan: "How would you investigate that?"

Holding Ye Xinluo’s hand, she asked, "Xinluo, do you really not remember what that man looked like?"

Ye Xinluo shook her head, unable to recall no matter how hard she tried.
