A cold glint flashed in Guan Weiyun's eyes, his fists clenched, wishing he could punch the arrogant face in front of him.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
"President Tang, the young lady insists on seeing you. We couldn't stop her."
"Let them in."
The three men's eyes lit up simultaneously. Could it be Xu Qian?
Tang Zhishen's dark eyes flickered, and a smile of unknown meaning played on his lips.
The door opened, and a middle-aged nanny walked in, holding a female infant. The baby wriggled in her arms, not stopping for a moment.
The three men were dumbfounded. A child?
Tang Zhishen took the infant, and she immediately sat contentedly in his arms, perfectly still, a stark contrast to her earlier playful demeanor.
Tang Zhishen ate and slept with Tang Xin. Except when work was too busy and he had to hand her over to the nanny for a few hours, he personally took care of her most of the time, which is why Tang Xin was very attached to her father.
Mei Yuebai subconsciously furrowed her brow, a sudden sense of foreboding washing over her.
His gaze swept over the infant's face.
Suddenly, Mei Yuebai's whole body trembled. White skin, dark eyes, a small nose, and a small mouth. She was beautiful.
But... why did she look exactly like Xu Qian?
Xiang Jintian's expression changed slightly; he had clearly noticed it too.
Guan Weiyun's body shot up as if he were struck, and he rushed to the front of the two men, his face flushed with excitement, his fingertips trembling.
"How old is she?"
Tang Zhishen hadn't expected him to be so agitated.
"A little over six months."
Guan Weiyun's mind was in chaos. Over six months old, pregnant for three months... wouldn't that mean she was his child?!
How could Xu Qian have secretly given birth to his child?
Mei Yuebai and Xiang Jintian exchanged a look, their faces filled with surprise.
They had been wild during that time; it was possible...
Mei Yuebai stood up, about to ask, but was firmly held back by Xiang Jintian.
Something was wrong. Given Xu Qian's personality, if she wanted to have a child, she would have told them. Moreover, they hadn't used any protection.
Xu Qian had no reason to secretly get vaccinated; all she had to do was say the word, and they would have complied.
Therefore, this child was very likely not theirs, and perhaps not even theirs.
Xiang Jintian's thoughts were meticulous. He could almost guess that this child...
Was likely an accident.
Would Xu Qian give birth at this point to tie him down?
Unlikely.
Being threatened was more probable.
But, with Xu Qian's personality, she would never stay with someone who threatened her.
Tang Zhishen was unlikely, so... who was this child's father?
Guan Weiyun suppressed the urge to touch the child and asked in a low voice, "When is Xu Qian coming back?"
He wanted to personally confirm if this child was hers.
Tang Zhishen raised an eyebrow, completely guessing his thoughts.
"Ah Qian is very busy and might not have time. If you want to confirm something, you can tell me."
Guan Weiyun pressed his temples. How could he confirm it with him?
"The child is not yours."
Before he could ask, Tang Zhishen spoke first.
The three men stiffened. Guan Weiyun's face turned even uglier, and he asked coldly, "Then who is her father?"
"Me. I am her father."
Tang Zhishen's eyebrows arched, his face full of smugness.
He hadn't missed the stunned expressions on the faces of the two men opposite him. They must be heartbroken.
Guan Weiyun's fists trembled, veins bulging.
If he didn't have the child in his arms, he would have punched him long ago.
Xiang Jintian's expression was calm, his hand tightly gripping Mei Yuebai, who was about to jump up.
The child's father was definitely not Tang Zhishen.
Xiang Jintian paused for a moment, then said, "President Tang, we'd like to stay the night. Is that possible?"
"Of course, you are welcome."
Tang Zhishen was unwilling internally, but he had to say welcome. He couldn't possibly say that the vast Tang Corporation base couldn't accommodate these few people.
Rather than speculating, it was better to wait for Qian Qian to return and ask her properly. Otherwise, even if they returned to the Bright Base, their hearts would still be uneasy.
Guan Weiyun took a deep breath to calm himself. He turned and sat down, saying coldly, "I want to stay the night too."
