After Fang Lanxin asked this question, she reached out to pluck the child out of Mo Heng’s arms. She wanted to kiss and dote on it.
Right from the start, that little glutinous rice dumpling had been staring at her with her head tilted to the side. However, the moment Fang Lanxin reached toward her, the little dumpling whipped her head back and clung tighter onto Mo Heng’s neck. She buried herself in his arms and whined incessantly, “Gege [1] … I’m Gege’s…”
This made Fang Lanxin seem like an old witch who kidnapped children, just like the ones in the storybooks.
Fang Lanxin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She gently pinched Tangtang’s plump bottom. “This little kid can even recognize people?”
At the same time, she was flabbergasted. Since when was Mo Heng able to get along with children?
Once, when she had brought the child of Mo Heng’s cousin over to visit him on set, Mo Heng had absolutely hated the little devil. He spanked that chap on his bottom, and even threatened her not to bring the child to see him again!
Mo Heng replied, “Mom, you don’t have to question who this child belongs to. I brought her over in the hope that you’d do me a favor.”
“Favor?” Fang Lanxin glanced suspiciously at Mo Heng.
Mo Heng had had a crabby temper ever since his childhood days. He was an exact copy of his father and would never bow down to anyone.
Back then, he had gotten into a huge fight with his father and had eventually left home. He made a solemn vow that he would never concede and return home, even if that meant starving to death.
Was this really their son?
Mo Heng had spent a long time outside the door preparing what he would say so he wouldn’t have such a hard time vocalizing his request. “Mom, help me create an identity for Tangtang. Let her be your and dad’s child.”
Fang Lanxin was extremely shocked!!
“Absolutely disgraceful—” A loud shout came from upstairs, causing Tangtan to shrink into a little frightened ball in Mo Heng’s arms.
Tangtang poked her head out to take a look. She saw a middle-aged man walk out of the study on the second floor. He appeared extremely stern, and the expression on his face was as icy as a refrigerator. He was just like her Royal Father.
Tangtang’s little eyebrows furrowed. She realized that the situation was complicated.
Back home, she was mischievous, and whenever she did something naughty, her Royal Father would be as fierce as this man.
Although she didn’t understand what Mo Heng had told Fang Lanxin just now, Tangtang really didn’t want Mo Heng to get scolded.
Mo Qishan walked towards the railing on the second floor. Pointing to Mo Heng, he sneered coldly and sarcastically, “You haven’t been back home in 10 years. I truly thought you had a moral backbone and didn’t need to depend on the Mo Family! What happened? You’ve finished playing? So you come back here with a virtuous look plastered on your face and beg me to add your illegitimate child to the family registry? Are you really so shameless that you would ruin our reputation?”
Mo Qishan smirked sarcastically. “Mo Heng, you’re truly Mo Qishan’s good son!”
Tangtang noticed Mo Heng’s gloomy face. His hand that was supporting her bottom was clenched into a fist, his veins bulging under the skin.
Big Brother Mo Heng was angry!
Fang Lanxin had been busy with a news conference in the afternoon and had yet to find out about what was being said about her son on the internet. At this point, she hastily chastised her husband. “Qishan, what are you saying? Mo Heng has finally paid a visit after 10 years. Don’t scare him away…”
Mo Heng was not about to be scared away just yet. Plus, he still had his pride. “Dad, it’s not what you think! Anyway, I’ll explain everything to you later on. This favor…”
If it wasn’t for the sake of the little kid in his arms, he would never have involved the Mo Family.
Before he revealed Tangtang to the public, he needed to sort out her identity.
Tangtang grasped Mo Heng’s clothes. When she heard Mo Heng’s inner thoughts, she was struck by a sudden realization.
Big Brother Mo Heng was bearing the brunt of his Royal Father’s wrath for her sake!
Tangtang couldn’t bring herself to just sit back and watch. She couldn’t let Big Brother Mo Heng be wronged or scolded!
After brooding over this, Tangtang imitated Mo Heng and abruptly greeted Mo Qishan. “Baba…”
The two men, who were in the middle of an intense confrontation, were both shocked. They simultaneously glanced at Tangtang when they heard her childish voice.
Tangtang wiggled her legs with all her might in an attempt to hop out of Mo Heng’s arms.
Mo Heng could only squat and set her down.
The little kiddo, who was donned in a fairy dress, turned her head to glance at Mo Heng before making tiny strides with her stocky legs. Staggering and stumbling, she tottered towards the staircase.
[1] “Gege” sounds like Big Brother in Chinese.
