Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 725 So I Borrowed a Sperm or Two

The little man finally cast a glance at Shangguan Yanqiu, even saying thanks when she handed the heated milk to him.

He also exercised self-restraint as he took bites out of the cake. Come to think of it, he must be hungry. Otherwise, with that character of his, the boy would not accept any food and beverage offered to him.

Shangguan Yanqiu had no idea how long the little guy had gone without a meal. Despite being so young, he did not express any craving. The boy was too well-behaved for his own good.

The boy drank a sip of milk after each mouthful of cake. Shen Xi would also feed him a piece of fruit every now and then, to which he did not turn down. He would express his gratitude every time he accepted the fruit.

Shen Xi wanted to tell him to quit the formalities. Although young, the child demonstrated extreme vigilance and responsibility, always keeping an eye out for his sister like a little grown-up. Her heart went out to him.

It did not take long before Fu Qingli and Lu Li came into the living room.

Surprise slipped past Lu Li’s eyes when she saw her son drinking milk and eating the fruit out of the hand of a beautiful girl seated right next to him.

Her son had always been an oddball, paying no mind to anyone except her and Guoguo, much less accepting food from strangers.

Lu Li had assumed that the girl was Fu Qingli’s girlfriend. However, the man, sitting next to the beautiful girl, had adoration written all over his eyes. It seemed Lu Li had gotten it wrong. The girl was not Fu Qingli’s girlfriend but that attractive man’s instead.

There were a lot of people in the family, spread out in the living room. Since no introduction was made, Lu Li had no clue who was who, but they all seemed related one way or another.

“Mommy.” The girl, who was fooling around with Toffeecito, exclaimed in thrill. Taking notice of Lu Li, the girl ran over with rosy cheeks after a well-spent time of fun.

Lu Li looked to her daughter and the young man who kept her daughter company. With the young man turning his attention to her, Lu Li gave him a nod. She did not know who he was, but judging by the age, the young man was possibly Fu Qingli’s younger brother. Out of everyone in the room, Lu Li only recognized Fu Qingye. Fu Qingye was a recognizable face since he was an international movie star after all. His poster was everywhere. Fu Qingye was good-looking and carried an air of elegance to himself. He was arguably one of the most attractive men in showbiz.

Nevertheless, any one of the young men in the living room would make it huge in showbiz. Their looks alone were stunning, especially that man seated next to the beautiful girl, who had more profound facial features than Fu Qingli. With the pair emerging in the living room, the group that had been waiting first turned to Fu Qingli. They wanted to know what was discussed and the arrangement thereafter.

Fu Qingli put on a deadpan face with his eyes unreadable of emotions as he stared at Lu Li. “I’ll drive you back.”

“It’s fine. Thank you.” Lu Li watched her son drink the last bit of milk before beckoning him. She then turned to call the other child. “Guoguo, it’s time to go home.”

Lu Guoguo responded to her mother as she reluctantly returned the fish to Fu Qingxuan. She glanced at Toffeecito and waved her hand. “Goodbye.”

The girl toddled her way to Lu Li’s side before lifting her head to glance at Fu Qingli. Afraid Fu Qingli might notice, Lu Guoguo averted her gaze after a quick look. Shangguan Yanqiu was dying to find out what was said and the arrangement regarding the children and the adults. However, she knew it was not her place to come in between them.

Fu Handing held Shangguan Yanqiu’s hand. No matter what, the Fu family should respect the other party’s wishes. Since it was their son’s fault, he should be the one to assume the responsibility. It did not matter what the situation was then because it had already happened. Fu Qingli should shoulder the consequences.

Lu Li waited until her babies drew close before smiling politely, albeit indifferently at the group. “Sorry to bother you. We should get going.” “Goodbye.” The girl waved her little arm at everyone.

Still, there was not a peep from the other child, but he gave Fu Qingli a probing and questioning look as if to discern if his mommy was bullied.

Shen Xi intended to jump in to say it was snowing heavily outside. The kids would be freezing in the cold if they rode the motorbike.

However, Shen Xi shut her trap once she saw the SUV parked in the driveway.

Someone was slouching against the SUV while smoking a cigarette. The face of the handsome and languid guy became visible under the dimly lit street light. With people coming out of the house, the man put out the cigarette and propped open a black umbrella as he took strides forward.

“Uncle Jingyan.” With sparkling and smiley eyes, the girl happily screamed before running toward the man. Su Jingyan picked up the girl as he offhandedly swept a glance at the crowd. In the end, his gaze fell on Li Yuan. Su Jingyan gave a nod. “Mr. Li.”

F*ck!

Who did Lu Li get involved with? Li Yuan was there, so was Fu Qingye. Were her children Li Yuan’s or Fu Qingye’s?

That was not right.

After his gaze lingered on Fu Qingli, Su Jingyan cursed under his breath. That was the man! That face and godd*mn bearing were identical to Lu Zhen, the boy!

“Mr. Su.” Li Yuan nodded in return. Shen Xi squeezed Li Yuan’s hand while stealing a glance at Fu Qingli. The latter was giving the man in front the iciest stare ever.

“We’re good. We can see ourselves out.” Lu Li courteously smiled as she took her son’s hand and walked to Su Jingyan. “Let’s go.”

While holding the umbrella over her, Su Jingyan could feel the looks of daggers cutting his back, giving him shivers all over.

Holy sh*t!

Lu Li’s Baby Daddy!

It was only a one-night stand. Fu Qingli was a sperm donor, and it was not like Lu Li was making him father the children or asking him for her share of the inheritance. What did he care about?

A rage of fire was burning in Fu Qingli’s stone-cold eyes. His heart sank to the pit of his stomach as he watched the woman and their children leave with another guy.

The woman’s nonchalant yet taunting voice rang in his ear. “So, I borrowed a sperm or two. For you to mind it that much, are you hung up about children that my egg and your sperms made? I can lend two eggs to you for free. With today’s technology, you’d have no problem getting an artificial or surrogate mother to give you children.”

The car soon disappeared out of sight.

Shangguan Yanqiu approached Fu Qingli and asked, “Qingli, what did you say to Ms. Lu?”

The two children were the Fu family’s flesh and blood. The Fu family could let it be if they did not know about it, but now that they found out, a perfect solution had to be laid out for the benefit of everyone.
