The secretary tacitly closed the door and stood on guard outside the door. She had no doubt that there would be people who wanted to look for President Lu. However, it would not be convenient for anyone to see him at this moment.
Lu Xun gradually felt at ease as Song Xing Xing's scent entered his nose. He raised his hand to hug her. But his movement halted a while later. Lu Xun was feeling guilty after what had happened today.
It seemed that his past relationship had always haunted him back. He did not know how many times he had hurt his wife because of this matter.
He felt as if he did not deserve to be with someone like Song Xing Xing.
Her family was very protective of her. Lu Xun did not know how they will react this time. Would they ask him to leave her?
The last time they ran into Shi An Na's parents and this child, he had told her that he never had a child. Back then, Song Xing Xing had believed him.
However, this time, that child had run to him and called him daddy.
Lu Xun was worried that his wife would believe the child's words just like everybody else.
Song Xing Xing quickly realized that something did not seem to be right with her husband. Usually, he would return her hug without any hesitation.
Her embrace loosened and Song Xing Xing raised her head to meet his gaze. "I saw the news." Song Xing Xing rubbed his arms with her thumbs. "Hubby, are you alright?"
The word, 'Hubby' finally snapped him out of his trance. His eyes flickered upon seeing the concern in her eyes.
With one glance, he could tell that she did not blame him. Instead, this girl was really worried about his well-being.
The heavy feeling in his heart slowly disappeared.
Lu Xun leaned over and rested his head on her neck. He took a deep breath and inhaled her familiar scent. "Xing Xing, I'm sorry. I continuously let you involved with my matter."
"You don't have anything to apologize for," Song Xing Xing said. Her arms wrapped around his body and her hand moved along his spine as she tried to comfort him. "This is not your fault. That woman must have wanted to play some tricks again."
Lu Xun pursed his lips into a thin line. He wanted to say something but could not find any words to say.
"I trust you," Song Xing Xing said. "Lu Xun, whatever happened, I will always be with you."
He continued to bury his face in her neck. "Xing Xing, that boy isn't mine."
"Un. I know."
"I don't know what Shi An Na is planning but you have to believe me. Don't listen to the netizen's nonsense."
"I know. I believe you. That boy did not look anything like you. How can it be your child?" Song Xing Xing continued to coax him. "We'll figure out what to do together. We will go through this together, alright?"
Lu Xun gave a weak nod. A few seconds later, he began to hesitate again. "What about your family?"
"Don't worry about my family. I already talked to my mom and dad before coming over. They too were worried about you and wanted us to keep things updated."
Of course, Song Xing Xing did not mention how her family members, especially her father and her brother, were furious upon hearing this scandal.
She had to spend a long time convincing them that the child was not his. Someone was trying to set her husband up with this scandal and wanted to ruin their relationship.
Anyway, she was now his wife. There was no way that she would leave him for something like this. She had already made her decision to trust Lu Xun's words.
She trusted her husband. Even if her family did not trust him, they should trust her judgement.
In the end, her family members were unable to say anything. They could only sit back and watch as the couple resolve this matter.
"What are your plans?" Song Xing Xing asked. "Is there anything I can do to help? My cousin brother and sister-in-law said they can help you to investigate as well."
Lu Xun knew that his wife was trying to change the topic and decided to worry about her family later. The most important thing is to clear his name.
"At this time, the police is still looking after Shi An Na," Lu Xun said. "The police had taken mine and that boy's DNA to investigate. It is the quickest way to deny the circulating rumors."
Song Xing Xing nodded. A breath of relief escaped her. Fortunately, her husband was still sensible enough to think and figure out what needed to be done. Earlier, she was a little worried that this matter was going to make him lose his mind.
His ex had repeatedly tried to set him up. They had thought that after the last time, Shi An Na would not be able to do anything to them. They did not think that Shi An Na would use her son to ruin Lu Xun.
"Long Fei is helping me to suppress the rumors online," Lu Xun said. "And I heard that Shi An Na's husband is on his way to Capital City."
Song Xing Xing recalled seeing that man during her visit to C Country a few months ago. "Hopefully, he could help us to explain this matter to the public as well."
"Mhm..."
After running into that man in C Country the last time, Lu Xun already knew that the man no longer cared about Shi An Na. However, it could not be said about their son.
The couple continued to stay in the meeting room, resting in each other's embrace. Seeing that her husband's look had returned to normal, Song Xing Xing gave him an assuring smile.
"Are you feeling alright now?" Song Xing Xing asked. Her hand rested on his cheek gently.
"I'm fine." He took her hand in his and kissed her on the back of her hand.
"What happened to that boy?"
"I left him in the police's custody."
Song Xing Xing pursed her lips into a thin line before she spoke again.. "I want to meet him."
