Translator: 549690339

Li Shengxiao had initially planned to take her to see the seaside night view, but seeing her like this, he decisively changed his decision, “Then let’s head home first!”

Although Rong Yan felt a bit sorry for Little Baby, Estelle’s half-finished phone call still made her unavoidably concerned. Instead of continuing to wander outside with a heavy heart, it was better to go back and figure out what was happening. After thinking it through, she nodded and said with a calm gaze, “I’ll call a taxi.”

She had intended to call Assistant Gu, but now there was no time.

Unexpectedly, Li Shengxiao didn’t object. He walked straight to the roadside, flagged down a taxi for her, opened the door, and told Rong Yan, “Get in.”

“…Okay.” Rong Yan hesitated for a moment, then picked up the tired Little Baby and sat in the back seat.

Li Shengxiao closed the door for them, then strode to the front, opened the passenger door, and followed them into the car.

“To Dihor Garden.”

The driver, who had been driving taxis for over ten years, had never encountered such an imposing passenger. It took him a full two seconds to snap back to reality before he immediately started the meter and said, “Alright, alright, Dihor Garden it is? I got it.”

The car smoothly headed towards Dihor Garden…

Rong Yan was lucky, they didn’t hit any red lights along the way, and without any obstructions, they arrived at Dihor Garden in less than half an hour.

On the journey, Rong Yan had checked her phone for news about herself, and sure enough, she saw a glaring headline amidst the trending news—”Explosive, Rising Star Rong Yan Secretly Bears Child, Already Has Illegitimate Child!”

It was a social media account that had released the story, and they described it with such detail, as if they had seen Duidui in person, and even insolently claimed they weren’t afraid of being sued to add credibility.

The news had broken out in the morning, and after a day of fermentation, now quite a few bystanders were saying that Rong Weiwei had been wronged previously. It was Rong Yan who had been cheating and got pregnant, giving birth to an illegitimate child she couldn’t show in public. They even twisted the narrative, unjustly labelling Rong Weiwei as the homewrecker.

They spoke as if Rong Yan having Little Baby proved that Rong Weiwei hadn’t pretended to be a phony girl or been the ‘other woman’ at the time.

Upon arrival at home,

Rong Yan first returned to her room, took out her phone, and returned Estelle’s call, “Hello.”

“Are you back?”

“Yes, I just got home.” Rong Yan didn’t waste time and went straight to the point, “Estelle, I saw the news online. Are you calling me about this issue?”

“Yes. I tried calling you twice this morning but couldn’t get through. Since I couldn’t reach you, I haven’t yet responded to the matter. The media is highly attentive now, and several reporters have called to schedule an interview with you. How do you want to respond?”

Estelle didn’t mention sending a cease and desist letter but instead asked how she wanted to respond, effectively guessing Duidui’s identity.

Rong Yan wasn’t particularly surprised, considering Estelle had met Duidui the last time. She pursed her lips and narrowed her eyes, giving an unexpected answer, “I don’t want to respond to this matter.”

“What?” Estelle was clearly surprised, “Not responding could lead to more negative comments from outsiders, which would be highly detrimental to you. The latest episode of your show is about to be broadcast, and this time it’s the first elimination round. Although you advanced on merit, it’s a critical moment for the episode to air. There will be noise claiming that you progressed by unfair means. Moreover, the next several episodes will be live, showing your competition, and real-time online voting will affect the final outcome!”

“Rong Yan, not responding is definitely the worst choice now!”
