Chapter 293: Stay Clear


Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio


Looking at his wife’s pitiful face, Ling Tao felt sorry for her. Before they left, Madam Ling brought up the child from six years ago and Qu Wan was already depressed at that time. They were taken to a terrifying torture chamber, facing a row of bloodied people. One of them as the Ling Family lawyer. No matter who was thrown into the situation, they would not be able to withstand such a blow.


Even as dull as he was, Ling Tao definitely heard the word “kidnap” from Ling Tianya’s mouth. He was shocked and looked at Ling Tianya. “Yaya, what did you say? You were kidnapped?”


“Yes.”


“Who kidnapped you?!” Ling Tao’s vision turned red, and he turned to look at Mr. Bai again, who was kneeling on the ground. He seemed to understand something. He walked to Mr. Bai and asked in a shaking voice. “You kidnapped my daughter?”


Mr. Bai looked at Ling Tao with his dead eyes and did not deny it.


Mr. Bai’s silent admission baffled Ling Tao and he didn’t want to accept the reality. Mr. Bai was his most trusted a.s.sociate; how could he kidnap his daughter?!


Ling Tao finally understood why Ruan Zeyan had Mr. Bai tied up there.


“Why did you do this? What have I done wrong by you that made you want to kidnap my only daughter?!” Ling Tao was getting emotional.


Mr. Bai ignored Ling Tao’s questions and his eyes were fixated on Qu Wan. After a while, he finally asked in a low voice, “Who was the father of that child?”


Qu Wan’s pupils suddenly dilated. She did not expect Mr. Bai to ask that question. When she first saw Mr. Bai, Qu Wan knew that things had failed, but she was still thinking that maybe Mr. Bai would take into account the history between the two of them and would not give her up.


When push came to shove, even if Mr. Bai gave her up, all she needed to do was to insist on her innocence and stick to her story; no one could do anything to her. After all, it was Mr. Bai who kidnapped Ling Tianya. She had been home the whole time and had never gone anywhere.


No one would think that just when Qu Wan decided to deny everything to the end, Mr. Bai would actually ask such a question.


Qu Wan looked at Ling Tao, stumbling back a few steps. She bit down on her lip and looked completely fl.u.s.tered.


“Answer me! The child you miscarried six years ago, who was its father?!” Mr. Bai shouted hoa.r.s.ely. His body was firmly tied up and all his emotions made him move around too much and caused the rope to cut into the wound on his shoulder. Blood poured out instantly.


Qu Wan was frightened by Mr. Bai’s hysterics. She was tripped by her own foot and fell to the ground.


“What child?” Ling Tao asked, his eyes switching back and forth between Mr. Bai and Qu Wan. “What child are you talking about? Six years ago, the child in Qu Wan’s belly was mine!”


When he heard Ling Tao at that moment still swearing that the child was his, Mr. Bai looked at Ling Tao with pity in his eyes and let out a laugh. “Dear Mr. Ling, I feel so sorry for you!”


Mr. Bai’s words startled Ling Tao. Was that child not his after all?


Mr. Bai’s eyes were full of hatred as they locked onto Qu Wan. “Why did you lie to me? Why did you use me? Six years ago, the child was clearly the product of your affair with Huang Dawei. Why did you tell me that it was mine? Qu Wan, you vicious and greedy woman, you used me to do all those bad things for you and now you want to act innocent?”
