TFSC Ran Off With The Bun: Chapter 138


The Female Supporting Character Ran Off With The Bun 

Chapter 138

——————————————  


The melodious sound of a bell rang in the cramped room for more than ten seconds. Shu Bai finally summoned up the courage and glanced timidly at the caller's name.

Tong Jiashu’s name flashed on the screen and she breathed a long sigh of relief.

After sending the text message, Shu Bai was so nervous that her hands and feet were cold and her whole body shook hard. She threw away her phone as if afraid to take a look— she was afraid that Lu Jingyan would call in the next second, question, expose and punish her. Although, despite the tension there is anticipation.

Just like how she was as a student seeing the result of her grades after an exam. Although she was anxious, the hope in her heart wanted a good result.

Shu Bai picked up the phone and heard Tong Jiashu's voice, “Bai Bai, what are you busy with?"

Shu Bai's teeth were chattering when she said, "No, nothing ... I'm not busy ..."

Tong Jiashu heard something wrong from the sound of her voice. She asked directly, “What happened? You sound so nervous?"

Shu Bai bit her lip and uttered, “I’m okay."

She was annoyed at her nervousness. She composed herself and tried to keep her voice steady, "You called ... is there anything you want?"

Tong Jiashu was irritated by Shu Bai's rude response and the volume of her voice became a little louder, "Can't you at least call if you have nothing to do?"

"Well, that's not what I meant."

"Okay, I have something to tell you, so I won’t be polite and just say it," Jiashu said in a rush.

"Well."

"Bai Bai, you’ve don’t it with President Lu. Do you think he was experienced?"

"Ah?" Shu Bai did not expect the topic to poke at the sore spot in her heart.

"I thought Mr. Lu was a very dedicated person."

Tong Jiashu seemed to have something more to say, but Shu Bai's soft and glutinous voice interrupted her, "Why do you say that ..."

Tong Jiashu seemed to ignore her question and continued to ask, " Is it possible that Mr. Lu had something unspeakable with Chi Ying five years ago?"

A strong uneasiness condensed in Shu Bai's heart, she said tremblingly, "Ah? did you find anything?"

"I saw a child today who is extremely similar to Mr. Lu and the kid's surname is 'Chi'. Plus Chi Ying suddenly disappeared just after the dinner party five years ago. I think... there too many coincidences?"

"Is everything you said true?"

"It's true. Yes, I'll send you the photo later "

After a pause, Tong Jiashu seemed to think that she was too sure and added, "Oh...it's also possible that I'm thinking too much as you know that I have a lot of brainpower every day, but my intuition was this."

"..."

Shu Bai said in a panic, “Jiashu, I still have something to do, I'll talk to you later."

Before she finished speaking, she hurriedly hung up the phone and immediately turned airplane mode on. Her dull eyes were fixed on the phone she looked around the dim room and the light on the screen seemed harsh.

Shu Bai's first thought was to withdraw the text message. Her mind went blank, she felt that there was a chance of life. Shu Bai quickly turned off the airplane mode with lightning speed and entered a question in Baidu.

 After browsing through several answers, she felt bitter in her heart. It was just a fantasy.

When Shu Bai was about to switch back to flight mode, the phone suddenly vibrated.

She shivered and her phone almost fell to the ground.

Even though Tong Jiashu complained that Shu Bai had suddenly hung up in the middle of their conversation and was annoyed she made remarks about being okay but then used the excuse of being busy the next second. She still sent Shu Bai a photo of Chi Cheng.

Shu Bai was stunned. The photo was taken secretly and it was a little blurry, but it could still be seen that it was a very delicate and beautiful child.

From a distance, his back was straight, his short hair soft and slightly curly. His dark eyes were as bright as agate stones, his nose was straight and his lips were thin.

Ordinary people may not associate him with Lu Jingyan, because his face is chubby and soft.

But if you look closely, you can vaguely discern the outline of the lower jaw from the fat little face. When he grows up, signs of arrogant and fierce face would appear. It's like a child's version of Lu Jingyan. She suddenly could understand Tong Jiashu's confusion.

Anyone who discovers this news will be shocked like her. While Shu Bai comforted himself "Don't Panic ", she turned off the phone.

She just entered his room by accident and it was an accident, not intentional. Lu Jingyan probably wouldn't blame her.

What's more, Senior Sister Chi Ying refused strongly she was that woman. Lu Jingyan may not know the existence of this child and he is the evidence of their night of passion...

The news was a big deal and she wants to change her phone number. Lu Jingyan probably won't investigate who she is and she could only shrink her head like a turtle.

There are so many people named "Shu Bai.” As she thought about it, there was a loud knock on the door of the living room.

 

"Bang, bang, bang— "

A loud sound like a storm slammed into the inferior wooden door and smashed into her vulnerable heart.

The debt collectors were here again. She thought she did such a good job of concealing the shelter … This means that she has to move out again.

Shu Bai closed her eyes silently, letting the tears fall down her cheeks. She lost all her strength and courage to struggle after crying so much

 When Chi Ying came home, the living room was silent.  There was no childish voice calling her “mother " nor a warm and soft hug. Her heart felt empty as if the night wind is pouring into it.

Chi Ying frowned lightly and asked her mother, "Mom, where is Chengcheng, why isn’t he at home ?"

Mother Chi took calmly said, "He went to his classmate's house to play and he hasn't come back yet. It's getting late, and I'm about to pick him up."

"Classmate? Is that Yueyue?"

"Yes."

After hearing Mother Chi's affirmative answer, Chi Ying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Chi Cheng has been to Yueyue's house, so he should be more at ease than other classmates' houses.

"You’ve worked hard Mom, " she said.

When Mother Chi left, she didn't forget to glance at the bag in Chi Ying's palm. It was a luxury children's clothing brand.

She said, " Ying Ying, you bought so many clothes for Chi Cheng again."

Chi Ying shook her head and answered, "It was given by a friend ."

Mother Chi raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Did you tell your friend about Chi Cheng?"

"No, it was the director who met Chi Cheng at the mall last time. He ... guessed it ."

Mother Chi gave her a meaningful look and said, "Yingying, your life still has a long way to go. If you meet the right person, don't be stubborn anymore."

 

○◦◦○◦◦○◦◦○


Tong Jiashu sent Chi Cheng downstairs. Chi Cheng bounced towards Mother Chi’s side in an instant, and sweetly shouted, "Grandma ."

 The child's voice cut through the night and it was pleasant to the ears.

Tong Jiashu smiled and asked, "Are you Cheng Cheng's grandmother? Hello, I'm Yueyue's mother. " As she spoke, she looked at Mother Chi seriously.

 There was grace and dignity all over her.

"Well." Mother Chi looked back with the same sharp eyes, "I haven't seen you before."

Tong Jiashu explained in a brisk tone, "Because of work, it was Yueyue’s godmother who has been taking ."

"If you have time, spend more time with the child." Mother Chi said, holding Chi Cheng's little hand and prepared to leave.

Tong Jiashu still had a smile on her face, "I was forced by work ."

Mother Chi was thoughtful, she glanced at the villa lightly and had not seen Yueyue's father yet.  Mother Chi couldn't help frowning.

“It's not the kind of job you imagined." Tong Jiashu guessed Mother Chi's thoughts and added, " I am an actor of the eighteenth line."

Then, Tong Jiashu blew a kiss on Chi Cheng and said warmly, "Chengcheng, come over again to play  with Yueyue when you have time "

 Chi Cheng raised his mouth and frowned, but he did not speak. He silently pulled his grandmother's little finger and went home.

It was ten o'clock in the evening when Lu Jingyan finished his meeting. His tall and straight figure strode out of the conference room still in his suit and leather shoes.

Jiang Chong followed closely as Lu Jingyan hurried back to the office. It was late and he was eager to say good night to Chi Ying.

When he turned on his phone,  he saw a multimedia message from an unfamiliar number.

In the picture is a familiar scene deep in his memory, which suddenly startled him. After seeing the message in the picture, Lu Jingyan was completely stunned and his eyebrows furrowed deeply.

After a while, he called back the unfamiliar number but a mechanical tone prompted disconnection.

His eyes were filled with incomprehension.
