After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage

Chapter 119: Chapter 119 Seaside Resort

Ning Yichu almost thought she had reached the fourth floor and was about to walk out when she realized it was only the second floor and stopped in her tracks.

But the very next second, she bumped right into Granny Li, who was coming her way!

Granny is here too?

“Granny, what a coincidence…” Ning Yichu greeted her, her gaze slowly dropping to the documents in her hand.

There were many types of tests at the Biological Identification Center, so Ning Yichu didn’t think much of it, considering the large Li family; it seemed normal to have some sort of need.

What Granny Li hadn’t expected was to run into Ning Yichu here, and flustered like a guilty thief, her hands and feet became clumsy and the documents dropped to the ground, sliding right over to Ning Yichu’s feet!

Ning Yichu instinctively bent down to pick up the documents for Granny Li.

“Don’t move! I’ll do it myself!” Granny Li yelled, her neck flushing with agitation as she hurriedly bent down to gather the papers.

But Ning Yichu’s hand had already touched the first page of the document…

The startling, bold words at the top immediately caught her eye!

Paternity test report…

In the shock of the moment, Granny Li snatched the documents back like she was grasping at something scandalous and hid it behind her, breathlessly and awkwardly saying, “Well, Chu Chu, what a coincidence you’re at the identification center too…”

“Yes… yes, I am.” Ning Yichu had yet to recover from the scene she’d just witnessed, then quickly added, “I’m picking up a test report for a friend, she’s a celebrity and it’s a bit inconvenient for her.”

“Oh, so am I, picking up a report for someone else.” Afraid that Ning Yichu wouldn’t believe her, Granny Li even overdid it by adding, “He couldn’t come in person.”

Ning Yichu, “…”

That report was clearly about Li Lingyang and Ningning’s, and Granny’s skill at lying had reached new heights!

However, judging from her expression of unspeakable thoughts, she probably believed that report.

That was just as well, she had already lost Chen Bao and couldn’t afford to lose Ningning as well.

“Then Granny, I’ll head upstairs now…” Ning Yichu gestured towards the upper floors.

Granny Li hurriedly stepped back into the elevator with the documents, watching the doors close and then vanish from sight.

“Goodness gracious!” It wasn’t until Ning Yichu had left that Granny Li let out a long breath of relief and turned to Aunt Tong, “I was scared to death just now. Chu Chu didn’t see the details of the report, did she?”

Aunt Tong felt certain that Lady Ning had seen them, but to comfort Granny Li, she lied, “Definitely not. If she had seen it, and knew we were still investigating Miss Ning’s background in private, wouldn’t she be livid with us?”

“That’s good… I don’t want to damage my relationship with Chu Chu over these nonsense matters,” Granny Li patted her chest and said.

Aunt Tong offered a compensatory smile while thinking to herself, with President Li in between, there was an insurmountable chasm.

…

After Ning Yichu received the report, she confirmed that Li Lingyang had sent a blood sample for comparison.

As for where he got Ningning’s blood sample, she had no idea.

Ningning had leukemia as a child and had undergone a bone marrow transplant.

It was an unexpected turn of fate that this had inadvertently aided her.

She deliberately stayed at the identification center a bit longer to avoid running into Granny Li again.

As a result, she arrived back at the company a little later than intended.

Just as she got to the company, she heard Xiao Ai excitedly run over saying, “Sister Ning, did you hear? The administration department has notified us that we are seriously overworking lately, so this weekend the design department is organizing a team-building activity at Seaside Resort! I heard there’s a vast expanse of incredibly blue sea, and they specifically told us we could bring swimsuits…”

The Seaside Resort, Ning Yichu knew, was a very upscale resort in Imperial City, she never would have imagined that Beiji’s team-building would be held there!

The extravagance was real.

“Sister Ning, have you signed up? The administration department is collecting names for accommodation arrangements.”

Ning Yichu shook her head, “I’m still deciding whether to go or not.”

“Come on, it’s such a high-end resort, it’s a waste not to go! And I heard, Mr. Mo is going too, haha…” Xiao Ai held her cheeks, speaking with a lovestruck expression.

A weight sank in Ning Yichu’s heart, Mo Baiyou was going too? That really made her consider the possibility of not going.

“I have to take care of the kids on the weekend…”

“What’s the issue? Just bring the kids along, the company said, the design department has been very productive lately, and family members are allowed for the team-building activity!” Xiao Ai winked and danced with excitement, “But I guess many female designers in the company won’t bring their boyfriends, because if they do, any chance for intimate contact with Mr. Mo would be complicated, right?”

Ning Yichu felt embarrassed; Xiao Ai, who had recently graduated, saw everything with such energy, though sometimes she tended to over-fantasize!

“I’ll think about it and reply to the administration department tonight.”

She needed to discuss it with the kids…

That evening, the moment Ning Yichu mentioned the prospect of going to Seaside Resort to Ningning, the girl nearly bounced off the couch in excitement.

“Let’s go, let’s go, there’s also the beach! I want to wear my beautiful swimsuit and be the prettiest kid on the beach.”

Maybe the little one hadn’t been to a big event in a while; the mere mention of the resort got her so revved up.

Cautiously, Ning Yichu hinted, “It’s a Beiji reunion, I’m worried it might be too crowded for you…”

“Beiji, wow, so Mo Shuai will be there too?” Ningning asked with sparkling eyes.

Ning Yichu hummed in affirmation, “Do you like him a lot?”

“Of course, he’s the second man to make my heart beat so fast! So handsome, and his hands are really nice too…”

Ning Yichu felt a surge of exasperation, “Who’s the first man?”

“Obviously, my dearest brother.”

Ning Yichu chuckled with relief. Thankfully it was not Li Lingyang, otherwise, she would have been truly frustrated.

Seeing the little one so excited, she couldn’t bear to dampen her spirits.

After confirming with the administration department that family members were allowed and that the event would be easygoing, she signed up.

Truthfully, it had been a while since she’d taken part in such group activities; in Europe, everything had been very private.

Meanwhile, Shen Jiangqing met Shen Jun at a coffee shop in secret.

Shen Jun handed her a packet of white, fine powder with a sleazy smile, as if he’d used this kind of thing countless times before.

“This stuff is potent, enough to knock out an elephant. It’s simple to use; you can mix it with water to drink, or it can be made into a spray, the effect is about the same.”

Shen Jiangqing opened the package and peered inside; it was odorless, her eyes cold as she stated, “Whether we’ll be successful depends on our time at the resort. If I can get pregnant with Aling’s child again, all of our current problems will be nothing.”

“But sister, with your poor health, even if you get pregnant, can you carry the baby to term?” Shen Jun expressed his concern.
