After Returning Home, the Female CEO Actually Bore Me a Daughter — Part 2

The smile on his face gradually froze...

In the photo was a handsome boy sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.

His features were still somewhat youthful. Though he was already asleep, the trace of sorrow between his brows refused to fade.

This boy...

Was unmistakably him from five years ago!

What... was going on?!

"Mom said Dad went somewhere very far away. As long as Yaoyao behaves, Dad will come back."

The little girl stared at Tang Chen, her tiny face incomparably serious as she asked, "I've been very good already. Are you Dad?"

Looking at the little girl, Tang Chen felt his heart inexplicably tighten.

Not knowing how to answer, he forced a smile and asked instead, "Little girl, how old are you? What's your name? Where's your mom?"

"My name is Tang Yao. I'm four years old. My mom is discussing business at the place upstairs where people eat, and Aunt Lin is waiting downstairs with me!"

Tang Yao...

Tang...

Upon hearing the little girl's name, Tang Chen's brows furrowed even deeper.

"Yaoyao!"

At that moment.

The rapid clatter of high heels sounded.

A graceful figure in a Chanel Office Lady Suit, her long black hair cascading down her back, rushed over and pulled the little girl into her arms.

"Didn't I tell you to stay with Aunt Lin and not run around? Why didn't you listen? What would Mom do if you got lost..."

After receiving a call from her assistant Lin Yue saying that Tang Yao had gone missing, Shen Qingyan had broken out in a cold sweat and hurried downstairs.

The little girl raised her hand and gently patted Shen Qingyan on the back of the head like a little adult. "Sorry, Mom. Yaoyao won't do that again. It's just that Yaoyao seems to have found Dad..."

"Mom, look. Is this big brother Dad?"

Shen Qingyan froze and looked up.

DNA match rate: 99.99%... Biological parent confirmed! Please save!

When she saw Tang Chen standing right in front of her.

Shen Qingyan's pupils suddenly constricted, her face filled with shock!

And likewise.

When Tang Chen saw Shen Qingyan's breathtakingly beautiful face.

His pupils contracted as well.

Their gazes met, memories intertwining...

"Long time no see. That time..."

"That time, nothing happened..."

Shen Qingyan said coldly, picked up Tang Yao, and turned to leave.

The instant she turned around, tears flooded her eyes.

Yet she stubbornly held them back, refusing to let them fall.

Four years old...

Tang...

Shen Qingyan...

Watching the mother and daughter walk away.

The warmth around Tang Chen vanished, and that invisible pressure radiated from him once more.

Without turning around, he said to Liu An, "Liu An, look into this for me."

"Yes, Boss!"

Liu An nodded.

At that moment, a stormy sea had already been stirred within his heart.

Judging from Tang Chen's reaction, this all seemed like it might be true!

The boss might have a daughter?

This was insane!

Knowing how serious the matter was, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest with the investigation to come.

"Oh! President Shen! Found your daughter?"

Lin Yue had already arranged for a Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan to be parked at the entrance.

Shen Qingyan, carrying Tang Yao, was about to get in.

But just then, a potbellied middle-aged man walked out. Seeing the mother and daughter, he quickly approached them.

"Found her. No need for Manager Zhao's concern."

Shen Qingyan's expression instantly turned icy, keeping him at arm's length.

The middle-aged man was not angered. His frivolous gaze swept over Shen Qingyan from head to toe as he smiled. "It's good that you found her."

"Since you found her, President Shen, don't forget about our business!"

"If you agree, remember to call me!"

He made a phone gesture, then reached out to touch Tang Yao's head, but Tang Yao dodged away.

"Little one, you won't even let me pat your head? Maybe I'll become your dad someday!"

Zhao Fang said with a smile that did not reach his eyes.

"You're not my dad! You're a bad person!"

Tang Yao glared at him without concealing her anger, like a furious little lioness.

"Manager Zhao, sorry. We'll be leaving first."

Shen Qingyan opened the car door and got in.

Watching the car's taillights disappear, Zhao Fang's eyes were filled with gloom.

"There'll come a day when you beg me."

"Then I'll see whether you can still keep acting so proud!"

Ring, ring, ring...

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket rang.

He picked it up and answered coldly, "Who is this?"

"This is Han Lin."

"Elder Han?"

Zhao Fang's expression changed at once. He hurriedly covered the receiver with his hand to block out any noise, then bent over obsequiously and said, "Elder Han, sorry, I didn't know it was you..."

"Enough, no need for that. Immediately use all your resources in Magic City to find someone for me."

"Find someone?" Zhao Fang was stunned. "Is there anyone in Magic City that even you can't find, Elder Han?"

"I just received news from New York City. The person at the helm of Shengtang Group has returned to Magic City. The major families are all searching for this elusive man. Use every resource at your disposal immediately. If you can help me find him, you'll be well rewarded!" Han Lin said.

Zhao Fang understood.

Han Lin was also mobilizing every resource he could, which was why he had come to Zhao Fang...

"Yes, rest assured, Elder Han. I'll send people out to ask around right away. The moment there's even the slightest news, I'll report it to you immediately!"

The presidential suite on the top floor of the Sheng Tang Grand Hotel.

Tang Chen was once again gazing over half of Magic City below.

Compared to the chairman's office atop Shengtang Tower, this place was clearly far inferior.

Yet standing here, Tang Chen inexplicably felt a sense of peace.

A wandering son had returned to his roots.
