Rebirth: She Became a Beautiful and Cool Bigshot-Chapter 252 Lin Youdong is Scolded

After Lee Mi left without saying a word, Han Zheng bowed to everyone, "Originally, I intended to hold a banquet to formally introduce my daughter Chuyue to family and friends, but today..." He paused, "Let’s leave that for another time when I can explain in detail. We have other matters to attend to, please excuse us!"

He finished speaking and returned to the fifth floor with Meng Chuyue, Shen Ci, and Han Muyang.

Although recognizing each other prematurely brought some complications, the recognition itself felt quite good. Smiles adorned the faces of Han Zheng, Meng Chuyue, and Shen Ci.

Only Han Muyang still wore a look of shock.

But he knew Meng Chuyue’s background, so there was only one thing he could not understand, "Dad, how could you fall into the trap set by that Zhao...?"

His father was so wise and powerful, how could he have been bested by a scoundrel like Zhao Sulan?

It was not until he entered the room on the fifth floor that he voiced this thought. Han Zheng was not angry but replied indifferently, "What do you think Chuyue’s birth father should be like?"

Han Muyang was speechless.

He quickly realized and chuckled, "Let’s not talk about that anymore. Really, I’m just very happy, extremely happy to know that Chuyue is my sister."

However, what pleased him the most was that in the future, Shen Ci would have to call him ’brother.’

With a provocative look, he glanced at Shen Ci, who responded with a cold laugh, "Yueyue is actually two months older than you, little brother. Remember to call me big brother from now on."

If it weren’t for Han Zheng being there, he would have forced Han Muyang to call him ’brother-in-law.’

Han Muyang was stupefied.

Could this really be true?

No, he refused to accept it.

Han Zheng and Meng Chuyue were now celebrities in Hai City’s upper social circle.

Therefore, only a few hours later, the news that Meng Chuyue was Han Zheng’s biological daughter reached Lin Youdong and Zhao Sulan.

Lin Youdong, thinking Meng Chuyue was the child of Meng Wanhua and Han Zheng, was extremely surprised. He sighed to Zhao Sulan, "I never imagined Meng Wanhua and Han Zheng had a history together? But how could they have met? They shouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet, right? Could it have been just a one-night mistake?"

Meng Wanhua was already dead.

Before her death, she had claimed that she had been wronged by him after becoming pregnant with Meng Chuyue.

Thus, Lin Youdong harbored no resentment and gossiped calmly.

But he was unaware that he was the most pitiful victim in this gossip.

Zhao Sulan did not respond to Lin Youdong.

She was extremely afraid now.

The recognition between Han Zheng and Meng Chuyue—did it mean that her scandal would soon be widely known?

How could she face others then?

Ah, she could only hope that Han Zheng and Meng Chuyue would keep this a secret.

After all, revealing it would not be to their advantage.

...

Indeed, Han Zheng and Meng Chuyue were not prepared to drag Zhao Sulan into this.

They had initially planned to indefinitely delay... revealing this detail, but everyone naturally assumed Meng Wanhua to be Meng Chuyue’s biological mother.

Due to the intentional leading of people like Meng Lixin and Meng Jinhua, everyone quickly agreed on this version of Meng Chuyue’s parentage.

Indeed, Meng Wanhua was Meng Chuyue’s biological mother.

Moreover, Meng Wanhua had a secret romance with Han Zheng back in the days.

The two had planned to marry, unfortunately, on that fateful day, Meng Wanhua was violated by Lin Youdong while drunk. Unaware that she was already pregnant with Han Zheng’s child, to protect her reputation, she had no choice but to marry Lin Youdong...

Although Han Zheng was initially betrothed as a child bride, the policy required such practices to be stopped.

Therefore, in this story, neither Han Zheng nor Meng Wanhua were criticized—instead, Lin Youdong was heavily criticized.

He was condemned first for his debaucherous act that violated Meng Wanhua, and second, for callously abandoning his wife and daughter after returning to the city...

In short, while Zhao Sulan was not criticized, it was Lin Youdong who was verbally attacked to the point where he dared not leave his house.

Lin Youdong thought this was the truth, and felt no injustice.

He just felt ill-fated and hoped the issue would pass soon.

...

Han Zheng and Meng Chuyue had not expected things to turn out this way.
