Cloudy, wearing a mask and sunglasses, stood at the doorway. Seeing him approach, she smilingly removed her sunglasses and mask, revealing her breathtakingly beautiful face.
However, no matter how beautiful her face was, he felt nothing. His expression immediately turned grim. "What are you doing here?"
"You father and son don't seem to welcome me. Aren't you going to invite me in for a sit-down?"
"If you have something to say, say it at the door. As a big celebrity like you, I don't dare to get too close. I don't want any scandals to come out!" Liu Yifeng's voice was devoid of emotion, filled with coldness.
This woman had previously appeared to be very averse to them, wanting to drive them away with money, but now she had come looking for them in person.
He could tell at a glance that she had ill intentions. He didn't know what trouble she planned to stir up, so naturally, he didn't want her to enter the room.
Yun Duo'er didn't get angry because of his words. Instead, she bent down and gently stroked Tongtong's face with both hands, her eyes full of tenderness. "Tongtong, Mommy misses you so much. Do you miss Mommy?"
Tongtong forcefully turned his head away, not wanting her to touch him, and retorted indifferently, "You're not my mommy. I don't have a cruel mommy like you!"
"Tongtong, are you still angry with Mommy? Actually, Mommy didn't intentionally send you away. It was because Mommy had no choice. Can you forgive Mommy?" Yun Duo'er said sadly.
At this moment, the sound of passersby echoed in the hallway. Yun Duo'er, fearing she would be recognized, hurriedly squeezed into the room and closed the door.
A specially invited guest staying on the same floor looked at Liu Yifeng's room and asked curiously, "Huh? Was that Yun Duo'er just now?"
"Where? I didn't see her," another person replied, looking at the empty hallway and asking with curiosity.
"It was that room, but she went in just now. I saw the back of her, and she looked very much like her."
"You must have seen wrong. They're staying in a five-star hotel, how could she be here?"
"Did I see wrong?" The person scratched the back of their head, their tone becoming uncertain.
Seeing that the people in the hallway had also entered their rooms, Yun Duo'er finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then she saw the father and son looking at her unpleasantly.
Recalling her actions just now, she felt a little awkward and quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand. It's not what you think. It's just that my identity is special, and it would be troublesome if people saw me!"
"Didn't you say you were my mommy? Then why are you afraid of others knowing about this and pretending not to know me?" Tongtong asked coldly.
Yun Duo'er squatted down and gently explained, "Tongtong, didn't Mommy just say that my identity is special? As a public figure, I can't let people know I have a child, or I'll lose fans, and Mommy's career will be over."
Liu Yifeng sneered from the side, "Your career is more important than your son? Didn't you say you didn't want us father and son to appear in front of you? Why did you suddenly come to our door today?
"Speak up, what is your purpose for being here?
"Don't tell me you've come to say you regret abandoning Tongtong, have you?"
Yun Duo'er didn't like hearing this. "What do you mean by that? I never abandoned Tongtong. Leaving the child with you was a last resort.
"I will still bring Tongtong to my side in the future. You are just temporarily helping to look after him!"
"Aren't you thinking too much? Tongtong's existence would affect your future, so you unhesitatingly abandoned him and sent him to the side of a father you've never met.
"When you did this, did you ever think about whether Tongtong would miss you? Whether Tongtong would adapt?
"Also, in the past half a year, you haven't visited him once or called to inquire about him.
"How dare you say you'll take Tongtong away without even asking if Tongtong is willing to return to your side!" Liu Yifeng said with a cold smile.
Yun Duo'er's face was already quite thick. She said righteously, "Why wouldn't he be willing? I am Tongtong's biological mother. I gave birth to him after ten months of pregnancy and raised him for three years by my side. Which child doesn't love their own mother?"
"You dare to say you raised him for three years? In these three years, did you spend more than a month by Tongtong's side?" Liu Yifeng asked.
This question stumped Yun Duo'er. The time she spent by Tongtong's side indeed added up to less than a month, but that couldn't negate the nurturing affection she had given him over the past three years.
Thinking of this, she became righteous again. "Regardless of whether he was with me or not, I raised him. I never let him lack food or drink, and I gave him the best education. You can't deny these things!"
Liu Yifeng: "Okay, I don't deny it. I admit you raised Tongtong.
"But you only raised him; you never participated in his life, nor did you let him experience a day of mother's love.
"You were the one who pushed him away and abandoned him. I don't know how you had the nerve to come here and say you had unavoidable difficulties!
"I see now. You must have watched the video, seen me driving a luxury car and living in a mansion, and realized that I'm not the poor boy you knew.
"So you've come to ask for money?"
Perhaps because Liu Yifeng had hit the mark, Yun Duo'er immediately became agitated and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Am I that kind of person who gets greedy for money?
"I came here just to find out where your money came from. Did Tongtong earn it for you?"
In her opinion, Liu Yifeng had been poor for twenty-eight years, and after Tongtong appeared, he suddenly became so wealthy, so it must be related to Tongtong!
After all, Tongtong was so smart; what was there that he couldn't do?
Liu Yifeng was about to admit it when Tongtong interrupted, "You bad woman, what does it have to do with you how Daddy makes money? This is Daddy's own money that he earned. Don't even think about touching his money!"
Liu Yifeng looked at Tongtong, who was defending his rights, and was deeply moved.
He knew Tongtong was afraid that if he admitted it, Yun Duo'er would use her identity as his mother to demand half of the property.
However, he didn't fear her admission. If Yun Duo'er agreed to take half the money and never bother their father and son's lives again, and wouldn't tell anyone she was Tongtong's mother, he would be willing to give her money.
Yun Duo'er looked at Tongtong, who was shielding Liu Yifeng, and changed her attitude from before, saying gently, "Tongtong, you've misunderstood. Mommy has money.
"I didn't come here to ask for money. I just want to know, since you know so much, why have you been hiding it from me?"
This matter had always been a mystery to her. She didn't know when Tongtong had learned so much.
"I never intended to hide it from you. Every time I wanted to tell you, you were always busy and kept interrupting. You simply didn't care about me, so I stopped telling you."
After hearing Tongtong's words, Yun Duo'er hurriedly explained, "Tongtong, you've misunderstood me. How could Mommy not care about you? It's because Mommy's work is too busy, and I have to earn money to support you, so I neglected you!
"But you must believe that Mommy loves you. What mother in this world doesn't love her own child!" As she spoke, her eyes filled with tears, making her look very moving.
