Mr. Ming was already thinking about how more people would flood his restaurant if he should release the piece of news to the media. He was just your typical greedy man that could do anything for money even with how rich he already was.
He could have released the news but he knew better than to allow his years of hard work go down the drain. He would surely be the first to be suspected which would mean a big goodbye to his business.
Luckily for him, he was rational enough to think about the outcome of messing with the Golden King of the entertainment industry.

" Li Shang, do you think Ah Yi is coming? It's already getting late " Zhou Kexin said looking at Li Shang's face.
" Oh....that, I called him but he said he had some works to take care of " Li Shang lied. He didn't put a call across Zheng Tianyi at all.
" Ahh...I see " Zhou Kexin slowly nodded feeling downhearted. She wouldn't have bothered to come if she knew he wasn't present.
Li Shang noticed her mood. " Why are you looking like that, do you mean I can't invite you to a meal" He asked her with a smile.
" No....that's not it. I just expected Ah Yi to be here by now " She raised her wineglass and clinked it with the wineglass Li Shang held then took a sip of her red wine.
Zhou Kexin placed her wine glass back on the table but it lost balance and fell on her spilling the contents on her laps.
" Ahh!!" She shrieked. She had worn the dress specially for Zheng Tianyi. Her short white limited edition gown was already ruined.
" Are you okay?" Li Shang worriedly asked as he offered her some tissue from the tissue box.
Zhou Kexin shook her head and received the tissue from him. " Thanks, I will clean it up in the restroom " She offered him a smile and walked out of their private room using her bag to cover the stained part of her white gown.
Li Shang looked at the door she left through. " When would you look at my side?" He said sadly as he downed his wine at a go.
Zhou Kexin hurriedly walked into the restroom. Luckily for her nobody was there to see her stained dress. After cleaning it for a while and the stain was fairly visible she walked out of the restroom.
" This..." Zhou Kexin muttered as she saw an entourage of bodyguards walk past her forming a barricade around someone she couldn't see. Her eyes followed them as they moved further. She saw a little boy leave the middle of the bodyguards to pick something that fell from his hand.
Yuxuan sensed someone looking at him so he briefly turned his face towards Zhou Kexin direction. He ignored her and went back to join the bodyguards waiting for him.
"..." Although there was quite a distance between Zhou Kexin and the entourage, she was still a to catch a glimpse of Yuxuan's face.
' How can that little boy possibly look like Ah Yi ' She thought with a confused gaze. Trying to satisfy her curiosity, she decided to follow them.
" Hey, what are you looking at?" Li Shang asked as he approached Zhou Kexin. He had waited for a while but was becoming worried when she hasn't returned to their room.
Zhou Kexin withdrew her gaze from the direction she was looking at. " No, it's nothing let's go " She forced a smile at him and they walked away from the front of the restroom. Zhou Kexin kept on looking back at the Silver room.
The Silver room was the only room located on the topmost floor of Tranquil Restaurant. It was a very large room that had its own kitchen in it. Only the five star Michelin chefs were allowed to cook for the guest.
" This way please. I'm sorry for the delay" Mr. Ming led them into the room, bowed down and left. Five of the bodyguards were left in the room with the rest guarding the door.
Before long, two men putting on a chef attire walked into the Silver room.
" Good day Mr. Zheng " One of the men greeted. From his accent, it was obvious that he was a Frenchman.
Zheng Tianyi didn't bother to give him a reply, rather he opened the magazine on the table and skimmed through it.
One of the bodyguards led the men to the kitchen and stood with them. Yuxuan had already informed the bodyguards on what he would like to eat.

" Sir, where would you like to go?" Han Sen asked as his boss and Yuxuan entered the car.
" To the main house "
Han Sen nodded his head and zoomed off. After about two hours, they got to the mansion.
" We are here" Han Sen announced. The main house was where Zheng Tianyi with his late parents lived since he was born. Han Sen offered to carry the sleeping Yuxuan but Zheng Tianyi motioned him to stop.
Zheng Tianyi personally carried Yuxuan surprising Han Sen. He knew that his boss wasn't really fond of children but seeing the way he carried Yuxuan gently without waking him up like it wasn't his first time doing so. He was quite skilled at it. Han Sen closed the door of the Rolls Royce. and bade Zheng Tianyi goodbye. He could already imagine the look of surprise on the workers face when they see a mini version of Zheng Tianyi.
Anyone who saw them together would think they are father and son and wouldn't know the complicated relationship between Yuxuan mother and Zheng Tianyi.
" Young..." Just as Han Sen thought, words got stuck in Butler Yim's mouth. Butler Yim rubbed his face with his palm thinking it was due to him expecting a child from his old young master that he was hallucinating. He opened his eyes and still saw Zheng Tianyi standing straight with Yuxuan head resting on his shoulder. Although butler Yim was only able to see the side view of the little boy, it was obvious Yuxuan was the carbon copy of Zheng Tianyi.
