Chapter 41: The Little Brat Turned Out to Be Her Son

After escorting her mother, who had suffered a minor fracture in her arm, back home, Qin Yubing made a trip to the mall. She bought a robot toy and a basket of fruit, then drove once more to the hospital.

Parking her car, she had only taken a few steps when a dazzling sports car pulled up not far away.

Lykan Hypersport.

Only seven exist in the world. Even the young master of her own management company, despite his wealth, couldn’t get his hands on such a top-tier luxury car.

A glimmer of awe shone in Qin Yubing’s eyes.

But what truly took her breath away was the man who stepped out of the car.

Clad entirely in black and wearing sunglasses, his strikingly handsome features seemed chiseled from stone. His high, straight nose and thin, tightly pressed lips gave him an air of aloofness, a chilling aura that warned others to keep their distance.

Several girls passing by couldn’t help but glance his way, but the icy presence he exuded kept everyone at bay.

The man removed his sunglasses, took out his phone, and made a call as he strode toward the inpatient building.

Qin Yubing’s heart pounded uncontrollably. She found herself following him without even thinking.

They entered the same elevator.

Standing in the corner, Qin Yubing watched his neatly cropped hair and broad, upright back, her heart thudding wildly.

She remembered this man; she had seen him at the club before.

The moment he emerged from his private room, a retinue of bodyguards awaited him with the utmost respect.

Qin Yubing overheard his cold, emotionless voice on the phone, “Old man, have you found out which room that brat is in?”

“Nan Xiaokai? 608? Got it.”

The mention of Xiaokai’s name and room number made Qin Yubing’s heart skip a beat.

This man, with his wild, forbidding handsomeness, was here for Xiaokai?

Who was he to Xiaokai?

Why had Nan Zhi never mentioned him?

When the elevator reached the sixth floor, the man strode out, his legs long and sure.

Qin Yubing hurried to catch up, drawing a deep breath to steady her nerves. She spoke gently, “Sir, are you here to see Xiaokai?”

The man ahead of her seemed not to hear, his demeanor rebellious and cold, not pausing for her in the slightest.

Though Qin Yubing wasn’t a superstar, she was still a well-known actress. No one had ever ignored her so completely.

But anyone who could afford a Lykan Hypersport was not someone she dared offend.

She tried again, her voice even sweeter and softer, “Sir, I’m Xiaokai’s godmother, and Nan Zhi’s close friend. I’m here to see them too. Shall we go together?”

At the mention of Nan Zhi’s name, the man halted, his noble, striking face turning to look at her.

Even standing a few steps apart, it was the first time Qin Yubing had seen him so clearly up close.

His sharply defined features, the long, keen darkness of his eyes, and those lightly pressed crimson lips combined into a visage both flawless and dangerously alluring.

His brow arched with a trace of wildness and defiance.

Qin Yubing felt that he was like a lion reigning supreme over the grasslands, exuding an innate arrogance and icy pride that no ordinary woman could ever tame.

Especially when she met his deep, inscrutable gaze, she felt as if she were being swallowed whole, barely able to breathe.

She averted her eyes, her voice unsteady. “I—I can show you to Xiaokai’s room.”

The man narrowed his cold black eyes. “You’re Nan Xiaokai’s godmother?”

Qin Yubing nodded.

“And Nan Zhi, what is she to him?”

Qin Yubing didn’t understand why he asked, but answered honestly, “Zhi Zhi is Xiaokai’s mother. Do you know her?”

The man pressed his well-shaped lips together, offering no reply. He turned and walked away.
