13: Chapter 13 The Dramatic Truth

"Sister?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Murong Lanlan, but even Old Master Mu's brows furrowed deeply.

Before anyone could react, two men in suits stepped out from behind the young man.

One of the men took out two contracts from a backpack and handed them to Murong Lanlan.

One of the men said solemnly, "According to the court's appraisal, Murong Junjun has been confirmed as Murong Jiaxing's direct biological son and has the right to claim Murong Jiaxing's inheritance."

"It is perfectly legal and reasonable for a son to succeed his father's business. If there are no issues, please sign the contract."

The man's flat words struck everyone's ears like a heavy hammer.

"Bio... biological son?"

Everyone present was shocked by the man's words.

"No way? Is Jun Jun's father really Murong Jiaxing? Then wouldn't that make him... an illegitimate son?"

"Holy crap! This is mind-blowing. The Dog Streamer already hinted at this earlier, but not a single one of us realized it."

"Looking at them, it's obvious no one knew Murong Jiaxing had an illegitimate son. I'm really curious how the Dog Streamer knew. Did he really calculate it?"

"Damn, why do I suddenly feel like the Dog Streamer really was framed?"

"What do you mean, person above?"

"Didn't you guys notice? After the Dog Streamer agreed to help Murong Lanlan, Jun Jun started slandering him online. Is it possible... that Jun Jun was afraid the Dog Streamer was actually that capable and didn't want him helping Murong Lanlan—his sister?"

"Holy crap! Thinking about it carefully, it's actually terrifying!"

"His goal in doing this was... to fight for the family inheritance?"

"Exactly! But I have a question: how could he have known Murong Jiaxing would pass away today?"

????

????

"Holy crap! I just thought of something... Parri..."

"Sigh... such is the way of children from big families..."

...

"What exactly do you mean? I don't recall having a brother!"

Murong Lanlan furrowed her elegant brows, staring at Murong Junjun with cold eyes.

Meanwhile, Old Master Mu's expression remained dark and uncertain throughout.

"Hehe..."

Murong Junjun gave a wicked smile, appearing unusually frenzied for some reason.

"I know, none of you know me, or even knew of my existence! But it doesn't matter! I'm just an illegitimate son, not worth your remembrance!"

"I've been waiting—waiting for an opportunity—and now I've finally found it! Hahahaha..."

Whether out of excitement or sorrow, Murong Junjun's entire body began to tremble uncontrollably. He then pointed at Murong Jiaxing on the ground and shouted angrily.

"It's all because of this man! He deserves to die! He was clearly already engaged, yet he still pursued my mother! My mother was deceived by him for three whole years!"

"In life... how many three-year periods can one have..."

At this point, Murong Junjun collapsed to his knees and wept bitterly, disregarding his image, his face twisted in a hideous expression.

Then, as if chatting about mundane family matters, he said, "Since I was a child, I never had a father. When I was in kindergarten, other children could sit in their fathers' laps and act spoiled, or even..."

"But... I didn't. I... craved a father's love. My mother told me I didn't have a father, that my father was dead!"

"Yet, when my mother passed away from illness, this man appeared... He said he was my father. Hehe..."

"Only then did I realize that... I was just an illegitimate son. I really wanted to ask him: where was he when my mother didn't have money for medical treatment? Where was he when I was looked down upon by others growing up?"

"I hate him! I hate that he didn't come sooner; I would have even preferred if he were dead! This identity makes me feel ashamed..."

At this moment, the scene was silent. Everyone was stunned into a daze by Murong Junjun's words, as if they had forgotten how to think.

No one ever expected that Murong Jiaxing actually had an illegitimate son, let alone that he would appear in such a manner...

Even the viewers in the livestream were stunned by Murong Junjun's speech.

To think that a major Streamer with five million followers, a big internet celebrity, had such a... tragic background...

"Hehe... So, you orchestrated this whole scheme to take Murong Jiaxing's life?"

A calm voice drifted over, instantly snapping everyone present back to their senses.

Murong Junjun looked over in surprise, only to see Qin Mo watching him with a nonchalant expression.

At this moment, Murong Lanlan's eyes widened. She glared fixedly at Murong Junjun, her eyes filled with rage.

"You killed my father?"

"Sigh, Jun'er, you have disappointed me too much..."

Just as Murong Lanlan's roar subsided, a faint voice followed immediately after, sounding exceptionally tranquil in the silent setting.

"Pa... Papa!"

"Jiaxing!"

"This..."

Murong Lanlan, the first to react, immediately looked toward Murong Jiaxing.

Old Master Mu was even moved to tears.

There stood Murong Jiaxing, who had been lying motionless on the ground, having stood up at some unknown point.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened, their faces filled with astonishment.

"He's... he's alive! He's really alive!"

A middle-aged doctor stood frozen in place, muttering blankly, the fear in his eyes as if he had seen a ghost.

Those present no longer knew what words to use to describe their current feelings...

The livestream chat exploded even more.

"Holy crap! He's really alive! Holy crap!"

"Resurrection! He came back from the dead!"

"Streamer... no! Brother Mo, Master Mo wasn't lying! He really has this ability!"

"Incredible! Unbelievable! Can such a miraculous thing really happen in this world?"

Qin Mo didn't pay attention to the commotion in the livestream, for a good show was about to begin...

"Alright, Lan'er, Papa is fine. I'm going to handle some matters now and will come back to be with you in a moment."

Murong Jiaxing first patted Murong Lanlan, who was wailing in his arms, and comforted her gently.

Then, he greeted Old Master Mu and the surrounding medical staff before walking toward Murong Junjun with an incredibly cold gaze.

By now, Murong Junjun was scared witless. He stood frozen in place, staring blankly at the approaching Murong Jiaxing.

"You... you're not dead?"

Murong Jiaxing said with a livid face, "Thanks to you, I'm not dead yet!"

Murong Junjun seemed to have been frightened out of his wits, muttering to himself, "Impossible... this is impossible! Why aren't you dead? This is impossible! He wouldn't make a mistake..."

"What... what did you say?"

"Was it really... your doing?"

Murong Lanlan stared at Murong Junjun, her soul seemingly lost, her mind a complete blank.

From Murong Jiaxing's words just now, she could tell that her father had acknowledged Murong Junjun's identity.

Although she didn't know why her father had an illegitimate son...

But she never expected that he would actually want to kill her father...

"Why did you do it?" Murong Lanlan asked in a hoarse voice.

Knowing that the matter had been exposed, Murong Junjun no longer cared about anything. With a hideous expression, he roared, "Why? Ask him!" as he pointed at Murong Jiaxing.

Murong Jiaxing's heart was currently torn and in immense pain; his own biological son was actually the culprit who wanted to kill him.

He didn't answer Jun Jun's words. He stood there as if he had lost his soul, his body shaking uncontrollably.

"What on earth is going on? Dog Streamer! Aren't you a Divine Fortune-teller? Hurry up and explain!"

"Sigh, it seems the topic of Murong Junjun slandering the Dog Streamer online was also fake..."

"I really didn't expect that a big internet celebrity with five million followers on the surface would be this kind of person behind the scenes. Sigh!"

"We've wronged the Streamer once again..."

...

"Sigh, I'll be the one to say it."

At this moment, Qin Mo could no longer bear it and stepped forward, speaking leisurely.
