Chapter 317 - Making up a story

Suyin blinked, trying to process how, why, and what the two were doing. And worse, a certain Koala bear's etiquettes had made her the center of attraction.

She pinched Honey. Hard.

"OWW!" He jumped away instantly, rubbing his waist, glaring daggers. But the expression shifted to that of a bullied child, lips jutting out. "It was dad's idea!"

Before Suyin could kill Wang Shi with her eyes, he wrapped her hand under the table, the hold possessive and tender at once. His face impassive, giving nothing away, but his eyes... they were intense.

"They seem to have upset you, so I'll--" Honey coughed. Wang Shi corrected the sentence, "--WE'LL be talking to them now."

"It's alright," she whispered, "I can take care of this."

His gaze narrowed. "No, it's not. I'm not going to allow other people in the world to question you over past. And why should you when I'm the one responsible for everything?"

Wang Shi pulled the mic towards him. Suyin squeezed his hand, "Please... Shishi," her voice barely audible.

He grazed her hand with the pad of his thumb, coaxing her. She felt Honey mimicking Wang Shi's action under the table and gave an innocent smile when she looked at him. 

"Mom, I'm a big boy now. Don't worry." 

It was heartwarming yet painful to see how much strength this little one was giving her, oblivious of the consequences. Though he might not understand the complexity, gradually he'll. Will this innocent smile be still there on his face? No.

"Media representatives," that came out as a warning from Wang Shi's mouth. "Consider this as the last that you have Suyin twisted up by your ugly questions." his voice came controlled and firm- and that makes it scarier. A warning from one of the most powerful men of the country can't be taken lightly. "Since I'm one of the concerned party, you'll be facing me now. Ask away."

Wu Sean's slow claps echoed. "Quite a player you are! You should be in politics! A perfect plan it was to make use of your son and woo the woman before she becomes your doom." he snatched a mic from a reporter, "Alright then since the prince is here to save the damsel in distress, let's start with a basic question first.... Does your son have a donor heart?"

Fu#k! Suyin looked at Wang Shi, cold sweat dripped from her forehead, heartbeat raced.

"Did you pay a hundred million dollars for it?"

"Yes,"

Sean's eyes shone evilly, "Does the heart came from Suyin's son?"

Suyin scratched at Wang Shi's hand to make him shut, but the man didn't budge from his position. He was firm and controlled. Honey did the same and squeezed her hand. These two had this in common: both incredibly protective of her. 

Wang Shi's gaze dropped, "Yes."

Sean smirked. The righteous and mighty Wang Shi was digging his own grave. "Did you get her concern?.... or did you approach the organ mafias to get it arranged?" if he says no, that will become the last nail in his coffin. But if he says yes, Suyin's would fall in everyone's eyes. A black spot in the name of a mother. 

Course, he'd say, No. Wu Sean was sure.

"YES."  Suyin's voice filled the air, surprising everyone. She yanked her hand from Honey's grip and snatched the mic. "I gave my concern."

Sean, "LIE!"

"YOU--"

"Many times you asked why did I choose Wang Shi over you. Well, now can you see the difference?" by revealing about her and Wu Sean she had given a reason to everyone to understand why the man was full of hatred towards her and Wang Shi. "You were nothing but a disgusting creature who stalked me, constantly putting me off with your l.u.s.ty gaze. I used to feel prickly in your presence, but because of our common projects I kept things professional and kill you by ignorance."

"IDIOT. A queen never settles for a eunuch but only a king. He treated me like a queen and became my king. You treated me like a game, so I played you." her gaze going back to the media, "I will send you his sleezy love letters and messages later. I'm sure Mrs. Feng will help me retrieve the deleted data from my phone and computer."

Xiu Mei gave a thumbs up.

"Coming back.... I swear on my son that Wang Shi is innocent and didn't kill my son." Suyin's words came loud and clear.

Sean, "You are lying--"

"Years back, a woman was to shift her two-month-old baby from Ace to People's hospital." Suyin looked at Xiu Mei sitting in the front row, "Can you please go through the registration data of People's hospital dated 23/04/200* and check the name Zhao Fai and show it to everyone?" 

Everyone remained silent as Suyin began to pace.

"However, the same day she had to leave for another city to sit for a medical VIVA that was to decide her and her son's future. As the baby was stable, she decided to change hospital after her return and let her mother guard the baby overnight."

"The woman was on her way back when she received the devastating news..... H- H-Her son was brain dead." her voice trembled. She felt two hands rubbing her back. A big and a small. "I--- s-she-- she was another eight hours away from reaching the city when she received a call. A call from a distressed man, a father." Wang Shi looked up at her face, complex thoughts and feelings shrouding his heart. She was making up a story.
