My CEO Harem Cultivation System

Chapter 54 - The Very Messed Up Situation Gets Resolved? For Real?



"How do you know… about that?" Li Yang asked. His tone went wary at all of the words that this woman was saying. If things might have been any different—he would have implied that a chance to get sued for defamation was already on its way if she dared speak any more.

The Li House protected their reputation and things like this would have never been uncovered at all. And so that meant one thing. This was no ordinary stranger.

Luo Ju Di scoffed at his reaction, "Your brother who else? How do you even think I actually got a chance to get close to you during the party? Well, it could have been any other girl, your brother did imply that you were out to get laid and mustering the courage and if there was one of us who wanted to help you. I thought it would be… exciting to sleep with you."

His brother.

Of course, it was his brother yet again! Li Yang raised a hand to his face and massaged his temple. What were the chances? A lot.. But he had already said that he wasn\'t interested—and yet the man would suggest to other women he was looking to sleep around. Did he say it to them prior to him drinking? When Liang said he ought to lose his v-card back then, he had no idea that the guy was that serious.

And this was the result.

Did his brother spike his drink or did he just have a terrible alcohol tolerance?

Thankfully, the woman was only silent and didn\'t say another further word as he tried to gather his wits. Liang knew that he was only interested in one girl—but the man surely didn\'t equate sex with love, so that logic wouldn\'t apply to him. And yet despite all of that, there was another thing that came to mind.

Her.

Did she by any chance hear about him trying to sleep around and was disgusted by it? She was supposed to be at the banquet. He had personally invited her to come and had hoped he would get to talk to her, but the event became too loud and crowded at that time.

Li Yang inwardly sighed.

Maybe it was for the best that she and him lost contact after that. Perhaps this was the reason why she didn\'t want to meet with him afterward. Or maybe it was something else. Regardless, what would even a modern woman say to a suggestion of \'Would you like to be part of my harem—You\'ll be my most loved one?\' In the past, women were regarded as the properties of their family or husband\'s family, but things were different now.

"Do not tell me that you\'re one of those men that\'ll pass out after hearing this." Luo Ju Di said. The mother finally spoke up with a small frown. "I understand that hearing about you having a child is enough to threaten your bachelor lifestyle—or maybe it\'s me that you have a problem about. But I want a good life for my child regardless of that. She has the right to experience a better life than what I could provide to her. Surely you wouldn\'t be that harsh to a child?"

Li Yang lowered his hand, "How close were you with my brother to have learned of this?" And though there was this slightly awkward feeling he had, he would ask this question. "Have you slept with my brother before? Are you really sure that it\'s me and not him?"

Luo Ju Di crossed her arms over her chest. "I worked with him, and relationships between people who worked together is really weird. Certainly not my style. But I guess if I was a man and you two were sisters, that\'d be something to brag about, but no?"

Her sense of humor and oddly mismatched with Li Yang\'s preconceived notion of a mother. And yet her being this refreshingly if not too frank was good in this situation.

He sighed and shrugged, "Everyone is free to sleep with whoever they want—as long as it\'s consensual and safe. And also of legal age. But my problem was the fact that I was not in the right state of my mind while I was drunk—and you assumed that I was looking to sleep with anybody."

Luo Ju Di coughed, "You\'re a strange man, but no simple man would be a CEO. I\'m not sure if you\'re trying to rationalize this… but at least you haven\'t blown up in anger or had me thrown away when you saw me."

Li Yang stared back at her, frowning. "I try not to do something like that. No situation would be resolved if you lash out in anger."

"Well… there\'s a certain amount of anger necessary." She pursed her lips, "But I\'m not here to be a therapist. I\'m here to ask you to perform at least some fatherly duties."

"I\'m trying to ascertain if I really am the father." Li Yang managed a terse laugh. This kind of situation was ridiculous, but it was up to him to make sense with it. "Well, it depends on how much you can remember—how large was the time gap between him and me? Did you sleep with anybody else after me? How did we not use a condom?"

"I thought we already established that you\'re the father, and I didn\'t say that I slept with your brother. We worked together." Luo Ju Di frowned. "But to answer your question, you wanted it raw back then. I thought it was fine based on my calculations that it wasn\'t in my ovulation cycle…"

Li Yang didn\'t quite understand the last part. At all. Or maybe his own head was blocking it out. "My apologies, we could get a DNA test to see if she really is related to me." And then what came after that was the difficult part.

"Do you really think… no, you have a point to be suspicious. I\'ll comply with your terms, but I assure you that it\'s your child."

He didn\'t know what to think of that.

Li Yang coughed, "If there is any chance that what you say is true, then my relationship with other women—"

"I\'m not expecting you to marry me. If you\'re sleeping with other women—I don\'t care at all. I\'m not trying to include myself in the picture, I only want the best for Chunhua."

That was fine and all for him, but he could only imagine if the System were to give him a mission and have her as the target. Regardless, for now all things were dealt with. A mother\'s love for her child. Li Yang wasn\'t sure if he could understand it completely, but he nodded. "Thank you for your words, I\'ll see you and your daughter out and have proper accommodations arranged if you are lacking."

Li Yang could only wonder if this had all been captured and seen by the Heavens. But more than that, he needed to have a good conversation with his brother.
