“Qiu Xingyuan, please come on stage to receive the award.”
The guests at the kindergarten’s ceremony stood up and applauded along with the music of the awards ceremony.
Qiu Tong straightened Qiu Xingyuan’s suit and bow tie. She patted his shoulder and sent him to the side of the stage with a smile.
Qiu Xingyuan pursed his lips and raised his head. With a calm gaze, he walked to Song Yan’s side.
Song Yan opened the red velvet gift box from Mayor Shen’s hand and took out the medal that was gleamed with a golden light. He bent over and personally placed it on Qiu Xingyuan’s chest.
Thunderous applause rang out from below the stage. Camera lights flashed repeatedly, capturing the current scene. The parents looked at Qiu Tong with endless envy.
“Mommy, Eldest Brother is amazing!”
Little Yu excitedly stamped her feet and clapped her hands as she spoke.
Song Yan followed the voice and saw Qiu Tong. He immediately straightened up and looked at Qiu Xingyuan’s face. His movements froze for a moment…
This child’s mother… was Qiu Tong?
Qiu Tong was the Miss Qiu that Mayor Shen had mentioned?
Song Yan’s pupils quivered, before he concealed his shock.
Qiu Xingyuan’s eyes were very similar to Jin Yang’s, and his silhouette and aura were also very similar to him!
Therefore…
Jin Yang didn’t seem to like women, but he actually had an illegitimate child?
Did Jin Yang know about the child’s existence?
Song Yan smirked. This was the best opportunity he had. He wanted to snatch this illegitimate son of Qiu Tong and Jin Yang, and use him to humiliate him.
He could not wait to see Jin Yang’s panicked and vexed expression. After thinking about it, he bent over and squatted beside Qiu Xingyuan. He pointed at the kindergarten teacher’s camera, indicating for them to take a picture together for remembrance.
He rested his hand on Qiu Xingyuan’s shoulder and casually pinched off a strand of Qiu Xingyuan’s hair.
Jin Yang and Song Yan were identical twins with identical DNA. With this hair, one could determine whether they were related by blood!
Song Yan gathered the hair into his palm and smiled calmly.
Qiu Xingyuan found it a little strange. He stole a glance at Song Yan and felt that this man seemed rather familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
The kindergarten teacher gestured at him, “Student Qiu, look at me!”
Qiu Xingyuan put on a stiff face and smoothed his hair as he turned to look at the camera. His posture was a little stiff.
Seeing that his elder brother was so outstanding, Qiu Xingqiao glared at Little Jin and his mother with his hands on his hips. He called out in a loud voice. “Did you see that? My elder brother’s medal is the awesome one!”
“A stupid certificate can’t compare to it! What’s so great about an award for computers? If Little Yu were to participate in that competition, she would definitely be better than you!”
Qiu Xingqiao childishly smirked and stuck his tongue out at Little Jin. He wanted to pay back all the grievances he had suffered!
Little Jin had been treated by his mother as a precious treasure since he was young. He was bold to the point of being audacious. At this moment, he was pointing at Song Yan and Qiu Xingyuan, who were taking a picture together on stage. He was speaking loudly such that all the surrounding parents could hear.
“Hmph, what is this science award? It’s a sham!”
“The Qiu children look very similar to the award presenter! Especially Qiu Xingyuan and him…”
“Who knows what your relationship is! That award might have been won through connections!”
“Mommy said that as long as you donate money to the kindergarten, you can win awards in exchange. You must have spent more money than us!”
Little Jin bluntly revealed the “dark side” of the kindergarten. Little Jin’s mother was so frightened that her legs went limp and she rushed over. She covered his mouth and turned her head to look at Song Yan guiltily.
“Sir… don’t listen to his nonsense! Children are ignorant!”
Little Jin’s mother was very frightened. How dare this child speak nonsense in front of the president!
Song Yan personally accompanied Qiu Xingyuan to the middle of the crowd. He sized up Little Jin with a meaningful smile on his thin lips and said indifferently.
“It’s alright. Children can’t tell right from wrong. Everything they say is unintentional.”
“However, he’s so young, yet he’s already speculating and slandering others. It seems like he lacks parental supervision. As his mother, you should pay more attention.”
His tone was calm and even gentle, but Little Jin’s mother was trembling in fear.
He… he said that she had failed her duty as a parent!
She grabbed Little Jin and roared with a ferocious expression.
“Did you hear that?! Don’t spout nonsense! In the future, you must control your mouth and stop slandering others, understand? Otherwise, I won’t buy you any more toys!”
Little Jin had never been scolded in public before. Sensing the gazes of the children around him, he felt embarrassed and shielded his eyes with his arms. He immediately broke down and wailed.
Qiu Xingyu was somewhat frightened. She hid behind Qiu Tong’s back and covered her eyes with her small hands, peeping through them to see the situation.
She tugged at Qiu Tong’s sleeve and said softly, “Auntie is so angry, but she has never scolded Little Jin in the past.”
Qiu Tong stroked the top of her head comfortingly, her gaze landing on Song Yan..
