Chapter 138: Your Family Name, My Name (Part 2) I

”Sorry, Li DanFC is my bodyguard . I booked this room with his name,” he explained, pointing at the man in a suit outside the door .

The man in the suit waved . ”I'm Li DanFC, Mr . Yun Huateng's bodyguard . ”

”Yun Huateng?” I repeated, confused .

”Yes, that's my name,” he replied with a smile .

The woman beside him looked at me with thinly veiled shock .

”Your family name is Yun? Why would you want mine then?” I asked .

”Let's talk in the living room . It's quite complicated . It's a little weird for us to see you lying down . ” Yun Huateng pointed at the hall area .

The bodyguard withdrew and took his post by the door .

The couple watched me as I got off the bed and walked out . I looked around to see if anyone was hiding in a corner .

After I was satisfied that there were only three of them, I turned to observe the bodyguard again .

He was a big fellow and I definitely wasn't his match .

I sat on the sofa in the living room and Yun Huateng asked, ”Tea or coffee, Mr . Gou Dan?”

”Water's fine,” I answered cautiously .

He waved his hand and his bodyguard started preparing the cups .

I thought about the situation and the man's motive .

Yun was a good surname, and since they were able to book this room, it was safe to say that they were exorbitantly wealthy .

It was very unlikely that he had taken a liking to my surname, so what did he want to talk to me about?

Yun Huateng looked about 40 or 50 years old, and although the woman beside him had an air of elegance about her, her mature age was more than obvious . Every time I looked at her, I get the sense of deja vu, but I couldn't point out exactly when or where I might've seen her .

I probed, ”Is the woman your lover?”

”My wife, w.a.n.g Xiaomei,” he answered kindly .

Aha!  She was a female lead in an old television series I followed when I was young .

That series came out before I was born and she seemed to be decently popular during that period . Was this a rich and famous combination couple? They weren't average people for sure, so what do they want with me?

To try and take the lead of the situation, I hedged, ”I'm a surname changer . I don't think you're hoping for your child to follow my surname, right? Yun and w.a.n.g are good surnames . And if I'm not wrong, this lady here isn't even pregnant yet . It's already June and if she's giving birth, it would take place next year . Aren't you seeking me out too early?”

Yun Huateng explained, smiling, ”We do want a surname change for our child, but he's not here . ”

Was the child from a mistress?

Why bring the wife then?

An enemy perhaps?

Did they want the enemy's child to be a Gou for life? Just as how the ancient emperor had humiliated our clan?

The world belonging to the rich was difficult to comprehend .

”Please clarify this matter, Mr . Yun,” I said .

He took out a photograph from his pocket . ”Take a look at this . ”

I glanced down at the photo and shuddered . ”When did you capture this photo of me?”

”So you think so too?” he asked, smiling .

”Think so? Think what? You mean to say this person isn't me?” I took a closer look at the person in the photograph and realized that it wasn't actually me . He was dressed in clothes I did not have, and he was leaning against a Ferrari, another item that I most certainly did not possess . We looked so alike, we could pa.s.s off as twins .
