Chapter 2040: Kept a Secret
When they thought that peace had finally arrived, Ma Haodong was involved in a drug scandal.
A post surfaced online about Ma Haodong’s involvement.

Most of Ma Haodong’s fans couldn’t believe what they saw and were asking Ma Haodong to give an official statement to the public.
A lot of the fans even stopped following him because of the scandal.
Some even humiliated him online before they even got the whole story.
Yet, the fans’ reaction wasn’t a surprise, as Ma Haodong was always a symbol of positive energy.
He was also the ambassador for the town’s anti-drug campaign.
That was the reason why the public was angered by it.
When Huo Yunshen learned about the news, he quickly dispatched someone to help Ma Haodong. And that someone was Xiao Yuqian.
When Xiao Yuqian heard Ma Haodong’s name on the phone, she couldn’t help but frown.
Xiao Yuqian looked at her son playing next to her and asked in a low voice, “But, Mr. Huo, why do we have to help him? He’s not even in our company yet.”
“He’s Jing Xi’s friend.”
That was the only reason Huo Yunshen gave. Because Ma Haodong was Jing Xi’s friend, that was why he had to help no matter what the cost was.
“… I get it. I’ll find a way to solve the problem.”
Xiao Yuqian was frustrated. She had finally gotten a night free from being overworked and could stay at home with her son. But now, she had to take care of Ma Haodong’s problem.
When the little boy noticed her mother grab her bag off the couch, he ran towards her and hugged her leg.
“Mommy, do you have to leave again?”
“I’m sorry. An emergency came up. Be nice to your grandma, okay?”
Xiao Yuqian patted her son’s head softly. She realized that since joining Jingyue, the time she could spend with her son had decreased.
“Okay! Take care of your body too, mommy.”
yuan Bao nodded and let go of his mother’s leg.
After telling her mother she had to leave, Xiao Yuqian went to change her shoes. She then turned to look at her son, who was also looking at her.
“Mommy, when is daddy coming back? He can play with me when you’re not around,” yuan Bao suddenly said.
The question made Xiao Yuqian choke for a while as she tried to hold back her tears.
yuan Bao was already five years old. Xiao Yuqian had been keeping his birth a secret. Guan Hao was the only one who knew about him.
She gave birth to yuan Bao in Estan five years ago. When Huo Yunshen asked her to come back to take over Jingyue Entertainment, she lied to yuan Bao, saying they were going back to look for his father.
“Soon, my little one, soon. Just a little more time, and I’ll find him.” Xiao Yuqian forced a smile.
“Okay!” yuan Bao smiled as he waved his hand.
Xiao Yuqian left and drove to the police station. After telling the police who she was, she got to meet Ma Haodong.
Ma Haodong was locked up in the interrogation room after the cop took his statement.
When he heard the door open, he raised his head and was in shock to see who came in.
“Why are you here?”
