After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies

"Alright, alright, since we're all allies, let's just sit down and eat together," Lin Yuqing interrupted Si Wen with a headache, saying, "We can also discuss some things, don't you think?"

Zhang Kaifeng snapped his fingers, pulled up a chair and sat down. Without any hesitation, he picked up a knife and fork, cut a piece of beef, put it in his mouth, and said, "I think this is a good idea. I'm also hungry. Let's start eating."

Seeing Zhang Kaifeng ruin everything he had carefully prepared, Si Wen gritted his teeth in hatred. But seeing that Lin Yuqing had already sat down, Si Wen had no choice but to have someone prepare another chair and squeeze between the two of them.

Zhang Kaifeng started eating without a care in the world, while Lin Yuqing, not wanting the situation to become awkward, also started cutting the beef. But just as she was about to eat, she noticed Si Wen watching her longingly from the side, so she could only twitch her lips and give half of the plate of beef to Si Wen.

Although sharing food with Lin Yuqing was rather uncouth, being able to taste the beef that Lin Yuqing had personally cut was still a very happy thing. So Si Wen gritted his teeth and took the plate, carefully savoring it.

Seeing that Si Wen was eating cautiously, Zhang Kaifeng couldn't help but "kindly" say, "If you're not full, I can share some of mine with you!"

As he spoke, Zhang Kaifeng pushed the horribly disfigured steak forward, causing Si Wen to frown repeatedly.

That bastard, he definitely did it on purpose! Zhang Kaifeng, I'll definitely settle this score with you!

Si Wen glared fiercely at Zhang Kaifeng before looking away and slurping down a mouthful of red wine.

Seeing that the two of them had calmed down, Lin Yuqing couldn't wait to ask, "Kaifeng, didn't you say you already had a plan? What is it? Tell me."

Wiping his mouth with a handkerchief, Zhang Kaifeng said calmly, "I discovered a little pattern in the Xiao family's sentry duty today. We can take advantage of this pattern to make the Xiao family think we'll make our move in the garden. Once they've gathered all their forces in the garden, we can then secretly smuggle Xuan'er out of the Xiao family's territory."

Si Wen had regained his elegant and composed demeanor, leisurely took a sip of red wine, and said disdainfully, "You make it sound so easy, as if the Xiao family members are all idiots!"

Although Si Wen's tone was not good, Zhang Kaifeng did not intend to argue with him. Instead, he humbly asked, "By the way, didn't you say you have Xuan'er's stand-in? It will come in very handy later."

Lin Yuqing was taken aback, not expecting Zhang Kaifeng to still remember this matter, and quickly spoke up to stop him, saying, "Kaifeng, I don't want to replace Xuan'er with another child, that's not fair."

Patting Lin Yuqing's hand reassuringly, Zhang Kaifeng smiled gently and said, "I didn't say I was going to use a real child as a stunt double, so don't worry."

"Ok?"

Lin Yuqing's dazed look was especially adorable, and Zhang Kaifeng really wanted to reach out and pinch her cute little nose. However, considering Hou Gui's reaction, Zhang Kaifeng could only restrain himself.

Pointing to the large doll in the corner, Zhang Kaifeng said, "Toys these days are getting more and more realistic. If you don't look closely, you might think they're real people."

Lin Yuqing didn't react at first, but after her eyes darted around, she asked, "You mean, get a doll to replace Xuan'er? But wouldn't the security guards be stupid enough to not be able to tell the difference between a real person and a doll?"

“I guess they don’t usually have much contact with Xuan’er. Xuan’er has a bad temper and doesn’t like others getting close to him, especially when he’s painting.”

It has to be said that Zhang Kaifeng really understands Xuan'er; his summary is completely accurate. But no matter how you look at it, replacing Xuan'er with a doll still seems unreliable.

Seeing Lin Yuqing's suspicious look, Zhang Kaifeng handed her his salad and said, "I'll take care of this, so you don't need to worry about it. Here, have some of your favorite salmon salad."

"Thank you." Lin Yuqing took the plate and took a bite casually. Suddenly, she paused, looked at the plate, and exclaimed, "This tastes really good!"

Si Wen was afraid that Zhang Kaifeng, that shameless guy, would steal his credit, so he quickly interjected, "I knew you would like it. This salmon was air-freighted from Hokkaido, it's very fresh."

After savoring it carefully, Lin Yuqing nodded and said, "Indeed, it seems like you can taste the freshness of the ocean."

Seeing that Lin Yuqing had acknowledged his hard work, Si Wen glanced at Zhang Kaifeng with a smug look, full of provocation.

Zhang Kaifeng, on the other hand, seemed to be looking at a naive child, smiling while shaking his head helplessly.

Damn it, what kind of expression is that?!

Gripping the knife and fork with hatred, Siwen's eyes were terrifying, as if he wanted to kill someone.

Although she thought the salad was delicious, Lin Yuqing only ate two or three bites before putting down her fork and looking at Zhang Kaifeng, asking, "Even if the security personnel can't find anything, how much time can this doll buy us?"

“It will take at least two hours,” Zhang Kaifeng said, seeing the salad left aside. He felt it was a waste to waste the plate, so he picked it up again and ate as he spoke. “While the fake Xuan’er is painting, those guys will keep an eye on him, and we can take the real Xuan’er away from the Xiao family.”

Seeing that Zhang Kaifeng had eaten all the food he had carefully prepared for Lin Yuqing, Si Wen was very unhappy. He snorted, "Hmph, it's not like Xuan'er is willing to leave with you. I'm just kindly reminding you, that child wants to stay in the Xiao family to inherit the family business, how could she leave with you so easily?"

In fact, Zhang Kaifeng knew that Xuan'er wanted to go home with Lin Yuqing, but she was just pretending to be unwilling because she was worried about Lin Yuqing's safety.

If he was confident he could get the mother and daughter back, he would definitely agree to cooperate. However, Si Wen was unaware of this.

Of course, it's also an advantage that Si Wen doesn't know the truth, as Zhang Kaifeng can use this to lower his guard.

Turning to look at Lin Yuqing, Zhang Kaifeng seemed to have heeded Si Wen's warning and began to make arrangements: "Yuqing, starting tomorrow, I will send you to Xuan'er's side. But your hearing will only last for a short time, so you'd better seize the opportunity and persuade Xuan'er to cooperate with us."

Lin Yuqing nodded seriously and said, "Okay, I will definitely try my best."

Si Wen knew how dangerous the Xiao family was. And there was that crazy Lilith there, constantly trying to tear Lin Yuqing apart. Didn't Zhang Kaifeng know any of this? Yet he still wanted to send Lin Yuqing to the Xiao family—did he even truly care about her?!

Si Wen frowned and glared at Zhang Kaifeng, then began to persuade Lin Yuqing, saying, "Yuqing, in my opinion, Xuan'er still likes the Xiao family very much. Why don't you go along with the child's wishes and let him be? Perhaps this will be a good experience for him!"
