After the divorce, I trained my dog, and the scumbag father and son knelt down at my door.

Zhuo Yuchen was eating so earnestly.

As her understanding was overturned, Yan Niannian's expression became complicated.

Mixed feelings.

But he showed absolutely no mercy.

"What's wrong, Zhuo Yuchen? Don't you like the chicken soup? Why are you drinking it so slowly?" Yan Niannian raised an eyebrow, her expression turning cold again.

"No, no..."

Noticing Yan Niannian's dissatisfaction, Zhuo Yuchen quickly explained.

However, his voice was somewhat low and forlorn.

"I'm afraid if I drink too fast, you'll leave..."

He lowered his head, his demeanor completely devoid of sharp edges, like a big boy who had done something wrong.

Yan Niannian was slightly taken aback.

She took a deep sniff.

She had never seen Zhuo Yuchen like this before; he seemed somewhat unfamiliar.

It's even... a little ridiculous.

Belated affection is worse than grass.

She doesn't need it now.

Zhuo Yuchen's willingness to let her humiliate herself made Yan Niannian feel bored.

She looked away and turned to sit down in the chair.

No one spoke anymore.

The atmosphere in the ward changed, becoming somewhat subtle...

This whole scene was witnessed by the male servant who was deliberately peeking through the door.

He glared fiercely at Yan Niannian before turning and leaving.

The chicken soup is finished.

Seeing this, Yan Niannian slowly stood up.

Once she's packed up the thermos, she can leave.

Watching Yan Niannian's movements, Zhuo Yuchen's heart tightened and he became nervous.

Is she leaving already?

"Um..." Zhuo Yuchen stood up nervously, following behind Yan Niannian, trying to make conversation so he could spend more time with her, "Niannian, can I chat with you?"

"What do you want to talk about?" Yan Niannian asked perfunctorily.

Zhuo Yuchen's eyes lit up. "How about we talk about the happy times we had together before?"

His hand paused.

Narrowing her eyes, Yan Niannian's eyes flashed with a mocking light.

She gave a cold laugh, slowly turned around, her gaze landing on Zhuo Yuchen's face, and leisurely crossed her arms. "Then tell me! I want to hear it."

"When we got married, the wedding banquet was held at the most luxurious hotel in the city. That day you wore a wedding dress, and we...we..."

Zhuo Yuchen suddenly stopped speaking.

His expression changed slightly as if he had thought of something.

"Why did you stop talking about it? What happened between us that day?"

"Ok?"

Yan Niannian took a step forward, pressing forward.

The smile on her lips was tinged with mockery.

"We..." Zhuo Yuchen's lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't continue.

He was too ashamed to say it.

"Since you won't tell me, then let me tell you! Just because of one phone call from Xu Fei, you left our wedding banquet without even looking at me."

"Ah!"

"You made me the laughingstock of the whole city with your wedding for one person."

"Zhuo Yuchen, do you think this kind of time is happy?"

Zhuo Yuchen's heart skipped a beat.

Guilt spiraled out of control, transforming into a terrifying demon that tore at his heart.

How outrageous and unforgivable he was back then.

"Niannian, I'm sorry..."

Feeling flustered and resentful, after apologizing, Zhuo Yuchen couldn't wait to search for the memories in his mind, wanting to prove to Yan Niannian that he did have feelings for her.

"After we got married, you said you wanted a ring that belonged to us..."

"No, no! Let's talk about your favorite flowers. You said the villa's garden lacks a touch of green, and you love lotus leaves the most, so you want to plant a patch of them..."

The sound stopped suddenly.

Unable to continue speaking, Zhuo Yuchen's expression grew even more unpleasant.

The more he tried to prove himself, the more guilty he felt.

Whether it was the ring Yan Niannian wanted or the green bamboo she wanted to plant, in the end, they all became unattainable because of Xu Fei's sabotage.

"See, Zhuo Yuchen, we've never had a happy time together."

Yan Niannian gave a self-deprecating laugh.

The last lingering sadness in my heart finally dissipated completely at this moment.

"No!" Yan Niannian's appearance completely threw Zhuo Yuchen into a panic.

She didn't care anymore.

Does she really... not want him anymore?

“Niannian, it was all my fault before. You can hit me, you can scold me, just don’t ignore me, okay?” Zhuo Yuchen rushed up to Yan Niannian and grabbed her hand.

He hit himself hard.

One after another.

I just hope Yan Niannian can get some relief.

Yan Niannian simply looked at him calmly, her expression indifferent.

He let Zhuo Yuchen do as he pleased without stopping him.

"Niannian, let me make it up to you. Let's start over, okay?" Zhuo Yuchen's eyes were slightly red as he pleaded humbly.

Upon hearing this, Yan Niannian finally reacted, "You really want to make amends?"

"Really, Niannian, I can give you whatever you want, even my life!" Gently taking Yan Niannian's hand in his, Zhuo Yuchen lowered his head and lovingly placed a light kiss on the back of her hand.

That devout look...

This reminded Yan Niannian of a dog she used to keep at the orphanage.

Ah!

It's quite funny.

However, Yan Niannian's heart was no longer stirred by any emotion.

She slowly began to speak, "Zhuo Yuchen, you made me lose face at our wedding banquet back then. Since you want to make amends, hold a proposal banquet for me at the same location three days from now."

"A proposal banquet?"

Zhuo Yuchen's pupils dilated sharply.

He stared intently at Yan Niannian's delicate little face, his heart filled with overwhelming joy.

Does Nian Nian's offer of compensation mean that I still have a chance, and a possibility of winning her back?

At this moment, Zhuo Yuchen was as happy as a child, and there was no trace of his aloof and unfathomable demeanor.

He excitedly pulled Yan Niannian into his arms and murmured emotionally, "Niannian, thank you for still giving me a chance."

I will never let you down again.

"At the proposal banquet, I will make you the happiest woman in the world."

Yan Niannian did not speak.

She wanted to push him away, but she held back because of her own gaze.

But his eyes were filled with coldness.

……

The Zhuo family.

Dong Yan sat on the sofa, her chest heaving with anger, her face pale.

Having grown accustomed to being in charge, she now felt a strong sense of crisis.

damn it!

Why did things turn out this way?

Is Yan Niannian, that little bitch, doing all these things and using despicable means to bewitch Yu Chen, just to take his place and become the matriarch of the Zhuo family?

snort!

dream!

Don't even think about it.

Thinking of this, Dong Yan clenched her fist, raised it high, and angrily slammed it against the sofa armrest.

In this oppressive atmosphere, Zhuo Xuan returned home from school.

He was in a low mood after the kindergarten parent-child activity ended.

listless.

Hearing footsteps, Dong Yan subconsciously turned her head and glanced around.

Eyes facing each other.

Perhaps it was because Dong Yan's expression was so unpleasant that Zhuo Xuan's steps froze.

"grandmother……"

He called out to her awkwardly, then lowered his head, realizing something was wrong and hurriedly prepared to leave.

But to everyone's surprise, Dong Yan suddenly shouted at him, "Stop!"
