"Ah!"

Yan Niannian gave a cold laugh.

Despite her earnest explanations, Zhuo Yuchen didn't believe her in the slightest.

What's more, now?

He has always only trusted Xu Fei.

In his heart, Xu Fei was kind and noble, while she...

She's just a petty, scheming woman.

"So, Zhuo Yuchen, what are you doing right now?"

"I, as your ex-wife, have no obligation to play those games of changing policies all the time."

"Also, I'm very busy, so I won't trouble you, Mr. Zhuo." Yan Niannian turned away from him. "The door is over there. Take care, and don't bother seeing me out."

Zhuo Yuchen's pupils were tightly constricted.

His jawline was taut and his aura was heavy.

Looking at that indifferent profile, he felt a tightness in his chest.

The two parted on bad terms.

Before leaving, the assistant glanced at Yan Niannian hesitantly.

In the car.

Looking at the silent Zhuo Yuchen, the assistant hesitated for a moment before cautiously speaking, "Mr. Zhuo, Miss Yan...you don't have amnesia and don't remember you and the young master, do you?"

"Then just now..."

Zhuo Yuchen narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

He instantly understood his implication.

damn it!

He was so distracted by that damned woman Yan Niannian that he overlooked such a huge loophole.

How could someone who has lost their memory still remember what happened back then?

Is it...

Is she faking amnesia?

Is it all just to divorce him?

Thinking of this possibility, Zhuo Yuchen's expression turned even uglier.

However, before he could even begin his investigation, trouble struck.

Two hours later, Xu Fei called.

Her voice was choked with emotion and urgent, "Yu Chen, Xuan Xuan has been beaten! Come to the hospital quickly!"

Zhuo Yuchen rushed to the hospital.

He paused for a moment when he saw the assailant.

It was actually Yan Niannian.

There was a man standing next to her.

Fei Siyu?!

He knows him.

He is Yan Niannian's senior.

He was two years older than her.

He always took good care of her when they were in school.

Furthermore, Fei Siyu also enjoyed working as a caregiver at the orphanage. Therefore, the two of them often helped out at the orphanage together before, and they seemed to have a close relationship.

In the corner, a timid little girl sat on a chair, her head bowed.

Xu Fei was comforting her son, whose eyes were red and swollen.

Upon seeing him, Zhuo Xuan could no longer hold back and burst into tears, crying out, "Dad!"

Zhuo Yuchen hesitated for a moment.

Still unable to bear it, she squatted down and picked up Zhuo Xuan.

"what happened?"

"She beat me up with that wild child because of that man."

She wrapped her arms around Zhuo Yuchen's neck, angrily pointed at Yan Niannian and accused her of her crimes, then raised her hand in front of Zhuo Yuchen's eyes.

Zhuo Yuchen looked down.

Zhuo Xuan's palms were red and swollen.

Zhuo Yuchen's eyes instantly darkened.

"Yan Niannian, is this how you act as a mother?" He started by scolding her without even asking what happened, just like before. "You've really gone too far by beating your child like this for some shady person."

Yan Niannian's hand, which was supporting her at her side, was a little stiff.

He looked helplessly at the father and son, his gaze finally settling on Zhuo Xuan's distorted little face.

Heartbroken and disappointed.

This child is beyond redemption.

He secretly took the little girl away, deliberately led her to a secluded place, and then had his bodyguard hit her head hard with a baseball bat.

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, the senior student rushed out and took the hit for her.

She's fine.

But the senior's hand was injured.

Otherwise, if that baseball bat had hit her hard... it's questionable whether she'd even be able to stand here breathing right now.

Ah!

These are the children she loved with her life...

"Is it okay!"

Yan Niannian's face looked terrible, and Fei Siyu couldn't help but place her hand on her shoulder with concern.

Yan Niannian turned her head.

She forced a smile at him.

His eyes were filled with gratitude and guilt.

Fei Siyu smiled and shook her head reassuringly at her.

Tell her you're fine.

do not worry.

Zhuo Yuchen narrowed his eyes dangerously as his gaze swept over Fei Siyu's hand resting on Yan Niannian's shoulder.

His already cold gaze grew even colder.

It is deep and unfathomable.

It's impossible to tell what he's thinking.

Yan Niannian looked away.

When her gaze fell on Zhuo Yuchen again, the smile on her face disappeared. "Mr. Zhuo, when you question someone, shouldn't you first find out what your son has done to be polite?"

Zhuo Yuchen was displeased by the questioning tone.

But he still glanced questioningly at the security guard next to him.

The security guard was startled.

There was no room for concealment; I told them everything.

Zhuo Yuchen frowned.

He instinctively looked at his son in his arms.

Zhuo Xuan guiltily avoided Zhuo Yuchen's gaze.

Seeing this, Xu Fei spoke up, deliberately taking the blame upon herself, "Yu Chen, don't blame Xuan Xuan. I saw that Xuan Xuan was in low spirits, so I used this reason to comfort him."

"Who would have thought it would turn out like this?"

"Miss Yan, I'm so sorry..."

“Aunt Feifei, you don’t need to apologize to her.” Zhuo Xuan still resented Yan Niannian for caring about other children but not about her own affairs, so he deliberately shouted loudly, “You did it all for me.”

"Unlike some people who can't distinguish between inside and outside, they are not fit to be mothers at all."

Zhuo Xuan used to say this all the time.

When I'm angry.

When protecting Xu Fei.

Zhuo Yuchen always acquiesced whenever he heard this.

She was devastated before.

My heart aches, and I feel like crying.

But now, Yan Niannian only feels annoyed.

Unwilling to get entangled with the father and son any longer, she said coldly, "Mr. Zhuo, discipline your son and stay away from me."

After saying that, she walked over to the little girl.

After picking the person up, he said to Fei Siyu, "Let's go!"

"it is good!"

Fei Siyu stood protectively beside Yan Niannian, worried that she might get tired, and reached out to take her in her arms. "Let me carry you!"

"No need!" Yan Niannian shook her head and refused. "Your hands are injured, let me do it, I can carry you."

Is she showing concern for herself?

Fei Siyu felt a warm feeling in her heart.

I didn't insist any further.

The two walked slowly out side by side.

Yan Niannian was also holding one in her arms.

From behind, they look harmonious... just like a family of three.

Zhuo Yuchen's brow twitched.

A chill crept into his pitch-black eyes.

For some reason, I felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhuo Xuan's eyes turned red with jealousy.

After leaving the hospital, Fei Siyu had to leave first.

Yan Niannian took the little girl back to the orphanage alone.

Gently placing the person on the bed, Yan Niannian asked softly, "What's your name?"

The little girl was a bit afraid of people.

She shrank back slightly, pursed her lips, and shook her head.

Not a word.

Her small body was stiff and unsure of what to do with her hands; she didn't even dare to look at Yan Niannian.

Yan Niannian's heart tightened.

Chest feels tight.

I feel depressed.

She couldn't imagine it, nor dared to imagine it.

What terrible trauma did this child suffer in the past to become so taciturn, timid, insecure, and unsociable?
