The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

night.

Xie Tingrui brought everything the designer needed to the hospital, as requested by Li Zhanting.

He was also accompanied by Jiang Xiaonian and Jiang Xiaobao.

Shen Yanran looked at the mother and son beside Xie Tingrui with great surprise, "Who are they?"

Jiang Xiaonian came along out of necessity. Xiao Bao was so attached to Xie Tingrui that he wouldn't let go even when he was asleep. She didn't want to leave her son alone, so she had no choice but to come along.

She was about to explain that she had no relationship with Xie Tingrui when the man beside her introduced her very naturally: "My fiancée Jiang Xiaonian and my son Xiaobao."

Li Zhanting knew Jiang Xiaonian; she was the woman Xie Tingrui could never forget and had been searching for for a long time.

He had brought her to a gathering of his brothers before. She was a college student who had no parents. Apart from being good-looking, she did not meet the Xie family's standards for a wife in any other way.

When Xie Tingrui's mother found out, she was indeed strongly opposed to it.

After all, the Xie family is not an ordinary family. They want a woman of equal social standing as their daughter-in-law, not a wild child who came from an orphanage.

But Xie Tingrui, a playboy, fell hopelessly in love with Jiang Xiaonian.

Back then, they laughed at him, saying he acted like a college student who had just started dating, indulging in all sorts of romantic gestures.

But in just three months, the girl disappeared without a trace, as if she had never existed.

Xie Tingrui searched almost the entire city of Haicheng but couldn't find her.

It was from that time that he reverted to being the unrestrained and free-spirited eldest son of the Xie family.

Now, this woman whom Xie Tingrui both loves and hates has appeared in the United States with a boy of about three years old, which is both unexpected and surprising.

Jiang Xiaonian knew Li Zhanting and had met them several times during the time she was with Xie Tingrui.

They all knew that they were famous young masters from wealthy families in Haicheng and even throughout China, and there was also a guy named Song Yue. They had an incredibly close relationship, like an iron triangle.

At the time, they were not optimistic about her being with Xie Tingrui, but they still respected her and never made fun of her background.

But now, she and Xie Tingrui have been separated for almost five years, and she doesn't want to keep entangled with each other.

So she didn't want Li Zhanting to misunderstand their relationship, and immediately denied it, saying, "I am not his fiancée, and Xiaobao is not her son."

Xie Tingrui's previously cheerful face immediately turned cold. "What did you say?"

In order to make Xie Tingrui give up completely, Jiang Xiaonian did not hesitate to use cruel words to provoke him, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? We broke up a long time ago, and I can't possibly be your fiancée. Besides, Xiaobao is my child with another man, so please stop deceiving yourself!"

Xie Tingrui was truly hurt by her. "Jiang Xiaonian, I say you are who you are, and I don't care why you left back then. Now that I've found you, you are my fiancée, and Xiaobao is my son!"

Xiao Bao was clearly startled by the sudden argument between the two. "Mom... Uncle, please don't fight, okay?"

Shen Yanran didn't know what had happened between the two of them, but the child was innocent.

She felt extremely sorry for the poor little guy who looked like he was about to cry. "If you two want to fight, go outside and do it. Don't scare the child."

Jiang Xiaonian then realized what she had just done, and her mind was in turmoil. She didn't want to stay there any longer. "I'm sorry, I was too excited. Xiaobao, come on, let's go home with Mommy."

For the first time, Xiao Bao felt Xie Tingrui's fatherly warmth and asked with some reluctance, "Mom, can I see Uncle again tomorrow?"

Jiang Xiaonian squatted down to be at the same eye level as Xiaobao and said, "Xiaobao, Uncle has a lot of things to do tomorrow, we can't bother him, right?"

Xiao Bao nodded dejectedly, "Okay, I understand."

Xie Tingrui genuinely loved Xiaobao and naturally couldn't bear to be separated from him so soon. "Jiang Xiaonian, it's one thing for you to be ruthless to me, but how can you be so ruthless to your own son?"

Jiang Xiaonian ignored him, picked up Xiaobao and left.

Xie Tingrui was both angry and helpless; he also had his pride, you know.

Having been rejected by Jiang Xiaonian time and time again, his pride was finally breaking down.

Shen Yanran could tell that their relationship was special, and the little boy named Xiaobao looked so much like Xie Tingrui that they seemed like father and son.

Did Xie Tingrui really not notice?

Moreover, in her opinion, the woman wasn't as heartless as she claimed; she felt there was some misunderstanding.

Shen Yanran pondered for two seconds, then asked in a calm voice, "Mr. Xie, aren't you going to chase after him?"

Xie Tingrui chuckled self-deprecatingly, "What are you chasing? Didn't you hear what she just said?"

Shen Yanran could tell that Xie Tingrui cared a lot about that woman, so she kindly reminded him, "I heard you, but are you sure you won't regret it if you don't pursue her?"

Li Zhanting also encouraged Xie Tingrui, saying, "Arui, go ahead, don't miss out again."

Xie Tingrui raised his head and looked at Li Zhanting on the hospital bed. They exchanged a few seconds of glances, and then, as if he had suddenly figured something out, he clenched his fist and chased after him.

Jiang Xiaonian and Xiao Bao had been gone for a while when her phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the caller ID; it was her workplace. She couldn't ignore it, so she put Xiaobao back down on the ground. "Xiaobao, be good, wait a minute, Mommy needs to answer the phone."

Xiao Bao nodded obediently and waited quietly to the side.

A middle-aged woman's voice hurriedly said on the phone: "Xiao Nian, the hospital has received more than a dozen car accident patients and we are short-staffed. You need to come and help right now."

"I'm sorry, head nurse, I can't leave right now. I have to take care of my son." Jiang Xiaonian had to send Xiaobao home and ask the neighbors to look after him before she could go to work with peace of mind.

The head nurse said in a very serious voice, "Xiao Nian, I know it's not easy for you to take care of the child alone, but this is an order. You have to come, or you won't be coming to work anymore!"

Jiang Xiaonian had a hard time finding this nursing job. Because of Li Zhanting's affair, she was afraid of retaliation, so she applied for a transfer to another hospital.

She is still in her internship and absolutely cannot be fired, otherwise she will have trouble making a living in the future.

Seeing that his mother had put down her phone, Xiao Bao rubbed his eyes and said sleepily, "Mom, I'm sleepy. I want to go home and sleep."

Faced with the choice between work requirements and his son's needs, Jiang Xiaonian found himself in a dilemma.

Xie Tingrui never expected that he would catch up with Jiang Xiaonian so quickly, and even overhear her answering the phone.

Knowing that she was having difficulties, he took the initiative to say, "Leave Xiaobao to me, you go and do your work."

Jiang Xiaonian was taken aback when she heard Xie Tingrui's voice, "You..."

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Xiaonian's phone rang again. It was the head nurse calling, "Jiang Xiaonian, how much longer until you arrive?"

Seeing that Xiao Bao was already in Xie Tingrui's arms, Jiang Xiaonian closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Fifteen minutes."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xiaonian walked up to Xie Tingrui, cupped Xiaobao's soft little face in her hands, and said gently, "Xiaobao, Mommy has to go to work. You stay with Uncle for a while, and Mommy will come to pick you up as soon as I finish work, okay?"

Xiao Bao was naturally willing to be with Xie Tingrui, and without hesitation agreed, "Okay, Mom, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be a good boy and listen to Uncle."

Jiang Xiaonian smiled with relief, then gently kissed Xiaobao on the cheek, "Good boy, Mommy loves you."

Xie Tingrui longed for Jiang Xiaonian's kiss to land on his face as well. "I want one too."

Jiang Xiaonian glared at him irritably, "Take good care of Xiaobao for me, I'm leaving."

In the ward.

After Xie Tingrui left, Shen Yanran raised her suspicions to Li Zhanting, "Don't you think Xiaobao and Xie Tingrui look a lot alike?"

Li Zhanting nodded, "Yes, especially when Arui was little, they were almost identical."

Xie Tingrui himself didn't realize it, but Li Zhanting, who grew up with him, noticed it almost the instant he saw Xiao Bao; otherwise, he wouldn't have urged his brother to chase after him.

"Do you think Xiao Bao might have been secretly born by that woman, without Xie Tingrui knowing?" Shen Yanran practically imagined a whole drama.

That's how it was portrayed when I was bored watching TV dramas. Otherwise, how could two people who aren't related by blood look so alike?

No sooner had she finished speaking than Xie Tingrui reappeared before them, holding Xiaobao.

Shen Yanran asked almost instinctively, "You took the child back?"

"Sister-in-law, I'm not a child trafficker, why would I snatch a child?" Xie Tingrui was both amused and exasperated. He had no choice but to explain helplessly, "There was an emergency at the hospital where Jiang Xiaonian works, so I went there and brought the child back."

Since becoming pregnant, Shen Yanran has been easily overcome with maternal love, and she can't take her eyes off cute little children. She smiled and waved to Xiao Bao, "Really, Xiao Bao? Come here, let Auntie take a good look at you. How old are you?"

Xiao Bao is actually a very sensitive child. He can tell who truly likes him and who is just pretending. So he walked up to Shen Yanran with his little legs and said in a childish voice, "Auntie, I'm three and a half years old."

Shen Yanran stroked Xiao Bao's soft little face and continued to ask with a smile, "So cute! Are you hungry? Auntie has some delicious food here, would you like to try some?"

"Thank you, Auntie, I'm not hungry." Xiao Bao gently shook his head, then looked at Shen Yanran's already protruding belly, blinked his big eyes and asked, "Auntie, do you have a baby in your belly?"

"Yes, Auntie has two little babies here. Would you like to touch them?" Shen Yanran gently interacted with the baby.

Xiao Bao raised his little hand and touched Shen Yanran's belly. As if sensing something, he immediately said happily, "Haha, Auntie has two little babies here, a little brother and a little sister."

Everyone present was astonished by these words.

What kind of ability does Xiao Bao have? He even knew that Shen Yanran was pregnant with twins, and even said the genders!
