Song Wenyuan left, but returned early the next morning, bringing breakfast for Anning and Xiaonier.

An Ning was somewhat surprised: "Weren't you going to put someone on the train?"

Song Wenyuan didn't know how to begin, but he had no choice but to speak.

“My mom said… she will leave, but before she leaves, she wants to see her granddaughter one last time, and then she will leave.”

An Ning sneered: "What else did she say? Could it be that she suddenly realized she's been doing the wrong thing for the past few years and wants to make it up to her granddaughter?"

Song Wenyuan swallowed back the words he was about to say. Ma Cuihua had indeed said that, but he didn't believe it at all. However, she had left no room for negotiation, and as a grandmother, it was perfectly reasonable for her to want to see her granddaughter. He couldn't find a way to refuse, so he could only come back, thinking that if An Ning disagreed, he could find an excuse.

"I'm just back to make a show of it. I know you don't want to see her again, so..."

Before Song Wenyuan could finish speaking, An Ning stood up and said, "Let's go. Let me see what these two are up to. Why are they trying to lure me over here?"

In a flash, An Ning's words brought out details that Song Wenyuan had not noticed before.

Yes, his mother and sister insisted on seeing Chang Le, just to lure An Ning over there, right?

And yesterday, their words implied that they wanted things to pass peacefully, but weren't they plotting something he didn't know about?

Song Wenyuan frowned and stopped An Ning: "Forget it, you two shouldn't go. I'll handle this."

"You're going to solve this? How are you going to solve it? If you could solve it, you wouldn't be here right now." An Ning rolled her eyes and called to her daughter, "Changle, come here, Mom has something to tell you."

Upon hearing that she was going to see her grandmother, Shen Changle suddenly recalled the days she spent living in that cramped woodshed. Not only was the place dilapidated, but she was also bullied by Da Bao every day...

Children don't hide their emotions, and seeing that things were about to go wrong, Song Wenyuan quickly comforted her, "Grandma has realized her mistake now. She just wants to apologize to Ni'er. If Ni'er doesn't want to see her again, she won't."

Even so, Song Wenyuan still saw in his daughter's behavior the life she had lived at home in the past.

Shen Changle did not immediately agree to Song Wenyuan's offer. She hesitated until An Ning spoke up, saying that she wanted to see what the two people's purpose was. Only then did she slowly nod in agreement. However, Song Wenyuan ended up signing many unequal treaties between father and daughter.

The guesthouse in town.

Ma Cuihua asked Song Wenying, "Do you think Shen Anning will come along?"

"Mom, don't worry. Xiao Ni'er is Shen Anning's darling. As long as she knows, she definitely won't feel comfortable letting her come with Second Brother. After all, you are Second Brother's biological mother and Shen Anning's mother-in-law. Blood is thicker than water. You just need to apologize to her and you can ease the tension between you. In the future, Second Brother will still use the money he earns to support you two."

Song Wenying said this, but that wasn't what she really thought; she only wanted to resolve the issue of the child in her womb.

But it's simple. She just needs to pretend to have a miscarriage, forgive him generously, and ask for compensation. She doesn't believe the other party won't fall for it.

She even prepared chicken blood, which she obtained from a fellow villager nearby. She put it in a plastic bag and hid it in her underwear, so that the blood would seep out when she squeezed her legs together.

Just then, a noise came from outside.

"Mom, is it my second brother and the others who have arrived?" Song Wenying asked.

"I don't know, let's go see." Ma Cuihua was also unsure.

After all, they had said all sorts of ugly things to each other before. Now that they have suddenly changed their attitude, won't the second son be suspicious?

However, they soon realized that the footsteps outside were heading towards their house, and there was a knock on the door.

As soon as Song Wenying opened the door, she immediately saw An Ning standing behind Song Wenyuan, holding her child's hand.

She quickly forced a smile and walked past Song Wenyuan to greet him: "Sister-in-law, it's been a long time!"

To everyone's surprise, An Ning took a step back, avoiding the outstretched hand and the physical contact between them.

Song Wenying wasn't embarrassed. If Shen Anning didn't want to, so be it. There was still a child, wasn't there?

The child doesn't understand anything, so he's more suitable than Shen Anning.

Thinking of her little emperor at home, Song Wenying's smile widened as she turned to Shen Changle: "Oh, long time no see! Our little girl has not only grown taller, but she's also become more beautiful..."

Just as she was about to reach out and touch Shen Changle's head, An Ning was a step faster, using a clever move to pull the child behind her.

“I don’t think we’re that familiar yet. Just talk, don’t get physical.” An Ning showed her no respect whatsoever.

Song Wenyuan, who was being talked to by Ma Cuihua, noticed the commotion and immediately took a step back, standing between his wife and sister.

Song Wenying was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she couldn't lash out on the spot, so she could only hold back.

Fortunately, they still had time and weren't in a hurry.

An Ning didn't want to get involved with the wicked Song Wenying, so she turned to Ma Cuihua and asked, "I heard you're going to apologize to Chang Le?"

These words almost broke Ma Cuihua's composure. Her expression shifted constantly, her mind preoccupied with her second son's monthly salary. Finally, she managed to hold back, her lips twitching as she forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Yes...yes. I was wrong before, neglecting you and your daughter. I finally made it to the island, and I wanted to properly apologize to Ni'er. After all, we're family..."

"No need," An Ning interrupted her directly. "The harm you caused us in the past cannot be undone. Now, Chang Le and I don't want to have anything to do with you. Of course, if you have anything to do with Song Wenyuan, that's his business and has nothing to do with me."

"You!" Ma Cuihua almost cursed, but thinking of the money in the future, she held back again. "I don't want to talk to you. Let my granddaughter come and talk to me herself."

Anning pulled Shen Changle in front of her: "Come here, Changle, tell Grandma what you think."

Shen Changle was still a little scared when she remembered being pushed down by her grandmother, but seeing her mother's encouraging gaze, she mustered up her courage and said, "Grandma, didn't you say I was a burden? I don't want to be a burden. I just want to be with Mom."

Seeing her daughter bravely take this step, Anning stood in front of Shen Changle again: "Did you hear that? My daughter said she doesn't want to be a money-losing burden for your Song family. You can save your concern for your precious grandson."

"How dare you talk to your mother like that?"

Song Wenying, who had been watching from the sidelines for a while, felt that her chance had come.
