Chapter 104 - 104: When Did Zhanyan Contact Xiaobao?
However, the moment Yu Anwan turned around, Yu Xiaobao immediately smiled and took the initiative to snuggle up to her.
Yu Anwan knew Yu Xiaobao too well. Unless she had something important to discuss, Yu Xiaobao wouldn’t act so affectionate.
“Tell me, what’s on your mind?” Yu Anwan shook her head and asked directly.
Yu Xiaobao didn’t speak immediately. She just continued rubbing against Yu Anwan, trying to convey her thoughts.
She seemed like she wanted to say something, but the words seemed stuck in her throat.
With innocent eyes, she looked at Yu Anwan, and her long eyelashes blinked, giving her an innocent and pitiful appearance.
“Xiaobao.” Yu Anwan’s voice softened.
“Mommy…” Yu Xiaobao tried to sound nonchalant but was nervous. She spoke softly but clearly, “Have you considered what you promised?” Yu Xiaobao asked as she looked at Yu Anwan with an unblinking gaze.
“What did I agree to consider?” Yu Anwan frowned.
“Mommy, have you forgotten?” Yu Xiaobao widened her eyes, appearing incredulous. “You promised to consider having the surgery for great-grandfather?”
Yu Xiaobao subconsciously cleared her throat, her neck shrinking nervously.
She was genuinely worried that Yu Anwan might react strongly and reprimand her.
However, Yu Xiaobao’s gaze remained cautious as he thought about Wen Zhanyan’s previous messages.
Yu Xiaobao was extremely worried.
Great-grandfather’s condition was serious, and Wen Zhanyan had been mistreated by the Wen family.
This was intolerable!
If it weren’t for the fact that Yu Xiaobao couldn’t go there right now, she would have rushed over with a machete in hand, without showing any mercy to those cruel people.
The thought of Wen Zhanyan’s sadness and great-grandfather’s condition in the ICU weighed heavily on Yu Xiaobao’s heart.
Sobbing softly, Yu Xiaobao couldn’t help but cry, feeling devastated. Wen Zhanyan had never spoken to her so seriously and sincerely before.
Now that his brother was in such a state, why wouldn’t Mommy agree?
As Yu Xiaobao’s thoughts wandered, tears welled up in her eves as she looked
at Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan felt a headache coming on. She subconsciously looked at Yu Dabao for help.
Yu Dabao shrugged. He had no intention of helping at all. He was telling Yu Anwan what he meant.
Xioabao was looking for trouble with Yu Anwan, not him. He didn’t want to make things difficult for himself.
Yu Anwan glared at Yu Dabao. Yu Dabao responded by lowering his head and focusing on his tablet, pretending not to hear.
“Mommy didn’t refuse, Xiaobao. It’s just that I haven’t come up with a good solution yet, that’s all,” Yu Anwan gently reassured Yu Xiaobao.
Suddenly, Yu Xiaobao’s WeChat vibrated, making her extremely nervous. He knew it was a message from Wen Zhanyan.
Seeing the cautious look in Yu Xiaobao’s eyes, Yu Anwan narrowed her eyes.
Before Yu Xiaobao could react, Yu Anwan suddenly snatched her phone away.
“Mommy?” Yu Xiaobao was taken aback, not quite understanding what Yu Anwan intended to do.
With her clear, grape-like eyes, Yu Xiaobao looked passively at Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan was straightforward. Without saying a word, she directly opened Yu Xiaobao’s WeChat on the phone.
Yu Xiaobao cursed in her heart. She wanted to snatch the phone back, but Yu Anwan had already seen Yu Xiaobao’s WeChat message.
This time, Yu Xiaobao was even more depressed. Her face was drooping, and she looked as aggrieved as she could be.
However, she dared not make a sound and could only sneakily watch Yu Anwan from the corner of her eye.
“Who is this?” Yu Anwan pointed at the WeChat conversation involving Wen Zhanyan and asked directly.
With lightning speed, Yu Xiaobao’s mind raced as she saw Yu Anwan pointing at the WeChat group.
Yu Anwan was a person who respected her child very much. Therefore, even if she saw this unfamiliar WeChat, she did not click to check the specific content of the chat.
But from the last chat, Yu Anwan had some ideas about it.
This was Wen Jin’s son.
However, when did Wen Zhanyan start communicating with Xiaobao? Why was she completely unaware of it?
Yu Anwan’s gaze deepened as she thought about this.
Her gaze fell on Xiaobao and she became serious.
Yu Xiaobao didn’t dare to lie under Yu Anwan’s gaze and stammered, “…It’s, um… It’s… Brother Zhanyan!”
As Yu Xiaobao spoke, she became increasingly anxious. She stomped her foot, mustering the courage to look directly at Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan narrowed her eyes and asked, “When did you two meet? How come I didn’t know about it?”
“Oh, it’s just… just… we accidentally bumped into each other at the buffet restaurant during our vacation!” Yu Xiaobao rushed to explain, her words becoming somewhat stuttered, and her little face crumpled in worry.
Although she was telling a lie, it was a well-intentioned one, wasn’t it?
Yu Xiaobao gazed innocently at Yu Anwan, but her eyes betrayed her anxiety.
Afterward, Yu Xiaobao cautiously glanced at Yu Dabao, hoping he would lend a helping hand.
However, Yu Dabao didn’t even bat an eye. “I don’t know the brother you met outside. I’ve never seen him before. Don’t even think about involving me. I
want nothing to do with this.”
He distanced himself from the situation.
Normally, Yu Xiaobao would have pounced on Yu Dabao and playfully bitten him.
However, now Yu Xiaobao understood that Yu Dabao didn’t want Yu Anwan to know about their reunion. At most, Yu Xiaobao would be exposed, not Yu Dabao.
Yu Xiaobao pursed her lips and fell silent.
Yu Anwan remained calm as she looked at Yu Xiaobao as if she was trying to find some clues from her expression.
In this situation, Yu Xiaobao took the initiative to hug Yu Anwan and sway on her body.
Her little mouth kept chattering, never stopping.
The brainwashing campaign had begun.
“Mommy, Brother Zhanyan is pitiful. He’s stuck in a difficult situation, caught between conflicting sides.” Yu Xiaobao began to exaggerate Wen Zhanyan’s situation to appeal to Yu Anwan’s sympathy. “Mommy isn’t by his side, and he only has Daddy, but Daddy doesn’t care much about him. He gives him countless homework every day, leaving him no time to play!”
Yu Xiaobao’s eyes filled with tears as she spoke.
Yu Xiaobao had grown up in a carefree environment, she spent most of her time playing. Yu Anwan had never assigned her any homework.
So, Yu Xiaobao couldn’t even imagine how Wen Zhanyan managed to complete his daily homework.
“And if he doesn’t finish the homework, his daddy punishes him! He locks him up and mistreats him!” Yu Xiaobao began to fabricate stories.
However, Yu Xiaobao had no intention of apologizing to Wen Jin at all..
