Chapter 103 Private Photos

At the dining table, Xie Jian sat next to Jiang Manman, eating obediently. He ate at a leisurely pace, displaying excellent dining manners.

Jiang Tiancheng and Chen Suyan treated him well, constantly serving him food and showing concern for his well-being. They got along quite well with him.

Jiang Che, ever the chatterbox, couldn't help but ask, "Sis, did your husband know you suddenly brought such a darling back?"

Jiang Manman paused with her chopsticks: "I haven't had a chance to tell him yet."

"What if he gets upset when he finds out?" Jiang Che glanced at Xie Jian and muttered in a voice only Jiang Manman could hear, "After all, he's the son of my rival..."

Jiang Manman thought for a moment and felt it was necessary to clarify: "Every time Yan Changye went to Hong Kong, he basically slept in the same bed with Xie Jian, and they even took a bath together."

Jiang Che almost choked: "No way, he's playing like this?"

Xie Jian tilted his head, his little voice earnest: "Uncle, he often hugs me and calls me his darling, sometimes kissing my face until it's numb but he still doesn't want to let go, he's so cute."

Jiang Che was a little confused.

Jiang Tiancheng and Chen Suyan, who were standing to the side, were also shocked. Chen Suyan looked at Jiang Manman with a complicated expression: "It seems that Chairman Yan really likes children. Manman, you should really consider it."

This time, Jiang Tiancheng agreed: "Yan Changye is twenty-nine years old, and he will be thirty next year. The Yan family, which is so large, cannot be without an heir."

"It's not that I don't want it," Jiang Manman sighed softly, "it's that he refuses to take it."

Chen Suyan looked worried: "These days, even marriages with children are not considered stable, let alone those without children."

“Manman has a baby!” Xie Jian looked up from his rice bowl and blinked his big eyes. “I am Manman’s baby.”

Jiang Manman coughed lightly: "Thank you for your help, but don't talk nonsense."

“I’m not making this up,” Xie Jiannai said. “I can give up my Xie family identity and transfer my household registration to the capital. It’s just that Daddy said transferring the family tree would be more troublesome.”

It's not just the transfer of family genealogy records that's troublesome.

As the designated successor of the Xie family, Xie Jian's identity is particularly sensitive, even to the point that a single move could have far-reaching consequences. Let alone transferring his household registration to Jiang Manman, a complete stranger, even if he were Jiang Manman's biological son, it would be extremely difficult for him to transfer it from Hong Kong to the capital.

Jiang Manman couldn't bring herself to discuss such a topic with a child who was only a few years old. She looked at Xie Jian's innocent and nonsensical words, smiled, and stuffed a pea cake into his mouth to shut him up: "Alright, Xie Jian, let's stop this ridiculous topic."

Jiang Che gloated, "It seems that Xie Yunxi has spoiled his son for so many years, but he hasn't really tamed him."

Jiang Manman glared at him: "You shut up too."

After finishing the meal.

Thinking of the main purpose of her visit today, Jiang Manman asked Jiang Che, "What are your plans for the near future?"

"No plans for now, just a few class reunions and some drinking and having fun with some childhood friends from wealthy families."

“Then you can help me take care of him.” Jiang Manman pointed at Xie Jian. “Take him around on weekdays, and I’ll take care of him myself on weekends and weekday evenings.”

"Bringing someone along?" Jiang Che looked at the obedient Xie Jian and said "Oh," "This kid looks very well-behaved, he should be easy to take care of, no problem!"

"Alright, come pick them up at No. 1 Residence first thing tomorrow morning." Jiang Manman instructed earnestly, "I don't care about anything else, but you're not allowed to bring them to places that are not suitable for children."

"Sister, you're overthinking it." Jiang Che blushed, a rare occurrence for her. "I wouldn't even dare to go myself."

After sitting with Jiang Tiancheng and Chen Suyan in the living room for a while, Jiang Manman left with Xie Jian at around 10 p.m.

"Goodbye Grandpa! Goodbye Grandma! Uncle, see you tomorrow!" Xie Jian smiled and waved his little paws, looking like a soft and harmless good baby in the night.

Jiang Che's heart warmed: "Thank you, Bao'er. Your uncle will come to see you tomorrow!"

new York.

Inside the hospital, Xie Yuheng, with a cool and aloof expression, looked at Yan Changye, who was sitting on a recliner next to the hospital bed, playing on his phone.
"The whole scheme has been set up?"

"It's all good, but whether they'll actually join the game is another matter," Yan Changye replied casually. "Those few bastards are all cunning and difficult to deal with."

“I will leave here tonight and return to Hong Kong overnight.” Xie Yuheng’s tone was also quite calm. “Try to stall them until next week, and once I have everything arranged in Hong Kong, we can close the net.”

"Alright." Xie Yuheng paused for a moment: "Don't leave the bodyguard's sight."

"Don't worry, I'm not like you. You're ruthless to others and ruthless to yourself. You'd even take a bullet to catch a fish." Yan Changye chuckled. "I still value my life."

Xie Yuheng fell silent.

Yan Changye put away his phone: "Then I'll go back to the hotel first?"

"what ever."

Just as Yan Changye was about to get up, his phone rang urgently.

He lay back down, crossed his long legs, and sighed softly, "My unfilial son is video calling. How annoying."

It's 2 a.m. in the capital.

Yan Changye answered the video call, looking at Xie Jian's dark background with annoyance: "It's so late, you're still not asleep?"

Xie Jian yawned: "I just got up, and I'm on my way home now."

"You're still out fooling around so late?" Yan Changye's face darkened. "Where's your brother?"

"He just fell asleep too." Xie Jian staggered along the road from Villa No. 1 to Villa No. 2, followed by several silent bodyguards.

Having just "changed shifts" with Yan Yu, the little guy is still a bit groggy. He stubbornly sent a video to Yan Changye, his mind still fogged up after all that effort.

"Daddy, when are you coming back?"

"At least next week, maybe longer." Yan Changye looked at the confused child, a little annoyed but also a little soft-hearted. "Don't video chat with me unless it's important, I'm very busy."

"Daddy's lying, you're not busy at all." Xie Jian snorted. "You send Manman so many photos every day, and they're all selfies. Why don't you take one and send it to me?"

Yan Changye asked guiltily, "Really?"

"Yes, there are. Lots of photos of me not dressed properly, and two photos of me taking a shower, they're all on Manman's WeChat, I saw them!" Xie Jian blurted out.

Yan Changye was instantly embarrassed. The image he had maintained in front of the child for many years crumbled a little. He was slightly annoyed: Why does Jiang Manman share such things with the child?
"No, you've misread it. Go home and get some sleep. If I find you staying up late again, I'll beat you up when we get back." Yan Changye hung up the video call immediately.

The ward was eerily quiet for a moment.

Yan Changye looked at Xie Yuheng, whose expression had become even colder, as if nothing had happened: "When you get back, take some time to discipline those two unfilial sons."

Xie Yuheng didn't reply, but his eyes were deep and his tone was indifferent: "Next time you want to show affection, don't do it in front of me."

Yan Changye raised an eyebrow: "You mean I should send a selfie to my wife?"

Xie Yuheng looked away with his cold gaze, not wanting to pay him any attention.

"Alright, let's settle our personal matters later, once we're done with this busy period." Yan Changye stood up and left without looking back.

Just as dawn broke, Jiang Manman received another photo from Yan Changye.

More, more erotic.

Y: [Madam, try forwarding this to Xie Jian again.]

The tone wasn't harsh, but the threat was very strong.

Jiang Manman's face burned.

Before going to bed, Jiang Manman secretly admired Yan Changye's sexy photos, but Xie Jian glanced at her unintentionally.

I didn't expect this matter to reach Yan Changye so quickly...

Jiang Manman paused for a moment, then decided to tell the truth:
[I didn't forward it to him. Xie Jian was lying next to me when you posted the photo.]
