After returning home with the child, her ex-husband knelt down and gently coaxed her.

Yuhe Duke's Mansion.

Lu Xiyan was on the phone and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Thank you, Auntie. Ningning hasn't seen you in a long time either. Let's have a meal together before you go back?"

"No, although I miss Xiaozhi very much, I really don't have time. I have to accompany your uncle to a charity gala tonight." Jiang Xiaoshan laughed on the phone, "I've avenged Xiaozhi for her. If the Cheng family dares to bully our Xiaozhi again, I'll tear their roof off!"

Lu Xiyan chuckled softly. Even without seeing it in person, he could imagine how Jiang Xiaoshan had caused such a scene at the Cheng family mansion.

When he called Jiang Xiaoshan to tell her that Anning had been bullied, Jiang Xiaoshan was in Dianhai. She was so angry that she cursed him out, and in her anger, she also cursed him out.

After the other party finished cursing, he smiled and said, "Auntie, the private jet is ready for you. I can't show up myself, so I'll trouble you to get this debt back for Ningning."

Sure enough, Jiang Xiaoshan flew from Dianhai to Jinghai without saying a word, and went straight to the Cheng family mansion after getting off the plane!

Lu Xiyan stood in the back garden, watching the two figures, one big and one small, watering the flowerbed a few meters away, and smiled slightly.

She said it wasn't appropriate for her to take action as a junior, so he suggested finding someone of Han Yun's generation.

Since it's inconvenient for him to show his face, there must be someone to back her up.

"But west Yan, as your aunt, I still have to criticize you."

Jiang Xiaoshan's smile faded, and she became somewhat serious. "Although you haven't had a wedding yet, you are already Xiaozhi's husband in terms of status. If she is bullied outside, no matter how you look at it, it's because you, as her husband, haven't done a good job."

"Yes, Aunt is right." Lu Xiyan sincerely accepted Jiang Xiaoshan's criticism. "This was my fault, and I promise that it will never happen again."

"It's no use making promises to me. You have to show it to Xiaozhi." Jiang Xiaoshan sighed. "Xiaozhi's parents are gone. Her biggest source of confidence now is you. You must treat her well, otherwise, I, as her aunt, will be the first to punish you."

Lu Xiyan looked at the bright smile in the sunlight and said, "Don't worry, Aunt. If I ever make her suffer again, you can skin me alive."

He had just hung up the phone and put it away when a small figure ran towards him.

"dad!"

Anxian skipped and hopped over to him, took his hand, and said, "Daddy, let's go boating!"

In the sunlight, the little one smiled, his eyes crinkling, his fine, soft hair shimmering with shine.

An Ning walked over in a light-colored long dress, her smile gentle. "Xuanxuan saw a lake over in the garden and insisted on going boating."

Since moving to the Yuhe Mansion, with its lawn and sports field in front and garden and lake behind, Xiao Anxian seems to have entered a new world. He is full of curiosity about this place and has inexhaustible energy every day, with too many things to do.

Fortunately, Lu Xiyan hired several nannies to take turns caring for An Xian, and Uncle Quan would also play with him when he had time, so An Ning was able to relax.

Lu Xiyan had one arm around An Ning's waist and the other hand patting Xiao Anxian's head. Just as he was about to agree, Li Quan came over.

"Young Master, Young Madam."

Xiao Anxian rushed over immediately, "Grandpa Quan!"

He really likes this grandpa, and he likes everyone here.

He felt that everyone at his father's place was very, very kind to him and willing to play with him.

"Hey, young master Sun," Li Quan replied with a smile, his face full of affection.

"Uncle Quan, is something the matter?" Lu Xiyan asked.

"It's Young Master Liang. He has something to discuss with you."

Upon hearing Li Quan's words, Lu Xiyan understood that Liang Xu must have brought some news with him.

He pulled Anning close and kissed her on the cheek. "I'm going to see Liang Xu."

An Ning smiled gently, "Go ahead."

"Daddy!" Little Anxian looked up, smiling and showing a row of little teeth. "I want a kiss too!"

Lu Xiyan squatted down and kissed his fair little face again. "Let Grandpa Quan take you and Mommy boating. Daddy will take you to play when he's done with his work."

......

"Young Master Lu, you stay home every day taking care of your wife and children, has your grandfather really stopped caring about you?"

In the living room, Liang Xu jokingly asked, "Do you have enough money to support your wife and kids?"

Lu Xiyan smiled, "If it's not enough, I'll ask you for help."

"Who would lend it to you?" Liang Xu joked with a laugh.

Although he was also surprised by Lu Xiyan's behavior, that he actually gave up on Ou Teng so easily and cut off all financial ties with the Lu family without wanting a single penny, Liang Xu was happy for him after seeing his condition these past few days.

Recently, Lu Xiyan has finally stopped being cold and aloof. He's started to smile and joke around, as if he's returned to how he was four years ago before he separated from An Ning.

Although Lu Xiyan had always appeared to be a superior figure to everyone over the past four years, with a stern and regal air, he was like a sharp blade covered in frost.

But only Liang Xu knew that he had already been shattered, shattered from the very core of his being.

No one can fix him except the woman in his heart.

Now, the broken Lu Xiyan seems to have been repaired and has regained its human touch.

Lu Xiyan reached out and poured him a cup of tea, his voice tinged with amusement, "Stop joking around, is there any news?"

"There really is." Liang Xu's teasing smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression. "The news is quite significant, rather shocking."

"As you said, let's start by checking the hospitals in Jinghai. Half of the babies born on the same day are boys, and only a few of the girls have Rh-negative blood." Liang Xu took out his phone, turned on the screen, and placed it on the desktop, zooming in on the image.

"You would never guess that in the hospital where Han Yun gave birth to Cheng Wanwan, there was another baby girl who was born around the same time as Cheng Wanwan, and they even had the same blood type."

Lu Xiyan followed Liang Xu's finger and looked at the enlarged document. There was a very familiar name on it.

"Cao Han?" Lu Xiyan frowned slightly, looking at the information next to Cao Han's name, which indicated RH-negative blood. "The nanny from the Cheng family? She has the same blood type as Han Yun?"

"That's right," Liang Xu said. "I even had someone check. This nanny did stay at the Cheng family's house when she was pregnant, but according to the timeline, she should have given birth two months later than Han Yun. However, she accidentally fell and went into premature labor, so she gave birth on the same day as Han Yun."

"I started investigating her, and guess what happened?" Liang Xu opened another screen on his phone and tapped upwards with his slender finger. "She was discharged from the hospital on the third day after giving birth. She first went back to Yuanxi City, and ten days later she took the train to Dianhai."

Cao Han?

Cao Han, the nanny of the Cheng family, gave birth on the same day and went to Dianhai.

Lu Xiyan's eyes narrowed slightly; the information and timing matched perfectly!

"I've also done the comparison," Liang Xu continued. "Born on the 24th, RH negative blood, and taking the child to Dianhai, only Cao Han meets all three of these conditions."

"Furthermore, I also asked people in Yuanxi City to inquire. Yuanxi City is Cao Han's hometown, but her daughter is not in Yuanxi City. Even her relatives and neighbors in her hometown do not know that she has a daughter."

"So," Liang Xu looked up at Lu Xiyan's slightly somber face, "An Ning is very likely Cao Han's daughter?"

The teacup rubbed between my fingertips, turning it round and round.

Liang Xu's deduction made Lu Xiyan's heart sink.

He lowered his eyes in thought, and after a long while spoke, "That's not right."
