Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

10 pm.

When Su Yu returned home, the living room lights were on, and Su's mother was still tinkering in the kitchen.

Curious, Su Yu took off his coat and hung it on the rack, then walked into the kitchen. "Mom, what are you busy with?"

Su's mother was in a good mood. "I'm going to make some snacks for Little Strawberry. I'm planning to make some milk powder cookies and melt-in-your-mouth snacks so Little Strawberry can have them as a treat when she wakes up tomorrow."

Even the usually composed Su Yu nearly lost his composure. "Who did you say?"

Su's mother stopped what she was doing, looked up at her son with amusement, "You don't know either? It's Yao Yao's twins. She brought them to see me this afternoon. They're so cute! What do kids these days eat to grow up like this? How come they're getting prettier and prettier? Go to sleep now, I'll be done soon."

Su Yu scratched the back of his neck a little awkwardly, preparing to go upstairs to find his sister. "Mom, I'm going to sleep now. You should also go to sleep early after you're done, don't stay up too late."

Feeling a little guilty, the brother and sister kept it a secret from their mother, watching her enthusiastically bustling around in the kitchen.

Su Yu figured Su Xue probably wasn't asleep, so he sent her a message from the doorway: "Open the door."

Sure enough, the door opened in less than a minute. "Brother."

Su Yu glanced downstairs, then sneaked into the room like a thief. "Why didn't you tell me you brought Little Strawberry home? Did Mom find out?"

Su Xue's tone was slightly smug, "Didn't I notice? Your niece is quite something, she's especially good at making Mom happy. Besides, Little Strawberry doesn't look like me, how could Mom possibly notice anything?"

Su Yu grasped a key point: "So you know who the child's father is?"

Su Xue panicked and almost let slip, "How was I supposed to know? Little Strawberry doesn't look like me. She must look like her dad. Who else could she look like?"

Well, that's perfect logic, and Su Yu couldn't refute it. It couldn't possibly be like an alien.

Su Yu suddenly threatened, "You better not be lying to me."

To hide her guilt, Su Xue urged her brother, "Oh dear, you should go back to your room, take a shower, and go to sleep. I'm so sleepy; I have to get up early for work tomorrow."

Su Yu, who had been pushed to the door, turned around and said, "I'll find you a professional childcare worker tomorrow. The maids at home aren't that professional."

"Okay, okay, thank you, bro."

After closing the door, Su Xue leaned against it and patted her chest, relieved.

If her brother found out that Little Strawberry's biological father was Lu Jinnan, he would beat her to death. Her mother, on the other hand, would be overjoyed. I don't know how her mother was bewitched by Lu Jinnan. Isn't it just because he has a face that appeals to men, women, young and old?

the next day.

Tang Junyao went to work while Xiaoyouzi was still asleep. The little one had been very fussy last night, constantly wanting Xiaocaomei to come back. No matter how she tried to soothe her, she couldn't. She fussed until midnight, and perhaps because she cried so much that she was exhausted, she was now sleeping soundly.

The two little ones have never been separated since birth. They eat and live together, and use the same brand of formula and bottles. Apart from the different diapers and clothes, everything else seems to be the same.

Adults who spend every day together develop feelings for each other, so it's normal to feel reluctant to part with children.

As she walked downstairs, her phone received a text message from Lan Yunxi, every word brimming with excitement: "Sis, are you at work yet? Last night, Dad promised me I don't have to wait until summer vacation to come to the capital. I can come during the Qingming Festival! There's still more than a month left! I'm so happy and excited! Guoguo also said she'd come back with us."

Tang Junyao replied to the message with a smile, walking with her head down as she replied, "Okay, I'll be waiting for you. When you come, I'll show you all over the capital. And remember to study hard from now on."

"Hmm..." Tang Junyao bumped into something and looked up, her eyes meeting a solid chest.

Looking up, her eyes were met with his cold, handsome features, which she hadn't seen in a long time. She quickly came to her senses within seconds. "Sorry, I wasn't paying attention," she said, referring to bumping into him.

The man's eyes were glued to her. She had gained a little weight, and her skin had become even more translucent and fair. Two years had passed since they last met, and her slender waist looked even more delicate and exquisite under her simple blue shirt. Her small face was still as refined as ever.

My first reaction was to hug her...

Tang Junyao had no idea what he was thinking. Seeing that he didn't react, she stopped paying attention to him and started walking forward to get her car.

A deep voice came from behind, "Did I look for you?"

Tang Junyao stopped and turned around. "What?"

Ji Hancheng pursed his lips. "How are you...?"

Tang Junyao flicked the car keys in her hand. "It's fine, no need for Young Master Ji to worry. Goodbye."

She didn't hate Ji Hancheng. For more than a month, he just didn't like her. Since they were forced into marriage, it was normal for him not to like her. The only thing she couldn't get over was that Lu Man had drugged her. He knew it, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he gave the information to Lu Man and treated her like a fool.

As for the rest, whether he has a child with Lu Man or there are rumors, that's his freedom and has nothing to do with her.

Sitting in the car, Tang Junyao was still a little shaken. She hadn't expected Ji Hancheng to be in this neighborhood. Logically speaking, her uncle had hidden her information very well and wouldn't have discovered that Xiaoyouzi's birth date had been altered. Plus, since she was born at the Lan family hospital, it was even less likely that it would have been leaked.

Still feeling uneasy, she called Aunt Zhang just to be on the safe side, reminding her to be careful when taking Xiaoyouzi downstairs to play and not to let anything slip. Only after giving her all the instructions did she drive away.

As luck would have it, Coincidence's mother encountered Coincidence itself.

"Oh my little darling, slow down! Are you hurt? Let me see." Aunt Zhang was worried that Xiao Youzi was too bored, so she took her downstairs for a walk. She had just come down when she fell because she was running too excitedly.

At the same time, Aunt Wu, who had just come downstairs, saw the little one fall and ran over to check on her. She checked every part of Xiaoyouzi's body and only breathed a sigh of relief when she found that she wasn't hurt. "Did Xiaoyouzi hurt herself?"

The little one didn't cry at all, and even smiled at the two maids, saying, "It doesn't hurt."

"Our little pomelo is so brave. She can't run so fast now. If she falls, her mother will be heartbroken when she gets home."

Little Yuzu nodded obediently, then turned around and went to play.

As a result, the little guy ran too fast and bumped into the man who was coming out. The man looked gloomy. What's wrong with him today? He keeps getting bumped into.

Perhaps he really hurt himself, because Xiaoyouzi's eyes were brimming with tears, but his mother told him that a man shouldn't cry easily, so he held them back.

It looked really cute. He glanced down at the little bundle and his expression softened a bit.

When Aunt Wu and Aunt Zhang realized they had bumped into someone and the man looked difficult to deal with, fearing he might scold Xiao Youzi, they quickly apologized before he could get angry, "Sir, we're so sorry, we're so sorry. The child didn't see anything. We hope you'll be magnanimous and not take it to heart."

His face darkened further. Did he look that petty, like someone who would argue with a little kid?

This silence left the servants even more bewildered, who assumed the man was about to make a scene.

Ignoring the servant's thoughts, he was drawn to the little one with tears in his eyes, desperately trying to hold them back. On a whim, he slowly squatted down and said, "Want to cry? If you want to cry, just cry. Why hold it in?"

To his surprise, Xiaoyouzi didn't cry. She just held it in and glared at him, which made him find it a little funny. "Little one, you bumped into me, and you still think you're right? Aren't you going to apologize?"

Mrs. Wu quickly said, "Sir, I'm so sorry, he's still too young to say many words..."

The man, who automatically ignored the servants' words, kept his gaze fixed on the child, feeling that the child's features resembled someone else.

Xu Mingkai saw this incredible scene as soon as he entered the community: a man was half-squatting on the ground, chatting with a child.

I promptly took out my phone, snapped a picture of the scene, and sent it to A-Yuan, adding the comment, "Isn't it terrifying?"

Ah Yuan: "Bored, I'm busy."

Xu Mingkai believed that sharing happiness is worse than keeping it to himself, so he didn't care how A Yuan responded and just shared it.

As he got closer, he realized something was wrong. Weren't these two servants from the Tang family mansion? Xu Mingkai, who had an excellent memory, remembered seeing them when he went to pick up the young mistress. How could they be here?

Who is this little guy? "Young Master Ji."

Upon hearing the sound, the man stood up, straightened his clothes, and casually ruffled the little one's hair.

Little Yuzu disliked strangers touching his hair. He puffed out his cheeks like a pufferfish and angrily slapped away the man's large, thick hand with a loud thud.

She looked wronged, and whispered, "Tell Daddy Yu."

Wu Sao and the others were all startled. Ji Hancheng also didn't expect that this little guy, despite his young age, had such a big temper. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips.

In just a second, realizing something was wrong, and wanting to inquire again, the two servants quickly apologized and left with the child.

Yu's father? His eyes narrowed slightly, a complex emotion settling in them.

Xu Mingkai sensed that Young Master Ji was acting strangely, but he still spoke up what he knew, "Young Master Ji, do you know that little boy from earlier?"

The man immediately adopted his usual cold demeanor, "Where would I know him?"

Xu Mingkai: Weren't you having a lot of fun just now? I don't know you, what are you laughing at?

"The two who just left were servants from the Tang family mansion, the same two you asked me to investigate before."

Ji Hancheng glared at him. "Why didn't you include photos of these two people in the information you checked before? Your efficiency is getting worse and worse."

Xu Mingkai was dragged into this for no reason; the only question is what kind of photos the two servants need to provide.
