Xu's parents looked at each other in bewilderment.

Xu Chengyang, Xu's father, didn't seem to care about these things. He looked at Zheng Yuzhu and said, "Your mother has always been good at raising children. When she said that Wantang was not good, she must have considered it carefully."

In other words, the problem with the child's education does not lie with him.

Zheng Yuzhu said directly, "I told you, she has been targeting Chuxue all along. Chuxue is a child I raised myself. She looks like me, and her talents and abilities are just like mine. I know what kind of person she is better than any of you."

"..."

Xu Shengze was stunned.

This whole family couldn't even come up with a single reason why they should truly hate Xu Wantang.

Now it's all because of Xu Chuxue.

This was the first time Xu Shengze had questioned what he had done.

……

Xu Wantang returned to the Cen family home and informed the servants.

She didn't have much to pack, just a few pieces of clothing.

She went to the hospital the next morning.

Just as I was about to go upstairs, Cen Shichuan called.

"How's your mom? Should I go?"

"No need, it's not convenient for you either."

Xu Wantang said this without any discrimination, but the person on the other end of the phone clearly hesitated for a moment.

"Third Young Master, I'm going to find my mother now. You go ahead with your work."

I hung up the phone in a hurry.

Xu Wantang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When they arrived at the ward, Zheng Yuzhu had already packed all her things. Xu's father and son, Xu Shengze, sat on the sofa and chatted about work.

Upon seeing Xu Wantang, Xu Shengze immediately stood up.

"Wantang is here. Mom's luggage is all here. The bags on the suitcase are full of Mom's skincare products. There are quite a few bottles and jars, so please be careful when you take them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Yuzhu pointed to the ground.

"You must carry those crocodile skin slippers; they can't be crushed or bent, and you have to carry the high heels next to them too."

After giving his instructions, Xu Chengyang put his hands behind his back, stood up, and said, "Let's go."

Xu Wantang then realized that the reason she was asked to come over so early in the morning was to have her move things.

She raised her hand: "I only have two hands. And if two grown men can't even lift it, how could I possibly? You're telling me to go home, are you perhaps short of a housekeeper?"

Perhaps she's been playing the role of a "green tea b*tch" in front of Cen Yuan for too long.

She can switch between them in a minute now.

Xu Shengze and Xu Chengyang stood there, stunned, unable to refute.

When Zheng Yuzhu was about to lash out, Xu Shengze immediately raised his hand to stop her.

"Wantang is right, Dad and I are here to get our luggage."

"Brother is the best! But why didn't you have the driver come up to help? Were you just waiting for me to get it?"

"No," Xu Shengze denied guiltily.

"Let's go then."

Xu Wantang didn't ask anything more, pretending to be a dutiful daughter and helping Zheng Yuzhu up.

After entering the elevator.

Although they were family, the atmosphere was strange, with a sense of fractured harmony.

Midway through, the elevator briefly opened.

In just a few seconds, Xu Wantang actually saw Lin Zhuozhong.

He grabbed a woman's hand and hurriedly walked towards the emergency stairwell.

Xu Wantang subconsciously raised her hand to block the elevator door that was about to close.

"I... I have a bit of an upset stomach, I need to use the restroom first."

After saying that, she rushed out of the elevator.

She ran in the direction where Lin Zhuozhong had disappeared, but when she pushed open the door to the emergency staircase, she found no one there.

Just then, Xu Wantang heard the sound of a door closing on the roof.

Could it be on the rooftop?

She didn't care about anything else and quickly ran upstairs.

Who knew that the rooftop door had a key, and could be locked from both the inside and outside?

She dared not push the door too hard, for fear of disturbing someone.

Fortunately, there was a small window nearby. She opened it slightly and could just see Lin Zhuozhong's figure.

But the woman's figure was completely invisible; only her reflection on the ground could be seen.

Judging from Lin Zhuozhong's demeanor and actions, he and this woman were very familiar with each other, and even somewhat intimate.

Unsure of what the woman had said, Lin Zhuozhong hurriedly tried to explain.

"I'm really not hiding anything from you, I've just been busy with work lately."

"I was invited here today to have surgery."

"Don't be angry. I'll explain some things to you slowly later."

"By the way, Third Young Master has cancelled the IVF plan he previously devised for Xu Wantang."

The woman opposite him said something that made Lin Zhuozhong's expression turn somewhat unpleasant.

"I understand, I'll be going now."

After saying that, Lin Zhuozhong turned around and walked towards where Xu Wantang was.

Xu Wantang quickly went downstairs and hid.

After Lin Zhuozhong went downstairs, she went back up to the rooftop to see who the woman was, only to find that the rooftop led to another building.

That woman left long ago.

Why did Lin Zhuozhong bring up in vitro fertilization with others?

For some reason, Xu Wantang felt more and more that something was wrong with this matter.

Just then, Xu Shengze called.

"Wantang, where are you? Why haven't you arrived yet?"

"They're down."

Xu Wantang calmed herself down and went downstairs.

She had previously seen Lin Zhuozhong and Xu Chuxue discussing how to harm her, and Xu Chuxue still had leverage over Lin Zhuozhong.

Could Xu Shengze also know?

Upon arriving at the parking lot, Xu Wantang got into Xu Shengze's car.

Throughout the journey, Xu Shengze kept telling Xu Wantang how to be filial to her parents.

How magnanimous it is that her parents could forgive her and let her return to the Xu family.

Xu Wantang ended the conversation with just one sentence.

"Did you tell Third Young Master that I went back to the Xu family because I agreed to divorce him?"

Xu Shengze fell silent, like a chicken being choked.

He sized up Xu Wantang and lectured, "There's no need to trouble Third Young Master with such matters."

"Hmm." Xu Wantang nodded, then changed the subject, "When I came out of the restroom just now, I think I saw the doctor who said he would help me with IVF."

"What IVF doctor?" Xu Shengze asked, puzzled.

"You and Third Young Master are such good friends, hasn't he ever mentioned my IVF to you?" Xu Wantang asked back.

"He mentioned it. He said the old man also wanted to hold his great-grandchild soon, so he wanted you to go for IVF. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. You two are a couple, and you'll have a child sooner or later. But he doesn't want to let Chuxue down, and IVF is the best way. Having a child will also help you gain a foothold in the Cen family. But now that you're getting a divorce, it's better not to have a child."

Xu Shengze did not forget to remind Xu Wantang not to have any improper thoughts.

Xu Wantang never wanted to have a child with Cen Shichuan, but she did confirm one thing.

Xu Shengze did not know Lin Zhuozhong.

It seems that Xu Chuxue and Cen Shichuan have been hiding many things from Xu Shengze.

Why exactly?

"Wantang? Are you listening to me?" Xu Shengze repeated.

"Yes, I heard you, I understand, I won't get pregnant," Xu Wantang assured her.

"That's good."

Done.

Xu Wantang's phone vibrated; it was a text message from Cen Shichuan.

I'll go see your mother tonight.

"No need, she's already been discharged," Xu Wantang replied.

"I know, I mean I'll go to the Xu family to keep you company."
