In other words, this is most likely a crime committed by an acquaintance.

But what is the other party’s purpose?

Is it just to extort a ransom?

Considering the difficulties faced by the group's overseas branches and the suppression from competitors, the clever Mu Yueqing immediately came up with a guess.

As the saying goes, the business world is like a battlefield. Could it be that those old rivals felt that they could not be forced to bow their heads by conventional business means, so they resorted to such despicable means to force themselves to give up this overseas bidding?

Shameless!

It's so shameless!

However, Chen Yan on the other end of the phone did not know what Mu Yueqing was thinking. He just thought that the other party loved his daughter so much and cared too much that he said such words.

Therefore, I didn't take it seriously and explained patiently: "Madam, you misunderstood. Xiao Ping'an seemed to have mistaken me for one of her relatives, so she has been following me. I wonder if you are free now? If it is convenient, can you please come and pick her up?"

Eh... not a human trafficker?

Mu Yueqing had already thought of countless ways to deal with the situation in her mind, but the moment she heard Chen Yan's explanation, she was stunned for a moment.

Could it be that I really misunderstood?

With a half-believing and half-doubting attitude, she asked about Chen Yan's current location.

After knowing exactly where the two were, he headed straight for that place without any hesitation.

Soon, Chen Yan saw a woman in exquisite clothes running towards him in a hurry.

The woman was wearing a white sweater and had her long brown hair tied up behind her head. As she ran, a few strands of hair fell down.

When he walked in front of Chen Yan and Xiao Ping'an, Chen Yan found that there was a cross pendant hanging around the other party's neck, stuck in the ravine. He took a quick look and saw that his talent was ready to come out.

"An An!"

"mom!"

Compared to Mu Yueqing's anxiety, Xiao Ping'an seemed a little lacking in confidence.

But he still stretched out his hands obediently and hugged his relatives.

Seeing this, Chen Yan smiled and brought Xiao Ping'an to Mu Yueqing.

It was not until her daughter returned to her arms that Mu Yueqing believed that what the other person said on the phone was true.

The little boy in front of him was not a business competitor as imagined, nor was he a so-called human trafficker, but just a passerby who was having fun.

Thinking of this, Mu Yueqing finally felt relieved.

Then her gentle and delicate face suddenly became stern, and even her tone became a few degrees higher.

"An An, do you know what you are doing? Why don't you stay in the lounge? Do you know that you almost scared your mother to death?"

These harsh words made Xiao Ping'an pout and her eyes turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Mom is a bad guy, Mom is a liar. She made An An sit alone in the house, unable to do anything and unable to go out to play. I hate a lying mom who clearly said she would play with An An."

These extremely aggrieved words suddenly made Mu Yueqing's heart tighten and she felt a little distressed.

She has been busy with company affairs and has indeed lacked the company of her daughter on weekdays. Even when she finally managed to spare some time to accompany her daughter, most of the day was wasted because of work.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Seeing the little cute kid's tears dripping like pearls, looking extremely aggrieved, Chen Yan couldn't help but say:

"Madam, no matter how busy you are at work, please don't neglect the growth of your child. An An is still young and doesn't understand much, but when he grows up, if he goes astray due to lack of care, it will be difficult to correct him then."

At this time, Mu Yueqing finally realized that there was such a lifesaver around her, and she quickly expressed her gratitude to Chen Yan.

"Thank you, thank you. Thanks to you for taking care of An An. The child is still young and naive. I have caused you a lot of trouble. I am really sorry and don't know how to repay you."

While speaking, Mu Yueqing was also looking at Chen Yan.

Only then did she realize that the other person didn't look very old and seemed to be a student.

But what was strange was that he was wearing a mask that covered most of his face, making it impossible to see his features clearly.

But the moment he looked into her eyes, her pair of deep eyes were as tranquil as a lake, as if hiding a bright morning star, or like a bottomless abyss, so captivating that one would sink into it if not careful.

"Forget about repaying. I don't have anything to lose. For me, it's also a very happy thing to meet An An. After all, she is so cute. But it seems that there is nothing for me to do now, so I'll leave first."

As he spoke, Chen Yan reached out his hand, wiped the tears from the chubby little face, and joked: "An An, don't cry, otherwise you will become ugly and be caught and sold by the big bad wolf!"

Unexpectedly, the little guy didn't appreciate it. Instead, he cried even louder, struggled hard, and stretched out his little arms to hug Chen Yan.

"No, Dad, don't go. Dad lied to me. He clearly said he would play with me. Dad is just like Mom, a big liar!"

When Mu Yueqing heard her daughter calling the little boy "Dad", a blush immediately appeared on her delicate and gentle face.

"An An, don't talk nonsense. That's your brother, not your father."

"That's Dad, that's Dad. Mom and Dad are both big liars. I won't believe you anymore!"

It wasn't just her who was embarrassed, Chen Yan was as well.

After all, being called like that in front of the little guy's mother, doesn't that mean that he is having an affair with her?

"I didn't lie to you. I didn't lie to you. It's just that I have something else to do right now. An An, go play with mom first. I'll come to see you when I'm done, okay?"

Chapter 88 This affinity is indeed full

But obviously, such a poor excuse could not fool little Ping'an, who had already lost faith in adults.

Xiao Ping'an was seen struggling in Mu Yueqing's arms and crying as if he was about to die. Mu Yueqing was embarrassed and at a loss as to how to respond.

Even though she was the boss of the group and had many years of experience in the business world, this was her first time taking care of a child and she had no experience at all.

Seeing this, Chen Yan had no choice but to stretch out his hand.

"Come on, let me do it!"

Hearing this, Mu Yueqing immediately gave him a grateful look, and then transferred Xiao Ping'an to Chen Yan's hands.

The next moment, the cute little baby stopped making a fuss, opened his tearful eyes, and said pitifully, "Daddy, don't go. Can you stay with me?"

Should we say that children’s sixth sense is very accurate?

Chen Yan was also a little distressed.

Although he liked this little guy very much, the problem was that he was not his father.

How shameful it is for a tall boy like him to have to take care of children at such a young age!

Thinking about how to deal with the situation, Chen Yan remained calm on the surface and just spoke softly to comfort others.

"Don't leave, don't leave. Just stay here with An An. Be obedient and don't cry."

With just a few words, the little guy stopped making a fuss, but his little arms were tightly wrapped around Chen Yan's neck, as if he was afraid that he would run away.

This scene made Mu Yueqing's eyes widen involuntarily, and then she looked at him with admiration.

When did my daughter become so easy to please?

Or is this the charm of men? Or... is it because An An lacks fatherly love?

Thinking of this, Mu Yueqing looked at Chen Yan thoughtfully for a moment, and suddenly said: "I'm so sorry, I really troubled you, um... it's getting late now, why don't I treat you to a meal to express my gratitude?"

Have a meal?

Chen Yan hesitated.

Although it was indeed time for dinner after all this trouble, he was not very hungry.

Besides, Zhou Mingrui would come to see me soon, and now I was going to eat with a strange woman...

What if I’m accused of valuing women over friendship?

"When eating..."

"Dad, take me to dinner. I want to eat with Dad!"

Before he could finish his words, the little guy started yelling, making Chen Yan's ears buzz.

But seeing the tears in Xiao Ping'an's eyes that had not yet disappeared, Chen Yan couldn't harden his heart.

After all, his biggest weakness is that he is too soft-hearted.

As if she saw his embarrassment, Mu Yueqing asked considerately, "Is there anything inconvenient?"

Chen Yan shook his head.

"Not really, it's just that I came here with a few friends. We agreed to have dinner together. It doesn't seem right to leave them behind now."

It turns out that it is because of these...

Mu Yueqing breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "That's nothing, why not ask them to come together, it's just a meal, it won't cost much."

How many of them should we take with us?

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yan decisively refused.

just forget it.

Zhou Mingrui is okay, at most he is a bit of a big mouth, but as for Jiang Qingyu and the other two, I don’t know what they think.

It is better to have less trouble than more. Since the other party insists on treating you to a meal, just eat something casually.

"Forget it, don't shout anymore, I'll just send them a message, and as for food... just eat anything, or maybe McDonald's, what do you think?"

As he spoke, Chen Yan pointed to a huge M-shaped sign in the amusement park.

After this type of chain restaurant was introduced from abroad, it quickly spread everywhere.

But it is loved by children.

It can be said that few little ones can resist the temptation of French fries and fried chicken.

Sure enough, after Chen Yan said that they wanted to eat at McDonald's, Xiao Ping'an's eyes suddenly lit up when he looked at the sign.

"Yeah, Dad is taking me to eat fried chicken and French fries! I also want to drink Kola!"

"no!"

However, Mu Yueqing flatly rejected such a proposal. She raised her eyebrows and her pretty face suddenly became stern.

"These are junk food. Eating them is bad for your health. An An, be obedient and don't eat them!"
