Yan Xu picked up his phone, ready to let Shen Du know he was safe, when someone knocked on the car window. He turned around and saw Jiang Che's face, with Shen Du and the others behind him.

Ye Zhao got out of the car, and before she could say anything, Jiang Che naturally pulled her into his arms. His unique, cool scent soothed Ye Zhao's chaotic emotions.

"The child is alright, don't worry."

Seeing the two standing together intimately, talking to themselves, Yan Xu stared wide-eyed in surprise, then turned to look at Chen Du with a look of confusion and bewilderment.

Shen Du didn't look at him, but he also felt that the scene was quite strange.

The group didn't linger. After learning that the child was at the East Bus Station, they hurriedly boarded the bus and rushed over. However, this time, Chen Du got into Yan Xu's car, and Ye Zhao got into Jiang Che's car.

As soon as he got in the car, Yan Xu asked impatiently, "What happened? I haven't been to City A for very long, why... why..."

He had never even considered the two of them together, and suddenly they became a couple, without him, as the older brother, hearing a single word.

Shen Du remained expressionless and slowly replied, "Based on what you've seen, I don't know anything else."

Although Yang Xu was driving, he was also listening to the conversation between the two people in the back. He was very curious about when those two would have something going on.

Yan Xu was still quite shocked, even somewhat bewildered. He asked again, "You knew absolutely nothing about it?"

Shen Du retorted, "Why should I know if they're dating?"

Yan Xu: "...I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous."

One was his ex-fiancée, and the other was his business partner and friend. It was quite presumptuous of him to ask such a question, but he was just too curious.

Meanwhile, in another car, Jiang Che held Ye Zhao's hand and pulled her into his arms, saying gently, "It's alright. It's normal for a child to be a little naughty. We'll hire two nannies to take turns looking after him, and nothing will happen again."

Ye Zhao felt a wave of fear wash over her, but now that she was nestled in Jiang Che's arms, she finally felt much more at ease. Upon hearing this, she blamed herself and said, "It's all my fault. If I had told him in advance that I was coming, he wouldn't have come looking for me."

Jiang Che said slowly, "It's alright. What child is easy to raise? We'll teach him well. Yuanbao is very well-behaved. You don't need to blame yourself. There's been a lot going on these past few days, so how can you blame yourself?"

Mu Xu was focused on driving, but when she heard Jiang Che say so much, and in such a gentle tone, she couldn't help but glance at him.

He had followed Jiang Che for so many years and knew his temperament quite well. People said he was gentle and easy to talk to, but that wasn't true. He was just too lazy to argue with people. Deep down, he was actually an indifferent person. Over the years, he had never seen anyone treat him with such meticulous care and gentle patience.

Yuanbao sat obediently in the chair, looking out the door, waiting for Ye Zhao to arrive, while several police officers around him chatted.

"You came all the way by bus? You're quite brave for such a young age."

A police officer standing nearby frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Is this child Yan's child?"

"It seems to be President Yan's nephew..."

Upon hearing this, the man pointed at Yuanbao with a surprised expression and said, "Isn't he the kid who called the police last time?"

"What alarm?"

"You called the police to report that his father abducted children, don't you remember? That happened just a few months ago!"

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances, pondered blankly for a moment, and then someone remembered the incident and looked at Yuanbao in surprise.

"I remember now, it's him! Why would he suddenly accuse his own father?"

"I heard that it was the first time she met her father, and then she called the police while she was sleeping in the hotel."

Someone exclaimed in amazement, "Children from wealthy families are truly extraordinary! They're only a few years old, yet they're so bold!"

Yuanbao then turned to look at him, and said with a proud look, "I am the bravest child on Osmanthus Road!"

This amused the police officers, who burst into laughter. At that moment, Ye Zhao got out of the car and ran over. Yuanbao turned his head and happened to see Ye Zhao appear at the door. He became radiant and happily called out "Mom!" before jumping off the chair.

Ye Zhao watched him run towards her, full of energy. She had just wanted to get angry and teach him a lesson, but now she couldn't bring herself to say a harsh word. She didn't know whether to be angry or amused, but her hands honestly took the child into her arms.

Yuanbao hugged Ye Zhao's neck tightly, buried his head in her shoulder, and complained pitifully, "Mommy's a bad girl, Mommy hasn't come to pick Yuanbao up for so many days..."

As he spoke, his voice choked with emotion. Ye Zhao, who had originally intended to reprimand him with a stern face, was now speechless and felt so soft-hearted that she almost cried along with Yuanbao.

Jiang Che stepped forward and stood aside, patting Ye Zhao's shoulder in an attempt to comfort her, but he knew that Ye Zhao needed time to calm down, so he didn't say anything.

Chen Du followed Yan Xu out of the car and walked over. Seeing the situation, he just stood far away to the side. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yuanbao was alright. However, the mother and son were hugging and talking, and they didn't notice him for a moment.

Yan Xu glanced at the mother and son and Jiang Che, then at Shen Du, and felt that the scene was very strange.

Several police officers, recalling the last time they called the police, stared at Jiang Che, wondering how old the child was before meeting his father. Unexpectedly, Yuanbao looked up, saw Chen Du not far away, and suddenly called out "Dad!"

When Shen Du saw him crying, he went over without thinking. Yuanbao stretched out his hands to him, crying, and he instinctively picked up the child and hugged him.

The expressions of the people around them changed repeatedly, their gazes shifting between Ye Zhao, Jiang Che, and Chen Du, all looking puzzled and confused.

Upon seeing this bizarre scene, Yan Xu couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Holding such a soft, cuddly little bundle in his arms, even the hardest heart would melt. But he had never raised a child before, so he couldn't say anything to comfort him. He could only gently pat Yuanbao's back to soothe him.

Seeing this, Jiang Che's eyes darkened, then he turned to the police officers and said, "My child is naughty and has caused you all trouble. Thank you all for today!"

The lead policeman smiled and said, "You're too kind, it's all part of my job, but you should keep a closer eye on your child next time..."

Ye Zhao also realized what was happening and turned to thank the police officers.

Little Yuanbao lifted his head from Chen Du's shoulder and sobbed, "Mommy's a bad girl, Mommy hasn't come to pick me up for so many days..."

Seeing that his face was covered in snot and tears, Chen Du didn't seem to mind at all. While wiping his face, she said, "Mom has her own things to do. Didn't she come to find you?"
