The two security guards were initially skeptical, as they had learned many similar cases involving attempts to abduct children. So they cautiously agreed that it was not possible.

"If you want to see your child, we need to verify your identity and obtain the guardian's consent before you can take the child away. I advise you to go through the legal process! The child should be awarded to whoever is entitled to custody. Don't lose our jobs!"

They simply don't believe it.

Xu Huaiyuan and Wang Chungui continued to plead with them in a softer tone.

"Brother, please have mercy! I haven't seen my granddaughter in so long! How about this, could you let her come out and meet us?"

Wang Chungui had a sudden inspiration and decided to call the two children out to meet them before making any further plans.

The two granddaughters haven't seen their father for so long, they'll definitely want to stay with him.

Is it a child?

I said I'd take them out for a nice meal, and they could easily be taken away.

The two security guards hesitated for a moment, mainly because they saw that the man didn't seem like a bad person, and the old lady, although loud, was quite pitiful.

Xu Huaiyuan gritted his teeth and added a ruthless move: "My ex-wife is really ruthless. Not only did she run off with five million yuan of my family's money, but she also won't let us see the children. If she finds out about this, she definitely won't let us see the children."

So he pleaded with the two security guards to let them see the child through the fence, if that would be enough.

The two security guards exchanged a glance and finally spoke up: "We can't let you take the child away, but we can pass on a message to your child: if the child doesn't want to see you, you can't keep bothering him!"

Xu Huaiyuan and Wang Chungui immediately nodded in agreement, saying they would agree to anything as long as they could see the child.

The security guard asked, "What's the child's name? Which class is he in?"

Wang Chungui and Xu Huaiyuan were both stunned for a moment, but Xu Huaiyuan reacted quickly, "The children just transferred here, and we don't know which class they are in, but my children are not very old. They are in the junior class this year. My eldest daughter is named Jiang Muhan, and my youngest daughter is named Jiang Enpei. Could you two please help us find out?"

Xu Huaiyuan could only ask a friend to help him find out which kindergarten his two children attended, but he really didn't know which class they were in.

As for the two daughters' surnames, they were changed to Jiang Tong's long ago after the children moved their household registrations out.

His face was full of bitterness as he spoke.

Wang Chungui was also annoyed, muttering to herself, "It's better that our Xu family name sounds nice. What's with the surname Jiang?"

One of the security guards went to the hospital, leaving the other to watch over the mother and child.

The security guard exclaimed in surprise upon hearing the children's names, "These two children's names sound familiar! Oh! I remember now! Aren't these the twins Hanhan and Peipei? I didn't recognize you when I called your full names. Isn't their mother that beautiful female painter? I think her registered name is Jiang Tong."

Xu Huaiyuan and Wang Chungui were stunned.

What kind of artist is this?!

Xu Huaiyuan knew that Jiang Tong could draw, but he didn't know that she had actually become an artist.

"Hey bro, what artist? Do you know about my ex-wife?"

Xu Huaiyuan immediately pressed for details.

The security guard glanced at him, his eyes suddenly turning unfriendly, and his tone becoming harsh. "You don't seem like a villain, do you? You wouldn't spread rumors, would you? This Mrs. Jiang is a very nice person, polite and courteous to everyone, unlike what you're saying, that she cheated and committed fraud. Although I don't know how she got divorced, she's genuinely a good person. Besides, the tuition for two children is over two hundred thousand a year. How could she be a bad person to be able to afford to send her children to such good schools?"

The kindergarten is only so big, and it follows an elite education model. Although the tuition is high, the teaching is really good. Every child can grow rapidly, especially the smart ones, who can understand things almost instantly.

Even the security guard couldn't help but exclaim, "These two kids are child prodigies! They're so pretty and cute, they're quite famous in our kindergarten. They learn everything so quickly, and their grades are always in the top three. Their notebooks are covered with little red flowers."

He kept marveling at how smart the two children were, and that their kindergarten was no ordinary place. Although it focused on learning through play, it was still quite challenging. The fact that the two children stood out from the crowd meant they were definitely not ordinary children.

When Xu Huaiyuan suddenly heard news about his two daughters, he felt somewhat estranged. Not only Jiang Tong, but the lives of his two daughters had also undergone earth-shattering changes.

And she herself supports her children's schooling?

Oh, right.

Before the divorce, he and Jiang Tong seemed to have argued several times about their child's education, because she wanted to spend a lot of money on the child, saying that education should not be skimped on.

Xu Huaiyuan felt it was unnecessary. He had excellent grades in high school, and his family was poor, so he never went to kindergarten. Yet he still managed to study.

What did Jiang Tong say back then?

She seemed to be arguing that education is different in each era and cannot be compared with their previous education. Moreover, her family is not poor, so why are they reluctant to spend money on education?

Xu Huaiyuan was indeed somewhat persuaded at the time, but he was still reluctant to spend the money, feeling it was unnecessary, so he made up some other excuse.

I just didn't expect it.

After the divorce, she actually has this ruthless spending power, even more so than before the divorce. Before, she said the kindergarten cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a year, but now she's asking 120,000 yuan for just one child?

This does not include other miscellaneous expenses.

Xu Huaiyuan was genuinely frightened by her.

Wang Chungui also started to make a fuss, muttering a curse at Jiang Tong for being a spendthrift, "I told you she's a troublemaker, is this kindergarten made of gold?! It's so expensive! Forget about the five million, she'll spend it all in less than two years!"

She felt a pang of heartache just thinking about that money.
