Upon hearing An Yunya's words, a distinct crack appeared on Jiang De'an's gentle expression.

He tightened his grip on the woman's arm, a sinister smile playing on his lips: "What? You're still thinking about Jiang Tingzhou? Too bad he's dead now."

When the topic of what happened back then came up, An Yunya almost broke down. "Back then, you only said that you wanted to take back what belonged to you and teach him a lesson. You didn't say that you wanted to kill him... Ugh!"

Before An Yunya could finish speaking, Jiang De'an covered her mouth.

The man maintained his harmless expression. "Xiaoya, what are you saying? Tingzhou's disappearance must have been an accident. Do you know anything about it?"

An Yunya did not speak immediately.

Jiang De'an smiled slightly: "Haven't you visited your mother in a long time? How about I go with you sometime?"

The man was reminding An Yunya.

If she doesn't obey, Xiao Yinlan will suffer in prison.

After her miscarriage, she filed for divorce. When she visited Xiao Yinlan in prison, she found that Xiao Yinlan seemed to have suffered something. She looked fine on the surface, but she walked with a limp and couldn't even straighten her back.

All the resistance on An Yunya's face gave way at this moment.

She tried to keep a smile on her face and said in a gentle tone, "No need, I'm sorry, I will take good care of the two children, don't worry."

She already has no father and doesn't want to lose her mother too.

Jiang De'an smiled slightly and patted the woman's head: "Isn't this good? Having your own child in this world is a weakness. It's best if you don't have one."

An Yunya nodded repeatedly.

Jiang De'an used his fingers as a comb to roughly comb the woman's hair. "Go wash your face, put on some powder, and go say hello to the two children."

"good."

An Yunya stood up, supporting herself against the wall.

Meanwhile, Xiaoxiao's dance class was almost over.

Xu Wan went upstairs, took a picture of Xiao Xiao dancing with her phone, and sent it to Jiang Tingzhou.

The message followed by the question: "[Are you really not going to see Xiaoxiao before you leave?]"

During their meal, Jiang Tingzhou told Xu Wan about his plans: he would be leaving China this Saturday to go abroad for surgery.

After the surgery, I will undergo rehabilitation training. Regardless of how well I recover, I will definitely come back before June 1st to attend Xiaoxiao's Children's Day party.

Xu Wan's thought was that since they would definitely meet on June 1st, why not meet beforehand?

Xiaoxiao had been looking forward to seeing her father for more than three years, and her father didn't want his daughter to wait any longer, even if it was only two months.

Jiang Tingzhou replied: 【Wait for me to come back.】

Xu Wan looked at the message on her phone, edited it several times, and finally gave up trying to persuade her.

Soon, Xiaoxiao, dressed in a pink practice uniform, skipped and hopped out of the classroom and jumped into Xu Wan's arms. "Mommy, the teacher praised me today! She even gave me two little flowers as a reward!"

To encourage children to attend classes, the dance class gives them little red flowers.

Collect a certain number of flowers to exchange for gifts.

Xu Wan picked up her daughter and gave her a big kiss. "You're amazing!"

Xiao Xiao hugged Xu Wan's neck and asked, "Mommy, if I tell Daddy that I was praised by the teacher, will he be happy?"

"Of course!" Xu Wan said firmly.

The child's eyes sparkled as he cautiously asked, "Mommy... um... can I call Daddy now?"

"Now?"

"I won't call tonight, and I'll go to bed nicely at nine o'clock tonight." Xiaoxiao hugged Xu Wan's neck and acted coquettishly. "I promise I'll keep my word, please let me call..."

Xu Wan couldn't refuse the child, so she had no choice but to agree.

On the way back, Xiaoxiao kept talking to Jiang Tingzhou on her phone using her smartwatch.

As Xu Wan sat listening, her cell phone rang in her bag.

The name Ke Shanshan was displayed above.

After Xu Wan answered the phone, Ke Shanshan said apologetically, "Attorney Xu, I'm sorry for calling you so late. Attorney Yuan asked me to ask when you'd be free so we could all have lunch together. I was so busy this afternoon that I completely forgot about it and only just remembered."

"It's nothing." Xu Wan took out her schedule from her bag, checked the time, and said, "I'm only free on Friday and the weekend this week. I don't have any plans for the evenings next week. Please pass this on to Attorney Yuan."

Less than half an hour after the phone call ended, Ke Shanshan sent a message.

We agreed to have a farewell dinner at a restaurant at 7 p.m. on Friday.
