When He Yan heard Xiao Hua say that he could recognize the child, he was both surprised and delighted. Not only did she not resent him, but she also took the initiative to let him recognize the child. He Yan felt even more guilty and uneasy. Compared to her, he was really a bad person. He not only slandered her and threw mud at her, but he also threatened her with the child.

Even animals wouldn't do something so heinous, yet he managed to do it all. Doesn't that make him even worse than an animal?

(Xiaohua: Great, you have a very clear understanding of yourself!)

Xiaohua's inner monologue: You think I let you recognize my child because I'm kind-hearted? How ridiculous! It's because you threatened to take my child away.

"Xiaohua, I'm sorry!" He Yan apologized softly, his voice lacking confidence.

Faced with his sudden apology, Xiaohua was both surprised and frightened, wondering if this person was up to something bad again.

If Xiaohua had 108 thoughts at this moment, at least 107 of them would be written on her face.

"The sun must have risen in the west! You actually apologized to me? That's really strange!" Xiaohua couldn't help but say sarcastically.

"In short, it was my fault. I threw mud at you without even knowing the facts."

After He Yan finished speaking, Xiao Hua finally understood why he had apologized earlier; it seemed he knew exactly what she was doing.

Isn't he curious about how he transformed himself from an illiterate village girl into a highly educated intellectual?

However, he wasn't curious at all; that was his business and had nothing to do with her. As for the child, she still wanted to make a three-point agreement with him.

“I can let you acknowledge the child, but you have to do as I say.”

He Yan nodded: "Okay, as long as you're willing to let me reunite with my child, I'll agree to whatever you say."

After hearing this, Xiaohua's face showed a big question mark. "?? When did this person become so easy to talk to?"

"Since you have no objections, let's make a three-point agreement. You can reunite with your child, but you can never take your child from me. Wherever I am, your child will be there too. Your child and I will never be separated. This is the most important point."

Secondly, you can't bring your child to meet your family, especially your mom and sister. I really hate them. I still remember their arrogant and condescending attitude.

Furthermore, let's get a quick and easy divorce. From now on, you'll be the child's biological father, and I'll be the child's biological mother. The child will live with me, and you can visit him anytime you want, but there will be absolutely no relationship between us!

When He Yan heard that Xiao Hua only wanted to get a divorce as soon as possible, he felt very uncomfortable for some reason. There was a time when he felt disgusted by Xiao Hua and wanted to stay away from her, wishing he had nothing to do with her. Now it was the other way around, and Xiao Hua wanted to stay away from him and cut ties with him. People really are like that, things change every ten years.

He originally wanted to say the last point, "I can't agree to that," but then he thought that if he said that, Xiaohua might think he was deliberately dragging things out and not divorcing her, and that she might hate him even more. So he changed his approach.

"It's really difficult to get a divorce right now. You know, my dad can't get anyone to handle the divorce proceedings for us with just one phone call. I'll try to persuade him to agree to the divorce later."

Xiao Hua thought about it and realized that once Commander He made up his mind, nothing could bring him back. At least for now, Commander He did not agree to her and He Yan's divorce. If Commander He did not agree, the divorce would be very difficult to get.

Indeed, there's no need for her to keep getting entangled with He Yan and wasting her time on this marriage in name only, or on a divorce certificate.

This is an era where opportunities abound. Even pigs can fly these days. She should focus on her career, which is one of the reasons why she agreed to let He Yan acknowledge the child.

She needs to focus on her career now, so she needs someone to help her with the education and care of her child. If that person is the child's biological father, that would be the best outcome.

"Alright, I'll listen to you then. But you need to persuade Commander He to agree as soon as possible."

Xiao Hua suddenly became so easy to talk to. Looking at her beautiful face, He Yan thought that this girl was actually quite nice and kind, wasn't she?

Sometimes, a flutter of the heart happens in a fleeting moment...

Xiao Hua went upstairs and brought the child down, pointing to He Yan in front of her: "Bao'er, this is... Dad!" It was that direct, without any buffer.

Kang An looked He Yan over carefully and asked in confusion, "Mom, didn't you say this uncle wasn't my dad? How come he's my dad now?"

Xiaohua: "Um...it wasn't before, but it is now!"

Kang An looked confused: "Why, Mom?"

Xiaohua crouched down and whispered in Kang'an's ear, "Didn't Mom tell you last night? She spent money to buy you a toy dad."

Kang An thought about it thoughtfully; her mother seemed to have said something like that.

Then he loudly asked Xiaohua, "Because Mom didn't pay before, does that mean this uncle can't be my dad?"

He Yan looked at the mother and daughter with a blank expression, not knowing what they were talking about.

Xiaohua could only bite the bullet and continue making things up: "Yes, yes, Mom went to the mall last night and bought you a dad. From now on, this is your dad, and you can play with it however you want!"

Kang An actually likes He Yan quite a bit. She likes all things beautiful, and she likes He Yan because he is good-looking. Although she is young, her aesthetic sense has always been on point.

Kang An took He Yan's hand and happily looked up at Xiao Hua, saying, "Thank you, Mom, for buying me a dad toy. I really like this dad toy!"
