Qiao Wanwan originally wanted to say it over the phone, but she really wanted to see him, so she said, "Have you had dinner yet? You can't just stay cooped up in your room all the time, how about coming out for a walk?"

"Get to the point."

"There is something, but it's hard to explain over the phone."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before a deep, cold voice came through, "Where are you going for a walk?"

"I'll pick you up at the beach on my way."

The sea breeze was cold this season, and there were fewer people taking walks than in summer, so Qiao Wanwan didn't need to wear a mask and strolled leisurely with Zhan Jingting.

"What do you want from me?" the man asked.

"Next week, Eleven and Xiao Jiu will have a parent-child sports day at the kindergarten, and the two children really hope that you can participate."

Zhan Jingting refused outright, saying, "I don't like these kinds of occasions, and I would never attend."

“You are the child’s father, and you have attended before.”

“Impossible,” Zhan Jingting said. “How could I possibly go to a place like that?”

Qiao Wanwan's lips twitched. "You make it sound like some kind of den of dragons and tigers. It's a kindergarten, a cradle for nurturing talent for the motherland."

"I can't possibly attend this kind of event." Zhan Jingting's face was full of resistance.

Qiao Wanwan suddenly realized something. "I know, you've never been to kindergarten. The teaching team came to your home to teach you. You've never been to kindergarten, right?"

Zhan Jingting remained noncommittal, saying, "In short, I won't go, much less participate in any sports meet; that's just childish."

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"The purpose of a parent-child sports day is to play with your child. It can strengthen the parent-child relationship and is a great activity. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to you."

“You can go find someone else,” Zhan Jingting said distantly. “After our divorce, you will have custody of the two children. You are so young, you will eventually need to start a new relationship. I see that you and Wen Lijing have a good relationship, so why don’t you let him participate in some sports meet?”

"What did you say?" Qiao Wanwan stopped and frowned. "You want Li Jing to be the child's father?"

"This is your business, it has nothing to do with me."

Qiao Wanwan was furious. How come she had never noticed before how awful and annoying this man was!

Qiao Wanwan held her stomach and suddenly hissed!

Zhan Jingting, who was walking ahead, paused and turned to look at her. "What's wrong?"

Qiao Wanwan looked pained, "My stomach... my stomach hurts so much..."

Zhan Jingting stood still, but took out his phone and said, "I'll call 120 for you."

"I can't stand up anymore, come and help me."

Zhan Jingting frowned slightly, clearly unwilling.

Qiao Wanwan was so angry she almost cried, "I'm carrying your child! Is it too much to ask you to even help me up?!"

Zhan Jingting's heart softened suddenly. He stepped forward, extended his arm, and gestured for her to help him up.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Qiao Wanwan suddenly stepped forward and got closer to him.

Before Zhan Jingting could react, the girl in front of him suddenly hooked her arms around his neck and kissed his lips!

Zhan Jingting froze, feeling a powerful electric current surge through his body from their pressed lips!

His heart was racing uncontrollably, faster than ever before, as if it were about to burst out of his chest!

His mind went blank, and he was unable to think at all. In an instant, it was as if countless fireworks were blooming in his mind, beautiful and dazzling!

The kiss was fleeting, like a dragonfly skimming the water, and didn't deepen. After a few dozen seconds, Qiao Wanwan pulled away from her lips because standing on tiptoe was too tiring.

But her hands were still tightly wrapped around the man's neck.

Zhan Jingting struggled to his senses, his stunned expression instantly turning into anger. "Qiao Wanwan, what are you doing!"

Qiao Wanwan smiled, her eyes crinkling, "So people with amnesia lose their common sense? They don't even know what kissing is anymore?"

Zhan Jingting: "......!!!"

"Who gave you permission to kiss me? Let go!"

"I won't let go!" Qiao Wanwan pouted and said angrily, "If you dare to ask me to find a stepfather for the child again, I'll keep kissing you, kiss you to death!"

Zhan Jingting: "......"

"Qiao Wanwan, you tricked me into marrying you by being persistent and clingy, didn't you?"

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

“Mr. Zhan, go out and ask who is the one who’s been pestering me relentlessly? You were the one who begged me to marry you, crying and pleading with me.”

"Absolutely not. I would never cry and beg you to marry me."

Qiao Wanwan blinked. "Crying your eyes out is a bit of an exaggeration, but you're the one who's persistent and clingy!"

Zhan Jingting couldn't argue with her, so he could only say, "Let me go first."

"I won't let go unless you promise me you won't say those kinds of things again, otherwise I'll kiss you again!"

Zhan Jingting frowned even more, and was about to push her away when Qiao Wanwan immediately said, "Go ahead and push me. If you push me down and cause both of us to die, you'll be happy. You won't even need a divorce; you'll be widowed."

Zhan Jingting: "......"

"Qiao Wanwan, do you even have a sense of reason?"

"Mr. Zhan, you know you should be reasonable?" Qiao Wanwan said, feeling wronged. "Did I steal from Old Wang next door or wasn't good enough to you? You want a divorce, and now you're blaming me for being unreasonable?"

Zhan Jingting's heart suddenly ached. "What exactly do you want?"

"First, we won't get a divorce. Second, you must accompany the child to the parent-child sports day."

Zhan Jingting looked at her helplessly, and finally could only say, "I can participate in the sports meet, but I can't change my mind about the divorce."
