Just as Su Yan was about to get home, she suddenly received a call from Jason.

Once the call connected, Jason's words remained as concise and clear as ever.

"Qiong, we've found news about Chenchen."

Su Yan jumped up from her car seat, gripped the phone tightly, and shouted, "Where are you?"

Her excited reaction made the driver glance back a couple of times.

Jason's voice remained indifferent and unmoved, completely unaffected by Su Yan's words.

"Just as you predicted, Qiong, I found a hospital in M ​​City that has children around Chenchen's age registered."

Su Yan's hand holding the phone began to tremble uncontrollably.

It's been four years.

For four years, she never stopped wanting to find Chenchen.

She was finally close to finding him; she was about to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

"Send me the hospital's address, and I'll go there today to ask."

She gave a brief explanation and then hung up the phone.

The car stopped at the entrance of Su Yan's residential complex at that very moment.

The driver turned to look at her. "Ms. Su, we've arrived."

Su Yan looked up and met his somewhat forlorn gaze. After hesitating for a moment, she took out a banknote from her bag and handed it to him.

"I'm treating this trip as if I've paid you to come."

The driver looked at the money, hesitated for a moment, and then silently put it away.

After getting out of the car, Su Yan made a phone call to Duan Sisi.

After Duan Sisi answered the call, the background noise on her end was a bit loud.

"What's wrong, darling?"

Her voice was muffled by the background noise.

Su Yan frowned and asked, "Where are you? It's so noisy."

She didn't even bother with Duan Sisi's reply, excitedly wanting to share the news with her.

"Sisi, I just got news about Chenchen. I'm going to the hospital Jason mentioned this afternoon. Maybe we can find out the name of Chenchen's current guardian."

Duan Sisi immediately became excited upon hearing this.

"Really? You really found it?"

She moved to a slightly quieter place. "Honey, that's wonderful. It was worth all the trouble you went through looking for Chenchen."

Su Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, "I hope this time it's for real, and that I won't be disappointed again."

Duan Sisi comforted her, "We'll definitely find it this time, don't worry!"

Su Yan nodded and then brought up the purpose of her call.

"By the way, Sisi, are you free this afternoon? Xiaoyu is at kindergarten and no one can pick her up. I was wondering if you could help me pick her up."

Duan Sisi glanced awkwardly at the people outside who were happily drinking.

“Honey, I’m afraid that won’t work. Today is Qiao Chen’s mother’s birthday, so I went back to his hometown with him and can’t get back in time.”

Upon hearing this, Su Yan immediately said, "Then I won't trouble you. I'll find someone else."

Duan Sisi asked anxiously, "Who else can you ask besides me? Jason isn't even in the country."

Su Yan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then we can only ask Yi An."

Yi An was flattered when she received Su Yan's call.

He cleared his throat before solemnly answering the phone.

"Hey? Why did you suddenly decide to call me?"

Su Yan, hearing his greasy tone, was unwilling to waste any more time chatting with him and went straight to the point.

"I have to go out today and won't be able to pick up Xiaoyu. Could you pick her up for me? I'll be back tonight. You can just treat her to a meal."

Yi'an initially wanted to agree immediately upon hearing this, but then she changed her mind and deliberately dragged out the last syllable.

"Oh, I see. So, how will you reward me for helping you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yan immediately reminded her, "Aren't we contractual allies?"

Yi An replied cheekily, "But there's no clause in the contract about taking the child!"

Hearing his self-righteous words, Su Yan knew she was in the wrong and softened her tone.

"Okay, consider this a favor I owe you. I'll pay you back later!"

Yi'an was satisfied and readily agreed.

"Okay, you can go without worry. I'll take care of Xiaoyu!"

After hanging up the phone, Yi An felt a sense of satisfaction. Favors are easy to owe, but hard to repay.

With this favor, he could manipulate Su Yan at will. Even if the contract was broken, he would still have a legitimate reason to pester her.

Zhao Bo came to the office to deliver documents. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhao Bo smiling like a flower.

What good news could make you laugh like that?

Yi An happily put down her phone. "Su Yan has to go out for a bit and asked me to pick up Xiao Yu."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Bo immediately perked up.

"I'll go!"

Yi An frowned. "What are you going to do?"

Zhao Bo answered readily and naturally, "To pick up the kids!"

Fearing Yi'an might disagree, he quickly added, "Look, you have a very important meeting this afternoon that can't be postponed or you can't leave. You don't have time!"

Yi An immediately retorted, "I've calculated the time. The meeting will end just in time for Xiao Yu to get out of school. There'll be enough time."

Zhao Bo slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Too late! Listen to me! After your meeting, shouldn't you go back to your office to prepare and change your clothes before you go? If you go to pick up the kids at this time, won't there be traffic? Huh? How can you possibly be in time!"

He raised an eyebrow at Yi An. "So, I'll go instead. I'll make sure you get the child back safely and smoothly."

Yi An silently sized him up for a while, then tentatively said, "Why do I feel like you're a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—you have ulterior motives?"
