Bai Wan'er found the meal extremely awkward.

The sight of Chu Yunxing staring at her made her extremely uncomfortable.

After a moment, she looked at Chu Yunxing hesitantly, and said helplessly, "Is it because the food here doesn't suit my taste?"

Chu Yunxing lowered his eyes, forcibly suppressing the impulse in his heart, and replied casually, "It's quite nice here. I heard you've been living abroad for a long time. Why do you suddenly want to come back to China?"

After what happened last time, Bai Wan'er had already accepted that they were friends, so she didn't hold back at all.

"Because of work, and because I was very interested in this place, I brought my child here."

Chu Yunxing nodded silently.

The answer was exactly the same as what he had found in his investigation, but it wasn't the answer he wanted to hear.

"You must have had a tough time raising the child," Chu Yunxing continued, trying to probe.

"After the baby was born, Fenghe and I took care of him together. Luckily, he helped me, otherwise I would have been overwhelmed."

When Ji Fenghe was mentioned, a smile appeared on her face.

Without even thinking, one can guess the relationship between the two of them.

Chu Yunxing felt a pang of jealousy, but suppressed his dissatisfaction and nodded gently.

"I see."

"Excuse me for asking, but who is the child's father...?"

This is something Chu Yunxing has always shared that you should know.

Assistant Lu's investigations yielded no results, suggesting that someone was deliberately concealing the child's father's identity.

"I'm sorry, I've forgotten. I had an accident and lost my memories of him. But according to those around me, he probably treated me badly." Bai Wan'er showed no reaction whatsoever when talking about her husband.

She seemed to be recounting the past of a stranger, having no memory of it.

Chu Yunxing's emotions were complicated. If what Bai Wan'er said was true, it completely matched Song Mai's situation.

"But it's hard to say, since I have no impression of him at all. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but at least it saves me a lot of trouble." Bai Wan'er sighed helplessly with a smile on her face.

This sight made Chu Yunxing's heart clench, as if he had been squeezed hard by a large hand. His eyes were full of heartache as he looked at Bai Wan'er.

From the moment he could hear her thoughts, the person in front of him was no longer designer Bai Wan'er, but his legal wife Song Mai.

"Let's not talk about these things, let's talk about you. Since I returned to China, I've heard many people say that I look very much like your wife." Bai Wan'er hesitated for a moment, then asked curiously, "You two must have a very good relationship."

"Yes, we talk about everything and are each other's best partners."

Chu Yunxing slowly looked out the window.

Every corner of this city holds shared memories for the two of them.

He didn't know how to face the past. Just thinking about Song Mai made him feel like a million ants were gnawing at his heart, suffocating him so much that he couldn't breathe.

"I'm sorry to have brought up painful memories, but I couldn't help being curious. I've seen her posts before; she's a very charming girl. I always felt we were very compatible and could perhaps become close friends who can talk about anything."

Unfortunately, fate played a cruel trick on her, and Bai Wan'er could only sigh in her heart, unable to say it out loud.

After a moment, she sighed softly.

"Don't sigh. Life will always get better. Life can't be all downhill. She taught me that, and I'm passing it on to you now." Chu Yunxing looked at her with a gentle smile.

"Next week is An'an's fourth birthday, and this is an invitation."

Chu Yunxing's smile froze instantly as he looked at the red invitation.

If An'an is four years old, and if the girl in front of her is really Song Mai, then it means that in the past five years, she has married and had children with another man.

Based on the age, An'an is not his child.

Chu Yunxing stared blankly at the invitation, remaining silent for a long time.

Bai Wan'er looked at him with concern and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

His voice deepened, and he took the invitation with his large, well-defined hand, forcing a smile as he said, "I will be there on time."

Bai Wan'er is new here and there are still many things to hand over.

This birthday party also needs to be prepared in advance, since many people from Southern Metropolis Daily have been invited.

Initially, she didn't want to make the birthday party so grand, after all, she wanted to prioritize An An's feelings.

But Ji Fenghe's constant persuasion made her realize that this was an opportunity to make connections with powerful and influential people.

If I want to stay here peacefully in the future, I will inevitably have to come into contact with this group of people.

Instead of creating opportunities later, it's better to make the most of the opportunities we have now.

She glanced at her watch and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have other things to do later, so I can't keep you company."

Chu Yunxing nodded understandingly and thoughtfully reminded him, "Don't forget your belongings, or you'll be meeting me soon."

Bai Wan'er couldn't help but chuckle and nodded helplessly.

The smile on Chu Yunxing's face vanished the moment she left the restaurant and disappeared from his sight.

He looked at the tableware in front of him and snapped his fingers.

The waiter quickly approached, bent down, and asked, "Master Yun, what can I do for you?"

"These utensils can be taken away without washing."

Although the request was strange, the man in front of him was, after all, Chu Yunxing, who held absolute power in Nandu, so he naturally dared not refuse the request.

After packing up the tableware, he rushed to the hospital and went straight to Jiang Jibai's office.

Jiang Jibai was engrossed in studying the case and didn't even look up when he noticed someone coming in. Instead, he said sternly, "Don't you know how to knock before coming in?"

Chu Yunxing paused, took two steps back, and gently knocked on the door.

"Can we come in now?"

Jiang Jibai sighed helplessly: "Stop making a fuss. There are too many patients lately, and it's inevitable that we'll be too busy to attend to everything."

"These are the tableware Bai Wan'er used. You need to do the DNA testing for me. You have to do it yourself; you can't give it to anyone else."

Since the other party was able to conceal Bai Wan'er's background so easily, it means that the force behind them is not simple. With Ji Fenghe's abilities, there is absolutely no way to handle things so discreetly.

To be on the safe side, absolutely no third person should get involved.

"Don't worry, leave this to me." Jiang Jibai nodded seriously and turned to the side.

Chu Yunxing sighed wearily, hoping the DNA test results wouldn't disappoint him.

As he walked out of the hospital, a figure silently raised a camera and filmed Chu Yunxing's every move, a smug smile playing on their lips.
