Jiang Tingzhou really had no reason to refuse this request.
On the way down the mountain, the two of them finalized their plans for the evening.
Xiaoxiao's kindergarten is responsible for providing dinner.
After picking up Xiaoxiao, Xu Wan took her to the dance studio, helped her change her clothes, and waited until the class started before leaving immediately. Instead, she stood outside the glass, held up her phone, and filmed a video of Xiaoxiao practicing dance, which she then sent to the man's phone.
Xu Wan: [Want to come watch Xiaoxiao dance? She's focused on practicing and won't see you.]
About a minute later, the man replied.
There was no lengthy explanation, just a few simple words: 【Next time.】
Xu Wan held up her phone and looked at it for a while.
The dance class had just started, and the children were practicing their basic skills. She felt there wasn't much to record, so she planned to come back early later and record a video of Xiaoxiao dancing to show the man.
Xu Wan put her phone away and went downstairs.
Three hours isn't a long time; it's more than enough to grab a bite to eat nearby.
The dance class was located on the top floor of a huge shopping mall.
Xu Wan took the elevator directly to the first floor to find Jiang Tingzhou.
She saw Jiang Tingzhou on the first floor of the mall. As she walked toward the man, she noticed that his gaze was fixed in a certain direction, and he remained motionless.
As Xu Wan walked, she followed the man's gaze.
To my surprise, I saw Jiang De'an with the two little boys from yesterday!
The two little boys each held a toy gun, and Jiang De'an was also carrying many bags and bags of things, including toy cars and children's clothes.
The boys' expressions had changed noticeably from yesterday; they seemed to have lost their tension and panic, and their expressions had regained some of their childlike innocence and joy.
Xu Wan's heart skipped a beat. She had intended to take advantage of Jiang De'an's inattention and push Jiang Tingzhou's wheelchair away.
As if sensing something, Jiang De'an looked over as soon as she walked to the man's wheelchair.
As always, Jiang De'an wore a kind smile and beckoned the two children over.
“What a coincidence, Xu Wan.” Jiang De’an turned his smiling gaze to Jiang Tingzhou. “This… must be Mr. Ryan.”
Jiang De'an spoke in a gentle tone.
Looking at him like this, Xu Wan's mind was filled with the image of Jiang De'an, who had arrogantly driven her away from the office after Jiang Tingzhou's accident.
The difference before and after is beyond description; it could even be described as a split personality!
Jiang Tingzhou replied in a deep voice, "Mr. Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you."
After Jiang Tingzhou changed his identity to Ryan, he did not meet with Jiang De'an.
However, since both companies' central research labs developed similar technologies, the conflict was quite obvious.
Jiang De'an couldn't possibly not know what Ryan looked like.
The two children stood obediently to the side.
Jiang De'an looked flattered. "I've heard that Mr. Ryan is in Beicheng for a long time, but I've never had the chance to meet him. I didn't expect to meet him here today. It's fate."
Jiang Tingzhou grunted in response, "We have something to do, we'll be leaving now."
Jiang De'an wasn't angry. Instead, he looked at Xu Wan and said, "Xu Wan, I remember your daughter is learning to dance here, right? When you meet with Mr. Ryan, don't forget your daughter. Xiao Xiao is so pitiful. She already lost her father. If you ignore her, she will definitely be sad and upset."
Xu Wan looked terrible, but she still said, "No, thank you for your concern for my daughter, Mr. Jiang."
Jiang De'an, still beaming, said to the two little boys, "Xiao Qi and Xiao Lin, say goodbye to your uncle and aunt."
The two little boys cooperated and said goodbye to the two people.
Only after Jiang De'an and the two children had walked away did Xu Wan's tense expression finally show some nervousness.
Jiang Tingzhou noticed this and reached out to hold the woman's hand, finding her palm sweaty. He then asked, "Are you alright? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
"No." Xu Wan's face was pale as she gently shook her head. "I've hardly contacted Jiang De'an in recent years. I even told Mom before that you warned me to be careful of him. Mom wouldn't tell him where Xiaoxiao is studying, but he just knew for sure that Xiaoxiao is here to learn to dance today..."
As Xu Wan spoke, a chill ran down her spine.
It's very difficult to guess what Jiang De'an is thinking.
Given that he was capable of killing Jiang Tingzhou back then, and is now paying special attention to Xiaoxiao, it's really hard not to have wild thoughts.
