Chapter 85
"Xiao Shi? Is Xiao Shi here?" the old lady shouted.
Nan Tao was perplexed. Could this little boy be Manshi and Yunzhe's? It couldn't be that ridiculous.
"Are you looking for Manshi?"
The old lady took two steps back, looked up at the sign, and asked doubtfully, "That's right, am I mistaken?"
Nan Tao said, "I'm not mistaken. The owner of the B&B has changed in the past few days. It will be replaced in a few days."
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and walked over with the little boy. "Excuse me, I'm going to look for Manshi."
Nan Tao nodded, made a call on the landline at the cash register, and then said, "I just called Manshi, she'll be here soon. Who is this child?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Xiao Shi is such a pitiful child. When I first saw her, she was still young. She came here to work, pregnant, and working two or three jobs a day. Fortunately, Xiao Shi has grown up and has endured the hard times."
Nan Tao looked down at the little boy, who was wearing a black short overalls with a white short T-shirt. He looked very handsome, and his looks combined the best features of Man Shi and Yun Zhe. He would become a handsome boy when he grew up.
But the child seemed a little shy and held the old lady's legs tightly.
Nan Tao took out some snacks that the children liked from the drawer and handed them over, saying gently, "Here."
The little boy shook his head shyly and clung to the old lady's hand.
"Xiao Wang." A panicked voice came from behind.
When Nan Tao turned around, she saw Man Shi running towards her in a panic.
Manshi quickly scooped the child up into her arms, looking around cautiously. Seeing no one was around, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Grandma Li, did something happen at the kindergarten?"
The old lady waved her hands quickly. "No, no, my daughter came here unexpectedly to pick me up and asked me to stay at her house for a few days. I thought there was no one at home, and you were busy with work and had no time. I was worried about Xiaowang being alone at home, so I wanted to take him with me."
Man Shi was in a dilemma, but finally said, "It's okay, go ahead. Xiao Wang and I have already caused you a lot of trouble. I will bring him to work with me these few days."
The old lady said with a stern face, "What trouble are you talking about? You are so forgetful. In my eyes, you are my own granddaughter."
Man Shi quickly coaxed him, "Go out and have fun. Don't worry about me and Xiao Wang. The boss treats me very well. Don't worry."
Grandma: “This…”
Nan Tao: "We have many children here and we can play with them."
As they were talking, Yu Ze, Yang Xuan and four other children came running in from outside, chattering. Their faces were all red, and they were obviously having a lot of fun.
Nan Tao wanted to continue speaking when she suddenly heard Yu Ze's inner voice and was stunned.
[Tongtong, you said this little boy is Manshi and Yunjing's?]
Who are Manshi and Yunjing?
[Oh, so that's how it is. Yun Jing is actually Yun Zhe's uncle.]
After hearing this, Nan Tao couldn't help but complain in her heart.
Netizens who had been watching the live broadcast and enjoying the show were suddenly excited when they saw the message "Have you eaten the show today?" floating on the screen.
[Ahhh, what? This little boy isn't Yunzhe's, but Yunjing's, and Yunjing is Yunzhe's uncle?]
[What kind of ridiculous plot from a novel is this? It actually happened in real life.]
[As expected, following Tao Jie brings good news, hahaha.]
[When I first saw the little boy, I thought it was Yunzhe's child. I thought it was too disgusting. I didn't expect it to be Yunzhe's uncle's. Hahahaha, I was so happy.]
[When I think about Yunzhe possibly calling Manshi "Auntie" in the future, I suddenly feel so happy.]
[Is this true? It can’t be this ridiculous.]
"What if, I mean what if, Li Qian is really with Yun Zhe, and Man Shi is with Yun Jing, wouldn't Li Qian have to call Man Shi "Auntie"? Oh my god, just thinking about this scene is so exciting. I hope Li Qian won't be so angry that she will vomit blood."
Netizens watching the live broadcast were talking about it and gossiping. At this moment, in the live broadcast, Zhang Tong saw Xiao Manwang, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly ran over and circled around Manwang.
"Little brother, what's your name?" Zhang Tong chattered.
Man Wang was a little shy and reserved. He nestled in Man Shi's arms, cautiously sticking his head out to look at everyone, with a hint of envy and longing in his eyes.
Man Shi felt distressed, touched Man Wang's little head, and encouraged him: "Tell your sister, what is your name~"
Man Wang said shyly: "My name is Man Wang."
Zhang Tong exclaimed, "What a nice name! Do you want to play with us?"
Man Wang looked at Gang Tong, then at Yu Ze and Zhan Li, and whispered, "Is it okay?"
Zhang Tong said happily, "Of course."
Manshi: "Go ahead and play outside with the little brother and sister."
Nan Tao, who was standing by, was about to say that she wanted to eat, but after seeing this, she hesitated for a moment and said, "Come in and eat after playing for a while. It's almost time for dinner."
Zhang Tong: "I understand, Aunt Taozi."
Yu Ze: "Mommy, I'm going out."
Nan Tao waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, be careful and don't fall."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of children ran out.
Man Wang seemed to like Yu Ze and Zhan Li very much, and kept following them to play.
Just as the children were having fun, Man Wang was happily running behind the older kids. Suddenly, he stumbled and was knocked to the ground. He was stunned for a few seconds, feeling the burning pain in his little hand, and tears instantly burst out.
Yunzhe looked at the little brat who suddenly appeared and blocked the road, and said impatiently: "Get out of the way, don't block here, whose child is so uneducated."
Although Man Wang was too young to understand, he could sense the displeasure coming from the adults and sobbed softly in fear.
"What are you doing?!" Yu Ze and Zhan Li hurried over, stood in front of Man Wang, and asked Yun Zhe angrily.
Yunzhe was blocked by a group of children at the entrance of the yard, with an unhappy expression, "Whose children are you? Get out of the way."
Yu Ze said coldly: "You bullied Xiao Wang, apologize to Xiao Wang."
Zhan Li: "Apologize!"
Zhang Tong pinched her waist and said, "Bad guy! You bullied my new friend. Apologize to Xiao Wang, or I won't let you go!"
Little Yang Xuan said in a baby voice, "Apologize to Wangwang."
Yunzhe was overwhelmed. He looked down at the crying little boy hiding behind the older children. His anger rose in his heart and he blurted out, "You're so young, you only know how to cry and act like a sissy. You can only hide behind others and are useless."
When Yu Ze heard this, he glared at Yun Zhe, "Xiao Wang's hands are all scratched."
Yunzhe was stunned and said in disbelief: "Are you guys trying to scam me?! He ran over and bumped into me, and fell down. I didn't even move, and he broke my skin with such little strength. Is it made of paper?"
Zhan Li: "If you don't apologize, I'll find an adult!"
Yunzhe frowned. It was impossible for him to apologize to the little brat. He sneered and said, "Okay, go ahead."
Zhan Li and Yu Ze talked in low voices for a few moments, then turned back to look for the adults.
When Yunzhe saw that he was running towards the B&B, he had a bad feeling.
Yu Ze: "Stand here and don't leave."
Yunzhe sneered: "Don't worry."
After Zhang Tong calmed Man Wang down, he helped him stand up and pointed at Yun Zhe, "Xiao Wang, was it him who bumped into you?"
Man Wang looked up at Yun Zhe, "It's him!"
Yunzhe was about to refute when his eyes fell on Manwang's fair and tender face. His pupils shrank, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Zhang Tong shouted loudly: "Bad guy, what else do you have to say now!"
Yunzhe stretched out his hand tremblingly, wanting to touch Manwang's face.
Man Wang shrank his neck in fear.
Yu Ze and Zhang Tong stood in front of Man Wang, "What are you going to do?!"
Yunzhe's eyes were red and his lips parted, "I, I...what's his name?"
Zhang Tong: "Humph, of course I call you Xiaowang."
Yunzhe squatted down, staring at Manwang without blinking, as if afraid of missing out on the most precious thing. He asked cautiously, "What's your mother's name? Where's your father?"
Man Wang didn't like the bad guy in front of him, so he turned his neck and hid behind Yu Ze.
Seeing this, Yunzhe wished he could go back two minutes and slap himself.
This is my own son.
What did he just do!
Not only did he bump into his own son, but he also made accusations without thinking.
He was just a child, such a small creature. How could you have the heart to say such harsh words to a child?
Yunzhe looked at the little boy whose eyebrows and eyes were similar to his own and to Manshi's, and he had already determined in his heart that this was the son that Manshi had given birth to him.
Thinking of the bad things I did to Manshi in the past, my heart ached.
How did Manshi manage to raise her children alone over the years?
Thinking of Manshi and the child living a life of displacement and poverty, Yunzhe couldn't help but touch his heart, and the pain became even worse.
"Xiao Wang, I, I am you..." Yunzhe spoke with difficulty.
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by several people who came rushing over.
Man Shi hurriedly checked Man Wang's wound. Seeing the skin on his tender palm being rubbed by the fall on the concrete floor, her eyes turned red and she raised her hand to slap Yun Zhe.
Nan Tao and Jiang Hui, who arrived later, stopped and looked at Yun Zhe with bright eyes.
Yunzhe turned his face to the side, and five red finger marks appeared on his face.
"Xiao Shi, I..."
Man Shi saw that he didn't even look at Yun Zhe, and comforted Man Wang distressedly, "Be good, does it hurt?"
Man Wangwo nestled into Man Shi's arms and said like a little adult, "Shuhu, the pain will go away."
Manshi couldn't hold back her tears and choked up, "Okay, mom will blow it for you."
Man Wang: "Mom, don't cry."
Manshi wiped her tears and forced a smile, "Don't cry, Mom. Huhu~ Does it hurt?"
Man Wang smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Yunzhe looked at this scene and felt heartbroken. "Xiao Shi, the child is..."
Man Shi stood up holding Man Wang and said coldly, "The child has nothing to do with you."
Yunzhe's eyes were red. He blocked the way of Manshi and her son and whispered hopefully, "I know I'm sorry, but I'm Xiaowang's father, right?"
Man Shi said with disgust: "Don't try to be so acquainted with relatives. The child has nothing to do with you. Don't be so self-indulgent."
Yunzhe's heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, and his eyes were red. "I know you were just saying that in anger. The child looks so much like me, how could it not be mine? I'm a bastard. If I had known earlier..."
Manshi: "Get out of the way!"
Yunzhe: "Xiao Shi, please don't be like this. The child cannot live without a father. Do you have the heart to let him live in a single-parent family?"
Manshi took a deep breath and laughed angrily, "Get lost!"
Man Wangtian said innocently, "Mom, who is he? He just said I was uneducated."
Yunzhe explained in a panic: "I don't know Xiaowang is..."
Man Shi interrupted, "The child's father died a long time ago. It has nothing to do with you. If you are so short of children, you can have Li Qiansheng."
Yunzhe was unhappy when he heard the first half of the sentence, and felt guilty when he heard the second half, "Xiao Shi, Qianqian and I..."
Man Shi: "I'm not interested in listening."
After saying that, he turned around and left with Man Wang in his arms. As soon as he entered the lobby of the B&B, he ran into Li Qian, who was dressed in a pure and lovely manner.
