"Oh, my darling, why are you so happy to see your dad come back? It's not like you haven't seen your dad for many days, why did you miss him so much!" He Yan felt a little less sad when he saw his child's attitude towards him.
The older one is heartless, but the younger one is much more conscientious.
"Yes, yes, I miss my dad so much." Kang An said, kissing He Yan a few times.
Seeing Kang An so happily throwing herself into He Yan's arms, Xiao Hua felt even more uneasy. She said that she loved her mother the most, but in her heart, her love for her father was no less than that for her mother. She felt that her mother had worked hard to raise her for three years, while her father had only raised her for half a year.
In her heart, her father is already comparable to her mother, and perhaps in time he will even be more important than her mother.
Of course, now is not the time for her to be jealous, but rather for her to figure out how to help her child accept the fact that their father has left their home without getting hurt.
"Take the child inside to sleep. Once he's asleep, come out and we can have a proper talk."
After saying that, Xiaohua went into the bedroom to get her clothes and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
He Yan glanced at her and carried the child into the room.
Xiao Hua quickly took a shower. When she came out, He Yan was still in Kang An's room, and Xiao Hua was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
It was almost one o'clock when he came out.
Xiaohua pointed to the stool: "Sit down, let's talk."
He Yan sat down and sat facing her.
"Let's talk about Kang'an..."
"Are you really trying to get rid of me because you don't want me to live here anymore?"
Just as Xiao Hua was about to talk about Kang An, He Yan interrupted her.
“He Yan, we were never related. You just need to worry about the child. I don’t need you at all!”
Xiaohua knew that saying this would hurt him, but he still insisted that a short pain was better than a long one.
"You love him that much?"
He Yan seemed not to understand her; she said one thing, and he said another.
“I’ve already said this is my business and has nothing to do with you. We’re divorced, and it’s not right for you to live in my house every day.”
Xiaohua felt that he had angered her.
He Yan stubbornly persisted in this topic: "So now you love him so much that you can't stand me living here with the child."
Xiao Hua wanted to pinch her philtrum, afraid that He Yan would anger her to death in the next second.
"Are you deaf?"
Xiaohua angrily growled at him, "Since you can't understand human language, I don't want to waste my breath on you. Please take your things and move out of my house as soon as it's light!"
He Yan looked at her angrily and said, word by word, "Am I not going to leave? Don't even think about kicking me out."
"He Yan, have you no shame!"
There are such shameless people in the world. She had already told him to leave, but he still insisted on staying here.
"I don't know if I have any shame, but you certainly do."
He Yan gave a cold snort.
Who are you calling shameless?
Xiao Hua jumped up immediately.
"I'm talking to you, Ye Xiaohua. You're a woman with a child, and you're still flirting with other men outside. Do you have any shame? Why do you come back at night? You might as well just sleep at that man's house and have sex with him."
"Smack!"
Xiao Hua slapped He Yan hard across the face.
Her eyes turned red with anger at He Yan.
"Why are you getting angry because I hit a nerve?"
He Yan continued to provoke her relentlessly, seemingly unafraid of death.
Xiaohua was panting heavily.
“He Yan, do you know what you are like right now? You’re like a guy who can’t get a girlfriend and starts spreading malicious rumors about her. How are you any different from that piece of trash I met at school who spread pornographic rumors? You keep calling him a wild man, but what are you? If a man who has nothing to do with me were to live in my house every day, wouldn’t you be even more disgusting than a wild man outside? You can’t get what you want, so you start slandering others.”
Xiao Hua never imagined that He Yan would say such hurtful things to her one day.
Hasn't he always shown her that he respects women? Is this what he considers respect?
"Say whatever you want, I have a clear conscience. Since you insist on being with someone else, I have no right to stop you, but you also have no right to raise the child. I will have custody of the child from now on."
He Yan's harsh words were actually just a way of forcing Xiao Hua to choose between Zhou Musheng and Kang An.
He's gambling!
It's unclear whether Xiaohua loves the child more or the man more.
“I’m not qualified to raise him? He Yan said you’re shameless, and you really are shameless to the extreme. I conceived and gave birth to the child, he takes my surname, and he’s registered in my household. You’re saying I’m not qualified to raise him? Who do you think you are? Years ago, your own mother gave up on this child on your behalf. Kang An’s custody will always belong to me, Ye Xiaohua. You, He Yan, can’t take it away.”
Xiaohua was quite confident about Kang'an's custody. The child took her surname, was registered under her household registration, and had always been raised by her. No one had the right to take the child away from her.
"I'm going to have Kang'an, who do you think I am!"
He Yan refused to budge an inch.
"Let's see what you're capable of doing by trying to steal it."
He Yan should not leave this child, neither out of emotion nor reason.
"Then I'll show you whether I have the ability."
He Yan was no longer holding back at all.
"What, are you trying to use your father's power to intimidate people!"
He Yan's eyes hardened: "If you push me too far, then it's not impossible."
Xiaohua pointed at the door: "Get out of my house! I don't want to see you again!"
He Yan turned around and strode to the door. Just as he was about to leave, he stopped and turned to look at Xiao Hua, who was still furious.
“You can also have other options. Break up with him and we can still be the same as before. Leave the school funding to me, I can solve it for you. As long as you agree, I will give you the money tomorrow.”
He Yan wouldn't have taken advantage of his father's high position to profit from the situation if he wasn't forced to.
But now, he was truly driven to desperation by Xiaohua. If Xiaohua agreed to his proposal, he wouldn't mind risking his father's reputation.
Xiaohua pointed at the door again: "Get out!"
The single word "get lost" already expresses Xiaohua's attitude.
He Yan angrily slammed the door and left.
Xiao Hua slumped dejectedly on the sofa. If He Yan really used his power to intimidate her and take her child away, she was indeed no match for him.
But she gambled that He Yan wouldn't dare! Commander He wouldn't allow it!
Commander He cherishes his reputation so much that he won't let He Yan act recklessly.
He Yan's words were just meant to scare her, hoping to make her submit to him out of fear and helplessness.
With that thought in mind, Xiaohua wasn't so worried anymore.
