Chapter 8: You Can’t Pay the Compensation for Teaching Me Bad Things
Xu Nianyi was actually a little confused. According to the time calculation, there were only one year and three months, or fifteen months, left before her birth.
A pregnancy lasts ten months, which means there are only five months left before her mother becomes pregnant.
Xu Nianyi originally thought that Ruan Yunheng should at least have a girlfriend, but he didn't even have anyone he liked.
In this case, how could she suddenly have sex with someone and even give birth to a child within five months?
But love is hard to predict. Maybe within these five months he will suddenly meet someone he likes and their passion will be unstoppable.
But all the unmarried girls of marriageable age in the Xu family were here, and he looked around but couldn't find any of them that he liked.
Even Xu Nianyi didn't particularly like anyone and couldn't think of anyone here who could be her mother.
Ruan Yunheng was annoyed and said that he might as well not look for his mother.
After all, he didn't really want to get married and have children early, and he didn't want to die early.
He really isn't that down on his luck.
Xu Nianyi no longer had any thoughts about looking at people.
But it was impossible not to look for it, she thought, maybe she was going in the wrong direction.
In fact, she has always suspected that her mother was an illegitimate daughter of the Xu family who was not in the public eye, so it has always been a taboo and a shameful existence.
Xu Nianyi hesitated and lowered his voice to ask Ruan Yunheng, "Does the Xu family have any other illegitimate daughters?"
Ruan Yunheng was stunned. "Illegitimate daughter?"
Outside the banquet hall, Xie Yanwen was answering the phone. He didn't know what was said on the other end of the line, and he was also a little surprised, "Illegitimate daughter?"
Jiang Yuan on the other end of the phone said, "Yes, I just checked. Xu Nianyi first appeared 20 days ago. Ruan Yunheng took her to the hospital for a checkup and specifically reminded the doctor to check her head carefully.
She only got into Ocean University ten days ago through connections. Even her identity was fake. Ruan Yunheng must have hired someone to make it for her. She lives alone and her parents died early. Other than that, there's no information about her; it's completely blank.
Jiang Yuan has been with Xie Yanwen since high school. He is his friend, but in fact, he is also the bodyguard and assistant placed by Xie's father by Xie Yanwen's side, cultivating the tacit understanding between him and Xie Yanwen since childhood.
The source of Jiang Yuan's investigation information is naturally reliable.
There was a reason why he guessed that Xu Nianyi was the illegitimate daughter of the Xu family.
The Xu family has the most chaotic relationships among the three major families in Haidu. Compared with the Xie family and the Ruan family, the Xu family is like a small feudal dynasty with strict rules and chaotic people, and there are countless illegitimate children.
In order to avoid making a fool of themselves and to make the best use of their resources, the identities of these illegitimate children of the Xu family would be erased and kept in captivity. They would only be taken back when the Xu family needed them.
These illegitimate children have no identity and will be given various fake identities according to needs after they are brought back.
After so many years, some of these illegitimate children are no longer members of the Xu family. They were found by the Xu family using various means and trained like spies.
But to the outside world, they were still said to be the Xu family's illegitimate children.
Xie Yanwen knew all of the Xu family's secrets, of course. "So you suspect Xu Nianyi is an illegitimate daughter the Xu family took back just to get close to Ruan Yunheng, or even me..."
"I can't think of any other possibility."
His surname is Xu, and his identity information is blank. He suddenly appeared next to Ruan Yunheng and deliberately approached Xie Yanwen.
Jiang Yuan could only guess this possibility.
"Then her way of approaching is quite special."
“It’s useful to be special.”
Look, isn’t this a sign of interest in her? Hasn’t he started observing and investigating her?
In the past, Xie Yanwen wouldn’t even glance at other women who approached him.
Jiang Yuan's words reminded Xie Yanwen of Xu Nianyi's pitiful eyes at the police station last night, and the smile on her face when he went to the police station to pick her up this morning, and also of what Ruan Yunheng said in the banquet hall just now.
Pursing his thin lips for a moment, Xie Yanwen chuckled, "It was quite successful."
At least now it seems that that fool Ruan Yunheng has believed it.
And he himself...
He also admitted that he was a little confused because of Xu Nianyi.
"But don't you think it's too obvious?"
Xie Yanwen's gaze fell towards the banquet hall, but he couldn't see Xu Nianyi's location there.
"If the Xu family wanted to use her to get close to us, why would they do it so obviously? At least they shouldn't let her use the surname Xu."
Besides, the toilet explosion was real. If what she said was false, how did she know about it?
Jiang Yuan listened to his tone and said, "Brother, you don't really believe those nonsense she said until now, do you?"
Are you still my wise and intelligent brother?
Xie Yanwen lowered his eyes, remained silent for a moment, and suddenly curled his lips into a chuckle, "Believe it or not, just try it again and you'll know."
"How do you try?"
Jiang Yuan was puzzled: "Do you want to do a DNA test?"
The simplest and most direct method is of course to do DNA.
Xie Yanwen didn't answer, but with a smile on his lips, he casually said a few words and asked Jiang Yuan to continue investigating the places where the Xu family's illegitimate children were kept, then hung up the phone.
In the past, he really had no interest in these messy things of the Xu family. He just thought it was ridiculous to know that the Xu family had illegitimate children. But now he inexplicably wants to know more.
What if she really is?
Although this possibility made him feel a little complicated.
Xie Yanwen hung up the phone and re-entered the banquet hall. The two little mice were still leaning against each other and whispering, and they were even closer than before, with their heads touching and their faces almost touching.
Xie Yanwen said coldly with a bad temper.
There are so many things you can't say. Why can't you just talk properly? Why do you have to get so close to me?
Xu Nianyi was also listening to Ruan Yunheng talking about the Xu family's secrets. Because it was too private, he naturally moved closer and spoke in a low voice.
Xu Nianyi knew that the Xu family was in chaos before, but she never expected it to be so chaotic.
Just as I was surprised by what I heard, the light in front of my eyes suddenly dimmed, a shadow covered me, and a feeling of oppression came over me instantly.
The air suddenly became quiet, and Xu Nianyi and Ruan Yunheng looked up at the same time.
The person standing in front of him was wearing a black shirt and black pants. Because they were sports style, they were loose and comfortable and not dull. He also wore a black baseball cap, which was pulled low and half covered his eyebrows.
With his hands in his pockets, he looked at them lazily with his eyes lowered.
Strange yet familiar.
Xu Nianyi was startled at first, then surprise flashed in her eyes, and even her voice was filled with joy, "Why are you here?"
Ruan Yunheng rolled his eyes.
No future!
Xie Yanwen met Xu Nianyi's blazing eyes, remained silent for two seconds, then looked away at Ruan Yunheng.
Ruan Yunheng curled his lips at him, sneered, and said in a mocking tone, "Are you here for a blind date?"
Everyone knows what the Xu family's purpose is for today's banquet. Most of the people coming from other families are young people in their twenties. Xie Yanwen's appearance here is most likely due to his family asking him to come.
After all, whether or not you like her is one thing, but at least you have to maintain the relationship on the surface.
What's more, the Xie family and the Xu family have always been at odds, and the two families have long wanted to make peace.
Ruan Yunheng's tone was unfriendly, but Xie Yanwen ignored him. He withdrew his gaze and sat down on the other side of Xu Nianyi, leaning back leisurely on the sofa. Then he answered Xu Nianyi's previous question in a very casual tone, "Of course I'm here to help the tadpole find its mother."
Xu Nianyi and Ruan Yunheng: "..."
As he spoke, Xie Yanwen tilted his head to look at Xu Nianyi, and leaned slightly closer to her. He finished his words with a subtle and playful tone, "Tell me, who does our little tadpole want to be your mother?"
As he spoke, he casually pointed in several directions with his chin, "Is it that big goldfish, or that big white goose?"
Xu Nianyi and Ruan Yunheng looked in the direction he pointed. A girl in a yellow dress and a girl in a white dress were both members of the Xu family.
They both: “…”
Xu Nianyi felt a little complicated.
He was quite sharp-tongued when he was young. Did these two girls offend him?
But, did he really believe that he was her father?
Ruan Yunheng looked at Xie Yanwen with complicated eyes, and upon closer inspection, with mockery in his eyes. He was laughing wildly in his heart: This idiot, hahahaha!
However, Ruan Yunheng would not say this out loud. After all, his relationship with Xu Nianyi was a secret and could not be known to others.
So he pretended to be confused and asked, "What mother are you looking for?"
Xie Yanwen glanced at his pretense and laughed at him inwardly, calling him an idiot. However, his expression remained unchanged. He raised an eyebrow at Xu Nianyi, "He doesn't know?"
Xu Nianyi: “…”
Xie Yanwen must have been asking whether Ruan Yunheng knew about his father's affairs.
But Xie Yanwen didn't know that Ruan Yunheng was his real father.
Of course Xu Nianyi didn't know what to say, so he could only shake his head slowly.
Xie Yanwen expressed his understanding, but then he scolded, "Since he doesn't know anything, what is your relationship with him? Why are you so close to him?"
The tone of an elder questioning a younger person.
Xu Nianyi now understood what it meant to cover up one lie with countless lies.
Before she could figure out how to explain, Ruan Yunheng snorted, "What's the relationship between me and Yiyi? What does it have to do with you?"
Xie Yanwen crossed his arms, smiled nonchalantly, and said to Xu Nianyi, "Tell him, does this have anything to do with me?"
Xu Nianyi: "...It doesn't matter. You really are meddling too much."
Too much control?
Haha, I don’t know who was calling “bb” and “daddy” all the time before!
Why didn't you say they had nothing to do with each other then?
Xie Yanwen sneered softly, "What did you call me before? If you call me that, do you think I can control you?"
Xu Nianyi realized that she had completely trapped herself. This man really regarded her as his daddy, but now they couldn't tell him that Ruan Yunheng was her daddy.
He might die of rage!
"He and I..."
Just as she was about to explain, Ruan Yunheng had already kicked the coffee table in front of him and glared at Xie Yanwen coldly, "What do you care? I'm telling you, I just..."
He is Xu Nianyi's father. It's impossible for Xie Yanwen to be his son-in-law!
But before he could finish his words, Xu Nianyi raised her hand and covered his mouth, warning him with her eyes not to talk nonsense.
Ruan Yunheng glared at her, and Xie Yanwen's eyes instantly became displeased.
He grabbed Xu Nianyi's wrist and took her hand away from Ruan Yunheng's mouth, saying in a dissatisfied tone, "You put your hands on everything, don't you think it's dirty?"
Xu Nianyi: “?”
She turned to look at Xie Yanwen, saw the dissatisfaction in his eyes, then lowered her eyes to look at her hands.
His slender fingers clasped her wrist tightly, squeezing it hard enough to make it hurt.
But he didn't know and didn't let go. Instead, he leaned over and took a wet tissue from the coffee table, as if he wanted to wipe her hands.
Xu Nianyi suddenly felt that something was wrong with Xie Yanwen.
Does he completely believe that he is her father?
Otherwise, what does this sudden change in attitude mean?
He was quite cold when we separated in the morning.
Just as she was doubting it, Xie Yanwen had already placed a wet tissue in her palm, and rubbed it across her palm with a force that was neither too light nor too heavy, like an electric current that was unexpectedly generated. Xu Nianyi's eyelashes trembled along with her heart.
It must have been a long time ago. Even the simple act of holding hands seemed to have happened a long, long time ago.
Before they divorced, he had already begun to distance himself from her and treat her coldly.
It had been so long that she almost forgot what it felt like.
It turns out that no matter how long they have been apart, no matter when he is, as long as he gets close to her, her heart will be as moved as before.
It's really useless.
Xu Nianyi complained about herself, but couldn't control herself from indulging in it. She knew that the corners of her mouth were looking for the sun, but she just couldn't suppress it.
Ruan Yunheng watched Xie Yanwen's actions and his temper instantly flared up. "Fuck, Xie Yanwen, you bastard, what the hell is wrong with me?"
"Your words are dirty enough."
Xie Yanwen spoke indifferently, his eyes fixed only on Xu Nianyi's palm.
Her palms were white with a light pink, and the lines on them were delicate, and the wet wipes felt soft to the touch.
Why are her hands so soft?
She was so soft that he began to worry that he might be using too much force and hurt her.
But even if it hurts, it's what he deserves. A disobedient child should be punished so that he will learn his lesson.
He was thinking randomly, without adjusting the strength of his grip on her wrist, and added lightly, "Watch your mouth in front of her."
After a pause, he raised his eyes and glanced at Ruan Yunheng, saying coldly, "If you teach him bad things, you can't afford to pay for it."
Ruan Yunheng: “?”
She's my own daughter, how could I have taught her bad things?
Don’t you see how cute she is now? Isn’t that the result of my education?
He gritted his teeth, "Yiyi, tell him that I taught you..."
Before he could finish his words, he paused.
Xu Nianyi still let Xie Yanwen hold her wrist, staring at him infatuatedly, her eyes sparkling, her eyelashes fluttering like a butterfly, and a silly smile that she couldn't suppress at the corner of her lips.
She didn't even notice that her father was being bullied by this bastard, and was still obsessed with him.
Ruan Yunheng almost couldn't catch his breath.
grass!
It's really spoiled.
Unfilial daughter!
