Yang Niannian was not at all surprised by Huang Danping's decision. It was expected and any woman would have made the same choice.

She sighed, "Nian Fei didn't want to disturb your life, so he didn't recognize you."

Huang Danping smiled bitterly, "Nianfei is good in every way except that he doesn't love me."

After a moment's silence, she continued speaking with some difficulty.

"You know, I married Jiping's uncle, which means I'm marrying up. In order to marry me smoothly, her uncle hid the fact that I had a child from my family. Jiping's family doesn't know that I had a child. Can you keep it a secret for me?"

There was no Internet in those days, so as long as you were not in the same city, you could get as many marriage certificates as you wanted.

Yang Niannian expressed her opinion.

"I'm not familiar with Du Jiping, so I won't gossip in front of her for no reason."

This was something that had nothing to do with her, and if it wasn't for An An, she wouldn't have meddled in it.

Huang Danping breathed a sigh of relief and immediately showed her sincerity, addressing Yang Niannian in a more intimate manner.

"Niannian, thank you for taking care of An'an for so long. I'm sorry for causing you trouble. After Director Dai of the Education Bureau got into trouble, my husband became the director. If you need my help in the future, I will definitely do my best."

Yang Niannian didn't need Huang Danping's help with anything, but more friends mean more paths, and she didn't want to narrow her path, so she nodded.

"An An is very well behaved and didn't cause me any trouble."

Huang Danping's heart ached, "I am not worthy of being An An's mother. Over the years, I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother."

Yang Niannian didn't want to stand on the moral high ground to accuse anyone. After chatting for so long, she felt a little thirsty. She picked up the tea on the table, drank it all, and stood up.

"I have something else to do later, so I'll go back first."

After thinking about it, she reminded him again, "You should handle the formalities with Nianfei as soon as possible! Otherwise, if outsiders find out, it will be bad for Nianfei and your husband."

Huang Danping knew that Yang Niannian meant well, so she stood up as well, "I'll discuss this with my husband when I get home."

The two left the teahouse together. Huang Danping did not go home, but went directly to the gate opposite the Education Bureau to wait for her husband to get off work.

About twenty minutes later, a group of people came out of the Education Bureau pushing bicycles, and everyone noticed Huang Danping standing opposite them.

Jokingly said.

"Director Xie, your wife is here to pick you up, so we'll leave first."

Xie Hongxin wore a pair of black-framed glasses, had regular facial features, was tall and thin, and looked like a well-read university professor.

He said goodbye to his colleagues with a smile, pushed his bicycle to Huang Danping, and seeing that she looked worried, he asked her with concern.

"What's wrong? Did Steady and Naughty make you angry?"

Wenwen is their daughter. She cannot speak yet and usually babbles. She is very cute when she is cute, but also very annoying when she is naughty.

Huang Danping didn't know how to start the conversation, so she held Xie Hongxin's arm tightly and mustered up a lot of courage before speaking.

"Hongxin, he, he is not dead, he is still alive, and he already knows that we are married and have a child."

Xie Hongxin was stunned for a moment before he realized who the 'he' his wife was referring to was.

A dead person suddenly came back to life, and he was a little confused for a moment, so he asked with a frown.

"He came to see you?"

Huang Danping shook her head with a worried look on her face.

"No, I met someone I know."

Xie Hongxin calmly comforted him, "Don't worry, let's go home and talk about it."

Huang Danping also knew that it was not a good idea to say these things in front of her husband's workplace, so she got on his bicycle and went home together.

The nanny took the child to grandmother's house, so there were only the two of them at home, which was a perfect time to talk about things.

After hearing the whole story, Xie Hongxin made a decisive decision, "I will go to the company to ask for leave tomorrow, and we will go to Haicheng the day after tomorrow."

He held Huang Danping's hand in his and continued speaking earnestly.

"Danping, we are married now and have a child. No matter what happened between you and that man, it is all in the past. I think he didn't recognize you after he knew you were pregnant because he didn't want to disturb your life. I hope you can let go of the past and we can raise Weng well."

Huang Danping thought so too, but when she thought of her son, she couldn't help feeling guilty and choked up.

"Poor An An, I don't know how he has been living these years."

She is no longer a girl of eighteen or nineteen. Love cannot satisfy her. She has lived a stable life over the years. Her husband loves her and they have a lovely daughter. She is very content.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. She knows this and has weighed the pros and cons in her mind and knows how to make the choice.

Xie Hongxin was quite reasonable. "This time, you should spend two days with the child and buy him some food and other things. I will also accompany you to visit the child when I have time in the future."

Huang Danping leaned on his shoulder with emotion, "How great it would have been if I had met you first."

If I had met Xie Hongxin first, my heart wouldn't be missing a piece.

I'm afraid I won't be able to make it up to An An in this lifetime.

Xie Hongxin patted her on the shoulder. He felt a strange feeling in his heart when he thought about meeting his wife's ex, but he was a man and had to stand up and solve these problems.

They had originally planned to go to the Haicheng troop the next day after taking leave, but their child suddenly had a fever, which delayed them for a while. By the time they arrived in Haicheng, it was already half a month later.

Lu Nianfei was not surprised by the arrival of the two. As long as he was not dead, Huang Danping would come to find him sooner or later. It was just that this day came a little earlier than he expected.

The three of them agreed to meet at the Haicheng Teahouse. When Lu Nianfei arrived there, Huang Danping and Xie Hongxin had already ordered tea and were waiting there.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally, Huang Danping still almost cried when she saw Lu Nianfei again.

Putting aside the issue of their relationship, the two grew up together. She was happier than anyone else that Lu Nianfei was alive. At least An An didn't have to live under someone else's roof.

When Xie Hongxin first saw Lu Nianfei, he was stunned for a moment. This man was much more handsome than he thought, and his aura was extraordinary. He was probably at least a battalion commander in the army.

He took the initiative to extend his hand and say hello, "Hello, my name is Xie Hongxin, Danping's current husband."

Lu Nianfei stretched out his hand, shook hands with the other party openly, and shrugged.

"I think you already know my name and identity, so I won't introduce myself."

After saying that, he sat down opposite the two of them.

Huang Danping adjusted her mood, looked at her two legal husbands, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She pulled the corners of her stiff mouth and said.

"I know you're not picky about tea, so I just ordered a cup for you."

"Thank you." Lu Nianfei picked up the teacup and took a sip. Without saying any polite words, he got straight to the point. "The old leader has approved the divorce report I wrote. I can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the divorce procedures tomorrow."
