Chapter 267 Nan Xia has long since returned, and she remains as aloof as ever after six years!
"No need. My mom came to S City two days ago, but she didn't bring my sister and me, so I came by myself."
"I'll call Mommy later," Zhouzhou said. "Mommy came back to help her best friend with her divorce case. She's probably staying at a hotel now."
-
In Song Yanzhi's law firm.
Jiang Yubai sat casually on his best friend's desk and said to the man next to him, "Could you squeeze in some time to take on my divorce case?"
He got married to his childhood sweetheart a year ago, but he never expected that less than half a year after the marriage, his beloved would return from abroad for medical treatment. He was just taking care of her.
That woman left the country in a huff and never contacted him again. Two weeks ago, she suddenly called him and said she wanted a divorce.
"Are you really going to divorce her? Do you love your wife more, or Qin Lu?" Song Yanzhi asked, taking a sip of coffee.
Qin Lu is also a lawyer. She worked at their law firm a long time ago. Jiang Yubai had a crush on her back then. Later, she resigned and left because she wanted to go abroad with her family.
"She wanted a divorce, so let her get a divorce. I'm not going to beg her to get back together."
Jiang Yubai crossed his arms and said in a deep voice that during the six months they had been apart, he still missed Qingya a little, but he couldn't bring himself to ask her to get back together.
When we first got married, she confessed to me that she had a crush on me since she was a child and that she liked me a lot. I couldn't believe she would really be willing to divorce me.
Song Yanzhi sensed from his words that he had some feelings for Lu Qingya, and advised him, "Don't be so impulsive. If you really get divorced, it will be difficult for you to get back together."
"Don't worry about it, just take this case," Jiang Yubai said in a deep voice.
Seeing that he insisted on going to court, Song Yanzhi stopped trying to persuade him and said, "I have too many cases this month and I can't find the time. It's just a divorce case involving property disputes. Let Lao Wang handle it for you."
"How can I feel at ease if he hits me? You have to force it even if you can't. That's the decision. By the way, she arranged to meet me in an hour. She will bring a lawyer with her."
"Pack your things and come with me." Jiang Yubai glanced at his watch and said.
In the Left Bank Café.
Song Yanzhi and his best friend arrived first. The two sat in the middle, each ordering a coffee.
After waiting for at least ten minutes, he looked at his watch with some impatience... The other party was so unpunctual!
He has other clients scheduled for appointments this afternoon.
"If they don't come soon, I'm leaving," Song Yanzhi said in a low voice, leaning back on the sofa with his long legs crossed.
"Let me make a call and ask." Jiang Yubai took out his phone and dialed Lu Qingya's number. It rang several times before she answered. He asked, "Don't you have any sense of time?"
Lu Qingya, who was accompanying her best friend to pick up her son, slapped her forehead. Oh no, she forgot to call that man.
"My lawyer has something to do today and can't come. Let's meet again tomorrow?"
"You say when, but I'm not busy?" he asked, secretly annoyed.
"Then let's not meet. We'll see each other in court!" Lu Qingya said and hung up the phone. She had originally wanted to discuss a divorce with him without going to court, but since his attitude was so bad, she decided not to discuss it anymore.
Jiang Yubai frowned as he looked at the disconnected phone. This woman used to be so gentle and kind to him, but now her temper was getting worse and worse.
Inside the car, a beautiful woman with slightly wavy long hair, dressed in a black business suit, was driving while talking on the phone using a Bluetooth headset. Every move she made exuded confidence and charm.
She is Nan Xia, who disappeared six years ago!
Six years later, she remains stunningly beautiful.
"You brat, you've really gotten bold, sneaking here with your sister like this. Aren't you afraid of running into bad guys?!" Nanxia asked angrily, her voice filled with worry. Qiaoqiao had been kidnapped when she was four years old, leaving her with psychological trauma.
That's why they hired several bodyguards to follow them every day.
"Mommy, I have bodyguards with me, nothing will happen. You don't need to be so cautious. I just brought my little sister out to see the world. Maybe it will help cure her autism."
Besides, why didn't you bring both of us along? I've never even been to China before.
Zhouzhou just arrived at Xiaoyan's house. This afternoon, Xiaoyan took him and his sister to the food street and they ate a lot of Chinese food. He instantly fell in love with the city; the food here is so delicious.
What kind of miserable life did I live before?!
He couldn't even imagine how happy he would be living in China, with so many delicious foods every day.
We must convince Mom to settle here. It's so vibrant and lively here, with endless delicious food. We don't want to go abroad anymore.
"You always have so many excuses. Hurry up and send me the address, I'll come pick you up," Nan Xia called to him in a deep voice.
“I’m at a friend’s house and I want to play with him a little longer. Mommy, tell me the hotel, and I’ll take my little sister there,” Zhouzhou said, showing her strong sense of self.
Nanxia's eyes widened upon hearing her son's words, and she became even more worried. He was at a friend's house? When did he meet any friends in this city?
Could I have been lured and trafficked?
"Stop talking nonsense and send me the address now."
“…Tomson Riviera, then come over here.” Zhouzhou told her mother helplessly.
"You better protect your sister, or else I'll spank you!" Nan Xia said in a deep voice before hanging up the phone. She then entered her destination into the car's navigation system and drove towards the residential area.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lu Qingya comforted him, "Zhouzhou has bodyguards with her, don't worry too much..."
“There are so many tricks up their sleeves these days, how could bodyguards be as cunning as them?” Nan Xia said, stepping on the gas again. This kid, really, how dare he run into a stranger’s house?
Those bodyguards are useless too. Why did they send him to someone else's house?
After Zhouzhou hung up the phone, Xiaoyan personally took out a lot of fruit from the refrigerator, washed it, placed it on the coffee table, and handed the largest cherry to Qiaoqiao:
"Qiaoqiao, try it, it's very sweet."
Qiaoqiao didn't speak or respond. A little afraid of him, she immediately hid behind her brother, only revealing her big, bright eyes as she looked at him.
"Qiaoqiao, don't be afraid. Xiaoyan is not a bad person. Look, he's about the same age as us."
Zhouzhou took the fruit and handed it to his younger sister, Qiaoqiao. She took a small bite, blinked her bright eyes, hid behind her brother's shoulder, and took another small bite.
"Does Qiaoqiao never speak?" Xiaoyan asked sympathetically.
"I only say a few words occasionally," Zhouzhou said helplessly.
"By the way, is your daddy in this city too?" Xiaoyan sat down next to him, placed the fruit plate on his lap, picked up a fruit and handed it to her friend, then asked curiously.
"I don't have a daddy, but I do have a godfather. He's really good to me and my sister," Zhouzhou said nonchalantly while eating fruit.
Xiao Yan was surprised. He didn't have a dad either? The two of them looked so alike.
"So your biological father doesn't want you anymore?"
