Chapter 481 How do you know he is not a good man?
Ilia stood up suddenly and looked at Yan Huai in disbelief.
"If you still consider me your brother, then listen to me and go back to Philadelphia tomorrow!" Yan Huai sat upright on the sofa and looked up at her.
"I'm not going back!" Ilia snorted angrily and sat back in the corner of the sofa. "If you want to go back, go back by yourself!"
"Fu Zheng is not a good man. Even if you have a child, he will not be with you."
Fu Zheng had previously been involved in a cheating scandal, and now he has a complicated ex-wife. Any parent who loves their daughter would not choose him.
"How do you know he's not your good man? How do you know he won't be with me? We had lunch together today!"
Seeing that Ilia was stubborn and unrepentant, Yan Huai felt very disappointed. He sneered and said, "You guys are not eating alone, Fu Shifan is beside you, right?"
Why would Fu Zheng have dinner alone with Ilia at this critical moment? Unless he really wanted to break up with Wen Liang.
"...Yes, she's our child," Ilia stammered, racking her brains, realizing she was right. "The fact that we're a family of three having dinner together, doesn't that just illustrate his attitude?"
Yan Huai looked at Ilia and remained silent for a few seconds.
Is she really his sister with the same father and mother?
How can you be so stupid?
The act of eating together is widely present in all kinds of relationships among people, such as friends, colleagues, classmates, customers, etc. Even strangers can get together to eat.
Therefore, eating is the least important thing in a relationship.
Ilia used the fact that they had dinner together to prove Fu Zheng's attitude, which indicated two things. First, Fu Zheng had never eaten with her before, and second, there was not the slightest ambiguity between her and Fu Zheng. Even if there was an ambiguous look, she would not bring up the dinner together.
This time Fu Zheng would have dinner with her and the child, probably because she was the child's mother.
Seeing Yan Huai's questioning eyes, Ilia couldn't help but want to persuade him, "Don't disbelieve it, he said today that he will not remarry Fei! Brother, he will not remarry Fei!"
Ilia had already forgotten what she had promised Alice and only wanted to stabilize Yan Huai first, so she emphasized it again.
She thought Yan Huai would be very happy to hear the news.
But Yan Huai raised his eyelids, his expression unchanged, "So what? Not remarrying doesn't mean we won't be together anymore. Don't be so stubborn!"
What does it have to do with him whether Fu Zheng and Wen Liang remarry or not?
Ilia's face froze.
Does he like Fei to this extent?
Would you rather withdraw and watch Fei be with Fu Zheng?
"Brother, shouldn't you be happy that they are not remarrying?" she asked tentatively.
"I really hope they can remarry, so you don't have to hold on to unrealistic fantasies."
“…”
Yan Huai stood up and looked down at Ilia. "If you like that child, I will find a way to help you get custody of the child and bring him back to Philadelphia. As for the rest, there's no need to say more."
"Brother—I'm not going back anyway!"
The brother and sister parted ways unhappily.
"What did Caesar tell you?"
In Ilia's room, Alice saw her sitting on the bed in boredom, and walked over to her with concern.
"He knew about Fu Shifan, but he firmly disagreed with me being with Fu Zheng and asked me to return to Philadelphia tomorrow."
"Why?"
"Who knows?" Ilia rolled her eyes and complained, "Maybe he's Fei's bootlicker, willing to lick until he's left with nothing, just to help Fei."
Alice lowered her eyes. "She is indeed a hidden danger, but now is not the time to deal with her. What are you going to do now?"
"Anyway, I'm not going back."
"What if he tells your parents and they ask you to go back?"
Ilia moved her lips, without any clear plan in mind, and said stubbornly, "Anyway, I will never go back."
"How about this, you should tell your uncle about it first. Tell him that you finally reunited with the child and want to stay here for a while. The child has been with Fu Zheng for a long time and is not familiar with you yet. You can't bring him back to Philadelphia rashly. Ask your uncle to help you persuade Caesar."
"My brother won't believe it."
"Whether he believes it or not is one thing, as long as your uncle can persuade him."
"Okay, I'll try." Ilia said after thinking for a while.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Fu Zheng, who was working in the study, received a call from Xie Zhen.
"Hello, Mr. Xie?"
"Xiao Fu, it's me."
A familiar voice sounded, its tone steady, "I already know about you and Ilia."
Fu Zheng paused, then said, "Mr. Xie, I'm very sorry about Miss Ilia."
He must feel guilty towards Ilia.
Back then, when he was in a state of confusion, he forced Ilia who had walked into the wrong room. Fu Qingyue was afraid that if Ilia called the police, he would go to jail, so he took advantage of Ilia's young age and tricked her into giving up calling the police and giving birth to the child.
If they had not met in Sydney and Philadelphia before Ilia recognized Fanfan, he would definitely try his best to meet her conditions, except being with her.
However, he had met Ilia when he was in Philadelphia, and knew that she was involved with Fu Qingyue and that her purpose in recognizing Fu Shifan was to break up him and Wen Liang, so it was difficult for him to feel guilty towards her.
But in front of Xie Zhen, I always have to pretend.
"It's already happened, there's no need to talk about it. I heard that little girl Fanfan is very cute. If you have time tomorrow, bring her to see me."
"……good."
After hanging up the phone, Fu Zheng slowly put the phone on the table, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Xie Zhen knew that this matter had both good and bad sides.
The good thing is that he will never help Ilia achieve her goal and may even stop her.
Wen Liang once found Xie Zhen for him. Xie Zhen knew that although they had not remarried, their feelings remained the same. Naturally, he did not want his niece to marry a man who was entangled with his ex-wife.
The downside is that if Ilia asks, Xie Zhen might take away Fu Shifan's custody for her.
However, having an uncle like Xie Zhen is more beneficial than harmful to Fanfan himself, and Fu Zheng will never stop him from seeing Fanfan.
While having breakfast on Sunday, Fu Shifan heard Fu Zheng say that he would take her to meet her great uncle.
Fu Shifan raised his head, frowned, and asked curiously, "What is an uncle?"
"He's your biological mother's uncle."
"Is he important?" the little girl asked, tilting her head.
This issue concerns her attitude towards her adoptive uncle.
"It's important. He's the leader of our city and holds great power. If he wants to take away your custody, he can just go to the court and make it happen."
"Ah?" the little girl opened her mouth wide, "So powerful?"
"Yeah." Fu Zheng nodded. "But you don't have to worry. He's not an unreasonable person. Just behave normally."
"Yeah." Fu Shifan nodded.
At 10:30 in the morning, the car stopped in front of Xie Zhen's house.
Fu Zheng got out of the car, opened the back door, and pulled out a little girl in a sparkling dress.
Her eyes are big, black, with long eyelashes that flicker when she blinks. Her nose is small and straight, her lips are plump, and her skin is as white and smooth as milk. Standing there, she looks like a big BJD doll, so cute.
"Is this Fanfan? He's so handsome!"
