It must be said that the Jiang family's genes are actually quite outstanding in terms of appearance.
Although Jiang Yongxian deliberately dressed Qilin in tattered clothes, Qilin's little face was still very handsome.
He tilted his head and looked at He Nian, thinking about what his grandmother had told him.
At that moment, Jiang Yongxian was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
He was afraid that Qilin might say something that would arouse He Nian's suspicion.
As he grew nervous, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
He should have made his move sooner.
Make your move when the Qilin is just born; the Qilin can't speak and won't cause any trouble.
But the situation was too chaotic at the time, and he didn't have time to make arrangements.
"Mother."
After a while, Qilin looked at He Nian and called out in a clear voice.
He Nian immediately burst into laughter, his face crinkling with wrinkles.
"Hey!"
She happily agreed and reached out to hug the Qilin.
Jiang Yongxian quickly stopped her, "Niannian, don't! You haven't recovered yet, you can't carry such a heavy baby. Let me do it!"
“Yes, honey, come and hold him.” He Nian said happily, “The fairy said that the child with a brotherly bond is already on his way. We met him as soon as we left the hospital. He must be the one who can keep our child.”
Jiang Yongxian picked up Qilin, but looked at He Nian with some difficulty, "Nian Nian, this child is dressed quite cleanly. Maybe he is a lost child from some family. He is not unwanted."
Why don't we ask around the area first, and if no one wants this child, then we can take him back?
Otherwise, we won't be able to explain it to Dad.
He Nian was somewhat reluctant and muttered, "He's already calling us Dad and Mom, so he must be a child sent to us by God."
However, Jiang Yongxian insisted on finding the child's family first.
Although He Nian believed the old woman's words and wholeheartedly felt that the child was a gift from heaven, she was also afraid that if she rashly took the child back, there would be trouble.
So after she got on the bus, she allowed Jiang Yongxian to inquire around.
Finally, Jiang Yongxian went to the hospital to register his information and told the hospital staff that if anyone came looking for his child, they should give them the address.
The hospital staff were also surprised to find that the baby Jiang Yongxian had found was a boy.
Although the mindset of people in big cities like Beicheng has gradually changed in the past two years due to the country's vigorous promotion, the preference for sons over daughters is not as serious.
However, in places like hospitals, baby girls are still abandoned from time to time.
However, it is almost impossible to find anyone who abandons a boy.
Even if some boys are abandoned due to premarital pregnancy or other reasons, they will be immediately claimed by someone.
After registering the information at the hospital, they allowed Jiang Yongxian to take the child away.
"Where did you pick up this child from?" Huang Shiqi, heavily pregnant, asked in surprise as soon as He Nian and Jiang Yongxian returned to the He family home.
He Nian glared resentfully at Huang Shiqi's large pregnant belly.
When she was pregnant before, although she also found Huang Shiqi's belly an eyesore, she could still tolerate it.
Now that she has lost her own child, she finds Huang Shiqi's big belly unbearable to look at.
He gave Huang Shiqi a cold, unceremonious look. "This is my son!"
Huang Shiqi had always behaved very well at the He family's house. Upon hearing He Nian's words, she immediately said happily, "Oh my, does that mean I'm going to be a grandmother?"
"Hey, your dad's back. I need to tell him the good news."
Huang Shiqi immediately supported her waist and walked towards He Zhengguo, who had just entered the room.
After listening, He Zhengguo frowned and looked at Qilin's face.
He has held a high position for so many years after all.
The oppressive feeling in his gaze is something no child can withstand.
Under his gaze, Qilin pursed its lips in fear and instinctively hid behind Jiang Yongxian.
He Zhengguo's gaze then shifted to Jiang Yongxian's face.
Jiang Yongxian's heart jumped into his throat.
Fortunately, although Qilin is good-looking, his appearance hasn't fully developed yet. In addition, his appearance is more like Peng Cuiying's, while Qilin looks more like Jiang Jiahua, and there are also Wang Xue's genes to balance it out. Overall, he doesn't look much like him.
However, he also knew that He Zhengguo was not as easily fooled as He Nian.
He Nian quickly took He Zhengguo's arm and explained the origin of the Qilin.
She also mentioned what the fortune teller she met at the hospital had said.
The He family doesn't need this meal.
He Zhengguo said nonchalantly, "If no one comes looking for you, you can keep raising them if you want."
Upon hearing He Zhengguo's words, Jiang Yongxian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Yang Qiaoqiao is once again cooperating with the police investigation because of the explosion.
However, the main culprit in this case, Jiang Yong'an, has already been blown to pieces. He had only been in Beicheng for a short time and left few traces.
The police couldn't find any clues to prove he had accomplices, so they had to close the case.
Yang Qiaoqiao also told the police that there was something suspicious about Jiang Yong'an's reduced sentence and release at this time.
However, after investigation, the police confirmed that Jiang Yong'an's sentence reduction and release were legal and compliant.
There was nothing that could be done.
Helpless, Yang Qiaoqiao could only thank the police and leave the police station.
But the thought that the explosion had almost cost him and Huo Beixiao their lives, while the real culprit was still at large, made her feel uneasy.
She thought of what Jiang Yongchang had told her about what Jiang Yongxian had already done and what he planned to do.
She wondered if she could find a way to let the He family know about Jiang Yongxian's schemes and use the He family to deal with Jiang Yongxian.
"How's the investigation into Wang Xue's disappearance going?"
At that moment, Yang Qiaoqiao suddenly heard questions coming from the police station office.
Her heart skipped a beat. Her second brother had told her that the woman Jiang Yongxian had found outside who had given birth to his son was named Wang Xue.
Could it be...?
Yang Qiaoqiao stopped in her tracks and quickly caught several key pieces of information from the police officer's conversation.
She instantly realized that the Wang Xue the police were talking about was the woman who had given birth to Jiang Yongxian's son.
"Wang Xue's mahjong partners said she was the wife of some high-ranking official, but we have already screened all the people who fit the criteria, and there is no such person at all."
The information Wang Xue shared while playing cards with them was either driven by vanity or she was just bragging.
Or they deliberately gave them false information.
"We can't confirm her true identity, so even if we wanted to find her, we wouldn't know where to start." A helpless voice came from the office.
Yang Qiaoqiao's eyes darkened slightly.
In her previous life, she had never heard of the biological mother of the child that Jiang Yongxian and his group had adopted.
Given Jiang Yongxian's ruthlessness, he certainly wouldn't leave himself with such a significant weakness.
Therefore, Wang Xue's disappearance is very likely because Jiang Yongxian left her with her child, and she has already been murdered.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Qiaoqiao knocked on the door and went back to her office.
