"Su Xiaoyu?!"
Lin Hui raised her voice again, this time her sinister gaze was directed at Yi An.
Yi Kangle didn't know what he had said wrong, and shrank back there tremblingly, "Mom, there's no Xiaoyu, Mom."
"Shut up! Adults are talking, kids shouldn't interrupt! Eat your food!"
Lin Hui turned her head and shouted angrily, which made Yi Kangle's eyes immediately fill with tears. He dared not speak again and just kept picking at the rice in his bowl.
This scene unfolded vividly before Yi An's eyes, causing his pupils to constrict with heartache. Looking at Yi Kangle's seemingly indifferent expression, his heart turned completely cold.
The sound of voices also grew cold.
"Lin Hui, can't you talk things out calmly and ask questions properly? Why are you taking your anger out on a child? Look how scared you've made Xiao Bao. Is this how you act as a mother?"
"You still know I'm Xiaobao's mother, but that Su Yan isn't!"
After Lin Hui finished her rant, she glanced at Meng Jie and noticed she was still sitting there. She immediately put on a pitiful expression.
"Aunt Meng, please say something for me. That Su Yan has already caused him so much harm, yet he still wants to stay with that woman and take Xiao Bao with him. Tell me, how can I not be angry?"
Meng Jie ate as if nothing had happened, ignoring her words, until her phone rang, at which point she stopped and glanced at it.
Seeing the names flashing on her phone screen, Meng Jie elegantly picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth, casually saying, "You guys keep arguing, don't worry about me," before walking straight outside.
Lin Hui could hardly believe her ears and could only continue to vent her anger on Yi An.
Meng Jie glanced back at Lin Hui, who was arguing agitatedly inside the room, swiped the screen, and answered the phone.
"Hey, have the paternity test results come back yet?"
"It's out. I'm on my way to deliver it to you. It should take about ten minutes."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Meng Jie said a few words briefly and then hung up the phone.
As she walked back to the restaurant, she overheard Lin Hui questioning Yi An: "Then tell me! Did you go to meet Su Yan? Tell me!"
Seeing the impatience flash in Yi An's eyes, Meng Jie slowly curled the corners of her mouth and interjected, "The report for that order you told me about last time has arrived today. The specific commercial value and results have been assessed and are clear at a glance."
Lin Hui had been listening to her all this time, and not only had she not spoken up for her, she kept interrupting to talk about other things, acting as if it were none of her business.
Lin Hui felt incredibly wronged. "Fine, I see through you, Yi An. You don't care about me, Xiao Bao, or this family at all. Fine, I'll take Xiao Bao and leave, making room for you and that bitch!"
After she finished speaking, she picked up Yi Kangle, who was eating next to her, and stormed out.
Upon seeing this, Yi'an immediately rushed over and grabbed her arm.
“Why can’t we talk things out properly? Why do we have to make such a scene and scare the child?”
Lin Hui raised her head. "Fine, you choose. Do you want our family or to be with that shameless woman, Su Yan? I advise you to think it over carefully. If you choose her, then never see Xiao Bao again!"
Her threat made Meng Jie laugh out loud.
Meng Jie walked up to Lin Hui and said with a half-smile, "My grandson isn't someone anyone can just take away. Do you think you have that ability?"
Having learned from her previous experience, Lin Hui felt confident.
“Aunt Meng, you don’t need to try to scare me with your words. I am Xiaobao’s mother. If I don’t have that ability, who does? The law has already stipulated it. Do you think you, Aunt Meng, can manipulate the law at will?”
When Meng Jie heard her put such a huge label on herself, she smiled calmly.
"Of course I don't have that ability, but whether you are Xiaobao's mother or not seems to be uncertain."
Lin Hui was immediately provoked by these words, her voice rising eight octaves: "Aunt Meng, what do you mean by that?! If I'm not Xiaobao's mother, then who is! I've raised Xiaobao with so much care and hardship, and you want to take the child away, so you just say I'm not Xiaobao's mother. How can you be so heartless!"
Her repeated accusations did not deter Meng Jie in the slightest.
Meng Jie glanced casually at the direction behind her, and when she saw the person being welcomed in, the corners of her mouth curved up.
"Oh, you're here. You came quite quickly. Did you bring the report?"
Lin Hui turned her head in confusion and saw the person respectfully handing a file folder to Meng Jie.
She had a bad feeling and wanted to run away with Xiao Bao immediately, but Yi An noticed her and stopped her with a sidestep.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't given you the explanation you want yet. Don't you want to hear it?"
Lin Hui glanced at him, then at Meng Jie, whose smile deepened as she finished reading the report, and her heart pounded like a deer's.
"I don't want to explain anymore. I want to go home. I want to take Xiaobao home. Get out of my way!" she shouted urgently.
Meng Jie said slowly and deliberately, "You can leave, but you probably can't take Xiao Bao with you."
She walked gracefully to Lin Hui and slapped the paternity test report against her chest.
"Can you read? Look carefully before you talk to me."
The moment Lin Hui saw the result, her trembling eyes quickly glanced to the side, and as if refusing to admit the truth, she grabbed Yi Kangle and rushed out.
"It's fake! It's all fake! You won't take my child away! Not in this lifetime!"
Meng Jie showed no sign of panic, coldly watching her make a scene, and seeing the bodyguards rushing in from outside blocking her way.
Meng Jie simply said at the right moment, "Don't hurt the child."
Yi Kangle was snatched from Lin Hui's hands, his face turning deathly pale with fright. He clung tightly to Yi An's neck, refusing to let go.
"Dad, what did Mom do wrong? Why is Grandma bullying her like this?"
Hearing his trembling voice filled with fear, Yi'an felt heartbroken and kept comforting him, "No, Grandma isn't bullying her. Don't be afraid, Xiaobao, Daddy's here. Daddy will protect you."
Meng Jie glanced casually in Yi An's direction and ordered, "Take the child upstairs, I'll handle the rest."
After Yi An carried Yi Kangle upstairs, Lin Hui was also restrained in a dining chair.
She looked at Meng Jie, who was still elegantly sipping her post-meal black tea, and was terrified.
She had heard rumors about Meng Jie before, but this was the first time she had truly experienced it.
This is simply not a normal woman!
"What are you doing! I'm calling the police! I'm going to arrest you! You've taken my child away, and you're restricting my freedom!"
