She sighed and said earnestly, "Never mind, with your small frame, earning this much money isn't easy."
She then glanced at Wen Zhan from head to toe, and waved her hand magnanimously: "Once you get me home safely, our old score will be wiped clean."
The more Wen Zhan listened to her, the more confused he became, and the more strange his gaze became.
It felt like being looked at like that by her made me feel uncomfortable all over.
What are you saying? I don't understand.
Duan Sisi did not answer him, feeling very gratified by her own understanding.
"Sigh, I understand. Every profession has its hardships. Your line of work is not easy either."
Even after Wen Zhan safely delivered her to her doorstep, he still didn't understand what this "profession" Duan Sisi was talking about was.
"Since you won't accept the money, we'll repay you next time if fate allows."
Duan Sisi had just gotten out of the car when she heard this and immediately stopped. She leaned against the car door seductively, looking down at Wen Zhan in the driver's seat with a smile.
"Do you mean I want to see you again?"
Seeing Wen Zhan's visibly stunned expression, Duan Sisi closed the car door triumphantly and left with a smile.
By the time Wen Zhan realized what was happening, all he could see was her waving without turning her head.
He sat there for a while, then suddenly chuckled, "Aunties these days are too confident."
After Wen Zhan turned around and drove away from Duan Sisi's residential area, a figure emerged from the corner of the building entrance.
When the figure stepped into the light, his face was finally clearly visible; it was Qiao Chen.
Qiao Chen glanced at Wen Zhan's taillights, then turned her head to look at Duan Sisi's window upstairs, her expression becoming ambiguous.
Yi An's car slowly drove into the underground parking garage. After it came to a stop, the two of them got out of the car and walked into the elevator side by side.
Yi An coughed lightly and spoke first: "Don't misunderstand, I didn't want to come, but I heard you were having some trouble, so I came."
He glanced at Su Yan again and added, "I'm only doing this because of the contract, you understand."
Su Yan smiled slightly upon hearing his obvious attempt to conceal something, but quickly regained her expressionless demeanor.
"I understand, you don't need to explain it like that, I won't misunderstand."
You don't know anything!
Yi An cursed inwardly, but on the surface he insisted on putting on a happy expression. He had to bear the consequences of his own actions.
The two of them got out of the elevator and went to Yi An's house first, where Su Xiaoyu and Yi Kangle were waiting for them to return.
As soon as the door opened, the two children who were playing house rushed over excitedly and hugged Su Yan's leg.
"Mom, you're finally back! I was so sleepy," Yi Kangle said, tilting her head back and acting coquettishly.
Su Yan's heart almost melted. She knelt down and lovingly hugged him into her arms.
"My little darling, Mommy will take you home now and tell you a story to put you to bed, okay?"
Yi An watched this with a pang of jealousy, wondering when he would ever receive such treatment.
Seeing that Su Yan was about to lead Su Xiaoyu and Yi Kangle away, he quickly said, "Let me help you take them back. It's not easy for you to manage them alone."
Su Yan glanced at her home, which was just a stone's throw away, and said nothing.
Yi An excitedly picked up Su Xiaoyu and said, "Xiaoyu, let's go home."
After the four of them entered the house, Su Yan told Su Xiaoyu and Yi Kangle to go wash up, leaving Yi An behind.
He looked left and right, but couldn't find a reasonable reason to stay there any longer.
"I'm leaving!"
Yi An tentatively called out to Su Yan.
Su Yan busied herself taking off Yi Kangle's coat, replying without turning her head, "You can go now."
He spoke without the slightest hesitation.
Yi An's heart sank, and she raised her voice again: "I'm really leaving!"
This time, Su Yan didn't even reply. Yi An got anxious and tried a different approach.
"Xiaoyu, Xiaobao, Daddy's really leaving! We'll only see him again tomorrow! Daddy's gone?"
As he walked, he kept glancing back at Su Xiaoyu.
When Su Xiaoyu met his gaze, she sighed heavily and walked over hesitantly.
As soon as Yi An saw her coming over, she immediately stretched out her leg in cooperation. Su Xiaoyu grabbed it and sat down on the ground, looking like she was being a spoiled brat.
"Daddy, don't go."
However, the words he said were very perfunctory.
Can we make this act any more fake?
Yi An could only turn her expectant gaze to Yi Kangle.
Yi Kangle was stunned for a moment, then ran over in small steps, imitating Su Xiaoyu, hugged Yi An's other leg, and squatted down on the ground.
He didn't know if he sat down too quickly or what, but his bottom hurt terribly. He pouted, looking aggrieved, and touched his bottom, his eyes suddenly blurring with tears.
"Dad, don't go."
That almost-crying look shows how dedicated he is.
Yi Anxin was satisfied with achieving his goal. He raised his head with a helpless expression and looked at Su Yan, as if to say, "I'm helpless too."
Su Yan didn't know whether she should be angry or laugh.
"Stay."
The three words she casually uttered instantly set off a firecracker in Yi An's heart, but he still pretended to be reluctant on the surface.
"Don't misunderstand, I really don't want to stay, it's all for the sake of the child."
Before he could finish speaking, a blanket was thrown at him, hitting him squarely in the cheek.
Even though he was being hit, Yi An almost burst out laughing. He lay on the sofa, hugging his blanket, watching Su Yan lead the two children around in front of him with a happy expression.
This feeling of happiness didn't last long before the lights went out.
Yi'an lay on the sofa, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
"This sofa is way too hard!" he couldn't help but complain.
But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from Su Yan's room.
Yi An was stunned for a second, then kicked all the blankets under the sofa with a whirlwind kick.
The blanket had just hit the ground when Su Yan's room door opened.
Su Yan came out to use the restroom and immediately saw Yi An curled up on the sofa.
In order to attract her over, Yi'an even shivered a few times in his "dream".
Su Yan sighed, walked over helplessly, picked up the quilt, gently draped it over him, and carefully tucked the corners of the quilt in for him.
Having done all this, she got up to leave, but her hand was grabbed by Yi'an, who was "sleeping".
Accompanying this was a heart-wrenching cry: "Don't go!"
Su Yan seemed startled by the sound and didn't react for a long time.
Yi An's rambling didn't stop there; instead, she continued to chatter on: "Su Yan, what do you take me for? A plaything to be summoned and dismissed at will? I have feelings too! If you really don't cherish me, then just leave!"
