Chapter 17 Self-blaming parents



But it is simply unrealistic to prevent them from meeting. As long as Ying Huanyu is still in her house, it is impossible for her not to meet Zhan Nanqi.

Unless she doesn't meet Zhan Nanqi either.

But Xue Jiayu didn't want to do that.

So the matter was put aside for the time being. After all, things would work out when the time comes, so Ying Huanyu's matter could be dealt with later.

Zhan Nanqi sat on the sofa at Xue's house with a cold face. Although Jiang Qiuyu and Xu Suzhen brought him a bunch of delicious and fun things, he was not interested.

He has all these snacks at home, but he is too lazy to even eat them.

Compared to these things, he cared more about the little baby beside him, pinching the corner of his clothes.

Xue Jiayu tried hard to raise her head to look at him, but because she couldn't crawl yet, it was too tiring to force her head up, and she had to lower her head and gasp for breath after a while.

[Phew, I'm so tired! Handsome boy, can't you just give me a hug?]

Zhan Nanqi had a blank expression on his face and still looked indifferent. Although he heard her thoughts clearly, he had no intention of doing so.

However, the next second, Xue Jiayu almost fell off the sofa because she raised her head too hard. Fortunately, Zhan Nanqi was quick to pull her into his arms, thus preventing her head from bursting.

[Oh my god! I'm so scared, woooooo... I want to throw myself into the arms of this handsome boy and calm down.]

Xue Jiayu actually rubbed her chubby little face against Zhan Nanqi's chest.

Jiang Qiuyi, who rushed out from the kitchen after hearing the noise, couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead when she saw her daughter's condition.

Xiaobao, be reserved!

"Nanqi, is Jiayu's presence bothering you? Why don't you just carry her on your back?"

Jiang Qiuyi was about to go find the bandages when she heard Xue Jiayu's heart-wrenching refusal.

[No——I want to stay with the little handsome boy! Mom, please don’t ruin my plan! ]

Jiang Qiuyu shook her head helplessly in her heart, Xiaobao, Xiaobao, you are really making things difficult for me.

But no matter how difficult it was, as a mother she couldn't let her little baby be unhappy.

So Jiang Qiuyi slapped her head and said, "Oh, right, our bandage is broken. Xiao Zhan, please help auntie hold my sister for a while. Auntie is cooking inside."

"Um."

Seeing Zhan Nanqi nod, Jiang Qiuyu returned to the kitchen, but actually hid behind the door and peeked.

Not only Jiang Qiuyu heard Xue Jiayu's thoughts, Zhan Nanqi also heard them clearly. He did not shake off Xue Jiayu because he wanted to see what other tricks this little guy could use.

But before Xue Jiayu could come up with another trick, Zhan Nanqi's parents came.

After they finished dealing with Aunt Jiang, they left to pick up their son, holding Jiang Qiuyu's hand and thanking her profusely.

"If it weren't for you, my husband and I would still be kept in the dark, thinking that Aunt Jiang treated Nanqi very well." Jiang Peirong blamed herself so much. When she thought about how her son had suffered so much injustice in secret, she wanted to pull Aunt Jiang out and give her a beating.

Xue Jiayu looked at Jiang Peirong, whose eyes were red, and clenched her small fists.

[Aunt Jiang has done a lot of bad things, don't let her go]

[This is not the first time something like this has happened. If we ask the police to search the house, we can find evidence.]

After hearing this, Jiang Qiuyi blurted out: "This is not the first time that Aunt Jiang has done this. There is a lot of evidence in the utility room and Zhan Nanqi's room. We can find it if we search."

"ah?"

Jiang Peirong and Zhan Aoxiang were both stunned. "Mrs. Xue, how do you know so much about our family?"

Jiang Qiuyu secretly sighed, it was not good, no matter how she explained it, they would not believe it.

[Stupid mommy, why don't you just say that you heard Aunt Jiang and her group of nannies bragging while buying groceries! ]

Eh?! Xiaobao, this trick works!

Jiang Qiuyu immediately repeated Xue Jiayu's words verbatim, adding a kind smile, which made Jiang Peirong believe it.

"So that's how it is. Aunt Jiang is really too much! I've made up my mind. I'm going to make her go to jail."

Jiang Peirong was filled with righteous indignation and stroked her son's smiling face with heartache.

Zhan Nanqi didn't push her hand away, but he didn't react either. He just said calmly, "Go home."

"Okay, okay, go home."

Jiang Peirong hurriedly tried to hold her son's hand, but he avoided her calmly.

The little figure walked out of Xue's house on his own. Jiang Peirong gave Jiang Qiuyi a bitter smile and said, "Then we'll leave first. We'll talk to you another day."

"Okay, okay, call me anytime if you have any questions."

Jiang Qiuyu stood at the door holding Xue Jiayu and watched them go. When she looked down, she found that her daughter had a pouty face.

[Handsome boy—you have such a cruel heart, you didn’t even look back at me. ]

Jiang Qiuyu is now beginning to worry that Xiaobao will be a love-brained person when she grows up. Should she buy her a love-brain insurance policy now?

After Zhan Aoxiang and his wife brought Zhan Nanqi home, they first apologized to him. Seeing that he was indifferent, they discussed the follow-up issues.

"Anyway, we can't hire a nanny anymore. I'm no longer comfortable leaving Nan Qi to be taken care of by someone who isn't related to me by blood. I'm going to take care of him myself from now on!"

Jiang Peirong held Zhan Nanqi in her arms, as if to say, "No one can separate us mother and son."

Zhan Aoxiang thought so too, but the elders of their two families were either traveling or had passed away long ago, and there was no one to help them take care of Zhan Nanqi.

In desperation, they could only put aside some of their work and take turns staying at home to accompany their children.

But even so, there are times when I am unable to cope with both tasks, like today.

Zhan Aoxiang and Jiang Peirong got up at the same time and looked at each other uncomfortably.

"I'm going out today! You stay at home to look after the kids!" they both said in unison.

Jiang Peirong opened the closet to look for clothes without saying anything, "I have to go sign a contract today, you stay at home with Nan Qi."

"No, a customer is flying in from abroad today to look at samples, and I have to receive him in person."

Zhan Aoxiang was tying his tie in front of the mirror. The two of them got ready at the same time, but they had not decided who would stay with their son before leaving.

Jiang Peirong and Zhan Aoxiang confronted each other in the living room for five minutes, secretly competing with each other.

Finally, Jiang Peirong came up with a solution. "How about we leave Nan Qi at Xue's house temporarily? I think he was doing well at Xue's house last time."

"The Xue family..." Zhan Aoxiang touched his chin, "After a few contacts, I can be sure that Mr. and Mrs. Xue are very nice people. Something like what happened to Aunt Jiang shouldn't happen to them."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Have you forgotten that it was Aunt Jiang who reminded us?" Jiang Peirong was furious. "It's settled. We'll send Nan Qi to Xue's house first and then go to the company."

Zhan Nanqi had gotten up a long time ago and was reading a book about the collapse of the universe. Zhan Aoxiang coaxed him and said, "Mom and Dad are busy today. Why don't you stay at Uncle Xue's house for a day? We will pick you up as soon as possible."

The child didn't say anything, but Zhan Aoxiang knew that since his son didn't refuse, he probably agreed.

He sighed inwardly, wondering when his son could be cured of autism.

The reason they dared to send Zhan Nanqi to the Xue family was because they saw in the good character of Xue Wangjun and his wife, and they would definitely not discriminate against Zhan Nanqi because of his autism.
