Ch. 56..60: Mr CEO Ex-wife Escapes Again Chapter 56-60
Chapter 56 Mommy, when will you remarry daddy? The kindergarten ultimately did call the principal over.
However, upon her arrival, she still did not take Yin Hehe seriously.
“Miss Han, today’s incident was truly just an accident. We’ve always taken good care of Sheng Xi, and if you don’t believe it, you can ask his mother,” she said.
She even brought up Lin Shuang.
Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe simply scoffed, “Why should I ask her? It was Mr. Sheng who sent for me. If anyone should ask, it should be he who asks his own wife.”
“…”
That single sentence finally drained all color from the principal’s face.
She undoubtedly knew Sheng Siyuan.
After all, the kindergarten was under Shengshi Group, and how could she, as the principal, be unaware of her own boss?
However, why did she tolerate such mistreatment of Sheng Xi by the teachers when she knew full well he was the little master of Shengshi?
Yin Hehe was somewhat puzzled.
“Miss Han, that wasn’t what I meant. What I meant is… we were a bit strict with Sheng Xi because he can be quite naughty, which his mother emphasized to us,” she explained.
“Does that include abusing him?”
Yin Hehe immediately asked sharply in response.
The principal immediately sweated profusely, swallowing hard before she could continue after a long while, “I apologize, the teachers indeed went too far today. Please calm down and let’s discuss how we should handle this situation. Should we fire those two teachers?”
She finally said it.
But upon hearing this, Yin Hehe was not pleased at all.
Because she knew that if a Teacher Zhang left today, another one would appear tomorrow.
As long as the root of the problem was not resolved, the children here would never be safe.
“I think your best course of action is to tell Mr. Sheng the truth and let him make the decision, otherwise, I am ready to turn this evidence over to the police at any time!”
She lifted the recording in her hand as she spoke her final words.
The principal’s eyes turned a shade of gray despair, and even as Yin Hehe left the office, she did not recover.
Telling Sheng Siyuan would essentially mean exposing Lin Shuang as well.
So, when Lin Shuang came into trouble, the kindergarten would not see good days ahead, especially the principal.
—
Yin Hehe went to check on the child once more.
By that time, he had returned to the classroom and was sitting silently on a small stool, with the company of the young girl.
“Auntie, thank you. He’s finally been rescued,” the girl said.
“It’s okay,” Yin Hehe replied.
Seeing the little guy unwilling to even lift his head and look at her, she prepared to leave, feeling somewhat disheartened.
When it came to this child, she actually felt quite powerless.
He wasn’t her child, and she simply couldn’t interfere too much.
So, all she could do now was to find a way to let that despicable man know just how terrible and unfit to be a mother the woman beside him was.
That way, at least his father would figure out a better living environment for him.
Yin Hehe left the classroom.
Just as she was about to leave the kindergarten, she walked a bit then suddenly realized someone was following her.
“Xi Bao?”
She turned around, and upon spotting the little guy a short distance away, she was extremely surprised.
But as soon as the little one saw that she’d noticed him, he clenched his small fists tightly, then suddenly turned to run.
“Xi Bao? Where are you going? Don’t fall over,” she called out.
Yin Hehe, unaware of the youngster’s thoughts, saw him running swiftly and immediately chased after him.
Fortunately, he was still a child, and she soon caught up with him.
“Xi Bao, why have you come out? Have you forgiven Auntie?” she asked excitedly, squatting in front of the child.
As she hugged him, she noticed his tiny body was very stiff.
The little guy didn’t answer; he just awkwardly looked away.
That awkward and cool little face really was a chip off the old block.
Yin Hehe smiled…
“Xi Bao, Auntie is so happy, you finally are willing to talk to Auntie. So, since you’re off from school anyway, how about Auntie picks you up from school? Is that okay? But… can you please let your family know?”
She felt a powerful urge to take this child out to have a good time, to make up for her shortcomings.
However, as soon as her words fell, the little guy’s pretty little ink pupils suddenly lit up.
After a moment, he dialed through the watch on his small wrist.
“Young Master, I am coming to pick you up right away.”
The voice, clear and precise, belonged to Shengfei Bay’s bodyguard.
When the little guy heard this, he coolly replied, “No need, later!”
He was really cool!
Yin Hehe immediately took him away from kindergarten, and the two went towards the busiest part of the downtown area.
If anyone knew how to take care of children, it was definitely Yin Hehe. With two children of her own, she was hands-on with everything from food to play, naturally understanding what children liked and what they needed.
“Baby, we’ll eat something first, then Auntie will take you to play, okay?”
“Mmm.”
The little guy looked at the bustling central square, tightly holding his aunt’s hand, and nodded firmly.
Yin Hehe then took him inside.
Soon, the two were seated in an authentic dumpling house.
“Hmm, Auntie will order you some pumpkin dumplings. Your brother Cen Bao really likes these, and corn juice too—it’s very tasty.”
Yin Hehe went ahead and ordered for the little guy.
The little guy just sat there obediently, showing no signs of refusal or dislike throughout.
However, when the dumplings were served, Yin Hehe sitting beside him noticed that he did indeed like the pumpkin pan-fried dumplings.
But he picked out the sesame seeds from the dumplings.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Her hand holding the chopsticks paused, and her eyes stared at the sesame seeds that were picked out, frozen for a few seconds.
Cen Bao and Youyou also didn’t like sesame seeds.
“Buzz… Buzz…”
Just then, someone called her, drawing her back to reality. She picked up her phone.
“Miss Han, regarding the state banquet, I heard from Jinse that you don’t want to get involved?”
It turned out to be her brother, Yin Beixiao, calling.
Yin Hehe hurriedly explained, “No, Mr. Yin, I just think that the banquet is too important, and I’m not suitable to participate.”
“What’s suitable or not? This business deal was secured because of you in the first place. Isn’t it normal for you to work on it with Jinse?”
“But…”
“Alright, you help Jinse properly starting tomorrow. Right now, many people are watching her at Baiqing Building. If anything goes wrong, you can only imagine the consequences.”
Yin Beixiao finally cautioned her.
Seeing no other option, Yin Hehe had to agree, “Okay, I understand, Mr. Yin.”
When she used that title, her tone naturally softened since he was her brother.
However, as soon as she hung up, she saw the little guy next to her, who was just eating, his cool little face had turned gloomy again.
“What’s wrong? Doesn’t it taste good?”
Yin Hehe asked worriedly.
But the little guy didn’t respond; he put down the small spoon he was holding and sat there with a dark expression, looking as if he had been frost-stricken.
Yin Hehe: “…”
What was going on? Wasn’t he quite happy just now?
Yin Hehe didn’t know that the little guy’s sudden discontent was entirely because she had sounded too tender on the phone.
Wasn’t she Daddy’s ex-wife?
Then why couldn’t she be like that when together with Daddy? When they were at Shengfei Bay, they were either arguing or cold towards each other.
Although his brother had said that Auntie had become like this to treat his illness and came into their lives this way, for some reason, he wished Daddy and this auntie could get back together.
Rather than with his actual mother!
The little guy was extremely vexed.
Chapter 57 President, Your Son Has Gone Missing Downtown, Shengshi Building.
After nightfall, the bustling metropolis was everywhere aglow with neon lights, the streets were constantly flowing like beautiful ribbons of light, adding a thicker sense of liveliness to the city.
Except for this skyscraper.
Shengshi Group’s work hours followed an 8-hour system, so after seven o’clock, there were seldom any lights seen inside the building.
But that night, the top floor remained brightly lit.
“President, aren’t you going home? It’s already so late, and your body hasn’t fully recovered,”
Secretary Chen Xiaosen had reached the top floor of the building and saw that at this hour, the person inside was still busy.
He couldn’t help but be somewhat concerned.
However, the man listened but didn’t even lift an eyelid, seated at his spacious desk, his upright figure meticulous under the light, and in the quiet light, all that could be heard was the sound of his slender fingers tapping on the laptop.
Chen Xiaosen, seeing this, didn’t know what else to say.
“What did He Li call me for today?” Suddenly, the man asked from behind.
Chen Xiaosen stopped again.
“Are you talking about Mayor He? He wants to invite you to attend the election event being held in the city. I heard that many high-ranking leaders from the Provincial City will be coming,”
He hurriedly explained.
As the leading enterprise in the Jiangbei business sector, Shengshi Group naturally received enthusiastic invitations for any official events.
Election?
But upon hearing this, a look of distaste immediately surfaced on the elegant and cultured features of the man.
“Why should I go? Do I have nothing better to do?”
“…”
“Alright, arrange a hall at the Mingzhu Hotel for them, just tell them I’m busy and can’t make it.”
In the end, he still arranged a free venue for these people, though begrudgingly, and the hotel he referred to was the most luxurious one under the Shengshi banner.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the secretary in front of him showed a troubled expression.
“President, the hotel part, it seems they have already made a decision,”
“What?” he was somewhat surprised.
“They aren’t mooching for free this time? Which one did they choose?” His way of speaking was indeed straightforward.
Chen Xiaosen could only give an awkward cough.
“It’s Baiqing Building of the Yin Family. President, you might not be aware, but they have recently launched a very special project—that is, delivering top-tier gourmet food to the influential and powerful of Jiangbei, using antique porcelain dishes that have been collected in their building for many years,”
“…”
“So, when the government learned about this, to highlight the significance of the election event, they specifically chose Baiqing Building,”
Chen Xiaosen narrated the Baiqing Building incident that had been stirring up quite a buzz in Jiangbei over the last couple of days.
Truth be told, he was surprised too when he learned about it.
Because, in just a couple of days, it had already impacted the hotels under the Shengshi banner, and many managers had called to say a lot of their orders had been canceled.
So, who exactly was the one behind such a stunningly brilliant idea this time at Baiqing Building?
Sheng Siyuan was also taken aback upon hearing this.
“Using antiques as plates? Who came up with that? Yin Beixiao? Was he not torn apart by the old fossils of the Yin Family for doing so?”
This was his first reaction.
Chen Xiaosen found it strange as well, but he was unable to answer this question.
“Not very clear, but right now, the Yin Family should be quite happy. President, you might not yet know, but with this move of theirs, many of our Shengshi hotels have been losing business to Baiqing Building,”
“…”
“How about this, President, why don’t you go and have a look that day? Maybe scope things out?”
Chen Xiaosen finally asked cautiously.
As a result, the moment the words left his mouth, he saw the man’s handsome face grow dark.
“Do I look idle to you? Even such a trivial matter requires my personal attention? Should I just collect everyone’s salary at the hotel myself, would that be okay?”
“…”
No one dared to respond to him.
Chen Xiaosen came out of the office.
“Buzz… Buzz…”
“Hello?”
“Secretary Chen, is the President still at work? It’s not good, Young Master Xi is missing, and he still hasn’t come home this late.”
Unexpectedly, just as he stepped out, he received a call from Shengfei Bay.
Chen Xiaosen’s face changed instantly: “What happened? How could the young master go missing? Weren’t you supposed to pick him up?”
“Yes, but when we were about to go there, Young Master Xi called us, saying he would be late. Then when we went there half an hour later, he was gone,” said the bodyguard on the phone, both anxious and panicked.
In an instant, upon hearing this, Chen Xiaosen broke out in a cold sweat, and he immediately turned back.
A few minutes later, the man in the office “snap” closed his laptop, rose from his chair, a look of cold horror on his face as if a tempest of force ten was imminent!
“A bunch of incompetents, can’t even keep an eye on a kid—have I been feeding you all for nothing?”
He stormed out of the office, already cursing wildly into his cell phone.
Xu Guannan on the phone didn’t dare utter a sound.
It wasn’t until the man reached the underground parking garage and climbed into his black Bentley that Xu Guannan dared to speak up with trepidation, “President, I’ve checked the kindergarten’s surveillance, and it shows that Miss Han took him away after school this afternoon.”
“What did you say?”
A single sentence caused the man who had just started his car to slam the brakes hard.
The car came to a jarring stop!
Xu Guannan was sweating bullets: “Yes, the principal said Miss Han went to the kindergarten this afternoon. She found Young Master Xi and, I don’t know what happened, but she started making a scene there and even threatened to call the police!”
“Later, out of desperation, the principal had no choice but to call Miss Lin. But by the time they came out, Young Master Xi had already been taken away by Miss Han.”
Xu Guannan detailed everything he learned at the kindergarten, especially when it came to the nanny causing such an unreasonable scene.
Disappointment could no longer be concealed in his tone.
He had thought that this woman was very smart and sensible, after all, she had performed well previously at Shengfei Bay.
But now…
“Click!”
As his words fell, the fingers of the man in the car gripping the steering wheel turned white and tense.
So, was that damned woman seeking revenge against him now?
She couldn’t deal with him, so she took it out on his son?
She was really courting death!
He restarted the car, while behind the lenses of his glasses, his eyes were instantly shrouded in an eerie and chilling murderous aura.
—
Amusement park.
Yin Hehe, who was playing with a child there, had no idea that danger was rapidly approaching her.
At that moment, she and the child were having a great time.
“How about it? Baby, are you having fun?”
They had just gotten off the swing ride, and Yin Hehe noticed that the child’s pretty little face seemed much brighter than usual.
Suddenly, she came over and took his little hand to ask.
The little guy immediately nodded: “Mhm.”
He was still sparing with his words.
Yin Hehe smiled, glanced at her watch, saw that it was almost time, and she took him to a nearby ice cream stand.
Chapter 58: Dare to Kidnap His Son? “Xi Bao, look, it’s getting late. How about we buy some ice cream to eat and then go home, okay?”
Yin Hehe took the little fellow to the ice cream stall and gently negotiated with him.
The little fellow obviously didn’t want to go back.
He had never had so much fun in his life as he did tonight; no one had ever taken him to an amusement park, and no one had ever treated him to so many delicious foods.
But even if he was having fun, it was time to go back home.
Otherwise, if Daddy saw that he hadn’t returned so late, he would investigate, and it would just cause trouble for this auntie.
In the end, the little fellow nodded his little head in agreement.
“Okay, then we’ll go back after we finish eating. Don’t worry, auntie will often come to pick you up from kindergarten to play, alright?”
Yin Hehe also saw that the little fellow was unhappy, so she made him another promise.
Upon hearing this, the little fellow visibly cheered up.
After buying the ice cream, they were leaving when Yin Hehe was about to lead the child to the parking area.
But just at that moment, a woman suddenly burst out in front of them.
“You slut, how dare you kidnap my son!”
“Slap!”
She charged at Yin Hehe like a mad dog and delivered a vicious slap across Yin Hehe’s face.
Suddenly, Yin Hehe, caught off guard, had her face whipped to the side.
The ice cream fell to the ground.
The surrounding area fell quiet as people in the amusement park, having witnessed the scene, stopped in their tracks, shocked, and turned to look.
The little fellow holding Yin Hehe’s hand was also stunned for a few seconds.
“What’s going on? Why is she hitting someone?”
“Yeah, who is she? Didn’t she see that there’s a child in her arms?”
“…”
The onlookers began to murmur among themselves.
Seeing this, before Yin Hehe, who had just been slapped, could speak, the woman who was acting like a mad dog shouted again.
“What child? That is my child. I’m telling you all, this woman is trying to abduct my son in broad daylight!”
She pointed at Yin Hehe’s nose, cursing loudly, and seeing that Sheng Xi was still in Yin Hehe’s hands, she lunged over to pull him away.
Sheng Xi’s small pupils shrunk.
Finally, he came to his senses.
“No!”
He immediately began to argue with reason.
The usually inarticulate boy, at that moment, in order to protect his auntie, had his little face turn completely red in anxiety.
Upon seeing this, Lin Shuang became even angrier.
“What are you saying? What do you mean no? I am your mother, you ungrateful wretch, get over here right now!”
After shouting, the woman reached out and viciously grabbed at the child.
The child reflexively shrank back.
Such ferocity would scare anyone, and if they didn’t know she was the child’s mother, they’d really think she was the kidnapper, the child trafficker. That contorted face, how could anyone see a trace of maternal love in it?
It was clear she was about to drag the child away and tear him apart.
Yin Hehe saw it too.
Suddenly, at the moment the child pulled back, she shielded him behind her.
“Miss Lin, what on earth are you trying to do? If you have an issue, let’s discuss it privately, don’t frighten the child.”
“What do you mean? I’m scaring the child?”
In an instant, her words landed, and the woman screamed even shriller, as if someone had stepped on her tail.
“Han Lina, clear this up, I am the child’s mother. You, a mere nanny, have abducted my child, and now you’re turning this around on me?”
“…”
A word provokes waves of comments.
In the crowd of onlookers, upon hearing this, suddenly, everyone started talking again.
“She’s actually a nanny?”
“Yeah, I had no idea either. I thought she was the child’s mother?”
“Me too. That’s strange though, if she’s just a nanny, why would she dare to take away her employer’s child? Isn’t she afraid of getting into trouble?”
“What’s there for her to fear? You don’t know, her employer is actually my husband’s ex-wife. After that woman died, this nanny, instead of moving on, has been latching onto my husband!”
Unexpectedly, the woman, seeing that everyone was discussing, simply joined in the conversation.
In front of all these people, she aired out their dirty laundry, leaving the bystanders in utter amazement.
Xi Bao’s little face turned a ghastly pale!
Only Yin Hehe stood there, watching the woman coldly, her expression unchanging from beginning to end.
Was she putting on a show?
Just to ruin her, Yin Hehe’s, reputation in front of these people?
Why?
Could it be to strike first, discredit her, Yin Hehe, so she wouldn’t have the chance to expose Lin Shuang’s abuse of this child?
She finally let out a cold laugh, “Miss Lin, you really don’t need to go to such lengths, these people don’t know either of us.”
“…”
“Or, you can tell them that you are the Director of Jiangbei Hospital, and the child’s father is the President of Shengshi Group. Then, perhaps they’ll be more invested in this affair.”
Yin Hehe graciously completed her story by providing all the details she intended to reveal.
Immediately, silence fell upon the scene.
And the woman, as though she’d been immobilized, her previous defiance still plastered across her face, now had all the color drained from it!
She had not expected this nanny to disclose her own identity, especially concerning that man!
Wasn’t this a death sentence for her?
“You—”
“So, she is the Director of Jiangbei Hospital.”
“Not just that, didn’t the nanny just mention the President of Shengshi Group? Those identities… My God, do these wealthy families really quarrel in the streets? I thought high society cared a lot about etiquette?”
“Could it be? Maybe she doesn’t belong to high society at all?”
Suddenly, someone said this.
Instantly, the woman stood there, her complexion whitening to transparency. She wished she could disappear from the spot.
But now that the onlookers knew her identity, how would they let her leave? They began to take out their phones and frantically snapshot her, some even started live-streaming.
Lin Shuang: “…”
In that instant, a strong hatred sprang from the bottom of her heart, and looking at the nanny in front of her, a particularly venomous glint shone in her eyes.
“Xi Bao, let’s go back.”
Yin Hehe was still unaware.
She saw that the woman had been beaten down like a drowned rat, utterly helpless to fight back.
She prepared to take the child and leave.
The child happily agreed.
“Sheng Xi, don’t you want your mom anymore?”
It was at this moment that the voice of the woman calling the little one from behind reached them, her voice laced with sobs, calling out to the child.
The little one’s feet suddenly froze.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Just as she was about to say something, the woman behind her began to lose control. Seeing that the child was still unwilling to pay attention to her, she started to back away in sorrow.
“Even you don’t want Mommy anymore. Alright, then I’ll go, I’ll leave, that’s what you want, right? Nobody needs me anymore.”
After saying this, she really stumbled towards the exit of the amusement park.
Sheng Xi: “…”
His little hand clenched tight, and finally, he let go of Yin Hehe’s hand and started chasing after the retreating figure with his small legs.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Watching the little figure, she did not stop him.
Because she knew that every child actually loves their mother, and moreover, this child was kind-hearted.
Yin Hehe watched him until he was almost at the edge of the road…
Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Daddy, be gentle! Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Daddy, be gentle! Yin Hehe felt reassured to let the child go over there because the playground area did not allow the passage of vehicles.
But that night, just as the little one was running toward the exit to cross over,
“Beep beep beep—”
“Xi Bao!”
Yin Hehe, seeing the car speeding toward them, rushed out without a second thought.
“Screech!”
By the time she finally got there and lunged forward, grabbing the child back into her arms,
the car also came to a sharp, loud stop right at the exit.
“Xi Bao, are you alright? How are you feeling? Did you get hurt anywhere?”
Having successfully rescued the child, Yin Hehe had no time to rebuke the driver; she immediately checked the child’s condition.
Fortunately, the little guy was fine.
However, it was a bit strange as he didn’t speak after she saved him,
just staring down at a particular spot on her with his large, beautiful dark eyes, unblinkingly.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Was the child scared silly?
She didn’t understand his meaning and seeing that the crowd had gathered around, she attempted to get up to take him to a safe place.
“Uh…”
Finally, as she tried to stand up, the intense pain shooting up from her toes let her know what had happened.
“This is outrageous, how could there be a car here? This is a children’s playground, vehicles are prohibited!”
“Exactly, if it wasn’t for her, the child would probably have been in trouble by now.”
“But she’s not lightly injured either, look at her foot, is it going to be ruined?”
The people standing around had also seen the pool of fresh blood beneath Yin Hehe’s feet and immediately started cursing angrily.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Looking at the tip of her high heel, now a blur of blood and flesh, her face turned even paler, yet she bore the pain and tried to stand up again.
“Daddy?”
Suddenly, the child beside her tilted up his little head.
Yin Hehe paused, and looking closely, she saw that at some point a pair of men’s feet had appeared before them.
His legs were straight, and his black trousers, too long for his slender frame, revealed sharply defined ankles. However, the handmade leather shoes, though covered with dust, indicated his hectic pacing throughout the night.
Yin Hehe’s mind froze for a moment.
Why had he come? Was he here with that woman to catch her?
Yin Hehe looked up at the man, seeing his handsome face staring down at her intently behind his glasses. Sure enough, his eyes were swirling with something fierce and stormy.
Her face grew even paler.
“Ayuan, you’ve finally arrived. Look, our son, he was stolen from kindergarten by her, and he almost got into an accident just now…”
As expected, upon seeing the man arrive, the woman who had been silent on the other side immediately started calling out from outside the crowd.
She was sobbing, pushing her way through to complain to the man with tears streaming down.
Yin Hehe did not argue.
She sat on the ground, holding her foot that she could barely lift, her gaze cold to the extreme, silently staring at the two of them.
She wanted to see, what would this despicable couple do to her this time?
“No, she’s… she’s talking nonsense!”
Unexpectedly, the little one stood up for her as he heard his biological mother still trying to slander someone at such a time.
He could no longer contain his anger and pointed his finger at her in accusation.
The woman’s face immediately changed color.
“Son, what are you saying? Are you saying your mom is talking nonsense? How can you speak to your mom like that? You…”
“Slap!”
Like a bolt from the blue!
No one expected that as she was about to play the victim once more, the man beside her suddenly swung his hand and slapped her hard across the face!
The scene fell silent.
And the woman staggered several steps, taking a long time before she could even grasp what had happened, her hand on her cheek in shock.
He actually hit her?
For the sake of a nanny, he had slapped her in front of so many people?
Her mind was collapsing…
Yin Hehe was also stunned for a moment, looking at the man who had lashed out, her entire expression one of disbelief.
Was she seeing things?
“Do you take everyone for fools? You even dare to put on an act in front of me? Have you had too many good days or what?”
The man’s gaze was icy as he stared at the woman. When his anger fully erupted, the disgust and murderous intent that burst forth from his eyes even made Yin Hehe’s scalp tingle.
Was she not his cherished one?
Why was he so ruthless toward her too? Was this not a trivial matter to him?
Yin Hehe was somewhat unable to comprehend.
Soon, the head bodyguard, Xu Guannan, who followed the man, also arrived, and he immediately came over when he saw the scene.
“President.”
“Drag her away, and we will settle the account with her properly when we get back!” the man said with a fierce tone.
In a flash, Lin Shuang’s entire face turned ashen. By the time Xu Guannan approached, she had already slumped to the ground.
“Ayuan, listen to my explanation, Ayuan…”
“…”
Until the car drove away, it was as if she could still hear the woman’s pitiful pleas echoing in her ears.
Yin Hehe had by now also snapped back to reality.
Seeing that the incident had ended just like that, she pushed herself up from the ground, ready to head back.
“Hm?”
However, just as she got up, a pair of small hands reached out to steady her arm.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Looking down at the little one who wanted to follow her, she revealed a trace of helplessness. “It’s okay, Aunty is fine. You should hurry back home with daddy.”
She tried to get the little one to let go.
But the little one seemed not to have heard, his small hands clinging tightly to her arm, seeing that “Aunty” was still unable to walk properly.
Suddenly, he turned his head to look at the tall man standing behind him.
“Daddy?”
“…”
In a second, Yin Hehe sensed something was wrong.
“It’s nothing, Xi Bao, Aunty just has a minor injury. Aunty has already called a friend, and he will be here to pick Aunty up in a while,” she quickly comforted the little one.
But to her surprise, just as her words fell, she felt a chill drop rapidly not far from her.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Before she could react, a large, chilling figure had already arrived before her, and then, with one hand, he flicked the little one still clinging to her aside, while his other hand roughly picked Yin Hehe up.
“Ah—”
Caught off guard, Yin Hehe exclaimed in both pain and shock.
And the little one also cried out dissatisfiedly, “Daddy, be gentle!”
The man: “…”
His expression became even uglier.
“Shut up and go open the car door.” Then, he tossed the car keys to his son and carried the woman away.
Sheng Xi: “…”
Yin Hehe: “…”
Until both the tall and the small figure were stuffed into the car, Yin Hehe’s mind was still in a daze, feeling as if she had been swept through by a storm.
What was this rhythm?
Why was he taking her away? Where was he taking her? Had he not let her go?
Yin Hehe sat in the car with her fingers clenched tightly.
All the way, she was tense all over. She dared not speak, much less move, just holding the little one in her arms, her gaze fixed intently forward, on guard.
However, after about twenty minutes, she saw what appeared to be a hospital building in the distance.
Yin Hehe: “…”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Shen is there.”
Seeing this, the little one, who hadn’t made a sound all the way, also spoke a few straightforward words.
Yin Hehe was taken aback.
Uncle Shen?
But she found that not long after these words, the man driving in front turned the steering wheel towards that building and drove in.
Chapter 60 The Son Pays for the Father’s Debt “Young Master Sheng, what happened to you again? Can’t you save me some worry? You’ve been looking for me three or four times a day; if you’re not worn out, I certainly am.”
Indeed, just as they arrived inside, a young male doctor in a white lab coat came out.
However, as soon as he saw the man driving, he began to beat his chest and stomp his feet in accusation, looking as if the man owed him tens of millions, and he would kowtow to acknowledge his ancestors if he could.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Shen Fang?
She finally recognized him.
“Eh? Little nanny? So it turns out you brought someone with you tonight?”
At this moment, the doctor saw her too.
In an instant, he stopped nagging the man and instead walked over to Yin Hehe, his eyes showing a deep interest in her.
Yin Hehe felt a little embarrassed.
Half past ten, the emergency department of the hospital.
Yin Hehe sat in the chair; even though she was mentally prepared, when he used the tweezers to remove the crushed toenail off her big toe, she still shuddered from the pain.
“Does it hurt?”
Shen Fang saw and looked up at her.
Yin Hehe took a moment to recover, then shook her head with a pale face in front of him, “Not too bad.”
“Tsk…”
Upon hearing this, the doctor let out a sigh.
“How could it not hurt? The tips of human fingers are one of the most sensitive areas to nerve endings; with your kind of injury, not many men could bear it.”
“…”
“So, I’m very curious, why would you risk your life to save his son when that guy doesn’t treat you well?”
As he spoke, he even began to tease the man who was sitting not far away.
Yin Hehe felt immediately uneasy upon hearing this.
As for that man, he was sitting with his legs crossed, his handsome face turning so cold in those few seconds that it seemed it could drip water.
“How can anyone ignore someone in danger? Besides, I was the one who brought Xi Bao out; I have the responsibility to take good care of him.”
Yin Hehe ultimately replied calmly.
It was the truth.
Any person, in this kind of situation, would lend a hand, especially her, as a lawyer upholding social order and justice.
The doctor raised an eyebrow.
“That’s also debatable. Look at what happened tonight; if you hadn’t saved the child, wouldn’t there have been trouble?”
He had a point.
His gaze then turned, half-mockingly, back to the man sitting not far away.
Yin Hehe was a bit confused and instinctively turned her head following his gaze, but with just that one glance, she saw not only the shadow on the man’s face but also the obvious anger in his eyes.
It was as if the doctor had spoken words that should not have been spoken.
It made him very angry!
So who was the doctor talking about? Wasn’t the primary culprit of tonight’s near-disaster his former sweetheart?
Yin Hehe’s expression grew cold.
“Fortunately, the bone wasn’t damaged. Rest for a while, and your toenail will grow back.”
“Good, thank you, Dr. Shen.”
Yin Hehe breathed a sigh of relief.
She planned to immediately contact Song Wenjing to pick her up. If she returned too late, her brother would start worrying.
“However, it would be best if you don’t put weight on your foot for the next few days. Even though the bones aren’t injured, your wound is quite large. Moving around could cause it to open up, leading to unstoppable bleeding and a risk of sepsis.”
Shen Fang in the white lab coat suddenly added another comment.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Before she had the chance to speak, the little one who had been playing beside daddy suddenly looked up.
“Daddy, hold her!”
“!!!!!”
The whole examination room fell silent.
And Yin Hehe’s ears flushed red in an instant.
“Xi Bao, what are you talking about? It’s very late. Let Daddy take you home. Don’t worry about Auntie.”
She hurriedly tried to stop him, afraid that the little guy’s meddling would lead to the same embarrassing scene that had just occurred in the amusement park.
But the little guy was very stubborn.
“Daddy, are you a man or not?”
“…”
At this point, the man who had been silent at the side felt as if veins were about to pop out on his forehead.
“Asking for a spanking?”
In just a few minutes, the consultation room was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Yin Hehe saw it and, in a mix of urgency and embarrassment, tried to smooth things over.
However, when the little guy saw his daddy get angry at him, he defiantly and coldly retorted, “A son must pay his father’s debts!”
“Hahahahahaha…”
Shen Fang couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter right there.
Yin Hehe was extremely embarrassed as well.
She looked at the man whose handsome face was alternating between shades of green and white from his son’s retorts, and she wished she could just vanish on the spot!
Who on earth had taught this child these things?
In the end, Yin Hehe was tactful enough to get a pair of crutches from the hospital, defusing the awkward crisis.
“Mr. Sheng, thank you for taking me to the hospital today. You can take the child back now; Mr. Yin will pick me up.”
She deliberately mentioned her brother.
Upon hearing this, the man sitting in the chair didn’t react this time.
He glanced at his watch and, seeing that it was indeed late, stood up and walked over with long strides.
“Don’t worry, tomorrow I’ll have someone deposit a sum of money into your account, as compensation for saving my son.”
By the time he reached her, his demeanor was casual and relaxed, no longer the fierce and vicious manner he adopted whenever he saw her, but much calmer.
Yin Hehe was taken aback.
“You’ve misunderstood, Mr. Sheng. What I did was my duty; there’s no need to pay me.”
“Is that so?”
Sheng Siyuan finally looked down at her with a gaze that seemed to loom from on high.
“Or perhaps, Miss Han, you could view it as money to ensure you don’t appear before the child again in the future.”
“…”
For a full five seconds, Yin Hehe looked up at the man’s indifferent eyes, finally understanding his meaning.
Does he not want her to see Xi Bao again?
So, he had always believed that woman’s words, thinking that Yin Hehe had an ulterior motive for approaching his son?
Then why offer money? Wouldn’t it have been better to treat her the way he used to? Moving his hands would have even saved money!
The trace of softness that had just appeared in Yin Hehe’s eyes quickly turned into ice again.
“Mr. Sheng, whether I see Xi Bao or not is my freedom, it has nothing to do with you. You have no right to interfere with me.”
“…”
“Furthermore, I went to see him today because when I was in Shengfei Bay, I promised him that if he behaved and went to kindergarten, I would take him out to play and stay with him.”
“But quite clearly, I’ve broken my promise.”
As Yin Hehe spoke those last words, her voice noticeably dropped.
The man paused, taken aback.
Motherly love was something he had hardly felt over these years.
For the past four years with Lin Shuang, he hadn’t seen much good. She was irresponsible towards their child, impatient, dismissive, either yelling at him or deceiving him every day, and she had major problems with the way she taught their child.
So he thought all women were like that, that being a mother was always like this.
Until he saw this woman.
Sheng Siyuan looked down at her and thought of the scene that had occurred not long ago in the amusement park. Finally, he asked, “He’s not your child, so why are you so good to him?”
