Xiao Bao ran to Xia Wanyuan’s side and waved at her. “Mommy, bend down.”

Xia Wanyuan bent down and Xiao Bao kissed her on the cheek, causing her to smile.

Then, Xiao Bao glared at Jun Shiling. “Hmph, I don’t want to kiss you!”

Bad Daddy, in order to monopolize Mommy, he actually sent me to Great-grandfather’s house and didn’t bring me back. I don’t want Jun Shiling to be my second best person anymore. 

Jun Shiling glanced at Xiao Bao and walked over to pick him up.

Xiao Bao struggled for a while. “Bad Daddy, let go of me. Someone is stealing a child!”

“Shut up.” The moment Jun Shiling spoke, Xiao Bao immediately sat still.

Xia Wanyuan was amused. She followed Jun Shiling into the car and Xiao Bao looked at her. “Mommy.”

Xia Wanyuan reached out and took Xiao Bao. A smug smile appeared on Xiao Bao’s pink face, but he was so angry that his cheeks bulged. “Mommy, Daddy is a bad person. He won’t let me see you.”

“No, it’s because Great-grandfather hasn’t been in good health recently. Great-grandfather likes you the most, right? He sent you over to make Great-grandfather happy. You’re a happy fruit,” Xia Wanyuan comforted Xiao Bao.

Xiao Bao thought for a while and did not dwell on this question. He hugged Xia Wanyuan’s neck. “Anyway, Daddy doesn’t treat me well. Help me scold him.”

Jun Shiling could not stand Xiao Bao acting coquettishly. He looked away in disdain. “A man is not allowed to act coquettishly.”

“Hmph!” Xiao Bao hugged Xia Wanyuan righteously. “I’m just acting coquettishly. My mommy likes it!”

“…” Jun Shiling gritted his teeth. He wanted to punch someone, but when he looked at Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling suppressed this thought.

“Mommy, why are you picking me up today?” Although Xiao Bao wanted to see Xia Wanyuan, he knew that his great-grandfather liked him and was very willing to accompany him.

“Your father and I are going somewhere in two days. We’ll bring you back for a meal.” Xia Wanyuan patted Xiao Bao’s head. “You have to be good and take good care of Great-grandfather.”

“Okay.” Xiao Bao nodded. “I’m the most obedient!”

Xiao Bao had not seen Xia Wanyuan for a few days. This time, when he saw her, he kept talking to her.

When they were about to get out of the car, Xia Wanyuan glanced at Jun Shiling. She secretly whispered a few words into Xiao Bao’s ear, and his eyes lit up. “Really?”

Xia Wanyuan nodded, and Xiao Bao blushed.

He slid down from Xia Wanyuan’s lap and leaned towards Jun Shiling. He extended his arms, looking like he wanted Jun Shiling to hug him.

Jun Shiling glanced at him in disdain but still reached out to pick Xiao Bao up.

A ball of milk fragrance fell into his arms, and Jun Shiling’s heart warmed.

The moment Xiao Bao landed in Jun Shiling’s arms, he hugged Jun Shiling’s neck and kissed him on the cheek. “Daddy, I miss you too.”

Jun Shiling’s eyes warmed. “Rascal.”

Xiao Bao chuckled and hugged Jun Shiling tightly, enjoying the warmth from his father.

Jun Shiling reached out and rubbed Xiao Bao’s head. “I bought you a plane.”

“I knew you were the best, Daddy!” With the plane, Xiao Bao’s unhappiness from Jun Shiling’s disdain was completely cured.

This time, they did not go home but went straight to Bo Xiao.

It had been a long time since she had seen Bo Xiao and An Rao. An Rao had already expressed her longing for Xiao Bao countless times. This time, she brought Xiao Bao along.

As expected, when they arrived at Bo Xiao’s house and she saw Xiao Bao, An Rao’s eyes lit up.

“Wow, little cutie!!” An Rao reached out to Xiao Bao.

Xiao Bao ran over and lightened his footsteps when he was five steps away from An Rao, afraid that he would bump into her stomach. He smiled and leaned towards An Rao. “The most beautiful Auntie An Rao, I miss you so much!”

An Rao was overjoyed by his coaxing and took out a large pile of candy.

Xiao Bao looked at the candy in front of him excitedly, but he quickly deflated. He secretly glanced at Jun Shiling and met his cold gaze.

Xiao Bao howled and retracted his hand.

“Daddy doesn’t allow me to eat candy.”

However, in private, An Rao secretly hid a candy in her palm and handed it to Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao’s eyes lit up and he took the candy from An Rao.

I knew that Auntie An Rao was the best! The most beautiful!

Xia Wanyuan walked over and prepared to talk to An Rao.

Xiao Bao ran to the side alone and secretly bent down to peel the candy wrapper. Before he could put a candy in his mouth, a hand reached out and took the candy from his mouth.

Xiao Bao looked up and saw Jun Shiling’s cold face. Xiao Bao’s face fell. “Daddy, I just want to smell it. I don’t plan to eat it.”

Jun Shiling snorted softly and threw the candy into the trash can. “Look at your teeth. How dare you eat candy?”

Xiao Bao pursed his lips and sat there pitifully, accepting Jun Shiling’s reprimand.

Bo Xiao walked over and pulled Jun Shiling. “Alright, I still have something to tell you.”

Only then did Jun Shiling leave with Bo Xiao.

Behind him, Xiao Bao made a face at Jun Shiling.

In the study, Bo Xiao brewed a pot of tea for Jun Shiling. “Are you going to Lin Xi?”

“Mm.” Jun Shiling nodded. “The Lin family is about to change. They sent us an invitation.”

“Who exactly is that Lin Qingyuan? Why have I never heard of such a person in the Lin family before?” Bo Xiao found it very strange.

The power struggle in big families was very intense.

However, it was really strange how an abandoned child like Lin Qingyuan returned to the Lin family to take control.

“He’s an abandoned son. He was brought to America twenty years ago and only returned last year.” Jun Shiling did not receive much news. He took a sip of tea and his eyes were deep. “Behind him, there should be an unclear relationship with a family in America, but I’m not sure which family it is.”

If he could investigate, Jun Shiling would not have to go to the birthday banquet personally.

It was because they could not investigate that it was even more strange.

A very powerful force had been hiding Lin Qingyuan’s information. Even Jun Shiling could not clear the fog of this force.

“Could it be the Blue family of America?” Bo Xiao thought for a while and suddenly suggested this hypothesis.

After all, the head of the Blue family was Chinese and had a close relationship with China. If it were anyone else, Bo Xiao could not imagine which American would take Lin Qingyuan back.

Jun Shiling pondered for a moment and finally shook his head. “No.”

“Alright, there will be a day when the matter is investigated.” Since he could not guess, Bo Xiao decided not to guess.

“How are the preparations for your wedding?”

“It’s about time. Thank you for sending people over.” Bo Xiao nodded at Jun Shiling.

Now that An Rao was pregnant, he did not have the energy to be distracted by the preparations for the wedding. Fortunately, Jun Shiling had sent Lin Jing over and Lin Jing had helped him arrange everything.

“You’re welcome,” Jun Shiling replied. There was no need for ‘thank you’ between him and Bo Xiao.

“I have a bad feeling recently.” Bo Xiao stood up and looked at the traffic outside the window. The uneasiness in his heart was stirring. He turned around and looked at Jun Shiling. “I don’t know where this intuition comes from, but it seems like something will happen.”

Bo Xiao’s feeling came for no reason, but it really made him feel uncomfortable.

That was why he was so anxious to hold a wedding with An Rao. Even though An Rao was about to give birth, he did not want to waste any time.

Jun Shiling’s expression was a little solemn. “The family forces in this world have been peaceful for a while.”

The lake that had been calm for too long was sometimes not really calm.

Instead, it was brewing an even greater wave.

The two of them did not talk for long. In the afternoon, Bo Xiao did not want the auntie to cook for Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan, so he could only cook himself.

Xia Wanyuan and An Rao chatted in the living room, while Jun Shiling and Bo Xiao cooked in the kitchen.

Bo Xiao glanced at the skilled Jun Shiling. “Not bad, Brother. Your knife skills are not bad. Have you done these many things at home?”

Jun Shiling glanced at him. “Your food is not bad either.”

Bo Xiao smiled. “I’m doting on my wife. I’m proud.”

Jun Shiling continued to cut the vegetables in his hand and did not speak.

Soon, the rich fragrance of the food spread to the house. An Rao took a deep breath and was about to drool.

She gulped. “Sister, it smells too good.”

Xia Wanyuan was also hungry. She glanced at the kitchen. “I’ll get some food.”

“Okay!” An Rao was like a little hamster waiting to be fed, her eyes shining with excitement.

Xia Wanyuan walked to the kitchen and glanced at the pot.

Bo Xiao knew An Rao’s temper too well. He had taken out a plate early and placed some meat on it. “Sister-in-law, this is for you. Try it first. The food will be ready soon.”

Xia Wanyuan took the plate and replied, “Okay.”

Thick heat spread in the room. In the living room, Xia Wanyuan, An Rao, and Xiao Bao were eating hot braised pork. In the kitchen, Jun Shiling and Bo Xiao were cooking.

The sun was just right, and the breeze was warm.

When Bo Xiao walked into the living room with the food, he suddenly felt melancholic.

He thought that if only life would continue like this and stop at this moment forever.

There were family, friends, and laughter. 

Unfortunately, time would not stop for anyone or anything.

After dinner, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan left.

With Bo Xiao’s help, An Rao waved at Xia Wanyuan. “Yuan Yuan, come back early. I’ll wait for you to be my bridesmaid.”

“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan waved at An Rao. Xiao Bao reluctantly bade farewell to An Rao and Bo Xiao.

Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan were about to leave Beijing. On the way back, they sent Xiao Bao to Old Master.

The old master was as kind as ever. He looked at the family of three and nodded in satisfaction.

Although Old Master Jun had already retreated behind the scenes,

However, as the former head of the Jun family, how could he not smell the surging aura?

However, the old master, who was used to storms, knew that any storm would pass.

As long as the family was united, they could transcend countless storms and guard their last hope.

“Grandpa.” Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan went forward to greet Old Master.

“Mm.” The old master smiled and nodded. He reached out to Xiao Bao. “Come to Great-grandfather obediently. Your parents are busy.”

Xiao Bao nodded and let go of Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan’s hand. “Daddy, Mommy, you have to remember to miss me.”

After sending Xiao Bao to Old Master, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan quickly left.

In the car, looking at Xia Wanyuan’s reluctant expression, Jun Shiling smiled and hugged her. “Don’t worry, when we return from the south, we’ll bring Jun Yin back to live with us.”

Xia Wanyuan nodded. “Mm.”

Jun Shiling was not the only one who was preparing to leave Beijing.

Now, almost all the higher-ups in Beijing were preparing to go to Linxi.

The ancient city in the south became the focus of the world at this moment.

As the largest family in the south, everyone was undoubtedly paying attention to the successor ceremony of the Lin family.

“Hubby, can you bring me along?” Zhang Yi naturally knew that Lin Xi City would gather celebrities from all walks of life this time. Because it was her second marriage, her relationship with the rich ladies had never been good.

This time, so many people were going to the Lin family’s succession ceremony. She wanted to follow them and build a good relationship with those noble ladies.

Mu Ting glanced at Zhang Yi, the displeasure in his eyes obvious. “Can you stop bending over? Stay at home and recuperate. Didn’t you say that the doctor told you that this child can be kept?”

When Mu Ting said this, Zhang Yi was instantly speechless.

Wang Ya had already helped her find a suitable person to help give birth, so Zhang Yi found the relevant doctor and gave her a fake certificate.

She told Mu Ting that her child was easy to keep. Mu Ting was naturally very happy when he found out. After asking the doctor with her report, the doctor told Mu Ting with certainty that the possibility was as high as 90%.

It was originally caused by Zhang Yi, but now, it had become the reason why she could not go to Lin Xi.

Zhang Yi had no choice but to watch Mu Ting leave with his assistant, while she could only drink bitter and recuperate at home.

Zhang Yi was depressed. She had smashed all the porcelain cups in the house.

The servants outside heard the commotion inside and could not help but shake their heads.

It was difficult to be a wife of a wealthy family, but it was not easy to be a servant of a wealthy family either.

They had been cleaning up the trash for them every day.

——

As Lin Qingyuan’s birthday was approaching, everyone was preparing to leave.

An invitation from the Lin family exploded in the noble circle.

The wedding invitation clearly showed that on the day of the succession ceremony, the Lin family would welcome their new mistress.

And this matriarch came from the Wei family.

The name of the matriarch of the Wei family in the photo was “Wei Jin”.

However, anyone who had seen Wei Jin could tell that she was clearly the daughter-in-law of the Mu family!
