Xu Xiaoche’s investigation report stated that this was the child of the Shen family, and everything appeared to be logically sound, yet it also seemed somewhat illogical.
Thinking about this, Wen Jin grew even quieter.
“Daddy?” Yu Xiaobao was momentarily puzzled and called out to Wen Jin.
“What’s wrong?” Wen Jin snapped back to reality.
“I’m hungry.” Yu Xiaobao rubbed her stomach. “Auntie is resting today, and Mommy is angry. I might go hungry.”
“Does Mommy starve you when she’s angry?” Wen Jin furrowed his brows.
Yu Xiaobao shook her head.
Coincidentally, Auntie was taking a break today, and Dabao wasn’t at home either.
Yu Xiaobao’s cooking skills were just as unreliable as Yu Anwan’s, so they usually ordered takeout.
But now, there was a ready-made chef available. Why would she choose to order takeout?
After a moment of thought, Yu Xiaobao smiled and said, “Daddy, can you cook for me? Your cooking is delicious.” “Of course I can.” Wen Jin smiled.
He concealed his thoughts quite well.
With that, Wen Jin held Yu Xiaobao’s hand and headed towards the kitchen.
Yu Xiaobao brought over a stool and patiently waited nearby.
Wen Jin opened the refrigerator and inspected its contents. “Tonight, we’ll have stir-fried cabbage with sugar and wine, steamed cucumber fish, stir-fried pork tenderloin, and a mushroom soup. Does that sound good?”
“Sounds great,” Yu Xiaobao sweetly replied.
Wen Jin nodded and turned to gather the ingredients.
“Daddy, Mommy likes these dishes,” Yu Xiaobao suddenly mentioned.
Wen Jin’s hands momentarily paused.
He was well aware that during their time at the Wen family’s house, Yu Anwan had favored these dishes quite a bit. Wen Jin had initially thought he had simply noticed this, but he didn’t expect that these memories would resurface so strongly after many years. Not only had they resurfaced, but Yu Xiaobao had also explicitly mentioned lt.
Wen Jin managed to hide his emotions and thoughts very effectively.
Before long, the kitchen was filled with the delightful aroma of food.
Wen Jin finished cooking and encouraged Yu Xiaobao to start eating first.
Yu Xiaobao blinked, and Wen Jin understood what she meant. “I’ll go upstairs and call Mommy. You can start eating.”
“Okay,” Yu Xiaobao happily agreed.
She lowered her head and began devouring her meal. Wen Jin affectionately patted her head before turning and making his way upstairs.
Once Wen Jin had left, Yu Xiaobao took a photo of the dinner and sent it to their small group chat.
Yu Xiaobao said, “Daddy made this! Can I succeed in making Daddy stay tonight?”
Wen Zhanyan replied, “You can do it.”
Wen Ye added, “Xioabao, you’re the hope of the whole village.”
Yu Dabao said, “Impossible.”
Only Yu Dabao and Yu Xiaobao had differing opinions.
This time, Yu Xiaobao was displeased. She grabbed her phone and asked Yu Dabao.
Yu Xiaobao asked, “Why is it impossible?! Daddy even went to call Mommy for dinner!”
Yu Dabao replied, “Mommy will chase Wen Jin away.”
Yu Xiaobao was left speechless.
Wen Zhanyan was left speechless.
Wen Ye was left speechless.
Sob, sob, sob, stinky Dabao, why did you have to state such an obvious truth so bluntly? It was too annoying!
Yu Xiaobao pursed her lips, and the food in front of her no longer seemed appetizing.
At the same time, Wen Jin appeared at the door of Yu Anwan’s room and knocked on it. Yu Anwan didn’t even acknowledge her presence.
Wen Jin turned the doorknob, but the door wasn’t locked.
Wen Jin’s figure entered the room, and Yu Anwan’s gaze immediately shifted to him.
Before Yu Anwan could speak, Wen Jin calmly stated, “Xioabao asked me to come up and call you for dinner.”
Wen Jin knew very well that using himself to pressure Yu Anwan wouldn’t work. However, using Yu Xiaobao would undoubtedly yield better results because Yu Anwan wouldn’t refuse any of Yu Xiaobao’s requests.
Upon hearing Wen Jin’s words, Yu Anwan sneered and said, “President Wen, don’t think you can make me comply with everything just because of Yu Xiaobao?”
She was so angry that she even used Yu Xiaobao’s full name.
Wen Jin acknowledged this with a grunt, seemingly unfazed by Yu Anwan’s anger. She continued to walk toward her.
Yu Anwan watched as Wen Jin approached her without any visible reaction. Her gaze didn’t waver.
When Wen Jin reached Yu Anwan, she didn’t utter a word. She calmly took Yu
Anwan’s hand and said, “Let’s go eat first.”
Yu Anwan tried to pull her hand away without hesitation. “I don’t want to eat.”
Just as Yu Anwan finished speaking, her stomach betrayed her with two audible growls. This left Yu Anwan embarrassed.
Wen Jin raised an eyebrow and looked at Yu Anwan with a half-smile, a hint of mockery in his eyes. “You don’t want to eat?” Wen Jin asked.
Yu Anwan was so frustrated that she wanted to free herself from Wen Jin’s grip.
However, the more Yu Anwan struggled, the tighter Wen Jin held her.
In this struggle, Yu Anwan ended up getting closer to Wen Jin. They were so close that they could hear each other’s heartbeats and smell each other’s scents.
Yu Anwan suddenly lost her composure.
Just as she was about to retort to Wen Jin, Wen Jin calmly asked, “Do you have to oppose me?”
Before Yu Anwan could respond, Yu Xiaobao’s soft voice came from outside the master bedroom, “Mommy, Daddy, are you done yet? Hurry down for dinner. I feel lonely eating alone.”
Yu Xiaobao’s little head peeked in. When she saw Yu Anwan and Wen Jin so close to each other, she couldn’t help but pursed her lips and smiled happily.
Yu Xiaobao immediately turned around and said as she ran, “Hurry up, I’ll be waiting.”
Wen Jin watched Yu Xiaobao leave with a hint of fondness in his eyes.
Then, Wen Jin’s gaze returned to Yu Anwan. “You can’t bear to disappoint Xioabao, can you?”
Those words felt like a dagger stabbing into Yu Anwan’s heart.
Of course, she couldn’t disappoint Yu Xiaobao, and it was an undeniable fact that Yu Xiaobao liked Wen Jin.
If she kicked Wen Jin out without giving him any face, Yu Xiaobao would probably ignore her for days.
With Yu Dabao absent, Yu Anwan wouldn’t be able to persuade Yu Xiaobao.
This time, Yu Anwan had to compromise. Looking at Wen Jin’s expression, Yu Anwan grew even angrier. “Wen Jin, this is for Xiaobao! After dinner, leave immediately!”
Yu Anwan made her stance clear.
Wen Jin didn’t respond. It remained uncertain whether he agreed or not.
Wen Jin continued to hold Yu Anwan’s hand and calmly walked out of the master bedroom. No matter how much Yu Anwan struggled, Wen Jin didn’t let her go.
It was as if they were meant to hold hands like this.
Yu Anwan almost started to believe so herself.
“Let go of me,” Yu Anwan hissed at Wen Jin in a lowered voice.
“Xiaobao is watching,” Wen Jin calmly reminded her.
Yu Anwan glanced over, and Yu Xiaobao immediately caught her gaze, winking at her as if to confirm that she was indeed watching.
Yu Anwan was left speechless..
