“Since you want them, why do you pretend that you don’t want them?”Li Jingran’s face darkened a little.

“Because… because –”

“I usually teach him not to take other people’s things.”Xu Wanwan happened to walk out of the kitchen at this moment. When she saw the house full of toys, she immediately understood what was going on.

Li Jingran had always been like this. He was generous.

However, she was strict with Xu Yanzhi. Since she was young, she did not satisfy his material needs too much.

Both of them could not help but turn to look at Xu Wanwan. Xu Yanzhi pursed his lips and quickly ran over. “Mommy, I didn’t ask for these toys. Uncle Li insisted on giving them to me!”

“Then did you thank Uncle Li?”

Xu Yanzhi was a little surprised because his mommy was not angry.

He quickly turned around and ran to Li Jingran. He raised his little head and said seriously, “Uncle Li, thank you for the toy you gave me. I like it very much!”

The child in front of him looked very similar to him. His seriousness and innocence were especially similar to Xu Wanwan’s.

Facing such a cute little ball, Li Jingran’s indifference gradually faded. “Do you have anything else you want?”

Xu Yanzhi hugged the toy and jumped onto the sofa. He tilted his head and thought for a moment. “Have you been to an amusement park?”

Li Jingran raised his eyebrows. “No.”

“Neither have I.”Xu Yanzhi sighed softly. “I’ve only seen it on TV. I heard that there are a lot of fun things there. It’s much more interesting than playing with toys.”

“Mommy and Daddy promised to take me there for my birthday, but they’re too busy with work…”

The little guy said as he sized up Li Jingran, his heart filled with anticipation.

This uncle Li could give him so many toys, it didn’t seem that bad.

Moreover, his home was so big, it was obvious that he was rich.

It would be great if he could play with him.

“You want me to take you to the amusement park?”Li Jingran looked at Xu Yanzhi indifferently.

Xu Yanzhi didn’t want to show it, so he said proudly, “I’m just asking casually.”

Xu Wanwan stood to the side and could not help but shake her head. She took off her apron and walked towards the little guy. “Yanzhi, don’t ask for too much.”

“Uncle Li’s work is even busier. If you want to go to the amusement park, I’ll take you there when I have time.”

Xu Yanzhi pouted, feeling wronged. “Okay, Mommy.”

“The cake is ready. Do you want to try it?”

The little guy suddenly became happy again. “Really?”

He threw down the toy in his hand and rushed to the dining room with his short legs.

Li Jingran watched him running in the living room from afar, and his heart was moved.

At this moment, he finally realized the happiness of his family.

Xu Wanwan stood beside Li Jingran and hesitated for a while. “Um… Do you want to try it too?”

Li Jingran readily agreed. “Sure.”

At the dining table, Xu Yanzhi was eating the strawberry cake contentedly. He did not know that there was cream at the corner of his mouth, and his cheeks were puffy. He was eating it very sweetly.

Xu Wanwan took out a tissue and lowered her body to wipe the corner of his lips. “Slow down.”

Her long hair casually fell on one side of her shoulder, and her gentle side face was covered with a faint halo. There was a gentle and beautiful smile on the corners of her eyes and brows.

Li Jingran sat across from the dining room and was lost in his thoughts.

He didn’t know whether it was because the light was too dazzling or because the memories were too painful, but his eyes were slightly red.

Xu Wanwan put down the napkin. When she looked up again, she happened to see the man’s deep and thought-provoking eyes.

She was in a daze for a moment. She quietly moved her gaze away, picked up the glass of water on the dining table, and took a sip of water.

Being relatively speechless could not solve any problem. Someone had to break the deadlock and take the initiative to speak.

Xu Wanwan calmed herself down and raised her eyes slightly. “Let’s talk openly.”

This time, she was calm enough, and the emotions in her eyes were not as cold as before.

Because she knew that Li Jingran had not been having an easy time these three years, the resentment in her heart had also dissipated.

“Yes.”Li Jingran’s gaze was fixed on the girl. “What do you want to talk about?”

“I know you Miss Xu Yanzhi.”

Xu Wanwan said, “I can let Yanzhi stay here for a few days, but he has long adapted to life abroad. I will bring him back sooner or later. I hope you can consider it for me.”

“If you still want to see Yanzhi in the future, I can bring him to you, or you can bring him abroad. We can arrange a fixed time to meet on time.”

This was the solution that she had thought of for a long time.

Since Xu Yanzhi did not have to leave her side, Li Jingran could also reduce his concern.

Li Jingran’s eyes darkened. “Xu Yanzhi is also a son. He should have stayed by my side.”

“But you’re busy with work, so you don’t have time to take care of him.”Xu Wanwan had already thought of a response. “Only by letting Yanzhi stay by my side can you experience the warmth of a family.”

“Can you and that man give Yan Zhi a Home?”Li Jingran’s thin lips curled into a mocking smile. “Only by having you stay can you give Xu Yanzhi a real home.”

Xu Wanwan clenched her fists by her side and said patiently, “Li Jingran, as you can see, Yan Zhi really doesn’t need you.”

“Just because he doesn’t need me now doesn’t mean he won’t need me in the future.”

Li Jingran said in a low voice, “What right do you have to deprive him of his right to Father’s Love?”

Xu Wanwan was stunned.

She admitted that she was indeed inferior to Li Jingran in terms of negotiation.

After a few words, she was completely at a disadvantage.

Li Jingran snorted coldly and said in an imposing manner, “I don’t believe that the status and power of that man can’t be compared to mine. He can’t give me the conditions that I can offer Xu Yanzhi.”

“If you don’t want to stay and insist on fighting for custody, do you think that you can compete with that man?”

These words were very realistic. What Li Jingran said was exactly what she had been troubled about all this time.

“Then what do you want us to do? To see me separated from Yanzhi’s mother and son, to see him unhappy in an unfamiliar environment, is that what you want?”

“As his father, even if you don’t have any feelings for him, you should be hoping that he will get better and better, right?”

“Of course.”Li Jingran completely took the initiative and said directly, “The environment can be adapted, and the rules can be changed. Give me a month, and I will make Xu Yanzhi willingly agree with me.”

Xu Wanwan frowned slightly. “You mean, we have to stay here for a month?”

Li Jingran nodded.

Xu Wanwan changed her sitting position and tried her best to maintain a calm tone. “I have my own work too. I don’t have time to waste here.”

“I’ll bear any losses caused by your work during this period of time.”Li Jingran had the ability to say such words, and he also had a way to make Xu Wanwan not dare to refuse.

“If Yanzhi doesn’t approve of you after a month, will you let us leave?”Xu Wanwan asked in return.

Li Jingran pondered for a few seconds. “Yes.”

But such a thing would never happen.

Xu Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief. It had only been a month. How could Li Jingran replace Gu Jinshen in Little Treasure’s heart.
