Mr. Yan, Madam Bai Yueguang has also returned to China.

Yan Wenzhou's eyes darkened a bit, "You can announce to the public that you are an adopted son first. As for terminating the adoption relationship... you should ask your mother's opinion first."

Terminating the adoption relationship and completely separating Yu Zeqiu from the Yan family can indeed minimize the impact of this incident on Jiayi.

Yu Zeqiu clenched his palms, "I thought... you and my mother both regretted adopting me."

Yan Wenzhou stood up and patted his shoulder, "Xiaoqiu, no matter what, you will always be our son."

In the villa, Yu Wei flipped through the photo albums of the children from childhood to adulthood. As the eldest son, Xiao Qiu was always around his younger siblings.

In recent years, she and Yan Wenzhou have been very busy with work, and they don't have much time for the children on weekdays. Xiaoqiu, the older brother, has been silently taking care of his younger brothers and sisters.

In the photo, each of them is smiling so happily.

From a skinny and wizened child to a sunny, confident and cheerful boy, and then to a big boy with warm eyes, his growth is recorded in the photo album.

From the time he entered high school, the number of group photos gradually decreased. Until he studied abroad, there was not even a single group photo for a year.

This child knows everything in his heart. No matter how many years have passed, he is still so afraid of becoming a burden to others.

Yu Wei looked at the photos taken when he graduated from college. Unknowingly, he was already so old.

When Yan Wenzhou returned home, he saw her looking at the photo album in a daze, so he walked behind her and took the photo album aside.

Yu Wei came back to her senses and looked at him with a smile, "When did you come back?"

Yan Wenzhou looked a little tired, "I just came back from Xiaoqiu."

"Because of what was reported in the news?"

Yan Wenzhou nodded, "In a moment, the group will issue a statement announcing that Xiaoqiu is the adopted son of the Yan family."

"fair enough."

Yan Wenzhou sat next to her and looked at her gently, "Although the news has been suppressed, it will definitely have some impact on Jiayi. He means to terminate the adoption relationship."

Yu Wei was stunned for a moment. If the adoption relationship was terminated at this time, he would definitely not return to the Wen family, and he would no longer have anything to do with the Yan family. Then in the future he...could he want to go alone?

Yan Wenzhou put his arms around her shoulders, with a hint of helplessness in his voice, "It was you who decided to adopt him in the first place, and it's up to you to make this decision now."

After Yan Jiayi answered Yu Zeqiu's call, she did not return to the villa, but went to the apartment to find him.

It was getting dark outside. She was holding the small cake she bought on the road and unlocked the lock with her fingerprint. The light at the entrance sensed someone coming in and turned on.

The rest of the place was dark, and the figures on the sofa could be vaguely seen.

Yan Jiayi turned on the light and saw Yu Zeqiu lying on the sofa with a very pale face. She threw away the cake, rushed over and patted his cheek, "Brother!"

Seeing that he didn't respond, Yan Jiayi called his name in a panic, "Yu Zeqiu!"

She stretched out her hand tremblingly, wanting to explore his breath. The next second, her hand was held by someone. Yu Zeqiu opened his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Nuan Nuan?"

Yan Jiayi rushed over and hugged him tightly.

Yu Zeqiu patted her back comfortingly, "I'm a little tired, I just fell asleep, don't worry."

Yan Jiayi hugged him tighter, tears sliding down her cheeks and soaking his shirt.

Her body was trembling slightly, but Yu Zeqiu just held her quietly.

Yan Jiayi tried hard to hold back her tears, but she couldn't control them.

She thought she could keep pretending as if nothing had happened, but when she saw that he had his eyes closed and couldn't wake up no matter how much he screamed, just like the nightmares she had had countless times, she could no longer pretend.

When she was tired of crying, Yu Zeqiu wiped the tears on her cheeks and said, "Stop crying. If you cry again, you will look ugly."

Yan Jiayi looked at him aggrievedly, "You clearly said that I am beautiful no matter what."

"But I don't like to see you crying." Yu Zeqiu rubbed her cheek, "We look best when we are smiling."

Yan Jiayi got up from him and then remembered the cake she had thrown away. She ran over and found that the cake had been overturned and the small chocolate doll on it had been broken.

His eyes couldn't help but turn a little red.

Yu Zeqiu followed over and picked up the cake. Seeing the aggrieved look on her face, he rubbed the top of her hair and said, "It's still early, the cake shop shouldn't be closed yet. Shall we go buy another one?"

Yan Jiayi nodded.

When the two of them rushed to the cake shop, there was still the last cake left, but it had already been reserved. Yu Zeqiu went over to communicate with the clerk.

After a while, he came over with a cake.

On the pink strawberry cake, there was a pair of little dolls hugging each other. Seeing them hugging each other tightly, Yan Jiayi finally smiled, but it was a bit sad.

Yu Zeqiu also looked at the two little dolls hugging each other, somewhat lost in thought.

……

The next afternoon, Yu Wei went to the apartment to look for Yu Zeqiu and found that there were many things belonging to Yan Jiayi in the apartment. There were green plants on the windowsill, a row of cartoon dolls on the sofa, and several comic books on the coffee table. Magazines, and a few packs of snacks.

The originally deserted apartment finally had a little more life.

Yu Wei saw that Yu Zeqiu had lost some weight and asked with some worry: "Have you been feeling unwell lately?"

"It's a little bit occasionally, it doesn't matter."

Looking at his bloodless face, Yu Wei said helplessly: "Why are you trying to be tough on me? I know your physical condition better than you do. Nuannuan School will have its winter vacation soon. How many days will you go home then? , the whole family will spend the New Year together.”

Yu Zeqiu's eyes paused.

"Xiao Qiu, since I adopted you, you are my child." Yu Wei looked at him gently, "If you do something wrong, your mother is also responsible, but I don't regret adopting you."

After a pause, Yu Wei said: "So, I can't terminate the adoption relationship with you now. If... you are destined to leave us in the future, your father and I still hope to send you away as parents."

Tears continued to slide down his cheeks. Yu Zeqiu looked at her apologetically, "Mom, thank you and dad for being willing to accept me."

Yu Wei's eyes were red and she looked at him with a smile, "Xiao Qiu, not only Nuan Nuan, you are also the treasure that your parents hold in their hands. If you do something wrong, your parents will not be willing to kick you out no matter how angry they are. "

Thinking of Yan Jiayi crying against his heart, Yu Zeqiu's heart clenched together, "Mom, I want to do an operation."
