Jiang Sinian had just seen off a friend when he heard a little kid's childish voice calling "Uncle Jiang".

After greeting Xu Xiu with a smile, he squatted down and talked seriously with the little kid about what happened in kindergarten. The little kid also curiously asked him about what happened in college.

Xiaodouding likes chatting with Jiang Sinian very much.

Because he never treats himself as a naive child, he will ask his questions seriously and answer his questions seriously.

The two people who were chatting enthusiastically were interrupted by the notification sound of Jiang Sinian's mobile phone.

He took it out and took a look, and Xu Xiu immediately said:

"Xiao Rang, let's not disturb Uncle Jiang anymore. Let's say goodbye to him."

Just as Xiao Douding was about to say goodbye, Jiang Sinian put away his phone and said:

"It's okay, it's not a big deal, it's already been resolved."

Seeing that both the big and small were looking straight at him, he unconsciously explained a few words:

"A friend of mine was getting divorced and was fighting for custody. I recommended a lawyer to her, and after mediation, the two have now reached a settlement."

The words "fight for custody" made Xu Xiu's heart jump suddenly, and she subconsciously asked:

"Would you mind telling me more about this?"

Jiang Sinian looked at her slightly worried expression and his eyes moved slightly, as if he realized something.

But he didn't show any sign of it, nor did he ask any further questions. He just introduced it with a normal expression.

"They both wanted a child, but the woman had no job and no source of income for many years, and the man's family was relatively well-off and he had a good job, so the court awarded the child to the man at first."

Xu Xiu couldn't help but compare himself with Shen Xingyi.

Although she has a source of income now, and earns quite a bit compared to ordinary people, she is definitely no match for a wealthy family like Shen Xingyi.

"Then how did they reconcile?"

Xu Xiu couldn't help but ask again.

Jiang Sinian patiently explained:

"After the lawyer's mediation, the two talked again in private and reached an agreement."

Xu Xiu nodded. Yes, he would have to have a good talk with Shen Xingyi in the end.

For a moment, Xu Xiu regretted returning to China.

If I had known earlier, I would have stayed in Country Y. At most I would have just endured the hardship with the little one for a while.

The reason why she decided to return to China was because she believed in the plot too much. After all, according to the plot, the original owner did a lot of evil things at that time, but Shen Xingyi did not stop her from seeing Xiao Douding.

Unfortunately, the plot has completely fallen apart since returning to China, and no one is following the original characters and plot.

Seeing Xu Xiu showing a melancholy and complicated look from time to time, Jiang Sinian took the initiative to ask:

"Is there anything I can help you with? Our law school is very famous and has handled many cases involving wealthy families."

Xu Xiu looked at him and saw that his expression had become much more serious, but his soft eyes still had a faint luster, which made people couldn't help but relax.

Xu Xiu knew that his little trick had been seen through, and he laughed dryly:

"Okay, I'll contact you if I need you."

The three of them were preparing to go back to the community together when a car happened to drive over from a distance.

"It's Dad."

The little kid had good eyesight and saw the license plate number, and recognized it as Shen Xingyi's car at the first sight.

Soon, the car stopped at the gate of the community.

Jiang Sinian glanced at the man who got out of the car, and then looked at Xu Xiu.

After confirming that she had no objection, he said tactfully:

"Then I'll go back first. Contact me anytime if you have anything."

Xu Xiu was preoccupied with something and just curled his lips to express his gratitude.

Jiang Sinian and Shen Xingyi said nothing, nodded slightly and left.

When only three people were left, Xu Xiu looked at Shen Xingyi with a serious expression:

"Let's talk about it after we go back first."

The little kid looked at his mom and dad in confusion, feeling that something was strange today.

*

Xu Xiu was not in the mood to cook today, so she planned to order takeout. Seeing her like this, Shen Xingyi directly asked his assistant to send over a table of private dishes.

Xu Xiu looked at the table full of delicacies and silently wondered, could this be the Hongmen Banquet?

However, Shen Xingyi is worthy of being a domineering president, and the standards for the Hongmen Banquet are quite high.

This Xing Zhuang restaurant is a long-established private restaurant, and it is said that it is difficult to order easily, so she must try it.

Xu Xiu served himself a large bowl of rice and started eating seriously.

When the little kid saw his mother's favorite scrambled eggs, he immediately stretched out his not-so-long arms, filled a spoon with them, and tremblingly handed it to Xu Xiu:

"Mom eat it."

"Thank you baby."

Shen Xingyi felt a little sad when watching the daily interactions between mother and son, and he turned his attention to the little kid.

I saw him pick up a few more vegetables with chopsticks.

Shen Xingyi's eyes lit up slightly, and he calmly pushed the bowl towards the little kid.

The direction of the chopsticks turned a corner and returned to Xu Xiu:

"Mom, eat more vegetables and don't be picky."

Seeing that his mother was only picking up the meat, he couldn't help but start to worry.

Oh, my mother is really ignorant. It is not okay for adults not to eat vegetables.

The little kid said such mature words with a cute face, which made Xu Xiu smile until his eyes narrowed:

"Okay, Mom, eat more vegetables."

The atmosphere between the two of them was warm and full of love, but Shen Xingyi's side was shrouded in dark clouds.

He silently took back the bowl, picked up a few vegetables and chewed them slowly.

After dinner, Xu Xiu sent the little kid back to his room and sat face to face with Shen Xingyi in the living room.

She thought for a moment and took the initiative to speak:

"Go ahead, you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a hissing sound coming from the bathroom.

"broken!"

Xu Xiu's face changed and he quickly stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

Sure enough, that water pipe started leaking again.

Shen Xingyi also followed, and looking at the pipe with water gushing out, he subconsciously prepared to call for help.

But Xu Xiu stopped him:

"No, just tighten it with a wrench."

This is not the first time there has been a water leak, and she has always been able to fix it herself before.

Shen Xingyi saw her pick up the wrench skillfully, rolled up his sleeves and half-knelt on the ground, taking the tool actively:

"I'll do it."

His upbringing wouldn't allow him to just stand there and watch.

Xu Xiu didn't pull it either. It was not a difficult thing anyway. It was just a matter of tightening it with a wrench.

She pointed to the location and told Shen Xingyi where to turn it.

But obviously, she overestimated the hands-on ability of a domineering boss who grew up in a wealthy family.

So the next second after Shen Xingyi took action, a fountain-like splash of water spurted out and the two of them were instantly soaked.

Xu Xiu exclaimed, and the two of them frantically tried to stop the splashing water, but unfortunately they couldn't stop it at all.

Shen Xingyi even tried to block the water spray with his hands.

But apart from changing the direction of the water and spraying it all towards Xu Xiu, it had no other effect.

Finally, Xu Xiu fumbled to close the main water valve, found a spare pipe and replaced it, and finally he successfully repaired it.

Unfortunately, both of them were soaked.

Shen Xingyi looked at his shirt that was completely wet, then at Xu Xiu's hair that was still dripping with water, and a rare look of shame appeared on his face.

He whispered an apology: "I'm sorry."

He was just afraid that he couldn't tighten it enough so he used more force, but he didn't intend to break it directly.
