Xu Yansang never expected that one day, she would see Zhou Muchuan coming to her company downstairs to find her.

She stood at the door of the company, looking at the man ten meters away.

He seemed a little haggard and thinner than before. I don’t know if it was because the company’s affairs made him overwhelmed, but in any case, there was a decadent air about him.

His clothes were neatly put on, but they couldn't hide his fatigue.

Xu Yansang noticed that his shirt collar was dirty, but she just glanced at it and then looked away. She just felt it was a little strange. During the two years she had been married to Zhou Muchuan, he was always full of energy, neat and clean, and she had never seen him like this before.

What happened?

However, these thoughts only flashed through her mind and passed away. She had long since let go of the past and had no curiosity at all about the man in front of her.

She just stood there calmly and said lightly, "Mr. Zhou, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Zhou Muchuan looked at her. She was wearing an off-white professional skirt today, revealing her fair and delicate calves. On her feet were a pair of high heels of the same color. Unlike the two years when she had been with him, when she was always sloppy and unkempt, her face was flushed, her hair was lightly tied up, and her whole body seemed to be glowing.

He actually didn't know why he came here.

After returning home last night, he took off the clothes he had worn all day and told Qin Sisi that he would wear that shirt the next day and asked her to wash and dry it by hand.

Unexpectedly, Qin Sisi seemed to have suffered a great humiliation, saying that he treated her as a nanny and asked her to do housework even when she was pregnant.

God have mercy on him. Since he has been with Qin Sisi, he has never told her to do any work.

Just this once, just to ask her to wash a piece of clothes. He was too tired recently, the company always had inexplicable problems, and some messy past events that should have been resolved long ago popped up to bother him, all things needed him to deal with, but there was no one around to share the burden.

And he is about to marry Qin Sisi.

The more he got along with Qin Sisi, the more he felt that the filter of his youth was too deep. The Qin Sisi he loved was a pure, gentle, fairy-like girl, not the Qin Sisi who slept next to him, didn't even help him wash a piece of his clothes, and didn't take care of anything at home.

The more he compared, the better he felt about Xu Yansang.

In the past, Xu Yansang would keep the household in order, and she would take care of all the affairs of her mother and sister. He only had to worry about work, and she was in charge of the household. Every morning, she would fold the clean clothes and put them beside his bed. Every night, she would ask him what time he would get off work and prepare a bowl of hot porridge for him in advance.

She always felt sorry for him drinking too much at social events and reminded him to take care of his stomach.

Whenever he was upset, she would gently massage his temples, without saying a word, and just accompany him silently.

But before, why did he feel that Xu Yansang was so nagging and troublesome?

Some things, after you lose them, you suddenly realize that they have become a habit.

Zhou Muchuan looked at Xu Yansang, moved his lips, and said in a hoarse voice, "The day after tomorrow, I'm getting married."

Xu Yansang was stunned. "Did you come here specially to tell me this news? You want to invite me to your wedding? Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry, I don't want to go."

Zhou Muchuan's heart seemed to be stuffed with cotton, tightly blocked. He pursed his lips and wanted to say, if you are willing, then come back to me.

He wouldn't mind that she had been with other men in the past, and as for what happened three years ago, he could pretend that nothing had happened and never mention it again in his life.

They can live a normal and stable life like an ordinary couple, with him taking care of the outside affairs and her taking care of the inside affairs.

But when he thought of Qin Sisi, the light of his youth, she was already pregnant. If he didn't want her now, what would she do in the future?

I hesitated again.

Xu Yansang didn’t know what Zhou Muchuan was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely laugh.

She had finally broken free from that shackle-like marriage and had her own career and life. But the things he missed were exactly what she regretted the most.

Who gave him the confidence that as long as he was willing to accept her, she would definitely come back?

She didn't have much patience with Zhou Muchuan anymore. She looked at him and said, "If you came here specifically to tell me this, then I understand, Mr. Zhou. I'm busy. Goodbye."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to go back to the company. There was no hesitation in her back. Zhou Muchuan quickly called her, "Wait a minute! Yansang, I want to ask you, after the divorce... do you regret it?"

Xu Yansang paused and turned to look at him with amusement, "Zhou Muchuan, don't tell me you regret it."

She was so angry that she didn't even have the false politeness and called him by his name. When they divorced, he acted like he was willing to do anything for true love, but in the end, it only took a few months?

If he persisted to the end, even if he cheated on her, she would respect him as a man, admire his courage, and sigh that he and Qin Sisi were truly in love.

As a result, this is it?

Zhou Muchuan saw the mockery in her eyes, his face changed, and he said coldly, "How could I regret it? Xu Yansang, I just came to tell you that thanks to your help, I can finally be together with Sisi."

Xu Yansang curled her lips, "So that's how it is. You're welcome. I'm very grateful to you for making me realize the reality. But now, it's all in the past. There's no need to mention it again."

After she said that, she turned around and walked into the company without even looking at Zhou Muchuan.

Zhou Muchuan looked at her from behind, his expression gloomy. Thank him? Thank him for divorcing her?

Is it really all over for her?

He hung his head and returned to the car in a daze. It took him a long time to finally drive away.

Shortly after he left, Qin Sisi slowly walked out from a nearby corner, her little face full of anger, and she was pinching the corner of her clothes tightly. She didn't expect that Brother Muchuan would really come to find Xu Yansang!

She just noticed that something was wrong with him when he left the house in the morning, and was worried, so she found a taxi and followed him.

Unexpectedly, he came to find Xu Yansang!

What did he mean by those words?

Did he regret divorcing Xu Yansang? After living with her for four months, he found that she was very different from Xu Yansang and began to miss Xu Yansang?

Qin Sisi bit her lips hard, tears rolling down her eyes, "Brother Muchuan, how can you be worthy of me!"

As for Xu Yansang, whether Zhou Muchuan will get married tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, she has no idea. What she cares about is that Liang's mother finally sent a message saying that the adoption procedures have been completed and asked her to go there tomorrow to sign a few signatures and then she can take Jasmine back.

Xu Yansang was so happy that she went straight to the mall after work, bought a lot of girl's things, and went back to decorate her room nicely.

She placed a retractable small bed next to the original big bed so that two people could sleep in it without feeling crowded. She also changed all the sets of furniture and curtains in the room to pink, a color that little girls would like. She placed her carefully selected dolls at the head of the bed, as well as a desk, computer, desk lamp, and various books.

She wanted Jasmine to feel at home as soon as she came in.

Fu Zhenzhuo stood at the door and watched her struggle, and asked, "Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?"

Xu Yansang smiled and refused, "No, tomorrow is a workday, don't delay your work, I'll let Zhao Zhao go, he wants to be the godfather of the child!"

When Fu Zhenzhuo heard the word "godfather", his expression suddenly became serious and he tried to argue, "Really speaking, I am the father, right?"

"Ah?" Xu Yansang was stunned. She didn't expect him to be so entangled in this. After thinking for a while, she said, "If you don't mind, of course you can be the father. Zhao Zhao is the godfather and you are the biological father. It's perfect."

Fu Zhenzhuo's expression eased, and he looked as if he was seriously weighing the pros and cons. "Anyway, someone like me will never have children in the future. Raising your adopted child as my own will also provide me with an extra layer of security for my retirement."

Xu Yansang didn't expect that he had thought so deeply about it. It was a bit funny. There are people who want to be a father so eagerly?

Unexpectedly, Fu Zhenzhuo was serious. He looked at her and said, "So, if we take Jasmine back, I want you and I to pay for half of the expenses. And you have to let her call me dad, okay?"

Xu Yansang thought about it and felt that it was nothing, so she nodded and said, "I'll ask Jasmine what she thinks later. If she is willing, I will agree."

Fu Zhenzhuo was finally satisfied.

The next day, Xu Yansang took a day off and drove to the welfare home with Zhao Zhao.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the yard, she saw the panicked Liang's mother. She hurriedly got out of the car, grabbed Liang's mother, and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Mother Liang was at a loss as to what to do. When she saw Xu Yansang, her eyes suddenly turned red. She held her hand and said, "Xiao Xu, you came just in time. I was looking for Jasmine. I don't know what happened to this child. She suddenly ran away without saying a word and I couldn't find her anywhere!"

Xu Yansang's heart suddenly rose up, and she hurriedly asked, "Why did she run away? Was she wronged in some way?"

Mother Liang was also puzzled. "Moli is a good child in the welfare home. She gets along well with everyone and no one bullies her. Oh, by the way, she wrote a refusal to adopt her on your adoption documents."

As Liang's mother spoke, she took out a piece of paper. It was the adoption consent form for Jasmine. In the adoption opinion section, Jasmine had written the four words "refuse to adopt" in a neat and neat manner.

Xu Yansang's heart skipped a beat. Before she applied for the adoption, she had asked Jasmine's opinion. Only after Jasmine was willing to be adopted did she go through the complicated process. Over the past year or so, no matter what difficulties she encountered, she insisted on adopting Jasmine. In addition to the fact that she wanted a child, there was another most important reason: the look in Jasmine's eyes when she looked at her was full of expectations, as if she held her destiny in her hands.

But when it comes to the final step, Jasmine refuses to be adopted?

Then all her previous efforts would be in vain!

Xu Yansang quickly asked Liang's mother, "Did she say before where she wanted to go? Also, who was the last person to see her at the welfare home?"

The most important thing now is to find Jasmine and find out what happened. She will not let Jasmine suffer any injustice for no reason.

Mother Liang thought for a moment, and suddenly slapped her forehead, "I remember now, Jasmine said before that she wanted to go to a shopping mall in a big city, but she is alone and penniless, so she can't go to a big city!"

After a pause, she seemed to remember something and said, "She seemed to have talked to Chen Qiao before she left. I'll go call Chen Qiao over and ask him!"

Mother Liang quickly brought Chen Qiao over.

Xu Yansang remembered this little girl. The last time she came, she asked him expectantly if he could adopt her as well.

Xu Yansang was unwilling to assume ill intentions about a child, but this was just too much of a coincidence. Chen Qiao just happened to want to be adopted by her, and Moli just happened to refuse to adopt him. She didn't know where she ran off to, and she was still with Chen Qiao before she left.

When Chen Qiao saw Xu Yansang, he was stunned for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it back and lowered his head.

Mother Liang asked anxiously, "Chen Qiao, tell me, did Jasmine stay with you before she left? What did she tell you? Did she tell you where she was going?"

Chen Qiao lowered her head, looked at her toes, and said, "She said she was going to live in a big city soon, and asked me to stay away from her. She doesn't want to be friends with poor people."

Whether it was Liang's mother, Xu Yansang, or Zhao Zhao, they were all stunned when they heard this.

Jasmine is a very likable child. Not only Xu Yansang likes her, but even Liang's mother likes her too.

This child is sweet-spoken and hardworking. In the welfare home, many children like to hang around her.

How could Jasmine say such a thing?

Mother Liang looked at Chen Qiao, frowned, and spoke in a much more severe tone, "Chen Qiao, tell me the truth, where did Jasmine go? Jasmine left suddenly and refused to adopt her. Is it related to you?"

It was not too difficult for the welfare home to replace the adoption procedures for a little girl. All the children in the orphanage were envious of the fact that Jasmine was adopted by someone from a big city, so Mother Liang first suspected that Chen Qiao wanted to snatch Jasmine's adoptive family.

Xu Yansang originally thought so, but when she saw Chen Qiao's sudden hurt look when Liang's mother spoke, she knew that this was not true.

She said to Liang's mother, "Let me say a few words to her."

Mother Liang looked at Chen Qiao with disappointment and took a step back.

Chen Qiao saw the look in Liang's mother's eyes, bit her lip, and lowered her head with some grievance.

Xu Yansang saw this, sighed softly, squatted in front of Chen Qiao, and asked softly, "Was Jasmine really with you before she left?"

Chen Qiao lowered his eyes and nodded.

Xu Yansang asked again, "I believe you didn't do anything to Jasmine. Can you tell me what you talked about?"

Chen Qiao bit her lip, tears falling without warning, she choked and said, "I didn't want to talk to her, I was just sitting there playing by myself, but she insisted on getting close to me, and said that I didn't know what I was capable of, and said... that now that she has found a big shot, she will be the daughter of a rich man in the city in the future... and also said... and also said that someone as poor as you is only worthy of adopting a poor child like me, and you are not worthy of adopting her at all..."

Xu Yansang's eyes widened in disbelief, "This is...is this what Jasmine said?"
