Yu Anwan remained silent, obediently eating her meal with her head down.
The atmosphere during breakfast was quite pleasant.
After breakfast, despite the light rain outside the small courtyard, it didn’t hinder their travel plans at all.
Yu Anwan and Yu Dabao held an umbrella, while Yu Xiaobao, who didn’t need to walk, was carried by Wen Jin as they headed towards the car outside.
Cai Shufang followed them and prepared many of Yu Anwan’s favorite side dishes, which she had marinated in advance.
Wen Jin’s trunk was filled with various items.
Cai Shufang nodded as she saw the family of four getting into the car and instructed, “Drive safely, and let me know when you arrive in Jiang City. And whenever you have time, come back for a visit.”
“I understand, Grandma. Please take care.” Yu Anwan and Cai Shufang waved goodbye.
Yu Xiaobao and Yu Dabao also waved and said their goodbyes to Cai Shufang.
“Great-grandma, goodbye,” Yu Dabao said.
“Great-grandma, take care. I’ll miss you a lot, and I’ll call you,” Yu Xiaobao added.
“Alright, alright.” Cai Shufang smiled and nodded.
Wen Jin gave a nod of acknowledgment and then closed the car window. He started the engine and drove in the direction of Jiang City.
Throughout the journey, Yu Anwan avoided looking at Wen Jin and instead gazed out of the car window at the passing scenery.
In the back seat, the two children, Xiaobao and Dabao, chatted away. As they continued their conversation, Yu Xiaobao eventually fell asleep in her safety seat.
Yu Dabao glanced at her, said nothing, and then lowered his head to check his phone.
He had received a message on WeChat from Wen Zhanyan.
Wen Zhanyan asked, “Have you returned yet? I’m at my uncle’s friend’s house, and Dad has someone keeping an eye on my uncle.” Wen Jin had his suspicions.
Yu Dabao replied, “We’re on the way back to Jiang City.”
Wen Zhanyan said, “Great-grandfather will be arriving in Jiang City tomorrow.
He’s a very shrewd person, so we need to find a way to bring him back.”
Yu Dabao replied, “We can’t.”
Wen Zhanyan fell silent. Indeed, there was no way to change the situation now.
Wen Jin’s suspicions meant that Wen Zhanyan and Yu Dabao had to be extremely cautious in every step they took. Any misstep could easily be detected by Wen Jin.
Yu Dabao said, “Have Uncle take you to the Wen family. The most dangerous place can also be the safest!”
Wen Zhanvan replied, “I understand.”
At least for now, Wen Jin would not suspect that anything was amiss with them under his watchful eye.
The two of them didn’t exchange any more words and went offline quickly.
Yu Dabao quietly stowed away his phone.
Wen Zhanyan looked up at Wen Ye.
Wen Ye felt a shiver run down his spine under Wen Zhanyan’s gaze. He had come to realize that he could accurately distinguish between Wen Zhanyan and Yu Dabao. The two were fundamentally different individuals.
Compared to Wen Zhanyan, Wen Ye still held a greater fear.
“Wen Zhanyan, what are you planning to do? You scared me there! My heart hasn’t been in great shape lately!” Wen Ye nervously patted his chest.
Covering up one massive lie required countless more lies.
It was truly terrifying.
Wen Zhanyan stared seriously at Wen Ye and said, “Take me back to the Wen family and get Dabao out.”
“I was just joking…”
Wen Jin had grown tired of sneaking around under his nose.
“I’m not joking. If you fail, you can go to South Africa while I stay in Jiang City. If you succeed, I’ll cover your side financially,” Wen Zhanyan said without changing his expression.
Wen Ye felt tempted.
It was a matter of life and death, and he thought it was worth taking a risk.
“Really?” Wen Ye sought confirmation.
Wen Zhanyan nodded.
“Deal!” Wen Ye responded decisively.
Wen Zhanyan didn’t say anything more. He lowered his gaze, concealing his thoughts effectively.
It might be a dangerous gamble, but the chances of being discovered were minimal.
Why be afraid?
At the same time, Wen Jin had already exited the highway and was heading straight for the Wen family’s location.
Yu Anwan noticed this immediately. She furrowed her brows in response. Before she could say anything, Wen Jin’s phone vibrated.
Wen Jin glanced at his phone and picked up the call. Yu Anwan held back the words she was about to utter.
Wen Jin’s Bluetooth earpiece blinked, but he remained silent.
Yu Anwan had no interest in eavesdropping on Wen Jin’s conversation.
On the other end of Wen Jin’s phone, the bodyguard spoke respectfully, “President Wen, Second Young Master indeed brought the child home.
However, later in the evening, someone took the child away. I checked the license plate, and it was indeed a friend of Second Young Master.”
Wen Jin nodded in acknowledgment.
“However, we didn’t see the child’s face. The child has been wearing a mask and a hat the entire time,” the bodyguard added quickly.
Wen Jin didn’t respond.
He had ordered someone to follow Wen Ye, but he suspected that Wen Ye might know something.
However, the bodyguard’s account left no room for further speculation in Wen Jin’s mind.
Regardless of whether Wen Ye was the Wen family’s illegitimate child, his identity was clear. People who interacted with Wen Ye were typically wealthy and influential. Any incident involving an illegitimate child had to be kept discreet, or else it would attract paparazzi attention.
Therefore, it made sense.
Wen Jin no longer dwelled on this matter and simply let it go.
Afterward, Wen Jin ended the call.
Yu Anwan watched as Wen Jin hung up and then turned her gaze directly towards him.
“Do you have something to tell me?” Wen Jin asked indifferently.
“Wen Jin, we are heading in the direction of the Wen family’s residence,” Yu Anwan responded directly.
Wen Jin nodded without denying it. He didn’t see anything wrong with bringing Wen Zhanyan home, and there was nothing inappropriate about bringing Yu Anwan along.
At the very least, even without the paternity test results, Wen Jin was convinced that Yu Xiaobao was his daughter.
Therefore, it was only natural for her to accompany him to the Wen family’s residence.
Yu Anwan saw Wen Jin’s straightforwardness and sneered. “Wen Jin, I only agreed to go with you to pick up Grandfather. I didn’t agree to go to the Wen family.”
Wen Jin narrowed his eyes at Yu Anwan.
However, Wen Jin’s response was direct, “Grandfather’s flight is tomorrow morning. You can stay at the Wen family’s residence. It’s more convenient for us to go directly to the airport.”
In any case, there was no way Yu Anwan could return to her place.
Moreover, Yu Anwan and Wen Jin lived in different directions, so Wen Jin wouldn’t go out of his way to pick her up.
Besides, Wen Jin didn’t see any reason to do so.
“Wen Jin, I won’t go to the Wen family. I’m taking Xioabao home. I can meet you at the airport tomorrow,” Yu Anwan firmly reiterated her position and showed no intention of yielding..
