Chapter 244: People Would Think It Was A Couple Quarreling!

After all, even without Wen Jin, Yu Anwan could have handled this matter very clearly.
Furthermore, Yu Anwan had no intention of staying in this kindergarten. She wasn’t afraid of anyone.
However, given Wen Jin’s attitude, Yu Anwan’s tone was far from polite. “President Wen, why are you involving yourself with me instead of accompanying Miss Lu? Aren’t you worried that Miss Lu might relapse or even attempt suicide again? She has attempted suicide many times, and there’s no guarantee that she can be saved every time. Your beloved may shatter just like that…”
As she spoke, Yu Anwan even made a gesture mimicking a broken heart. With that said, she continued to struggle, attempting to withdraw her hand from Wen Jin’s grip.
On the other hand, Wen Jin was straightforward. He applied a bit of force, firmly enveloping Yu Anwan’s hand within his palm. His slender fingers, with distinct knuckles, threaded through the gaps between Yu Anwan’s fingers and interlocked with them.
Yu Anwan furrowed her brows.
“She won’t,” Wen Jin’s voice sounded composed.
Yu Anwan heard her but didn’t respond.
After all, Yu Anwan understood Lu Nanxin well. Lu Nanxin might have engaged in many unconventional actions, but she cherished her life. To be with Wen Jin, Lu Nanxin would resort to any means to protect her own life. She was truly indestructible.
But did any of this concern Yu Anwan?
“Yu Anwan,” Wen Jin’s voice interrupted her contemplation.
Yu Anwan reluctantly looked up at Wen Jin, her tone not very pleasant. “What?” “If Xiaobao doesn’t want to attend this kindergarten, then you can transfer her to Zhanyan’s kindergarten,” Wen Jin said directly while gazing at Yu Anwan, a hint of deeper meaning in his lowered eyes.
Coincidentally, Wen Zhanyan didn’t dislike Yu Xiaobao. They shared the same father but had different mothers.
What mattered most was that Yu Xiaobao would be in the same kindergarten as Wen Zhanyan. In Wen Jin’s view, it would be almost impossible for Yu Anwan to escape from this situation.
Furthermore, Wen Zhanyan attended the top private kindergarten in Jiang City, a place where mere wealth couldn’t secure admission. The school had rigorous criteria for parents as well. Those who gained entry were undoubtedly at the pinnacle of Jiang City’s elite pyramid.
The Wen family was an exception. They could easily secure enrollment.
Wen Jin had an intuitive feeling that Yu Anwan would agree. After all, Yu Anwan only wanted the best for Yu Xiaobao. Yu Anwan probably couldn’t gain admission on her own, which was why she had settled for this kindergarten.
Therefore, Wen Jin believed that he had set the hook perfectly and was simply waiting for Yu Anwan to take the bait.
Wen Jin was confident that Yu Anwan would be utterly crushed at the next moment.
In such a situation, Yu Anwan sneered and spoke without any courtesy, “President Wen, who gave you such confidence?”
Wen Jin furrowed his brows.
With a smile that wasn’t a smile, Yu Anwan withdrew her hand and pointed it at Wen Jin’s chest. “I’m sorry, but I’m not interested.”
“Yu Anwan.” Wen Jin’s voice was a little deep.
He felt that Yu Anwan was trying to force him to do it the hard way.
“Wen Jin, I never like to ask others to do things. I prefer to do things myself. Even if I were genuinely interested in this kindergarten, I could enroll Xiaobao myself. There’s no need to trouble President Wen. Thank you,” Yu Anwan said calmly.
Her rejection was unequivocal.
Her attitude was deliberately nonchalant and dismissive.
After Yu Anwan finished speaking, she walked toward Yu Xiaobao without even acknowledging Wen Jin.
However, Wen Jin quickly and decisively intercepted Yu Anwan. “Yu Anwan, do you believe that with just a word from me, you won’t be able to get into any school in Jiang City?”
“Yes, I do,” Yu Anwan nodded, seemingly serious.
Wen Jin watched her with a composed expression, somewhat surprised by Yu Anwan’s straightforwardness.
But being so straightforward was either audacious or deceitful.
Soon, Yu Anwan reached out and pretended to brush non-existent dust off Wen Jin’s chest, her tone turning even more acerbic.
“President Wen, have you forgotten? In front of so many people, you like to play the role of a father and insist on acknowledging Xioabao as your daughter. If Xiaobao had no school to go to, where would President Wen’s face be?”
Yu Anwan wore a mischievous smile, but she didn’t spare any mercy in taking a jab at Wen Jin.
She then shrugged innocently.
Wen Jin couldn’t help but chuckle, amused by Yu Anwan’s antics.
Ignoring Wen Jin, Yu Anwan quickly caught up with Yu Xiaobao.
If Wen Jin wanted to follow along, so be it. This path wasn’t of Yu Anwan’s making, and there was no need to waste her energy trying to stop him.
Soon, Yu Anwan held Yu Xiaobao’s hand.
“Mommy, are you done talking with Daddy?” Yu Xiaobao asked softly.
Yu Anwan lowered her head and shot a glare at Yu Xiaobao. “Adults are talking. You shouldn’t be curious!”
“Oh…” Yu Xiaobao’s innocent voice drew out the syllables, making them elongated. “Mommy, I didn’t ask anything. You’re so nervous.”
Yu Anwan, flustered by her nervousness, couldn’t find a retort.
However, Yu Xiaobao decided to tease Yu Anwan further. “Mommy, are stalkers this bold these days?”
Who cared about quarreling with Wen Jin?
Yet, when she saw Yu Xiaobao’s playful expression and teasing gaze, Yu Anwan’s annoyance grew. She wanted to lash out at Yu Xiaobao but couldn’t bring herself to do it.
In the end, she had to swallow her frustration.
“Mommy, are you angry?” Yu Xiaobao quickly sensed it and hooked her arm around Yu Anwan’s.
Yu Anwan snorted.
“Mommy, I’m sorry…” Yu Xiaobao pleaded in a soft voice. But her grape-like eyes lacked genuine sincerity.
She was merely appeasing Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan had her pride and ignored Yu Xiaobao.
“Are you going to ignore me?” Yu Xiaobao felt wronged.
Yu Anwan remained silent.
This time, Yu Xiaobao lowered her head and allowed Yu Anwan to lead her. She stared at her toes, exuding an aura of extreme grievance.
Yu Anwan’s heart softened.
Before she could say anything, Wen Jin suddenly walked over and picked up Yu Xiaobao.
Yu Anwan was taken aback, as was Yu Xiaobao, but the latter reacted swiftly.
She instinctively hugged Wen Jin and nuzzled against his neck.
Before Yu Anwan could respond, Wen Jin’s voice sounded, “Did Mommy scold you?”
