“I don’t know.” Yu Dabao didn’t want to pay attention to Yu Xiaobao.
Yu Xiaobao felt even more aggrieved, and as Yu Dabao remained silent with red-rimmed eyes, she was on the verge of crying.
Yu Dabao wanted to comfort her, but he wasn’t sure how.
The issue of procedures was something Yu Dabao didn’t want to discuss anymore. However, when it came to matters of adult emotions, he felt utterly clueless.
After all, he was just a minor, what did he know?
The more he pondered, the more frustrated Yu Dabao became.
Meanwhile, Yu Xiaobao had already grabbed her phone and dialed Wen
Zhanyan’s number. She cried as she spoke, “Brother Zhanyan, Daddy, and Mommy have had a falling out. Does this mean we’ll lose Daddy and Mommy?” Wen Zhanyan furrowed his brows. This news seemed to come out of nowhere.
Just recently, Wen Jin and Yu Anwan were getting along well. Because they were together, Wen Zhanyan had been patiently waiting in the mansion, anticipating news about their marriage.
Yet, unexpectedly, he received a sudden and shocking call from Yu Xiaobao.
“Mommy has brought Uncle back. It must be because she and Daddy broke up. What should we do, Brother Zhanyan? I don’t want Daddy and Mommy to separate.” Yu Xiaobao’s young face wore an even sadder expression. “Brother
Zhanyan, I don’t want Daddy and Mommy to be apart.”
She cried while she spoke, and her words came between sobs.
Her sense of grievance was palpable.
The constant buzzing in Wen Zhanyan’s ears from Yu Xiaobao’s distress was giving him a headache. He wanted to console her, but it seemed impossible to do so effectively.
Finally, Yu Dabao couldn’t bear it any longer. He directly took Yu Xiaobao’s phone and glared at her. Yu Xiaobao didn’t say anything.
However, her bright, grape-like eyes remained fixed on Yu Dabao. Yu Dabao couldn’t be bothered to engage further. “It’s me.”
Wen Zhanyan asked, “Who is this Uncle that Xiaobao mentioned?” Yu Dabao was straightforward. “A man Mommy has feelings for.” Wen Zhanyan then inquired awkwardly, “What about Daddy?”
Yu Dabao couldn’t help but emit a short, wry laugh. “Even when the opportunity is right in front of him, he can’t manage it. I think we just forget about it.”
Wen Zhanyan was left speechless.
Surprisingly, he truly had no response and couldn’t refute the situation.
After all, Wen Zhanyan had never expected Wen Jin to be so useless. After being Wen Jin’s son for many years, Wen Zhanyan believed that Wen Jin’s resolute personality would have allowed him to deal with these three annoying third wheels swiftly.
Many things should have naturally fallen into place.
But now, he was intercepted midway?
What was happening?
“So, what should we do?” After a long pause, Wen Zhanyan asked the same question as Yu Xiaobao.
“I don’t know!” Yu Dabao snorted.
Wen Zhanyan remained silent.
Seeing that Wen Zhanyan didn’t respond, Yu Dabao continued bluntly, “At most, within two months. If Wen Jin can’t resolve things with Mommy by then, Mommy will take me and Xioabao back to London.”
For many years, Yu Anwan’s focus had been on London.
The reason for her return to Jiang City had been Wen Zhanyan.
Everyone understood the current situation. Wen Zhanyan knew Yu Anwan’s identity. If Yu Anwan couldn’t get Wen Zhanyan back, it would be a dilemma.
She might as well give up temporarily and not make things difficult for herself.
Two months would be ample time for Yu Anwan to put Han Qingqiu’s unfinished dream back on track.
As long as there was stability, it wouldn’t be a major problem whether Yu Anwan remained in Jiang City or not.
If Yu Dabao remembered correctly, Yu Anwan’s next two or three surgeries would take place two months later, and she wouldn’t be in Jiang City at that time.
Hence, leaving was an inevitable choice.
However, he and Xiaobao could not be separated from Yu Anwan.
Wen Zhanyan understood his words, and he fell silent. After a while, he gently spoke, “I want to stay with Mommy.”
“No chance,” Yu Dabao replied bluntly.
Wen Zhanyan remained silent, and a quiet pause settled at both ends of the phone.
“Is it impossible?” Wen Zhanyan asked again quickly.
Yu Dabao shook his head. “It’s impossible unless something irreversible happens, and Mommy has to beg Wen Jin. Otherwise, it looks like this situation will remain as it is.”
Considering Yu Anwan’s personality, she would never resort to begging Wen Jin for help.
Wen Zhanyan found himself in a state of worry. Suddenly, he began, “Dabao…”
“Stop thinking about it. It’ll only make things messier,” Yu Dabao, understanding Wen Zhanyan’s concerns about their relationship as triplets, advised.
Wen Zhanyan fell into complete silence.
In the end, neither of them spoke further.
It wasn’t until Wen Zhanyan hung up the phone that he cursed Wen Jin in his mind numerous times.
Yu Dabao glanced at the disconnected phone, his brow furrowed, and he looked noticeably more mature.
“Dabao, I don’t want things to be like this.” Yu Xiaobao gazed at Yu Dabao with a pitiful expression.
“Go to sleep!” Yu Dabao kept it concise.
Feeling wronged, Yu Xiaobao was tucked under the blanket by Yu Dabao, unable to resist. She could only peer out with her big eyes, and Yu Dabao left her with the sound of the bedroom door closing.
“Sob, sob, sob… Dabao is quite stern.”
At that moment, in the living room, Yu Anwan politely poured a glass of water for Wen Yan. Wen Yan accepted it and took a sip without haste.
However, Wen Yan showed no intention of leaving. Placing the glass on the table, he inquired, “Is there a guest room here?”
“Indeed,” Yu Anwan responded after a brief pause.
“Yes.” Wen Yan acknowledged. “I’ll stay here tonight. I have a flight at 5 AM, and this location is closer to the airport.”
Yu Anwan furrowed her brows, not expecting Wen Yan to be so straightforward. Wen Yan had already stood up and started walking toward her. His approach lacked any intimidation, he merely gazed at her.
Yu Anwan remained motionless, indicating her lack of objection.
Wen Yan stopped right in front of her, maintaining an appropriate distance. Despite their intimacy, the closeness did not feel intrusive.
They stood close.
Yu Anwan could hear Wen Yan’s voice.
“It’s just a guest room, so don’t let your imagination wander. Besides, we’ve lived together before,” Wen Yan stated plainly.
Yu Anwan fell silent. Her mind meandered, remembering the time when Wen Yan had accidentally ended up staying. London had been unexpectedly hit by heavy snow, leading to inconvenient travel conditions.
They didn’t think much of it back then and maintained a peaceful coexistence in this very house.
But now…
There didn’t appear to be anything wrong, yet there was an unspoken discomfort.
Ultimately, Yu Anwan’s passivity prevailed.
“Oh,” she acknowledged, indicating the direction of the guest room. “The first room on the second floor is the guest room.”
Wen Yan nodded and suddenly approached Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan tensed momentarily, instinctively resisting. She wasn’t sure what Wen Yan was up to. However, Wen Yan simply lowered his head, observing her face. Then, he extended his hand as if caressing her skin.
Before Yu Anwan could react, Wen Yan’s words reached her, “Don’t move, there’s an eyelash on your face.”
His words stunned Yu Anwan once again. Then, Yu Anwan did not move at all. Wen Yan’s fingertips just stuck to Yu Anwan’s face..
