Chereads / The Secret is out: Mr. Zhan is the Child's Crippled Father! / Chapter 38 - The Child Who Looks Exactly like An’an

Chapter 38 - The Child Who Looks Exactly like An’an

Instinctively, Tang Weiwei could sense Zhan Xiaoting emitting an extremely dangerous aura.

She was so frightened that she stepped back, but...

The car was only this big!

Soon, her entire body was pressed against the car door.

"Zhan Xiaoting, I'm warning you. Don't mess around..." Tang Weiwei looked at him warily.

Seeing her like this, Zhan Xiaoting really wanted to tease her.

"I asked you to get a divorce, but you insisted on staying in the Zhan family to be my wife. Even if I really did anything to you, it is only to fulfill the obligations of a husband and wife."

Tang Weiwei's face turned green when she heard that.

"You..." Just as she was about to say something, Zhan Xiaoting's phone suddenly rang.

'I'm saved!'

She quickly said, "The phone is ringing. Answer it!"

When Zhan Xiaoting heard the ringtone, his mood suddenly disappeared.

It was the ringtone he'd personally set for Tang Xinru.

He took out his phone and looked at it. It was indeed her.

At the thought of what Tang Xinru had done to An'an, Zhan Xiaoting's face turned cold. He hung up the phone and blacklisted the number.

"Master Zhan, you're not picking that up?" Tang Weiwei asked tentatively.

The number that Zhan Xiaoting blocked just now seemed to be Tang Xinru's number. 

'Hm, did the two of them have a falling out?'

"Don't ask about things that don't concern you!" Zhan Xiaoting warned coldly.

Tang Weiwei pouted. "Fine. I won't ask."

Soon after, they arrived at Tang Weiwei's real estate company.

"Young Master Zhan, thank you..." After she thanked him, she got out of the car and went to work.

When it was time to get off work at night, Zhan Xiaoting came to pick her up again, and they returned to the manor together.

From then on, Zhan Xiaoting drove her to and from work almost daily.

Even if he was too busy to come over, he would still ask the driver to pick her up.

In the beginning, Tang Weiwei was not used to it. She rejected him a few times, but Zhan Xiaoting ignored her every time. Eventually, she learned to accept it.

...

On this day.

When Tang Weiwei got off work, Zhan Xiaoting's car appeared at the entrance of the company again.

She was already used to it, so she got into the car with familiarity.

In the car, Zhan Xiaoting was dealing with his emails while Tang Weiwei took out her client's information and studied it.

The two of them did not speak, but the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Soon, Tang Weiwei's neck was a little strained from reading the documents. She raised her head and moved her neck, but suddenly...

She realized that the path they were taking now was not the way back at all.

She was shocked. "Hey, where are you taking me?"

In the past, Zhan Xiaoting had picked her up every day. Could it be that he wanted her to let her guard down and then...

Bring her to a place with no one else and kill her?

Zhan Xiaoting could tell what she was thinking at a glance and was instantly speechless.

He sighed, afraid that Tang Weiwei would overthink.

"I'm taking you to dinner. I know a herbal restaurant in A City. The herbal dishes are good for the body, especially for sick people. I've already sent someone to bring An'an to the restaurant to dine with us."

Tang Weiwei was stunned for a moment.

She pursed her lips and asked, "Why are you suddenly so kind recently? "

"An'an almost got into trouble this time because of Xinru. I..."

"Stop..." Tang Weiwei's expression suddenly turned cold as she interrupted him. "I don't want to hear that person's name."

When she heard the name 'Tang Xinru', she felt so disgusted that she wanted to throw up.

Seeing her reaction, Zhan Xiaoting was afraid that he had overstepped boundaries.

He could only say helplessly, "Alright, let's not talk about her then. Let's talk about me.

"I like Anan very much, and he treats me as a friend. It's only right that I treat him well ...

"As for you, you can take it as a bonus that you're enjoying my extended treatment to you because of An'an."

As soon as he finished speaking, they arrived.

Tang Weiwei followed Zhan Xiaoting to a private room. As expected, An'an was already there.

An'an was very happy to see them together.

The owner of the herbal restaurant prepared different types of herbal dishes according to each person's condition.

After eating the herbal dish, An'an's hands, which were cold all year round due to his illness, became warmer.

When she realized this, Tang Weiwei was quite grateful to Zhan Xiaoting.

It was still early, and An'an didn't want to go back to the hospital so early. The herbal restaurant was not far from the beach, so they went to the beach to play.

An'an stood in the middle, holding Zhan Xiaoting's hand with one hand and Tang Weiwei's hand with the other.

"Mom, Uncle Zhan, don't we look like a family of three?" he asked happily.

"Daddy, mommy, and baby!"

Tang Weiwei's face darkened. She knew that An'an was trying to matchmake her and Zhan Xiaoting.

Tang Weiwei said, "I don't think so!"

"Yes, very similar!" Zhan Xiaoting replied.

The two of them looked at each other, speechless.

Suddenly, An'an cried out in surprise, "Mommy, Uncle Zhan, look! There's a shooting star!"

Tang Weiwei looked up and saw a shooting star flying across the sky.

"Quickly make a wish!" She immediately lowered her head and sincerely made a wish, hoping that An'an's illness could be cured, and that her other child would be well in heaven.

An'an also made a wish very seriously.

When he opened his eyes, his eyes were sparkling as he asked, "Mom, Uncle Zhan, do you know what wish I made? "

"What did you wish for?"

"I wish for Mommy and Uncle Zhan to be together forever!" An'an said with a smile.

Tang Weiwei was speechless.

Zhan Xiaoting looked at Tang Weiwei with a half-smile and asked, "Did you teach him this?"

"How is that possible?" Tang Weiwei was like a cat with its fur standing on end. "Do I look like I'm tired of living by being with such a cold and unpredictable person like you?"

When he heard her say this, Zhan Xiaoting suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"Likewise..." His face was cold as he said, "If you didn't cling to the Zhan family so shamelessly, we would have cut off all ties long ago."

Tang Weiwei was speechless.

She was the one who went back on her word, so she felt a little guilty.

"An'an, your wish won't come true if you tell it to me. Your wish is destined not to come true," she said to her son.

An'an pursed his lips in disappointment. He turned to Zhan Xiaoting and said, "Uncle Zhan, I want to go to the bathroom."

Tang Weiwei didn't want her son to get too close to this overbearing and unpredictable man, so she immediately said, "I'll go with you."

Zhan Xiaoting sneered and looked at her sarcastically. "Are you going to take An'an to the ladies' room? Or to the men's room? An'an is already four years old and has gender awareness. Is it appropriate for you to bring him to the ladies' room?

"Or do you want to go to the men's room and act like a hooligan?"

Tang Weiwei suddenly choked and couldn't say a word.

Zhan Xiaoting ignored her and carried An'an to the washroom.

While waiting, Tang Weiwei was bored and took out her phone to play for a while. Seeing that the two of them had not come out yet, she couldn't help but feel a little strange. Just as she was about to go and find them ...

She suddenly saw An'an in a white suit, leaving in the other direction.

Strange, why was An'an alone? Where was he going?

Where was Zhan Xiaoting, who had accompanied him to the washroom?

Also, when did he change out of his clothes into this suit?

Seeing An'an walking further and further away, Tang Weiwei was full of doubts and was about to chase after her, when suddenly...

"Where are you going?" Someone grabbed her arm.

Tang Weiwei turned around, confused. She saw Zhan Xiaoting holding An'an's hand and frowning at her.

"An'an?" She rubbed her eyes in disbelief. "What are you doing here? Didn't you just walk in that direction? You even changed into a suit."

As she spoke, Tang Weiwei looked in the direction that the small figure had left.
