Meanwhile, Tang Little Second had already made up with Tang Nuanning.
Nuanning was unaware of what had transpired at the train station, nor did she know that her Little Second had caused a big fuss. Watching the little one hurrying back, she was concerned,
"Little Second, where did you run off to? Mommy has been looking for you for a long time."
Seeing his mom's attitude, Little Second knew that this big dummy of a mom definitely had no clue about what had just happened.
His eyes curved in a smile, looking cheery,
"Don't worry, Mommy, it's my first time here, and I was just curious, so I ran out to have a look. Mommy, this place is so lively!"
"Of course, this is one of the top cities in the country! But with so many people around, you mustn't run off again. What if you got kidnapped by human traffickers? What would Mommy, your brother, and your little brother do then?"
Tang Little Second patted his chest and said,
"Don't worry, Mommy, if human traffickers met me, you'd have to worry about them instead! Don't they know who my mom is? How smart I am? There's no way I could be kidnapped by traffickers!"
"Always with the smart mouth," Nuanning chided, but there wasn't a hint of sternness on her face, only indulgence.
Little Second cooed, "Alright, Mommy, no worries. Look, I've come back safe and sound, right? Let's go have dinner quickly, I'm starving, and I bet Little Eldest and Little Third are too."
Little Second was worried that the bad woman from before might truly come looking and upset Mommy.
Nuanning laughed, "Okay, Mommy will take you to eat something tasty right now."
"Mm-hmm." The three little ones nodded their heads in unison.
Little Eldest took the chance to take the suitcase from Nuanning's hand, "Mommy, let me."
Tang Little Second quickly took his mom's backpack, "Ladies should just be beautiful. Leave the heavy lifting to the men."
Little Third also stretched out his hand, "Mommy, soot-soot, Little Third will support you."
Nuanning, like a princess doted on by her family, had a smiling face, her expression filled with happiness as she took Little Third's little hand and led them away from the train station.
Nobody noticed that not far away, a pair of eyes were watching them with profound significance…
The person was smiling, but the smile was ghostly and terrifying.
...
It was inconvenient to go out with luggage, so Nuanning found a small hotel near the train station to stay.
She had not yet started working, and didn't have much money, so she couldn't afford a better hotel.
She planned to divorce Bo Yanchen first, register her children's residency, then leave Jin City with them, settle down in a small city with spring-like weather all year round, and look for a job.
"Mommy, are we going to stay here tonight?" Tang Little Eldest asked.
Nuanning knew her Little Eldest was particular about cleanliness and probably didn't like the environment, so she comforted him,
"Mommy doesn't have much money right now, and can't afford a better hotel, so you and your brothers will have to put up with it for a bit. But don't worry, I will clean up the room and put on our own bed linens. We won't stay long, and once Mommy has sorted everything out, we'll move."
Little Eldest, thinking about the billions in his own name, felt somewhat helpless.
His mommy was great in every way, just a bit naive.
Two years ago, he took his first big earnings to Mommy, and she was dumbfounded by the hundred thousand.
She couldn't believe a child could make so much money so easily, convinced it was a new scam by traffickers using the money as bait to lure and kidnap kids.
Consequently, she lost sleep over it, worrying, and laughed less during that time.
Later, when he made his second big earnings, a million!
But after hesitating for a long time, he still didn't dare tell Mommy, afraid she'd overthink things again, and then as he earned more and more, the money just piled up in the bank with no chance to be spent.
Just before they descended the mountain, seeing Mommy's pocket was really empty, he secretly had Little Second give Mommy five thousand, claiming it was a super-market raffle prize at the foot of the mountain, a lucky windfall!
Looking at his silly, dear mommy, Little Eldest sighed softly in his heart, then spoke with indulgent affection,
"Don't overthink it, Mommy, I was just asking. I don't mind this place; I'm happy to be with you, no matter where we are."
Nuanning raised the corners of her lips and smiled,
"Little Eldest is a good boy. You can rest assured, in the future Mommy will definitely work hard, striving to lead you all to a better life as soon as possible!"
"Yes! Go, Mommy!"
"Mommy is the best!"
Little Second and Little Third cheered her on.
Tang Nuanning's smile on her face deepened,
"Okay, let's go. We'll put the luggage away first, then take you out to eat."
"Mm-hmm!"
After dinner, the three little ones went to the bathroom to wash up, while Tang Nuanning changed the sheets and quilt covers outside.
"Knock, knock, knock." A sudden knocking sound erupted.
Thinking it was the hotel service staff, Tang Nuanning opened the door, "Is there..." (something wrong?)
"Take her away!"
Before Tang Nuanning could finish speaking, the leader in black issued an order and immediately two men rushed over and seized her.
Tang Nuanning panicked, "Who are you? What do you want to do? Let me go! You..." she gasped.
Tang Nuanning's mouth was covered, and she was forcibly taken away from the small hotel.
Soon, Tang Nuanning was brought to an office building.
Bo Yanchen was in this building.
He was a typical workaholic; aside from his son, he was only interested in work!
Today, after he had sent Shen Jiaoyue home, he immediately came here for an inspection; he wanted to acquire this building.
Bo Yanchen was examining documents in his office when Zhou Sheng knocked and entered,
"Brother Chen, we've clarified everything. The four tires were destroyed with micro explosives, but the kid's identity is very ordinary. He's been fatherless since he was little, and the three brothers have been living with their mother in a mountain village. They just arrived in Jin City today. There's nothing unusual about the family of four. Our people have already brought the kid's mother here; she's now in the conference room."
Bo Yanchen furrowed his brows—micro explosives?
He put down the file and stood up to walk to the conference room.
Zhou Sheng followed, understanding Bo Yanchen well. Today the explosives had only destroyed the tires and hadn't harmed the body of the car or the people inside. It was clearly high-precision explosives, with the dosage precisely controlled!
A small child couldn't have managed such a feat.
His lordship was suspecting someone was behind the kid.
Over the years, too many had wanted Bo Yanchen dead, so he couldn't let his guard down.
Inside the conference room, Tang Nuanning was still in a daze.
She still didn't know what had happened, and her heart was racing uncontrollably, pounding wildly.
"Who are you? Why have you brought me here? You..."
"Creak," the conference room door was pushed open.
Bo Yanchen walked in front of everyone, emanating an air of hostility.
He looked every bit the autocrat, high above all!
His height of one meter ninety stood out, and Tang Nuanning spotted him at a glance.
Then, her beautiful eyes widened in shock!
She held her breath, unable to believe it as she took another look at him, shocked!
This man, he looked... almost exactly like Little Eldest and Little Second!
Was he the children's daddy?
Was he the wild man who ruined her all those years ago?
At the thought, Tang Nuanning's brows knitted tightly, and she clenched her fists unconsciously.
Her blood pressure skyrocketed, breathing becoming erratic!
The past was too painful to look back on — that one night had destroyed her entire life!
Because of the unexpected pregnancy, she was disgraced, pointed at by thousands and cursed by many, branded as a slut, a tramp, a whore!
As a mother, having three little angel babies was indeed blissful.
But thinking back to those years, she had truly endured too much, unspeakable suffering!
And all that suffering was caused by that wild man!
