At the office, Shen Yixuan answered an incoming call. When he saw the caller ID, his face darkened. After hearing his mother’s words, his expression soured further. He quickly hung up, grabbed his coat, and left, ignoring Zhuo Ning.
Zhuo Ning watched her brother change after the call, becoming anxious and excited. She felt abandoned, heartbroken. Was he finding out about that fox’s whereabouts? That’s why he was so nervous, leaving without a word.
Zhuo Ning thought to herself as she watched Shen Yixuan leave, wishing the despicable woman never comes back. She was worried unnecessarily; the girl had been taken by his mother without telling him. Why kidnap her instead of communicating directly? Thankfully, the girl was fine, alleviating his fears.
Shen Yixuan rushed to the old house with mixed feelings of joy, frustration, and confusion.
Chapter 86: Doubts
“Okay, girl, he’ll be here soon. This brat hung up on me,” Shang Guan Zilin said, looking indignant at her phone.
“Aunt, will he really come?” Luo Yaling asked uncertainly.
“Do I not know my own son? He might be speeding here right now! Just wait calmly. If he doesn’t want you, I’ll take you,” she reassured.
“Ah?” Luo Yaling widened her eyes.
“Don’t look so worried. He won’t abandon you,” Shen Yiqiang quickly added.
“Hehe! Yes, just sit and wait for him,” Shang Guan Zilin said, regretting her earlier words about abandonment.
“By the way, Aunt, why are Uncle and your son’s names…” Luo Yaling hesitated, changing the subject.
“I changed them. I want them to sound harmonious like brothers.”
Shang Guan Zilin explained excitedly, though she was worried about her son being found by that bastard.
“Uh? Hehe! It’s quite good,” Luo Yaling laughed at the excited Shang Guan Zilin.
Is this really okay? As long as it’s him. Will Xuan really come? Is he with Zhuo Ning? Aunt should know, right?
“Um, Aunt, can I ask a question?” Luo Yaling looked nervous.
“Uh? What question? Go ahead! I’ll answer,” Shang Guan Zilin smiled.
“What is the relationship between Zhuo Ning and Xuan?” Luo Yaling’s words made their smiles freeze.
Luo Yaling looked at their expressions, confused. Did she ask something wrong? Zhuo Ning is indeed a complicated person. If she’s not mistaken, Xuan’s running away must be related to her.
