Chapter 372 Suddenly says he wants to adopt a son

Si Heng and Meng Xiaokai returned to the police station, while Jiang Yuan returned to the East Coast Villa to wait for news from Mary.

She was sitting in the rocking chair in the yard, basking in the sun while waiting for Mary, when she suddenly heard a system notification.

[System 009: Miss Jiang, you have one more task to complete.]

task?

Jiang Yuan blinked and used her mind to control the task panel, and sure enough, she saw a task in progress.

How to appease the snake king?

She frowned slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

Where is the Snake King?
[System 009: You need to search for it.]

Jiang Yuan: "..."

Where can she find the Snake King?

Jiang Yuan sat for a while, then beckoned Blueberry over. "I'm going to the study to do a live stream. If Mary comes looking for me later, bring it to the study, okay?"

"Okay," Blueberry nodded obediently.

Jiang Yuan got up and walked into the villa, where she saw Zeng Guilin mopping the floor.

When she returned from Xiao Xu's house in the morning, Zeng Guilin was wiping the table.

They are indeed very diligent.

Jiang Yuan caught a glimpse of an umbrella on the coffee table out of the corner of her eye, and remembered Duan Yunzhou who had lent her the umbrella that day.

She went into the study, found Duan Yunzhou on WeChat, and sent him a text message: "Mr. Duan, thank you for the umbrella the other day. Could you please send me your address so I can mail it to you?"

After sending the message, Jiang Yuan sat down at her desk and opened the live streaming platform.

Today's live stream is mainly about Xiao Xu's sister.

Jiang Yuan wanted to bring up the matter when there were more viewers, and after the broadcast started, she would connect with the audience first, as usual.

"Sesame Pocket" successfully connected, and a beautiful girl appeared in the split screen.

"Hello, Sesame Pocket." A slight smile appeared on Jiang Yuan's lips.

Sesame Pocket smiled and said, "Yuan Yuan, hello. I didn't expect you to do live streaming during the day."

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I just happen to have nothing to do today."

"I see." Sesame Pocket said hesitantly, "Yuan Yuan, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with, and I'd also like to hear some suggestions from netizens."

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly. "Okay, tell me."

“Here’s what happened,” Sesame Pocket said. “My husband and I have been married for two years, but we haven’t planned to have a baby yet. Recently, my mother-in-law suddenly said that she wants to adopt a son and asked my husband and me to raise him for them.”

Jiang Yuan blinked and hesitated, "Do your in-laws want to adopt for themselves, or adopt for you?"

“They themselves,” Sesame Pocket said helplessly. “They said it’s a pity they only have one son.”

I'm speechless.

Are your in-laws trying to pressure you into having a child, which is why they're saying these things on purpose?

**Absolutely refuse! Let them raise them themselves!!!**

"Yes." Sesame Pocket nodded vigorously after seeing the comments. "I would definitely refuse. I'd rather have my own child than waste that energy on this."

"Is that all?" Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly. "Because you regret wanting to adopt a son?"

She felt things weren't that simple.

"I don't know either." Sesame Pocket's expression became more serious. "I just can't figure it out. It feels weird, but I can't figure out what's weird about it."

Do you have a pet? Hahaha

[There's definitely something fishy going on] Jiang Yuan: "Do you have any pets?"

“I don’t keep any,” Sesame Pocket said, “but my in-laws have a tank of ornamental fish. Yuan Yuan, could you help me talk to them?”

"Okay." Jiang Yuan nodded and asked softly, "Are you at your in-laws' house right now?"

"No." Sesame Doudou shook her head. "I'm at my own home now, but my in-laws' house is in the neighborhood across the street from ours, so it's a quick trip there."

Jiang Yuan: "Okay, is it convenient for you to go over now?"

"It's convenient." Sesame Pocket had already gotten up and was heading towards the entrance. "I'll be right there."

Afraid of delaying Jiang Yuan and everyone else, she rode her electric scooter there instead.

As Sesame Pocket took the elevator upstairs, she excitedly said, "My in-laws are away at a wedding today."

She took out her key, opened the door, and went straight to the fish tank next to the TV in the living room.

A small goldfish gently sways its tail fin as it swims leisurely in the water.

"Little fish, little fish." Sesame Pocket tapped on the glass of the fish tank. "Can you do me a favor?"

The little goldfish gurgled and blew bubbles, looking at Sesame Pocket with a puzzled expression.

"what?"

"Are you kidding me? Fish are just ornamental fish, how can they help you?"

Upon hearing the goldfish's words, Jiang Yuan's smile deepened, and she chuckled, "I'm not kidding, I'm serious, I need your help."

"Huh?" The little goldfish swam to the glass, surprised. "Is there anything a fish can do to help?"

"Yes," Jiang Yuan said gently. "Besides you, are there two other humans living here?"

“Yes,” the little goldfish said, blowing bubbles. “Those two humans are the fishkeepers.”

Jiang Yuan: "Do you usually listen to what they talk about?"

Little Goldfish: "Yes! Fish get bored staying in here all day, and I often listen to the uncle and aunt talking!"

"That's great." Jiang Yuan looked at the goldfish chatting enthusiastically in the fish tank through the screen. "Can I ask you some questions?"

The little goldfish, having encountered a human who could talk to it for the first time, nodded vigorously, "Okay, go ahead and ask!"

"Do you and your wife have a son?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Little Goldfish: "Yes! My son has a wife, who is this female human holding the cell phone."

The little goldfish watches Sesame Pocket's in-laws every day and learns about many things, including that the thing Sesame Pocket is holding that's making video calls is called a cell phone.

"You're so smart," Jiang Yuan praised. "Are you two planning to adopt a son soon?"

"Adopt a son?" The little goldfish blinked its round, bulging eyes, as if it were thinking seriously. "I'll have to think about it."

Jiang Yuan didn't disturb it and waited patiently.

About a minute later, the little goldfish gurgled and said, "The fish remembered that the one that the uncle and aunt adopted wasn't their son, but their son's son."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan's slender eyebrows slowly furrowed. "Xiao Yu, could you explain in more detail?"

“Okay,” the goldfish explained. “If I remember correctly, this is how it happened…”

That night, Sesame Pocket's husband arrived at his parents' house reeking of alcohol, looking unusually nervous and anxious.

"Why are you here so late?" Zheng's parents had actually gone to bed, but were woken up by the doorbell. They were sitting on the sofa in the living room, yawning, still in their pajamas.

Zheng's mother frowned and asked, "Have you been drinking? Did your wife pick a fight with you again? I didn't approve of you choosing this wife in the first place, and now look what's happened, she's always picking fights with you!"

"Say less," Zheng's father nudged his wife with his elbow. "Isn't our son annoying enough already?"

Zheng's mother rolled her eyes.

Mr. Zheng looked at his son, his expression turning serious: "What exactly happened?"
