Chapter 112 Doubt

When Jiang Manman learned that Xie Jian had gotten into a fight, she immediately dropped what she was doing and rushed over. However, the studio was quite far from the hotel where she was currently staying, and it was rush hour with heavy traffic, so she became the last person to arrive at the scene.

The moment she entered the reception room, she heard Attorney Chen say, "Ms. Jiang, you can sign it."

He paused slightly as he met Attorney Chen's gaze.

She still remembers the lawyer.

Earlier at the hotel, this lawyer mistook her for Mrs. Xie and even claimed to have personally handled her marriage registration with some Mr. Xie. The absurdity of this remark ironically made a stronger impression on her.

"Sister!" Jiang Che had already picked up Xie Jian, feeling rather embarrassed. "I didn't take good care of Xie Jian."

Then, she briefly explained the solution, and finally pointed to Attorney Chen and his group, saying, "Sister, they are lawyers from the Xie Group. I heard they are Xie Yunxi's direct subordinates. They came up with the compensation plan this time, and all the other parties have no objections."

The wealthy families smiled bitterly. Why were there no objections? They were feeling resentful! But after this international business war, the Xie family's status was even higher than before. These smaller wealthy families were too busy trying to curry favor with them to dare to go against them.
The Jiang family patriarch looked at Jiang Manman and said, "Manman, Attorney Chen just said that this compensation document can be effective if you sign it. Please help us sign it and settle this matter for our uncles and elders."

Jiang Manman picked up the document, glanced through it, and her gaze fell on the guardian's signature column at the end.

She had signed countless documents, and with the occasional personal guidance from her shrewd and calculating son-in-law in the business world, she immediately spotted the key points of this contract:

"I am not qualified to sign the compensation agreement for the child. Let's wait for Xie Yunxi to come back and sign it."

At the same time, I vaguely remembered that I had seen a similar compensation document in Yan Changye's hands not long ago. It was signed by Xie Yunxi and the compensation content was similar, but this time the amount seemed to be ridiculously high.

“Once Xie Yunxi returns, the compensation amount in the contract will increase dramatically.” The Jiang family patriarch smiled wryly. “Attorney Chen just said you can sign it.”

Jiang Manman looked at Attorney Chen again.

Attorney Chen nodded slightly, his tone almost humble and respectful in front of Jiang Manman, a stark contrast to his usual arrogance and domineering manner in front of wealthy and powerful families: "Ms. Jiang, we meet again."

Jiang Manman waved the document in her hand: "You're telling me, my signature will be valid?"

Attorney Chen remained silent.

This time, he genuinely didn't know how to explain it.

Jiang Manman asked again, "Are you Xie Yunxi's man?"

"Yes, Miss Jiang."

"The last time we met, the Mr. Xie you mentioned... was it Xie Yunxi? You mistook me for Xie Yunxi's wife?"

Attorney Chen remained silent for several seconds before saying, "Perhaps I made a mistake. I apologize."

“You just said my signature would be valid…” Jiang Manman thought for a moment, “You still see me as Mrs. Xie, Xie Jian’s mother?”

Attorney Chen didn't dare to respond and silently took the documents back.

"I'll have Mr. Xie sign it instead." He decisively ended the topic, which was full of pitfalls.

Jiang Manman calmly observed the supposedly world-renowned lawyer, lost in thought. Could such a high-ranking figure really make a mistake in signing an authorization document?

At night, Jiang Manman applied children's ointment to Xie Jian's face to reduce swelling, hugged Xie Jian, and pondered, "Xie Jian, why did you insist on having me be your mother from the beginning?"

Xie Jian blinked and said in a childish voice, "You smell like Mommy. You're so fragrant and soft, the most beautiful mommy I've ever seen!"

"When you first gave me that painting, wanting me to be your mother, we hadn't even met yet," Jiang Manman chuckled. "How did you know I was fragrant, soft, and beautiful?"

Xie Jian's tone was slightly jealous: "Yan Changye has so many photos of you on his phone! He said that you are so fragrant and soft to hug, and he can't get enough of hugging you every day."

As Xie Jian spoke, his paws had already climbed onto Jiang Manman again. He nodded firmly, "I knew he wasn't lying to me when I saw Manman!"

Jiang Manman looked slightly embarrassed. Yan Changye really dared to say anything in front of the child... She covered her embarrassment with a light cough, and then remembered that Yan Changye had said that Xie Jian seemed to have never met his mother. She couldn't help but hug Xie Jian a little tighter: "Alright, I will treat you like my son from now on."

"Manman seems to really like me!" Xie Mian's face flushed slightly, her eyes sparkled, and she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips, looking incredibly cute and adorable.

Jiang Manman couldn't resist and kissed him on the forehead: "I like it, I like it very much."

Two days later, in the middle of the night, Yan Changye's plane arrived in the capital.

With bodyguards clearing the way, the luxury car returned to No. 1 Mansion without any hindrance.

Startled, the butler came out to greet him in surprise: "Chairman, you're back! We didn't receive any prior notice that you were coming back. Should we prepare some late-night snacks for you?"

"No need," Yan Changye instructed in a low voice. "Go upstairs to the dressing room and get me a bathrobe, the same style that Madam is wearing today."

The butler hesitated.

Yan Changye suddenly raised an eyebrow: "Is there a problem?"

The butler said in a low voice, "Recently, Young Master Xie Jian has bought a lot of matching parent-child bathrobes, and now Madam wears the same style as Young Master Xie Jian."

Yan Changye: "..."

He had mixed feelings: "Never mind, I'll just grab any clothes from the changing room downstairs."

"The changing room downstairs is already..."

Before the butler could finish speaking, Yan Changye had already pushed open the door to the first-floor dressing room.

Inside the door, all you could see were children's clothes, and next to them were women's clothes in the same color scheme.

Yan Changye's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth: "Tsk, you little bastard! You really stole our base thoroughly."

Seeing that he seemed both angry and not angry, the butler was unsure of his attitude and tentatively asked, "Shall I go upstairs to the dressing room and get you something? The style may be different, but it would be fine if it matched the color of Madam's."

Yan Changye, his expression unreadable, said, "Go, but be careful not to wake my wife."

Half an hour later, after taking a shower, Yan Changye, wearing a light blue bathrobe, quietly entered the master bedroom.

Overwhelmed by longing, Jiang Manman entered the bedroom in the dim light of the corridor and embraced the soft, alluring body she had been dreaming of. Her longing transformed into a dense, chaotic kiss, completely sealing Jiang Manman's desire.

Jiang Manman was startled awake. Yan Changye had already turned on the wall lamp. Under the light, the man, whom she hadn't seen for many days, had a lustful look in his eyes and had already used his teeth to untie Jiang Manman's bra strap.

Jiang Manman reached out to stop her: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?"

Yan Changye's hand had already slipped inside her nightgown, his tone gentle and tender, "Tell me in advance what other surprises await? Madam, let me have a little treat first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled her robe down to her waist.

Jiang Manman blushed suddenly: "Xie Jian is right here! Don't do anything rash."

Yan Changye was slightly taken aback. Faced with such beauty, he had truly forgotten Xie Jian!

Yan Changye casually pulled the blanket over Jiang Manman, his tone slightly disgusted: "I'll throw him next door first, and bring him back when we're done playing with him."

After saying that, he lifted the blanket next to him with one hand.

In the dim light, Yan Changye met a pair of exquisite peach blossom eyes.
