Upon hearing this, Nan Shu immediately withdrew her outstretched hand.

If she were to rush in now, it might ruin the atmosphere between them.

Qi Yuye was surprised that Lin Xi would suddenly say such a thing. He frowned slightly and was about to speak.

Seeing that Nan Shu didn't seem very happy, Hmm looked up at Nan Shu with her little head, as if she suddenly understood something.

He immediately leaned against the door and pushed it open with all his might.

"Dad, we're back!"

The loud "hmm" interrupted Lin Qi's attempt to lean closer to Qi Yuye.

Lin Xi sat up straight and looked at Hmm with some displeasure.

Nuomi ran in and sweetly called out "Mom" to Lin Xi, but Lin Xi remained silent with a cold face.

Nan Shu then walked in and looked at Enen, who was clinging to Qi Yuye and wouldn't let go, and shook her head helplessly.

"Dad, when I grow up, I will definitely protect Mom and never let anyone break her heart!"

The sentence "Mmm" was uttered in one breath, which surprised Nan Shu.

Qi Yuye also looked shocked. After realizing what Enen had said, Qi Yuye smiled and reached out to gently scratch Enen's nose.

"Yes, you're right to think that way. As long as you can protect Mom, you're a real little man!"

"Dad, what about me?"

Nuomi, who was standing nearby, was a little jealous and came over too.

"You are the most amazing little princess in the whole world."

Qi Yuye picked up Nuomi as well.

Lin Xi, who was standing to the side, was furious when she saw that the two children had ruined the end of her carefully planned date.

It was no longer possible to continue the previous topic. Lin Xi glared fiercely at Nan Shu, snorted coldly, and then turned and left the living room.

Qi Yuye didn't even look up; he was just focused on playing with the two children.

Still preoccupied with what had happened before, Nan Shu couldn't bring herself to interact with Qi Yuye with a normal expression.

"Qi Yuye, yes, it's time to go back and rest."

Nan Shu spoke up to remind her.

Qi Yuye turned to look at Nan Shu, stared at her for a long time, and then suddenly spoke.

Are you jealous?

"I don't!"

Nan Shu categorically denied it.

Seeing Nan Shu like this, Qi Yuye's deep laughter suddenly came over.

"Don't worry, even for the sake of the children, I will cut ties completely with Lin Xi."

"I said I didn't!"

Nan Shu subconsciously replied.

After realizing what Qi Yuye had just said, Nan Shu was stunned.

"What did you just say?"

Cut ties completely with Lin Xi? Isn't Lin Xi the white moonlight he's loved since childhood?

Now that he has finally married his first love, why is he saying he wants to break things off with her completely?

Looking at Hmm in Qi Yuye's arms, Nan Shu felt she had found the answer.

Qi Yuye was probably worried that she would leave with Hmm and not recognize him, so he deliberately tried to keep her calm with this excuse.

Thinking of this, Nan Shu still didn't have a good expression and spoke coldly.

"Even if you say you'll break things off completely with Lin Xi, I won't believe you. Lin Xi is your white moonlight. You liked her so much back then, how could you change your mind so easily now?"

"Nan Shu, what exactly do you want me to do for you to believe me?"

Qi Yuye put the two children on the ground and suddenly moved closer to Nan Shu.

"If I said I married Lin Xi only so it would be easier for her to come back, would you believe me?"

Qi Yuye uttered words that shocked Nan Shu once again.

Nan Shu looked at Qi Yuye in disbelief.

Logically, she shouldn't have believed it, but for some reason, when those words came out of Qi Yuye's mouth, for a fleeting moment she actually hoped it was true.

Realizing this, Nan Shu panicked and immediately pushed Qi Yuye, who was almost within reach, away.

"I don't want to talk about this right now. I just want to know that Enen and Nuomi are both doing well."

After leaving those words, Nan Shu hurriedly returned to her bedroom, leaving only Enen, Nuomi, and Qi Yuye staring at each other in the living room.

Inside a room.

Lin Xi leaned against the wall, looking at the surveillance footage on her phone, the audio clearly audible.

Thinking of what Qi Yuye and Nan Shu had just said, she couldn't help but clench her fists.

She originally intended to spend her life with Qi Yuye, and she finally managed to persuade him to marry her. Who knew that she would encounter such a change of events now?

Lin Xi's face was extremely ugly, and she angrily smashed her phone on the ground.

The culprit behind all of this is Nan Shu, and she must get rid of Nan Shu as soon as possible!

She had to come up with a solution...

A few more days passed.

The design drafts that Nan Shu submitted to Shengda Group have been finalized, and she will no longer need to be involved in the subsequent processes.

A few days ago, she received an invitation to the Chris Expo, which was a great opportunity for her to shine, so Nan Shu readily accepted.

The exhibition was held in Jiangcheng, a city nearby, so Nan Shu had to go to Jiangcheng a day in advance.

This was the first time Nan Shu had been separated from Enen since Enen was born. Before leaving, Nan Shu entrusted Enen to Qi Yuye.

After all, Qi Yuye is Um's biological father.

Upon arriving in Jiangcheng, Nan Shu went straight to the hotel she had booked.

To ensure her comfort, Qi Yuye had his assistant book the most luxurious hotel suite.

After settling in, Nan Shu went to the hotel's dining area to have some food.

After taking her seat, Nan Shu looked at the delicious food in front of her and immediately felt her mouth water.

Just as I was about to eat, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from the side, getting closer and closer.

Nan Shu subconsciously looked up toward the source of the sound and saw a person who looked somewhat like Chen Jingyan walk past.

However, since all that person showed her was their back, Nan Shu couldn't be sure that it was Chen Jingyan.

Nan Shu shook her head and couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Impossible, how could Chen Jingyan be here? I must be seeing things."

Nan Shu banished the thoughts from her mind and continued eating with her head down.

After dinner, Nan Shu strolled around outside for a while.

Wandering aimlessly through an unfamiliar city.

Nan Shu's gaze swept around, looking for a fun place.

Across the street, a woman was pacing back and forth, looking very anxious, while making a phone call.

Nan Shu was stunned for a moment, looked at the woman, and rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

The next moment, a car sped past, blocking her view.

After the car drove away, the woman also disappeared.

"Was that Lin Xi just now?"

Nan Shu could hardly believe what she was seeing, and even thought she was hallucinating.

How could Lin Xi be here? She clearly left for work when she left home today.

Nan Shu thought that she might have been too influenced by Qi Yuye recently, which was why she had this illusion.

"No, I need to go back and get some rest. Chris's exhibition is coming up soon, and I have to be in top form!"

Nan Shu immediately turned around and went back to the hotel.

A corner not far away.

Lin Xi watched Nan Shu's retreating figure, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said something to the person on the other end of the phone.

She didn't notice me.
