After coming ashore, the little mermaid was pampered by his five fathers.

On the second floor of Lu Garden, Mu Chen was folding clothes for Xiao Ranran when a strong sense of familiarity suddenly welled up in his heart.

He immediately closed his eyes and carefully sensed the surroundings, only to discover that Xiao Ranran was not far from him.

Without thinking, Mu Chen threw down the clothes in her hand and rushed downstairs.

Downstairs, Lu Lingzhou was still sitting there with a sullen face, and the same people were still in front of him.

He didn't rest all night, but there was still no news.

Lu Tingchen stood silently to the side, typing away on his computer. He was trying to find the person using his own methods, but it was all in vain.

Jiang Wen sat on a small chair behind Lu Lingzhou, not daring to utter a sound, for fear of being thrown out.

At this moment, Mu Chen hurriedly ran downstairs.

"Baby, baby's all around, hurry and find him!"

With that sound, the person ran out.

Mu Qing and Mu Lan knew what he meant and followed him out.

Lu Lingzhou's eyes darted around, and he suddenly stood up and headed for the door.

Outside the iron gate of Lu Garden, Murui opened the car door and took Xiao Ranran out of the back seat.

"Ranran, is this your home?" Murui asked.

Xiao Ranran nodded: "Okay, I'll clip it in."

Suddenly, someone entered her line of sight, and Xiao Ranran's eyes lit up, "Brother."

The little hands waved happily, "Pot, pot!"

"Pot, pot."

Mu Chen heard the sound, looked up, and saw the little cub waving at him from outside the door.

"My little one!"

When Mu Rui saw Mu Chen running over, he swallowed hard.

Now it's confirmed that Ranran lives here, which means that Ranran is Lu Lingzhou's son.

No way, it can't be that much of a coincidence.

But why is Lu Lingzhou's son related to him?

Why?

Having always inherited his master's true teachings and possessing considerable talent in metaphysics, Mu Rui expressed deep doubt at this moment.

Could it be that I miscalculated?

Just as he was wondering, Lu Lingzhou appeared in front of him, stretched out his long arm and took the child from his arms.

"Little darling."

Lu Lingzhou hurriedly hugged Xiao Ranran in his arms, stroking her delicate cheeks with his hand, his eyes filled with deep worry.

"Beep beep~"

When Xiao Ranran saw Lu Lingzhou, her eyes seemed to be filled with a dazzling light, sparkling and beautiful, which softened Lu Lingzhou's heart instantly.

He held Xiao Ranran tightly, inhaling the faint scent of milk emanating from him, and his heart, which had been pounding, finally settled down.

His baby is back.

"You scared Daddy to death! Daddy thought our little one had disappeared."

Little Ranran reached out and hugged Lu Lingzhou's neck, pressing her cheek against his, and called out in a cute, childish voice, "Ba ba~ Xiang~"

"Daddy misses Little Darling too."

Have you had breakfast?

Lu Lingzhou looked at the little darling in his arms and asked softly.

Xiao Ranran nodded, then pointed at Murui, "Cheers~neinei, food."

"Are you full? How about Mu Chen takes Xiao Guai to get some more fruit? Daddy has something to say to him."

"Okay~"

The little darling obediently agreed, then touched Lu Lingzhou's cheek and reached out to Mu Chen, "Brother."

Lu Lingzhou bent down slightly so that Mu Chen could catch Ranran.

Mu Chen hugged Xiao Ran, then pressed his cheek against hers. After glancing at Lu Lingzhou, he carried Xiao Ran back to the villa's living room along the road.

When Lu Tingchen and Jiang Wen, who were nearby, saw Xiao Ranran return, they also hurriedly turned around and went back.

"Ranran."

"Little baby."

Lu Tingchen looked at the obedient Ranran, breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged him in his arms, "You scared your second uncle."

I almost thought that my sweet little darling was going to die.

"So crispy~"

Little Ranran called out in a soft, sweet voice, her smile instantly dispelling the anxiety in Lu Tingchen's heart.

He smiled and gently stroked Ranran's cheek with his fingers, "Ranran is such a good girl."

"Here you go, little one, your favorite strawberry." Mu Chen picked out the biggest strawberry and handed it to Ranran.

Ranran's little hands were so small that they could barely hold the strawberry, and the bright red strawberry made Ranran's smile even brighter.

"Thank you so much, buddy!"

"You're welcome. There's more over there; it's all saved for the little one."

Mu Chen's eyes were full of smiles, and he was stroking Ranran's little head.

As for Jiang Wen, Lu Tingchen and Mu Chen didn't let him have any contact with him, not even leaving him a crack.

At the entrance of Lu Garden, Lu Lingzhou looked at Mu Rui, his expression no longer as kind and gentle as when Ranran was there, but rather carrying a hint of murderous intent.

"Why did Mr. Mu bring my child here?"

His tone was cold and hard, his gaze was icy, and he even moved his wrist slightly.

Murray sensed his hostility but didn't try to hide it. "Sorry."

With just two words, Lu Lingzhou instantly understood what it meant.

He clenched his fist and punched Murui in the face.

Murui didn't dodge; she took it head-on.

However, it does hurt a bit.

A faint taste of blood still lingered in my mouth.

He straightened up: "I was wrong in this matter, but I had my reasons. Could you give me a chance to explain?"

"But you might not believe this reason, but I assure you it's true, and I'm also very puzzled."

Lu Lingzhou, annoyed by his rambling, snapped, "Get out! I'm not listening!"

They even have the nerve to justify stealing his child.

Lu Lingzhou turned and left with a cold face. After he left, the carved iron gate closed, leaving Mu Rui outside.

Murui wiped his mouth, looked at the bloodstains on his palm, and sighed.

Forget it, let's wait for the results.

It's pointless for him to say anything now; besides, who could believe something like this? Even he himself doesn't quite dare to believe it.

Murui covered his face and drove away, intending to wait for the report to come out before making any further statements.

If Ranran is really his child, then he must bring her back no matter what.

Lu Lingzhou returned to the villa's living room and felt a deep sense of contentment as he listened to the children's laughter filling the room once again.

"Little darling."

"Beep beep~"

When Xiao Ranran saw Lu Lingzhou, she couldn't wait to let go of Lu Tingchen's hand and staggered towards him step by step, still holding a small building block toy in her hand.

Lu Lingzhou squatted down, stretched out his hand, and patiently waited for him to come over.

When Xiao Ranran came over and rushed into his arms, he pulled back and hugged him back.

"Daddy's little darling is so wonderful."

It's getting more and more stable; I'm afraid it won't be long before it runs away.

Thinking about it this way, time really does fly by.

When Xiao Ranran came to him, she was still a little mermaid. But later, she put away her fishtail and became a human baby. She went from not being able to walk to being able to walk, and from not being able to speak to being able to speak simple words.

Holding little Ranran in his arms, Lu Lingzhou felt a mix of emotions, including reluctance to part with her.

However, on second thought, it's not bad to watch the little one in my arms grow up.

Lu Lingzhou gazed tenderly at Xiao Ranran, then lowered his head to touch hers.

"Little darling, do you want to go swimming?"

Little Ranran's big eyes sparkled with excitement: "I want it!"

"Okay, let's go swimming!"

Lu Lingzhou picked up Xiao Ranran and headed towards the swimming pool in the yard, with Mu Chen and Lu Tingchen following behind.

Jiang Wen was about to follow when Mu Chen stopped him, saying, "Don't go. Just tidy up the house, thank you."
