Tang Weiwei panicked at first, but she quickly calmed down.

She asked innocently, “What do I need to explain?”

She was certain that Tang Xinru didn’t tell Zhan Xiaoting about their relationship.

Otherwise, Zhan Xiaoting would have already found a bone to pick with her over it long ago.

Zhan Xiaoting furrowed his brows when he saw this.

“Don’t play dumb with me. What’s your relationship with An’an?” he asked coldly. “Is he your son?”

“Of course not…” Tang Weiwei smiled. “I’m so young. How can I have such a big child?”

Zhan Xiaoting did not believe her words at all.

After all, this woman was the best at lying.

“An’an, is she your mother?” He looked at An’an and asked gently.

Tang Weiwei’s heart tightened, but she did not dare to do anything, afraid that she would arouse Zhan Xiaoting’s suspicion.

An’an looked at Tang Weiwei hesitantly and shook her head. “No…”

Tang Weiwei heaved a sigh of relief.

The last time she was blocked by Zhan Xiaoting in the washroom and almost caught red-handed, she knew that he had already suspected her. If she did not think of a way quickly, An’an’s identity could not be hidden anymore.

Therefore, after he left the hospital, he specially reminded An’an not to say that she was his mother in front of outsiders, especially Uncle Zhan.

Although An’an did not understand why, he still remembered it obediently.

Zhan Xiaoting’s gaze was like the sharpest blade as it swept across Tang Weiwei’s face.

She actually taught An’an to lie?

He would definitely expose her!

“Since you’re not An’an’s mother, what’s your relationship with him?”

Zhan Xiaoting questioned, “Don’t tell me that there’s nothing going on between the two of you, and that you two just met by chance.”

“Of course not.” Tang Weiwei licked her lips nervously and said, “An’an is my best friend’s child. She’s usually very busy with work and doesn’t have time to take care of An’an, so she asked me to take care of her.”

“Since it’s only your best friend’s child, why did you avoid me at the hospital last time?”

Zhan Xiaoting had already confirmed that the woman hiding in the washroom that day was Tang Weiwei.

“I just don’t want you to misunderstand and get myself into trouble,” Tang Weiwei explained.

Zhan Xiaoting was about to say something when…

“Weiwei, An’an, let’s go.”

A car stopped in front of them. Shen Qingtian got out of the car.

An’an recalled that her mother had just told Uncle Zhan that she was her godmother’s son.

Hence, she immediately called out affectionately, “Mommy!”

“Come here, Mommy’s good son…” Shen Qingtian responded without hesitation, relying on the tacit understanding she had with Tang Weiwei for many years.

Then, she took An’an from her arms.

The mother and son seemed to have a very good relationship.

Shen Qingtian only noticed Zhan Xiaoting after she hugged An’an, and her eyes flashed with surprise.

This man is so handsome!

If he was willing to enter the entertainment industry, he would definitely be crowned king of the entertainment industry!

She couldn’t help but whistle. “Weiwei, who’s this handsome guy?”

“A friend!” Tang Weiwei replied perfunctorily before turning to Zhan Xiaoting.

“Young Master Zhan, if there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first. We still have to send An’an back to the hospital.”

Zhan Xiaoting frowned.

Tang Weiwei explained everything that needed to be explained, and he also met An’an’s mother.

However, he felt that something was amiss, but he could not put his finger on it.

He suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and said to An’an, “An’an, Uncle Zhan will visit you at the hospital another day.”

With that, he continued to inspect the mall.

Tang Weiwei and Shen Qingtian also sent An’an back to the hospital.

When only Tang Weiwei and herself were left, Shen Qingtian immediately began to ask what was going on.

Tang Weiwei had no choice but to tell her everything that had happened recently.

Knowing that there was finally a lead on An’an’s biological father, she was truly happy for her bestie.

However, up until now, Tang Weiwei had not seen anyone else from the Zhan family.

It seemed that she had to find an opportunity to ask around.

…

On this day.

Tang Weiwei had just gotten off work when Zhan Xiaoting brought her to the old residence.

Old Master Zhan received a batch of good ingredients and asked them to go back for dinner.

Soon, they arrived at the old residence.

Old Master Zhan first cared about Tang Weiwei’s sprained ankle. After confirming that she was really fine, he was relieved.

During dinner…

Old Master Zhan, who had long planned this, suddenly said with an envious expression.

“By the way, I went to my old comrade’s house two days ago. Guess what? His great-grandson is already calling him great-grandfather.”

“Oh…” Zhan Xiaoting replied perfunctorily.

Seeing his indifferent expression, Old Master Zhan was instantly furious. He asked angrily, “Oh what? When will you let me have a great-grandson and enjoy the joy of family?”

Zhan Xiaoting looked indifferent. “Sleep early after dinner. Everything is in your dreams!”

He would never have a child with Tang Weiwei.

As long as the old man did not allow them to get a divorce, he would not have a chance to carry his great-grandson.

Old Master Zhan was about to flare up when he suddenly thought of something…

“You’ve been married for so long, but there’s still no good news…” He frowned and looked at Zhan Xiaoting suspiciously. “Are you not able to do the deed?”

If he was a man, he couldn’t say no!

When Zhan Xiaoting heard this, the veins on his forehead twitched violently, “I can do it!!!”

Old Master Zhan didn’t say anything else, but there was still obvious doubt on his face.

Zhan Xiaoting’s face alternated between green and white, but he did not explain much.

As Tang Weiwei listened to their conversation, she was a little distracted.

Today, she received a call from An’an’s attending doctor, urging her to quickly find An’an’s biological father and perform a bone marrow transplant.

At this moment, Old Master Zhan and Zhan Xiaoting were silent.

She could not help but ask, “Grandpa, when will the rest of the Zhan family come back to the old residence for a gathering? I haven’t even seen them yet.”

When Old Master Zhan heard this, he immediately said, “That’s true. You and Xiaoting have been married for a while. It’s time for them to come back and introduce you to them. I’ll make arrangements.”

Tang Weiwei was overjoyed when she heard this.

This was great!

However, before she could be happy for too long, she realized that Zhan Xiaoting was looking at her coldly.

“Tang Weiwei, why are you asking so much about the Zhan family? Do you have any motive?” Zhan Xiaoting whispered into her ear.

Tang Weiwei’s heart skipped a beat.

She did not expect Zhan Xiaoting to be so sharp.

Fortunately, she had already thought of an excuse, so she said calmly, “I just feel that the topic of the child is a little dangerous and want to change the topic.”

“It better be!” Zhan Xiaoting did not comment on her words.

After the meal, Old Master Zhan asked the two of them to stay at the old residence as usual.

They had grown familiar with each other after all this time. After taking a shower at night, the two of them lay on the bed together. There was a clear boundary between them.

Tang Weiwei was exhausted after a long day of work.

It didn’t take long for her to fall asleep, but she was soon awoken by the heat.

She opened her eyes in a daze and found that someone was holding her tightly, and…

And it was a man at that!

“Ah…” Tang Weiwei woke up in shock, and her sleepiness disappeared.

“Don’t scream, it’s me…” A hoarse voice suddenly sounded.

She immediately recognized Zhan Xiaoting’s voice.

Tang Weiwei’s face darkened and she said angrily, “Zhan Xiaoting, why are you hugging me…”

Before she could finish speaking, she noticed Zhan Xiaoting’s abnormality.

His entire body was burning like a huge furnace.

She suddenly reacted.

“Master Zhan, you have a fever!”

Moreover, the fever was even worse than the last time he was at the farmhouse. If this continued, his brain would be fried.

“Don’t move. I’ll get you some medicine and call the doctor…”

Tang Weiwei pushed Zhan Xiaoting’s arm away and stood up to look for external help. Suddenly…

A pair of large hands wrapped tightly around her waist and dragged her back onto the bed, pinning her down domineeringly.

Their bodies were pressed tightly against each other. She could feel Zhan Xiaoting’s hot breath licking her skin like a tongue of fire.

Tang Weiwei trembled and asked warily.

“Zhan Xiaoting, what are you trying to do?”
