"Fine, whatever you want. I won't say anything else for now. I'm busy." Tao Ran hurriedly hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Lin Qian'er lowered her head and asked, "Can't you go pick An Xin up?"

"Yeah, I have to take the bus. Qian'er, let's go quickly." Tao Tian was anxious as he pulled Lin Qian'er to leave.

"Miss An, how about … I send you off?" Lei Zichen finally got his chance, how could he let it go so easily.

"Forget it, we're afraid that someone will take their revenge for no reason." Lin Qian'er said quickly.

"Oh? "Miss Lin seems to be very unhappy today. Is there something wrong with her?"

"No, Lei Dong, I'm really worried. Can you step aside for now?" Thinking about what Qi Xue'er had said this afternoon, Tao Tian really did. He didn't have the slightest intention of going against Lei Zichen.

"You're anxious. Then you should have me give it to you." As Lei Zichen spoke, a devilish smile appeared on his face. After they parted ways, they met once again. It was a smile that was unfamiliar to Tao Tian.

Without saying anything further, he pulled at Tao Tian's hand and quickly ran over to the Ferrari who had just arrived. Then, he forcefully shoved Tao Tian into it.

He got into the driver's seat and said, "Let's go." Lei Zichen smiled and started the car.

As Tao Tian sat in the car, he suddenly came to a realization. It was as if nothing had changed. It was still a familiar smell. It was the smell of the car perfume that Lei Zichen always loved.

Familiar yet unfamiliar people, familiar yet strange things.

"Miss Lin, you come along as well. I am very willing to improve the bad impression I have in your heart." The car stopped in front of Lin Qian'er. Lei Zichen rolled down the window and smiled at the confused Lin Qian'er.

"This …" Lin Qian'er hesitated. After all, she was in a bad mood earlier.

"Come up, Qian'Er." Tao Tian waved at Lin Qian'er. She didn't want to be alone with Lei Zichen. Ever since their reunion, every single time they were alone together was enough to suffocate her. She might still be in love with him, but he didn't love her.

"Tian …" "Ugh …" "Miss An, is your wound better now?" Seeing Tao Tian stick to the door handle at his side, frowning as if he was deep in thought, Lei Zichen coughed dryly twice to break the silence.

"Thank you for your concern, Director Lei. I'm fine now." Tao Tian nodded his head in thanks. The atmosphere was still silent.

"Alright, alright. Just leave me here." They didn't go far before they arrived at the outskirts of Lin Qian'er's house.

"Qian'er, why don't we send you to your doorstep?" Tao Tian didn't want Lin Qian'er to get out of the car so quickly.

"No need. It's just a few steps. Hurry up and fetch An An. Also, An Xin, you have to be careful." Lin Qian'er looked at Lei Zichen, who was standing beside Tao Tian, with a guarded expression on her face.

"It's fine, don't worry." Tao Tian patted Lin Qian'er's hand, and smiled, "You should also be careful of your car." After saying that, he waved goodbye with both hands, and the car started slowly.

"Cough, cough." Lei Zichen coughed twice, trying to break the silence between the two of them.

"Uh, what did Miss Lin mean by those words just now?" Lei Zichen asked.

"It's nothing. Qian'Er is a straightforward person. Don't take it to heart if she says that she has offended Lei Dong." Tao Tian remained in the same position as he was holding the door handle. He leaned his face towards the window and said with an expressionless face.

"How could that be?" Lei Zichen smiled, "What should we do next?" These past few days, Lei Zichen had toured the entire S City. This was once a promise between them, but now, things had changed. He wanted to see exactly what kind of city was this that was dragging the footsteps of Tao Tian.

"Turn left." Tao Tian pointed his finger. Thanks to Ye Ning Tian's help, An An was able to learn in the city's best quality kindergarten.

Lei Zichen turned to the left, still silent.

"Sigh, I'm finally there." Seeing the red sign of the kindergarten from afar, Tao Tian shouted loudly.

"There it is." Thinking that he was about to see little An An, Tao Tian's face no longer showed any signs of fatigue, and he immediately became spirited.

Lei Zichen secretly glanced at the side of Tao Tian's face. He was also infected by her excitement. He also laughed. This little girl, who had gone from being a young miss to a young woman today, seemed to have become even happier.

The car had just stabilized itself when Tao Yao hurriedly rushed out of the car. She really couldn't wait to see her little devil.

"Teacher, where's An'an?" As soon as Tao Tian entered the classroom, he started to look around for An'an. After locking up the car, Lei Zichen, who was behind him, also started to look for An Xin's little figure in the classroom.

"Mother An An, this Friday is our kindergarten's Family Day. I hope you can accompany An An." The teacher said politely.

"Friday, right? Okay, no problem." Tao Yao agreed without a second thought. Her own childhood had been cold and tasteless, so she hoped that she would give An An An everything she could give in her childhood.

"An An, hurry and let mom see." Seeing Anthea running towards her with his unique bag of dreams, Tao Tian quickly knelt on the ground to greet her little devil.

"Mommy, we're family on Friday, so other people would come over to play with daddy's mommy. Can you help me ask Daddy if he can come over to see you?" Anthea pursed her lips and spoke in a low voice, as if she had done something wrong.

"This …" Tao Tian revealed a troubled expression while Lei Zichen, who was standing beside him, was filled with interest. He urgently wanted to know, just who was An An's father.

Tao Tian forgot about Lei Zichen who was behind him, and kept thinking about how to deal with this. For a moment, he was silent.

Mommy." An An An gently shook Tao Tian's sleeves, "Can you let Father come and see me? He's always catching bad people. He never came to see An An. Has he already forgotten about An An?" "The more An An became excited, the faster Tao Tian would be shaken.

"Mommy, I've never seen what Daddy looks like before. Does Daddy only want to catch bad guys? He doesn't like peace at all." An'an seemed to be wronged, her small mouth pouting.

"Ann, good girl, it's not like that, it's not like that." Tao Tian didn't know what to do because of An An's sudden mood. Recently, he had been asking questions about his father more and more frequently, causing Tao Tian to be at a complete loss.

"An An, be good. Daddy really loves you, but …"

"No, I want Father's." An An didn't wait for Tao Tian to explain. He loudly cried out. In front of everyone's eyes, Tao Tian was even more helpless.

"An An, be good. An, don't cry." Tao Tian's eyes reddened as he completely forgot about Lei Zichen behind him.

Tao Tian held An An in his arms. She had never been as helpless as this. If she had known earlier, bringing him into this world and experiencing so much bitterness, she would have left him in heaven.

She already knew how cold and warm the human world was, wasn't that enough? Why bring such a lovely baby into this world to suffer?

"Yao Yao, let's go home and talk. There are a lot of people here." Noticing the gaze of the surrounding people, Lei Zichen bent down and whispered into Tao Tian's ear.

The more he heard, the more confused he became. So this brat had never met his father.

Tao Tian didn't say anything and only nodded his head. He picked up An An Xin who was still crying and said, "Good An An. Uncle will take you home, okay?" Lei Zichen wiped away the tears on An An's face and said with a smile.

"Uncle …" Uncle... "Alright." An'an sobbed softly, not forgetting to greet Lei Zichen.

"Alright, An An's best." Seeing the emaciated Tao Tian hugging little An, this mother and son pair really made one want to uncontrollably cherish them.

Lei Zichen opened the car door for Tao Tian and let him sit in the front passenger seat. He then got into the driver's seat and slowly started the car. With his baby in the car, Lei Zichen drove with extreme caution.

Tao Tian hugged An's arms as he blankly stared into the distance. This car, this kind of home, should have belonged to the three of them. Why did it end up in such a disintegrated state?

"Zichen …" Tao Tian frowned. She didn't want An An to be so pitiful anymore. She wanted to speak the truth. Even if they couldn't reunite, she wanted An An to be a child with a father from now on.

"What!" Seeing Tao Tian changing his way of addressing him, Lei Zichen's face was filled with joy.

"Actually …" Tao Yao shook An An's chubby little hand. An An was a bit tired from crying and was dozing off while leaning on his mother's body.

Ring, ring, ring …"

"Ah, sorry." Lei Zichen picked up the call. Indeed, it was Qi Xue'er.

Seeing Lei Zichen pick up the phone, Tao Tian frowned as he looked around. Why, why from the start till now, when they were clearly very close, yet seemingly separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, what Qi Xue'er said to her today, although it sounded ridiculous to her, was not illogical. Lei Zichen was no longer the Lei Zichen from back then, he had changed a batch of women every three months, so what would happen if they recognized each other? She would definitely not return to Yan City with him. What about her? Who would care about her feelings?

We're not the same as we were before. Everything was just a slip of the hand. I'm sorry for the peace …

Tao Tian once again tried to speak but hesitated, hiding the truth from the past.

On the other side, Qi Xue'er wanted to know where Lei Zichen was and why he had disappeared so easily.

Compared to Qi Xue'er, he was much luckier. Tao Tian thought to himself that he was living for himself and his baby, not for any kind of boring power status, or to keep swindling others.

Lei Zichen tried to console her. He had always been like this. Whenever he was in a good mood, he could be patient and coax her. Whenever he was in a bad mood, he would explode with rage.

After the call ended, Lei Zichen turned around and looked at Tao Tian, "Yao Yao, you …" What was it you wanted to say just now? "

"Nothing." Tao Tian hugged the sleeping An An An and reluctantly smiled as he said this.

"It's really nothing."

"So it's like that." Lei Zichen didn't say anything and just continued driving.

Not long later, the two of them arrived at Tao Tian's house.

"Lei Dong, thank you, I won't ask you to come upstairs to do it," Tao Tian carried An An and wanted to go upstairs, but she didn't feel the same way. Originally, the scene today should have appeared in her life every day if it was safe, but today, everything seemed like an unattainable dream, more like nonsense.
