Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 425: Using a Child

Zhan Hanjue asked Ye Ningwan how the investigation was going, and Ye Ningwan replied smugly, "Of course I got something out of it. This meal wasn’t for nothing."

"You have a solution?" Zhan Hanjue asked.

Ye Ningwan nodded.

"What solution?" Zhan Hanjue asked again.

But Ye Ningwan pretended to be mysterious and said, "I can’t tell you. This matter is something you don’t need to worry about, I’ll handle it myself. I definitely won’t let your relationship with Leng Ziqing get tense, after all, you two are cousins."

"Alright, I won’t ask then. If Leng Ziqing asks me about it later, I can tell him that I’m not informed," Zhan Hanjue said.

The two of them went home together, and Ye Ningwan went upstairs to check on her son.

Tuantuan was reading a book, while Xiaxia was watching a cartoon.

One was reading a book and the other was watching a cartoon, yet they insisted on squeezing into one room. Who knows what they were thinking.

However, Ye Ningwan knew that it must be her son insisting on it.

Reading a book wouldn’t affect the person watching the cartoon, but watching a cartoon would affect the person reading the book.

"Don’t you think it’s noisy?"

Ye Ningwan walked to her son’s side, curiously asking in a low voice.

In the past, when he was reading, he never allowed noise.

Even when Feng Jiuzun came to him, he found him too noisy and would sometimes get angry.

"It’s not noisy, I’m very focused on my reading," Tuantuan looked up at Xiaxia and answered seriously.

Ye Ningwan was speechless, thinking to herself, "So when you’re with us, you weren’t focused while reading?"

"Mommy, what do you want to talk to me about?" Tuantuan put down his book.

Ye Ningwan said, "I came to ask you about someone. After a day at kindergarten, do you know a kid named Leng Changgong? Nickname Jiangjiang."

"I know him," Xiaxia turned her head and said.

"You know him?" Ye Ningwan was surprised.

But then she remembered that Xiaxia and Jiangjiang were kind of related. Their mothers were cousins, so they probably played together when they were young.

"Xiaxia, how do you know him?" Tuantuan immediately asked.

Xiaxia said, "He’s Jiangjiang’s older brother, of course I know him. I saw him at kindergarten yesterday and today too."

"How come I didn’t know?" Tuantuan frowned.

He and Xiaxia were at the kindergarten together, yet he didn’t know Xiaxia was interacting with someone else.

"Why are you looking for Jiangjiang’s brother?" Xiaxia looked towards Ye Ningwan.

Ye Ningwan said, "Oh, it’s nothing. It’s just that I happened to have dinner with his dad today, and he came up in conversation. I heard he’s a very well-behaved kid."

"That’s not true," Xiaxia immediately said, "He’s very mischievous and has quite a temper. When we played together before, he always bullied my brother. My mommy said he has the same temper as his mommy."

"Then you shouldn’t play with him in the future, he might bully you," Tuantuan immediately said.

Xiaxia nodded, but then said, "But he doesn’t bully me. He says I’m a little girl and boys should protect girls, so he won’t bully me."

Ye Ningwan chuckled. She didn’t expect that little kid to be a little gentleman.

Though having the same temper as Zhang Meimei seemed like he was quite temperamental too.

Which just suited her needs.

"Got it, thank you Xiaxia for telling me all this," Ye Ningwan thanked her.

Xiaxia blushed and pouted, seeming a bit annoyed.

Ye Ningwan knew she probably regretted talking to her. It seemed when she was brought back by Zhan Hanjue, Feng Qianru must have specially told her. At least, she was constantly reminded that Ye Ningwan was a bad woman.

Actually, Ye Ningwan didn’t care what Xiaxia thought of her.

In this world, some people liked her, and many hated her too.

She’s not a dollar bill, how could she expect everyone to like her?

As long as she had a clear conscience and stayed true to her original intent, that’s the only thing she could adhere to.

However, this Xiaxia was somewhat different, Tuantuan liked her a lot.

Since she’s a little girl whom her son likes, she naturally didn’t want to be disliked by her, making it difficult for her son to choose.

"Xiaxia, someone gave me a set of limited edition Disney Barbie dolls, do you like them? If you do, I’ll give them to you," Ye Ningwan asked, trying to please her.

When Xiaxia heard about the limited edition Disney dolls, her eyes immediately brightened.

But soon after, she seemed to think of something and shook her head, "I don’t like them, I can’t just take other people’s things."

"She’s not other people, she’s my mommy," Tuantuan stood up and spoke in favor of Ye Ningwan.

"But... but your mommy bullies my mommy," Xiaxia said, pouting.

Ye Ningwan explained, "Xiaxia, things between adults are complicated, not something you can understand right now. I know you believe your mommy, which is normal. But I still want to tell you, I didn’t bully your mommy. You can’t understand this now, but when you’re older, I’ll explain. Until then, please believe me. After all, you’re in my home now, at least get along with me first, so you can live with Tuantuan!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Mommy," Tuantuan nudged her.

Fearing that her words would scare Xiaxia.

And Xiaxia indeed seemed scared, pressing her lips tightly and looking at her nervously.

Ye Ningwan ignored her son, reaching out and gently touching Xiaxia’s head with a smile, "As long as you listen and behave, ’Aunty’ won’t kick you out."

"What should I do to behave?" Xiaxia asked nervously.

"Take my gift, take the Barbie dolls," Ye Ningwan said.

Xiaxia widened her eyes in surprise, hardly believing her luck.

Ye Ningwan quickly instructed a maid to bring down the Barbie doll set from her room and personally placed it in Xiaxia’s hands.

"That’s the good girl."

She reached out and touched Xiaxia’s little face, smiling as she left.

Xiaxia was overjoyed, quickly unboxing the Barbie dolls, no longer watching TV, and started playing with the dolls.

She even called Tuantuan over to play with her.

And Ye Ningwan, having learned about Jiangjiang’s temper and personality, went to find Wu Taotao.

To tell her the plan.

"You just agree to go on a date with Leng Ziqing, and tell her you’ve compromised. Since you’re considering living together in the future, have him bring his son along and try to get close to the kid. When Leng Ziqing isn’t around, be a little harsh to the kid. That kid has a bad temper, there’s a good chance he won’t like you. Then he’ll make a fuss, asking his dad to break up with you, and it won’t be your fault."

"Ah, is this plan reliable? Using a child seems a bit despicable," Wu Taotao said.

Ye Ningwan was speechless, "Leng Ziqing is using Ye Shao to threaten you, isn’t that despicable? You’re being cornered into this, so although you are driven by necessity, you need to gauge it yourself, just rile the kid up, nothing more. Kids are quick-tempered, easy to rile."

"True," Wu Taotao nodded.

"But I think you should speak to Ye Shao in advance about this. So he doesn’t find out and misunderstand later on, of course, that’s up to you," Ye Ningwan reminded.
