Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 440: Wanting a Baby Girl

Ye Ningwan hadn’t come to Heping Road for a long time. Since the downfall of the Ye Family, her second uncle’s family had moved here.

The last time she came was several years ago.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, there was such a significant change here.

The old alleys were gone, and naturally, the old houses were gone too. Now, it was all neatly planned little villas in rows.

It looked quite nice.

However, she couldn’t find her second uncle’s house anymore.

With so many new houses, how would she know which one it was?

According to her memory, she found this house, but it was entirely different from what she had imagined. She was too embarrassed to knock on the door.

Luckily, someone inside came out and saw her with a surprised expression.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

A woman in her fifties came out.

Ye Ningwan quickly responded politely, "Hello, I’m looking for a relative. But there’s been so much change here that I don’t know where he lives now. I remembered it being around here, but it seems there’s been redevelopment."

"This place was redeveloped and rebuilt two years ago. Some of the people who used to live here have moved, while others still live in this area. But it’s certainly not in the original location. What is the name of this relative you’re looking for? Maybe I know them. I’ve lived here for many years, so if it’s a neighbor, I might know something."

"His surname is Ye, Ye Henghuang," Ye Ningwan said.

Upon hearing the name Ye Henghuang, the woman frowned, her face turning sour as she said, "Oh, you’re looking for that gambler. That gambler hasn’t lived here for a long time. He originally had three resettlement houses, and he got the most compensation from this area. Unfortunately, he couldn’t resist temptation and gambled it all away. All three houses were lost, and the compensation was gambled away to the last cent. He also accrued significant debt. Who knows under which bridge he might be hiding now, barely surviving."

"Thank you for telling me this," Ye Ningwan thanked awkwardly.

She frowned again, not expecting her second uncle’s family to have fallen to such a state.

Her second uncle never achieved much, but at least he was a decent person.

How could he have gotten into gambling? This matter was really strange.

"You should hurry and leave! It’s better not to associate with such relatives. Otherwise, when you find them, they might burden you," the woman advised her.

Ye Ningwan nodded and could only leave for now.

However, she couldn’t let go of this issue in her heart.

When she returned home, Zhan Hanjue was also home and noticed something was wrong with her. He thought Mrs. Leng had been rude to her and quickly asked, "What’s wrong? Was she rude to you again?"

Ye Ningwan said, "No, she’s sick now and needs me. How could she be rude to me? It’s something else. By the way, I want to ask you for a favor."

"Between us, do we still need to use the word ’favor’?" Zhan Hanjue said, smiling as he held her hand.

Ye Ningwan told him about her second uncle’s situation.

Zhan Hanjue frowned and said, "I know that place. It was redeveloped two years ago, and the people there got quite a bit of compensation. I didn’t expect your second uncle to squander it all. I remember he used to be quite a stable person."

"Exactly, who would have thought he’d fall to this point? He also has a pair of children. Today I heard from Zhang Meimei that Ye Ya is also having a tough time. She asked to borrow money, and Zhang Meimei didn’t want to get involved in such matters but still wanted to help her, so she told me."

"I’ll have someone look for them. It should be easy to find them." Zhan Hanjue said.

Ye Ningwan smiled wryly, "Do you think I’m just making trouble for myself out of boredom? The Ye Family wasn’t particularly nice to me before, yet I still care about them."

"No, you are the type to repay kindness and seek vengeance. I admire your straightforward character. I know you’re not doing this for the Ye Family, but because Ye Henghuang and his wife were good to you. That’s why you don’t want to ignore it. I understand your kindness," Zhan Hanjue said, holding her close.

Ye Ningwan leaned against his chest in relief.

"Thank you for understanding me."

"You’re hugging again, hmph." Xiaxia came downstairs, saw the two of them, stomped her foot in annoyance, and rushed back upstairs.

Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue laughed.

Zhan Hanjue said, "I wonder if that little girl understands or not?"

"Of course she understands. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t always try to sow discord between us. It seems Feng Qianru taught her well." Ye Ningwan said.

"If you don’t like having her around, I can send her back," Zhan Hanjue said.

Ye Ningwan replied, "It’s not about whether I like her or not, it’s whether your son does. If you send her away, your son will definitely cause a fuss. At such a young age, you wouldn’t want to create a father-son estrangement, right?"

"Indeed, Tuantuan is really good to Xiaxia. Speaking of which, when will we have a little girl? A little girl is great, like a little cotton-padded jacket. Besides, once Tuantuan has his own sister, he probably won’t be so fixated on Xiaxia."

"Why are you talking about having a second child again? Such matters should be left to nature." Ye Ningwan bit her lip and said.

Zhan Hanjue laughed and whispered in her ear, "Hmm, you’re right, it should be left to nature. However, while success is in heaven’s hands, planning is in human hands. We should still make an effort so that heaven will give us a chance."

Ye Ningwan blushed.

She naturally knew what he meant by making an effort.

She turned around, wrapped her arms around his neck, her face flushing as she coyly asked, "Do you have time tonight?"

"Of course." Zhan Hanjue’s hands slipped lower, lifting her up as he carried her upstairs.

The next day, Zhan Hanjue had someone investigate Ye Henghuang’s situation and soon had news.

"This is the new address of Ye Henghuang’s family, in the suburbs. It should be a rental house. This area is chaotic. If you’re going there, I’ll have Wu accompany you. I’d love to go with you, but I have work today."

Zhan Hanjue apologized to her sincerely.

Ye Ningwan said, "It’s alright, you don’t need to accompany me for such a small matter. I happen to have time, and I’ll take Wu with me. Don’t worry. Focus on your work and try to resolve the issues quickly. That way, you can spend more time with me and Tuantuan."

"Don’t worry." Zhan Hanjue smiled and kissed her cheek.

After breakfast, Ye Ningwan took Wu to the address given by Zhan Hanjue. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

As expected, it was the suburbs, and the houses had flat roofs.

There were two large construction sites nearby, and most of the people renting houses here were construction workers.

Most of them were men, walking around shirtless in shorts, coming and going without a care in the world.

When they saw someone like Ye Ningwan coming in, they all showed surprised and lecherous looks.

Even before entering, the ground was littered with everyday garbage.

A chaotic mess of things everywhere.

Even though there were trash bins nearby, many people just tossed their trash by the roadside.

As a result, the street constantly reeked of foul odors.

The nauseating smell filled the air, making it unbearable.
