The situation has been laid out for so long, and is just starting to show some signs. If everything were to be disrupted at this point, it would truly be a losing proposition.

The investigation is the same, it needs to be approached step-by-step. You can’t eat a fat man in one bite, that’s the logic.

Now even more so, it’s not time to alert the enemy. If you scare them away, that’s no good.

As a police officer, Shen Mengqi understands this logic well, so she firmly nodded: "I know, I know what to do, don’t worry."

"Alright, I can rest assured with you handling it. Let’s go back to the office."

"Okay."

After the New Year, An Nan’s belly was getting bigger and her sleep was getting worse. Often, she would be unable to sleep the whole night, and Lin Mubai watched with heartache but had no solution. He could only stay up with her all night.

Shortly thereafter, both the pregnant woman and the pregnant woman’s father had lost weight.

No one in Lin Mubai’s family paid any attention to it, he is a man; losing some weight is no big deal. However, it was a major issue for Nannan, who was a pregnant woman and had lost weight despite her big belly.

Recently, Lan Yiqing hadn’t gone out much, saying she was keeping his wife company at home, as if he couldn’t bear the burden but could accompany her to avoid too much boredom.

An Nan saw all of this clearly and felt immensely touched.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had reached new heights in a short time.

The whole family was harmonious, making others envy them immensely.

Yet amidst this happiness, one person’s emotions were becoming increasingly complex, and that person was none other than An Jiayou, who was about to become an older brother.

He stood in the corner of the house, watching the harmonious family in the living room, feeling a bit lost. The reason for this loss came from an incident two days ago, when a man came to find him at school.

Two days ago after school, as usual, he hurried home immediately after class. He wasn’t interested in any extracurricular activities at school lately; he felt that it was better to spend those extra hours with An Nan and the child in her belly.

With this thought, he unconsciously quickened his pace.

Then, just after he had left the school gate, someone blocked his path. Confused, he looked up, and his expression quickly turned cold and defensive.

He knew this person, or had a rather special relationship with him, but he didn’t want to see him.

Precisely because he didn’t want to see him, he couldn’t show a smile.

One big and one small, the two of them exchanged glances in the air.

Still, neither spoke first.

However, An Jiayou could clearly see the obvious excitement in the eyes of the person in front of him.

And when the other party involuntarily raised his hand, Jiayou silently stepped back, with an even stronger defensive look: "Excuse me, you’re blocking my way. Could you step aside?"

"I..." I’m your Dad!

These words, An Liyang ultimately couldn’t say.

Because he knew very well in his heart that it was he who abandoned this child back then, and now what right does he have to say such words?

So he has no right.

But if he has no right, then what is his reason for standing here today?
