here was a hint of sadness she couldn't hide. "You don't need to say it, I know. You mistreat the second wife and use Hanchuan like a dog. But you despise me because you think I outmaneuvered you."In...Hearing Xia Yihang's words, Meng Lan made a hesitant expression.

But she didn't think for long before replying in a low voice, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Xia Gege."

Although the company also hired a nanny for her.

But after all, they didn't know each other well, so it was inevitable that they would bump into each other and get hurt. The little kids didn't understand how to say they were in pain, Menglan thought about it and felt very uneasy.

"You don't need to be so polite, silly." Xia Yihang shook her head helplessly and said earnestly, "Besides, you're just on a business trip. You won't be away from Yun City for too long, right"

Hearing the implication in his words, Menglan's eyes flashed with a hint of embarrassment.

But soon, she was able to compose herself, managing a strained smile. "Of course, I won't be gone for too long. After all, I can't leave Niancheng for too long."

"I'll take good care of Niance," Xia Yihang gently raised her hand, tightly gripping her back, her tone filled with sincerity. "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back with the child."

I was with the child...

Dream Lan looked at the back of his tightly held hand, her eyes complex to the extreme. After thinking for a moment, she still broke free from Xia Yihan's hand.

To be honest.

She wasn't stupid; she could clearly see the different feelings Xia Yichen had for her over the past few years.

From the bottom of his heart, he understood that she only saw Xia Yihang as a warm and caring brother. There was no other emotion involved.

"Mommy, Uncle Xia, look what we bought! Children's set!" Just then, Liu Niancheng and Jiaojiao each holding a small tray, walked towards them.

"Is that so You're really capable!" Meng Lan looked at them, a gentle smile on her face.

Then, she and Xia Yihang stood up simultaneously, helping the children carry trays towards the dining table.

All of these are foods that young children like to eat. Liu Niancheng and Jiaojiao each held a hamburger, with their mouths smeared with cream, giggling with glee - they were incredibly cute.

Menglan, after helping the two children finish their meal and wiping their lips with napkins, spoke earnestly:

" Niancheng, Mommy will be going on a business trip to Haicheng tomorrow for about a week. After much thought, I still think it's best to entrust you to Uncle Yihan. Is that okay"

"Good, no problem!" Liu Niancheng hurriedly replied with a smile.

Seeing that her son wasn't repulsed, Meng Lan's heart also filled with joy. She earnestly instructed him,

"I'm leaving Jiajia's care to you now, you little rascal. You absolutely cannot bully your sister, understand"

"No way!" Liu Niancheng was busy shoving a hamburger into his mouth, his little lips puffed out in a ball, mumbling an explanation, "I'll be good to my little sister, even if I only have one hamburger, I'll share it with her~"

At the sight of his adorable appearance, everyone burst into laughter.

"Don't worry, I'm very confident in Niancheng's ability. With me looking after them, nothing bad will happen." Xia Yihang saw the worry in Menglan's eyes and reassured her with a stronger tone.

Menglan smirked at him, a smile playing on her lips.

She was still quite confident in Xia Yichan's ability to handle things. It was only a week anyway, it would be over soon.

……

The next day.

Today is Saturday, Liu Niancheng is still sleeping in bed, while Menglan has already gotten up, packed her luggage, and even prepared breakfast, placing it on the table.

Liu Niancheng had a sensitive stomach, so he had to be very careful about his diet. Menglan wrote some precautions on a piece of paper and stuck them on the refrigerator.

After doing all of this, she left some living expenses on the table and then walked out the door.

As soon as he arrived at the door with his luggage, he saw Xia Yihang's car parked outside. She was wearing a black and white casual outfit and leaning against her car.

"Alright, I've just arrived too and was about to come in and call you." With that, he stepped forward and took the suitcase from Menglan's hand.

Menglan raised her eyes, looking at him in surprise, "How did you come I can go to the airport myself."

"How could I let you go alone" Xia Yihang's lips curled into a gentle smile. "Don't be so polite, after sending you off, I can just go buy breakfast and come back to take care of the two children."

Saying that, he forcefully placed the suitcase in the trunk and gestured with his eyes for Menglan to get in the car.

"Then thank you, Xia Gege," Menglan said with gratitude. She wasn't being polite and sat in the car.

Autumn is the most desolate season of the year. The trees lining the roads have already shed their leaves, which, coupled with the vehicles rushing along the streets, create a beauty that is indescribable.

Along the way, to relieve Menglan's psychological pressure, Xia Yichen kept chattering with her about everyday things.

Soon, the car came to a smooth stop at the airport entrance.

Meng Lan said "thank you" again and was about to open the car door, but Xia Yihan suddenly called her name.

"Just a moment."

"Is there something else" Meng Lan turned her head, looking at him with confusion.

And Xia Yihang took out a small medicine box from the trunk and handed it to her, thoughtfully explaining, "I heard that the weather in Haicheng will be a bit hotter. There are anti-insect bracelets and some commonly used medicines inside. I hope you don't need them, but it's always good to have them on hand."

Looking at his thoughtful actions, Menglan's heart felt as if it were being watered by a warm current, an indescribable warmth.

"Thank..."

Just as she was about to speak, Xia Yihang suddenly reached out a finger and lightly pressed it against her lips. “Don’t thank me anymore,” she said. “You should know that I don’t want to hear those words.”

"I..."

Meng Lan's eyes dodged slightly.

Xia Yichan noticed this slight change in her, but he seized the opportunity and seriously said,

"I heard from Feng Mu that your name used to be Xiaorui, right It's a beautiful name. I think you must have had many experiences to change your name and bring your child to Yun City."

"Brother Xia, don't say any more."

When reminiscing about the past, Menglan's eyes welled up with a hint of bitterness.

"Alright, let's not dwell on the past." Xia Yichan continued to remind her, "No matter what you were like before, or whatever happened, I think those must be very bad memories, otherwise you wouldn't come here alone."

"From the moment I met you, I knew you were a strong girl. Seeing you carrying Niancheng all by yourself, I feel heartbroken for you, but at the same time, I'm starting to develop feelings for you."

"…"

After all... I ended up talking about this topic.

Mulan's heart skipped a beat. She thought for a moment, then blurted out

"Summer, perhaps this is just an illusion created because you've spent so much time with me and Niancheng. Maybe this... isn't love after all."

Hearing her words, Xia Yihang couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Meng Lan, I'm an adult, I'm not sure if I love you or not"

"...."

Menglan didn't know how to answer, she lowered her head, her palms clenched into fists.
