Chapter 421: Su Mengyu wants to raise a little Jiang Bao!
Xie Qingyi was furious, and to make matters worse, Su Mengyu was there. This illegitimate child had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. What was Su Mengyu going to think? They had finally gotten a little bit of a relationship, and she had to ruin it?
Xie Qingyi was so angry she almost pinched his philtrum. She said sternly, "Zhan Yanxun, Miss Su is here too. Be mindful of your behavior. Send this child back to where he came from. Anyway, he has nothing to do with the Zhan family."
Although Xie Qingyi thought the child was quite cute, she wanted her son to marry Su Mengyu, so the child couldn't be her son's.
Little Jiangbao: What a coincidence, I don't want the surname Zhan either! Don't come near me!
At this moment, Yan Lan heard the commotion and hurried over. Staring at the child in Zhan Yanxun's arms, she said with a forced smile, "This child is quite cute. I wonder if it's a boy or a girl?"
Yan Lan felt very uncomfortable, as her son was now the only grandchild of the Zhan family.
If this child were a boy, he absolutely could not stay in the Zhan family and would be an obstacle to her son's path.
Zhan Yanxun didn't give Yan Lan a chance and walked straight out of the Zhan family hall, leaving Xie Qingyi dumbfounded.
"Zhan Yanxun, where are you going?"
Zhan Yanxun said coldly, "My daughter doesn't want to stay here either; this smoky environment is affecting her health!"
After treatment and a short rest, Zhan Yanxun's injuries had healed somewhat, and he planned to take Xiao Jiangbao directly to Tan Palace.
Tan Palace was a large, single-level apartment where he lived alone.
In his previous life, Zhan Yanxun lived almost all his time in the Tan Palace. In this life, Jiang Qianhui often returned to the Zhan family mansion, but now that Jiang Qianhui is gone, returning to the Zhan family mansion is no longer meaningful.
Little Jiang Bao was overjoyed when her scumbag father picked her up and left.
Little Jiang Bao: That scumbag dad is so handsome, he knows she doesn't like being here. Hehe, goodbye. Bad grandma, and bad auntie!
Xie Qingyi shouted at the top of her lungs, "Zhan Yanxun, how can you say that the house is a mess? Are you implying that the house isn't good enough for that little brat?"
Yan Lan quickly reassured her, "Mom, it's alright. She was just an illegitimate child. It's okay that she's gone."
Xie Qingyi glared at her fiercely and said, "What are you saying? Do you think my Zhan family favors boys over girls? That wasn't even a child of the Zhan family. Zhan Yanxun doesn't have any illegitimate daughters. Watch your mouth!"
Xie Qingyi glared fiercely at Yan Lan. Yan Lan knew that Xie Qingyi was only saying this on purpose because Su Mengyu was there.
Su Mengyu, trying to put her in her place before even stepping inside! Let's see how she tricked Jiang Qianhui back then. Su Mengyu is just as bad!
Su Mengyu didn't have time to pay attention to their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflict. She watched Zhan Yanxun leave with the child, and thinking that Zhan Yanxun was still injured, she was afraid it was not safe for him to leave with the child like this.
"Miss Su, please don't let your imagination run wild..."
Before Xie Qingyi could finish speaking, Su Mengyu ran off to chase after Zhan Yanxun.
Xie Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and Yan Lan said from the side, "Isn't this Miss Su born into a prestigious family? How can she be so rude? She ran away before you finished speaking. It's really disrespectful to you."
Xie Qingyi glared at Yan Lan and said, "Didn't you see she went to chase Yan Xun? That proves there's still a chance. If you keep talking nonsense, watch out for your allowance this month!"
Xie Qingyi finished speaking and then it was done, leaving Yan Lan standing there with an ugly expression.
The old woman even threatened her; she'd like to see how long she could remain arrogant.
Yan Lan's gaze fell on Xie Qingyi's teacup, her eyes growing increasingly cold.
Su Mengyu caught up with Zhan Yanxun and said anxiously, "Zhan Yanxun, where are you taking the child? Let me drive you."
"No need, I can manage on my own."
"Of course I know you can, but you're injured, and the child's safety is more important than anything else, isn't it? Let me drive for you."
Little Jiangbao: Let the pretty lady drive, my life is very important!
Zhan Yanxun stopped refusing, handed the car keys to Su Mengyu, and sat in the back seat with Xiao Jiangbao in his arms.
Taking the car keys, Su Mengyu was very happy. This meant that Zhan Yanxun still considered her a friend and trusted her.
Su Mengyu drove Zhan Yanxun to the Tan Palace parking garage. Zhan Yanxun said, "Go out and take a taxi. The company will reimburse the fare!"
After Zhan Yanxun finished speaking, he picked up Xiao Jiangbao and was about to leave, but Su Mengyu stopped him and asked, "Have you prepared baby formula and diapers?"
"No."
"Have you hired a nanny?"
"I'll have someone find a nanny and arrange her daily necessities in a bit."
Su Mengyu said, "Good nannies are hard to find, especially for taking care of such young children. You have to be very careful when choosing a nanny, and you can't just pick one randomly."
Zhan Yanxun frowned slightly; he felt that Su Mengyu's words made sense.
He can't just hire any nanny for the child; she has to be serious and responsible.
“I can take care of her first, and then find a suitable nanny.”
"But how can a grown man like you take care of such a small child? Besides, you don't even have formula or diapers. Do you even know how to make formula?"
Zhan Yanxun was stumped; he truly didn't know how to make milk. Furthermore, Tan Palace was his private domain; he didn't even employ any servants, only a part-time cleaner.
Seeing that Zhan Yanxun did not answer, Su Mengyu knew that Zhan Yanxun would not take care of children.
"Until you find a suitable nanny, I'll take care of your child for you. I have a childcare certificate."
Upon hearing Su Mengyu's words, Zhan Yanxun frowned slightly, a hint of suspicion flashing in his deep eyes. She was Su Mengyu, the eldest daughter of the Su family! The eldest daughter of the Su family, did she have a childcare certificate?
Su Mengyu felt a little embarrassed when she sensed that Zhan Yanxun was looking at her strangely.
After all, she knew that it was quite unbelievable that a socialite of her status, a beauty pageant winner, would have a maternity certificate.
She had already planned her life, thinking that she would marry Xun Jing and have two children with him, preferably a boy and a girl. She even took a childcare certificate exam in the hope that she could take better care of the children. Now that she thinks about it, it's really a bit embarrassing!
Su Mengyu said guiltily, "Why are you looking at me like that? It's always good to have more skills. Besides, I'm helping you take care of this child to repay your life-saving grace. After all, if it weren't for you last time, I'd probably be ashes by now. Give me a chance to repay you, because I, Su Mengyu, hate owing people favors!"
Su Mengyu looked at Zhan Yanxun with a stubborn gaze. She really wanted to repay Zhan Yanxun for saving her life. She admitted that she had fallen for Zhan Yanxun.
However, Zhan Yanxun was certain that the person he liked was Jiang Qianhui, and she didn't want to get involved in a love affair that didn't belong to her.
She just thought the child was cute, and besides, Zhan Yanxun, a grown man, simply couldn't take care of a child.
Little Jiangbao: The pretty older sister is a bit more reliable than the scumbag daddy, but it would be even better if she could be sent back to her mommy and rich daddy.
"Don't even think about it."
