Chapter 90: The Estrangement of Yan Yinlan

When Yan Zhiyuan heard that Lu An’an had decided to give up the lawsuit, he was completely relieved.

It was no big deal letting Yan Xiu leave the Yan Corporation. As long as he could return home safely, there would always be a chance for him to return to the corporation in the future.

Yan Xiu returned home dejectedly. When he learned that he had been dismissed, he regretted being so foolish over a woman even more.

However, the trauma he had left on Lu An’an was getting more serious.

Yan Yunge had always been there to help, so even if Lu An’an were very scared, she would be able to calm down as long as the man hugged her.

However, after Yan Xiu returned home, Lu An’an began to have nightmares again.

She always dreamed of Yan Xiu forcing the glass of alcohol down her throat, and she would wake up screaming.

Yan Yunge did not know how to ease her fear, so he could only stay by her side quietly. Every day, he would hug her to sleep and let her relax.

Yan Yinlan and Yan Yunge’s mother also knew of what happened, and they often cheered Lu An’an up at home.

Lu An’an’s trauma slowly healed, and her mood was much better.

However, when Han Ziyuan knew about this and that Yan Yunge had not been to work, she frequently started going to the Yan family’s house.

No matter what, she was still Yan Yinlan’s mother, and Yan Yunge could not stop her from coming.

Han Ziyuan thought that the child would naturally be close to her since she had given birth to him. However, after she arrived at the Yan family’s house, Yan Yinlan would always stick to Lu An’an, making it seem like she was the extra one.

......

“Yinlan, do you want to come over and stack the blocks with Mom?” Han Ziyuan smiled and called out to the Little Fatty, who was reading with Lu An’an on the sofa.

Yan Yinlan felt a little helpless, “I want to stay here to read books, is that alright?”

Han Ziyuan nodded with a smile, but deep down, she hated Lu An’an even more.

Her child wouldn’t have identified another woman as his mom if it weren’t for Lu An’an.

“Yunge, let’s talk.” She turned around and called out to Yan Yunge.

Yan Yunge was a little surprised, but he still followed her into the study room.

Lu An’an and Yan Yinlan both stopped what they were doing and frowned as they looked in the direction of the study room.

Although she knew their relationship, Lu An’an still felt uncomfortable when she saw Yan Yunge and Han Ziyuan together.

“Yunge, I’m Yinlan’s biological mother. Can you let Lu An’an leave for a while, and the two of us can play with the child?” She felt that what she said was reasonable, and there was even a pained expression on her face.

Yan Yunge found what she said funny, “You’ve never taken care of this child since birth, so naturally, he won’t be too close to you.”

“But I had no choice...” Han Ziyuan frowned as if she really liked Yan Yinlan.

“No matter the reason, now that Yan Yinlan has grown up, it’s his choice who he likes. Even if An’an isn’t around, he might not necessarily play with you.” Yan Yunge said mercilessly, and he walked out of the study room.

Han Ziyuan was stunned for a moment and then clenched her fists.

She had always thought that Yan Yinlan would be the one to bridge the gap between her and Yan Yunge. She did not expect that it was that ingrate who held her up!

At this moment, Han Ziyuan was very regretful. She should not have given birth to that child in the first place!

“Dad, where have you been?” Yan Yinlan looked over with a scrutinizing gaze. “Mom and I have been waiting for you for a long time.”

“Nothing much. Hurry up and read.” Yan Yunge smiled. “Auntie Han looked for me for a small matter.”

Lu An’an lowered her head and did not want to listen to him anymore.

Yan Yinlan also continued to read. Although he knew that she was his biological mother, in his heart, she felt more like an auntie who was not that close to him.
