Chapter 221: Chapter 221: Truly good to the son

Yan Han was outright rejected, leaving a bitter taste in his heart.

After all, he has grown up with very few rejections, so this was hard to swallow.

"Maybe, I could show you our son’s playroom? It’s not fully set up yet, but our little boy seems to really like it! If you have any suggestions, feel free to share them. It’s not finished, so it’s not too late to make changes."

In an unexpected turn, Yan Han, who usually falls flat, hit the nail on the head this time. Zhu Qianying finds it hard to refuse anything related to her son.

After some hesitation, Zhu Qianying finally nodded.

Even though, she ultimately plans to take her son away.

However, she would take the child to raise and care for, not to sever ties with the Yan’s family.

The baby is still a child of the Yan’s family, so naturally, he will come to live at the Yan’s home from time to time.

"By the way, have you thought about which school to send our son to?"

Finally finding the right topic, the Eldest Young Master, Yan Han, was chatting with her while going upstairs.

"Not yet, we’ll see."

Zhu Qianying wasn’t in a rush to answer this question.

"How about I do some research, understand our son’s thoughts, screen some schools, and we can all go check them out together?"

Yan Han truly cares for his son.

It’s a far cry from his indifferent attitude towards Zhu Qianying five years ago.

Zhu Qianying attributes this difference in attitude to the magic of blood ties. As such, she doesn’t find it inappropriate, Yan Han is also the father of her son. It doesn’t it make sense for him to put his heart and effort into his upbringing?

However, even with her psychological preparedness, she was still taken aback upon seeing the playroom which was almost as big as the living room on the first floor.

The Eldest Young Master had indeed invested heavily, devoting an entire floor of the four-story house to the little boy’s playroom.

The most extravagant part was that in addition to a mini basketball court, there was also a football field.

"Our son seems to like sports, so I had these two mini fields made. Later, I’ll set up two standard-sized fields in the garden outside too. Actually, I planned to convert the house on the west side into a large playroom, but our son seems to prefer this place. So, what do you think?"

Zhu Qianying nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, these facilities are very comprehensive and all the things our son likes are included."

This playroom, at least a few hundred square meters in size, as large as several average families’ homes combined. The Eldest Young Master has extravagantly turned an area suitable for several dozen people to live into a playroom for the little master.

As his mother, what could she possibly be discontent with?

As such, Zhu Qianying had to admit.

Yan Han could be quite detestable sometimes.

But when it came to their son, he was truly amazing!

The two toured around the playroom, but Zhu Qianying didn’t offer any suggestions. Basically, everything she could think of, Yan Han had already accounted for.

As they were about to go downstairs, Zhu Qianying suddenly heard the anxious cry of the little boy and the thudding sound of his feet on the stairs, "Mommy! Mommy!"

Soon, she saw her son, sweaty and panting, at the corner of the stairs.

"Baby, I’m here!" Zhu Qianying called out to the boy.

"Mommy, I thought you had run away!" The little boy said and rushed up to hug Zhu Qianying’s waist like an arrow.

Zhu Qianying rolled her eyes secretly, wondering how bad her reputation was to warrant this.

The Yan family’s matriarch, who had been following behind, finally managed to catch up.

"Ying’er, why don’t you stay here? Our boy seems more accustomed to having you around!"

The matriarch had wanted to make this suggestion for a long time, but the timing hadn’t been right until now.

"Auntie, no need. I have to go back to work. It’s too much of a hassle to travel back and forth." Zhu Qianying declined politely.

But the real reason was clear to everyone present, except for the boy.

"But our boy...,"

The matriarch started, hesitating, but then pointed to the boy who clung to Zhu Qianying as if he feared she would run away.

Zhu Qianying glanced down at the boy nestled against her stomach, ran her fingers through his hair, and said, "Baby, do you remember what Mommy has told you?"

Zhu Qianying believed that the patriarch’s invitation was likely facilitated by their son.

Most likely, the boy had been lured by the clever persuasion of the matriarch.

After all, no matter how smart or cunning a four-year-old child, they are no match for an old woman who has experienced the ups and downs of life.

The boy moved his gaze away, looked up timidly at her, and then shook his head in a dismayed manner.

"Hmm, so does baby not believe Mommy?"

The boy blinked then shook his head again.

"Hmm, since you believe Mommy, you should stay with grandpa, grandma, and daddy, okay?"

Zhu Qianying didn’t want to involve her son in the grievances and disputes of adults. All she wanted was for him to grow up healthily under the collective care of herself and the Yan family.

Of course, she never had this kind of thought in the past few years or even a month ago.

But times have changed, the situations and conditions then and now are not the same, and naturally, her thoughts would also change.

The boy is Yan Han’s child, and he has the right to enjoy the affection of his father and grandparents.

Although she is his mother, she doesn’t have the right to help him refuse this love on his behalf. Moreover, she can’t change or eliminate their blood relationship even if she wanted to.

Their baby had a silent staring contest with her for a few seconds, finally, he obediently nodded.

"Alright... then... I’ll be a good boy. Mommy... you must remember what you said too!"

Zhu Qianying nodded cheerfully and said, "Of course, I remember!"

After getting Zhu Qianying’s promise, the boy’s initial panic subsided.

The three adults and the boy went downstairs, and had just seated themselves to have tea, when Uncle Hai walked in.

"Ying’er, what would you like for dinner? I’ll tell the chef to prepare."

Zhu Qianying however, without thinking, responded, "Uncle Hai, it’s no trouble, I still have to go back to the store!"

Her refusal insinuated that she wouldn’t be staying for dinner or spending the night.

Yan Han’s facial expression was subtly peculiar, as though wanting to say something, but was shot down by a glare from the matriarch.

Even without thinking, the matriarch could predict what her son was about to say, and certainly, it wouldn’t have been anything good.

"Since that’s the case, Ah Hai, you tell the chef to pack some soup and snacks for Ying’er to take back to the store."

Having refused to stay for dinner or sleepover, it would be inappropriate for Zhu Qianying to turn down the offer to take food.

"Thank you, Auntie!"

"A driver can take you back later, or would you prefer to drive yourself? It would be more convenient if you had a vehicle while working at the store."

Anything that could be thought of, the Yan matriarch wanted to arrange for Zhu Qianying.

However, Zhu Qianying couldn’t accept her good intentions.
