Fu Yan Ting couldn't understand what he did wrong that made Yan Xi so resistant to any intimacy with him.
Yan Xi's attitude left Fu Yan Ting in a foul mood throughout the journey back to the old mansion.
As soon as he entered, he was met with congratulatory remarks from everyone.
Fu Yan Ting frowned and went to the front hall, where Yan Zi Tong sat alone, being served with food and drinks.
Fu Yan Ting sneered and immediately took a photo, sending it to Yan Xi.
Yan Xi had been quite calm on her way back to the hotel, but upon seeing the photo of Yan Zi Tong, she instantly lost her composure.
Yan Xi had no mood to reply to messages and directly called Fu Yan Ting, only to find that she was still on his blacklist.
Angrily, Yan Xi sent Fu Yan Ting a message, ordering him to remove her from the blacklist.
This time, with Yan Zi Tong present and giving him leverage, Fu Yan Ting naturally did as Yan Xi said.
As soon as Yan Xi's phone number was unblocked, her call came through.
Fu Yan Ting calmly answered the phone.
Yan Xi questioned him, "Fu Yan Ting, where is my son? What have you done to him? What do you want? He's just a child. If you have a problem, come at me. What kind of capability is it to trouble a child?"
"He came to me himself, and he said he was my son. Yan Xi, were you abandoned by Xiang Jing Chen and couldn't find anyone to take you in, so you're asking me to be the scapegoat?"
What did he mean by asking him to be the scapegoat?
Yan Zi Tong was Fu Yan Ting's child.
Yan Xi had no relationship with Xiang Jing Chen at all.
However, hearing Fu Yan Ting's attitude, Yan Xi no longer intended to let Yan Zi Tong acknowledge him as his father.
Although she didn't know why Yan Zi Tong was with Fu Yan Ting, Yan Xi had made up her mind and wouldn't let them recognize each other as father and son.
Back then, when Yan Xi resolutely decided to divorce Fu Yan Ting and quietly give birth to the child alone, she had sworn that she would take care of the child by herself and didn't need Fu Yan Ting to know of the child's existence.
If it weren't for Fei Fei, Yan Xi would never have returned to Yan Cheng in her life.
"Fu Yan Ting, give me back my son. He has nothing to do with you."
Hearing Yan Xi's words, Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but sneer, completely disbelieving her.
If there was no connection, why would this brat find his way to the Fu family's old mansion? Now, his grandmother already knew he had such a grown son. Yan Xi was truly remarkable.
Knowing that his grandmother's wish all these years was to see Fu Yan Ting married and have children, and to hold her great-grandchild.
He also wanted Yan Zi Tong to return to Mu Qing Xiang's side.
Thinking of this, Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"He's at the Fu family's old mansion right now, and my grandmother already knows about this. Do you think you can keep it a secret?"
Hearing Fu Yan Ting's words, Yan Xi was extremely panicked. No, she couldn't let his family know Yan Zi Tong's identity, otherwise, they would definitely fight for custody with her.
After having a child, the child became Yan Xi's soft spot. Yan Xi dared not take any risks for her child.
"Fu Yan Ting, I beg you, please give me back my son, alright? If I offended you in any way, I can apologize. I'll do anything you ask, but please, give Zi Tong back to me."
Fu Yan Ting raised an eyebrow, listening to Yan Xi's words with great interest.
Beg?
For a bastard child, Yan Xi was actually begging him.
She was even compromising in front of Fu Yan Ting, saying she would do anything.
It seemed this child was indeed very important to Yan Xi.
Since that was the case, Fu Yan Ting certainly wouldn't let her have her way.
Thinking of this, Fu Yan Ting's eyes gradually darkened.
"It's not impossible to let you have your son back. I'll give you ten minutes. You come to the old mansion immediately and explain everything to Grandma."
"Fu Yan Ting, I can't go to the old mansion. I can't appear before your grandmother. After all, we're divorced, and I don't want her to misunderstand our relationship."
"That's your problem, it has nothing to do with me. This matter has already alerted Grandma. If you don't come and explain in person, she will continue to misunderstand. By then, if the misunderstanding grows, I won't be able to help you."
After saying that, Fu Yan Ting hung up the phone.
Yan Xi had no choice but to personally go to the Fu family's old mansion.
However, thinking of Mu Qing Xiang's attitude towards Yan Xi five years ago, Yan Xi didn't know how to face her.
Yan Xi also knew very well that Mu Qing Xiang didn't want to see her.
But for Yan Zi Tong, Yan Xi had no other choice.
Ten minutes later, Yan Xi arrived at the Fu family's old mansion. Just as she reached the entrance, she saw the family doctor leaving, holding a bottle in his hand.
Yan Xi's expression changed drastically as she thought of Fu Yan Ting's words.
Had Mu Qing Xiang already done a DNA test on the child so quickly?
No, she couldn't let the Fu family know about Yan Zi Tong's existence.
Yan Xi deliberately bumped into the family doctor, causing him to lose his balance and drop the bottle.
While the family doctor was getting up, Yan Xi grabbed a strand of her hair, placed it in the bottle, and handed it back to the doctor, saying apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
"It's alright."
Seeing that the hair was still there, the family doctor breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked up and met Yan Xi's gaze. The family doctor felt that Yan Xi looked somewhat familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't recall it for the moment.
Five years ago, when Yan Xi and Fu Yan Ting had just gotten married, the family doctor had come to treat Fu Yan Ting one day.
He had only met Yan Xi in passing.
At that time, the family doctor was solely focused on reporting Fu Yan Ting's condition to the old madam and didn't have much interaction with Yan Xi. He only knew that the old madam had married Fu Yan Ting to someone to ward off evil.
But he had forgotten that the girl who married Fu Yan Ting to ward off evil was Yan Xi.
Yan Xi was naturally not unfamiliar with the Fu family's family doctor.
Seeing him staring at her, Yan Xi felt guilty and quickly lowered her head.
The family doctor saw this and didn't say much, taking his things and leaving.
Seeing the family doctor leave, Yan Xi's heart finally settled. Her palms were sweating.
Yan Xi gently opened her hand. Yan Zi Tong's hair was tightly clenched in Yan Xi's palm.
The Fu family's servants were all familiar with Yan Xi. Seeing her at the Fu family's residence now, none of them gave her a good look.
After all, it was common knowledge in the Fu family that Yan Xi had cheated during her marriage five years ago and almost caused Fu Yan Ting's death in order to get a divorce.
Now, Yan Xi had the audacity to return. They really didn't know what Yan Xi was trying to do.
