Bai Jiangliu's words made Ji An'an's spine stiffen. She had almost forgotten that Shuibao was still by her side.

She was a little flustered, but she pretended to nod calmly. "Yes, this is my son."

Then, she lowered her head and smiled at Shuibao, "Shuibao, greet uncle."

"Hello, uncle." Although Shuibao was young, he knew how to be polite.

The child that clung to Ji An'an's thigh looked so cute and pleasing, which gave Bai Jiangliu a bold guess.

He blurted out, "Then he is..."

Ji An'an's expression immediately darkened as she coldly denied it. "No."

"What?" Bai Jiangliu's expression was a bit ugly.

Ji An'an met his eyes and slowly said, "He's two years old this year."

She left four years ago. If she had had a child, she would be three now.

After Bai Jiangliu thought this through, he looked at Ji An'an with complicated emotions.

Shuibao didn't understand why Mommy said he was one year younger, but in front of this strange uncle, he chose to stand at the side of Mommy and kept silent.

"An An, do you know that Yiyang …" I've been looking for you all these years, but seeing her like this, starting a new life and having children, these words stuck in his throat, he couldn't say it. No matter what happened to the two of them back then, his good friend wasn't worth it.

Bai Jiangliu's tone was not as friendly as before, "Then why did you come back after leaving for so many years?"

Ji An'an felt amused once again. She knew this child wasn't Teng Yiyang's, yet she changed her attitude so much. Was he trying to fight for him? But she felt that there was nothing unfair about it. Wasn't she the one who was abandoned before?

"I think it should be my freedom whether I return or not. It has nothing to do with anyone!" Ji An'an touched Shuibao's head, her tone was still polite and distant.

Sensing the change in her expression, Bai Jiangliu felt that he had overstepped his bounds, but he still had something to say.

"An An, now that you have a new life, I hope you won't appear in front of Yiyang again."

Earth was very big, but fate was also very mysterious sometimes. She had been away for so many years, and now that he met her, she might be able to meet Yiyang at any time.

He didn't want to see his good friend go crazy, so all he could do was push this possibility far away.

Ji An'an gripped her bag tightly as a trace of self-mockery surfaced in her eyes. Even though she had been gone for so many years, the people around her still had no choice but to chase her away. They were on their guard against her.

She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but suddenly, a hand wrapped around her shoulder. A familiar aura came over, and she subconsciously turned her head to see that familiar hair fluttering in the night wind.

"There are too many cars. We had to stop for a long time to find our seats, making you and Shuibao wait for a long time." Bei Yiyuan gave her an intimate smile. Then, as if he just saw Bai Jiangliu in front of her, he smiled provocatively, "An An, who is this?"

Bei Yiyuan's appearance made Ji An'an's spine relax. She leaned her weight on him like a lonely boat finding a safe haven.

She ignored Bai Jiangliu's shock and smiled sweetly back at Bei Yiyuan, "This is a friend that I made in A City, Bai Jiangliu."

"So you're my family's An An's friend," Bei Yiyuan tilted his head and stretched out his right hand towards Bai Jiangliu. "Hello, Mr. Bai. I'm Bei Yiyuan."

Bei Family? None of the noblemen in A City seemed to be surnamed Bei.

Bai Jiangliu looked at the person who was intimate with Ji An'an. Half of his face was covered by a large pair of sunglasses, so it was impossible to see what he looked like.

The three of them stood together, men handsome and women beautiful, children cute, like a family of three.

He retracted the expression on his face, stretched out his hand and took Bei Yiyuan's hand, "Mr. Bei, it's my pleasure to meet you. I don't know if you and An …"

Bei Yiyuan smiled, "Mr. Bai, can't you see the relationship between us?" With that, he raised his hand and gently stroked Ji An'an's head.

Ji An'an swept away her previous feelings and stared at the person in front of her at a place where Bai Jiangliu couldn't see. Didn't she hate it when others were touching her head the most?

Bei Yiyuan's smile became gentler as a trace of a smile flashed across his eyes.

Bai Jiangliu saw that these two people were "making eye contact" with him. If he didn't know them, he would definitely praise them as a couple that was easy to match. However, when he thought of his good friend, his face stiffened.

"I didn't expect An An to get married so soon. Really, congratulations."

Ji An'an could only smile as she listened to Bei Bai Jiangliu's heartfelt blessings.

Bei Yiyuan did not admit nor deny, and warmly greeted, "I wonder if Mr. Bai has eaten yet? Our family is on its way to dinner, do you want to join us? "

Ji An'an frowned and glared at the person who was addicting her.

Bai Jiangliu looked at his wristwatch and declined, "I still have an appointment. Next time!"

Bei Yiyuan regretfully shrugged his shoulders and then took Ji An'an's handbag, bent down to pick up Shuibao, who had been watching the show with wide eyes, and said with a smile, "Then we will meet again if fate wills it."

With that, Bei Yiyuan turned around and walked towards the gate.

Ji An'an took two steps before she suddenly turned around. The night wind was blowing her hair, as if she was still as beautiful as she was in her youth.

"Mr. Bai, I hope you won't tell him about today's meeting. Thank you."

Bai Jiangliu saw that she turned around without waiting for his answer, so he quickly caught up to the group in front of them. The fountain music was still playing, and their laughter could be heard from afar.

He was just advising her not to appear in Yiyang's life again, but he didn't expect her to avoid Yiyang like this.

When he thought about Yiyang's life over the years, his expression turned slightly mocking. It seemed like Yiyang was exaggerating.

Senior Teng asked him to help persuade Yiyang to go on a blind date. It seemed that he had to give Senior Teng a call to put this matter on the agenda.

It didn't make sense for her to be enjoying her life, while Yiyang was in dire straits.

After getting away from the fountain, Bei Yiyuan chuckled, "How is it? I was very impressive just now, wasn't I? "

"If you didn't add a scene for yourself and didn't touch my head, I would have thought you were special today!" Ji An'an snappily took the handbag from him.

"What's the point!" How could people from our Bei Family be so easily bullied! If people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If people offend me, I won't forgive them! " Bei Yiyuan snorted. Don't think that he didn't hear what that person said to her. If it was his big brother in attendance, he probably wouldn't be as gentle as he was now.

Ji An'an laughed. "Good, good, good. You're awesome!" "It's all thanks to you tonight, thanks to you. I'll eat whatever I want for dinner!"

"Why are you being so courteous with me? No matter what, I'm your brother!" But I have to think about dinner, at least a bottle of '82 Lafite! "

Just as Bei Yiyuan finished his sentence, he was hit on the head. He screamed, "My hairstyle! Ji An'an! The head can bleed and the hairstyle can't be messed up, do you know that!? "

Ji An'an shrugged. "I don't know!"

Shuibao covered his mouth and laughed, "Stupid second uncle!"
