C22 Never be Able to Part with It

Ji Xiaonuan pushed away his outstretched hand, "How can Anan help you?"

She frowned and helped Fu Jianli up impatiently. "Fu Jianli, I told you in advance that if you drink like this again, I won't care about you. I brought this little guy Anan to the bar to find you. What's the matter?"

"Get a nanny to take care of An An. Come and pick me up." Fu Jianli let Ji Xiaonuan support him, his mind cleared up a little and said.

Ji Xiaonuan sneered, "An An grew up by my side since she was young. If someone else takes care of An An, I won't be at ease."

She was worried about leaving An An in the care of the nanny, and even more worried about handing An An over to Fu Jianli or Mrs. Fu, so Ji Xiaonuan was still determined to get custody of An An no matter what.

She didn't bother to say more. She let Ann follow and left the bar.

Ji Xiaonuan knew that Fu Jianli's alcohol tolerance had always been good. Before they arrived at the bar, Ji Xiaonuan even suspected that Fu Jianli was pretending to be drunk, but now that she saw Fu Jianli like this, she gave up on that idea.

He did stagger a little, and it didn't seem like an act.

Ji Xiaonuan helped him back home and sent him to his bed in his room. As soon as Fu Jianli laid down, he immediately fell asleep.

Looking at the man lying on the bed, Ji Xiaonuan felt a headache coming on.

Fu Jianli was a hooligan. He had been like this since they met a few years ago, and he was still like this now. It was just that Fu Jianli had been a hooligan to her at that time, but it was different now. Perhaps because they had separated before, Fu Jianli had accumulated resentment in his heart, so he was cold to him most of the time.

But Ji Xiaonuan did not care. After all, she and Fu Jianli were now two parallel lines that would never cross, even though there was Ann between them.

Giving up on taking off his clothes and wiping his face, Ji Xiaonuan turned around and left, closing the door behind her.

An An had Ji Xiaonuan's bag hanging around her neck, with a malicious look on her face, "Mommy, are you sure you don't want to take off his shoes?"

"Don't worry about it, go back to take a shower and sleep!"

With that, Ji Xiaonuan returned to her room and stretched her body. Fu Jianli was too heavy, and he looked skinny in his clothes.

When she was with Fu Jianli back then, Ji Xiaonuan was attracted by Fu Jianli's face. Later on, she could not bear Fu Jianli's good figure, so on impulse, she felt safe.

But Ji Xiaonuan did not regret it, because An An was the best gift the heavens had ever given her.

That night, Ji Xiaonuan could not sleep, and only fell asleep after midnight. It was just that after she fell asleep, Ji Xiaonuan could not help but dream about the past, about everything that happened between her and Fu Jianli.

When she woke up the next day, Ji Xiaonuan had dark circles under her eyes and her face looked terrible.

Fu Jianli had already made breakfast. Although it looked good, Ji Xiaonuan knew that it would not taste good.

But it was already not easy to have someone to cook for her, and Ji Xiaonuan had nothing to be picky about.

"From today onwards, I will personally send Anan to kindergarten. If other children have it, Anan will have it too." Fu Jianli's words were firm and his expression was serious. Obviously, he was not discussing with Ji Xiaonuan, but informing her.

Other children had fathers, so did An An.

All these years, An An had been living with Ji Xiaonuan, so it was obvious that many children would say that An An had no father.

Fu Jianli would make up for all the debts he owed Anan. Although they had missed each other for many years because of Ji Xiaonuan, Anan was innocent.

Fu Jianli glanced at Ji Xiaonuan, "You can come with me, but if you don't want to, you don't have to go."

Ji Xiaonuan tightened her grip on the chopsticks, feeling very uncomfortable in her heart. Fu Jianli had to pick An An up, which was enough to prove that Fu Jianli's appearance this time was indeed to fight for An An with her. Not only for custody rights, but also for An An's peace of mind.

Ji Xiaonuan's expression turned ugly, but even though it was just a slight change in expression, Ji An'an still noticed it.

Ji An'an also frowned and answered Fu Jianli's question, "Since I'm the one you're going to give to, then I have the right to make the decision. I want my mother to give it to me."

When Fu Jianli heard this, his movements paused slightly.

Anan was very resistant to him.

It was not only because they had not been in contact with each other in all these years, but also because of Ji Xiaonuan.

Anan lowered her head and continued to eat without saying a word.

Ji Xiaonuan's gaze fell on An An's face, her heart filled with bitterness. An An said that she did not want to, but in his heart, he must have wanted to meet his own father.

After a few seconds of silence, Ji Xiaonuan finally spoke, "An An, Mom will accompany him to send you to school."

Outside the kindergarten, Ji Xiaonuan handed An An to the teacher before leaving with Fu Jianli.

Fu Jianli drove the car and stared at the road in front of him, "Last night, you still went to pick me up!"

When he said this, the corner of Fu Jianli's mouth curled up into a proud smile.

After seeing her again, all of Fu Jianli's thoughts about her filled his heart. In the years that they had not been in contact, Fu Jianli had only hidden his feelings in the bottom of his heart.

"At that time, the waiter called me. I... I only went to pick you up because of Anan. I couldn't ignore you." Ji Xiaonuan did not want Fu Jianli to misunderstand, so she quickly explained.

"Is that so?" Fu Jianli laughed lightly, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his smile. "You want to remind me that you no longer have that kind of feeling for me, right?"

But no matter what, there was still an inseparable relationship between them, and that was An An.

As long as An An was around, Ji Xiaonuan would never be able to get rid of him for the rest of her life.

"Back then, I really didn't know that you were such a woman." Back then, Ji Xiaonuan was innocent and soft-hearted, which was very different from now.

Their relationship was extremely deep in Fu Jianli's heart, but this woman could let it go so easily.

"You could say that." Ji Xiaonuan's face also darkened as she answered Fu Jianli's question, "That relationship of mine has long since ended. From you and Shen Pianpian..."

Ji Xiaonuan paused for a moment and quickly changed her tone, "Forget it, I still want to advise you to give up Anan's custody rights."

"If Shen Pianpian becomes Anan's stepmother, can you guarantee that she will treat Anan well? You are Anan's father, and you don't want Anan to be unhappy, do you?"

You and Shen Pianpian.

Ji Xiaonuan's words struck deep into Fu Jianli's heart.

What happened between him and Shen Pianpian?

Could it be that what happened back then was also related to Shen Pianpian?
