"An Jiayou, shut up."
Lin Mubai’s loud shout was quite successful; he managed to silence the little guy in front of him and also interrupted the happy conversation between An Nan and Ling Yichen.
An Nan’s words were cut off, and he looked quite angry: "Why are you shouting? Jiayou, come here and meet your Uncle Ling."
An Jiayou shot someone a smug glance, then stepped forward: "Uncle Ling, nice to meet you."
"Good, good, good." Ling Yichen uttered three goods as he kept his gaze on the little guy who barely reached his chest, eyes full of confusion.
This kid looks to be at least in his teens. How old is An Nan? How could he be An Nan’s son?
Soon, the little guy answered his question himself.
The big and small left An Nan and the now fuming Lin Mubai, walking through the long hallways of the hospital.
An Jiayou proactively broke the silence: "Uncle Ling, do you want to know my relationship with An Nan?"
This little guy is really smart; Ling Yichen already understood this just by observing his simple words and actions, so his face didn’t show surprise but rather a hint of curiosity.
"Yes, I do want to know, will you tell me?"
The other nodded: "I can tell you, but you have to agree to one condition."
"Sure, do you want to state the condition first?"
"That’s a must." An Jiayou’s black eyes were full of determination.
The former continued nodding, making a gesture with his right hand: "Then go ahead and say it!"
"Well, my request is simple: before An Nan and Lin Mubai get their marriage license again, you must pursue An Nan."
What kind of request is that? Ling Yichen was momentarily stunned by this odd request, not knowing how to respond.
"What do you mean by this?"
The former shrugged nonchalantly: "Stop guessing, I mean it literally. Just tell me if you’re okay with it."
There’s really nothing wrong with this; it’s not even a loss for him, plus he can learn a secret he wants to know, so why not go along with it? He nodded.
"Go ahead."
As expected, An Jiayou nodded with satisfaction: "Great, there’s no blood relation between me and An Nan. I’m a child left by my uncle. As for who my biological parents are, I really don’t know."
This answer made Ling Yichen’s eyes flash with surprise: "Sorry, I didn’t know!"
The latter casually shook his head: "No worries, don’t feel pity for me. I actually think I’m quite well-off and happy."
Knowing the boy’s strong sense of pride, Ling Yichen changed the topic: "So you don’t like Lin Mubai acting as your dad."
The former continued shaking his head: "Not really. Him being my dad is fine as long as he treats my mom well. Whether I like it or not is another matter. Besides, that’s another question altogether." Meaning, he didn’t want to answer, and he could choose not to.
For such a mischievous little guy, Ling Yichen shook his head again, eyes full of helplessness.
