Chapter 20

Ye Yelin had Xia Jinmian transferred to the best private school in the Capital.

He had seen Xia Jinmian’s file; her results were terrible. Even Third Bub at his worst during his rebellious period had way better results.

She most probably had no hope of getting accepted to college.

For Xia Jinmian to be a part of the Ye family, fondness for her was not enough. She needed to have the chops to bear the honor of the Ye family.

When Xia Jinmian went to pack her things, Ye Yelin discussed it with his wife. “If that lass can endure hardship, I plan to let her and Third Bub stay in the training camp for a period of time after her National Examination. That way, it will be convenient for us to adopt her.”

Dou Manni bit her lip. The thought of the training camp made her worried. “That lass is so delicate… I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

Ye Yelin looked at his wife and said solemnly, “I can let her stay in the Ye family for the time being to keep you two company. However, if she wants to be a part of the Ye family officially, she simply does not have the chops. If she can’t bear the honor the Ye family brings her, she can reject it. However, if she wants this honor, she has to prove her mettle.”

Dou Manni was suddenly worried for Xia Jinmian. Previously, she had been so focused on her and Bubba’s fondness for her that she had forgotten that Xia Jinmian was just an ordinary girl. What if she was scared off by the pressure of the Ye family?

“Hubby, let’s not tell her about our family’s situation first. Let’s take it slow so that we don’t scare her off.”

“Okay, as long as you’re happy.”

Xia Jinmian carried her backpack and walked out of the dormitory holding the little munchkin’s hand. He was over the moon.

Under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, a handsome middle-aged man hugged a beautiful lady. The two of them were so affectionate that it made people blush.

Ye Moliang tugged at Xia Jinmian’s hand and said with a smile, “Sister, you’ll get used to it.”

Xia Jinmian could not help but gulp. So, the little munchkin was used to this?

“Daddy, Mommy, let’s go!”

The courtyard fell silent. Bai Yumo stood by the window and looked at the departing figures. She clenched her fists tightly in extreme resentment.

What right did Xia Jinmian have to be adopted by a wealthy family?

Even though Bai Yumo was adopted, she was living the life of a nanny—taking care of other people’s children.

“Momo, we should get ready to go back.”

When An Lan heard about Xia Jinmian’s adoption, he did not have any thoughts. He only hoped that Xia Jinmian would not pester him anymore.

Bai Yumo turned around, her face full of worry. “An Lan, I’m worried about Mianmian. She left with that couple without even signing the adoption papers. That couple has a very disobedient four-and-a-half-year-old son who scolds people indiscriminately. Perhaps that couple is using the excuse of adopting Mianmian to get her to help them take care of the child. Mianmian will definitely have a hard time.”

An Lan walked closer and pulled Bai Yumo into his arms. He said helplessly, “You’re too kind and always so concerned for her. It’s her business that she likes to take care of other people’s children. When she’s had enough of it, she’ll understand that the only ones who really treat her well in this world are you and me.”

“Hmm…” Bai Yumo suddenly thought of something and said worriedly, “By the way, An Lan… Xia Jinmian has also gone to the Capital. I suspect that she followed you to the Capital because you’re building your career there. She saw that the couple is also from the Capital, so she didn’t hesitate to go with them, even if it meant taking care of their child for them. She… doesn’t seem to have given up on you.”

An Lan’s eyes darkened, and his voice turned cold. “Don’t worry, I only love you. If Xia Jinmian keeps pestering me, I’ll announce our relationship to the public and embarrass her.”
