Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement

Chapter 413: Taking Back What Belongs to Me

"Tuantuan, Xiaxia, are you okay?"Ningwan rushed over to check on the two kids.

Tuantuan let her inspect him, but Xiaxia resisted, pouting and pulling away forcefully.

Ningwan didn’t argue with her. Seeing they were safe, she finally relaxed.

The police officer came over, glanced at Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue, then said with a smile, "Are these your kids? Indeed, good-looking parents have good-looking children."

"Thank you," Ningwan expressed her gratitude, then asked, "Where is Ye Shao? Sorry, I’m Ye Shao’s sister, Ye Ningwan. Who was he fighting with?"

Ningwan could hardly believe it—Ye Shao was old enough to avoid brawling.

She was genuinely curious about who Ye Shao had gotten into a fight with.

Zhan Hanjue had also brought a lawyer, instructing them to handle the bail procedures first.

The police officer briefed Ningwan on Ye Shao’s situation and then led them to meet him.

Upon hearing that the fight was with Leng Ziqing, Ningwan was taken aback.

"Did anyone from Leng Ziqing’s family come? If not, don’t bother calling them; this is Leng Ziqing’s cousin," Ningwan said.

The police officer looked at Zhan Hanjue, "Aren’t you two a couple?"

"Yes, so, one of the fighters is my brother, and the other is his brother," Ningwan explained awkwardly.

The officer muttered, "Oh, it’s a family matter. Yet, they’re still fighting over jealousy."

Ningwan raised an eyebrow again.

Jealousy?

"Is Wu Taotao also here?"

"Of course, if there’s jealousy, it must be three people. Come on, meet them first."

Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue exchanged a glance and followed the officer.

The three were actually held together in one interrogation room, likely kept there after questioning.

Seeing Zhan Hanjue and Ningwan, the trio looked a bit embarrassed.

Ningwan chuckled mockingly, "I never thought the three of you would end up fighting."

The three of them hung their heads in embarrassment.

The police officer came over and said, "We’ve clarified all issues; it was just an ordinary fight. You just need to handle the bail, and you can leave."

Just then, the lawyer Zhan Hanjue brought walked over, informing him that the bail was settled.

Zhan Hanjue glanced at Leng Ziqing, then told the lawyer, "Bail him out too."

"Can I leave now?" Ye Shao stood and asked.

The officer nodded.

Ye Shao immediately headed out.

Wu Taotao grabbed him, "What’s the hurry, wait for me."

"Why wait for you? Aren’t you staying with your Senior Brother Leng?"

Ye Shao sneered and shrugged her off, leaving.

Outside, Tuantuan and Xiaxia were still playing with others. Upon seeing him, they ran over immediately.

Ye Shao took one in each hand and led the kids away.

Ningwan and Wu Taotao chased after him, but Ye Shao had already left with the kids.

Wu Taotao wanted to continue the chase, but Ningwan stopped her, "Let it be. He’s with the kids; he’ll probably take them home. Better not to chase for now."

"He won’t even listen to my explanation," Wu Taotao frowned deeply.

Ningwan said, "He’s angry now. It’s normal he doesn’t want to hear your explanation. But it’s okay, I’ll listen. Shall we find a place to talk?"

"Sure, let’s go for a drink!" Wu Taotao suggested, "I just want to get drunk."

"Let’s skip the drinks, though. Zhan Hanjue said I shouldn’t drink lately," Ningwan smiled awkwardly as she noticed Zhan Hanjue coming over with Leng Ziqing.

That time when she got drunk, things got out of hand. She didn’t acknowledge it in the morning, but Zhan Hanjue held a grudge.

So, he ordered her not to drink for the time being.

"Really, and you let him control you?" Wu Taotao teased.

"Ahem."

Zhan Hanjue lightly coughed behind them.

Wu Taotao, annoyed, said, "Stop coughing, I know you’re behind me. I’m not badmouthing you behind your back, I’m saying it to your face."

Zhan Hanjue’s face darkened.

Wu Taotao pulled Ningwan away.

Zhan Hanjue said to Leng Ziqing, "I really don’t get why you like her?"

"You like Ningwan, don’t you? I’ve never understood why you like her either," Leng Ziqing retorted.

Zhan Hanjue wanted to say that Wu Taotao couldn’t be compared to Ningwan.

But then he thought, everyone has their own tastes and preferences.

Besides, he didn’t want anyone else apart from himself to like Ningwan, so he kept quiet.

Once the lawyer completed the bail procedures, both men left and found a place to grab a drink.

"Qing, what exactly are you up to?"

Sitting down, Zhan Hanjue asked immediately.

Leng Ziqing looked at him in surprise, wondering how long it had been since he last called him that.

He remembered vaguely that the last time was when they were much younger.

Because they were cousins, they were close as children.

But later, due to their mothers’ issues, they gradually drifted apart.

Hearing that name again brought up unexpected emotions.

"I don’t want to cause trouble, I just want to reclaim what’s mine," Leng Ziqing replied.

The emotions softened his tone considerably.

Zhan Hanjue scoffed, "Yours? You gave up on her and got married to someone else, and now you’re claiming she’s yours? Don’t forget, you are married now, you have a wife. Even though you’re estranged, the legal bond is still there. Also, don’t forget you have a son. He’s already four. Even if the family isn’t warm, it’s still complete. Have you considered him?"

"Cousin, I don’t think these words should come from you," Leng Ziqing replied.

Zhan Hanjue said, "I used to not say these things. But people change. I have a son now, and I believe considering a child’s feelings is very important."

"Ha, back when you broke up with Feng Qianru, you didn’t consider those kids’ feelings. You only care about your son because he’s Ningwan’s child. If he were someone else’s, would you still care?" Leng Ziqing scoffed.

Zhan Hanjue fell silent.

His words made sense.

If Tuantuan weren’t Ningwan’s child, would he care?

Quickly, he dismissed that thought.

He firmly said to Leng Ziqing, "That’s why I’ll only have children with Ningwan. If you don’t want to be a jerk, control yourself. If you can’t, then take responsibility."

Leng Ziqing: "..."

He downed a glass of wine in one gulp.

He could never out-argue Zhan Hanjue in the past, and still couldn’t now.

Fine, no use arguing with him.

"I’m not letting the fight go without consequences. Cousin, at my age, I know what I want. This time, no one can stop me."

After putting down the glass, Leng Ziqing said resolutely to Zhan Hanjue.

Zhan Hanjue frowned.

Leng Ziqing offered no further explanation and left.

Zhan Hanjue, brows tight, paid the bill and called Ningwan.

Leng Ziqing’s attitude was suspicious. Before any further actions, Wu Taotao and Ye Shao should at least be mentally prepared.

But on Ningwan’s side, she was already out drinking with Wu Taotao.

Even though Ningwan insisted on not drinking, Wu Taotao insisted on her joining.

In a moment of carelessness, the two drank too much.
