Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1688: Chapter 1688: Daddy’s Gut Worm

“Why won’t you let me speak?” Jian Yufei asked in confusion.

Qi Ruisen had just deliberately stopped her, and she didn’t understand why he would block her.

If she announced that Ansel was giving up his inheritance rights, Nangong Xu would no longer target Ansel.

Qi Ruisen pursed his lips and said, “I know what you want to say. I also don’t want Ansel to inherit this family, but you can’t say it in front of them.”

“Why not?”

“Do you think those people truly support Ansel? They’re all descendants of Nangong Longyi, only looking out for their own interests. If they find out you made the decision for Ansel, they definitely won’t let you off.”

Jian Yufei frowned; she hadn’t thought of it from this angle.

“We can let Ansel voluntarily give it up.”

“That won’t work either. Ansel is just a child. If he inherits the position of Family Head, they could control him. They won’t agree to him giving it up; in their view, Ansel must inherit, otherwise, it will be Nangong Xu. From now on, don’t say anything, let them fight it out. Don’t worry, if Nangong Xu disagrees with Ansel inheriting, he won’t either.”

Jian Yufei nodded knowingly, “He probably won’t let Ansel inherit; he’ll inherit it himself.”

“That’s not certain either. Perhaps he will support Ansel to take that position, but keep the control all to himself.”

Like a regent?

Jian Yufei frowned with concern, “I really hope he doesn’t do that.”

Qi Ruisen wanted to say, he might just do it.

But he didn’t want Jian Yufei to worry even more, so he kept silent.

Anan, hearing their conversation from behind, had a shadow flit across his eyes.

He had to quicken his search for the whereabouts of the other child.

Once he found that child, they wouldn’t have anything to worry about.

A City—

Ruan Tianling finally agreed to let Ansel out for some fresh air.

Mo Lan, feeling sorry that he had been confined for so long, offered to accompany him outside for a bit.

As for going out to play, Ansel wasn’t very interested.

He was still angry with Ruan Tianling and kept a sour, sullen face.

But in Ansel’s words, he’d rather go out and play than stay home and deal with Ruan Tianling, so he agreed to take a walk outside.

Ruan Tianling played it up with a threat: “If it weren’t for Miss Mo’s sake, I wouldn’t let you out. Listen carefully, if you dare to run away, it’ll all be Miss Mo’s fault!”

Ansel sneered at him, “Are you even a man?”

Ruan Tianling was very composed, “You’re not a man, so naturally I don’t need to use a man’s methods to deal with you.”

Ansel was furious, “Who says I’m not a man?!”

“Your parts haven’t fully grown yet, are you sure you’re a man?”

Ansel was greatly embarrassed, ‘Uncle Awei, are you sure you’re not a worm in my dad’s belly?’

The tone and words were exactly the same.

Ansel, unwilling to show weakness, retorted, “Be smug if you want, but when I become a real man, your parts will be useless!”

Awei almost burst out laughing.

He really wanted to know what expression the Boss would have if he knew his son said such things to him.

Mindful of Mo Lan’s presence, Awei had to feign anger, “You cheeky brat, if you dare to talk back one more time, don’t even think about going out!”

“Hmph, when you can’t win an argument, you resort to threats, you bandit!”
