Chapter 772: Chapter 705: The Zhan Family’s Son Grown Up (Part 2)

Looking at his gentle gaze, Mu Chen’s heart was touched.

Suddenly, he remembered that when he was a child, he too had looked at him with gentle eyes.

"Because I want you to be my father. I want to go back to when I was a child, when I was still your son. You still had feelings for me. That time was the happiest period of my life. I just want to find that happiness again."

Mu Chen snuggled against his shoulder, murmuring his reasons.

Zhan Hanjue’s expression split apart with shock, his heart mixed with emotions.

Yes, he was once his son too.

Before he knew about this child’s background, he too had a deep father-son bond with him. Even though he didn’t like Feng Qianru, he sincerely loved this son.

Later, he suspected they had nothing to do with him, did some tests secretly, and indeed they were unrelated.

For a while, he deliberately distanced himself from these two children, afraid that spending too much time together would cause him to fall deeper.

But the children were innocent and unaware of the adult’s shadows.

Actually, when they were young, Xiaxia wasn’t particularly affectionate towards him.

On the contrary, Mu Chen relied heavily on him.

Whenever he had time, he would come near him asking for a hug.

Many times he couldn’t bear to refuse a child’s request, so he would lift him up.

When he let Feng Qianru leave, it was actually for the sake of the two children that he didn’t hold grudges against her.

When he learned that Feng Qianru and Mu Chen had an accident, he was sad for Mu Chen.

But, that was a long time ago.

So long that it felt like a thing from a previous life.

When he learned Mu Chen wasn’t dead, he was very happy. But then, quickly became hateful because he plotted to harm Xia Luo, his beloved wife and child.

He never thought that Mu Chen would still long for his paternal love, instead of considering him an enemy.

"Dad, we will be home soon."

Mu Chen said again.

Zhan Hanjue reacted quickly, "Mu Chen, I don’t know why you have this thought, but... I can’t go home with you. You should know, I have a family, I..."

"Ye Ningwan, or Zhan Yunxiao?"

Mu Chen interrupted him, snorted, "You abandoned me for them back then. They are nothing but invaders. I’m just trying to take back what belongs to me. Are you going to abandon me again for them?"

"Mu Chen..."

"There’s no need to say anything. I must take you home. I know you came prepared, but I’m also prepared. They won’t find you, I will definitely take you away."

Mu Chen interrupted him once more and stood up to leave.

He might not want to argue with him, so he left first.

Only Zhan Hanjue was left on the sofa.

The sea breeze blew, a bit cold.

But at this moment, he could no longer feel the cold, only the absurdity of it all.

He never dreamed that everything Mu Chen did was just to ask for paternal love?

Not only he didn’t expect it, but neither did Zhan Yunxiao nor Ye Ningwan.

Ye Ningwan went to look for Xunyou, Zhan Yunxiao had his own ways.

But both teams lost track.

While they were in disarray, Mu Chen called them, saying the antidote had been given to Zhan Hanjue’s men.

"Where’s my dad?" Zhan Yunxiao asked.

Mu Chen chuckled, "He should be my dad. My dad is, of course, here with me. I will take him home."

Mu Chen and Ye Ningwan were stunned.

In the end, it was Ye Ningwan who had experienced more things, calmed down quickly, and asked Mu Chen, "When did he become your dad?"

"If it weren’t for you bringing back a bastard, he would always be my dad. We would always live together, and there wouldn’t have been years of separation. Now I’m just setting things right, returning everything to the original point. Don’t worry, I will find my dad a pretty young wife to take care of him. As for you, with all the property my dad left for you, you should be satisfied."

Ye Ningwan: "..."

This is truly unbelievable.

Someone actually wants to find a woman for her husband?

"Mu Chen, you’re crazy."

Zhan Yunxiao yelled.

Mu Chen chuckled, "I am very clear about what I am doing. It’s you who aren’t clear. But it doesn’t matter, we won’t be in touch again. Goodbye."

After saying this, Mu Chen hung up the phone.

Zhan Yunxiao and Ye Ningwan turned bright red with rage and anger.

Xunyou coughed lightly and said, "Don’t be too angry. At least now we can be sure that Mr. Zhan is safe and won’t be in danger."

"Not only won’t he be in danger, but his cheap son even wants to find him a young wife."

Ye Ningwan said angrily.

"With you saying this, I don’t know how to comfort you." Xunyou said awkwardly.

Soon, Zhan Hanjue’s men returned and brought back the antidote.

Of course, Ye Ningwan won’t trust Mu Chen, who knew if he had another scheme.

So, she checked the antidote first.

After checking herself and finding no problems, she still wasn’t relieved and called Jin Yingzi to check again.

"No problem, should be the antidote." Jin Yingzi said.

Only then did Ye Ningwan feel at ease and told Zhan Yunxiao to give the antidote to Xia Luo.

"How can I leave now? Let others send it back! I need to continue looking for dad’s whereabouts." Zhan Yunxiao said.

Ye Ningwan was already completely calm at this moment.

Hearing him say this, she said sternly, "You’re not needed here. I will personally find your dad. Quickly give Xia Luo the antidote so she suffers less. Yingzi, you should go with him to avoid other issues with Xia Luo."

Jin Yingzi nodded.

Zhan Yunxiao had no choice but to agree.

But when he returned home, he found Xia Luo was gone. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

She left him a letter saying she went to rescue dad.

"This foolish girl, doesn’t she know her current condition? She still wants to rescue someone?"

Zhan Yunxiao was both angry and anxious, hurriedly running out to find Xia Luo.
