“Do you want to have some?” The little boy said as he stuck a stick of loquats at Mo Yixuan.

The loquats seemed very fresh and they were still green and were yet to turn yellow. It was obvious that these loquats were freshly picked off the tree.

“I’ve washed them with the well water,” The little boy said with a smile, revealing a set of pearly white teeth.

Mo Yixuan shot him an awkward smile.

“Go ahead,” he said flatly.

The small boy immediately took a bite of these loquats. They were a little sour since they weren’t completely ripe yet but they were delicious and he loved loquats.

After he ate several loquats, he drew closer to Mo Yixuan and said with a smile, “I know who you are.”

Mo Yixuan looked up at this tanned young boy in surprise since this was his first visit to the village.

“You were my ex-uncle-in-law, am I right?” The boy said with a laugh, then ate another loquat.

Mo Yixuan was surprised by the words ‘uncle-in-law’ and looked at this boy carefully. He was sure that he hadn’t seen this boy before either.

The little boy also sat down on the ridges. He was He Congming, the grandson of He Xiyan’s second uncle and he was nine this year in his third year of elementary school. He was lively and playful and didn’t enjoy studying. The village children led carefree lives and they would often head out to play so he was extremely tan, like an African child.

“How did you know that?” Mo Yixuan turned to look at this playful child, then he finally saw that the child’s hands were all dirty since he had started pulling at the gra.s.s on the ridges the moment he sat down.

“I’ve seen your picture before,” He Congming said with another laugh. “My dad once showed me your photo and said that you were Aunt Yan’s husband but later, he heard that Aunt Yan found a richer man and now lives in a big castle, so she dumped you to marry the guy who is named Ye.”

Mo Yixuan was speechless.

Then, He Congming looked at the tall uncle with pity and he decided that when he grew older, he would have to earn a lot of money. Otherwise, his wife might run away after meeting a richer man.

Mo Yixuan was left feeling rather speechless and he looked increasingly awkward.

He didn’t expect that this was how He Xiyan’s hometown would interpret their divorce.

“You should leave soon,” He Congming tugged at Mo Yixuan’s clothes and added, “I think my new uncle is also here. If he sees you here, he would definitely try to fight with you but if you beat him up you’ll definitely end up in jail. Conversely, if he hits you, the policemen would not catch him.”

He wasn’t sure where the kid had heard of such dark news but the kid had an extremely realistic take on the situation.

Mo Yixuan scoffed and patted the kid’s small head.

Then, his phone in his pocket rang.

He dug it up and saw that it wasn’t a call from work but that it was from the maid who was employed at his house, Wu Xiaomin.

Didn’t he already make all the necessary arrangements for the matters at home?

Mo Yixuan frowned in surprise but immediately picked up the call.

Soon, he heard Wu Xiaomin’s urgent and anxious voice.

“Sir, where are you? You need to come back right now and travel as fast as you can!” Wu Xiaomin shouted into the phone and he could vaguely hear the sounds of an argument in the background.

Mo Yixuan grew even more puzzled and he felt as though his heart had tightened.

He instinctively knew that something must have happened at home. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been such a loud commotion.

“What’s going on?”

He heard Wu Xiaomin breathing rapidly on the other end of the line and she paused for a moment before she said, “Sir, you must remain calm. Something terrible has happened at home and four or five people have arrived with some sort of report. They’re claiming that Ye Ye is their child.”
