Chapter 252: Sheng Hanyu Restores His Identity as a Man

"Has the matter from five years ago been investigated clearly?" Sheng Hanyu sat down, legs pressed together.

But he soon realized something was wrong, immediately opened them, and sat with a wide, imposing stance.

"Haha—"

"Hahahaha..."

Wang Yong could no longer hold it in and burst into loud laughter.

He was simply too happy; it was as if he had never been this happy in his entire life.

Sheng Hanyu had disguised himself as a woman and stayed at Zhu Zhai for several months; he would remember forever that he hadn't even been used to it after coming out, and that even his sitting posture had changed.

Don't look at how this man is usually incredibly arrogant; from now on, this little weakness was firmly in his grasp. Whenever he felt annoyed, he could just take it out and pull on it, and he was guaranteed to make him admit defeat and soften up.

Sheng Hanyu glared and threatened: "You are not allowed to tell anyone, do you hear me?"

He heard him, but whether he could actually do it depended on his mood.

Wang Yong finally laughed enough before answering Sheng Hanyu's question: "It was investigated long ago, but you never came out, and it wasn't convenient for me to send the information in."

What Sheng Hanyu had asked Wang Yong to investigate was how Shi Youxuan arrived in L Country five years ago, and how she ended up married to Zhu Yiwen.

Wang Yong was indeed capable; he not only investigated the entire situation at the time clearly, but even dug up the fact that Zhu Yiwen is gay!

This kind of matter was top secret, and because of this, Wang Yong lost two of his brothers.

However, the news was still passed out.

"Is it true?" Sheng Hanyu's expression was serious.

He had sensed from the very beginning that Zhu Yiwen and Shi Youxuan did not have a normal marital relationship, but he really hadn't thought of Zhu Yiwen as being gay.

He was different from Jian Yining; Jian Yining's thinking was simple.

He only felt that if Zhu Yiwen were gay, he wouldn't fight him for Shi Youxuan, and he would be able to be with Shi Youxuan forever.

But Sheng Hanyu's thinking was more long-term.

He first thought that Zhu Yiwen would not let go of Shi Youxuan, and even less would he let go of Shi Ran.

Although Zhu Yiwen did not like women, he needed a woman to keep up appearances, and even more so, he needed a child to inherit the family business!

He should just want a child; it didn't matter if this child was born to him or not.

If this was the case, Sheng Hanyu could not be happy.

This meant that Zhu Yiwen would not easily let go. Now, Shi Youxuan still hadn't accepted him, and she didn't even know that he had spent months living with her day and night... Sheng Hanyu furrowed his brows; the road ahead was long and arduous.

"Auntie, Auntie—" The first thing Shi Ran did upon returning home was not to eat or drink, but to immediately go find Alisha.

This morning, Mommy took her to the new kindergarten to get familiar with the environment, and she had only just returned; tomorrow she could start classes in the new environment.

The old kindergarten had been ordered to rectify because a kidnapping case had occurred there, revealing that security work was seriously inadequate. The children had been on vacation at home for several months, and finally, they could return to kindergarten.

The new environment was so good, and the little girl had a belly full of words to tell her auntie, but there was no one in her auntie's room!

"Strange, where did she go?"

The little one asked the servants, but the servants were evasive and all said they didn't know.

No one dared to tell the truth; if this little ancestor found out that Alisha had been driven away, wouldn't she turn the world upside down?

Although she would know sooner or later, it couldn't come from their own mouths.

It wasn't just the servants who had this thought; even Shi Youxuan thought so!

As soon as she got out of the car, she noticed the servants' expressions were wrong, so she knew in her heart—Alisha had already left.

Not to mention that Shi Ran couldn't accept it, Shi Youxuan also felt empty and very sad inside.

But she was an adult and could control her emotions.

Returning to her room and closing the door, Shi Youxuan told the servant to guard the door, and if the young miss came looking, tell her to go find the Head of the Family!

This was what she and Zhu Yiwen had discussed yesterday—if Xiaozhu made a scene, he would handle it!

Shi Ran couldn't find Alisha anywhere and sure enough, she found her way to Shi Youxuan's door. The servant followed her instructions and told Shi Ran exactly what to say: "Young Miss, the Madam is resting and does not want to be disturbed. The Madam said for you to go to the Study and ask the Head of the Family."

"Daddy is home? Good, I'll go ask Daddy."

The little girl ran "da-da-da" toward the Study, and when she reached the door, she didn't even knock and pushed the door open to go in.

In this house, Shi Ran was the only one who could enter and exit the Study at will, and without having to knock!

Zhu Yiwen was there.

The door was pushed open with a "bang," and the little girl rushed in: "Daddy, have you seen Auntie? I just asked the butler, the bodyguards, and the servants, but they won't tell me, and Mommy won't tell me either. Mommy said you know. Do you know?"

The little girl had searched upstairs and downstairs, through hundreds of rooms; although she hadn't turned every single one over, it was close enough. In the house where the air conditioning was running at full blast, she had actually run until she was covered in sweat.

"Daddy knows."

Zhu Yiwen waved at the little girl to come over: "Look at all this sweat, come here and let Daddy wipe it off for you."

Since Daddy knew where Auntie was, the little girl felt relieved.

Shi Ran obediently stepped forward and snuggled into her daddy's arms. Zhu Yiwen lovingly used a clean towel to carefully wipe the sweat from her head bit by bit, then poured her a glass of warm water to drink.

Her stomach was weak, so it wasn't suitable for her to drink ice water immediately after running until she was sweaty.

"Daddy, where is Auntie? Tell me where she is, and I'll go find her." After drinking the water, the little girl immediately couldn't wait to go find Alisha.

Zhu Yiwen said: "Auntie's relative passed away, and she had to go back for the funeral; she won't be back for a week."

"Ah, that long?"

The little girl's face fell, and she looked listless.

Zhu Yiwen had never known that Alisha had such a big influence on his daughter; when did it start?

"Xiaozhu, Daddy has nothing to do today, how about I play with you?" Zhu Yiwen prepared to shift his daughter's attention away from Alisha and cultivate their father-daughter relationship.

If it were before, if Zhu Yiwen had taken the initiative to offer to play with Xiaozhu, she would have definitely jumped for joy.

But today, she didn't.

She was listless: "No need, Daddy, I want to go back to sleep." After she finished speaking, she left dejectedly, wiping her face with her small hands as she walked.

Was she crying?

Zhu Yiwen's face darkened; only then did he realize the gravity of the problem.

At the same time, he was glad he had driven Alisha away; otherwise, if he had let her stay with his daughter any longer, would there still be a place for him as her daddy in his daughter's heart?

However, he still underestimated the seriousness of this matter.

Shi Ran returned to her room; whether she slept or not was unknown, but two hours later, the maid caring for the young miss went to find Shi Youxuan in a panic, saying the young miss had a fever!

Shi Youxuan was greatly alarmed and immediately had someone go to fetch a doctor.

At the same time, Zhu Yiwen also received the news, and the two of them arrived at Shi Ran's room at almost the same time.

Two hours ago, she was still a lively little girl, but now she was lying on the bed with a flushed face, panting heavily with a "huff-puff" sound, and talking nonsense: "Auntie... climb tree!"

"Auntie won't leave."

"Go... play..."

"Auntie, don't abandon me..."

Shi Youxuan's heart was breaking; she had not expected Alisha's departure to be such a huge blow to Xiaozhu!

It was also strange; in the few months since Alisha arrived at the house, Xiaozhu had never had a fever, not even when she was kidnapped, caught in the rain, and frightened.

So she had assumed that Xiaozhu had grown up and her immunity had improved, which was why she wouldn't get a fever as easily as before.

But as soon as Alisha left, Xiaozhu suddenly fell ill.

Shi Youxuan felt very guilty, blaming herself for whether she had been too selfish.

If she had kept Alisha, would this have happened?

She grabbed her daughter's hand and placed it against her own cheek; the small hand was ice-cold, and when she touched her feet, they were the same.

This was not a good sign; cold hands and feet meant the fever hadn't reached its peak yet, and the temperature would continue to rise!

But the thermometer already showed thirty-nine point five degrees; if it continued to burn, it would definitely hit forty degrees.

"What should I do? Why hasn't the doctor arrived yet? Someone go and hurry them up!" Shi Youxuan was burning with anxiety, urging the maid to go and see why the doctor hadn't arrived yet.
