Chapter 76 of "Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement" introduces: Ye Shao nodded, "When I was sent to the orphanage, he was sent there not... Read on to discover!

Ye Shao nodded, "When I was sent to the orphanage, he was sent there not long after. He was very young at the time, still a baby. No one was willing to take care of him, so the director arranged for me to take care of him. I raised him single-handedly, feeding him formula and changing his diapers, so he stuck to me the most. He really likes drawing and is very good at it, so I let him draw. But it needed a lot of money, so I went to work in a nightclub where the pay was a bit better. Without me covering for him, he would get bullied in the orphanage. I asked Nurse Auntie to help me contact him today, and that’s why he came here. I’m sorry, sister, I didn’t tell you about this earlier. I was afraid you..." "Afraid that I would dislike him?" Ye Ningwan continued. Ye Shao lowered his head in shame. Ye Ningwan said, "I’m not that unreasonable. Since he is your good friend, how could I dislike him? If you want to help him, I can also help. For example, adopt him from the orphanage, so he won’t have to suffer there anymore." "Really? Can you really adopt him, sister?" Ye Shao asked with wide eyes, full of surprise. Ye Ningwan said, "Of course, it depends on you." Ye Shao’s face turned red with excitement, and he stammered, "If we can adopt him, that would be great. He wouldn’t have to stay in that place. Sister, I feel like I’m dreaming. How could I have such a good sister as you?" With that, Ye Shao’s eyes sparkled, and he couldn’t help but shed tears. "Why are you crying?" Ye Ningwan quickly wiped his tears, "You’re older than Mao Dan, and you’re still crying." At this point, Mao Dan came out of the bathroom. He had washed his face and changed into clean clothes. Except for his somewhat long hair, he no longer looked like an orphan. The slightly long hair made him appear more delicate and handsome. Ye Ningwan noticed that he was quite an attractive young man. However, she felt he looked somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before. Ye Ningwan stared at him for a moment, suddenly feeling a shock in her heart. Ye Shao didn’t notice Ye Ningwan’s unusual reaction, because she had just agreed to adopt Mao Dan. He happily said to Mao Dan, "Mao Dan, come and bow to Sister. Sister says she wants to adopt you, so you won’t have to stay in the orphanage anymore." Mao Dan stared blankly at Ye Ningwan, unable to react. Ye Shao quickly stepped forward to pull him and repeated it to him. This time, Mao Dan understood and excitedly fell to his knees with a thud, bowing to Ye Ningwan. Ye Ningwan came to her senses and quickly pulled him up, "No need to thank me yet. This is just my own decision. I haven’t even asked you if you are willing to be adopted by me." "Of course, I’m willing, Sister. I want to be with Brother," Mao Dan said. Ye Ningwan nodded with a smile, "I’ll arrange for the paperwork as soon as possible and also find you a new school, so you can always be with Shao’er. But your hair is a bit long, it needs to be cut." As she spoke, Ye Ningwan discreetly lifted Mao Dan’s hair, revealing his ear. Sure enough, there was a mole on his ear. Mao Dan shyly took a step back. He was already fifteen, no longer an ignorant child. Ye Ningwan was so good-looking, and such close contact with him made him embarrassed. "Sorry, I treated you the same as Shao’er," Ye Ningwan quickly explained. Mao Dan shook his head, suddenly his eyes turned red, and he hugged Ye Ningwan, crying. At fifteen, he was almost as tall as Ye Ningwan. Hugging her so suddenly made Ye Ningwan a bit uncomfortable. "Don’t cry," Ye Ningwan patted his back awkwardly. Just then, the door of the hospital room opened. Zhan Hanjue suddenly appeared, saw this scene, and his face darkened. He strode over. Ye Ningwan and Mao Dan were quickly separated. Ye Ningwan was pulled behind by Zhan Hanjue. "What’s going on?" Zhan Hanjue asked in a deep voice. He looked at Mao Dan coldly. Mao Dan shivered with fear. He had never seen such a terrifying person, more frightening than those who took his things at the orphanage. "Don’t scare the child. This is Shao’er’s friend. He’s timid. I want to ask you for a favor, can you let Chen Tan handle the adoption for the child? Can you manage it?" Ye Ningwan quickly explained while looking at Zhan Hanjue expectantly. Her voice had a slight uplift when she said good or not, which was extremely soft and pleasant. Zhan Hanjue’s heart was moved, and he couldn’t help but say, "Of course I can." Ye Ningwan smiled and said, "I knew you could do it. Mao Dan, Shao’er, aren’t you going to thank Mr. Zhan?" "Thank you, Mr. Zhan." "Thank you, brother-in-law." Mao Dan obediently said thank you, Mr. Zhan. Ye Shao directly called him brother-in-law. Zhan Hanjue was overjoyed, but Ye Ningwan lowered her voice to reprimand, "Call him Mr. Zhan, why are you calling him brother-in-law?" "Isn’t he brother-in-law?" Ye Shao asked in a low voice. Zhan Hanjue said, "Yes, call me that from now on." Ye Shao smiled and winked at Ye Ningwan. Ye Ningwan was speechless and mumbled, "What brother-in-law, shameless." "Come out, I have something to tell you," Zhan Hanjue said again. Ye Ningwan nodded. Once outside, she asked, "What is it?" "There’s news about the child you wanted to investigate," Zhan Hanjue said. Ye Ningwan frowned, "I already know." "You know?" "It’s the one inside, right?" Ye Ningwan asked. Zhan Hanjue nodded, "Chen Tan found him and knew he was looking for Ye Shao, so he told me about it. I didn’t expect Ye Shao to know him." "Indeed, I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence." "I’ll have Chen Tan promptly handle the adoption paperwork and keep him within our reach, then Ke Yingying won’t dare to disobey you," Zhan Hanjue added. Ye Ningwan frowned. She wanted to explain that adopting Mao Dan wasn’t because she wanted to control him. But then again, she felt it seemed meaningless to say it now. Ultimately, she would still have to use this child for some things. "Okay, have Chen Tan handle the paperwork quickly. Also... never mind, we’ll talk about it later!" "What exactly do you want to say?" Zhan Hanjue frowned. Ye Ningwan said, "Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you wanted to visit Leng Linglong. After all, we are in the same hospital, it’s just a matter of steps." "No, if I go, it would all be in vain," Zhan Hanjue said ruthlessly. Ye Ningwan shook her head, not persuading him further. However, thinking of Leng Ziqing, she curiously asked, "Do you know your cousin well? I mean, do you know about him?" "What do you want to find out?" "For example... his romantic history." "Ask Wu Taotao to give up early. Not to mention my aunt couldn’t possibly accept her, Leng Ziqing also has his first love, and it’s been more than ten years." Zhan Hanjue said. Ye Ningwan: "..." So, this isn’t a trap, it’s a crematorium. Jumping in would result in being crushed to pieces and never being able to recover!
