    The snow once again covered the city.


    The fluttering snowkes made Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, the two little girls, extremely excited.


    They even neglected breakfast and rushed downstairs to start building a snowman.


    Xue An stood to the side, smiling as he watched.


    “Daddy, look! Is the snowman I made pretty?”


    “It’s beautiful, Xiang’er’s snowman is the prettiest!” Xue An nodded as he tried to understand what the oddly shaped snowball was supposed to be.


    “These are Daddy’s eyes!” Xue Nian ced two pebbles on the snowball, saying with a giggle.


    “This is Daddy’s mouth!” Xue Xiang used a discarded lipstick to draw an arc. Xue An watched with a chuckle, then pointed to a nk snowman beside them.


    “Then what is this?”


    “This is of course Mommy!” Xue Xiang said.


    “Then why does Mommy have no eyes or mouth?”


    Xue Xiang and Xue Nian hung their heads, “We… we’ve never seen what Mommy looks like. Auntie Xuan’Er said that the person in the photo is our mommy, but why hasn’t Mommye to see us?”


    Xue An felt a slight jolt in his heart, then crouched down and said very seriously, “Xiang’er, Nian Nian, Mommy loves you the most. She is just busy with some things, so she hasn’t been able toe for now, but after some time, Daddy will take you both to see Mommy! Okay?”


    “Mmm!” Both little girls nodded in unison.


    Right at that moment, Han Yao drove up in a white Range Rover.


    She was still somewhat afraid of Xue An, so she stood at a distance, not daring toe closer.


    It wasn’t until Fan Mengxue also came downstairs that Han Yao walked over, then looked at Fan Mengxue with astonishment.


    “You… what happened to your face?”


    “What’s wrong with my face?”


    Han Yao was filled with shock.


    Because the former Fan Mengxue, although extremely beautiful, owed part of her charm to modern makeup techniques.


    But Fan Mengxue today, bare-faced without a trace of makeup, was stunningly beautiful.


    Especially her skin, which seemed so delicate it could be broken with a puff.


    If the former Fan Mengxue was a nine-point beauty, then now she was a bona fide ten-point goddess.


    Han Yao suppressed the curiosity in her heart and then said, “Stephen is currently outside the city in the flower garden, and I’ve already arranged the time, let’s go meet him now.”


    Fan Mengxue nodded, “Okay, but Xue An will alsoe with us.”


    “He’s going too?” Han Yao frowned slightly but did not dare to show any displeasure.


    At this time, Xue An said to the two little girls, “Daddy will take you to see flowers outside the city, okay?”


    “Yay!”


    “But… Daddy, I’m so hungry!” Xue Nian held her stomach and said with a woeful expression.


    “Then Nian Nian, what do you want to eat?”


    “Chinese chive pockets!” Both girls said in unison.


    Thus, atop this Range Rover valued at over a million, each of the little girls held a Chinese chive pocket, eating to their heart’s content.


    Han Yao dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction and could only quietly roll down the window.


    “Why is Stephening to Beijiang? And why go to the flower garden outside the city?” Fan Mengxue asked.


    “Because Stephen is extremely obsessed with flowers and nts, and as it happens, this year’s Beijiang flower garden has attracted a master who has grown many rare flowers and nts, which is why this Stephen hase all the way here,” Han Yao exined.


    The car soon arrived outside the flower garden.


    Upon getting out of the car, Xue An noticed that all kinds of luxury cars were parked here.


    At the entrance, there were also many security guards on watch.


    Han Yao led a group of people into the flower garden.


    Only upon entering did everyone discover it was a different world altogether.


    Firstly, the temperature here was much higher than the outside world, warm as spring.


    Secondly, as far as the eye could see, there were all kinds of flowers and nts.


    Moreover, these flowers and nts were all in full bloom.


    This spectacle ofpeting beauty left Fan Mengxue and the two little girlspletely stunned.


    Han Yao sighed, “When I first saw it, I was shocked too! Such a nursery, even Zhongdu might not have it! No wonder Stephen traveled thousands of miles just toe here!”


    However, Xue An’s face remained calm, these flowers and nts were indeed nice, but for him, they were hardly noteworthy.


    There had been a time when he stood above the Milky Way, overlooking the billion stars below; that was truly magnificent and unparalleled.


    After witnessing such a grand sight, Xue An’s heart felt no ripples when viewing these earthly flowers and nts.


    “Well, well, if it isn’t Fan Mengxue!” Just then, a voice tinged with mockery came from behind.


    Fan Mengxue turned her head and saw a man and a woman approaching.


    The woman was a stunning beauty with a lot of charm, while the man was a short and stocky fellow.


    Such a pairing was inherently discordant.


    And the woman was almost stered against him.


    Fan Mengxue recognized the neers, “He Ying? What are you doing here?” This woman was a starlet with some fame in the industry, named He Ying.


    Fan Mengxue and He Ying had worked together at one point.


    Butter, Fan Mengxue could not stand He Ying’s behavior, and they went their separate ways, and over the next two years, the gap between them had widened.


    Fan Mengxue was already a leading actress.


    He Ying was still confined to the small ce of Beijiang.


    At this moment, He Ying was looking at Fan Mengxue with envious eyes and upon hearing her question, couldn’t help but snicker, “What? Am I not allowed in this ce? The news of Stephen’s visit isn’t exclusive to you alone!”


    Then, He Ying turned her attention to Xue An, “Oh, so this is your big star Fan’s little lover, huh? He looks quite handsome, but it’s a pity…”


    He Ying noticed that Xue An had no expensive essories on him and not even a watch, which led her to view him with some disdain.


    “See this? This is my husband, Chairman Dong Tiancheng of the Tiancheng Group, with a worth of billions. Just one of his rings is worth more than your little lover’s entire fortune. Sometimes, a woman really shouldn’t shortchange herself,” said He Ying with an air of pride.


    Fan Mengxue’s brow furrowed slightly.


    For she noticed the way Dong Tiancheng looked at her— it was a gaze filled with greed and possessiveness.


    Fan Mengxue had seen such looks far too often.


    Dong Tiancheng, at that moment, indeed felt an overwhelming desire, because he had only seen Fan Mengxue on television, but he had not expected her to be even more beautiful in person!


    Especially her delicate skin, which seemed so wless it was almost tempting.


    Yet Dong Tiancheng was a cautious man, fearing that Xue An might be some aristocratic young master, so he merely chuckled.


    “I’m pleased to meet you, Miss Fan, but I’m not sure who this gentleman is…”


    Before Fan Mengxue could speak, Xue Xiang and Nian Nian chorused, “This is our daddy!”


    “Oh…” Dong Tiancheng and He Ying had an air of understanding.


    Carrying a child with her, this Fan Mengxue sure had unique tastes.


    After pondering for a moment and recalling that there was no wealthy scion with children, Dong Tiancheng rxed and said with a smile, “Miss Fan, are you also here to see Director Stephen?”


    “Yes!”


    “Then, have you brought any gifts?”


    “Gifts?”
