Runaway Wife: Please, Have Another Baby!

The hand was fair-skinned, with slender and beautiful fingers that seemed delicate yet possessed astonishing strength.

Liu Chang only felt her arm might break from the pain; when she looked up, she was met with a pair of eyes filled with anger.

Gan Yuan flicked her wrist, and Liu Chang staggered back two steps before stabilizing herself.

Pushed nearly to the point of falling by Gan Yuan, Liu Chang was about to erupt when Gan Yuan, like a hen protecting her chick, shielded her son in front of her. She met Liu Chang's gaze with cold eyes and spoke in a deep voice, "Manager Liu, what are you doing?"

Gan Yuan never spoiled her son but when it came to defending him, she was second to none.

Her son, she could scold, she could punish.

Others?

Not even allowed to touch a finger!

"What am I doing?" Liu Chang rubbed her sore wrist, and snorted coldly, "Your son stole my stuff, and I was making him hand it over. Is that wrong?"

Stole?

The moment she heard this word, Gan Yuan's face turned even colder.

"Nonsense, my son would never steal."

Gan Yuan would never believe such a thing, not even if it killed her.

"Right, Sister Liu, Xiaotang would definitely not steal," the lifeguard nearby also spoke up in defense of Gan Tang. "Look again carefully, maybe you left it in the office?"

Gan Tang was a regular at the pool and was very familiar with the staff there, partly because of Gan Yuan and partly because the child was good-looking and sensible, loved by everyone.

"Impossible?" Liu Chang lifted her chin, "In the entire swimming pool, it was just him and me. My phone disappeared from my bag; if not him, then who?"

"My son is definitely not a thief!" Gan Yuan turned to her side, steadied the little guy beside her, grabbing the towel on his shoulder to wipe the water off his hair, and her gaze fell on Song Guowen, the manager of Kangle Center who was jogging over, "Manager Song, please check the surveillance videos at D56 and D59 to see who took Manager Liu's phone."

After speaking, Gan Yuan turned her face, and her dark eyes, through the lenses, looked at Liu Chang again.

"Manager Liu, after the truth comes out, I want you to apologize to my son."

"This..." Song Guowen looked troubled, "The cameras have been off the past couple of days because Kangle Center has been rewiring."

"Forget it!" said Liu Chang, shaking the swimming goggles in her hand, gazing at Gan Tang. "Just return the phone to me, and I'll act as if today's incident never happened, how about that?"

Gan Tang frowned, "Are you deaf? I already said no!"

The small figure spoke with a proud tone.

Liu Chang paused, then let out a cold laugh.

"Fine... since you say so, I must find out the truth today! Manager Li, let me borrow a phone to call the police!"

Both were high-level customer managers for the hotel; Li Guowen didn't want to offend either, and moreover, bringing the police would not be good for the hotel's reputation. He immediately tried to mediate with a smile.

"Maybe it was misplaced somewhere... you guys, go help Manager Liu look for her phone right away."

"We've looked everywhere already."

"Yes, we've checked all over."

...

Li Guoli pointed at the lifeguard, "Weren't you here the whole time? Didn't you see anybody?"

The lifeguard also looked innocent, shrugging and saying, "I was just gone to the restroom for a moment; at the time, there were only Manager Liu and Xiaotang in the swimming pool, it seemed like there was no one else."
