Chapter 2: Mother, the scumbag has come to divorce!

Behind him, Ru Feng exclaimed, "Young Master, why does this little brat look exactly like you did when you were young?!"

Rong Jue's face tensed as he squatted down in front of Duan Tuan, "What's your name?"

"My mother said I shouldn't tell anyone my name. There are too many bad people these days!" Tuan Bao said, looking serious like a little adult.

Rong Jue patiently asked again, "Who is your mother?"

"My mother said I shouldn't tell anyone her name. There are too many people coveting her beauty!" Tuan Bao said crisply.

Rong Jue then asked, "Who is your father?"

"I don't have a father! I'm a wild child!" Tuan Bao said.

Tuan Bao glanced at the scorching sun above and said, "Oh no! Mother must have woken up from her nap. If I don't go back now, she'll find out that I sneaked out again!"

Without giving Rong Jue a chance to speak, the little brat ran out of the alley in the blink of an eye.

When Rong Jue came to his senses and chased after him, the little brat had already disappeared without a trace.

"Young Master, that kid just now really looks exactly like you did when you were young!" Ru Feng exclaimed in astonishment. "If people didn't know, they would think he's your son!"

"I haven't married yet, so how could I have a son?" Rong Jue coldly glanced at him and left.

...

Marquis Ningyuan's Mansion.

Five years ago, after Duan Yingning woke up, she was thrown in front of Marquis Ningyuan, and the man who had "detoxified" her the night before had disappeared without a trace.

As a result, the news of her "cheating on Marquis Ningyuan" spread throughout the mansion.

In order to maintain the face of the Marquis's Mansion and not offend the Duke's Mansion, Marquis Ningyuan gritted his teeth and kept this matter secret.

For the past five years, she had been confined to the remote Cold Palace and not allowed to step out.

Outsiders thought that Miss Duan had long since passed away...

"Tuan Bao."

Duan Yingning opened the door and looked at the nanny sleeping soundly in the corner, and kicked her unkindly, "Where did Tuan Bao run off to again?!"

The nanny woke up with a start, "Miss."

She looked terrified, "I don't know..."

"You're sleeping like a dead pig. If someone had sold him, you wouldn't even know, would you?" Duan Yingning said coldly.

For the past five years, the mother and son's daily life had been taken care of by the nanny, Li.

At first, Li had been instructed by Duan Qingyun to act arrogantly in front of them.

Later, she was subdued by Duan Yingning, and now she was respectful in front of her...

Li said with a grievance, "I know I was wrong."

"Since you know you were wrong, go and find him immediately! My son is so cute. If he's abducted, I'll break your old bones!" Duan Yingning scolded.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard her son's voice, "Mother!"

Duan Yingning turned to see Tuan Bao running over, holding something behind his back, "Mother, guess what I brought for you!"

Seeing her precious son, Duan Yingning raised her eyebrows, "What is it?"

"Your favorite snack!" Tuan Bao presented the snack to her like a treasure, "Mother, try it!"

Duan Yingning took a bite, smiling.

The next moment, she glared at him, "Hmph, you little rascal! Just because you brought back a snack, you think I won't question you about sneaking out?!"

"Mother, don't be angry! I was wrong!" Tuan Bao clung to her arm, acting cute with his clear, big eyes blinking.

Clearly, he was saying: I know I'm wrong, but I'll do it again next time!

Duan Yingning had no way to deal with her own son and shook her head helplessly.

"Mother, I didn't sneak out to play just now! I heard that the Duke's Mansion's Rong Jue... that scumbag came and said he wanted to break off the engagement with you!" Tuan Bao looked up, "Mother, it's that Rong Jue who has no taste!"

"Mother, you won't be sad, will you?"

"You won't cry, will you?"

"Why would I cry?"

The original owner had been engaged to Rong Jue of the Duke's Mansion since childhood, and she had always known about it.

But after these few years, Rong Jue had not come to break off the engagement, so she found it strange.

Now that he had finally come to break it off, she didn't have to be tied to a stranger anymore!

She was happy about it!

"That Rong Jue doesn't want you! But don't be sad, Mother. You still have me! If other men don't want you, I will always be with you!" Hearing his comfort, Duan Yingning smiled with relief.

Truly, her son was the one she had given birth to after ten months of pregnancy, and the mother and son were connected by blood...

Five years ago, she had been violated by a stranger, but she considered it just a bite from a dog.

She never regretted giving birth to Tuan Bao.

With Tuan Bao, her years here were not in vain; and because of Tuan Bao, she had restrained her fierce temper and continued to play the timid Miss Duan in the eyes of others!

Of course, only Li and Tuan Bao knew that her timidity was all a facade!

"Mother, shall we go to the front yard?" Tuan Bao suggested.

"Absolutely not, Miss!" Li hurriedly stopped her, "The master has ordered that you must not step out of this Cold Palace!"

"If I don't step out, can't I just step out one step?" Duan Yingning glanced at her, "Let me see you step out half a step."

Li was at a loss, "But..."

"But what? For the past few years, I've been staying in the Cold Palace just to give Tuan Bao a peaceful life. Now that someone has come to break off the engagement, am I supposed to sit and wait for death?"

Breaking off the engagement was fine.

But Duan Yingning had always been concerned about her reputation, and it should have been her who initiated the breakup!

This Rong Jue had actually come to break off the engagement first...

Is she shameless?

Although getting pregnant before marriage is a disgrace to the Rong family, it was also inevitable!

Duan Yingning snorted coldly, "I want to leave from here, who can stop me?"

Her precious son wanted to see the excitement, so she naturally had to satisfy him!

Thinking of her father's instructions...

Looking at Duan Yingning leading Tuanbao towards the door, Li Pozi was scared pale and quickly rushed forward to stop them, "Second Miss."

"If you want to leave from here, you have to step over me!"

"I've never heard anyone make such a request before."

Duan Yingning raised an eyebrow.

Li Pozi acted like a ruffian and actually lay down in front of them!

But Duan Yingning didn't care about her, so she simply led Tuanbao and stepped over Li Pozi!

The two of them almost gave Li Pozi internal injuries.

The courtyard gate was locked. Duan Yingning gestured for Tuanbao to step back and kicked the door with force... The lock didn't break, but the whole door collapsed!

"Mom, you're amazing!"

Tuanbao clapped for his mother like a little fan.

"Of course."

Duan Yingning tossed her head proudly, "Let's go!"

When they appeared with Tuanbao, everyone in the mansion was shocked!

Many people wanted to go to the front yard to complain, but they were all intimidated by her gaze.

Therefore, the mother and son arrived at the front yard smoothly without any obstacles.

Just as they reached the outside of the main hall, a cold male voice came from inside, "The Crown Prince has made up his mind, and this marriage is hereby canceled!"

Duan Yingning's eyes narrowed.

It seemed that this person was her fiancé, Rong Jue!
