Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Fu Wan and Song Fengwan returned from shopping, the sky was already completely dark.
Fu Chen took a look at the clock. It was already six. It would take an hour and a half to drive from here to the airport, as he was worried about traffic jams.
“Big Sis, why don’t you take Jinye back to the old residence? I’m going to take Wanwan to pick up Aunt Yun and have dinner with them. We may not be back until late at night.”
Had it been an earlier flight, Qiao Aiyun would have visited the two elders of the Fu Family at night. But it would be past eight by the time they got off the plane, and it would probably be nearly ten when she reached the compound. She found it embarrassing to bother them so late at night.
“I haven’t seen Aiyun in more than ten years. I’ll go with you,” Fu Wan suddenly said.
Although Fu Chen’s expression didn’t change, a dark glint flashed across his eyes. “How will we sit?”
“Let’s just drive two cars. Jinye can come along too.” Fu Wan made the final decision, not giving Fu Chen a chance to refuse.
Since they were driving two cars, Fu Wan naturally kicked her son over to Fu Chen and dragged Song Fengwan into the other car.
Fu Chen had planned to use the opportunity of being alone together to ask Song Fengwan what had happened. Now that his plan had been ruined, he felt moody.
There was a ball of fire in his heart, making him feel anxious and unwell. When he got in the car, he didn’t even turn on the heating, nearly freezing Shen Jinye to death.

On the other side…
Fu Sinian was still in a meeting. His company wasn’t big, and he had rented an office building at a prime location in the city center. The employees were all his brothers who worked hard with him.
He still had a blind date at 7 p.m.
He took out his phone and took a look. He had given Yu Manxi his phone number, but after so long, not a single call had come.
He clicked on WeChat casually and saw a red dot on the directory icon. When he clicked on it, someone had added him as a friend.
The profile picture was of a girl lying beside a fish tank and looking at a small goldfish. It was verified as Yu Manxi.
Fu Sinian had registered his WeChat with his phone number, so it was easy to search.
His fingers hesitated, but he still agreed to her request.
Yu Manxi had just finished two interviews and was going home in a taxi. She had been staring at her phone the whole time. When she saw that the other party had agreed to add her as a friend, she was overjoyed.
But his nickname was: sdfghjk235.
Yu Manxi moved her fingers and changed his name: Niannian.
She let out a satisfied laugh.
She sent an emoji and a message. [When are you free tonight?]
Niannian: [It will be late at night.]
Little Fish: [What do you like to eat?]
Niannian: [It doesn’t matter.]
Yu Manxi pouted. She could imagine his aloof expression when he said this.
The caller ID she had given Fu Sinian was [Long-legged Aloof Man].
Little Fish: [Where are you? How about I find a place nearby?]
The tip of Fu Sinian’s tongue pressed against his cheek as the corners of his lips twitched slightly. [You can look anywhere near the condo.]
“Hey, Boss, who are you chatting with? Who’s Little Fish?” Someone happened to get up and walk past him.
Fu Sinian put away his phone and shot him a cold look.
“Boss, is it your blind date? You need to leave at seven, so we won’t delay you.”
“It’s fine. Let’s continue the meeting.” Fu Sinian was going on blind dates purely to complete his mission.
At the end of the meeting, Fu Sinian took out his phone and found that Yu Manxi had actually liked his WeChat Moments one by one. He rarely posted anything on his WeChat Moments about his life, and it was basically all about work and promotional advertisements. She had even looked through them post by post.
“Boss, who is this Little Fish? So many likes.” Someone came over.
Fu Sinian raised an eyebrow. “You’re still looking?”
“I just took a look. Boss, is this girl pretty?”
“Does this concern you?”
“It definitely has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with you. This girl definitely wants to woo you and is deliberately attracting your attention. If she doesn’t like you, who would dig through your old posts on WeChat Moments? She even liked them one by one!”
That seductress wants to woo me? Fu Sinian reached out to touch his glasses as dark undercurrents surged at the bottom of his eyes.

Beijing International Airport…
As soon as Qiao Aiyun and Yan Wangchuan came out, they saw Fu Chen and the others.
“Ah Wan?” Qiao Aiyun had known Fu Wan in the past. Back then, it had been inconvenient to keep in touch. Ever since they had each gotten married, they hadn’t seen each other. Now that they met, she felt as though a lifetime had passed.
“Aiyun, it’s really been a long time since we last met.” Fu Wan was very excited upon seeing a friend.
“Let me introduce you. Yan Wangchuan, my senior brother.”
“And fiancé,” Yan Wangchuan corrected her, causing Qiao Aiyun’s face to heat up inexplicably. Why is this person so persistent in such matters?
Fu Wan greeted Yan Wangchuan briefly before asking the two of them to get in the car.
Qiao Aiyun wanted to reminisce about old times with Fu Wan, so she naturally got in her car. Yan Wangchuan and Song Fengwan followed them, making Fu Chen and Shen Jinye look like they were complete bystanders.
Shen Jinye watched as Fu Chen’s face darkened in degrees and sighed helplessly. My dear mom, since Little Uncle has specially come to pick up his mother-in-law, he definitely wants to show off to her. Why do you keep butting in? You caused me to be unlucky as a consequence. You can’t dig a pit for your son like this.
Qiao Aiyun hadn’t told the two elders of the Fu family in advance when she was coming over. She planned to call tomorrow morning and pay them a visit. Because of Fu Wan, the two elders received the news ahead of time and asked them to come over to their house after dinner.
Old Madam Fu was very stubborn. Qiao Aiyun couldn’t dissuade her, so she could only follow along.

Old Fu residence…
The Song Jingren incident had caused an uproar, and the two Fu elders had paid attention to it. In addition to heartache, they felt great sympathy for Qiao Aiyun’s bitter experience. But she had brought Yan Wangchuan along when she left Yuncheng this time, and everyone knew what kind of relationship they had.
If she could find a good marriage partner again, the two Fu elders would naturally be happy.
Old Madam Fu dragged her along to chat. When she regained her senses, it was already nightfall.
“Aiyun, Wangchuan, don’t leave tonight. Sleep here. There are still guest rooms at home.”
“It’s too troublesome for you.” Qiao Aiyun was embarrassed.
“What’s so troublesome about this? Third Son and Wanwan, don’t leave either. Everyone, stay here tonight.” Old Madam Fu was in a good mood. She waved her hand and settled everything without giving everyone a chance to explain or decline.
The two Fu elders lived in a government-allocated house. It was indeed not small, but it was still a problem for so many people to stay in it.
Therefore, after the rooms were completely distributed…
Qiao Aiyun and Yan Wangchuan stayed in the same room.
The two entered the room with their suitcases.
It was a simple guest room with a bathroom, a large bed, a built-in closet-cum-table, and two wooden chairs.
The two stared at each other.
This single bed…
How are we going to sleep?
Qiao Aiyun walked into the room and looked around. After she had rushed around for a day, her legs felt sore. She sat on the side of the bed and casually took off her high heels before finally feeling more comfortable.
But Yan Wangchuan stood by the bed like a wooden stake.
Fu Chen and Shen Jinye were squashed on the same bed, so they naturally couldn’t accommodate him. Huai Sheng was sleeping in a child’s bed, so it would be inappropriate for him to go over. Yan Wangchuan frowned deeply. Can I really sleep in the same bed?
His Adam’s apple glided, and his throat felt dry and hot.
Qiao Aiyun knew very well that she couldn’t escape the fate of sharing a bed tonight. This was the Fu residence, and the bed was also very big. Naturally, nothing would happen. She had already gotten over it.
“Erm…” Qiao Aiyun coughed twice. “Do you want to shower first, or should I shower first?”
Yan Wangchuan’s ears instantly turned red. “You first.”
“Okay.” Qiao Aiyun looked for a change of clothes from her suitcase. Yan Wangchuan glanced twice at her and walked out directly.
Qiao Aiyun bit her lip, feeling inexplicably awkward.
This couldn’t be blamed on the Fu family either. Yan Wangchuan had said that the two of them would get their marriage certificate in June. They were still unmarried and in the midst of dating, and the guest rooms of the Fu family were insufficient, so it would definitely be arranged like this.
When Yan Wangchuan went downstairs, he bumped into Old Madam Fu, who was pouring water and taking medicine.
“Why aren’t you asleep yet? Why did you leave the room?” This was the first time she had met Yan Wangchuan. Although he didn’t talk much, he looked very reliable.
“I’m going out for a smoke.”
“Why are you smoking on such a cold day?” Old Madam Fu could tell that the two were still in the ‘getting to know each other’ stage. She had also found out that Yan Wangchuan had waited for her for more than 20 years. Naturally, she wanted to bring them together.
Yan Wangchuan pursed his lips and didn’t speak.
“Do the two of you still want a child?” Old Madam Fu asked in a low voice.
“We haven’t decided yet.” Yan Wangchuan definitely wanted one, but this wasn’t something he could decide alone either.
Being with her felt like a dream to him during this period of time. He didn’t dare ask for too much, as he was afraid of waking up and finding out that everything was fake.
“When I gave birth to Third Son, I was very old, and the risk was too high. If you two still want a child, you have to quit smoking and drinking. You have to prepare in advance. Pregnancy preparation is not a woman’s business alone.”
When Yan Wangchuan heard this, his expression immediately became serious.
***
The two chatted for a long time. It was nothing more than a discussion about the problems of an older woman giving birth.
When Yan Wangchuan returned to the room, Qiao Aiyun had already finished showering and was leaning against the bed, looking at her phone. Seeing him enter, she became nervous for no reason.
“You’re back?”
“Hmm.” Yan Wangchuan took out half a box of cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket and threw them all into the trash can.
“You can throw away the cigarette box after you’re done smoking, but you can’t use the lighter anymore either?”
“I quit smoking.” Yan Wangchuan’s expression was strict and solemn.
“Why do you suddenly want to quit smoking?” Qiao Aiyun chuckled lightly.
Before entering the bathroom, a certain someone said, “Preparing for pregnancy.”
Qiao Aiyun instantly blushed from her face to her neck..
