Jiang Yubi looked at Lihua as she came out of those memories. "He was really afraid that I would make Wei the whole center of my world. You understand, right? Once a child is born, a mother's life revolves around him a lot. And Weizhe, who felt all alone in his life until I stepped in, felt threatened."

  Lihua was unable to gather her words. She parted her lips but couldn't say anything.

  "I know it's difficult to express it, right?" She smiled. "This is what I said in the beginning. It's a little hard to put it into words. His feelings. Everybody may find it silly and might even laugh at him for feeling threatened by his own child. But they are his feelings and fear that didn't stem out of nowhere. He has suffered loneliness so he feared it too. He felt as if he would become isolated if I gave all my attention to Wei just like how Old Madam had begun to favor Weiyuan. So……he became distrustful of the relationship between a mother and child."

  "B-But of course you wouldn't do that!" She pursed her lips.

  "I wouldn't have and I tried to explain to him the best I could, but he didn't listen to me," she sadly shook her head.

  "Then what happened?"

  "Well, then the accident happened and I asked Weizhe to let me keep the child. In the end, he agreed but he also said that we won't raise Wei. So, he handed him to Old Madam, which was going to happen anyway because of his Mafia King training."

  She sulked. "So he didn't let you and Wei meet at all?"

  Jiang Yubi patted her head. "Don't worry. If you think that I am angry with Weizhe then I am not. It was a really hard time for him. But I am sad too because Wei was slowly turning like Weizhe who had trouble comprehending his emotions and expressing them. But after my delivery and seeing my weak condition like that, Weizhe was even more angry at Wei and then he declared that Wei won't ever meet me."

  "But you do want to meet Wei, right? You definitely wish to see your son, don't you?"

  She lowered her gaze.

  Of course, she wanted to meet Wei. Until now, she had only seen him in pictures and heard about him through Weizhe. But she did wish to meet him in person.

  He was her son, after all.

  Lihua didn't need any more answers from her. She held her hand and looked at her with a determined light in her eyes. "You don't have to be sad anymore. I will definitely bring Wei here and reunite the mother and son. Even if Dad is really adorable like Wei, he won't be able to stop me!"

  She looked at her, surprised and chuckled. "Adorable? Well indeed both father and son are extremely cute," she smiled and then said, "I appreciate your thought, Lixue, but Weizhe would never listen to you."

  Lihua raised her brow. "I am his daughter-in-law he loves so much. Of course, he would listen to me. And if he doesn't, I have my ways of convincing him," she grinned——

  "This isn't convincing at all."

  At the breakfast table, Tian Meirong folded her arms as she stared at Fu Renshu and Meng Ya.

  "This only adds up to my theory that you two aren't dating at all. I suggest that you come out with the truth and leave this house, dear. Renshu already has me," she smiled.

  "……"

  Meng Ya was baffled.

  Where is this coming from? Like, we are having a peaceful breakfast here and did you have to open your mouth and ruin the atmosphere?

  Fu Renshu asked, "What do you mean?"

  She chuckled. "Aren't you two in a relationship and even living together at one house? So why aren't you two sharing one room?"

  Meng Ya choked.

  Well this hooligan has kidnapped me! Of course, we would be in separate rooms!

  Fu Renshu's brow slightly twitched.

  "Didn't you so passionately eat her cooking even though you don't like fish at all? I thought then you would definitely be living in one room as a couple," Tian Meirong narrowed her eyes, "But forget about living in the same room, Renshu's room is actually the farthest from Meng Ya's room. I would have at least expected that you would be neighbors, but I was wrong."

  "……"

  "……"

  Damn it!

  Meng Ya gritted her teeth.

  Why does this woman have such a sharp perception?

  She secretly glared at him.

  And you! Why the hell is your room so farther away!? Am I a virus or something you are running away from!?

  Fu Renshu kind of understood her burning question and he mockingly looked back at her.

  As if I would be that stupid to let a dumb woman live so near me and make me dumb along with her!

  And somehow, she could catch on to what he was thinking.

  She stomped her foot on his under the table and he slightly winced.

  Damn this gorilla woman! Just how much strength does she have?

  Meng Ya slightly panicked and racked her brains about what excuse to give.

  Ummm…ah yes!

  She smiled. "You are completely misunderstanding us. But it's pointless. I think I said that we were having an argument when you came? So……I shifted my room in a fit of anger!"

  Fu Renshu paused and stared at her.

  That was actually a good excuse…


  He tasted the food again and wondered.

  What is the magic potion here that gave her the brains to come up with that excuse? I need to find that ingredient…


  Tian Meirong said, "But haven't you two already made up?"

  She coughed. "Well Renshu has yet to completely cajole me."

  He puked.

  Excuse me? Cajole who?

  "You two still wouldn't give up huh?"

  Meng Ya narrowed her eyes. "So as you are trying to claim him even though you can see that we are in a happy relationship."

  Tian Meirong laughed. "Well, if it's really a happy relationship then let me test it. Let me see how much you remember stuff that got you two to date each other."

  Meng Ya frowned. She really didn't understand what she meant.

  "My first question. Where did you two meet?"
