“Could it be that I often nagged when I was in the womb, causing him to have a rebellious mentality? He went against me all the way after he was born?”
Lou Ruoyi’s question made Shen Fanxing chuckle.
Was she asking him to find a wife since prenatal education?
“Jinghang, did you ask him to find you an outstanding daughter-in-law?”
Lou Ruoyi waved her hand and said, “When I was pregnant with him, I prayed with all my heart that he would be a daughter. In the end, he was also a rebel. As time passed, he grew taller and taller! I was so angry… so I hoped that he would give birth to a beautiful and cute granddaughter for me!”
Shen Fanxing’s lips twitched as she thought further. She skipped her daughter-in-law and went straight to her granddaughter.
However, there was a slight possibility that this wish would come true…
Looking at Lou Ruoyi’s blissful expression, Shen Fanxing couldn’t help but feel envious.
He envied her happiness now. He envied her for herself and her mother.
Her mother was such an outstanding woman, why did she have to marry into the Shen family…
Her expression was a little dazed, so she didn’t hear everything Lou Ruoyi said next. She only came back to her senses when she vaguely heard the coming-of-age ceremony.
“Back then, Jinghang was the one who insisted on getting a car for his coming-of-age ceremony. In the end, it was Jingchuan who gave it to him. Speaking of Jingchuan’s coming-of-age ceremony, Old Master prepared more than ten women for him to choose from. He was so angry that he almost destroyed the Bo family… By the way, your coming-of-age ceremony…”
Lou Ruoyi suddenly paused and covered her mouth.
Oh no!
She remembered that Jinchuan had instructed her not to mention her past, especially her coming-of-age ceremony. Why did she have to say it…
Shen Fanxing’s expression changed and Lou Ruoyi felt that something was amiss.
“Don’t worry, Mom… My coming-of-age ceremony was under my mother’s name. It’s enough to ensure that I don’t have to worry about food and drink for the rest of my life.”
Lou Ruoyi looked at Shen Fanxing with a forced smile. Her stubbornness made one sad.
“Your mother is a very capable woman.”
Shen Fanxing nodded and said, “Yes, she’s very capable, but she doesn’t have good taste in men.”
Lou Ruoyi nodded. “I’m glad that you didn’t inherit her taste in men. You chose my Jinchuan. Your taste can’t be any better!”
Shen Fanxing gave a bitter laugh and said, “Maybe… it’s really hereditary. I had a fiancé before… If not for Ah Chuan… we would have missed each other…”
“This should be fate.” Shen Fanxing was surprised that Lou Ruoyi didn’t react differently because she had a fiancé.
“Do you really have nothing against me?”
Lou Ruoyi raised an eyebrow and said, “I’ve been picking on you every day. I don’t like you. I’m the one who’s the most tired. Why should I find trouble for myself?”
She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Besides, you’re the one my son chose. If I don’t believe you, how can I not believe my son? Since my son has decided, it’s naturally the best.”
Shen Fanxing couldn’t help but feel touched.
She looked cold and indifferent, but her heart was easily moved.
Lou Ruoyi looked at Shen Fanxing. Even though she was holding it in, there was still a hint of pity on her face.
She suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked to Shen Fanxing. She stood there and held her head gently in her arms.
Shen Fanxing stiffened visibly.
Lou Ruoyi stroked her hair gently and said gently, “Don’t always be so tense. You don’t have to be so strong. You can be weak. What Jinchuan can give you isn’t just love. He will give you more, like us. We love him and he loves you, so we love you with him.”
Shen Fanxing bit her lips as tears welled up in her eyes.
“Thank you… Mom.”
She choked and buried her head in Lou Ruoyi’s gentle embrace.
She suddenly felt a strong sense of belonging.
Her stiff body gradually relaxed, and her thin shoulders trembled.
–
At the Bo residence, Bo Jinchuan’s face darkened as he waited for Lou Ruoyi and Shen Fanxing to return.
There was no response from Shen Fanxing.
In the end, he called his mother.
After rejecting Shen Fanxing’s calls several times, Lou Ruoyi, who had set her phone to silent mode, raised an eyebrow when she saw the caller ID. She patted Shen Fanxing’s reddened eyes before entering the washroom.
The moment the call connected, Bo Jinchuan’s cold voice sounded.
“Where is she?”
Good lord, she sounded as if she had kidnapped Fanxing.
“At the hotel.”
Bo Jinchuan’s face darkened and he stood up instantly.
“Where is it?”
“The club where Sichun will be attending the banquet tomorrow.”
Bo Jinchuan had already reached the entrance. He picked up his car keys and walked out.
“You can run away from home yourself! Don’t tell me you want to accept a disciple?”
Bo Jinchuan’s voice was cold. Was this her biological mother?
Leaving home with his daughter-in-law?
“What are you saying? You chased her away and now you’re blaming me?”
Bo Jinchuan hung up angrily.
–
Lou Ruoyi pursed her lips and put away her phone. She walked into the bathroom and took off the towel and bathrobe. She walked out of the bathroom and placed the items in an inconspicuous corner before walking to the living room.
Seeing Shen Fanxing sitting there with reddened eyes, her heart ached.
She stepped forward and ruffled her hair.
“I’ve prepared some water for you. Go take a bath and relax. I’ll arrange for dinner to be served.”
As she spoke, she brushed Shen Fanxing’s red face. It felt good to touch.
“I’ll arrange dinner…” said Shen Fanxing hoarsely.
“No need, no need. Hurry up and take a bath. Tonight… have a good rest.”
Lou Ruoyi pushed Shen Fanxing into the bathroom and couldn’t wait to remove her clothes and stuff her into the bathtub.
Shen Fanxing couldn’t stand his enthusiasm and quickly said, “I’ll do it myself.”
Lou Ruoyi didn’t insist. Seeing that she was really taking off her clothes, she walked out with a smile.
Not long after, Shen Fan heard Lou Ruoyi calling to arrange dinner.
Silence followed.
Lou Ruoyi was sitting on the sofa and texting her husband.
“Hubby, do you like boys or girls?”
“I like everything you give birth to.”
“I’m talking about your son.”
“Which son of mine has such a great function?”
“Annoying! Be serious.”
“Anything is fine.”
“Alright, twins then!”
“… Do you have the final say?”
“Come, husband, let’s pray together. [pray] [pray] [pray]”
“[praying] [praying] [praying]”
“Hubby is awesome.”
“Aren’t you going to give me a reward?”
“Muacks.”
“Not enough.”
“Then come back.”
“Yes!”
The two of them were chatting happily when Shen Fanxing’s awkward voice sounded from the bathroom.
“Mom… there’s no towel or bathrobe in the bathroom. Can you…”
Lou Ruoyi hurriedly stood up and replied, “I understand. Wait a moment.”
With that, she picked up the gift she had bought today and walked towards the bathroom.
