“Yes. Yue Yue just got pregnant. There must be many things that she doesn’t know. She can take the opportunity to talk about it with Su He. I am sure my brother won’t object.”
Mu Tingfeng pondered for a moment after hearing what Zhao Youlin said. He had to admit that Zhao Youlin was right. So he nodded and agreed to Zhao Youlin’s suggestion.
Zhao Youlin always took action once she made a decision.
On that same afternoon, Zhao Youlin called An Yue and Han Yichen to tell them her plan.
When Duan Yarong learned of this matter, she did not approve at first. She worried a lot for her grandchild, An Yue and Han Yichen’s first child. She had been hurt twice when it came to the birth of a child, which traumatized her a little. Duan Yarong could only feel at ease if she could just keep her daughter-in-law at home all the time and never leave her sight.
Unfortunately, despite that’s what she wanted, An Yue felt really uncomfortable staying home and being a moocher. So she would still go and help out at Zhao Youlin’s pastry shop.
Duan Yarong had no choice but to take a step back and ask An Qi to keep an eye on An Yue.
An Qi was surprised as well when she heard that An Yue was pregnant. Of course, she was really happy for them after that. Hence, she naturally obeyed Duan Yarong’s request strictly. She did not let An Yue get tired at all.
One of the reasons why Duan Yarong did not want An Yue to go with Zhao Youlin to Zhao Residence was because she was not comfortable with An Yue going out in this situation. The other reason was that she had heard the rumors about the Su family and was worried if any unforeseen incident would occur while An Yue was there.
That being said, Duan Yarong eventually gave in under the persuasion of Han Yichen and Zhao Youlin, provided that Han Yichen went with them and brought An Yue back unharmed.
On the day they were going to Su Residence, Joy, who was so excited, got out of bed early and ran to Zhao Youlin’s room to wake them up.
Since they could not go back to sleep, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng got up early as well. They went to Zhao Residence to pick up An Yue and Han Yichen, and headed to Su Residence.
Though what Zhao Youlin and the others did not expect was that aside from Su He and Ye Yan, they would see two familiar figures that were not supposed to be here at Su Residence.
“Goo goo ga…”
Along with an unknown babble from the baby crawling on the soft floor, the couple sitting on the sofa raised their heads at the same time and looked at the people who came in from the front door.
“Oh, you guys are here too.”
“What… What are you doing here?” Zhao Youlin looked at Su Qing and Song Yi, who were sitting beside Su He with a surprised expression on her face. Mu Tingfeng, who walked in behind Zhao Youlin, was a little taken aback as well when he saw them. His brows furrowed.
“What? You don’t want to see us so much?” When Su Qing heard what Zhao Youlin said, she pouted and pretended to be upset.
The corner of Zhao Youlin’s lips twitched. She hurriedly explained, “No, of course not. It’s just that I heard that you had gone abroad for your honeymoon. So I was just surprised when I suddenly saw you here.”
As one of Mu Tingfeng’s closest cousins, Su Qing and Song Yi were not present when Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin got married, which Zhao Youlin found strange at the time.
Although she did not know Su Qing very well, she could feel that she really cared about her cousin brother, Mu Tingfeng. And when she and Mu Tingfeng were separated, she knew that Su Qing actually hoped that the two of them could get back together, otherwise she would not have clarified about her relationship with Mu Tingfeng to her on purpose, hoping that she would not misunderstand.
That’s why it seemed weird that Su Qing and her husband did not attend her and Mu Tingfeng’s wedding.
Zhao Youlin was puzzled by it for quite a long time. In the end, she could not resist her curiosity and asked Su Ruixin about it. That was when she learned that not long after their baby’s one-month old birthday banquet, the unreliable couple had left their newborn child behind and flew abroad for their honeymoon. Even the child’s grandparents could not reach them. So it was impossible to convey the news of Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng remarrying to them, let alone inviting them to come back to attend.
Zhao Youlin was speechless for a long time after she heard that. She mocked them internally that they were very carefree indeed.
It had been nearly six months since she last saw them both at their child’s birthday banquet.
It was such a nice surprise to see the two of them who had been missing for so long, here at Su He’s place.
Su Qing smiled and accepted Zhao Youlin’s explanation. “We received Xiao Qi’s wedding invitation when we just came back yesterday. We were quite shocked. We only knew what had happened after we talked to my aunt. So I rushed over early this morning to see how Xiao Qi is doing.”
“I see.” Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she pulled An Yue forward and began to introduce An Yue and Han Yichen to them. “This is my sister-in-law, An Yue. The one behind us is my elder brother.”
As soon as Zhao Youlin finished speaking, Su Qing said with a look of dawning realization, “Oh, I know.”
“You knew?”
“We heard about it on our way back.” As Su Qing said that, she even pouted with a regretful expression, “I had no idea that so much had happened in just six months when Yi and I were away. Not only have you reunited with your brother, you also remarried Tingfeng. I can’t believe I even missed your wedding. This is unbelievable.”
The expression on Zhao Youlin’s face was slightly awkward. Before she could say something to console her, Su Qing changed the subject, “But Xiao Qi here surprised me the most. Xiao Qi, you always seem so obedient. I didn’t expect that you would turn out to be the most impressive one among us by skipping dating and marrying, and going straight to having babies with the man you love.”
“Su Qing!” Su Qing’s words had made Su He completely red. She could not help but yell out loud to stop her from talking.
Compared to her bashfulness, Ye Yan was much calmer, looking like an obedient husband. He was sitting beside Su He. He would hand her a piece of fruit from time to time. He was watching Su Qing make fun of Su He with a faint smile on his face.
Zhao Youlin smiled too as she saw that Su He’s face had completely reddened because of Su Qing’s words. Zhao Youlin mercifully changed the topic and introduced Su Qing, Su He and the others to Han Yichen and An Yue.
“Yichen, Yue Yue, these two over here are the Song family’s youngest master and his wife, who is also Tingfeng’s cousin.”
Han Yichen had known how Mu Tingfeng was related to the Su family, but he did not know that the Su family and Mu family were also related to the Song family, which was one of the most powerful families. His eyes flickered a little, and he greeted them together with An Yue.
Su Qing and Song Yi nodded politely to them in response.
“These two over here are the ones I told you about before. Su He, the eldest daughter of the Su family, and Ye Yan, the president of Ye Group.”
Zhao Youlin had already informed Su He in advance. She told her and Ye Yan and her sister-in-law were pregnant too, and she would like to come here and discuss pregnancy stuff with her. Su He, of course, welcomed her with open arms.
And An Yue’s gaze had been fixed on Su He’s visibly large belly ever since she walked closer to her. She looked exactly the same as Joy who was clinging to Zhao Youlin’s leg at the moment..
