Seeing Yu Wanhua hesitate, Shen Huaifeng continued,

"I'm not thinking about myself. After all, we're still husband and wife. Nianchu is dating Mr. Lu so publicly now. If the marriage news gets out in the future, you don't want people online to talk about our family background, do you? You don't want everyone to talk about Niannian's original family, do you?"

"My daughter is a public figure. As her family, shouldn't we put ourselves in her shoes and consider her more? Of course, I'm also thinking about you. What are you talking about now... your situation... right?"

After all, there were other people in the room. Although Shen Huaifeng didn't say it explicitly, Yu Wanhua knew what he meant. He was just sick and didn't have much time left.

Cruel, but indeed very realistic, Yu Wanhua glared at the man angrily,

"Are you considering Nian Nian now? Why didn't you consider her when you cheated on her? Why didn't you consider Nian Nian when you had an illegitimate child with that woman?"

Shen Huaifeng was angry, but he finally controlled his temper.

"Am I doing this for myself? Am I not doing this for our family? Am I not doing this for Nianchu?"

"You said you'd leave then... ah, many years later I'll leave too. Am I going to leave Nianchu alone in this world with no one to rely on?"

"You can't have children. You were so naive and impulsive back then. You completely cut off all ties with the Yu family. Do you have the heart to watch Nianchu be all alone? Even if she gets married in the future, can her husband be treated the same as her blood relatives?"

"Now there's another person in this world who's related to her by blood, and that's her support! We're a family after all, and as parents, we should leave our children with some dignity, right? We should put their future first, right?"

Ye Huan had been eavesdropping at the door, and the more he listened, the more confused he became.

"Damn, does he have any sense of responsibility? He actually put the blame for his infidelity on my aunt."

Mother Zhao was angry, but she could do nothing about it. She lowered her voice and said, "It has been like this all these years."

As an outsider, she saw everything clearly and always felt that Yu Wanhua was brainwashed by Shen Huaifeng.

But Shen Huaifeng just happened to grasp Yu Wanhua's weakness and knew that Shen Nianchu was the only one she couldn't let go, so he could easily control her again and again.

The more Ye Huan thought about it, the angrier he became. "Who is he cursing? What does he mean by 'when Aunt Yu is gone'? It's really like a dog can't spit out ivory..."

Perhaps because she knew that she didn't have much time left, Yu Wanhua felt very sad when she heard Shen Huaifeng's words, and she couldn't help crying again.

Shen Huaifeng was very considerate and gave her a tissue.

"Besides, when our son tragically died young, and later on, you couldn't have another child due to your health problems, didn't I make every effort to accompany you? Did I always do my best to take care of you? Did I accompany you to your medical treatment without complaint, no matter how busy I was at work? Who else could do that, huh?"

"But Wanhua, I get tired too. I really went from being full of hope to being disappointed, and then to despair. Anyway, you've always been in poor health, and it's impossible for you to have another child. Why bother putting so much pressure on you? Now that we have Zimo, don't we solve all the problems? Don't you agree?"

Ye Huan couldn't stand it anymore and rushed out, "What's right? I thought only young scumbags nowadays would think of PUA, but I didn't expect to see you use this trick today? I'm shocked."

An unnatural look flashed across Shen Huaifeng's face, and he said unhappily,

"How can you say that? Wanhua is my wife and my daughter's biological mother. I'm doing this for their own good. How could I possibly PUA her? As Nianchu's friend, you should have the proper respect for her father, right?"

"I've always been rude. As for whether you're a PUA or not, why don't you tell me what you just said in front of Nian Nian and let her judge?"

"You...", Shen Huaifeng was unable to come up with any excuses after all, and looked down at the sad and stunned Yu Wanhua.

"Anyway, now that I've said this, think about it carefully and persuade Nian Chu for me. If the Shen family is doing well, she will naturally have more confidence if she marries Lu Jinzhou in the future."

After Shen Huaifeng left, Ye Huan saw that Yu Wanhua was still worried. Could it be that she was really being PUA?

"Auntie, he's wrong. He's just making excuses for his infidelity and shirking responsibility. You mustn't be brainwashed by him. Nian Nian has always been a strong girl. She doesn't need you to do anything for her."

Yu Wanhua pulled the corner of his mouth, "I know, I'm just a little tired. You guys eat, I'm going to sleep for a while."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the bedroom, his back revealing boundless loneliness.

Ye Huan wanted to send a message to Chen Nianchu, but after thinking it over again, he thought it would be better not to disturb him since it was probably dinner time, so he sent a WeChat message to Jiang Qinian:

[How is my Nianbao now? ]

Jiang Qinian: [In the Shura Field.]

A secretly taken picture was also attached. Xue Shuyi was sitting on Lu Jinzhou's left, and Shen Nianchu was sitting on his right.

Ye Huan was really going crazy begging...

…

Lu family.

Mr. Lu and Lu Zhiyuan were both quiet people, and some were rather serious, so Shen Nianchu was somewhat restrained.

Fortunately, Jiang Shuyin, Lu Xingzhou and Jiang Qinian were talkative, and with Lu Jinzhou's attentive care, the meal was a very pleasant one.

Of course, Mrs. Lu was not idle either. She was busy taking care of Xue Shuyi. "I didn't know you were coming today, so I prepared most of the dishes spicy. I remember you couldn't handle spicy food before."

They are all prepared according to the flavors that Shen Nianchu likes.

"I can eat spicy food now, grandma. I couldn't before, but now I like it even more when I'm abroad. I guess Nianchu went abroad to study too early, so he has a special liking for spicy food, right?"

Shen Nianchu smiled faintly, "Yes."

Mrs. Lu glanced at the particularly considerate Lu Jinzhou, and was shocked. She felt displeased.

"Tastes do change as people grow older, but if two people are dating and getting married, it's best if they have similar lifestyles and interests. Forcing someone who can't handle spicy food to like it is kind of far-fetched, isn't it?"

In the past, I was too lazy to peel shrimps and didn’t even eat them myself, but now I don’t mind the trouble for Shen Nianchu?

Shen Nianchu: “…”

Instead of saying this, it would be better to just read out her and Lu Jinzhou's names.

She touched the man's slender legs under the table, signaling him to stop peeling.

Lu Jinzhou didn't care about that. He took off his gloves after peeling the beef, put the boiled beef into his bowl with a large chopstick, and said slowly,

"That's called loving someone and loving their dog. Why didn't you like tea before, but all these years with Grandpa, you can't put it down. Do you think that's far-fetched?"

Don't give the old lady any face at all.
