Two years into her marriage, Liu Fuying was still a virgin.
Her husband even personally suggested she find a pretty boy to keep—his only request was that she keep it discreet.

Chapter 93 Give Him a Name
"Mom, what are you looking at?"
"Ah?" Jiang Susu came back to her senses, smiled and touched her son's face, "I didn't see anything. Mother saw that it was still very lively down there, and just thought it was interesting. Come on and eat, those two boxes are still hot from the pot."
Although her expression was smiling, her eyes were full of calculation.
When she went downstairs just now, she saw the maid who always followed Liu Fuying. The two children were also downstairs. It was heard that Liu Fuying was very good friends with the widow of the store, but she did not help downstairs and went upstairs alone instead.
What's so important upstairs?
The time of waiting is always tiring. Chen Huaijun beside him had already eaten up two boxes of cakes. He looked around in the house for a long time and finally felt sleepy and fell asleep on the table.
Jiang Susu could hardly sit still.
She even suspected that she was overthinking. Maybe Liu Fuying just went to the side room to rest because he was not feeling well.
Looking at her son's sleeping face beside her, she also felt a little sleepy.
Unexpectedly, when I looked back during this moment of distraction, there was a sudden movement in the corridor opposite.
A person came out from the deepest room.
But it’s not Liu Fuying!
Jiang Susu took a deep breath, and the rolling of her throat seemed to lift her heart up high.
A man came out.
Liu Fuying...she actually had a secret meeting with a man outside her family.
And when she saw the man's face after he turned around, her eyes widened with an expression of extreme surprise.
"How could it be him?"
Jiang Susu murmured and turned sideways, a strange look beating violently in her eye sockets.
"How could it be such a coincidence that it had to be him?"
When she turned around again, Pei Zhouwu was no longer in the corridor opposite, but a smile gradually appeared in her calculating eyes.
"I was just worried about it. Now it's easy to solve."
…
As noon approached, the customers of the pastry shop gradually dispersed.
Chen Jieling went upstairs with some tea and when she pushed the door open she saw Liu Fuying sitting by the window.
"Ah Ying." Chen Jie Ling went to her side, put down the tea and asked her: "What are you looking at here? You didn't even look back when I came in, and I haven't thanked you yet. Today, thanks to the people you brought, otherwise Yiliang and I would not be able to handle it."
She poured tea for Liu Fuying, and the next moment she heard the wailing sound again.
He paused, looked at Liu Fuying and asked, "What's wrong?"
Liu Fuying rested her head on her arms and looked down with her face tilted. The endless stream of people on the street turned into unstoppable sorrow in her eyes.
"I was thinking about how to give a person a name."
After hearing this, Shen Jieling paused again and almost spilled the tea outside.
"Your brother should have told you. He saw everything that happened this morning."
"...He." Chen Jieling put down the teapot and moved to sit next to Liu Fuying. "He only told me that your friend would come to the shop with you, and he didn't say anything else, but..."
She grabbed Liu Fuying's shoulders and pulled him around.
"Aying, when he came in, Yiliang brought him to greet me. People say Yiliang looks like your two children, but when he is in front of him, it's not just like that, it's as if he was born."
Liu Fuying was amused and thought it would be great if Pei Zhouwu could really give birth to a child.
"Don't laugh, are those two children..."
"yes."
"That……"
"What should I do? I've been thinking about that, too."
Liu Fuying sighed again, turned around and lay down on the windowsill again.
"It's thanks to your brother's kindness that he didn't expose me today, saying that I was just meeting an old friend. If I really went to meet an old friend, why would I sneak out through the side door? Anyone with a little more caution would have guessed it. If your brother can see me now, others can see me tomorrow. It's a fact that cannot be hidden."
She reached back and groped for the teacup.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jieling handed the tea she had just poured to her and listened to her continue speaking.
"You know, I have lived like a widow in the Shen family for so many years, just for the family property that is in my hands. But if the truth comes out one day and it is known that my child is not of the Shen family's blood, what else can I get? So now the only way is for those who can inherit the Shen family to die, then I can have a chance."
“…”
Chen Jieling was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.
The only people who could inherit the Shen family's property, apart from Shen Xiunian, were the people from the second branch, his second uncle, and his second uncle's son.
Does Liu Fuying mean that they should all die?
"Ah...Aying, you must not act rashly."
Seeing her so nervous, Liu Fuying turned around and smiled at her, then said, "What are you thinking about? Do you think I want to kill them? I'm not that brave. The death I'm talking about is not that kind of death. I just think that if I can't get it, then I won't let them get it. I haven't worked in the Shen family for so many years in vain. I always have to hold some chips to protect myself, and throw them out when I have no choice, even if it means a fight to the death."
Back then, I went to Pei Zhouwu to borrow sperm in order to get pregnant.
Although the child is present, it is not entirely without omissions.
Even though Shen Xiunian might not care, it doesn't mean that others don't care. For example, if the second branch of the Shen family knew about her affairs, they would definitely make a big move to kick her out, so she had to be fully prepared.
"So, what are you going to do?"
"I'll go back and talk to Shen Xiunian first."
At this time, Shen Xiunian was sitting in a carriage, heading to Jiang Susu's residence.
The new house was elegant and clean, much better than the place where Jiang Susu and her son originally lived. Shen Xiunian stood outside the gate for a long time before he pushed the door open and went in.
“Daddy!”
Shen Huaijun was sitting in the yard, and when he saw Shen Xiunian, he immediately ran over.
"Dad, you didn't lie to me. You really came to see me."
Shen Xiunian squatted down and caught his body, but his hug was inexplicably hesitant and he didn't look very happy.
Hearing the noise, Jiang Susu also came out of the house.
She grinned at first, but when she saw Shen Xiunian's pale face, her smile suddenly froze and even faded away.
Shen Xiunian noticed her expression, but just remained silent.
He was already seriously injured and was slapped by Pei Zhouwu, which made him angry. His face looked very ugly.
After coaxing Shen Huaijun for a few words, he got up and walked in.
"After my mother's illness recovers in a few days, I will take you back to the Shen family." After sitting down, Shen Xiunian spoke to Jiang Susu.
"It doesn't matter to me whether I go back or not."
Jiang Susu still looked like she had no desires or requests, and seemed to be only thinking about Shen Xiunian.
"Is your mother sick again? The doctor said that she is getting older and older and must not be stimulated any more. I don't want your mother to get sick because of me again."
Shen Xiunian's mother never liked her.
At that time, Shen Xiunian brought her back to the Shen family and said he wanted to marry her. Her mother was already crazy and later she made a big fuss.
"None of this matters. If I really want to enter the Shen family, I'll have plenty of opportunities in these seven years. All I want is for you to be well."
Her words sounded very pleasant, but there was no sharp light flashing in her lowered eyes.
"It's just that today, I went to a newly opened pastry shop in the city, and I..."
