Due to issues with the betrothal gift, Qiao Xing's two-year relationship with her boyfriend collapsed overnight. Feeling disheartened, her elderly neighbor insisted his grandson go on a blind d...
Chapter 1060 So decisive?
Qiao Xing knew that in He Fen's heart, Linlin was still the child that Bai Yi had with another man.
So no matter what the relationship between Baiyi and the prince was, Fen could never treat Linlin as her own grandson.
What's more, Bai Yi is now pregnant.
If Bai Yi has a child, then Linlin will become an even bigger outsider in He Fen's heart.
The child is so young. If he senses that his grandmother only likes his younger brother or sister and neglects him, how hurt he will feel.
Qiao Xing's concerns were not unfounded, because He Fen's attitude towards Linlin was indeed quite indifferent before Bai Yi became pregnant.
Although He Fen accepted Bai Yi out of necessity, she could never truly treat Linlin, a child with whom she had no blood relation, as her own grandson.
Therefore, in many ways, she still felt distant from Linlin.
Wang Ye had specifically discussed this matter with He Fen before, because he was worried that Bai Yi would see He Fen's attitude towards Linlin and feel very uncomfortable.
But He Fen told Wang Ye that if Bai Yi got pregnant and they had a biological child together, she would definitely love Linlin as well.
Otherwise, she definitely wouldn't be able to love Linlin the way she would her own grandson.
Wang Ye was quite troubled by this for a while. He thought that if all else failed, he should simply stop letting Linlin have any contact with He Fen and Wang Yue.
But the child is kind by nature. When the two of them didn't go back to the Wang family for a while, he would ask them why they didn't go back to their grandparents' house, saying that he missed his grandparents.
This really made Wang Ye feel bad, but at the time he didn't think he had to make Bai Yi have another child, because he knew how hard it had been for Bai Yi to raise Linlin alone for so many years.
While it's certainly good for two people to have their own child, he can't just do things his own way.
Therefore, Wang Ye did not tell Bai Yi about the child.
He was also afraid that Bai Yi would overthink things, and he worried that if the two of them really had a child, his care and attention for Linlin would decrease.
Bai Yi's pregnancy this time was truly unexpected.
Even Bai Yi himself didn't expect it.
That time, neither of them took precautions, and Bai Yi was in the safe zone at the time, plus he was busy and forgot about it.
Not long after, Bai Yi discovered that her period was delayed.
Having a child is naturally a joyful experience, but it also brings more fear and anxiety.
Although he and Bai Yi had a good relationship, this child came too soon.
Wang Ye's hot pot restaurant business is stable, and the matter of opening a branch has been put on the agenda.
That's why Bai Yi felt that the child had come at the wrong time.
But since it already exists, and it's a small life after all, Bai Yi didn't want to be so cruel.
She and Wang Ye discussed it carefully and finally decided to keep the child.
But before that, Wang Ye had a serious talk with He Fen and Wang Yue.
Wang Ye told them that no matter whether Bai Yi's baby was a boy or a girl, they would treat the child well once it was born.
And because of this, we cannot neglect Linlin; we want them to treat Linlin as their own grandson.
Wang Yue and He Fen were overjoyed when they learned that Bai Yi was pregnant. They agreed to whatever Wang Ye told them without hesitation.
Of course, the elderly couple didn't just agree verbally. Ever since they learned that Bai Yi was pregnant, whenever they brought Linlin back home, the elderly couple were very enthusiastic and treated Linlin very differently than before.
Linlin was sitting on the sofa watching TV when she suddenly ran to the kitchen and said to He Fen, "Grandma, I want to eat fried chicken legs."
"Why do you want fried chicken legs again? They're oily and unhealthy. You just had two this morning, and now you want more."
Qiao Xing's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
But the next second she heard He Fen say, "I really can't do anything with you. Go sit down and watch TV, Grandma will blow you up right now."
"Thank you, Grandma!"
Linlin skipped away again.
Seeing this, Qiao Xing finally felt relieved.
Wang Ye said, "See? My parents have really changed a lot this time. They're not like before, always saying things with a barbed edge."
Qiao Xing said, "Are you sure it's not because Bai Yi is pregnant? What if her uncle and aunt's attitude goes back to what it was before after she gives birth?"
Wang Ye had worried about this issue before. He felt that Wang Yue and He Fen's change in attitude towards Bai Yi was largely due to the baby in her womb.
He was also worried that Wang Yue and He Fen had not truly accepted Bai Yi.
Moreover, He Fen prefers grandsons to granddaughters, so Wang Ye is afraid that if Bai Yi gives birth to a daughter, He Fen's attitude will be very different from before.
However, Wang Ye later realized that regardless of whether He Fen truly accepted Bai Yi or not, and regardless of whether she gave birth to a boy or a girl, as long as He Fen's attitude towards Bai Yi returned to what it was before after Bai Yi gave birth.
Then Wang Ye would never return to the Wang family again, and she wanted to make things clear to He Fen.
Wang Ye said to Qiao Xing, "Don't worry, I will not let Bai Yi suffer any injustice this time, and I also have ways to deal with my mother."
Since becoming the owner of a hot pot restaurant, Wang Ye has changed in every way, especially in terms of his demeanor.
Seeing how responsible he was, Qiao Xing was happy for Bai Yi. "Keep it up, I support you."
"Xingxing, Xiaoye, stop chatting and come eat," He Fen called to the two of them.
Today's dinner table is unusually lively. Although we can see each other often, the younger generation is busy with their own careers, so opportunities to sit down and have a proper meal like this are actually quite rare.
Qiao Xing carefully observed He Fen's behavior towards Bai Yi during the meal.
Qiao Xing didn't know why He Fen accepted Bai Yi, but judging from He Fen's behavior, Qiao Xing felt that she didn't seem to be putting on an act at all.
After all, if you really hate someone, even if you're acting, you won't bother to pretend.
After dinner, Qiao Xing and Qin Ce prepared to go back, while Bai Yi and Wang Ye also went back to their own residences.
Wang Ye saw Qiao Xin and Qin Ce out, while Qiao Xing and Bai Yi walked together.
Qiao Xing asked Bai Yi, "Where are you and Wang Ye living now?"
"It's the house I used to rent. Wang Ye bought it."
Qiao Xing was very surprised, "You bought it? So decisively?"
Qiao Xing knew that Wang Ye had always been very cautious about money, especially after what happened to him before. After that, no matter what happened, as long as it was related to money, he would think it over and over again.
