The two men, both in their thirties, were speechless; this young girl really knew how to speak eloquently.

Song Yunzheng chuckled and pinched her cheek. "You're such a little devil, where did you find all this information?"

"My mom told me that."

"You've only lived in courtyard number 15 for a month, and she's been talking to you about these kinds of things?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect Mom to be even more gossipy than me." Lin Yue smiled sheepishly.

Song Yunzheng shook his head helplessly, "Eat more, you still need to grow."

Looking at the loving couple, Tang Shiting felt increasingly frustrated. "Hey, can you two please consider my feelings?"

Lin Yue winked at Song Yunzheng, signaling him not to focus on her for the time being. "Hehe, Teacher Tang, I think you should first find out if the child is really yours. Only after you find out that can you plan your next steps."

While serving food to Lin Yue, Song Yunzheng said, "He wants to as well, but the other party absolutely refuses. The girl's father only wants to devour him whole, transfer the car and house to his daughter's name, hand over all his savings, and insist that the child take the girl's surname. If you don't agree, he'll go to your school and cause a scene. He's already done it twice..."

"Ah...isn't this just a way of asking Teacher Tang to marry into the family?" Lin Yue put down her chopsticks and looked at Tang Shiting with a face full of sympathy.

Upon hearing this, Song Yunzheng burst into laughter, "Yes, that's exactly what it means, marrying into the family."

Tang Shiting glared at them, annoyed. "That's enough, you two. Are you deliberately trying to make fun of me...?"

He scratched his head in frustration, wishing he could make a bird's nest out of it. "It's all that damn alcohol's fault!"

He still remembered that night when he was drinking alone in a bar, and Jiang Xiaonan suddenly appeared out of nowhere and plopped down next to him.

"Teacher Tang, why are you drinking alone? I'll keep you company."

Tang Shiting habitually adjusted his glasses, his hazy, captivating eyes beginning to sparkle. "A beautiful woman accompanying me for drinks is the best I could ask for."

Tang Shiting subconsciously adjusted his glasses, his previously misty eyes now unabashedly sparkling. "Having a beautiful woman by my side is truly a blessing."

Moreover, he was already well aware of Jiang Xiaonan's ulterior motives towards him. By day, he was a model teacher, but by night, he no longer saw himself as one. Alcohol, like a demon, eroded his brain; he drank more and more until he was completely drunk. When he woke up again, he found himself in a hotel, with someone else beside him.
