Mother Pei sighed, "He has no taste. Never mind. I've picked out a few more for you this time. Take a look at the photos and I'll send them to you."

Pei Anan resisted from the bottom of his heart: "Mom, why are you still so persistent? I've tried one before, and she didn't like it. Why don't I just live like this for now? I feel pretty happy."

Pei's mother scolded: "How can a woman not get married? Everyone has to go through this. Stepping into a pit once doesn't mean you will fall into it again. Just try a few more times."

Pei Anan was reluctant: "Mom, I am really happier now than before."

Mother Pei didn't believe it: "You're just pretending to be happy."

Pei Anan: "..."

He looked at his sister for help.

Pei Qinghuan spread his hands.

After a long struggle, Mother Pei finally told the truth: "An An, I don't want you to be unhappy. I want to see someone love you and protect you. It's very tiring for a woman to raise a child."

Pei Anan clenched the phone tightly, her tone a little bitter: "Mom, I know you're trying hard, but I want to prove that I don't have to have a man, I don't have to have a man to prove myself, I can love myself."

Her sister looked at her with touching eyes. Pei Anan coughed uncomfortably: "Mom, let's not talk about it for now. My sister and I will go to see you tomorrow. We are going back now."

Mother Pei: "Okay, be careful on the way back."

Pei Anan hummed, hung up the phone first, and walked forward to hold Pei Qinghuan's arm: "Sister, let's go to the East Street corner to eat that delicious roujiamo, okay?"

Pei Qing laughed happily. He knew that his mother was obviously partial to him just now, and his sister was worried about him. He murmured, "Yeah, okay."

Mother Pei sighed as she watched the phone hang up. Father Pei came over and said, "Look, why are you so worried about the younger generation? They have their own way of living. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."

Mother Pei stared blankly ahead: "But I've taken care of An An all my life. Now I have to watch her make her way through the rest of her life alone. How can I rest assured?"

Dad Pei sighed, shook his head and walked away.

My wife is so partial to my eldest daughter and never says a word to her. Yet, she has grown up to be such a strong child and can even help the younger daughter. I don’t know whether this is right or wrong.

When Pei Qinghuan returned home from work in the evening, the lights in the living room were on.

She walked into the entrance hall puzzled, took off her shoes, and saw Gu Jinchen sitting on the sofa. She felt a little nervous for some reason.

Swallowing, he asked, "Mr. Gu, why are you still not asleep so late?"

Gu Jinchen took a sip of tea without looking up: "Grandpa called me back."

Pei Qinghuan put down the key and paused: "Grandpa Gu, are you missing you?"

Gu Jinchen remained silent.

Pei Qinghuan thought of how Old Man Gu had complained to her that afternoon about his grandson not visiting him, and smiled as she said, "Grandpa Gu must be missing you. This afternoon, he urged me for a long time to ask Mr. Gu to go back and see him more often. I even promised Grandpa Gu that I would bring Mr. Gu back with me next time."

She also thought about whether such a rash agreement would affect Mr. Gu's work, and she felt a little nervous.

"But Grandpa Gu has taken care of me a lot, so it's my responsibility to look after him. I wonder if Mr. Gu is free?"

She asked cautiously.

Facing her gaze, Gu Jinchen found it hard to refuse: "He is my biological grandfather. It would be unreasonable for me, as his grandson, not to go back and see him."

"I actually went to see Grandpa this afternoon, and he asked me to bring you something. Grandpa really likes you."

He looked at Pei Qinghuan with a questioning look, but unfortunately Pei Qinghuan was looking at the bag he handed him and didn't notice.

"Grandpa Gu, are you giving me back my things?"

Gu Jinchen: "Can you open it and take a look?"

Pei Qinghuan opened it with curiosity, and the first thing he saw was the words "pregnancy protection".

"Is this... a supplement for preserving pregnancy?"

Gu Jinchen's eyes flashed with scrutiny: "Do you know why Grandpa gave you these things?"

This woman probably told the old man that she was pregnant to get some benefits. She really dared to tell such a big lie.

In the past, many women who were pregnant had tried to scam him, but he refused to respond. This woman set her sights on the old man and tried a different approach. Unfortunately, she probably didn't expect that he would be so cautious as to ask directly.

Gu Jinchen looked at Pei Qinghuan indifferently, wondering what excuse this woman would use to cover up her lie.

Pei Qinghuan was stunned, and then his ears turned red little by little.

Gu Jinchen frowned, not expecting this reaction.

Pei Qinghuan coughed awkwardly: "Gu, Mr. Gu, haven't you opened it and looked at it?"

Gu Jinchen paused and shook his head.

But there was a hint of inexplicable guilt in his eyes.

For some reason, seeing the woman blushing at this kind of thing, his face also started to get hot.

Pei Qinghuan tugged at his sleeves and said, "Grandpa Gu might just want a grandson... too much."

Gu Jinchen was speechless.

Is that all? Didn’t this woman fan the flames?

Then, he saw the woman in front of him, who was still blushing, sit up straight with a serious look in her eyes.

He inexplicably stepped back, not realizing what her intention was.

Pei Qinghuan placed his hands on his knees and said, "Mr. Gu, I think it's time to hold a long-term cooperation meeting."

Gu Jinchen was confused: "What meeting?"
