"Is there a problem?" Qiao Wanwan asked. "Zhan Yin and I are already quite familiar with each other. He has no bad intentions and is smart. If he can join the Dijing Group to help Jing Ting share some of the burden, that would be the best outcome."

"Besides, he's so young, he can't just stay at home and wait to die, can he?"

Cheng Zaozao was a little worried, "But his dad..."

“I know your concerns, but his father is his father and Zhan Yin is Zhan Yin. I have always kept them clearly separate, and Zhan Yin has never been controlled by his father.”

"That's true. Although Zhan Yin may seem carefree and irresponsible, he is still quite opinionated."

"yes."

Cheng Zaozao smiled and said, "I was just worrying unnecessarily."

"I know you're doing this for the good of the Dijin Group and for the good of this family."

“Sister, I’m quite busy right now, and I rarely even go back to Wutong Bay. I can’t help you with anything else.” Cheng Zaozao said, “But I’m very happy for you that you’ve found your biological parents. The Huo family is the richest family in Haicheng, and your family members are all well-mannered and cultured people. This is something to be very grateful for. Sister, you are luckier than me.”

Qiao Wanwan held her hand. "Zaozao, your background doesn't prove anything, and it's something we can't change. You're doing well now, so there's no need to look back, and you shouldn't look back."

"Sister, I know, it's just that I can't help but feel sentimental sometimes." Cheng Zaozao tugged at the corner of her lips. "Lately, I often think of Brother Lin Mo."

Qiao Wanwan frowned. "Why did you suddenly think of him?"

"I don't know, I just can't help thinking, how wonderful it would be if Brother Lin Mo were still alive, and he had let go of his obsession and was living his own life..."

"Zaozao, Lin Mo is not worth our remembrance. Even if you think of him, he should be a negative example to learn from, understand?"

“I understand,” Cheng Zaozao said. “Even though I feel sorry for Brother Lin Mo, we shouldn’t forget what he did wrong and how he died.”

"Yes, he brought this upon himself and he serves as a negative example for us. We should all take him as a warning and strive to be kind people."

"Um."

Qiao Wanwan hugged her, "Zaozao, my wish now is for your husband to be safe and sound, for the children to be healthy, and for me to see you get married and have children."

Cheng Zaozao chuckled, "Sister, what are you saying? I'm still a long way off. Don't count on me. Instead of counting on me, you might as well cure your husband's illness and then have a daughter."

"To be honest, I really do want a daughter." Qiao Wanwan sighed. "The reason why the Huo family has only had sons for generations and can't have daughters is because a genetic disease has changed the chromosomes. I hope that after Jingting's illness is cured, things will change and I can have a little princess."

"Sister, it definitely will." Cheng Zaozao said with great anticipation, "If you have a daughter, that will be amazing. She will definitely be the apple of everyone's eye."

Qiao Wanwan's imagination of that scene instantly sparked her anticipation. "Although Jingting also dotes on his sons, men are all doting fathers. I believe that if we have a daughter, he will spoil her rotten."

"Yes, that's for sure!"

......

Mentioning her daughter stirred up Qiao Wanwan's heart, and after her walk, she went straight to the laboratory to get busy.

Around 11 o'clock, the laboratory door opened, and Zhan Jingting, dressed in dark pajamas, walked in.

"What time is it? Aren't you going to rest?"

Qiao Wanwan glanced at the time. "It's so late. I didn't realize. You should go to sleep first. I'll keep working for a while longer."

Zhan Jingting stepped forward. "You've always understood the principle that haste makes waste, so what's wrong with you today?"

Qiao Wanwan smiled slightly, "I talked with Zaozao about having a daughter tonight, so I'm really motivated. Maybe we can have a daughter once your illness is cured."

Zhan Jingting: "......"

"We already have enough children. Pregnancy is hard work. I don't want you to have any more."

"It sounds simple, but not having a daughter is a regret to some extent, so I want to have one."

"Although I feel sorry for you, I'm still very happy to hear you say that." The man hugged her from behind. "What have I done to deserve you having my child?"

"Silly girl," Qiao Wanwan said with a smile. "I didn't just want to have a child for you; it's also for myself. As long as I can cure your illness and have another daughter, my life will be complete."

Zhan Jingting's gaze deepened. "Then let's work hard."

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"Something's not quite right to me about what you're saying?"

"Is there?"

"It seems so."

The man chuckled softly and scooped her up in his arms.

"Ah!" Qiao Wanwan exclaimed in surprise, "Zhan Jingting, what are you doing? I'm not finished yet!"

"I'm not busy anymore."

"......"

......

The next morning, Qiao Wanwan went for a run and saw that Grandpa Huo was already practicing Tai Chi in the garden.

Qiao Wanwan smiled and stepped forward to greet him, "Good morning, Grandpa."

Old Master Huo was immediately taken aback!

Qiao Wanwan was also stunned, but the two quickly exchanged a knowing smile.

For Qiao Wanwan, changing her address was only a matter of time; it would happen naturally without any effort.

With tears in his eyes, Grandpa Huo said, "Wanwan, good morning."

Qiao Wanwan said, "I didn't expect you to be here before me."

"I'm getting old, I can't deny it. I need to exercise regularly so I don't hold you back."

"Grandpa is right."

"So, are you interested?" Grandpa Huo invited warmly. "Would you like to practice with Grandpa?"
