When Shen Jichuan answered the phone, he realized that the call wasn't from his comrades in the army, but from Yang Hongyu calling through the army's phone line.
"You're calling me at this hour, is there something you need?"
Shen Jichuan's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion, showing no impatience because it was Yang Hongyu calling.
He was unusually calm.
Yang Hongyu said, "Deputy Division Commander Shen, are you just going to ignore this matter between your son and my daughter? Even your elder brother knew to be polite and come to my house to speak well of your son, but you, as the father, don't care at all."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jichuan frowned.
His older brother?
Shen Zhenhua?
Why would he go to the Yang family to curry favor for no reason?
"What did Shen Haiyang tell you? Staff Officer Yang, our affairs don't involve the child. I'll take care of what I should do regarding their marriage. But I naturally won't interfere in what I shouldn't."
"Now that we've come to that point, since Staff Officer Yang likes him, why not let him become your live-in son-in-law? Don't worry, I won't feel uncomfortable about it."
"I promised his biological father that I would pay for the wedding. You don't need to worry about the rest."
Shen Haiyang repeatedly sought out outsiders for help, attempting to conspire with them to scheme against him.
A son like that is better off without.
Shen Jichuan and Yang Hongyu have been at odds in the political arena for a long time. Shen Haiyang has been Shen Jichuan's son for so many years, how could he not see this clearly?
He has now sided with Yang Hongyu.
Shen Jichuan need not linger on his memory.
Yang Hongyu originally intended to use Shen Haiyang to provoke Shen Jichuan, after all, Shen Haiyang was the son he had raised for so many years.
I never expected Shen Jichuan to be so ruthless.
“Shen Jichuan, Shen Haiyang is your adopted son after all. Aren’t you afraid that he will abandon you in the future if you do this?”
Shen Jichuan said coldly, "This is my family matter, Staff Officer Yang, you have no right to interfere in my affairs."
Yang Hongyu's comment, "Aren't you afraid you won't have any children to be filial to you in the future..."
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Jichuan hung up the phone.
After Shen Jichuan came downstairs, Wen Qiao sat on the bed and opened a few pages of a book. She thought Shen Jichuan would talk for a long time, but she didn't expect him to come upstairs so quickly.
Hearing footsteps approaching, Wen Qiao looked up.
"You finished so quickly?"
Shen Jichuan hummed in agreement. "It's nothing important."
He turned off the light, took the book from Wen Qiao's hand and placed it on the bedside table, then turned on the lamp. The whole action was very smooth and seamless.
When he pinned her down, Wen Qiao felt that Shen Jichuan was inexplicably a little anxious tonight.
"What's wrong?" Wen Qiao asked, slightly out of breath.
Shen Jichuan lowered his eyes and kissed the corner of her lips. "Xiao Qiao, would you mind having a child soon?"
They didn't try to avoid pregnancy, nor did they mention wanting to.
Yang Hongyu's sarcasm on the phone today was so strong that he couldn't possibly have missed it.
Although he is a bit old, he is in good health.
The key is Wen Qiao. Wen Qiao is still very young, not even twenty years old, just the age when she is like a flower bud. Would she be willing to have a child for him?
Wen Qiao reached out and climbed onto Shen Jichuan's neck.
She asked softly, "Do you want it?"
He has never married or had children, and treats his adopted son as his own. Wen Qiao even suspects that Shen Jichuan doesn't like children at all, which is why he acts this way.
Shen Jichuan said, "I don't know. I've never had that strong desire to raise a child."
