"They're doing quite well, all chubby!"
Looking at that face that resembled Chi Yuan's, Chi's mother's smile widened.
"Give me a hug too!"
With a smile on his face, Chi's father reached out and took the baby from Chi's mother's arms.
"My dear grandson is so adorable."
Chi's father gently squeezed the fox cub's little feet, and a smile appeared on his usually stern face.
"Come with me."
Seeing Chi's father with the child, Chi's mother grabbed Chi Yuan by the collar and led him to a corner.
"What happened? Such a big thing, and your dad and I haven't received a single word about it?"
Seeing that Chi's mother was very angry, Chi Yuan shook his head and began to explain.
"It wasn't intentional. I only found out about it a few days ago."
Chi Yuan recounted the whole story, but romanticized Shen Yulou's actions that night as a consequence of their uncontrollable passion.
"No wonder……"
Only then did Chi's mother's anger gradually subside.
"So what are you going to do now? Butler Shen can't just follow you around without any official status, can he?"
"What about An'an? We missed An'an's full moon celebration, so we should at least hold one for her, right?"
"Otherwise, what will others think of the Chi family? What will they think of you?"
Seeing the probing look in Chi's mother's eyes, Chi Yuan reassured her.
"I've discussed it with Yulou, don't worry, we won't let them suffer any injustice."
"That would be best!"
Hearing Chi Yuan's words, she felt relieved for the time being and turned to take her grandson with a smile.

The morning sunlight filled the bedroom.
Fu Wenchen opened his eyes, feeling a splitting headache from a hangover.
"Ah Chen, you're finally awake."
After getting up, Yun Jingze, who had been staying by Fu Wenchen's bedside, immediately helped Fu Wenchen up.
I accompanied him to wash up, and then thoughtfully served him a bowl of hangover soup.
"Let's have some breakfast first."
Yun Jingze served him a bowl of plain porridge.
"Where is Butler Shen?"
Fu Wenchen looked around but couldn't see Shen Yulou anywhere.
"Butler Shen left with President Chi yesterday; I guess he couldn't bear to leave his child."
Fu Wenchen was in a daze for a few moments before yesterday's memories slowly returned.
Silence fell over the table for a moment.
"Why isn't Ah Chen saying anything? Is it because the food I made isn't to your liking?"
Yun Jingze sensed the strange atmosphere between the two and immediately spoke to break the silence.
Observing the boss's emotions and addressing them promptly is also one of Yun Jingze's employee rules.
"No, I like it very much."
Fu Wenchen paused for a moment, holding the spoon, and then took another bite of the congee.
"As long as Ah Chen is happy."
Yun Jingze's face was still full of smiles, as if nothing had happened last night.
He is still Su Ying.
"what do you like?"
Fu Wenchen kept his hands moving, but kept his head down, not letting Yun Jingze see his face.
"Reading..."
Yun Jingze found the question absurd, but for the sake of his job, he decided to repeat Su Ying's hobbies again.
"It's not his, it's yours."
Fu Wenchen blurted out, and the two of them were stunned for a moment.
What do I like?
After a long while, Yun Jingze put down his cutlery and placed his hands on his thighs.
He repeated the sentence to himself.
"President Chi doesn't need to know; President Chi only needs to know Su Ying's hobbies."
After a long silence, Yun Jingze shook his head, indicating that this was outside the scope of the contract.
“I allow you to disregard the contract and tell me.”
After finishing the last mouthful of congee, Fu Wenchen put his hand down.
The two stared at each other across the table.
"I want to know."
Hearing that there was no follow-up, Fu Wenchen promptly added a sentence.
"I enjoy learning."
Yun Jingze took out a napkin and prepared to wipe the stickiness off his arms from eating breakfast.
"I enjoy exploring philosophy, I enjoy studying physics, I enjoy computational mathematics..."
He looked up and earnestly listed the things he liked, introducing them to Fu Wenchen one by one.
Fu Wenchen listened intently, his thoughts swirling in his mind.
