Thinking about it this way, what Gu Yanjun said must be true.
So, Gu Yanjun was forced into this situation at the time.
But……
Xie Mingzhu felt incredibly embarrassed no matter how she thought about it.
She had already given birth, and she no longer wanted to think about or investigate who the father was; she just wanted her child by her side.
But now the child's father has not only appeared, but he's also an acquaintance who lives in the same compound...
After that conversation, Xie Mingzhu kept agonizing over the issue, unable to figure out how to respond.
The child's father was right there, chasing after her to take responsibility, and he was a good person with good character and background.
Both sides faced difficulties back then, and were forced into their own situations.
Moreover, if you look closely, Gu Yanjun was the one who was forced into this situation; it's already quite generous of them not to make her take responsibility...
But things happened so suddenly, and although she had some feelings for Gu Yanjun, they hadn't known each other for very long.
In short, all sorts of concerns are mixed together, making it really difficult to make a decision. I don't know whether I should agree to let Gu Yanjun take responsibility.
After all, this is a lifelong commitment.
If it weren't for the fact that Shu Ying's due date is approaching in the next couple of days and preparations are needed in all aspects, Xie Mingzhu's attention would have been entirely focused on Shu Ying, leaving her no time to think about all this. She would probably be tormented by this dilemma.
Before she could figure things out, Gu Yanjun actually came knocking on her door again.
Xie Mingzhu took a deep breath, braced herself and stood up. The moment she looked at Gu Yanjun, her mood inexplicably calmed down.
At that moment, she seemed to suddenly understand something.
She hadn't really thought about starting a family before because she had met the wrong person in the past, and after going through so much, she still hadn't found a child. She just didn't feel like thinking about these things.
After returning to the Xie family, Xie Mingzhu's biggest wish was to have a child, just like Shu Ying, and live a happy and lively life with her child every day.
A home that is warm and welcoming is already a good thing.
But now, the wish to find the child has been fulfilled.
Xie Mingzhu pulled Gu Yanjun aside and spoke to him about these things.
"I am very satisfied with my current life. I have children, things I want to do, and a future I want to strive to achieve."
"And after careful consideration, I realized that the things I want to do and the future I want to achieve are all things I can accomplish on my own, without needing the help of others, and without necessarily having to form a family with another person."
"Besides, there's really no emotional foundation between us. To put it bluntly, what happened back then was just an accident."
"Moreover, I made a decision a long time ago to let go of the past and start a new life. I don't want to live in the memories of the past and be held hostage by it."
"Rather than starting a family for the sake of starting a family, I hope we can gently let go of the past, like turning the page of a book, turning the page and moving on to the future."
"Life is not a game; a family without a foundation of love will not be happy."
"Comrade Gu, what I yearn for is a family like my younger brother and sister-in-law's. If I can't achieve that, I'd rather not have it."
"To be honest, although I have some feelings for you, it's not to that extent. Can you understand?"
