The next day.
Fu Yuchen and Aunt Feng arrived at Xiang Wanwan's house carrying large and small bags of things.
Xiang Wanwan looked at the large and small bags and was somewhat surprised. Was this a marriage proposal?
"Aunt Feng, what's going on here?"
"Wanwan, I'm really sorry to bother you today. I'll be frank with you. My rascal had a past with Xiaoxue, so we wanted to ask about her and her child."
Xiang Wanwan understood immediately; they had come to confirm whether the child belonged to the Fu family.
She sized up Fu Yuchen. He was about 1.7 meters tall with a square face. He wasn't exactly handsome, but he was alright.
But looking at Fu Yuchen, she didn't think he was capable of doing something so irresponsible.
“Aunt Feng, I can’t say much about Shuxue’s privacy. How about this, I’ll ask her later and get back to you.”
"Of course, of course. This kind of thing was originally our fault as men."
She patted Fu Yuchen, her words full of reproach.
"It's all because my son is irresponsible that Xiaoxue is in this state. If this child really is from our Fu family, please tell Xiaoxue that we will definitely take full responsibility."
"I'll marry her in a grand and glorious way."
Fu Yuchen finally spoke up: "My relationship with her... was an accident, but I'm not an irresponsible person. If she's willing, I can marry her."
Judging from the tone of the mother and son, they seemed certain that the child was Fu Yuchen's.
That's true, Xiang An and Fu Yuchen looked exactly alike when they were young, so who would believe it if I said there was nothing between them?
They didn't go directly to Xiang Shuxue, but came to her instead. This was probably because they wanted to sound out her intentions, and also because she was now Shuxue's nominal older sister, so they came to her first.
He used his own words to convey the message to Xiang Shuxue.
"Okay, I will pass on your words to Shuxue. As for what she decides, that's her business."
"Okay, thank you Wanwan."
Fu Yuchen also stood up and bowed to Wanwan, "Thank you, Chief's wife."
"Commander Fu, you're too kind."
After the Fu family mother and son left, Wu Ma came out of the room carrying the child.
"Madam, is Xiang An really this Commander Fu?"
"I think so."
"Aunt Wu, I'm going over there. If the baby is hungry and crying, just come and call me."
Wu Ma gently patted Lu Chen in her arms and said, "Alright, Madam, go ahead with peace of mind."

When Xiang Wanwan arrived here, she had just stepped into the courtyard when she heard the baby crying.
She hurried into the house.
Xiang Shuxue was holding and comforting Xiang Yang, while Xiang An on the bed was crying her heart out. Suddenly, she roared.
"Cry, all you do is cry! Do you believe I'll throw you to your dad's place?"
"His dad? Fu Yuchen?"
Xiang Wanwan quickly picked up Xiang An from the bed and comforted him.
Xiang Shuxue looked at Xiang Wanwan, unsure what to say, and after a long while finally managed to say, "You know everything?"
"Is it hard to guess? Aunt Feng said Xiang An looks exactly like Fu Yuchen when he was a child."
"And just now Aunt Feng and Fu Yuchen came to my place. They said that as long as you are willing, Fu Yuchen will marry you."
She had barely spoken when Xiang Shuxue said firmly, "No, I will not get married."
Having just escaped one fire pit, she didn't want to jump into another.
She's doing fine as she is now.
Xiang Wanwan didn't try to persuade her too hard, but suggested, "You don't have to marry him, but he is, after all, the father of your child. Xiang An should enjoy the love of a father."
"Children with fathers feel more secure and happier than those without children. I think you should understand this deeply."
