Fu Nanxiao was determined not to have children back then because he had experienced a tragic and painful childhood.
He made that choice because he didn't want his descendants to experience the same thing.
However, he overlooked Jiang Yilai's determination to have a child.
She lost her mother at a young age, and her stepfather's family had no feelings for her and even plotted against her, leaving her all alone in her world.
Therefore, she wanted children even more, to have the closest family members.
However, he cruelly rejected even such a simple request, which shows how disappointed Jiang Yilai was in him.
But he couldn't just admit defeat in the face of Li Luyao's provocation.
"I was wrong about what happened back then, and I will make it up to them in the future."
“You don’t have that chance. Lai Lai has already agreed to marry me. You’re too late.”
"You're lying. I want to hear her say it myself."
"Since you're still not giving up, I'll go and call her over right now."
Full of confidence, Li Luyao turned around and walked back into the house. When he saw Jiang Yilai, he deliberately put on a troubled look and frowned.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Yilai quickly ran forward and asked with concern, "What happened? Has he left?"
Li Luyao shook his head and sighed heavily.
“He refused to leave, saying that he already knew the child was his and he was determined to take it back.”
Jiang Yilai's heart tightened, and she said angrily, "What right does he have to say such a thing? He was the one who resolutely refused to have a child back then, and now he wants to take it away. It's simply shameless."
"You know how ruthless he is; he always does what he says, and this is very disadvantageous for you now."
"No, I can't let him take the child away."
Li Luyao held her shoulders and said softly, "Actually, it's very simple to solve this problem. As long as we get married and the child is registered in the Li family, he will not have the right to take the child back."
Jiang Yilai looked at him, her eyes filled with helplessness. Back then, she had risked her life to save her child, and now, was she being forced to take this step?
But keeping the child seemed to be the only option; she had no better choice.
Li Luyao added, "He was still waiting at the door, saying he wanted a response from you. To persuade him to leave, I told him that you had already agreed to marry me."
“This isn’t fair to you; we’ll only be a burden.” Jiang Yilai didn’t want to be a burden to him.
Li Luyao laughed and said, "If you insist on defining it that way, then it's a sweet burden. Wouldn't it be better to think of it that way? Let me be your protector and help you move forward."
Jiang Yilai was deeply moved, "Thank you for protecting us all the way. Without you, my son and I wouldn't be where we are today."
Li Luyao stroked her head, feeling Jiang Yilai's heart drawing closer to his. He believed that given time, she would open her heart to him.
"It's my honor. As for that person at the door, can you handle him?"
"I can, just wait a moment, I'll be right back."
Seeing her determined gaze, Li Luyao felt more confident.
Finally, under Fu Nanxiao's various pressures, he was able to win the heart of the beauty.
He actually hoped that Fu Nanxiao would be more extreme, so that he might be able to push Jiang Yilai directly into his arms.
When Jiang Yilai arrived at the gate, she saw Fu Nanxiao leaning against the car door, looking rather desolate and completely lacking his usual radiance.
Fu Nanxiao turned his head as he heard footsteps and his eyes met Jiang Yilai's. At that moment, he wanted to rush forward and hug her.
