Having come to understand his own thoughts, the gloom in Fu Nanxiao's heart dissipated.
Grandma Fu rarely saw a determined smile on his face, and said happily, "That's how it should be. I believe you can do it well."
"I'll go back and wait for your news."
"Leave this to me."
Fu Nanxiao nodded and left first, a sense of hope rising in his heart for the first time. Even if Jiang Yilai still hated him, he hoped she could return to the Fu family.
When Jiang Yilai heard that Old Madam Fu had arrived, she became very flustered.
Compared to dealing with Fu Nanxiao, who angered her, she could handle him with ease.
But this person who had been kind to her made her even more unsure how to face him.
Li Luyao was also furious; would the Fu family ever stop?
He finally managed to sway Jiang Yilai's heart and get her to agree to marry him, but these ghosts just won't leave him alone.
"Lai Lai, I'll go and chase her away."
"No, he's an elderly person after all!"
"Fu Nanxiao must have said something when he went back. Knowing that his words didn't work, he brought the old lady here now."
Jiang Yilai was somewhat confused. Logically speaking, Fu Nanxiao was not the kind of person who would do such a thing.
That means the old lady knew the truth and came for the sake of the child.
Jiang Yilai certainly remembered how much the old lady wanted a great-grandson. Back then, she tried every means to get pregnant, and when she found out that Fu Nanxiao had forcibly aborted her, she was almost driven mad with anger.
Seeing Li Luyao's agitated state, Jiang Yilai felt deeply guilty.
"I'm sorry, Lu Yao, I'm always causing you trouble."
“I’m not afraid of trouble, I’m worried that you’ll waver. After all, you have a good relationship with the old lady. You might not be persuaded to go back by her.”
"Impossible, I will never go back to the Fu family."
"Lai Lai, as long as we get married soon, they won't bother you anymore. Let's register tomorrow!"
Jiang Yilai felt that he seemed to have confused some things. Their so-called 'marriage' was just a fake marriage, but the expectation in his eyes was real.
Was I really doing the right thing?
Realizing he was being too hasty, Li Luyao continued.
“I’m not trying to force you, I’m trying to help you solve these problems. You need to understand that the most ruthless person in the Fu family is the old man. He will not accept you.”
"I know, but it wouldn't be good to keep the elderly woman waiting outside. May I invite her in first?"
Such polite words did nothing to build rapport with him.
Li Luyao hoped she could be at ease by his side, and by bringing her back, he hoped she would consider this place her home.
"Of course you can. Here, everything you want to do will be respected."
"Thank you, Lu Yao."
He was really good, so good that Jiang Yilai thought about spending her whole life with him.
But the image of that person she both hated and missed kept popping into her mind. How could she accept him?
Jiang Yilai looked at the children playing in the yard and went over to clap her hands.
"Come here first, Mom wants to take you to see someone."
Since Grandma Fu also knew that she was in such a hurry to come over because she wanted to see the child, Jiang Yilai agreed to let them meet.
Jiang Wenchao led his younger sister forward and asked curiously, "Mom, who are we going to see?"
Jiang Wenxi also stared at her with wide, curious eyes, which could be considered as asking a question.
Jiang Yilai took a deep breath and smiled, "It's your great-grandmother. She knew you were here, so she came to visit you. I'll take you to see her."
The two children looked at each other. Their mother had never mentioned that they had any relatives over the years, and now that one had suddenly appeared, they felt somewhat lost.
