Wu Liang took Wu Zhenzhen back to the Wu family, knowing he could no longer keep her under house arrest. These days, whenever he closed his eyes, Zhenzhen's figure and her bright smile would appear in his mind. He found himself missing her more and more, and this longing made him feel painful and uneasy.

Wu Liang realized that he had to change his attitude and behavior to win Zhenzhen back. So, he decided to stop restricting Zhenzhen's freedom and give her more space and time to do what she wanted. At the same time, he began to reflect on his past actions and worked hard to correct his mistakes.

Wu Zhenzhen originally thought that if Wu Liang took her away, she would definitely return to that closed and dark world, a suffocating place with no sunshine, no warmth, only endless darkness and loneliness. However, things turned out to be beyond her expectations.

Wu Liang did not take her to that terrible place, but took her back to Wu's home. When they appeared in front of Wu's parents, Wu's mother could not help but walked forward and hugged Zhenzhen tightly.

"Poor child, you must have suffered outside these days. It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." Mother Wu's eyes were full of concern and heartache, and her voice was a little choked.

After all, Wu Liang was his mother's only son, while Wu Zhenzhen was just an adopted daughter. Although his mother loved her dearly, she would have preferred her son to live a happy life if she had a choice. So, when Wu Liang offered to take Zhenzhen home, she agreed without hesitation.

However, seeing Wu Zhenzhen return safely, the joy in Wu's mother's heart was beyond words. She knew that no matter what, Zhenzhen was a member of the Wu family and she deserved the love and care of her family.

Wu Zhenzhen's tears flowed like a flood, unable to be restrained. During this period, although she was free from Wu Liang's surveillance, she felt extremely lonely and confused.

At this moment, she is already an expectant mother. Although it is difficult for her to accept the changes in her relationship with Wu Liang, the power of maternal love transcends everything at this moment.

She knew that the child was innocent and that she had to protect his safety at all costs. This emotional conflict plunged her into deep contradictions and filled her with worry and fear about the future.

Father Wu just looked at Wu Zhenzhen deeply, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. Then he turned his head and said calmly to Wu Liang: "Come with me to the study."

Last time, when Wu's father learned what Wu Liang had done to Zhenzhen, he was so angry that he almost beat Wu Liang to death, but he finally held back.

After all, there is an inseparable family bond between them.

Moreover, Wu's father also knew his son's character and temper very well. He knew that Wu Liang had no ill intentions and had just made a mistake in the heat of the moment.

Therefore, if Zhenzhen can forgive and accept all this, what reason do they, as parents, have to stop it?

After watching Wu Liang and his father enter the study, Wu's mother wiped away her tears and began to question them. She took Wu Zhenzhen's hand and said with concern, "Zhenzhen, why did you come back with that brat? Did something happen? Tell me, if Wu Liang bullies you, we won't let him go!" There was a hint of determination in Wu's mother's words, but also a hint of falsehood. After all, Wu Liang was her biological son; she couldn't really do anything to him.

Wu Zhenzhen naturally understood her mother's thoughts. She knew that although she loved her, she was ultimately more partial to her son. However, she was also grateful for the care and love the Wu family had shown her over the years, so she didn't directly answer her mother's question. Instead, she said softly, "It's okay, Mom. I just have some questions that I can't figure out, and I need your help to explain them."

Mother Wu frowned and asked doubtfully, "What's the matter? Tell me, as long as it's something I can do, I will definitely help you solve it."

Wu Zhenzhen took a deep breath and said slowly: "Mom, there is something that is urgent right now. I can't ask anyone else except you." Her eyes were full of confusion and helplessness, which made Mother Wu feel pity.

About half an hour later, Wu Liang and his father emerged from the study. However, as soon as he emerged, he saw his mother staring at him with an annoyed look on her face. "Mom, what happened?" Wu Liang asked, somewhat bewildered.

"How dare you ask what happened? Zhenzhen is pregnant now, and it's your flesh and blood. Why didn't you tell us earlier? How can the bloodline of our Wu family be lost outside?" Mother Wu asked sternly, with dissatisfaction and worry flashing in her eyes.

Wu Liang sighed self-deprecatingly, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and sadness. He said softly, "That child was not meant to be with me. Mom, please don't mention this sad story anymore, or you'll make Zhenzhen sad."

Wu Zhenzhen's eyes were full of confusion at this moment. She frowned tightly and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"

Wu Liang took a deep breath and said slowly: "Gu Yan told me that you had taken away our child. Zhenzhen, I don't blame you. It's all my fault." It turned out that Gu Yan had lied to Wu Liang on purpose to protect Zhenzhen so that he would not continue to harass Zhenzhen.

When Zhenzhen heard the news, she felt a surge of gratitude. However, things change so fast, and Wu Zhenzhen has now accepted her fate.

"That was me who asked Gu Yan to say that on purpose. I really didn't want this child in the beginning, but it's easier said than done."

Zhenzhen's words were like a flash of lightning that passed through Wu Liang's heart. His eyes lit up instantly, as if the whole world was lit up.

He eagerly came to Zhenzhen's side, his eyes fixed on her belly, as if he wanted to see through her belly to see the little life inside. He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the small bulge, but was afraid that Zhenzhen would be disgusted, so he hesitated in the air and finally withdrew his hand.

"Is what you said true? Our child is still in this world?" Wu Liang's voice trembled a little, and his eyes were full of anticipation and surprise.

Zhenzhen looked at his nervous expression and couldn't help feeling touched.

She nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I have decided to keep this child."

Hearing this, Wu Liang could no longer suppress his emotions. He hugged Zhenzhen tightly, tears streaming down his face. "Thank you, Zhenzhen, thank you."

His voice was full of gratitude and joy. If this child Zhenzhen was willing to stay, then did it mean that Zhenzhen was not that resistant to him?

Seeing Wu Liang, the young boy, so excited, his mother immediately stepped forward and pulled him away: "You are so clumsy, be careful."

Her face was filled with a happy smile and tears were sparkling in her eyes.

She gently stroked Zhenzhen's hair and said softly, "Good child, thank you for keeping this child. If you have any problems in the future, just tell me and don't carry it all by yourself."

Zhenzhen felt the care and love from Wu's mother, and her heart was filled with warmth. She smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I understand."

"I want to give this child a status. Mom, where are Zhenzhen and I's household registration books?" Wu Liang said firmly.

At this moment, the only thought in his mind was to marry Zhenzhen, because only in this way could they truly become a family. However, when he made this suggestion, Zhenzhen's face, which was originally full of happiness, instantly became indifferent and resistant.

"Wu Liang, I only agreed to keep this child, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to accept you. Keeping this child is already my limit!" Zhenzhen's voice was firm and helpless. She knew very well that she had no love for Wu Liang, and this child was more out of gratitude to the Wu family.

Wu Liang was stunned. He didn't expect Zhenzhen to refuse so decisively.

He thought that everything would be fine after having a child, but he ignored the true feelings deep in Zhenzhen's heart. He looked at Zhenzhen with a flash of pain and disappointment in his eyes.

"But... we already have a child, shouldn't we give him a complete family?" Wu Liang tried to persuade Zhenzhen, but he also knew that it might be futile.

Zhenzhen sighed softly, her eyes revealing an unspeakable sadness. "Wu Liang, I understand your feelings, but feelings can't be forced. I don't want to be forced into a loveless marriage just because of the child. Maybe when the child grows up, he'll understand my choice."

Wu Liang was silent for a moment, then finally nodded, expressing his understanding of Zhenzhen's decision. While he still held onto a glimmer of hope, he also understood that forced marriages are not sweet. Perhaps time would change everything. He could only silently wait for that opportunity to come.

At this time, Wu's mother and father also hurried out to smooth things over.

Mother Wu said, "Okay, let's talk about this later. The most important thing right now is Zhenzhen's health. From today on, Zhenzhen will live with me. Aliang, give Zhenzhen some time and don't push her too hard."

Father Wu said, "No matter what your status is, you will always be Zhenzhen's relative, and the child will always be an heir of the Wu family. Just understand this."

Wu Liang really wanted to say it was not enough at this time. What he wanted was never Zhenzhen's intimacy. What he wanted was Wu Zhenzhen as a person. There was only one identity he wanted, and that was to be Zhenzhen's man.

Fortunately, he also knew that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. It was because he was too anxious before that Zhenzhen became resistant to him.

During the following period, Wu Liang would visit Zhenzhen every day, chatting, eating, and watching movies with her, trying his best to meet her needs.

He hoped that in this way, Zhenzhen would feel his sincerity and love. However, Zhenzhen did not forgive him easily, and she still kept a vigilant distance from him.

Despite this, Wu Liang did not give up.

He knew that it would take more effort and time to truly win Zhenzhen's heart, but he believed that as long as he persevered, one day Zhenzhen would accept him again.
