Just as it was time to leave work, Fu Shengyang was called back by a phone call from Fu Jinyun.

The reason given is that on the first day the new bride enters the family, the whole family must eat dinner together.

That young girl has classes in the evening, but she still has time to come home for dinner after her mother finishes her studies. How come you, a grown man, don't have time?

After learning in detail the reasons why the two children suddenly got their marriage certificates, Fu Jinyun was so angry that he slammed his fist on the coffee table several times, strongly expressing his disapproval of his grandson's actions.

"How could you treat such a young girl like this? Threatening her with her mother's life? Is this how I raised you, Fu Shengyang?"

Fu Jinyun was so angry that he was fuming. This child was making unreasonable demands, causing a young girl who was still in school to get pregnant, and even making her sign some ridiculous prenuptial agreement.

"You usually do so many charity projects, how come you're making things so difficult for this young girl over medical expenses of several million?"

"I was tricked into accidentally ingesting it, and even the antidote didn't work. She was working as a designated driver, and in my confused state, I asked her, and she replied, 'Can I give you a million?' This..."

As Fu Shengyang finished speaking, he realized that he had indeed acted dishonestly, and his tone became lower as he felt guilty.

"How can it be all my fault? In the end, it's all because you pushed me too hard, Grandpa."

"Oh ho... If I don't make arrangements for you and rely on you, then the Fu family will have no descendants. How am I supposed to apologize when I go down there!"

“You shout at people with such a strong voice, but that happened a long time ago.”

Fu Jinyun glared at him and threatened, "If you don't have a wedding, I'll lose twenty years of my life."

"The project has recently reached a critical stage, and I really can't spare the time."

“You can’t find the time, you can’t even find the time for your own wedding, how can you say that? It has to be done, it’s at the beginning of next month, I’ll have your aunt take care of it for you, I’ll keep an eye on it.”

Fu Jinyun has a tough stance; her grandson is young, and she is focused on her career.

Even his grandson's major life events had to be decided by him, and he had to force him to agree.

The girl looked quite nice; her face was clean, and her eyes were clear. She seemed to be a kind, sensible, and well-mannered girl.

The noble ladies that grandsons go on blind dates with are indeed not as good as the ones he stumbles upon by chance.

Just as I was thinking this, I glanced over and saw the little girl standing in the distance with her entourage.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

Fu Shengyang, "An Xiaoyue".

Fu Jinyun was very pleased with An Xiaoyue's initiative to give way and beckoned her to come in.

An Xiaoyue then took another step forward.

"Xiaoyue, come and sit down. I was just talking to Shengyang about your wedding. Do you have any requests? When is Mom free to have a meal together?"

An Xiaoyue didn't believe Grandpa Fu's words. His posture just now, as if he was about to hit someone, didn't seem like he was discussing the wedding. But she still answered honestly.

"Grandpa Fu, my mother's condition is quite serious and she cannot leave the hospital. If there is a need to hold a wedding, I only have my friend's family of three here, and there are no other people I need to invite."

"Oh~" Grandpa Fu's tone softened considerably, his eyes filled with pity. "Then let's hold the wedding after your mother is discharged from the hospital, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Shengyang raised an eyebrow. Just moments ago, he had been pressuring him to hold the wedding in eight days, but now he had given in.

"Okay, thank you, Grandpa Fu and Mr. Fu."

"Did you hear that?" Grandpa Fu slapped Fu Shengyang's thigh. "Xiaoyue said thank you. What a kind and understanding girl. Please take good care of her at the hospital."

Fu Shengyang's lips twitched; this was blatant favoritism.

An Xiaoyue was touched; Grandpa Fu treated her like family.

Before Fu Shengyang could speak, she preemptively explained.

“Grandpa Fu, Mr. Fu has done so much for my mother. The hospital has been arranged very well. My mother also asked me to thank Mr. Fu and Grandpa Fu on her behalf.”

Fu Shengyang remained seated, glancing at her with his eyes.

An Xiaoyue lowered her head guiltily. Her mother didn't thank Fu Shengyang, but only told her to try to accept Fu Shengyang's presence.

Fu Jinyun said, "We're all family, no need for thanks. Just let me know if you need anything. Sheng Yang is busy with work, so there may be things he can't attend to."

Fu Jinyun looked at An Xiaoyue with even more satisfaction. Xiaoyue was a polite and well-mannered child. The older she got, the more she realized how precious and rare kindness was.

It's a blessing that Fu Shengyang was able to marry her!

“Okay, Grandpa Fu,” An Xiaoyue replied, but she wasn’t foolish enough to actually think that Mr. Fu was easy to talk to and to go to him to make any requests.

"Xiaoyue, do you have a lot of classes at school? Are you tired?"

An Xiaoyue didn't rush to answer, but instead pondered the true meaning behind Grandpa Fu's question.

It's definitely not about asking how she feels, but rather about considering whether to make her stop teaching for the sake of the child.

It's impossible for her to suspend classes. Even if she was in class when her child was born, she could at most ask for leave and take care of her postpartum period.

“The classes aren’t tiring, and the people Mr. Fu arranged are all very professional. The child will grow up healthy.”

Fu Jinyun listened to her answer, but her expression remained unchanged, and she continued to smile happily.

"The whole family is here, Uncle Fu, let's eat."

An Xiaoyue followed the two and sat down, carefully observing Fu Shengyang and Grandpa Fu's actions.

Each of the three was being taken care of. A maid brought warm water for them to wash their hands, and another maid began serving them food.

Aunt Cui stood beside her, picked up the serving chopsticks, and said, "Young Madam, this is my first time serving you. Are there any dietary restrictions?"

"No."

Actually, she used to be very picky about food because she was spoiled by her three adults. She could eat whatever she liked, and food she didn't like would never appear on the table again.

However, after her mother fell ill, especially in the last six months when her condition deteriorated rapidly, she no longer had the confidence to be picky about food.

Anything is fine as long as it fills my stomach.

Aunt Cui was also nervous; the most difficult thing was that the young mistress had no demands.

He could only carefully pick up the food and observe the young mistress's reaction to judge her likes and dislikes.

From the young master's instructions last night to tidy up the waterside residence and the arrangement of a professional prenatal and postnatal care team this morning, it's clear that the baby in the young mistress's belly is highly valued.

Regardless of the young mistress's birth or background, she has the old master behind her, so the young master would probably have to be a grade lower.

This is what it truly means for a mother to gain status through her son.

At the dining table, the three of them ate their meals separately without exchanging any words.

An Xiaoyue wasn't picky; she ate whatever Cui Ma put on her plate.

She ate until she was about 70% full, and seeing that Grandpa Fu and Fu Shengyang were still eating, she slowed down to avoid the awkwardness of sitting there empty-handed after finishing her meal.

It didn't matter when she was at home; she and Lingxi would finish eating, put down their chopsticks, and go play.

They weren't allowed to touch the dishes or the kitchen, even though Lingxi's father, Teacher Zhong, had washed dishes for most of his life.

Grandpa Fu put down his chopsticks, and a servant brought him a handkerchief. He wiped his mouth and sat quietly.

An Xiaoyue immediately put down her chopsticks; she was already quite full.

"Young Madam, would you like some soup?" asked Aunt Cui.

"No, I'm full."

Grandpa Fu saw through her thoughts and said, "Eat more. Grandpa is old and can't eat much. You eat yours, it's alright."

An Xiaoyue said earnestly, "Grandpa, I'm really full."

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Fu patted Fu Shengyang, who was still eating, and said, "Aren't you full yet? Xiaoyue has to go to class, go pick her up."
