Chapter 119 I can give you a son, she can't.
Li Ma said, "She's very difficult to deal with. She's not satisfied with living on the first floor. It's already a kindness of my husband that he didn't let her live in the semi-basement maid's room."
Butler Xu said, "That's right, she's really good at making trouble. If she gets together with Mr. Feng, we'll be in big trouble."
Aunt Wang clicked her tongue twice and said, "Just by looking at her face, she's not someone to be trifled with. She's not as good as Sister Qiaoyun."
Li Ma nodded, "Yes, Qiaoyun is the best. She's reasonable and doesn't cause trouble."
Sighing, Butler Xu said, "I hope Sister Qiaoyun can outmaneuver her."
Aunt Wang gave him a look, "Don't worry, the master doesn't like this Miss Ruan, so it's hopeless."
......
He Qiaoyun was thirsty after taking a bath and was about to go out for a drink when she overheard their conversation in the upstairs corridor.
From their conversation, we can roughly infer that Feng Jiashu kept Ruan Shu with him.
She immediately lost her appetite and went back to her room.
That night, she couldn't sleep, tossing and turning.
It was uncomfortable to keep my eyes open, so I leaned to the side, picked up my phone, and scrolled through it for a while.
Before I knew it, it was already 12:30 a.m.
She yawned and was about to put down her phone when a message from her daughter popped up: "Mom, why did you buy groceries for me? The fridge was completely full when I opened it; I thought I'd entered the wrong house."
He Qiaoyun replied: 【You just got off work?】
Xu Hemei: [Yeah, I'm exhausted. But next time you don't need to prepare so many ingredients for me; I don't have time to cook.]
He Qiaoyun: [I just grabbed some. Take your time eating. Those eggs were bought by Sister Xia and me. They're from her own free-range chickens, not those high-tech eggs you get outside.]
Xu Hemei: [Okay, it's so late, why aren't you asleep yet? Are you with Uncle Feng?]
He Qiaoyun: [What are you thinking? I got up to use the restroom, I'm going to sleep soon, you should get some rest too.]
Xu Hemei: [Mom, I think Uncle Feng is great. He's rich, good-looking, doesn't gain weight in middle age, has a thick head of hair, and is very polite. You'd better hurry up, I want this stepfather.]
He Qiaoyun couldn't help but chuckle and shake her head, replying: "When it comes to relationships, you have to let nature take its course. Everything is preordained, so don't worry about it."
Xu Hemei: [No, it's 30% fate and 70% human effort. The fact that you two met each other already shows that you've exhausted your destiny; the rest is up to you.]
He Qiaoyun stared at the phrase "Three parts destiny, seven parts human effort," and fell into deep thought. Her previously calmed thoughts surged up again, taking over her mind.
She replied to her daughter: "We'll talk about it later, I'm going to sleep."
After saying that, he put down his phone and lay back down on the bed.
Perhaps she was too tired, she couldn't stay awake any longer and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day.
Because I stayed up all night, I slept until it was bright outside the window. I lazily got up, washed up, and went downstairs.
At this moment, downstairs.
Ruan Shu came out of the kitchen wearing a tight-fitting short skirt, carrying a plate of shrimp dumplings in her hand. She looked very virtuous.
Seeing how attentive she was, Li Ma said helplessly, "Miss Ruan, I can take care of these."
Ruan Shu caught sight of Feng Jiashu and ran towards him with small steps. "Brother Jiashu, you're up! Breakfast is ready. I made it for you myself. Come and have a taste."
Feng Jiashu didn't even glance at her, but instead asked the housekeeper, "Has Qiaoyun come downstairs?"
Butler Xu shook his head. "No."
Ruan Shu subconsciously looked up and saw He Qiaoyun appear at the top of the stairs. She immediately reached out and took Feng Jiashu's arm, saying in a sweet voice, "Brother Jiashu, let's go have breakfast quickly."
Feng Jiashu yanked Ruan Shu's hand away, but before he could even speak, he saw He Qiaoyun walk downstairs.
When Ruan Shu saw He Qiaoyun, she put on a smug smile and adopted the air of a mistress of the house, "He Qiaoyun, you're up. Breakfast is ready, let's eat together."
He Qiaoyun's expression was indifferent, and her tone was also indifferent, "Okay."
As they were talking, Wang Ma led Tian Tian downstairs, and everyone was there.
The four sat down, but the atmosphere was not as harmonious as usual. Apart from Tian Tian, who was focused on eating breakfast, the other three were in a state of unease.
While Ruan Shu gave He Qiaoyun the cold shoulder, she tried to please Feng Jiashu. Feng Jiashu was displeased with Ruan Shu's flattery and wanted to find an opportunity to talk to He Qiaoyun, but he was interrupted by Ruan Shu's persistence.
He Qiaoyun, however, maintained a detached and indifferent attitude, ignoring everyone.
Throughout breakfast, Ruan Shu kept talking in a way that annoyed everyone. He Qiaoyun and Tian Tian, who were focused on eating, finished their meal, but Feng Jiashu was annoyed by Ruan Shu. He put down his chopsticks after only a couple of bites and went to work.
Ruan Shu quickly got up and caught up with Feng Jiashu, saying, "You haven't eaten much yet."
Stepping outside, Feng Jiashu stopped and asked coldly, "Ruan Shu, what will it take for you to leave?"
Ruan Shu looked up at him and said, "I like you. I won't leave. I want to be your wife and have your children."
Feng Jiashu coldly refused, "Impossible, I already have someone I like."
Ruan Shu said, "I know you like He Qiaoyun, but I'm younger than her. I can give you a son, but she can't."
Feng Jiashu looked directly at her and said, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who needs children? If I wanted children, I would have a bunch of them by now. So don't impose your ideas on me."
Finally, he added, "Also, it would be best if you left before my patience runs out."
After saying that, he turned and walked down the steps.
As Ruan Shu watched his departing figure, she bit her lower lip and murmured, "I won't give up."
When Feng Jiashu said he didn't need children, she was even less likely to give up.
Such an outstanding and wealthy man, marrying him would make you the richest woman in Shanghai, respected by everyone, with endless money to spend, and you wouldn't have to go through the pain of ten months of pregnancy. Anyone would want to take a chance.
What if, with enough sincerity, even metal and stone can be moved?
The hardship now is just that—a little bit of suffering—but the future holds many good days...
Upon entering the house, I saw that Li Ma had already cleared away the dishes, and He Qiaoyun and Tian Tian were sitting snuggled together on the living room sofa watching cartoons, a peaceful and idyllic scene.
"I'm not full yet," she said to Li Ma, somewhat angrily.
Li's mother smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I saw you go out and assumed you weren't going to eat, so..."
Ruan Shu sat down in the chair unhappily and ordered, "Go make me another breakfast."
Li Ma nodded helplessly, "Okay, please wait a moment."
"Wait? I want it now!"
".....good."
Hearing the noise, Tian Tian, who was watching cartoons, tilted her head and looked towards the restaurant area, instinctively shrinking back.
He Qiaoyun sensed her emotions and gently comforted her, "Aunt Ruan just has a loud voice, it's alright."
Tian Tian pulled her head back and continued watching the cartoon.
But He Qiaoyun couldn't concentrate on the cartoon; her mind was filled with all sorts of random thoughts.
Feelings are the most changeable thing in the world, so people tend to overthink and hesitate when facing them.
She wondered, Feng Jiashu said he didn't like Ruan Shu, and he could have just kicked her out, so why did he keep her? Could it be that he actually had feelings for Ruan Shu...?
Thinking about it, we're still just friends, so I have no right to object to his decision to keep him...
I'm wondering if I should move out and make room for someone else...
