”Yi'er went out. He's not here right now.” Ruan Qingdie arranged her cape with her hands. Although she was no longer young, she had been well-maintained and looked very beautiful. She said very straightforwardly, ”Let's talk.”

Chu Mengyao's heart immediately leaped into her throat, ”Aunt?”

”Are you pregnant?” Ruan Qingdie said without any expression.

Chu Mengyao felt very awkward. She didn't know how to reply to Ruan Qingdie's direct question. After a moment of silence, she nodded.

This seemed to be within Ruan Qingdie's expectations. She only nodded and said very indifferently, ”No wonder Fu Yi is so anxious to get married.” Then, she continued, ”I won't hide this from you either, I used to think that Alice was more suited to be my daughter-in-law. Regarding the matter of marriage, I will fully respect Yi'er's opinion. He wants to marry you as her wife. In principle, I have no objections. ”

Hearing Ruan Qingdie's words, Chu Mengyao heaved a sigh of relief.

”But Yi'er's grandfather was very opposed to you two being together, let alone getting married. And Yi'er even offended the Zhou Family for your sake, ”Ruan Qingdie said in a very objective manner,” Because of all these, his grandfather beat him up using his walking stick. Thinking about Elder Ruan's vicious crutches, Ruan Qingdie still felt a lot of pity for her son.

Chu Mengyao frowned, she thought about the bruises on Fu Yi's body that she saw. Elder Ruan's crutch was thick and heavy, she had seen it before, if it hit her, it would definitely hurt like hell.

”I told you all this for no other reason. I only said that if Yi'er's grandfather doesn't treat you well in the future, you have to be more patient and not have any conflicts with his grandfather. Otherwise, the one stuck in the middle is Yi'er. ” She added nonchalantly, ”But I don't think this will happen often. We should only be able to see each other once every year for the Chinese New Year.”

”Yes, Auntie.” Chu Mengyao lowered her eyes. She had never thought that Fu Yi would be willing to do so many things for her. She secretly decided that even if her grandfather was making things difficult for her, she wouldn't lose her temper and make it difficult for Fu Yi.

Ruan Qingdie sighed and stood up from the sofa, ”Take care of your health, after you've decided on the wedding, ask Yi'er to inform me.”

Then, she left.

Not long after Ruan Qingdie left, Fu Yi walked in with a large box.

Thinking about how Ruan Qingdie said that she was beaten up by the Elder Ruan using her walking stick, her heart ached, and she immediately went to hug him.

”You going to throw yourself into my arms?” Fu Yi thought that she was acting coquettishly towards him and patted her shoulder.

”I just wanted to hug you.” She did not say it out loud, not wanting Fu Yi to feel awkward, ”I love you.”

Hearing Chu Mengyao's confession, he was very excited in her heart, but he did not admit it.

She was showing her true feelings, but he was making fun of himself. This made Chu Mengyao a little embarrassed.

”Mom left?” Fu Yi asked.

”She left. She just asked me if I was pregnant. I told her.” Chu Mengyao's face was slightly red.

Seeing her embarrassed look, Fu Yi smiled, and passed the box to her, ”This box was given to you by mother.” When Ruan Qingdie came earlier, she had already asked him, and he admitted it straightforwardly. So she gave him an address and told him to pick it up.

”What is this?” Chu Mengyao was a little curious.

”Open it and take a look.” Fu Yi said.

Inside the box were all kinds of health care products used by pregnant women, and they were very rich.

Thinking about Ruan Qingdie's attitude just now, and seeing the things in the box, Chu Mengyao was a little unable to understand what she meant. However, she was certain that Ruan Qingdie had agreed to the marriage between the two of them.

”My mom is a business type of woman. She has a strong personality and she speaks very straightforwardly. She doesn't say anything tactful. But don't feel pressured, she's a very reasonable old lady! ” Fu Yi comforted her.

What he said was right, Ruan Qingdie was indeed a person who spoke straightforwardly, but her attitude was still within her scope of acceptance. ”Fu Yi, can you talk about your father with me?” Suddenly, Chu Mengyao asked, ”I have never heard you mention your father before.”

”My dad is no longer here.”

”I'm sorry.” Chu Mengyao felt that she had been too abrupt, and brought up this topic.

”It's okay, little fool.” Fu Yi tapped her nose, smiled, and said self-deprecatingly, ”He has already been dead for twenty years, so we have only lived for a short amount of time. I can't even remember his face anymore.”

His father had already passed away when he was very young, and the Fu Family had no trace of his father's existence. Not even a single photo had been passed down. Ruan Qingdie would never mention his father in front of him, but even though Elder Ruan would mention him, it was with hatred.

Since he said that, Chu Mengyao nodded in agreement, ”When my parents died, I was too young to remember what happened back then. My impression of them, too, is in the photos. ” She didn't feel sad when she mentioned her parents.
