No divorce! Mr. Lu knelt down and coaxed him every night.

Qiao Jinfan and Chu Yu almost became husband and wife.

He didn't want Chen An'an to think too much, so he took his phone and walked out of the ward before answering the call. As soon as the phone was connected, Chu Yu's choked voice came from the other end: "Qiao Jinfan, when will you come back? I understand that you left me and our wedding to see the children, but now that you are done, shouldn't you come back to continue our wedding?"

In fact, there will be no more weddings.

But Qiao Jinfan did not provoke Chu Yu.

He whispered to comfort her that he would be back in a few days. Chu Yu finally couldn't help crying: "Qiao Jinfan, I am your future wife! Do you want to stay with her forever because of that child? Do you know how the media in City B wrote about you the night you were away? And Chen Anan... She is the third party in our relationship."

"she is not."

Qiao Jinfan's tone was firm and decisive, which shocked and saddened Chu Yu. She was not stupid, she understood what Qiao Jinfan meant.

He began to care about Chen Anan, or rather, he had always cared about her, but he was too proud to admit it.

A child changed their fate, but what should Chu Yu do?

It's quiet at night.

Qiao Jinfan stood in the corridor, the night wind brushing his black hair, calming his mind a little. He wondered why he didn't go back to City B? There were so many things he had to deal with in City B... He was afraid that something would happen to Chen Anan, and that she would have postpartum hemorrhage like Qiao Huan, so he had to stay in City C.

On the other side of the phone, Chu Yu was still crying.

She asked directly: "Qiao Jinfan, are we still going to have a wedding?"

Qiao Jinfan did not lie to her. His voice was hoarse in the dark night: "Chu Yu, I will give you an explanation."

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Yu abruptly ended the call.

She didn't dare to listen any further.

She didn't want to believe that he hadn't fallen in love with her in the past six months. If she had, she would have hesitated, but he didn't... The explanation he offered was probably just financial compensation.

What does Chu Yu want money for?

……

There was a beeping sound from the phone.

Qiao Jinfan looked at his phone silently for a while, then put it in his trouser pocket and walked back into the VIP ward. Most of the lights in the ward were turned off, and the light was soft and dim.

Chen Anan had already fed the child, and the little guy stayed beside his mother, sleeping soundly in her arms.

This scene is so gentle!

Qiao Jinfan slowly closed the door of the ward, and his voice was incredibly gentle, like an ordinary husband talking to his wife: "Is the child asleep?"

Chen Anan didn't know how to answer. No matter how she answered, it would seem that their relationship was too close.

She leaned on the pillow and thought for a moment, then said to Qiao Jinfan, "I know I can't win against the Qiao family, so I won't stop you from seeing the child. When you want to see the child, just tell me in advance and you can come over, but Qiao Jinfan, I won't reconcile with you just for a child."

Qiao Jinfan stood at the door and didn't come over, but his voice was still gentle: "Is it because you don't like it?"

"like?"

Chen Anan smiled softly: "Qiao Jinfan, I admit that I liked you, but that was a long time ago. When we were husband and wife, we didn't cherish each other. Now we have been separated for so long, and you already have someone to marry. It's ridiculous for you to ask me if I like you... You haven't forgotten that you sent me an invitation half a month ago, right? Qiao Jinfan, if this child is really Qi Jing's, will you still stay here and be reluctant to leave?"

No matter what she said, she just refused to accept him and refused to change her mind.

Qiao Jinfan walked towards the bed. He stood in front of the bed and looked down at Chen Anan. He was facing away from the light so Chen Anan couldn't see his expression, but she felt that his eyes were deep and unfathomable.

After a while, he half-knelt down and gently placed his palm on the baby and patted him. His tone was a little gentler than before: "Don't you want to give the child a complete family? Chen Anan...have you never thought about it at all?"

Chen Anan's eyes were moist.

She is a woman after all. Which woman wants her child to grow up in a single-parent family? But she has not forgotten what Qiao Jinfan said to her on a snowy day before last year -

[Don't worry, Ms. Chen. If I get married someday, I will send you the first invitation.]

Thinking of that, Chen Anan closed her eyes gently.

"I didn't think about it."

Qiao Jinfan wanted to say more, but out of consideration for her frail body, he gently held her hand and whispered, "Let's not talk about this for now. You rest first... I'll take care of the child."

Chen Anan didn't have the energy to chase him away.

Besides, she had a difficult delivery and had indeed exhausted all her energy. She closed her eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.

After she fell asleep, Qiao Jinfan stayed by her side, looking at the tender baby and then at Chen Anan. After ten months of pregnancy, her body was not plump, and her face was pointed, and she looked thinner than when she saw her on the snowy day.

Qiao Jinfan stroked her face gently with his fingers. When he touched her skin, he realized how attached he was to her. It turned out that during the separation for more than half a year, he had thought that she was just suppressing herself. It turned out that he still had the feeling of heartbeat and physical throbbing.

Qiao Jinfan is a mature man, so he naturally understands what this means!

He likes Chen Anan!

The light was dim, and his eyes became softer. His fingers stroked her brows, slid to her straight nose, and then to her perfectly shaped but pale lips. He caressed his ex-wife's face inch by inch, feeling not only attachment but also heartache.

After a long time, Qiao Jinfan bent down and gently hugged Chen Anan.

……

The next day, Chen Anan regained some strength.

Qiao Shiyan and his wife came early in the morning. They took a house opposite the hospital to make it convenient for stewing soup, so when Qiao Shiyan came, he brought ginseng and old hen soup in his hand, especially for Chen Anan to nourish her.

Chen Anan felt a little uncomfortable.

Although she and Qiao Jinfan had been husband and wife, and had called Qiao Shiyan and his wife mom and dad, they were no longer a family. How could she feel at ease enjoying other people's care? She looked at Chen Jiuyue.

With just one look, Chen Jiuyue understood immediately.

When Chen Anan was drinking the old hen soup, Chen Jiuyue said very tactfully that this was inappropriate. After all, the Qiao family's future in-laws were the Chu family. It was really inappropriate for Qiao Shiyan and his wife to stay in City C to take care of their former daughter-in-law after she had given birth.

Chen Jiuyue coughed lightly: "Qiao Group's stocks have fallen a lot since early in the morning."

Qiao Shiyan waved his hand and said, "Let it fall! How can the stock market be as important as my eldest granddaughter?"

Meng Yan nudged his arm and said: Although it is the truth, you can't say it so bluntly.

The husband and wife were of one mind, and Qiao Shiyan immediately understood what his wife meant.

He poured another bowl of chicken soup for Chen Anan and said softly, "There are a lot of things to deal with in City B. Jinfan's mother and I will go back first. Jinfan will take care of City C. He can't shirk this matter. He is the father of the child... If he doesn't take care of it, who will?"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Jiuyue understood——

The Qiao family no longer cares about their dignity.

In short, they wanted to keep Qiao Jinfan and reconcile her with her sister. When An An refused, they kept pestering her... Chen Jiuyue sneered, they were truly father and son!

Chen Jiuyue wanted to say something harsh, but swallowed it back. She looked at Qiao Jinfan's gentle eyes and couldn't help wondering, what if this was true, what if her sister could find love, what if her little Youyou could have a happy childhood?

Qiao Jinfan also expressed his opinion at the right time: "An An, I will go back to City B when you are discharged from the hospital."

What else can Chen Jiuyue say?

……

In the afternoon, Qiao Shiyan and his wife left with the others.

Before leaving, little Chen Youyou's bed was piled with gold, silver, jewelry, and even property deeds of several villas. They were all the love and protection given by her grandparents. The little one had been in Rome since she was born.

On the third day, Chen Jiuyue also returned to City B.

Qiao Jinfan, the new father, took on everything. Fortunately, he had his aunt to take care of him, so he wasn't too busy...

Late at night, heavy rain fell in City C.

The VIP ward used the best soundproof glass, so it was quite quiet. Qiao Jinfan sat on the sofa, flipping through a parenting manual in one hand, and next to him was Chen Youyou's crib, where her father was rocking her to sleep.

Chen Anan strongly disagreed: "If you keep shaking her like this, she won't want to sleep unless you coax her."

"Every night... I just coax her."

After he finished speaking, Qiao Jinfan raised his eyes and looked straight at Chen Anan.
