At that point, it suddenly made sense why Qi Chenglin always liked to tease her.

So before releasing him, Ruan Danchen kissed him on the other cheek. The child’s face flushed even more, to the point that it looked like it was glowing.

He bashfully twisted his undefined hips in Qi Chenglin’s embrace, extremely embarrassed, and softly called, “Aunty Ruan.”

Ruan Danchen smiled widely, extremely happy, and was about to withdraw, but was stopped by Qi Chenglin’s hand.

Looking up, she saw him half smiling at her, arching his eyebrows. That pair of sexy, attractive lips pouted, not too obvious, but Ruan Danchen could easily make it out.

However, she could not bear to look at Q Chenglin’s face with his lips pouting that way. That air of elegance was definitely unsuited for him to be acting cute. While that may be so, Ruan Danchen could not help but think that he was rather adorable this way.

Qi Chenglin gently pouted once more, Ruan Danchen knew, because she kissed the boy, now the man wanted her to kiss him of his own accord.

Ruan Danchen blushed as well, this was karma! She had just teased the child, and now she was being teased.

Ruan Danchen ignored him, blushing as she tried to leave, but Qi Chenglin wouldn’t let her.

“Hurry up” Qi Chenglin whispered into her ear softly, his voice raspy, there was an indescribable sultriness in it.

“Aunty Ruan, why don’t you just kiss daddy, he’s really too much, acting like a child.” Qi Youxuan spoke up while the both of them were caught up in the moment.

His crisp voice was light and beautiful, compared to the raspy, sultry whispering of Qi Chenglin, there was a massive difference.

Qi Chenglin was speechless.

Ruan Danchen gave a look at Qi Chenglin that said, “embarrassed yourself yet?” Qi Chengling was unable to take it, as the both of them stood there looking at each other, unable to take into account a child’s feelings.

“Since Youxuan’s already spoken up, you may as well hurry it up.” QI Chenglin said bluntly, his voice not even intentionally lowered now, his black eyes filled with anticipation, his attractive lips curving upwards slightly, waiting for her.

Ruan Danchen blushed, delicate and charming, as she glanced at him shyly.

If she said refused, Qi Chenglin would just keep this up. Ruan Danchen looked at him, how could such an elegant man be so childish at times, to the point that he could be worse than Qi Youxuan?

But there were so many people around, and Ruan Danchen was not thick skinned. After hesitating for quite a while, she quickly stepped forwards, tiptoed and planted a kiss on Qi Chenglin’s lips.

Qi Chenglin was finally satisfied, and his attractive lips curled in a smile as he held her hand.

While they were there being lovebirds, Qi Chengzhi had already brought Song Yu outside. While Qi Chengzhi was also very affectionate in public, he never complained when he acted that way, only doing so when other people were displaying affection publicly.

There were quite a few passerbys around,, and they couldn’t help but look as they walked past them.

This family of three was too eye-catching, the man was handsome and elegant, and was extremely attractive, while the boy was a little rotund, he was at the age where he was adorable, and being a little bit plump was just right for his age, making him extremely cute, melting the hearts of everyone around him.

Those ladies who were single or yet to be married could not help but feel a bit envious of Ruan Danchen. They did not know where her luck came from, to have such a blissful life, with a handsome husband and an adorable son.

Simply based on Ruan Danchen’s husband’s looks alone, they would not care if he were rich or poor, to just be able to look at his face everyday would be an exceptional pleasure that would bring them joy.

However, looking at the way Qi Chenglin carried himself, and the way he dressed, even though one couldn’t make out the brand of the clothes, they could tell that it wasn’t cheap, and their envy grew, to the point that one might say they were jealous of Ruan Danchen.

They couldn’t help but think, Ruan Danchen wasn’t an exceptional beauty, how could she have such a good life!

Naturally, Ruan Danchen could not know what the people around her were thinking, but to just feel their gazes upon her was too much to handle, and she couldn’t bear to stay there any longer, and she was eager to leave.

Before she could think about turning and leaving with Qi Chenglin, she saw Liu Ronghua walking in from the entrance.

Ruan Danchen hesitated, and unconsciously held Qi Chenglin’s hand tightly. Her flushed face had turned pale, and she was so nervous she couldn’t speak.

Qi Chenglin held on Ruan Danchen’s hand firmly, encouraging her. He looked at Liu Ronghua and smiled.

Liu Ronghua’s gaze switched constantly between Qi Chenglin and Ruan Danchen, and in between she looked at Qi Youxuan quite a few times as well.

Qi Youxuan kept feeling that this woman’s gaze was very hostile, and he felt very uncomfortable because of it, causing him to unconsciously hold Qi Chenglin’s neck tightly, turning away and not looking at Liu Ronghua.

Liu Ronghua even now had a feeling of unease, the child in Qi Chenglin’s arms was her grandson. Her grandson was the grandson of the Qi Family.

She opened her mouth, but shut it under Qi Chenglin’s look of warning.

Instead, she turned to look at Ruan Danchen, and said forlornly, “Danchen.”

She had originally thought that Qi Chenglin and Ruan Danchen weren’t all that serious, Shen Zhijing had said so, but that was because of her dislike for Ruan Danchen, and so she had exaggerated the truth.

She had always thought that based on who Ruan Danchen and Qi Chenglin were, even if the Qi Family were not concerned with familial backgrounds, Qi Chenglin would not be too serious with Ruan Danchen.

Ruan Danchen wasn’t Song Yu, back in the day the Song family was formidable, and even if Song Yu’s family was in dire straits, but she still held a lot of value, unlike Ruan Danchen.

Even if she-

Liu Ronghua stopped herself. At the end of the day she simply did not imagine Qi Chenglin would be so serious towards Ruan Danchen, that he would act up and ask for a kiss from her like that in public.

She had thought she had misidentified someone else earlier, how could the man who had acted like that earlier be the usually stoic and taciturn Qi Chenglin?

Could he be that uncaring of his image, could he really like Ruan Danchen that much?

Liu Ronghua’s thoughts kept turning in her head, completely different from her original viewpoint.

When she had originally consented to the Shen family coming over, she was not all too sincere about it, she always thought that Ruan Danchen would never wed Qi Chenglin, so if she invited Ruan Danchen it wouldn’t matter. Even if Ruan Danchen were to refuse, in the future Qi Chenglin would break up with her, so the point would be moot.

She just did not want to displease Shen Jialiang and Shen Zhijing, so she came to oblige them.

However, Liu Ronghua was seriously reconsidering her position, as she looked down from Ruan Danchen’s face, to see Ruan Danchen holding Qi Chenglin’s hand.

“Danchen, you guys are now together?” Liu Ronghua’s face changed to one of surprise, as though she had coincidentally met them, and that she had just known that they were an item, “previously when I saw you at the mall, and at the company, it was actually him, wasn’t it? You-”

Qi Chenglin’s eyes hardened, and he handed over Qi Youxuan to Ruan Danchen to carry. Ruan Danchen could feel Qi Youxuan’s anxiety, and she held him tight, standing behind Qi Chenglin, blocking him from Liu Ronghua’s view.

Qi Chenglin didn’t let Liu Ronghua finish her sentence, stepping forward to block Liu Ronghua, speaking coldly, “I don’t care if you’re here today by coincidence, or by design, but don’t ever show your face in front of Danchen and my son again. Not just you, but the entire Shen Family. Do you think I don’t know what you all are playing at?”

“I-” Liu Ronghua’s lips trembled, she thought that she was still Qi Chenglin’s future mother in law, how could he be so rude to her.

He should still keep Ruan Danchen’s face in mind, and treat her better than this!

“I’m Danchen’s mother, you can’t possibly mean that I can’t see her for the rest of my life?” Liu Ronghua said forlornly, twisting her head to look for Ruan Danchen behind Qi Chenglin.

Ruan Danchen just held onto Qi Youxuan tightly, her face ghostly.

“If you just wanted to see your daughter, do you think I would stop you?” Qi Chenglin’s black eyes were extremely cold, and Liu Ronghua trembled slightly under his gaze, “you can try, I don’t mind doing to the Shen family now what I didn’t do 7 years ago.”

Liu Ronghua shuddered, and looked over Qi Chenglin to look at Ruan Danchen, speaking to her, “Danchen, I just want to see you. Does this mean when we see each other on the street, we can’t even talk anymore? Since when was I, as your mother, not allowed even care about you?”

Ruan Danchen’s face was white, her lips pursed tightly, covering Qi Youxuan, and spoke lowly, “All the care you’ve shown me, I’ve accepted from others for the past 19 years.”

Liu Ronghua opened her mouth to try and explain, but Qi Chenglin immediately took Ruan Danchen’s hand and led her away.

Liu Ronghua turned to pursue after Qi Chenglin and Ruan Danchen. Qi Youxuan had turned away to face the back, and now he turned once more to face the front, determined not to look at her.

Liu Ronghua looked distraught, as she heard from behind her, “let’s go, don’t keep Youxuan waiting, he must think that there’s nothing interesting here, and I think the Song girl must be feeling rather tired.”

Liu Ronghua turned once more to look, Xia Wenna and Guan Liya were holding Grandmother Qi in between them, leaving Qi Zhongliang and Qi Zhongxun on each side of Grandfather Qi, walking behind them.

Xia Wenna did not even greet Liu Ronghua when she saw her.

Even though she wasn’t on the same level as the Shen family, but even in this circle, this was clear. When chatting with their friends at the foundation, they would hear of Liu Ronghua. They would know she stays with the Shen family, but has no personal clout, the rich ladies were also gossips, and would know of her past life and relationships, and it was obvious that she had sold her dignity to live with the Shen family as a mistress for money.

The way they acted towards her, could be thought of as disdain.

Grandmother Qi would not know who Liu Ronghua was, and so she did not react when seeing her. While Xia Wenna and Guan Liya’s attitude was cold, Liu Ronghua naturally could not pretend that she did not know them, and it would be a good chance to see if the Qi Family really did know who Ruan Danchen was.

“Grandfather Qi, Grandmother Qi.” Liu Ronghua greeted as the ladies got closer, before turning to call out to Qi Zhongliang and the others.

Grandmother Qi did not know her, but nodded and greeted her politely, while Xia Wenna and Guan Liya smiled and nodded coldly, politeness the last thing on their minds.

“Mrs. Liu.” Xia Wenna said.

Liu Ronghua looked pained, and she couldn’t quite lift her head, she really wanted to be called “Madam Shen.”

Grandfather Qi and the other men would have even less reason to know her. They were not gossips, and they never had any interactions with the Shen family, while Liu Ronghua’s status would never permit her to meet people of their level.

After they had made some distance, did Grandmother Qi asked softly, “who was that just now?”

“Do you remember Shen Zhijing from yesterday?” Guan Liya asked.

Grandmother Qi nodded, unable to forget even if she wanted to, “yes.”

“Shen Zhijing’s father has an au pair, and that was her.” Guan Liya was too polite to directly say ‘lover’, and had spoken very diplomatically.

“She’s been living with the Shen Family for many years now, but she hasn’t gotten anywhere, her position is rather awkward.” Guan Liya said.

“Oh, why bother” Grandma Qi tutted, as she shook her head.

…

Ruan Danchen carried Qi Youxuan into the car, and took her seat.

“Aunty Ruan, that lady just now was your mom?” Qi Youxuan asked softly, as he had overheard the conversation just now and figured it out.

“Erm.” Ruan Danchen grunted softly in reply.

“You and daddy both don’t like her, do you? Did she treat you badly?” Qi Youxuan asked, his eyes so large you could make out the white and black, looking at Ruan Danchen innocently.

Even though he never had a mother since he was small, everyone at home treated him well, so the child had never experienced anything like Liu Ronghua.

But looking at Liu Ronghua just now, it was rather pitiful.

Ruan Danchen did not know how to explain it to the child, so she just played with his hair. She thought that Qi Youxuan wasn’t like other children, and she couldn’t put wool over her eyes like one could with other children.

Ruan Danchen also thought back, all this while everyone in the Qi Family, including Qi Chenglin, had spoken to Qi Youxuan as a peer, and treated him like an adult, and not as a child.

The way she looked at it, this was also a form of respect for Qi Youxuan.

She thought for a while, then spoke: “the lady just now, she is my mother. How do I say this, even though she was my mother, she never really cared for me. I never had a daddy, but my mom never really cared for me too.”

Ruan Danchen looked at him lovingly, smiling while she ruffled his hair more, “it’s really no big deal, at least I’ve got a mom, I tell myself, it’s good enough to be able to call someone mom. Until 7 years ago, she did something that was too far, so much so that you couldn’t imagine a mother could do, and after that I started to avoid her.”

Qi Youxuan blinked, but didn’t ask Ruan Danchen what Liu Romghua did, if she could, Aunty Ruan would tell him.

But to be able to force Aunty Ruan to act this way, she must have done a lot.

The car was not yet started, they were waiting for Grandmother Qi to come out, so Qi Youxuan got up and knelt, he had grown and could no longer stand on the seat.

Qi Youxuan didn’t speak, and suddenly kissed Ruan Danchen on the cheek, “Aunty Ruan, in the future daddy and I will take care of you.”

The little boy spoke confidently, his round, adorable face was serious.

He thought about himself, and how even though he didn’t have a mother, he still had a lot of family members, who all loved him, and in that way he was far luckier than Aunty Ruan.

Ruan Danchen smiled, her heart melted by this child, and she couldn’t help but hug him, and kiss him in return, “thank you.”

Qi Youxuan was so pleased he grinned.

…

Liu Ronghua returned the Shen manor, and was surprised to see Shen Jialiang and Shen Zhijing were still at home, they had never really liked staying home before, and she then understood, they were waiting for her to see how she fared.

Liu Ronghua’s heart sunk, as she changed her shoes at the landing, and heard Shen Jialiang asked impatiently, “how’d it go?”

Liu Ronghua sighed, “how else would it go? It’s as I thought, Danchen will never happily accept, the truth is she hates me to death now.”

Shen Jialiang’s face sank, and he wasn’t too happy.

“But today wasn’t an entire loss,” Liu Ronghua took a seat opposite him, and let Aunt Li serve her a glass of lemon water, which she took a sip of before she continued, “today the Qi family went to the temple to burn incense, I also saw Qi Chenglin and the boy together with Ruan Danchen, the three of them looked very loving, and Qi Chenglin likes her a lot. And from the way the elders in the Qi Family acted, they don’t know the relationship between me and Ruan Danchen, so from that angle, it might work.”

Shen Jialiang nodded, his face lighting up, his tone warming up as well, “at the end of the day, you did your best. As long as it works, you will have done a lot for the Shen Family. Ronghua, I will definitely not shortchange you.”
