"Dad, I'm hungry," Beibei said, rubbing her belly after looking around for a moment.
"Your dad bought breakfast. Let's go sit in the pavilion over there," Chen Yan pointed to a nearby pavilion.
"Okay," Beibei nodded.
The family of three made their way to the pavilion. Chen Yan took out the breakfast and placed it on the table.
"Wow, there are rice dumplings and soy milk! Dad, you're the best!" Beibei exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the food.
"Go ahead and eat," Chen Yan said, affectionately patting his daughter's head.
"Mm," Beibei nodded and immediately started munching on a rice dumpling.
"Mom, you should try this; it's really delicious," Beibei urged as she ate.
"Alright," Liu Yuan said, picking up a rice dumpling, peeling it open, and taking a bite.
"How is it? Is it good?" Beibei looked at her mother with anticipation.
"It's okay," Liu Yuan replied nonchalantly.
"Mom, what do you mean 'okay'? It's so good, and you say it's just okay?" Beibei pouted at her mother in dissatisfaction.
"I'm just a bit picky with flavors," Liu Yuan casually offered an excuse.
"Mom, that means you have no taste," Beibei retorted, wrinkling her nose.
Liu Yuan was left speechless. She couldn't believe her daughter was criticizing her.
Chen Yan listened to the exchange between the two and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Dad, what are you laughing at?" Beibei asked, looking puzzled at her father.
"I think your mom has a point; this rice dumpling is indeed average," Chen Yan said while trying to suppress his laughter.
"Dad!" Beibei huffed in annoyance.
Seeing his daughter upset, Chen Yan immediately fell silent.
After finishing breakfast, the family played on the mountain for a while before heading down.
Once they arrived at the ancient town, Beibei couldn't resist wanting to play in the flower fields.
Liu Yuan couldn't refuse her and agreed to accompany her to play.
"Mom, remember not to pick any flowers," Beibei reminded as she gazed at the vast array of blossoms around them.
"I know," Liu Yuan nodded.
"Then I'm going to play now!" Beibei exclaimed and dashed off as soon as she received her mother's confirmation.
Liu Yuan and Chen Yan sat in the pavilion, admiring the beautiful scenery in the distance.
"Mommy, they are bullying me," suddenly Beibei ran over, feeling wronged, and threw herself into her mother's arms.
"What happened?" Liu Yuan asked, holding her daughter with concern.
"They were picking flowers. I told them not to, but they didn't listen and even scolded me," Beibei said, tears streaming down her face as she spoke.
"Don't cry, don't cry." Seeing her daughter in tears broke Liu Yuan's heart, and she quickly comforted her.
"Mommy, they are too much," Beibei said angrily.
"Don't be upset; soon uncles and aunties will come to teach them a lesson," Liu Yuan reassured her.
"Really?" Beibei was skeptical.
"Yes, when have I ever lied to you?" Liu Yuan wiped away her daughter's tears.
"Then I believe you, Mommy." Beibei sniffled and stopped crying.
"Alright, go play now." Liu Yuan patted her daughter's head.
"Okay." Beibei nodded and ran off to play again.
After a while, some staff members indeed came over and reprimanded the children who had been picking flowers. Seeing those kids being scolded brought some balance back to Beibei's heart.
"Wendong, why are you trying to snatch it from me?" Beibei glared at the boy in front of her, fuming with anger.
"I just did; what about it?" the boy replied arrogantly.
"I saw it first!" Beibei was furious.
"But I want it; what are you going to do about it?" The boy provocatively stared at Beibei.
"You can't do this!" Beibei's face turned red with anger.
"I can do whatever I want; what are you going to do about it?" The boy pushed Beibei slightly as he spoke.
"Beibei!" Lu Yuze immediately stepped forward to protect her upon seeing what was happening.
"Lu Yuze, you're actually helping her?" The boy became even angrier when he saw Lu Yuze supporting Beibei.
"If I don't help her, am I supposed to help you?" Lu Yuze retorted sharply.
"Do you believe I’ll beat you up too?" the boy threatened.
"Go ahead and try," Lu Yuze said without a hint of fear.
"You think I'm scared?" The boy charged at Lu Yuze.
Lu Yuze nimbly dodged and then counterattacked, pinning the boy to the ground.
"Let me go!" the boy struggled against him.
"Let go of you, so you can hit me?" Lu Yuze thought not to fall for that.
"Lu Yuze, just wait!" the little boy threatened fiercely.
"I'll be waiting," Lu Yuze replied nonchalantly.
At that moment, the teacher approached.
"Fu Wendong, you've caused trouble again." The teacher immediately took the little boy away upon seeing the situation.
"Woo woo woo, Lu Yuze, thank you for what you did just now," Beibei said gratefully.
"You're welcome," Lu Yuze replied, feeling a bit shy.
"Let's go play some more," Beibei suggested.
"Okay," Lu Yuze nodded.
Thus, the two little ones ran off to play again.
"Dad, just now Wendong got into a fight with a friend," Chen Yan's daughter, Chen Xiaobei, ran over to report to her father.
"I know," Chen Yan nodded.
"Aren't you going to teach Wendong a lesson?" Chen Xiaobei looked at her father in confusion.
"No need; someone will take care of that," Chen Yan said mysteriously.
"Who?" Chen Xiaobei asked curiously.
"It's a secret," Chen Yan smiled.
Chen Xiaobei: ...
Dad is always so mysterious.
In the evening, the family of three went to a restaurant for dinner.
As soon as they sat down, they ran into an acquaintance.
"Miss Liu, long time no see," Fu Shaokang said with a smile as he looked at Liu Yuan.
"Mr. Fu, long time no see," Liu Yuan said, surprised to see Fu Shaokang here.
"Miss Liu, we're here for dinner. If you don't mind, shall we sit together?" Fu Shaokang proposed.
"I don't mind," Liu Yuan shook her head.
"Then I'll sit here," Fu Shaokang said as he took a seat.
Liu Yuan and Chen Yan exchanged glances and had no choice but to sit down.
"Miss Liu, I heard that you and Mr. Chen are already married," Fu Shaokang suddenly said.
"Yes," Liu Yuan nodded.
"Congratulations, congratulations," Fu Shaokang said sincerely.
"Thank you," Liu Yuan replied with a slight smile.
"Dad, I want to eat that," Fu Wendong pointed at the menu and said.
"Okay, I'll order it for you," Fu Shaokang said, affectionately ruffling his son's hair.
"Mr. Fu, I remember you used to be very busy. How come you have time to take your son out to play now?" Chen Yan suddenly asked.
"Ah, I was too busy before and neglected my son. Now I want to make it up to him," Fu Shaokang sighed.
"Is that so?" Chen Yan raised an eyebrow.
"Yes," Fu Shaokang nodded.
"Mr. Fu, your son is quite adorable," Liu Yuan said, noticing the atmosphere had become a bit awkward and quickly tried to lighten it.
"Adorable? He's quite mischievous," Fu Shaokang replied helplessly.
"He's just a little kid; it's normal," Liu Yuan laughed.
"Ah, I've let him down too much. He probably won't forgive me," Fu Shaokang looked at his son with a face full of regret.
"He will if you spend more time with him; he'll understand," Liu Yuan encouraged.
"I hope so," Fu Shaokang said with a bitter smile.
After dinner, Fu Shaokang left with his son.
"I think this Fu Shaokang is not simple," Chen Yan suddenly said.
"What? Do you suspect his relationship with Fu Wendong?" Liu Yuan raised an eyebrow.
"Yes," Chen Yan nodded.
"I think you're overthinking it," Liu Yuan disagreed.
"I hope I'm just overthinking it," Chen Yan sighed.
"Alright, stop thinking about it. Let's go home," Liu Yuan took her husband's hand and walked outside.
When they got home, Beibei was already asleep.
Liu Yuan carried her daughter into the bedroom, tucked her in, and then returned to the living room.
"I still think that Fu Shaokang is not simple," Chen Yan said again while sitting on the sofa.
"You’re at it again," Liu Yuan said somewhat helplessly.
"I'm serious," Chen Yan insisted earnestly.
"Then what do you think he’s trying to do?" Liu Yuan countered.
"I don't know," Chen Yan shook his head.
"So, stop overthinking," Liu Yuan comforted.
"Alright," Chen Yan sighed.
"I'm going to take a shower," Liu Yuan said as she stood up and walked toward the bathroom.
After finishing her shower, Liu Yuan sat at the vanity, drying her hair. Chen Yan emerged from his shower, walked up behind her, took the towel from her hand, and helped her dry her hair.
"Thank you," Liu Yuan said with a smile.
"Don't be so polite with me," Chen Yan replied affectionately.
"I think that Fu Shaokang is not simple," Chen Yan began to dwell on the issue again.
"Don't think about it too much," Liu Yuan said helplessly.
"Okay," Chen Yan sighed.
The next day, after dropping their daughter off at school, Liu Yuan received a call from her mother.
"Mom, what's up?" Liu Yuan answered the phone.
"Yuan Yuan, your father is sick," Liu Xiaomin's mother said.
"What kind of illness?" Liu Yuan frowned.
"Gastritis," Liu Xiaomin's mother replied.
"Is it serious?" Liu Yuan asked.
"It's quite serious. Do you want to come back and see him?" Liu Xiaomin's mother asked tentatively.
"I'll think about it," Liu Yuan hesitated for a moment.
"Please let me know your decision soon," Liu Xiaomin's mother said before hanging up the phone.
Liu Yuan held the phone, lost in thought. Although Liu Wenguang had not treated her well, he had given her some money to help her and Beibei get by. Therefore, she felt she had to go back and see him. After considering it for a moment, Liu Yuan decided to return.
