Chapter 73: Guess it

Chapter 73

"Really, Mom, when have I ever lied to you?" Lu Feng said.

The old lady was skeptical. She looked at Lu Feng and then at Tan Xi Yuan, thinking that her son had never made any promises to her before, but now he was making a firm commitment. Maybe this could actually work.

The old lady stopped arguing and no longer insisted on them adopting her niece's child.

While the old lady was no longer making a fuss, Tan Xi Yuan was feeling restless and uneasy.

During the lunch break, Tan Xi Yuan couldn't help but ask Lu Feng, "Honey, what if I still can't get pregnant even after all this?"

Lu Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. Having a child is not something that happens overnight. We can take it one day at a time, and when the time comes, I will talk to my mom about it."

"But... isn't that inappropriate?"

"What other option do you have?"

"Well..." Tan Xi Yuan fell silent.

She wanted to ask Lu Feng if he had another woman outside, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't find the courage to say it. She was afraid. She was afraid that if she asked, she would lose Lu Feng.

"Do you want an apple? I'll peel one for you," Li Man asked gently.

An Xin shook her head indifferently, pursing her lips without saying a word.

Seeing An Xin's distant expression, Li Man stopped beating around the bush and asked directly, "Do you dislike Wang Jun Feng?"

As soon as she heard Wang Jun Feng's name, An Xin's indifferent face finally showed some emotion. Her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, and her vacant gaze finally focused, completely unable to hide her disgust.

Li Man watched the change in An Xin's facial expression and said softly, "Tell Auntie, okay? No matter what happens, Auntie will help you."

An Xin's eyes instantly turned red, and she blinked, her long eyelashes moistened by tears. The tears slid down from the corner of her eyes without warning.

Li Man quickly pulled out a tissue and gently pressed it against the corners of her eyes, wiping away the tears. She said tenderly, "Don't be afraid. No matter what happens, Auntie will help you. Tell Auntie, did Wang Jun Feng bully you?"

Perhaps it was Li Man's gentle voice that made An Xin let down her guard, or perhaps Li Man had hit upon An Xin's concerns. An Xin, at her young age, didn't know how to hide her emotions. Being touched on the issue that weighed on her heart, An Xin couldn't help but cry out.

Upon seeing An Xin's reaction, Li Man knew she had guessed correctly, and it infuriated her to the point of almost exploding.

"Wuwuwu..." Unable to hold it in any longer, An Xin burst into loud sobs, as if she wanted to release all the grievances and pain she had experienced before.

Witnessing An Xin in such a state, Li Man couldn't help but feel an intense ache in her heart.
