Liu Feifei had a tight expression, looking at the little boy in front of her, puffed up with anger. In comparison, she seemed more like a child, while the little boy across from her was more like an adult.

"Auntie, you still haven’t said why you aren’t angry at all, even though you know godfather likes my mom!" The little boy in front of her, about five or six years old, continued to press on the topic.

Seeing him still asking like this, without realizing her displeasure, Liu Feifei came to the conclusion that the little boy in front of her was not cute at all.

Before she could say anything, the boy arrogantly raised his chin, "I know what you don’t, it’s because my mom is the most beautiful woman in the world, she’s the princess of our family. My dad is the prince, so of course she married my dad."

Liu Feifei pouted resentfully, "Your dad, with his face like a black-faced Justice Bao, where’s the prince in that? Look at your godfather; now that’s a prince!"

The little boy immediately puffed up his cheeks, "Auntie, that’s not black, it’s called cool, my mom says that’s handsome!"

Then he lowered his voice conceitedly, "So pale like uncle? Must be a pretty boy." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Liu Feifei couldn’t hold back anymore and yelled towards Ye Ling on the other side of the couch, "I say, woman, can’t you control your son a bit? How old is he? What’s with ’pretty boy’? You must have taught him that, right? How is my Weilai a pretty boy? Just because your own black-faced Justice Bao can’t match up, you call Weilai a pretty boy. You two are so mean."

Ye Ling coaxed the little girl in her arms with a smile, not raising her head as she laughed, "Look at you two arguing, why drag me in? You know I spend little time with him, it’s all my mother-in-law. Why don’t you go ask her?"

Liu Feifei, previously full of bluster, was defeated by Ye Ling’s words, her rage immediately doused, leaving her deflated like a pricked balloon.

However, she was not convinced, and turned to glare at the little boy in front of her, "Remember, that’s not called a pretty boy; it’s called cultivated."

Then Liu Feifei smiled mischievously, "Your dad’s a yokel, your mom’s like a flower stuck in... don’t need to say more, right? I’m sure you get it. If you don’t, you can ask your dad later."

Little Fatty pouted, "Don’t take me for a kid. I get you’re insulting my dad. Just wait till your daughter grows up; see how I bully her."

Liu Feifei laughed with triumph, "When my daughter grows up, I’ll keep her away so you can’t see her. Let’s see how you bully her then."

"No matter where she goes, I’ll find her," Little Fatty retorted defiantly.

Ye Ling watched the adult and the child bickering, shaking her head. Xiang Weilai has been married for four or five years now, and their child is already a year old. Back when he and Shen Bin went to Shenzhen, they saw a little girl chasing after Xiang Weilai, insisting on marrying him.

Xiang Weilai just ignored it and pulled Ye Ling over, saying he’d only love one woman in his lifetime, asking if she would still want to marry him knowing that. The little girl actually agreed to marry.

And that little girl was Liu Feifei.

She got along well with Ye Ling too. Ye Ling appreciated her character, which was kind-hearted, and despite knowing Xiang Weilai harbored feelings for her, she still remained close without any ulterior motives or prejudice.

Now, the two of them have a child, the little girl presently in Ye Ling’s arms, just 8 months old, blinking big eyes and drooling.

So cute that Ye Ling couldn’t resist giving her kisses all the time.

This was their first time returning to visit since Xiang Family had moved south, so there was no real need to return, except to see Ye Ling and the others.

Even with a child, Liu Feifei herself retained a child’s nature, spending half a day with her son, getting along like they were thick as thieves, turning around just to bicker again.

At first, people around them always tried to mediate, but eventually just let them be, watching them for amusement since the two didn’t seem to tire of it.

When Shen Bin got off work, the large group all headed to the noodle shop in front of the old school.

The noodle shop had grown bigger, looking like a large restaurant now.

The prices were fair, the environment pleasant, with a wide variety of dishes, becoming somewhat famous in the city.

Ye Ling’s group, instead of opting for a private room, found a large table on the ground floor to sit down. Among them were Zhao Guodong and his wife, Zhang Linong and his wife, together with Wang Ping and his partner.

Aside from Ye Ling and Xiang Weilai who had a child, none of the others did!

At the table, Liu Feifei openly recounted the earlier conversation at home, inviting everyone to judge, while Little Fatty looked resistant.

Hearing their exchange, everyone burst into laughter, creating a good atmosphere at the dinner table.

Envying vibes were evident to the onlookers.

In a corner, Sun Mingjie watched the group, his feelings indescribable.

His gaze fell on the woman beside Xiang Weilai, Xiang Weilai’s wife. He’d heard that Xiang Weilai was already married, with a daughter over a year old.

Sun Mingjie couldn’t help but think of himself. After marrying Liu Rui, she didn’t live with him and never let him touch her, using her startup as an excuse to go away with Liu Zhiyuan to develop in Beijing, only coming back around New Year’s.

Their marriage was nothing more than an empty title.

He knew he’d been used by the Liu Family, who only agreed to his marriage with Liu Rui to avenge Ye Qian, and he was just a pawn. How could the Liu Family respect him when he was entangled with Ye Qian? Now, though married, what kind of marriage was it?

Looking at those from back in the compound, who had been beneath them before, some of them had quickly risen in prominence.

This comparison only worsened Sun Mingjie’s mood, leading him to drown himself in booze alone in this place each day.

"Let’s head back. Since things have happened, they can’t be ignored." Aside, Dong Haoyu retracted his gaze, gently encouraging Sun Mingjie, "After all, it is your child. You can’t disregard that. Now that Ye Qian sent the child back, without any care, and you can’t find her, can you really throw the child out? With your and Liu Rui’s current marriage setup, having this child out of nowhere wouldn’t matter to the Liu Family."
