From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love

Speak of the devil, and the devil arrives.

Nan Qiao sat on Li Yehan without getting up. Li Yehan answered the phone for her, turning on the speaker, and placed the phone on the table.

Holding the phone was tiring for Qiaoqiao's hand.

"Qiaoqiao, do you have time today? I want to invite you to a meal."

Nan Qiao: ?

The relationship between Nan Qiao and Du Qianqian is just that of ordinary friends, not close enough to occasionally meet for a meal.

Since she called to ask for a meal, it must be something important she wants to discuss, right?

"Why are you contacting me? What's up?" Nan Qiao asked softly.

Du Qianqian, listening to Nan Qiao's gentle voice, also softened her tone: "I want to thank you, invite you to a meal."

There was meaning between Du Qianqian's words. Nan Qiao understood; she wanted to say it in person.

"I have time this afternoon; let's meet at the café where we met last time."

"Alright, thank you, thank you for agreeing to meet me."

"No worries."

Nan Qiao hung up the phone.

Li Yehan: "Qiaoqiao, I don't agree with you going."

"I understand your concerns, so I plan to take you with me."

Li Yehan's eyes lit up, kissing Nan Qiao's rosy lips.

"My Qiaoqiao is so smart."

Nan Qiao smiled, getting up from Li Yehan.

"It's a bit tiring sitting. I want to take a walk."

"I'll walk with you."

Li Yehan held Nan Qiao's hand, strolling with her in the Bai family's garden.

There were few blooming flowers, but there were quite a lot of green plants.

The two walked hand in hand, passing by the courtyard where Grandpa Bai lived and overheard an argument between Grandpa Bai and Bai Zhenyang.

Granny Bai and Chen Xinwan sat beside them, trying to mediate between the two.

Nan Qiao and Li Yehan exchanged a glance and walked in to see what was happening.

As they got closer, Nan Qiao heard Grandpa Bai's displeased voice.

"Zhenyang, there's a problem with the schedule you showed me. A week has seven days, and your mom and I only get one day? Do you think that's fair?"

Bai Zhenyang: "Dad, giving you one day is already quite good. Consider how many people we have in our family compared to Uncle Li's family. Uncle Li's family can only have two days. Don't you agree?"

Granny Bai: "How can he have two days?"

Bai Zhenyang embarrassedly laughed: "Uncle Li said that although Li Tianhong isn't worth much, he is still the child's grandfather, so he takes up one slot. Although he's not allowed to take care of the child, his time still needs to be accounted for."

Nan Qiao & Li Yehan: "..."

Grandpa Bai & Granny Bai: "..."

Nan Qiao couldn't help but laugh at how hard everyone was working to care for her child.

At this moment, Granny Bai also expressed her opinion: "I think Li Tianhong shouldn't have any time. What if he finds out he has time to see the child and decides to go? He's a dangerous person; the child is so small, they might get scared."

The Bai family did not approve of Li Tianhong's actions or character.

Li Tianhong was too dangerous; if he hurt the child, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chen Xinwan: "Dad, maybe you should say something to Uncle Li. It doesn't work well when I go."

Old Mr. Bai gave a directive: "I'll talk to him, I'll go to talk to him, and I'll make sure he gives up this unrealistic idea soon."

Old Mr. Bai took out his phone, preparing to make a call, when Nan Qiao walked in.

"Grandpa, I have something to tell you all."

Old Mr. Bai held the phone while the whole family turned their gaze toward her in unison.

Li Yehan followed behind Nan Qiao, giving off a powerful oppressive aura when serious.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, you don't need to worry about watching one child anymore. Now you have to think about how to arrange time to take care of two."

As soon as she said this, the place went silent.

Was there something wrong with their hearing?

Taking care of two children?

They looked at each other, all standing up at the same time.

Chen Xinwan walked over, supporting Nan Qiao to sit down.

"Qiaoqiao, my dear, do you mean you have two children in your belly?"

Bai Zhenyang: "My daughter is amazing, having two in one go."

Nan Qiao smiled awkwardly.

Grandpa Bai and Granny Bai couldn't stop grinning.

Granny Bai: "Two children will be quite lively. But Qiaoqiao, can your body handle it?"

Grandpa Bai: "Qiaoqiao, you're too thin; raising two children might be tiring. Why don't you take a leave of absence from school and not go for now? The children are important, but so are you."

Granny Bai: "Old man, you don't get it. Qiaoqiao is used to being busy; if you make her stop, she'll get anxious. I was like that; you made me stay at home, move less, rest more. In the end, when I gave birth to Zhenyang, I had a difficult labor and almost lost my life."

Chen Xinwan: "Mom, you're so considerate. I used to hope Qiaoqiao could rest more too, but then I thought, she's used to being busy with her career; why should only us women have to slow down?"

Bai Zhenyang rubbed his nose, feeling like he was caught in the crossfire.

Back then, he also wanted Chen Xinwan to rest well and temporarily not go to work.

But Chen Xinwan refused.

Everyone has different thoughts and makes different choices; Bai Zhenyang wouldn't force Chen Xinwan to choose something she didn't like.

Chen Xinwan gently spoke: "Qiaoqiao, my dear, we are fine with whatever you want. If you don't want to stay at home, you can go out to work too. But you must reduce your workload; carrying two children is harder than one."

"Mom, I know my body; don't worry, I'll definitely take care of myself."

Li Yehan: "From now on, I'll pick up and drop off Qiaoqiao, and accompany her for lunch."

In the past, Li Yehan was often too busy and didn't have lunch, which was common.

Now that Nan Qiao is pregnant, he wants to ensure she eats on time and rests well.

The family sat together as Chen Xinwan looked at the schedule in her hand and announced a decision.

"I need to remake the schedule. With two children, one person definitely can't handle it. How about this: we pair up, plus a nanny and a parenting expert, to take care of the children together."

Nan Qiao laughed: "What about Grandpa Li?"

Chen Xinwan: "We'll have Uncle Li come to our house."

Grandpa Bai: "I think this works well. Let him live here, so if he wants to see the children, he'll have to come over, given that he's all alone."

Granny Bai smiled without saying a word.

Grandpa Li: I'm at my wit's end with you, you old scoundrel!

Old Mr. Li hasn't yet heard about the situation on this side, but he's already been scheduled like this.

Meanwhile, he's listening to his subordinates report the interrogation results.

"Sir, the driver adamantly insists it was Young Mr. Ye Han. We've used all the legal methods, but he still sticks to that statement."

After reporting, the subordinate stood to the side, not daring to breathe.

Old Mr. Li said nothing, and seeing this, Uncle Fu had the person reporting step out first.

Only the two of them remained in the room.

Uncle Fu: "Sir, do you believe what he says?"
