Chapter 55 -55 I’m Going to Be a Dad_1

Everyone arrived at a renowned Thai Restaurant in C City, and this meal was not something the average person could afford.

After ordering the meal, Mu Feng suddenly stood up, looked at everyone with a smile, and slowly began to speak, “I’m going to be a dad!”

“Pfft–”

“Pfft–”

Aside from the persons involved, Kang Xiaolan, Su Wanxia, and Mu Yingchen, the others remained frozen in their seats, with Ji Hua and Mu Chuyang getting so startled by Mu Feng’s announcement that they almost spat out their drinks.

“No way!” Yan Yirou, Jian Manhui, and Gong Yining all turned to look at Kang Xiaolan, then fixed their gazes on her flat stomach.

“Xiaolan, are you really pregnant?” Yan Yirou looked at Kang Xiaolan in shock. Just a while ago, she was talking about tackling Mu Feng, but it seems her tackle has resulted in a little Mu Feng?

“Hehe, yeah,” Kang Xiaolan replied, her face flushing red with embarrassment as she nodded.

“How far along?” Jian Manhui asked the question everyone wanted to know.

“One month,” Kang Xiaolan lowered her head even further.

Mu Feng continued, “When the time comes for my wedding to Lanlan, you all have to be there, no one can be missing!”

“Second brother, are you sure you’re not joking with us?” Mu Chuyang asked, looking rather incredulous.

“Do I look like I’m joking?” Mu Feng asked with a smile.

“Oh my god!” Mu Chuyang exclaimed, burying his head in his hands on the table. Why were there so many shocking events happening lately?

Ji Hua frowned thoughtfully. Mu Feng wasn’t known for jokes; he knew that even better than their eldest brother, Mu Yingchen. But their marriage—the wives of the Mu family were not so easy to be—even if their status as brides was not easy to accept.

“So when do you plan to get married?” Yan Yirou asked straightforwardly; now that she’s one month pregnant, they definitely need to hurry up and tie the knot.

Mu Feng looked up at Mu Yingchen, who was seated in a higher position, “Brother, only you can help us with this,” Mu Feng had long known that his marriage would need to get his parents’ approval. Before, his parents talked about introducing a girlfriend to him; he knew those were their preferences. So his own marriage to Lanlan might not get their immediate approval. But now that Lanlan was carrying his child, as long as his elder brother stepped in, there would surely be no problem.

Mu Yingchen looked up at him, paused for a moment, then nodded.

Su Wanxia couldn’t help but snicker on the side, the thought of him playing matchmaker was amusing just to think about.

In fact, Mu Yingchen also felt that it was weird; he had never done something like this before. But since Mu Feng had asked, he felt it would be bad to refuse. Besides, it might only go smoothly if he got involved.

Seeing Mu Yingchen nod, Mu Feng finally relaxed and smiled with relief.

The atmosphere around the table was odd, with people periodically gazing at Kang Xiaolan and then at Mu Feng, shifting their attention to Ji Hua and Gong Yining, and finally resting on Su Wanxia and Mu Yingchen.

Shaking her head helplessly, Su Wanxia had not expected so much to happen in just under three months, it was truly unexpected.

However, the most surprising and shocking thing was Kang Xiaolan and Mu Feng’s wedding news, and everyone soon offered their blessings, wishing for the couple to get married soon.

After the meal, Mu Feng drove Kang Xiaolan home, Ji Hua took the initiative to escort Gong Yining, and Yan Yirou still rode back with Jian Manhui. Only Mu Chuyang left alone in his car.

The lively group had just dispersed, leaving only Mu Yingchen and Su Wanxia behind.

Mu Yingchen, as expected, drove Su Wanxia home. When she got out of the car, he suddenly spoke up, “Wanwan, in half a month my mother will be back, can I take you to meet her?”

Su Wanxia’s body stiffened, then she suppressed the bitterness in her heart, looked out of the window, and responded quietly, “Achen, is it important for me to get your mother’s approval?” She knew what he meant, he wanted her to be accepted by his family, and then marry her.

For some reason, Mu Yingchen’s heart tightened viciously when he heard those words. “I want you to meet my family, and likewise, I want my family to meet you, Wanwan. If you’re not ready now, we can meet them later.”

There was a lump in Su Wanxia’s throat as she murmured lowly, “I don’t want to meet them.”

Those light words sent a tremor through Mu Yingchen’s heart, his obsidian-like eyes revealing loss, confusion, and helplessness.

His beautiful lips parted slightly, “Why?” Why didn’t she want to meet his family? Why wouldn’t she let his heart settle down? Why did she always give him the feeling of uncertainty, as if she might leave him at any moment?

Su Wanxia withdrew her gaze from the window and met Mu Yingchen’s profound eyes, “Can you not push me, please?” Her voice carried a hint of pleading. She just wanted to be well by his side, wasn’t that enough?

“She is my mother, apart from grandfather, my only family,” Mu Yingchen’s voice carried a trace of helplessness.

The hope in Su Wanxia’s eyes shattered completely. She lowered her gaze, her lips trembling, “I’m sorry,” and then she opened the car door. Without looking at what Mu Yingchen’s reaction might be, she got out of the car and left.

Mu Yingchen watched her retreating back, a sense of defeat welling up within him. How many times had he watched her figure disappear from his view, wanting to grab her but unable to? How much he wished she would look back at him, giving him the courage to catch up and say those words: let’s get married!

But why was she always so resolute, unwilling to give him even a glance, leaving him without the courage to step forward?

Mu Yingchen sat in the car for a long time then finally started the vehicle and drove away.

Half a month passed by in the blink of an eye.

During this half month, Su Wanxia had become a workaholic, arriving at the company early in the morning and working overtime until nine in the evening every day.

Mu Yingchen hadn’t sought her out in this half month. Of course, she hadn’t looked for him either; she had devoted all her energy to her work.

“Can, what do you think about this?” Su Wanxia tossed a set of design drafts onto Meng Can’s desk. It was a result of several modifications and the one she was most satisfied with so far.

“Hmm, it’s very good, I’d say it’s perfect,” Meng Can commented while looking at the drafts in his hand.

Su Wanxia frowned and leaned in, “The lighting in this area is a bit dark, the effect isn’t great. I’m quite pleased with the other areas though, I think it fits the overall design style well.”

“Summer, I’ve never doubted your capabilities,” Meng Can said with a smile to Su Wanxia.

Su Wanxia laughed twice, “I’ll go adjust the lighting again, then tally the materials and hand them over to Mr. Mu.”

Upon hearing Su Wanxia mention Mu Yingchen, Meng Can inquired tentatively, “Summer, have you and Mr. Mu been in a conflict recently?” Seeing her work so hard, he felt distressed.
