Because I have been pregnant for five months... 0
 
I wanted to see that woman and his child with my own eyes... 0
 
So, on the morning of the sixth day of October, I took Yao Dong to Maple Grove Bay... 0
 
At Lingfo Temple there, I saw that woman and his child... 0
 
The woman's name was Shen Ning... 0
 
She was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, praying for their family of three to be reunited soon... 0
 
Then she took out a red ribbon and tied it to a tree... 0
 
Seeing this, I walked over... 0
 
I noticed a line written on it: "If love can last for a long time, why worry about morning and evening?" 0
 
And that line was in Lin Han's handwriting! 0
 
In an instant, everything became clear to me! 0
 
He had been deceiving me all along! 0
 
 
After Lin Han left, I found myself with nothing to do, so I started learning to embroider clothes for children... 0
 
I was never one to touch a needle and thread. 0
 
But to pass the time, I began to learn how to make clothes... 0
 
A month passed in the blink of an eye. 0
 
Lin Han still hadn't returned. 0
 
My embroidery was nearly finished. 0
 
Just as I was contemplating whether to go look for Eldest Sister, Lin Han came back! 0
 
But he didn’t return alone! 0
 
He brought that woman and his child with him! 0
 
He entered first, and upon seeing me sitting on the stone bench in the yard, he walked over with a smile. 0
 
"A Jin," he said, wrapping his arms around me. "Have you been taking good care of yourself while I've been away?" 0
 
I replied coldly, "I'm fine." 0
 
 
He paused and didn't ask further. 0
 
Then he spoke again, "A Jin, there's something I want to discuss with you." 0
 
Discuss? 0
 
Ha! 0
 
What a joke! 0
 
It was clearly just a notification! 0
 
So I replied nonchalantly, "Go ahead." 0
 
"A Jin." He glanced at me and said, "My mother brought back two people." 0
 
Two people? 0
 
It seemed he was referring to that woman and her child! 0
 
I responded coolly, "Oh." 0
 
Lin Han noticed my calm demeanor and seemed a bit surprised. 0
 
 
Before he had the chance to speak, his mother entered with the woman and her child. 0
 
" the Wen," she said, looking at me sitting on the stone bench, "I have something important to discuss with you today." 0
 
" the Wen " is how I am addressed. 0
 
Because I am the daughter of the the Wen Family. 0
 
I replied coolly, "Please go ahead." 0
 
" the Wen," she continued, "this young lady beside me is named Shen Ning. She is the daughter of a distant relative of ours. 0
 
Since childhood, she has harbored feelings for Han'er. Unfortunately, her father was sentenced to death due to his crimes, leaving her an orphan. 0
 
Out of pity, she has come to us. Now she is pregnant, and the child is Han'er's. 0
 
I hope you can agree to let her enter our household as a concubine." 0
 
So it was that woman! 0
 
I turned to look at her and saw her blushing, dressed elegantly... 0
 
It seems Lin Han has indeed treated her well! 0
 
 
She smiled and said, " the Wen, you know that you are now pregnant. This child is my own grandson. I do not want him to be born without a name. Therefore, I hope you can allow Shen Ning to enter the household as a concubine. Rest assured, I won't let her bully you!" 0
 
Ha! 0
 
Bully me? 0
 
Her useless son has already bullied me! 0
 
How could she possibly bully me? 0
 
So I replied calmly, "You are the head of the household; you can make the decision." 0
 
" the Wen!" She looked at me with excitement and said, "You... you agree?" 0
 
I agreed? 0
 
Ha! 0
 
She really is amusing! 0
 
 
Shen Ning quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you, my lady!" 0
 
My lady? 0
 
Ha! 0
 
What kind of lady do I even count as! 0
 
So I replied coolly, "You may rise." 0
 
Upon hearing this, Shen Ning quickly stood up. 0
 
Then she looked at me and said, "My lady, I hope you will take care of me in the future." 0
 
Take care of me? 0
 
Ha! 0
 
She really knows how to flatter! 0
