"So, what we're guarding against now isn't that An Xiao doesn't have the ability, but what if she does have the ability?" An Nuan asked An Yanyuan, "If she does have the ability, we have no reason to dismiss her. If so, with her and Big Uncle making waves together in An's, we'll have a hard time dealing with it."
"Does An Xiao have this capability?" An Yanyuan obviously didn't take An Xiao very seriously.
After all, An Xiao was an illegitimate daughter, and illegitimate daughters were simply unacceptable in high society. Even someone as cultured, knowledgeable and refined as An Yanyuan harbored prejudice towards An Xiao deep down.
Perhaps it was the deep-rooted feeling from the previous life that An Xiao would not be capable, which led to his lack of vigilance against her.
Little did he know, the final instigator of the An family's destruction was none other than An Xiao.
Now that she already knew everything in advance, why not make preparations ahead of time?!
"Dad, don't judge a book by its cover or measure the sea with a pint pot." An Nuan was very serious.
"Then what do you suggest we do?" An Yanyuan would still go along in the end, even though he didn't take it to heart.
But seeing his daughter so serious, he would play along.
"I'll go work at the company too." An Nuan smiled.
An Yanyuan was visibly shocked.
Li Yaju was also shocked.
Ye Jinghuai... was a bit shocked too.
He just looked at An Nuan meaningfully.
Looking at this woman, she had really changed thoroughly.
"I said before that I would help you." An Nuan was a little unhappy with their looks.
An Yanyuan quickly composed himself, "I'm just too happy. I was caught off guard for a moment. You've really decided to go work at the company? Go help your dad at the company?"
"Yeah, decided." An Nuan nodded.
She had decided long ago.
She just hadn't gotten around to it yet.
Now that she was married too.
Alright.
Even if it was a marriage of convenience, it still counted as marriage, so she should go to the company and work hard.
"When will you join the company?" An Yanyuan was quite eager.
"Tomorrow..."
"What tomorrow or the day after." Li Yaju suddenly interrupted them, "Going to work right after getting married, how decent is that."
"Getting married and going to work don't really conflict..." An Yanyuan weakly refuted.
"Of course they conflict." Li Yaju righteously stated, "The first thing to do after getting married is to have a child. Nuan Nuan should start planning with Jinghuai right away and get pregnant as soon as possible. After having the first child, wait two or three years, then you can have the second child."
An Nuan almost choked on her own saliva because of what her mother said.
Giving birth to a child, what's that about.
She and Ye Jinghuai didn't have any kind of relationship right now...
She was clearly a little flushed, "Mom, how old am I, and you want me to have kids already, I'm still a kid myself."
"A kid? You're almost thirty!"
"I'm only 22." An Nuan collapsed.
That's right.
She was 32 after living another lifetime, but right now she was in a 22 year old body.
She was still so young, her skin was so tender it could squeeze water out, what's with saying she was almost thirty.
"Anyway, having children early is definitely not wrong. Your mom had you late, partly because I met your dad too late. Otherwise, I might have had a second child."
"Mom, do you have some dissatisfaction with me? You want a second child." An Nuan was very angry.
"You child!" Li Yaju was a little angry, "What's so bad about your mom wanting you to have children early? While your dad and I are still young, help look after your children more, what's wrong with that?"
"If you like children so much, why don't you and dad have another one, I don't mind..."
"Nonsense again." Li Yaju interrupted An Nuan's words, her face clearly flushed with embarrassment.
An Nuan couldn't help but laugh.
She was about to reason with her mother again.
At that moment, Ye Jinghuai suddenly said, "25 years old."
An Nuan looked at Ye Jinghuai.
Li Yaju and An Yanyuan also looked at him.
Not understanding.
"When Nuan Nuan is 25 years old, we'll have a child." Ye Jinghuai supplemented.
An Nuan was completely done.
Who said she was going to have a child at 25!
"I want Nuan Nuan to enjoy being a kid a little longer." Ye Jinghuai's tone was clearly very doting.
An Nuan's face was about to turn red and explode.
This guy was alright at saying flirtatious things, but saying this in front of her parents, did she still want face.
Talking about being a kid.
Making it seem like he was spoiling her as his daughter.
"You young people these days..." Li Yaju was a little helpless.
But seeing her son-in-law dote on her daughter so much, she was naturally happy inside too.
So she was clearly somewhat appeased.
Ye Jinghuai earnestly said again, "Plus I've calculated it, if Nuan Nuan gets pregnant at 25, it'll be perfect for having a daughter."
An Nuan glared at Ye Jinghuai.
Who wanted a daughter.
And could the gender of the child be calculated like that?!
"You like daughters?" Li Yaju was somehow fooled by him.
"Yes." Ye Jinghuai nodded.
"I like them too. When I was pregnant with Nuan Nuan, I wished for a girl. You don't know how cute Nuan Nuan was as a child, white, chubby, and round..."
"Hold on, I still have photos of Nuan Nuan as a kid, I'll bring them for you to see." Li Yaju was very eager.
"Okay." Ye Jinghuai also played along enthusiastically.
An Nuan really couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Didn't see her mom being so enthusiastic when Gu Yan Sheng came to the house before.
She decided not to be led astray by these two.
She said seriously to her dad, "Weren't we talking about going to the company just now? I'll go to the company tomorrow."
"Don't you need a honeymoon or something?" Although An Yanyuan really wanted An Nuan to join the company, he still had to consider her actual situation.
"No need, we didn't plan to go anywhere and play." An Nuan directly rejected it.
Ye Jinghuai pursed his lips.
Well.
The wife calls the shots.
"If that's the case, alright. Dad will arrange a position for you tomorrow."
"The direct supervisor above An Xiao." An Nuan had thought it through long ago.
An Yanyuan was clearly somewhat surprised.
"That way, she'll be right under my nose, what trouble could she cause?" An Nuan smiled at the corner of her mouth.
An Yanyuan couldn't help but applaud at that moment, "Excellent!"
"It's settled then." An Nuan didn't forget to remind him.
"Just come to work tomorrow directly." An Yanyuan gave An Nuan a reassuring look.
An Nuan nodded.
At the same time.
Li Yaju brought down a photo album from upstairs.
She was in high spirits as she handed it to Ye Jinghuai, "This has Nuan Nuan's photos as a child."
Ye Jinghuai opened the photo album.
At this moment, everyone else was also drawn to the album.
The first picture was An Nuan's birth photo.
Really... so ugly.
An Nuan felt she had no face to see anyone.
How could they still have such an ancient photo.
Ye Jinghuai was actually looking at it with great interest.
Fortunately, the further back she went, the older An Nuan got, and a beautiful little girl came to life.
"Is this Gu Yan Sheng?" Ye Jinghuai suddenly spoke, his tone seemingly emotionless.
Li Yaju hurriedly explained, "Because of the relationship between Nuan Nuan's grandfather and Gu's grandfather, Nuan Nuan and Gu Yan Sheng knew each other since they were little, so we kept some photos. I'll take them down later. By the way... who's this little boy?"
At this moment, Ye Jinghuai suddenly flipped to a photo.
An Nuan also frowned.
Why didn't she remember knowing this boy.
And the more she looked at him, the more familiar he seemed for some reason.
She couldn't help but glance up at Ye Jinghuai.
My god!
