Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

One had to admit that Ye Yan’s appearance was excellent from head to toe. The elders of the Su family had intended to nitpick on him at first. However, now, they had to admit that the young man in front of them was exceptional.

Judging from his appearance alone, he had good looks. In fact, he was not inferior to Mu Tingfeng and barely got a pass for his looks.

Judging from his aura, he lacked the violence and blood-filled of the Su family. He was not as stoic or as strict as Mu Tingfeng. He looked like a civilized person at just a single glance. Therefore, he barely got a pass for this.

If it had not been the fact that Su He was pregnant, the elders had a positive first impression of Ye Yan by judging from his appearance alone.

Ye Yan seemed to have expected that he would be viewed as a member of an exotic species of animal by the crowd as soon as he appeared. Therefore, he came here well-prepared. He did not look frightened in the face of the Su family’s elders’ stares. Instead, he let them stare at him.

The next moment, he approached the crowd steadily and said politely, “Nice to meet you, Grandpa Su, Uncle Su and Aunt Su. I am Ye Yan.”

His words were powerful, and he did not appear nervous at all as he faced their oppressive stares. He behaved appropriately, and the crowd gradually changed their opinions of him.

“So you are Ye Yan, huh?” Jiang Wenfang suppressed the astonishment in her heart and was the first to react to this. She stared at him as she threw the question, even though she already knew the answer.

“If there is no one else by that name among the people related to Xiao Qi, then it’s me indeed.”

“Oh?” Jiang Wenfang quirked one of her eyebrows. Her interest was piqued by Ye Yan’s response. “You’re being so honest, Mr. Ye. Could you please tell me why you came to our house today?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Yan inadvertently looked up and cast a glance at Su He, who was looking helpless, not far away from him. He then smiled faintly as he said, “To be frank, I want to use this opportunity to propose to Xiao Qi under your witness.”

“Propose to her?!”

“That’s right.” Ye Yan faced the probing stares calmly as he said firmly, “Xiao Qi and I are in love with each other. We have promised to be together for a long time. Now that Xiao Qi has conceived my child, Grandpa Su, Uncle Su and Aunt Su, I hope you could give us your blessings so that we could be together.”

“Promised to be together a long time ago?!” Jiang Wenfang was taken aback. She turned her head around and looked at Su Jifeng. ‘Didn’t you just say that this guy has forgotten about Xiao Qi? How did he find out about his promise to be with Xiao Qi together?’

Su Jifeng was equally as shocked as Jiang Wenfang and the rest of her group. He had no idea when Ye Yan recovered his memories.

All the while, Su Jifeng had assumed that Ye Yan’s feelings for Su He were solely due to Su He carrying his child in her womb. Ye Yan’s affection had grown as a result of his child. This was also the reason why Su Jifeng found Ye Yan displeasing in his sight.

Who would have thought that the reason this guy pestered his younger sister was because he had already regained his memories and recalled the past?! Fine. Even so, Su Jifeng still found Ye Yan displeasing in his sight!

When Jiang Wenfang saw her son’s dumbfounded expression, she knew that her son also had no idea about it.

She smoothed her creased eyebrows and schooled her face. A glimpse of bone-chilling light was caught in her eyes as she said, “That means you already know that Xiao Qi has conceived your child, huh?”

“Mother!” When Su He heard Jiang Wenfang’s words, she could not help but scream at her.

“Shut up!” Jiang Wenfang turned her head around and yelled at Su He. She then shot a glance at Su Jifeng, who was standing beside her, signaling him to keep an eye on his younger sister in case she popped out at this critical juncture and ruined their plan.

Su Jifeng had long found Ye Yan displeasing in his sight. This was especially so after he learned that Ye Yan came here to propose to his younger sister. As a result, he was so angry that he felt like he suffered from a stroke. When he received the hint from his mother’s gaze, he was naturally eager to assist her.

He immediately pulled Su He to the side to prevent her from chipping in on their conversation.

Ye Yan was holding a bouquet of flowers. His hand clenched when he saw Su He being pulled away. He gave a faint smile and a reassuring look to her. However, in his heart, he knew that the elders would not grant him the honor today.

Ye Yan pulled himself together. He looked up and faced Jiang Wenfang and the rest of her group’s hostile stares before he slowly gave a nod. “Yes, I am aware of it.”

“I heard that you were there before Xiao He was involved in the accident, right?”

“Yes.”

“In other words, you let Xiao He get hurt despite knowing she was pregnant, huh?”

Ye Yan’s entire body shuddered. Jiang Wenfang’s words had undeniably pricked his softest spot. The day Su He got injured had left an indelible scar in his heart.

Even today, he had nightmares and dreamed about Su He being covered in blood and curled up in his arms. She looked like she was on the brink of death and barely alive, yet he was helpless and powerless to intervene. As a result, he could only watch her getting weaker and, when he woke up from his dream, he ended up having a sleepless night!

Ye Yan fell silent for a brief moment before he blurted out with difficulty, “I… didn’t know…”

“What?”

“I didn’t know she was already pregnant at that time. If I knew, I would have…”

“Would have what?!” Jiang Wenfang cut Ye Yan off before he could finish his sentence. She put on a straight face as she took a step forward. “I ask you, how many months Xiao Qi was pregnant when she was injured?”

“I…” Ye Yan’s heart clenched. Without knowing the reason why, he was starting to feel diffident. “At that time, Xiao Qi was already four months pregnant…”

“Well, aren’t you just amazing?! Xiao Qi was already four months pregnant and you, the father of the child, had no idea your own child existed. How dare you still have the guts to speak so matter-of-factly to me and say it in my face that you didn’t know Xiao Qi was pregnant at that time?!”

“I…” Ye Yan was rendered speechless. The smile on his face faded, and he looked embarrassed.

Jiang Wenfang had no intention of sparing him. She sucked in a deep breath before she continued to suppress him. “What’s the deal with your stammering? Didn’t you say that Xiao Qi and you fell in love? However, it was clear that you were beside her when the accident happened. Xiao Qi is a girl, and why didn’t you protect her? When I chastise you for failing to protect Xiao Qi, you said you didn’t know that Xiao Qi was already pregnant at that time. In other words, you would protect her only if she is pregnant and if she is not, you won’t need to, huh?”

As Jiang Wenfang was saying this, there was a hint of coldness and firmness in her eyes as she stared at Ye Yan. “Are you showing your concern for Xiao Qi because you like her, or are you pestering her because you found out that she was pregnant with your child?”
