Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Li Xiao saw his sons and grandsons, young and old alike, when he walked in from outside. When he noticed Li Beixing with Qiu Manyu beside him, his eyes sparkled as his happiness increased.

Su Qianci saw that Li Xiao had come home. She called out in greeting, “Dad.”

“Grandpa!”

“Hello, Grandpa!”

“Dad.”

Greetings rang out one after another. Li Xiao felt his heart warm up for some reason. It was a long time since he had smiled so dazzlingly as he said, “Let’s take a family photo.”

The family photo would freeze this moment in time where everyone was happy and together. Captain Li Xun sat in the middle, and the children stood around him. At the back were Li Xiao and his wife, Li Beixing and his wife, and Li Jinnan.

The number of people in the shot were neither few nor many, but when Captain Li Xun saw it, his eyes reddened. “Nice. This is really nice.”

Li Jianyue didn’t really understand what the fuss was all about. She blinked her eyes and stared at her great-grandfather in confusion. Without saying anything, she took hold of the photograph and crouched beside Captain Li to scrutinize the picture.

Li Sicheng took an SLR camera to take a few more pictures. They weren’t solely family pictures. He also took close-up shots of each person smiling.

Each couple had a picture together. As for the little kids, there were pictures of them squatting, running, jumping, walking, laughing, and even wailing.

When it came to Li Jinnan, it was just a picture of him alone with his shadow. His back was straight, and his brows were sharp. He looked hale and hearty.

When Li Jinnan received the photo of himself, he subconsciously added another person beside him in his mind. How nice it would have been if Ye Youyou had been by my side. It would be for the best for her to divorce Shen Luo’an as soon as possible.

As he was thinking about it, the atmosphere around him became lively. The family of more than 10 began gathering around the dinner table. The dining room was bustling with life as the Old Patriarch ate his food slowly with a wide, contented smile on his face.

After dinner, Qiu Manyu and Li Beixing took a walk with Captain Li, along with the children.

Li Jinnan sat on the couch with an unlit cigarette between his lips. He was sitting opposite Su Qianci. Looking at her belly, he asked, “How long has it been?”

“Over two months. The baby is very healthy.” Su Qianci reached out to stroke her belly. A smile hung on her face. She looked very happy as she turned to glance at Li Sicheng.

Li Sichen’s hand was resting on Su Qianci’s arm. When he saw the cigarette between Li Jinnan’s lips, he admonished, “There’s a pregnant woman present. No smoking.”

Li Jinnan raised his arms in defeat and replied, “Alright, alright. I didn’t light it at all!”

“Do you really have a girlfriend?” Li Sicheng was still in doubt, “Who is it? Do I know her?”

Li Jinnan shook his head. “Not yet. I’m still working on it.”

When Li Sicheng heard that, he understood the gist of the situation. He patted his wife’s hand and said, “Ou Ming’s wedding is the day after tomorrow. If it’s possible, trick her into coming and let us meet her.”

Li Jinnan chuckled when he heard that and replied, “I’m afraid she’s not too easy to fool, but I’ll try my best.”

“Grandpa is getting old. You’re the last one single in the family. Be more promising and give him a chance to carry your child.” Li Sicheng’s volume wasn’t loud, but each word he uttered held great meaning.

Li Jinnan began to feel uneasy. He pursed his lips and nodded his head. At the thought of the current situation between Ye Youyou and Shen Luo’an, he gave a sigh and said, “I’ll do my best.”

Ye Youyou had already made her stance clear. Regardless of whether she had been pressured into it, or if it had happened out of happenstance, she was now willing to be with him.

Now, the biggest problem was not Ye Youyou. It was Shen Luo’an.
