Chapter 187: Congratulations on Becoming a Father, but the Real Father Is Not Me (2)
"Stew..."
"If that's the case, then I understand. Stewing is letting it roam free, or giving it away for adoption, because it's with other ingredients. Am I right?" Fang Chen asked.
"No, to stew someone means to be a beggar, or to be sent away as a servant." said Ji Xiaomu with a smile.
"How do you know what he meant?" Fang Chen asked.
"I guessed it after he finished speaking." Actually, Ji Xiaomu didn't know if this was what he meant. She guessed it, from the perspective of... someone who can cook?
Fang Chen smiled.
"What are you laughing at?" asked Ji Xiaomu.
"What are you going to do if he doesn't want the child?" Fang Chen asked.
"Adopt them? Train them from a young age and make them useful people." replied Ji Xiaowu.
"How is it useful?" Fang Chen was stunned.
"It depends on what he is interested in, and then train him in that direction. If he has a skill, at least he can make a living with his skill and not starve to death." said Ji Xiaomu.
"Of course, the prerequisite is that you have money. If you don't have money, you won't pretend to be rich."
Fang Chen hooked Ji Xiaowu's nose and said lovingly, "I will give you all the money in the future. You will definitely be rich."
"What... do you mean?" asked Ji Xiaomu.
"When war really breaks out in the future, the majority of people on the battlefield will be orphans... If you really have this plan, I will definitely support it." Fang Chen himself is such an orphan, and his brothers are almost all orphans as well. Even if they are not, they still consider themselves orphans. As orphans, they certainly understand best. When they are most helpless, they wish there was someone like Ji Xiaomu who could come out and help them.
"I will." Originally, Ji Xiaomu just said this casually, but when she heard Fang Chen's words, she suddenly remembered that Fang Chen was such an orphan. She realized that he was thinking about his own childhood. Back then, he was fortunate to have the villagers give him a bite to eat, so that he could survive in such an environment.
"I regret it." Fang Chen said suddenly.
Ji Xiao was stunned. Regret? Regret about what?
"What do you regret?"
"I regret agreeing to postpone the wedding date. I want to marry you home now." Fang Chen held Ji Xiaomu in his arms and sat on his lap.
Ji Xiao was angry and amused, but she still reached out and hugged him distressedly. "The reason for postponing the wedding is to give us a break-in period to confirm whether we can really live together, whether we can live together, and whether we will get along or quarrel after being together for a long time..."
"You don't believe me?" Fang Chen looked up at Ji Xiaomu, who shook her head. "I believe you, but I don't believe myself."
"Do you want to leave me?" Fang Chen stared at Ji Xiaomu, as if he would make her suffer if she dared to say the word "I want to"?
"...I haven't thought about it for now. We get along quite well." Ji Xiaomu actually felt that she was quite xenophobic. She thought that she would not be able to adapt to being with Fang Chen, but after they were together, she felt that they were very comfortable together, just like a couple who had lived together for many years.
But this also scared her. Could it be that he had always been giving in to her and tolerating her illusion, but it was actually just her self-satisfaction?
"Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you think I'm too strong because you always give in to me?" Ji Xiaomu looked at Fang Chen, and Fang Chen pinched her face with amusement.
"What the hell are you thinking about in your little head? I just like being with you. It's comfortable. I don't need to pretend. I feel relaxed and comfortable." Fang Chen said with a smile.
