For the time being.

A woman that even Yu Jiangqing couldn’t manage… She must really be something.

Ye Yuwei had come across Yu Jiangqing a few times. He wasn’t as sharp as Gu Juexi and wasn’t as gentlemanly as Lu Qichuan, but he had something else about him. a.s.sertiveness.

Right, he was a.s.sertive.

Except that it wasn’t the pushy type that put people off. He was the kind that could make you let your guard down during a conversation, thus letting him achieve his goal.

Compared to Yu Jiangqing, Ye Yuwei preferred people like Gu Juexi. His likes and dislikes were clearly portrayed on his face.

People like Yu Jiangqing twisted the truth easily and manipulated facts. There might be no one that could guess Yu Jiangqing’s real thoughts.

Ye Yuwei lowered her head and opened the food container. She looked at the hot dumplings and her eyes glazed over in longing.

“You just left without a word. What about Sichen?” Ye Yuwei returned to her composed self quickly.

“Tan Chenxiao has been in B City lately. She doesn’t want to see me anyway.” Lu Qichuan placed his palms on the sand to feel the warmth from the sun. “If I was around, she wouldn’t be at ease either. Since she’s in B City, she can spend some time with Sichen. I don’t want to return and be an eyesore to her.”

Lu Qichuan said it in a relaxed manner as if it was normal, without any amendments or concealment.

He wasn’t avoiding Tan Chenxiao, but he was fulfilling his duties as a father to retreat when necessary.

“If I tried to persuade you to consider Sichen’s feelings, would I be asking for a beating?” Ye Yuwei asked frankly as she pinched a dumpling by the skin and lifted it up.

“I’m glad you realize,” Lu Qichuan reb.u.t.ted and laid down on the beach. “I don’t want my child to live for me, but many people expect that I should live for my child. Lately, my parents have been asking me to find a mother for Sichen. I brought Sichen into this world but I wouldn’t interfere in her life. Likewise, I find it odd that I should change the way I live for her.”

A statement—that was asking for a beating.

But it was also a statement that Ye Yuwei couldn’t refute.

Parents and children were decided by fate, but the relations.h.i.+ps between them and how they wanted to conduct their lives were up to the individuals.

“Tan Chenxiao needs freedom, and I’m contented with my current life.” Lu Qichuan turned and looked at Ye Yuwei. “Am I wrong?”

“From a mother’s perspective, you’re lousy. But from one middle-aged person to another, you’re not doing anything wrong,” Ye Yuwei quipped and continued eating the dumplings, her mind on the two men who had entered the forest. She wondered where they were now.

Lu Qichuan chuckled and closed his eyes.

Xiao Yaojing and PA Wen were sitting more than ten meters away. Every time Xiao Yaojing glanced towards the beach, PA Wen would turn her head back to him.

Xiao Yaojing was secretly pleased with PA Wen’s jealousy.

“How am I only now realizing that as long as Yezi is around, his gaze will never leave her.” Xiao Yaojing propped her chin with her hands on the table and looked at the color draining from the man’s face.
