Time Travel: The Noble Family-Chapter 1411 - 579: The Storm Over Adoption (Part 2)

The Second Old Grand Master’s face was livid as he returned, and An Zhichen hurried to follow him.

Xiang Wei came in and said, "Your temper is so explosive? I think you’re most likely pregnant." Based on Yueyao’s usual temperament, even if she was angry, her attitude wouldn’t be so forceful. However, pregnant people often have strange personalities, so Xiang Wei found it quite understandable.

Yueyao: "I don’t think I said anything wrong, did I?"

Xiang Wei couldn’t help but laugh: "Alright, you didn’t say anything wrong, it was me who misspoke." Just now, saying "divorce if you want," wasn’t something an average woman would say. Hmm, under normal circumstances, Yueyao wouldn’t say something like that either. It’s well-known that Yueyao usually maintains An Zhichen’s reputation. When outsiders are present, Yueyao is definitely a considerate and gentle little woman. Not at all like today, as if she’d taken a fierce potion.

Yueyao didn’t pay any attention to Xiang Wei’s teasing and didn’t care what would happen to An Zhichen, because she felt hungry and wanted to eat.

The Second Old Grand Master questioned An Zhichen: "Are you just going to let her be like this?" Lian Yueyao’s arrogance was entirely indulged by An Zhichen.

An Zhichen naturally spoke up for Yueyao: "Elder Uncle, Zichang isn’t usually like this. I don’t know why recently, but his temper is particularly bad."

In the Second Old Grand Master’s impression, Yueyao wasn’t considered bad either, but today’s performance by Yueyao overturned all previous perceptions: "It’s all because you’ve spoiled her. Heyue, I’m telling you, women can’t be spoiled. Brother Zhuozhuo is a lesson from which you must learn." The Second Old Master detested An Zhizhuo’s deceased wife more than anyone else. Now, Yueyao had risen to the second rank.

An Zhichen didn’t say anything, but in his heart, he didn’t agree with this statement. Although Yueyao was somewhat excessive this time, she was still a hundred times better than An Zhizhuo’s late wife.

It took a long time for the Second Old Grand Master to calm down and he asked, "When will you be able to talk sense into her?" The talk of divorce was just said in a moment of anger; considering those three boys, they couldn’t just divorce Yueyao.

An Zhichen couldn’t give a specific time: "Elder Uncle, there are many children within the clan who are of good character and have great talent. What do you think, Elder Uncle?"

Upon hearing this, the Second Old Grand Master understood An Zhichen’s meaning and immediately sighed, saying, "It’s not that I’m being unreasonable, I just really like Brother Xuxu." There was something the Second Old Grand Master hadn’t told An Zhichen: Brother Xuxu’s personality was actually very similar to that of his son who died young; seeing Brother Xuxu felt like his son had returned to him.

An Zhichen quickly said, "Then I’ll bring Brother Xuxu over more often in the future." An Zhichen stopped just short of saying that being fond of someone doesn’t necessarily mean you have to adopt them!

Although the Second Old Grand Master was somewhat domineering, he was not unreasonable. He knew that if he really wanted to adopt Brother Xuxu, it wasn’t impossible. However, he didn’t want to cause turmoil and chaos in An Zhichen’s family: "Then make sure you bring Brother Xuxu over to play often."

An Zhichen readily agreed. However, to his surprise, Brother Xuxu refused to go to the Second Old Grand Master’s house, no matter what. Even if An Zhichen implemented family discipline, Brother Xuxu wouldn’t compromise.

Brother Shengsheng and Brother Feifei sought out An Zhichen over this matter, debating with him over it. When the two brothers finished their discussion, An Zhichen used the family discipline on them, sending them to stay with Brother Xuxu, making them truly share in the same plight.

After Yueyao found out about this, she became furious and had a huge argument with An Zhichen. While Yueyao’s debating skills weren’t as good as Xiang Wei’s, she was more than enough to handle An Zhichen.

An Zhichen was extremely angry, but although he could hit his three sons, he couldn’t bear to lay a finger on Yueyao. With both his wife and children rebelling against him, he really couldn’t stay in the house anymore, so in frustration, he left.

Xiang Wei looked at Yueyao’s belly in amazement and said, "Madam, you’re most likely pregnant with a boy." It was the first time Xiang Wei had seen Yueyao acting so fierce. Although Yueyao had been angry before, she never argued with anyone, let alone fight with An Zhichen. Therefore, Xiang Wei was convinced that this child must be a boy, and a feisty one at that.

Yueyao didn’t feel anything abnormal about herself at all: "A son or a daughter, either is fine."

An Zhichen didn’t return home for three consecutive days, but Yueyao remained extremely calm. Apart from taking care of her three sons who had been spanked, she went about her daily life as usual and wasn’t troubled at all by An Zhichen’s absence, to the extent that the people in the An Mansion were incredibly bewildered. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Seeing her daughter’s dark circles, Yueyao smiled and comforted her: "Silly girl, your parents are just having a little quarrel, but it scared you so much. When your father’s anger subsides, he’ll be home."
