“Ahem …” The two were still staring at each other there, when they suddenly heard a light cough coming from beside them.

The father and son were stunned. They turned their heads and saw Zhao Youlin’s serious face and the frighteningly gentle smile. “What’s the matter? Was the dish I put on your plate so unappealing to you?”

Mu Tingfeng could not retort to that. He gloomily stared at the remaining pieces of carrots on his plate for a few moments. Then, as if he finally resigned to his fate, he picked up the fork and put a piece of carrot into his mouth.

Joy was slightly relieved after he saw the situation. He cheerfully buried his head and was ready to eat other dishes in the bowl. However, he suddenly saw a few pieces of carrots, which he hated the most, being put into his bowl.

Joy’s round eyes suddenly widened. He looked incredulously at the pieces of carrot. Then, he looked up aggrievedly at the culprit who was causing all this.

“Mommy …” Joy’s eyes were flooded with tears as he looked pitifully at Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Youlin smiled and stroked his head. She gently but firmly said, “Daddy is right. Children need to eat more carrots to grow up. So, you have to eat too, Joy.”

Upon hearing that, Joy acted like a deflated balloon. He miserably picked up the pieces of carrots and put them into his mouth. Looking at these furrowed brows, people who did not know the truth would have thought he was eating some kind of poison!

Seeing his son’s reaction, Mu Tingfeng finally felt better. His calm eyes were rippled with a faint smile.

On the other side, Duan Yarong and others who have witnessed everything shook their heads in a resigned manner. They exchanged knowing glances with each other and their eyes were full of joy as well.

During the meal, Duan Yarong was happy to put the dishes into everyone’s bowl, An Yue and the others were happy to eat the dishes she put into their bowls, Zhao Shunrong and the old master were happy to enjoy the show. The only one who was slightly disturbed and even a little embarrassed was Zhao Youlin.

After lunch, Duan Yarong continued to chat with An Yue. Even Joy was being taken away by Uncle Zhao, with An Yue’s cookies as temptation. Han Yichen rightfully sat across from An Yue and Duan Yarong and talked to Zhao Shunrong and the old master about some secrets among men. They were having a good time.

Zhao Youlin took this opportunity to pull Mu Tingfeng and headed out.

Mu Tingfeng seemed to have expected this reaction from Zhao Youlin. He did not resist and obediently let her take him all the way to the backyard where they could be alone.

After glancing around to make sure no one would barge in and disturb them at this time, Zhao Youlin’s face immediately turned gloomy. She stared at Mu Tingfeng and asked in a deep voice, “What exactly are you doing here today?”

She did not believe that Mu Tingfeng’s sudden appearance at her house at this time was a coincidence. She figured that it must be some ‘close friend’ who was very close with her brother and leaked the news to him. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that he did not come sooner or later, but he picked today to come?

Mu Tingfeng stood still and stared at Zhao Youlin without blinking. Just when Zhao Youlin thought he was not going to answer her question, Mu Tingfeng suddenly took a few steps forward. Then, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.

“What are you …” Zhao Youlin was taken aback by Mu Tingfeng’s sudden action.

After she recovered herself, she raised her hands to struggle. Then, she heard Mu Tingfeng murmur in her ear, “Let’s … remarry.”

“You …” Zhao Youlin’s hands, which had already reached out, stiffened.

Before she could finish, Mu Tingfeng interrupted her. “You told me before that we could remarry as long as Joy agrees.”

Zhao Youlin’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing that. She looked up at Mu Tingfeng and asked, “Did Joy even agree?”

Joy rejected this guy so much before, he got so nervous when he saw him. How was it possible that he accepted him so quickly?

That was why she took advantage of this and made that request to Mu Tingfeng before.

However, Zhao Youlin unconsciously recalled the image of Mu Tingfeng leading Joy and walking toward her from a distance, and Joy’s dependence on Mu Tingfeng when they were at the playground before.

Zhao Youlin was in a little panic. Could it be … Could it be Joy that kid had changed his mind now and sold her away?

Mu Tingfeng stood silently beside her. Seeing the expressions on Zhao Youlin’s face, the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.

Seeing that he had gotten Zhao Youlin being caught in conflicted thoughts for quite some time, Mu Tingfeng calmly opened his mouth and said, “No.”

Zhao Youlin was stunned and as if she had realized something, she looked up and gave Mu Tingfeng a fierce glare. “Since he hasn’t agreed, then why are you talking about remarrying?”

As soon as Zhao Youlin finished speaking, she struggled hard and tried to leave Mu Tingfeng’s embrace.

Mu Tingfeng, however, did not intend to just let her go. He held her hands tightly and whispered, “He did not say no, but that is also because we have not asked him yet. How can you be sure if he is going to say no?”

Zhao Youlin’s struggling movements paused for a second, but she quickly recovered. She stared at Mu Tingfeng and sneered, “Then how can you be sure he is going to say yes?”

Mu Tingfeng did not say anything. He stared at Zhao Youlin’s eyes for a long time before he sighed softly. “Youlin, Joy needs a complete family. And we also need a resolution to this.”

Zhao Youlin trembled. Mu Tingfeng was right. Joy needed a complete family, not just a home with his grandparents and his mother, and without a father. She always knew that.

As for their results …

Mu Tingfeng took in Zhao Youlin’s momentary hesitation. Though he did not take advantage of it, instead, he stayed silent. He was waiting for Zhao Youlin to figure things out herself.

In fact, he always knew that when Zhao Youlin said she would only remarry him if he could obtain Joy’s agreement, on the one hand, maybe it was really because she cared about the kid’s feelings, but on the other hand, she was just using Joy as an excuse to avoid something. As for what Zhao Youlin was avoiding, Mu Tingfeng actually understood it better than anyone else.

Silence spread little by little between the two. Just when Mu Tingfeng thought that Zhao Youlin was going to change the subject again like before, or just get annoyed and turn away, he heard Zhao Youlin mumble back to him, “Give me some time, let me think about it. Soon … soon …”

Zhao Youlin’s voice got even lower, and he could not hear what she said after that. However, when Mu Tingfeng heard her say the word soon, his eyes uncontrollably lit up.

The warm afternoon sun shone diagonally on the two, coating them with a light glow.

A light breeze blew through the wide courtyard, causing the grass inside the courtyard swaying from side to side, and causing his magnetic voice to be tinged with a hint of ecstasy.. “Okay.”
