Chapter 49 It seems he's developed real feelings?
"Brother Yanchuan, what... what did you just say?" Huo Tingting froze on the spot.
Shen Qingshuang, standing to the side, also looked at Huo Yanchuan in disbelief. She never expected that he would actually accept the bastard child in Wenrou's belly for the sake of Wenrou.
Is this still the Huo Yanchuan she used to know?
Not only the two of them, but even Wenrou, who was being held in Huo Yanchuan's arms at this moment, stared at him with wide eyes, looking at him incredulously.
Has Huo Yanchuan gone mad?
Although Huo Yanchuan had mentioned registering the two children's household registrations before, she never imagined that he would directly acknowledge these two children as his own.
At this moment, Wenrou stared blankly at the man holding her, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't moved.
But she also knew that Huo Yanchuan was only saying this to temporarily shut these people up.
Even so, Wenrou was extremely grateful for his kindness in doing this much for her, and she didn't even know how she could repay him in the future.
"How could you accept the child in her belly...? Even if you agree, Grandpa and Mom and Dad will definitely not agree," Huo Tingting said hurriedly after realizing what was happening.
Huo Yanchuan looked at Huo Tingting coldly, and his words chilled her to the bone.
"It's not up to others to decide my affairs."
After saying that, he carried Wenrou home, ignoring the two of them.
As Shen Qingshuang watched Huo Yanchuan's departing figure, her eyes shifted from disbelief to jealousy, and a hint of resentment.
She used to like Huo Yanchuan so much, always following him around, but he never even gave her a glance.
Now, he's actually willing to publicly acknowledge another man's child in a woman's womb for the sake of a woman from the countryside?
She originally thought that Huo Yanchuan married Wenrou just to appease his family, but now it seems that he has developed real feelings for her.
She still couldn't believe it; no one could possibly be gentle.
Wenrou was carried into the house by Huo Yanchuan, and only then did she realize what was happening.
"Um, could you put me down?"
She had completely forgotten that she was being held by Huo Yanchuan; the scene kept replaying in her mind, to the point that she had forgotten about it.
Huo Yanchuan responded and put her down.
When Hao Gang drove back just now, Wenrou was asleep in the car.
Seeing that she was sleeping so soundly, he couldn't bear to wake her, so he simply carried her back.
"Where are the things I brought back?" Wenrou asked, thinking of the mushroom spawn she had bought in the county today.
"It's still in the car; Hao Gang will bring it over in a bit."
Hearing Huo Yanchuan say this, Wenrou felt relieved.
If the item is lost, her trip today will have been in vain.
However, remembering what Huo Yanchuan had just said, Wenrou still asked again, "What you just said... is it true?"
She didn't want to implicate Huo Yanchuan or cause him to be misunderstood.
Huo Yanchuan looked at Wenrou and nodded, his eyes filled with unprecedented seriousness. "It's true. No matter what anyone says in the future, I will always be the father of these two children, their biological father."
He hasn't found an opportunity to tell Wenrou the truth yet, so he has to do this for now.
I'm worried that if I tell her now, she'll just hand me a divorce certificate and leave with the children.
He didn't know how much longer he could keep it a secret. This matter was a pain she didn't want to face, so Huo Yanchuan didn't plan to tell her for the time being, lest he reopen her wounds that had finally healed.
Wenrou was stunned again, not expecting Huo Yanchuan to be so serious.
"Thank you." She wasn't one to be sentimental, but faced with Huo Yanchuan like this, she didn't know what to say and could only utter these two words in the end.
Someone like her never imagined that someone would treat her with such sincerity as Huo Yanchuan.
In return, she decided that she would find a way to cure Huo Yanchuan's illness and make him like a normal man.
She also knew that although Huo Yanchuan had always been reluctant to bring up this matter, he understood that no man would be indifferent to his fertility.
She would keep this to herself and wait until she found a reliable method before telling him.
"By the way, this is the main ingredient of the culture medium. Do you have any good way to find it?" Wenrou wrote down the main ingredient on a piece of paper and handed it to Huo Yanchuan.
Huo Yanchuan took the paper and looked at it, then said, "This is easy. There are plenty of wheat straw and corn cobs in the surrounding villages. As for cottonseed hulls, we may need to go to a more distant place to collect them."
"Okay, then I'll go and check out the nearby villages tomorrow."
Huo Yanchuan gave a faint "hmm," then asked, "Do you need my help?"
Wenrou waved her hand gently, "No need, you go ahead and do your work. I can handle this."
Seeing that she said that, Huo Yanchuan didn't say anything more.
He knew that after Huo Tingting came here, his family would definitely know that he was going to acknowledge Wenrou's child.
Although he wasn't afraid of them finding out, he just found dealing with these things troublesome.
Huo Tingting, on the other hand, could no longer sit still.
She couldn't accept the thought that Huo Yanchuan had truly loved Wenrou.
"Sister Qingshuang, what should we do now? Do you think Brother Yanchuan has gone mad? Is it because of his injury in that area that he's so desperate for a child, even wanting to claim the child in Wenrou's belly?"
Shen Qingshuang doesn't know either, but she can't rule out Huo Tingting's claim.
"It's possible. Now we can only wait for your uncle and aunt to come and try to persuade him."
Huo Tingting was anxious, but there was nothing she could do but hope that her parents would come soon.
If that's really the case, then she'd be willing to adopt a child with Yan Chuan, which would be better than having someone else's child.
"Yes, even if Brother Yanchuan wanted to acknowledge the child in her belly, Mom and Dad would definitely not agree. There's no way they would let someone else's bastard into the Huo family."
With that thought in mind, Huo Tingting felt relieved for the time being.
The next day was Zhou Chunmei's wedding day. Although He Cuihua felt ashamed of her, she still went along.
Wenrou was pushing her cart around the village collecting wheat straw and corn cobs when she heard firecrackers going off in front of Guo Qiang's house.
Although Zhou Chunmei was wearing a red coat and had dressed up a little, the injuries on her face were still impossible to hide.
Wenrou knew Guo Qiang was a hoodlum, but she never expected him to lay a hand on Zhou Chunmei.
However, this is all Zhou Chunmei's own doing. Compared to her previous life, she is indeed worlds apart in this life.
In her previous life, Zhou Chunmei's good life was all obtained by stepping on her and sucking her blood.
Without her help in this life, the Zhou family's hard times are yet to come.
