Chapter 333 - "Oh, that will not be necessary lah." (3)

As she finished what she was saying, Ye Rongchen could not have been paler. Looking at her in disbelief, he said to her, “Yanyan…”

Nobody wanted something like this to happen. Looking at how pale Ye Rongchen was, Yan Shuyu didn’t feel redeemed nor did she want to laid more on him. She sighed and said, “As such, can you imagine how complicated it all feels for me?”

They could have been unrelated strangers. As her son’s father, they would certainly have a lot of contact with each other going forward. They might even become close friends over time. But now, given their current situation, they just might become enemy to each other any given minute. There was no way they could be friends.

Ye Rongchen, too, remained silent for a long while before he struggled to ask, “Then… are you going to marry him?”

Yan Shuyu replied honestly. “I was on the fence before. Now that you have shown up, it had lent me confidence.”

Still the same thing that she had said before. Her not getting along with Yuanbao’s father were matters between the adults. Ye Rongchen was still his birth father. She would not feel comfortable marrying the boss without the little kiddo’s father being around.

Ye Rongchen blinked and it looked like he was about to start crying any minute. He raised the corners of his lips some and said in a forced cheerfulness. “I guess I am still somewhat of use then.”

The man across from her didn’t cry but tears started streaming down Yan Shuyu’s cheeks. And she had no idea why she was drying.

Perhaps her brain still retained some memories of their past and the tears still remembered them.

Ye Rongchen handed over a tissue to her quietly and said to her in a low voice. “There is something else that I want to discuss with you. I plan to bring Yuanbao back to add him onto our genealogy officially. He will be the only child that I will ever have. The elderlies are old school so we must have him added.”

That was such a determination to promise that Yuanbao would be the only child that he would ever have. Yan Shuyu was quite moved when she heard that and she felt less resentful toward him. Thinking about it for a little bit, she still added, “It is fine just to add him to your genealogy. There is no need to never wed and have more children.”

Her son lost to the little male lead only because he didn’t have the male lead halo. That being said, he did have the villain’s halo. Even if Ye Rongchen was to have another 8 or 10 children from different mothers, she was confident that none of them would measure up to Yuanbao. Even if that was not the case, he would still have the boss and the little male lead on his side. As such, it would be fine for Ye Rongchen to be like her and get married and have children should he meet the right person. His determination alone made her half way to forgiving him.

Yan Shuyu didn’t know that the look on her had finally relaxed. Ye Rongchen gave her a few profound looks before he looked away and said jokingly, “I am afraid I will never meet anyone as pretty as you. Then I will have to stay single for life.”

That made Yan Shuyu happy and she decided to forgive him some more.

Ye Rongchen took the opportunity to bring up another request. “Can we delay your wedding to after we have added him onto our genealogy?”

“Why?” asked Yan Shuyu curiously.

Ye Rongchen tightened his lips some. He couldn’t possibly say that he just didn’t want things to go that smoothly for Boss Zhou. Finally, he smiled bitterly and said, “I worry that Yuanbao would run off with Boss Zhou.”

Yan Shuyu assumed he was traumatized by the story arc and comforted him. “Don’t worry. Yuanbao would not change his last name to Zhou if even if you had no reappeared. He has always had his birth daddy in mind.”

She had, nevertheless, agreed to Ye Rongchen’s request. The whole Ye family’s situation sounded like a lot of hassle and she probably wouldn’t feel like getting married before that anyway.
