Cai Shufang stood quietly by, unfazed, and continued to speak about Yu Anwan, sometimes with a word or two.

Wen Jin occasionally responded, and the atmosphere between the old and the young was quite pleasant.

It wasn’t until Wen Jin finished cooking the porridge and kept it warm in the clay pot that Cai Shufang looked at him and said, “Wen Jin, I know you already have a fiancee. Since you’re engaged, why do you need to be entangled with Anwan?”

These words momentarily silenced Wen Jin, but he didn’t avoid Cai Shufang’s gaze.

The kind old man suddenly turned serious. “I know about your relationship with Anwan as well. Back then, you both had such an unpleasant breakup and in the end, you went your separate ways. Anwan even faked her death and cut off contact, even with an old lady like me. I understand Anwan’s temperament very well.”

Hearing this, Wen Jin chuckled self-deprecatingly in his heart.

Yu Anwan didn’t want to completely sever ties with him.historical

Even now, they could be intimate and engage in activities beyond societal norms.

However, in Yu Anwan’s eyes, Wen Jin could never see the initial affection and admiration. All that remained was coldness and indifference.

As he contemplated this, Wen Jin fell silent.

“Anwan has had a difficult life since she was young. I’ve watched her all these years, but she’s a good girl. Optimistic, no matter how the Yu family treated her, she never lost her enthusiasm for life,” Cai Shufang said proudly as she spoke of Yu Anwan.

Wen Jin nodded in agreement, and his lips involuntarily curved into a slight smile.

This was something Wen Jin couldn’t deny.

Yu Anwan was like someone who could maintain her passion no matter what.

Even during the three years when she was neglected by the Wen family, Yu Anwan’s life might not have been easy, considering the challenging personalities in the Wen family.

Wen Zhanming might love Yu Anwan, but that didn’t mean he could protect her at all times.

Moreover, in the Wen family, if one couldn’t fend for themselves, they wouldn’t survive.

Yu Anwan must have faced difficulties, but when you faced Yu Anwan, you couldn’t sense any hurt or suffering.

Wen Jin suddenly understood that this was probably the reason he couldn’t help but keep appearing in front of Yu Anwan, even after three years of marriage.

It wasn’t just because he lusted after her body.

More importantly, her smile seemed to bring the brightest sunshine when you were at your most exhausted.

“If you don’t have such intentions towards Anwan, then I’d like to ask you to let her go,” Cai Shufang concluded her purpose.

She looked at Wen Jin with a serious and stern expression.

Wen Jin lowered his gaze and didn’t immediately answer Cai Shufang’s question.

Cai Shufang wasn’t impatient. She patiently waited.

After a long pause, Wen Jin spoke up voluntarily. “Grandma, Anwan won’t suffer.’

These words were somewhat ambiguous, leaving Cai Shufang unsure of Wen Jin’s thoughts.

Cai Shufang also knew that Wen Jin wouldn’t continue discussing this matter. She sighed quietly, and then her voice gradually sounded, “Wen Jin, have you ever loved Anwan?”

Wen Jin fell silent for a moment.

Cai Shufang nodded and didn’t say anything more.

Wen Jin continued to prepare breakfast, and Cai Shufang turned and walked towards the kitchen’s exit. Coincidentally, she saw Yu Anwan waking up.

Yu Anwan felt a bit awkward when she saw Cai Shufang. She forced a smile and greeted, “Good morning, Grandma.”

“Alright, get up, brush your teeth, and wash your face. I’ll go wake up Xiaobao and Zhanyan,” Cai Shufang said with a warm smile, looking at Yu Anwan affectionately.

“Ah, please sit down. I’ll go call them,” Yu Anwan said quickly as she scratched her messy hair.

Before Cai Shufang could walk into the room, Yu Anwan had already pressed Cai Shufang onto the stool.

Cai Shufang shook her head helplessly and did not force the issue.

Yu Anwan looked around the quiet living room and was momentarily puzzled.

Before she could say anything, Cai Shufang spoke up, “No need to look any further, Wen Jin is in the kitchen. He woke up early this morning to cook. Meanwhile, you’ve been sleeping in.”

Yu Anwan felt a bit speechless and awkward. But in the next moment, she retorted indignantly, “Grandma, I didn’t go looking for Wen Jin.”

These words made Yu Anwan feel a bit guilty.

Cai Shufang didn’t point it out.

Yu Anwan stuck out her tongue and dared not glance toward the kitchen.

Instead, she swiftly made her way to the rooms of Yu Xiaobao and Yu Dabao.

“Da..,” Yu Anwan corrected herself, “Zhanyan, it’s time to get up. Xiaobao, wake up.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Dabao appeared in front of Yu Anwan. He acknowledged her with a grunt and was already neatly dressed. There was no need to worry about him at all.

Yu Xiaobao had tossed and turned late into the night, so when she was awakened, she was still in her sleepwear, her hair a bit disheveled, and she kept her eyes closed in protest.

“I’m so sleepy. I want to sleep..” Yu Xiaobao’s voice carried a hint of crying, and her little face was scrunched up.

Yu Xiaobao had a strong case of morning grogginess, which was quite similar to Yu Anwan.

Yu Anwan had no choice but to try and soothe her. When Yu Dabao was in a good mood, she could help coax Yu Xiaobao, and the little one would quickly calm down in front of him.

Moreover, Yu Xiaobao hadn’t slept well last night, which was partly Yu Anwan’s responsibility.

So, what could she do? She resigned herself to the task of soothing her.

“I want to sleep, I want to sleep..” Yu Xiaobao repeated the same words, not even bothering to open her eyes.

No matter how light Yu Xiaobao was, she had some weight, and her squirming made it even more challenging for Yu Anwan to hold her.

She looked at Yu Dabao, but Yu Dabao heartlessly stated, “Mommy, this is your problem.”

In short, he didn’t want to help with the task.

Yu Anwan felt like crying.

Just then, the weight on her disappeared suddenly. Yu Anwan was taken aback, only then noticing that Wen Jin had quietly approached and already picked up Yu Xiaobao.

Compared to Yu Anwan, who was struggling to keep Yu Xiaobao from falling, Wen Jin appeared much more at ease.

“Xioabao, are you still sleepy?” Wen Jin asked gently. “Daddy will carry you, okay?”

The little one, who had been crying with closed eyes, seemed to suddenly awaken. Her big eyes were misty, with tears still glistening.

However, compared to before, Yu Xiaobao was no longer putting up a fuss..
