Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

At this time, a gentle and kind voice was heard, and several people looked in the direction where the voice came from.

"Oh! It's Ah Qian." She gathered the hair scattered on her shoulders, walked slowly towards the few people with graceful manners, a hint of satisfaction and pleasure towards Zheng Haoqian flashed across her eyes.

"Hello, auntie!" Zheng Haoqian was wearing simple and elegant casual clothes, with a faint smile on his face. He nodded slightly politely and greeted Ji's mother.

Father Ji stood by, and although he remained calm on the surface, he secretly rolled his eyes and muttered to himself: "This kid is really good at pretending."

"Are you the only one here today? Where are the others?" asked Ji's mother, trying to get some information out of Zheng Haoqian.

Just as Zheng Haoqian was about to answer, he saw four elegant men walking in from outside. They were Helian Minxiao and his companions.

"Aunt, long time no see! You really are getting younger and younger." Helian Minxiao's voice was as gentle as jade. He smiled softly and spoke to Ji's mother with praise.

Mother Ji was in a good mood after being praised. Her eyes sparkled with joy and her fair cheeks flushed slightly. "Haha, thank you for the compliment! You guys are really good at talking."

However, Father Ji seemed a little impatient. He said indifferently: "Hey! Don't you have anything to do? Don't you have to take care of the company? Don't you have anything to deal with in Congress?"

There was a hint of reproach in his words, trying to drive away these men who he thought were "an eyesore" so that he could enjoy spending time with his daughter alone.

Upon hearing this, Xin Mujing simply smiled and said, "The company will have its own people to handle it. This is a good opportunity to train them." Lu Nanxu and others also nodded in agreement, their handsome faces full of seriousness and determination.

"Tomorrow is Yanyan's last prenatal checkup." Fu Jingyan interrupted at the right time, with a gentle smile on his lips, as if he had completely ignored the disgust on Ji's father's face.

He continued, "We have to accompany Yanyan. After all, pregnant women are sometimes emotionally unstable. She will feel more at ease with us around."

Upon hearing this, Ji's father frowned slightly and was about to say something else when he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Ji's mother looking at him with a smile on her face, but that smile seemed to carry a bit of unquestionable determination. Ji's father was startled and immediately understood what his wife meant. He had to silently pick up the teacup on the table and pretend to taste the tea to cover up his embarrassment.

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became a little subtle.

Mother Ji stood in front of everyone, her eyes full of love and concern. She opened her red lips slightly, and her voice was soft but firm: "Then you can stay here for one night, and go to the hospital for a prenatal check-up tomorrow morning. There are many rooms at home, so don't worry about not having enough room."

"Then we'd be honored to refuse. Thank you so much for troubling you, aunt." Fu Jingyan raised his lips into a gentle smile, his eyes gleaming with gratitude.

Beside him, Zheng Haoqian's eyes were following Mo Yan beside him. Seeing her yawning constantly, a hint of heartache and helplessness appeared in his eyes.

"Yan Yan, go to bed first so that you will be energetic tomorrow." Zheng Haoqian's voice was low and magnetic, trying to persuade the exhausted Ji Yan.

Ji Yan's eyes were slightly red due to continuous yawning, and she looked even more charming with a bit of moisture.

She shook her head and said stubbornly, "No! I want to stay with you all for a while longer."

Seeing this, Lu Nanxu gently stroked Ji Yan's hair, his eyes full of pampering and care.

"Yan Yan, you are not behaving yourself again. You are obviously very tired, but you are still holding on." There was some blame in his words, but more of it was doting.

"Yan Yan, be good and go to sleep! Your uncle and aunt are here, they will take good care of you. Besides, the prenatal checkup tomorrow is also very important, you need to get enough rest."

After hearing what Lu Nanxu said, Ji Yan frowned, as if she was thinking about something seriously.

Finally, she nodded and agreed to everyone's suggestion. "Okay, I'll go to bed then. Good night, everyone." After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the door with a slightly staggering step.

Mother Ji looked at this scene with mixed feelings. She sighed softly and turned her gaze to the men who were still looking at Ji Yan's back reluctantly, feeling both relieved and helpless.

"You can sleep in the guest room tonight. Uncle Zhou, the housekeeper, will take you there." There was an imperceptible sigh in her words, as if she was also expressing her emotion about her daughter's growth and the friendship between these young people.

"Then we won't bother you, uncle and aunt." Xin Mujing nodded gently, his tone revealing respect and courtesy for the elders. Then, everyone followed the footsteps of the housekeeper Zhou Shu and slowly walked upstairs.

In the stairwell, footsteps and whispers intertwined, and the air was filled with an indescribable warmth and harmony.

……

It was late at night and everything was silent. Only a soft night light in the master bedroom emitted a warm glow, adding a touch of warmth to the quiet night.

Father Ji sat by the bed, his eyes gently following Mother Ji who was busy at the dressing table. She gently untied her hair, carefully removed her jewelry one by one, and the makeup on her face gradually faded under her fingertips, revealing a face that was still gentle and moving even after years of carving.

Father Ji picked up the hot towel beside him and gently handed it to Mother Ji. The two looked at each other and smiled. There was no need to say much. The tacit understanding and affection were self-evident.

"Why didn't you let me speak today?" Father Ji finally spoke, with a bit of dissatisfaction and worry in his tone, "You know I really don't like them."

Mother Ji took the hot towel and gently put it on her face, feeling the warmth, a helpless smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"How old are you and still trying to be competitive? Haven't you seen the generosity they display? Besides, haven't you noticed that the baby has gradually gotten used to getting along with them? It's only because of our relationship that she sometimes seems a little reserved."

"Well, one is fine, but there are five of them at once. But in the end, as long as she is happy, isn't that enough?"

When Mr. Ji heard this, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

Seeing this, Mother Ji put down the hot towel, gently reached out her hand, gently stroked Father Ji's face, and said softly: "Don't worry, from the way they look at the baby and every subtle action they take towards her, I can feel that they really love the baby. In fact, you can feel it too, but you just don't want to admit it."

"The child must eventually walk her own path." Mother Ji continued, her voice full of maternal love and tenacity.

"We can only guard her silently and give her support and courage. I know you are reluctant to let go of your precious daughter whom you raised with great effort, as if she is suddenly going to be snatched away by a group of 'hungry wolves'." When she said this, a hint of nostalgia and attachment flashed in Ji's mother's eyes, but it was soon replaced by a hint of resentment and helplessness.

Father Ji hugged Mother Ji tightly, buried his head in her neck, and murmured, "Yes, time flies so fast. It feels like she was still the little girl who needed us to hold her in our arms yesterday, and now she is about to become someone else's wife. However, seeing her happy is our greatest wish. It's just that this reluctance is really hard..."

The two of them snuggled together like this, and the moonlight outside the window quietly poured into the room, covering this night full of love with a layer of silver veil.
