Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: Award a Large Flat Apartment

After dinner.

Aunt Wang greeted the two of them and then left.

Inside the house.

Tang Yuxin was washing the dishes in the kitchen.

Xiao Fei seized the opportunity to walk in and said to her, "Honey, how about I do the washing instead?"

When she heard the word "Honey," Tang Yuxin's body stiffened, and the dishes in her hands almost slipped to the floor.

"No... no need."

Tang Yuxin answered, a little flustered.

Hmm, not bad.

She didn't outright reject the title "Honey."

Looks like I can take things a step further.

Xiao Fei leaned in and gently hugged Tang Yuxin's waist from behind.

"Honey~"

Xiao Fei's deep voice echoed softly in Tang Yuxin's ear.

Tang Yuxin shivered, feeling as though her heart was about to leap out of her throat.

What on earth is this guy planning now?

Xiao Fei spoke softly, "When we have time, let's go handle the baby's birth certificate together, okay?"

"Mhm!"

Tang Yuxin nodded obediently.

She hadn't expected that, holding her like this, he'd only talk about something like this?

Still, the baby's birth certificate is indeed an urgent matter.

Right now, the baby only has a temporary medical certificate, and the official birth certificate hasn't been processed yet.

Originally, Tang Yuxin had been worried about this issue.

Even though she could go handle the birth certificate on her own,

Tang Yuxin didn't want the section for the father on the form to be left blank.

She had already stopped hoping, planning to raise all three babies on her own.

But Xiao Fei's appearance had rekindled a glimmer of hope.

Seeing Tang Yuxin agree, Xiao Fei continued, "Besides the birth certificate, there's also the matter of registering the baby with the household."

When Xiao Fei mentioned household registration, Tang Yuxin immediately furrowed her brow.

"In a couple of days, I plan to tell my parents about our situation. What about you?"

"I..."

Tang Yuxin looked worried.

The relationship between her and Xiao Fei was too strange.

Would Xiao Fei's parents actually accept someone like her?

Besides, her relationship with her own parents had long since soured.

"Don't worry, my parents are very easy-going."

"They've been wanting me to get married and give them grandchildren to dote on for a long time."

"But... your parents, are they easy to deal with?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fei's question, Tang Yuxin lowered her head.

She didn't know how to explain to him.

Seeing this, Xiao Fei began to piece things together.

Tang Yuxin must have had a falling-out with her parents over something.

Otherwise, how could she be living alone in a rented apartment right after childbirth?

"A year ago, when my parents found out I was unexpectedly pregnant, we had a major argument."

"I ran away from home and gave birth to the three babies on my own."

As she spoke, Tang Yuxin's tears started streaming down her cheeks.

The sight made Xiao Fei's heart ache terribly.

He opened his arms and hugged Tang Yuxin tightly from behind, gently wiping away her tears.

"I'm sorry for all the hardships you've been through."

"But rest assured, with me here, no matter how dissatisfied your parents might be with me, I'll deal with it."

Tang Yuxin shook her head and said, "No, it's not your fault. At the time, you didn't know about it either..."

Hearing this, Xiao Fei found it puzzling.

Normally, wouldn't a woman opt to terminate a pregnancy after an unintentional fling with a stranger?

Why did Tang Yuxin decide to keep the children?

Perhaps sensing Xiao Fei's doubt, Tang Yuxin began to explain slowly:

"When I found out I was pregnant, I went to the hospital for a checkup."

"The doctor told me I had a small cervix, so getting pregnant wasn't easy. If I terminated the pregnancy, I might never conceive again."

"So I chose to keep the children..."

Upon hearing Tang Yuxin's explanation, Xiao Fei suddenly understood.

He turned and gently kissed Tang Yuxin's lips, softly murmuring:

"Honey, you've been through so much."

After saying that, Xiao Fei couldn't help but feel proud.

"You know, I really must be amazing. It wasn't easy for you to conceive, yet I managed to help you have three at once."

"You shameless rascal!"

Tang Yuxin blushed furiously and pinched Xiao Fei hard.

"Can't you see I'm feeling sad right now?"

Xiao Fei's teasing completely diverted Tang Yuxin from her sadness.

...

The two quickly finished washing the dishes.

Then they returned to the living room and gathered around the three babies.

"Honey, it's still early. How about we drive the babies to the nearby park for a stroll?"

"Let them get some fresh air and sunlight…"

Xiao Fei glanced out the window. The sun hadn't fully set yet.

The golden hues of twilight bathed the city, creating a picturesque scene.

It looked like a paradise on earth.

Faced with Xiao Fei's proposal, Tang Yuxin nodded in agreement.

The babies were already two months old and could now enjoy some fresh air outdoors.

So, the two tidied up, packed the stroller, and headed downstairs.

"This is..."

"The new car you bought?"

Once downstairs, Tang Yuxin was stunned at the sight of the brand-new Land Rover Defender.

Even though she knew Xiao Fei had bought a luxury car worth over a million,

seeing it in person still shocked her.

Xiao Fei carefully placed the three babies in their car seats, folded the stroller, and stored it in the trunk.

Then he turned around, hugged Tang Yuxin, and said with a smile:

"This car isn't just mine—it's yours too."

Tang Yuxin felt her cheeks flush.

Looking into Xiao Fei's gentle eyes, Tang Yuxin felt incredibly happy.

Just then, someone walked over from a distance.

Tang Yuxin instinctively pushed Xiao Fei away and quickly said, "Let's... we should get in the car."

Xiao Fei chuckled softly without saying much.

Once they got in the car.

Xiao Fei started the vehicle and gently pressed the gas pedal.

With three babies onboard, Xiao Fei drove with utmost caution.

As they cruised down the street, he turned on the child safety lock and played some soothing classical music through the car's audio system.

The babies in the backseat curiously looked around.

Everything outside was so new and exciting to them.

Sitting in the front passenger seat, Tang Yuxin turned to check on the babies and confirmed they were perfectly fine.

They even seemed to enjoy the car ride.

She then turned back to Xiao Fei, who was focused on driving.

This man…

He's becoming more and more handsome!

After spending the past few days together, Tang Yuxin had completely let down her guard.

Now, she truly liked Xiao Fei.

If he hadn't showed up,

she would still be taking three transfers on the subway to work every day.

Struggling alone to raise three babies, living in a shabby rented apartment.

But with Xiao Fei's arrival, both her and the babies' living conditions had completely transformed.

Tang Yuxin felt incredibly fortunate.

To have someone as exceptional as him in her life.

"Thank you..."

"Hm?"

Xiao Fei turned his head in puzzlement.

"It's nothing..."

Tang Yuxin quickly waved her hand dismissively.

Xiao Fei focused back on driving without thinking too much about what Tang Yuxin had intended to say.

Just then, a system voice suddenly chimed in.
