Chapter 402: Chapter 402: Did Mommy Get Angry?

For several days in a row, when Zhu Qianying came home from work, a hot meal was waiting for her, and the father and son were getting along more in sync. When she came home, one would take her bag, and the other would always bring her slippers. One handed her a cup of water, while the other would give her a back rub.

In just a few days, Zhu Qianying was under the illusion that it was her, the little boy, and Young Master Yan who were supposed to be like this: a harmonious and loving family of three.

But the reality was not!

Every night before she went to bed, she had to mentally repeat these words multiple times to refrain herself from thinking about the distant future.

Once, her future was filled with thoughts of Young Master Yan, but she finally expelled him from her plans.

She never planned to include him again.

Her future, with her son, her mother, and her sister, was enough.

She was not unaware that her outlook toward emotions was pessimistic.

But after seeing her mother’s waiting for twenty years, she dared not hold out too much hope for emotions.

She also understood that Young Master Yan was different from the jerk Zhu Zhizhou.

But even so, Young Master Yan still put her through pain and hopelessness similar to what her mother experienced over twenty years, all within just ten-plus days.

Now, she was doing fine and didn’t need to risk herself again by giving her heart and future to the same person.

However, she never revealed any of these thoughts in front of her son.

It was clear to her that her son was happier these past few days than ever before. Therefore, she cooperated with Young Master Yan’s act to give their son some beautiful and happy memories.

Anyway, once the vacation was over and they returned to L City, everything would go back to normal.

...

Zhu Qianying was busy for several days and had managed most of her work. On the last working day, Young Master Yan came to the jewelry store with their son early in the afternoon to wait for her because they had agreed to visit the Lei Family together.

Mr. and Mrs. Lei’s children were studying in other cities and were rarely home. Therefore, they were thrilled to see the playful little boy.

Overnight, the sweet-talking, handsome, and cute little boy captured Mr. and Mrs. Lei’s hearts. Regardless of whether Zhu Qianying and Young Master Yan agreed, they coaxed the little boy into accepting them as his godparents.

Zhu Qianying didn’t know her son had accepted Mr. and Mrs. Lei as his godparents until she noticed the expensive nephrite jade pendant around his neck.

In front of Mr. and Mrs. Lei, Zhu Qianying tried to refuse, but they insisted that the jade pendant was meant for their godson.

Zhu Qianying could only keep quiet at the moment, but once they were in the car, she could not help but lecture her son.

"Baby boy, haven’t mommy told you not to accept gifts from others casually?"

The little boy knew that his models were expensive, but he didn’t know that the jade pendant around his neck was worth ten warship models.

"Godfather said it’s just a common pendant, not expensive at all, similar to the badge on their dog’s collar," the little boy explained convincingly.

Star also had a badge around his neck, but it was the kind of ordinary dog badge worth dozens of yuan in a pet shop, so the little boy must have thought the dog badge in Mr. Lei’s family costs about the same.

But the badge on the hunting dog’s collar in Mr. Lei’s house, if Zhu Qianying was not mistaken, should be an expensive ancient bone carving, its value comparable to the jade pendant Mr. Lei gave to her son!

Seeing Zhu Qianying sinking into deep thought, the little boy quickly added.

"I remember what mommy said. We should not take things from others without reason. I gave a military medal that great-grandfather had given me to godfather. He liked it!"

Zhu Qianying had no choice but to stop lecturing her son because each of the military medals her father-in-law had given had special meaning and historical significance. Even if the current prices weren’t as high as the jade pendant’s, they definitely had more collectible value in the long run.

Young Master Yan listened to their conversation quietly at first, but then he defended his son.

"Ying’er, you can’t blame the little boy for this. He and Mr. Lei and Mrs. Lei have a special connection. There’s no objection to calling them his godparents. As for the jade pendant, I’ll have plenty of opportunities to return the favor in the future. Don’t worry about it."

Of course, Zhu Qianying understood the significance of her son’s relationship with Mr. and Mrs. Lei. Considering someone as powerful as Young Master Yan showed respect to the couple in M country, it was clear how much influence the couple had there.

In the past, Zhu Qianying had never imagined she would have any dealings with such powerful individuals.

But now, her son was the godson of the couple because of Young Master Yan.

Not to mention that when they were in Capital City, high-ranking officials and their wives, whom she had seen only on television, respectfully referred to her as Mrs. Yan and directly referred to her son as the young prince...

At that time, Zhu Qianying was utterly shocked. Her reaction was probably much stronger than it was now. But everyone in Yan Family seemed accustomed to such forms of address, and no one raised any objections.

It was only later that Zhu Qianying learned from Young Master Yan that he had also been called "young prince" since childhood!

No wonder Young Master Yan was so arrogant, having been served and worshipped like a young master from childhood by such powerful people, could he have been humble and not overbearing?

The fortunate thing was that, while her silly son physically and mentally resembled his father, his character was more similar to hers.

It was over ten o’clock when they left Mr. Lei’s house. Afraid that the mother and son might be tired, Young Master Yan had booked a hotel nearby in advance. After leaving Mr. Lei’s house, the driver took them directly to the hotel to rest.

Once they returned to the hotel, they each retired to their own rooms.

The little boy had been sleeping with his father these past few days. Young Master Yan had him take a bath first then he took his afterward.

Normally, the little boy would already be asleep at this time, but he was sprawled out on the bed, deep in thought.

Seeing his father come out, instead of waiting for his father to ask, he asked first, "Daddy, did I upset mommy?"

The little boy was very thoughtful. When Zhu Qianying was talking to him, he felt as if he had done something wrong.

Young Master Yan climbed onto the bed and sat cross-legged next to him, stroking his head and comforting him.

"Baby boy, you didn’t do anything wrong. However, in the future, it’s best to first ask for daddy and mommy’s opinion on such matters, understand?"
