Watching her shy demeanor, Chu Lian laughed and said, "Our child is protesting. He wants to eat. Just wait, I'll have them bring in the food right now."
Chu Lian then walked to the door, opened it, and instructed the servants to prepare the meal.
Hearing Chu Lian's words "our child," Wang Xiangxiang felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart. If only the child were his, what a happy family they would have been, but unfortunately, that was not the case.
After Chu Lian returned, he had Wang Xiangxiang sit at the table. He grabbed a handful of peanuts from the table and, while peeling them, said, "You wait, I'll peel some peanuts for you first. Have these as a little nibble."
Soon enough, a peanut was peeled, and Chu Lian held it out to Wang Xiangxiang, saying, "Open your mouth."
