Chapter 726 They Look Good Together

“Mom, she gave birth and raised the children herself.” From the corner of his eye, Fu Qingli took a glance at the empty road. Although he was expressionless, his eyes reflected a rush of emotions. “I won’t fight for the children’s custody, but she agrees not to stop us from seeing the kids.”

This was the outcome of the negotiation. That woman was a tough nut to crack. She was cocky and refused to yield to terms. It was not like Fu Qingli could just grab the children and make a run for it.

Between the two children, Guoguo was nice while Lu Zhen saw him as the enemy. Should Fu Qingli press on the woman with a strong hand to get custody of the kids, the kids would only hate him. What was the point?

“That’s good.” Fu Handing supported Fu Qingli’s decision.

The girl from the Lu family may appear mild-mannered, but there was an unyielding stubbornness in her blood. She clearly had a mind of her own.

It would be great if she ended up with Qingli in the future. If it was not meant to be, the Fu family hoped to stay in touch with the children so as not to cut family ties.

“So long as you’re sure about it.” Although Shangguan Yanqiu had been pining for grandchildren, she never put pressure on Fu Qingli. Fu Qingli could make his own choices, be it dating or getting married.

The two babies were adorable, and she loved their company. However, as a mother who had once lost a child, she knew the pain all too well. Shangguan Yanqiu would never demand the girl from the Lu family to hand them the children, nor would she allow her son to do so.

Qingli must have thought about the same. He was familiar with the pain and suffering of losing loved ones. Otherwise, he had a million ways to take back the children.

Following in the back, Fu Qingye was without a word.

Fu Qingxuan drew near Fu Qingye and whispered, “Qingli disapproves of Xixi getting her marriage license so soon because she’s young. Look at him now. He had kids at nineteen, and Lu Li was eighteen when she was pregnant.”

“Oh, shut up!” Fu Qingye helplessly glared at Fu Qingxuan. What did that have to do with anything? It was not the same situation for Qingli and Xixi.

The two kids were adorable, but Fu Qingye wondered if the young lady of the Lu family was Qingli’s type. Qingli never had a girlfriend, and they never had conversations about girls either.

Nevertheless, Fu Qingye personally had a good impression of the young lady of the Lu family. She was beautiful and deserved the spot as his sister-in-law.

Still, she possibly had a boyfriend. Since the man who came to pick up the mother and children knew Li Yuan, it was plain to see that he was no ordinary person. Qingli might not stand a chance.

Shen Xi and Li Yuan took a stroll together while chatting about Su Jingyan.

Li Yuan said, “He’s the youngest master of the Su family. I met him once, so I don’t have a clear idea of his character. I’ll get Kun Lun to look into this for you. Do you want to check out Ms. Lu as well?”

Shen Xi shook her head. “Don’t bother. Why should I do a background check on them?”

That was Fu Qingli’s personal matter. Whether or not he be together with Lu Li or whoever Lu Li dated was their privacy. Shen Xi was merely a bystander.

“We won’t investigate then.” Li Yuan smiled. He gently brushed off the snow all over Shen Xi before stepping foot into the house.

Shen Zhangqing and Yun Jinping stopped in motion as they stared at the couple at the door with bitterness in their eyes but more so with relief and blessing.

Too much had happened today. The Fu family came because of Shen Xi’s marriage registration, but Fu Qingli’s matter drew an equal amount of attention. It did take a lot of the pressure off of Shen Xi, so the family was not only focused on her.

Although the house was full, the air was somewhat soundless.

Fu Handing and Shangguan Yanqiu called Fu Qingli to the study for a private talk. They had to discuss moving forward on the matter.

Seeing that it was late, Yun Jinping turned to Li Yuan. “Lil’ Li, you should go back and get some rest with Qingye and Qingxuan.”

Since they did not have enough rooms for everyone, Qingye and Qingxuan were to stay at Li Yuan’s place. Li Yuan took them next door.

Fu Qingxuan brought along Toffeecito.

Suddenly, the living room felt empty. Ruan Sisi had been to the Shen family’s home several times and spent the night as well, but she never had the luxury of sharing a room with Shen Xi. She was always paired with Song Wenye in the past. It was fair to say that she was thrilled by the opportunity this time. “Xixi! Xixi! I drew the bath. Come in for a soak.” Shen Xi frowned at the twinkle in Ruan Sisi’s eyes. “Why are you excited about me taking a bath?” “Isn’t there a bathtub and shower in the bathroom? I’ll use the shower. We can enjoy the bath together.” Ruan Sisi had never taken a bath with anyone else. Lil’ Ye bathed with Xixi the last time she was in. Needless to say, Ruan Sisi was jealous.

Shen Xi uttered, “I’m not used to bathing with other people.” Having been shot down, Ruan Sisi was down in the dumps. She snuffled and sulkily murmured, “Xixi, you go first then.”

Shen Xi took her pajamas and sighed at Ruan Sisi singing the blues. “Come on.”

Back to her enthusiastic self, Ruan Sisi grabbed her pajamas and escorted Shen Xi ahead. “After

you.”

Shen Xi, “…”

While in the bath, Ruan Sisi could not stop talking. “Xixi, it’s amazing that your family has sets of twins. Mama Fu and Li Jingran, you and Young Master Qingxuan, and now Young Master Qingli has twins too. I’m sure you’d have twins with Li Yuan!”

Ruan Sisi was happy just thinking about it. Kids were enough as they were but giving birth to a pair of a boy and a girl made it even better. Oh, the joy!

Getting comfortable in the bath, Shen Xi moaned, “How would I know?”

Still, she did have the genes to birth twins.

“That’s true, but I think that you’d definitely have twins.” Ruan Sisi nodded in certainty. With her eyes lighting up, she was ready to get down to business. “Have you… with Li Yuan?”

“No!” Shen Xi blurted out loud.

Clearing her throat, Ruan Sisi shiftily gazed at Shen Xi and knew better than to continue the conversation. The steam in the bathroom hid any chances of Xixi blushing. Ruan Sisi then turned her attention to Fu Qingli. “Xixi, I think Ms. Lu is nice. Will Young Master Qingli woo her? What are the chances of them remarrying? I feel bad for the children.”

“How can they remarry without a first marriage?” Shen Xi corrected her. “I mean finding their own partners.” Ruan Sisi reworded and lamented. “It’d be great if they could be together. I think they look good together.”
