Hidden Marriage: Spoiled by the Imperial Commander

Nangong Xiaoxue said, "For the Yan family to produce a child as outstanding as Qianyi, it must be due to the good karma accumulated by your ancestors."

The implication was clear; it had little to do with Old Lady Yan.

Old Lady Yan caught the drift and defensively said, "Qianyi is so outstanding because she was well taught by me."

The two women, who had once compared and competed over a man, had never imagined that in their old age they would still be competing over their descendants.

Mu Yunlie sensed the atmosphere turning sour and quickly changed the topic, "The wedding between Qianyi and me should also be scheduled. Do you elders have any thoughts on this matter?"

Mention of the wedding piqued the interest of both Nangong Xiaoxue and Old Lady Yan, and even the usually silent Nangong Jie joined in the discussion with them.

All three shared the same opinions regarding the wedding, finally bringing harmony to the conversation and dissolving the awkwardness.

Yan Qianyi said, "I’d like to wait until the baby is born before we hold the wedding, as I am already starting to show."

The three who had been enthusiastically discussing halted abruptly and all turned to look at Yan Qianyi.

Old Lady Yan said, "If you wear a puffy wedding dress, it will cover your stomach and won’t be noticeable."

Yan Qianyi said, "I also hope my brother can hold my hand and walk me down the aisle, but right now the peace treaty between the Federation Empire and the Morris Empire has not yet been signed, making it inconvenient for my brother to come to the Federation Empire."

Normally, it is the father who walks his daughter down the aisle and hands her over to the groom.
