Super Soldier in the City

Half an hour later, Lin Qiong’s family of three along with her future son-in-law Li Yifei, all sat on the couch. Lin Qiong nestled beside Li Yifei, holding onto his arm with both hands, her face still stained with fresh tears, sobbing with grievance.

Lin Qiong’s parents, however, had quite unpleasant expressions on their faces. It was one thing for their daughter to cohabit with a man before marriage—after all, that’s what young people do these days—but they hadn’t expected her to end up pregnant and playing a game of shotgun marriage, which was something Lin Qiong’s somewhat traditional parents found hard to accept.

But after half an hour of venting, Lin Qiong’s parents had calmed down somewhat. It was Lin Qiong’s mother who first sighed and said, "Well, since things have come to this, we won’t criticize you any further."

Lin Qiong immediately asked with surprise, "Mom, are you really agreeing?"

Lin Qiong’s mother said irritably, "What else can I do if I don’t agree? You already have a child, and if I don’t agree, wouldn’t that mean my grandchild would be born fatherless?"

Lin Qiong immediately jumped up and sat next to her mother, startling her mother enough to hurriedly hold her down and anxiously say, "Be careful, be careful. You’ve just gotten pregnant, and it’s not very stable yet. You can’t be careless at this time, or it could easily lead to a miscarriage."

Lin Qiong stuck out her tongue and said, "I’ll be careful."

"Look at you, you’re about to be a mother, yet you still act like a child. How are you going to take care of a child in the future?"

Li Yifei immediately stated, "Uncle, Auntie, you can rest assured, I will definitely take good care of Qiongqiong and the child."

Lin Qiong’s mother immediately said, "What do you know about caring for a child? When the child is born, we will help you take care of them. That way, it won’t affect your work, and it’s perfect since we old folks are rather free now. When the time comes, we can take an extended leave and focus on taking care of my grandchild."
