SWNOVELS Chapter 158 - How Nice Would It be If It Was Their Daughter
With a smile, she glanced around and remarked, “It's strange. My target was just here a moment ago. Suddenly, they vanished into thin air.”
After a brief trip to the restroom, Huo Qingyue returned only to find Lee Shuyuan, prompting him to retreat to a corner in fear, hesitant to reveal himself. contemporary romance
Having grown up under the care of Lee Shuyuan, who was his brother Chiang Luyou's mother, Huo Qingyue recognized her instantly.
Aware of her presence, he dared not emerge, fearing exposure if spotted by Lee Shuyuan, thus opting to remain concealed in the corner.
Following a brief exchange between Lee Shuyuan and Gu Yuehuan, Chiang Daying arrived. Lee Shuyuan sought refuge with him, opting to spend the night in a quieter room devoid of the clamor of children.
Observing the disturbance caused by the children in the soft bedroom, Chiang Daying sought assistance from a flight attendant to relocate them. Unaware of their arrival in the room, the children were swiftly escorted away.
Upon Chiang Daying's arrival, Lee Shuyuan eagerly introduced him, clasping his hand, “Darling, allow me to introduce you. Isn't this little girl adorable? Her name is Gu Yuehuan.”
Chiang Daying regarded Gu Yuehuan with a solemn expression, offering a nod in acknowledgment, a gesture of courtesy.
Rising to greet him, Gu Yuehuan politely addressed him, “Hello, uncle.”
Chiang Daying responded briefly before ushering Lee Shuyuan away, “Wife, the soft bedroom is now peaceful. Let's return.” Leading her away, he indicated it was time to leave.
Bid farewell by Lee Shuyuan, Gu Yuehuan received a promise of a meal invitation should she ever visit the northern city in the future.
Gu Yuehuan nodded with a smile, indicating her agreement.
She observed their departure quietly.
Walking alongside Chiang Daying, Lee Shuyuan eagerly remarked, “Dear, did you see that young girl earlier? Isn't she as adorable as I described? She's truly lovely. I can't help but wonder, if we had a daughter, would she have been as charming as her? It's a shame we never had a daughter.”
Upon hearing this, Chiang Daying responded in a conciliatory tone, “If you truly desire a daughter, we can consider having one when we return.”
Lee Shuyuan's remark was made in jest, not expecting such a serious response from Chiang Daying. With them both being of a certain age and still on the train, she playfully shoved him upon hearing his words. “You old flirt. Can't you see how old we are? How could we possibly have a child at this age?”
Chiang Daying embraced her tenderly upon hearing her reaction, guiding her back to the cozy bedroom. “Perhaps it's not meant to be. If you truly desire a daughter… when we return, we could consider adopting a goddaughter. Despite our age, I still feel there might be a chance for us.”
“Let's forget about it. At our age, it's not unreasonable to wish for one. Our sons could also do it. It's just that the girl we saw earlier was exceptionally endearing. I can't quite put my finger on it. It's probably my longing for a daughter speaking.”
Lee Shuyuan's desire for a daughter likely stemmed from raising two sons.
Initially considering another child after her second son, Lee Shuyuan's weakened health following childbirth precluded further pregnancies. Over the years, she resigned herself to this reality.
Despite the passage of time, she couldn't shake the feeling that the young girl she saw was remarkably similar to what she envisioned for her daughter.
How wonderful it would be if she were her own daughter. Such a thought could bring her joy even in her dreams.
